Episode description
Is procrastination the same everywhere? A recent email from a listener (check out her blog at incurable-hippie) provided an example of two cultures (the Britsh and the French) where it seems to differ.

It's a wide-ranging discussion of what words mean in relation to psychological constructs across cultures and time.
