Episode description

Ever wondered why people believe in the craziest pseudoscience? We did too, so we got some answers! Our podcast guest this week, Itamar Shatz, is a PhD student at Cambridge University studying philosophy. He explains to us about some of the different types of cognitive biases that we face daily and what we can do to communicate more effectively. I don't want to give too much away because this episode is super interesting!
