    Strong, supportive relationships are key to our mental and even physical health. But what are the keys to a healthy, loving relationship? John Gottman, PhD, and Julie Schwartz Gottman, PhD, talk about why it’s so important to pay attention to your partner’s “bids for connection,” how to have productive rather than destructive fights, whether any couple can learn to communicate better, and why it’s a myth that you should never go to bed angry.

    “Birdbrain” may be an insult, but birds are far smarter than they’re often given credit for. Irene Pepperberg, PhD, talks about her five decades of research with gray parrots, how she teaches parrots to communicate with English words, how birds’ mathematical and other abilities compare with young children, how the field of animal cognition has evolved over the decades and what it can teach us about intelligence in general.

Actual experts sharing secrets of the mind

And a world filled with tons of bad advice tik toks and fluff articles. this podcast is a shining beacon of actual knowledge. I've been an avid fan of psychology for 17 years and I wish something this good existed when I was a teenager.

The host does a great job of asking the questions you would want answers to. And they have such a wonderfully wide variety of guests that I've learned about things I didn't even know to ask questions about. If you are a fan of psychology, actual data, or just want to know more about why you do what you do, and how to proceed in the world and know everyone better. Then this is a must listen podcast!

LOVE THIS PODCAST!!!!

I absolutely love this podcast and listen every week. They present the latest research on so many topics, from how to build successful teams to getting along with your siblings to leading a meaningful life and a million other topics explaining why we do the things we do. The best part is that every episode is based on actual science instead of most other podcasts that are just two people giving their personal opinions. Worth a listen! There’s definitely an episode about something you’ve wondered about in your life…
