Go Fact Yourself

Ep 5 Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone - Infested!


Listen Later

Episode 5: Infested! Paula investigates two household pests that have been plaguing her: Houseflies and late-night TV ads. First, applied social psychologist Dr. Gina Pingatore helps unravel how advertisers make us buy things we don’t want, and why the color red makes us hungry. Then - Will Paula ever get to enjoy a nectarine that some backyard pest hasn’t eaten first? Jordan Leachof UnBugMe Pest Control has the answers. Also, some early entries in our Theme Song Contest - including some EDM from Chile (yes, really).
