Many birds see colors you can’t see. Dogs smell things you can’t even imagine. Some animals can sense the magnetic fields of the earth - yet we couldn't possibly do that. These are a few of the fascinating ways that other creatures perceive the world differently than humans. And believe me, it gets even more interesting. Joining me to explain is Ed Yong, a Pulitzer prize winning science journalist, staff member at The Atlantic and author of the book An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden World Around Us (https://amzn.to/41vZ2Qa).

It seems we are obsessed with productivity. It’s all about getting more things done faster and more efficiently. And when you don’t get everything done you hoped to, you feel guilty – as if you failed. Well, hang on a second. Maybe what you really need to do is stop obsessing about being productive and enjoy living your life instead. By doing that, you may be even more productive! That is what I discuss with Madeline Dore. She is host of the podcast Routines and Ruts and author of the book I Didn’t Do That Thing Today: Letting Go of Productivity Guilt (https://amzn.to/3ILawYE).

Have you ever brought your own snacks to the movie theater because the snacks they offer are so expensive? Well, let’s talk about that. Is it right to do that?
