Yes, I can definitely say that this is not only an interesting podcast talking about all things in the brain, whether it’s mental health or ways to improve your mind. But it does also have a fun and engaging spin and not just facts, these two combine well and create a fantastic podcast. Highly recommend especially since the host Jasmine B. MacDonald is great at keeping the podcast fresh but familiar at the same time. In other words this is a great podcast that is worth your time.

Honestly one of the best interviewers I’ve had the honour of talking with. Dr MacDonald knew her stuff and asked questions that really fleshed the topic and the issues out.

A great show for anyone who wants to better understand human experience and the people behind the research. It’s one of my go-to podcasts when I want to learn something new without feeling like I’m in a lecture, although I still end up with a bunch of notes or books to check out. Love it!
