Episode description

In 2010 a plane crashed in the DRC, Africa. Investigators couldn’t figure out the cause. It wasn’t mechanical, it wasn’t a technical error. No. It was human instinct. In this episode, you’ll hear Laura Osborne and Alex Chesterfield, authors of Poles Apart, explain why we form groups, how these groups affect our decision making and why following the herd caused a plane to crash.
