Episode description

Kindness Matters - or does it? 

In a country divided by everything from political parties to women's rights, and vaccinations - it's easy to find someone who doesn't see the world the way you do. What isn't so easy is showing them kindness. 

But why? Why is it so difficult to be kind and caring to people who don't share our values? Our opinions?

In this episode, we discuss the science of caring - why we care about the people we do and why caring for others is so difficult - and the art of building bridges.
