  • An Important Podcast/An Important Topic

    If the spoke word is supposed to lead to more careful and mindful thinking, then this is the podcast that has achieved that objective. My spouse and I have listened to it thrice, and still we know that we are not fully comprehending ALL the major points. We are now fans of this podcasts (just subscribed) and Ellen Langer (bought her books yesterday)!
