Today’s guest is Dr. Christopher Chabris. We talked about his new book (with Daniel Simons), “Nobody’s Fool.”



Chris is a cognitive scientist. His research in this field focuses on attention, decision-making, collective intelligence, cognitive ability, and behavioral genetics.



Outside of the his academic community, he is a known chess master, and best known for his book (written with Daniel Simons), The Invisible Gorilla. Chabris and Simons won an Ig Nobel Prize for their Invisible Gorilla experiment, from which the book idea stemmed.



The two have now published a new book, “Nobody’s Fool,” about how our cognitive tendencies and habits and the information we find appealing can be used against us, even though most of the time they’re really effective.



In all the movies and podcasts and articles and so on about scams, they talk about what the con artists did, how they were caught, how the victims felt about it, and what the victims did about it. But none of them really explain why people keep falling for these scams.



Nobody’s Fool takes a cognitive science approach to doing just that. It is now available in bookstores everywhere, on Amazon, and at their publisher's web site (links below).

Welcome to episode 82! I
t's been a while (sorry!)
Today I spoke with Sarah Ward M.S., CCC/SLP and Co-Director of Cognitive Connections, LLP. We discussed strategies that she has developed-- for both children and adults-- to sharpen their executive functioning skills to enhance learning and life.
Examples of the skills that Sarah works with people to enhance:
planning and organization  concentrating and managing mental focus  analyzing and processing information  managing emotions and behavior   remembering details managing time  multitasking solving problems AND MORE!
We also discussed the limitations of diagnoses as well as the overuse of the term "motivation". And many more topics.
I hope that the discussion provides you with value, including practical examples to use on your own, or as instruction and help for others you care for.

Welcome to episode 81!
Today I spoke with journalist, podcaster, and author David McRaney about his new book, "How Minds Change".
We discussed his interviews with and research on cult members, conspiracy theorists, and political activists, from Westboro Baptist Church picketers to LGBTQ campaigners in California – that ultimately challenges us to question our own motives and beliefs.
In an age of dangerous conspiratorial thinking, can we rise to the occasion? Let’s get into it. Please enjoy this interview with David McRaney.
