Fantastic.
Professor Dr. Humanitarian Sapolsky has written and spoken more towards making me a more compassionate human than any religious text or organization in my 70 plus years. Thank you & Offspring & Mommy.
I started reading Dr. Sapolsky’s books and listening to his podcast midway through my psychology degree. They have helped me so much in directing my professional future toward neuropsychology. Every time I hear the little opening jingle, I am immersed in that nerdy happiness of learning something new and changing the way I see reality!
It’s such a privilege to be able to hear such a knowledgeable and authoritative figure, and for free. Podcast full of ideas, information. Highly recommend it.
Love from Italy.
Thanks for this!
