Episode 16 - So You Think You're Rational?

Have people ever seemed to act inconsistently to you? Why do you think people are incredibly open and flexible one day, but very focused and structured the next? Why do you think some people are infuriated by things that seem insignificant to you?

This episode podcast explores two key systems in our brain: (un)creatively named System I and System II.

By understanding how these systems work together can provide helpful insight into understanding why we make decisions and act in the ways we do.
