- Fascinating insights into human behavior
The podcast is always thought-provoking and practical. I especially enjoyed the episode with David Matsumoto on how facial expressions reveal underlying emotions and decision-making cues - it was eye-opening. Every conversation deepens my understanding of human behavior in both everyday and high-stakes situations. Highly recommend!
