  • Why You So Liddat #4 - Teen Brain

    Why You So Liddat is a show that explores the mind, our behaviour, and why we are the way we are. Teens are impulsive, reckless, and bad at making the right decisions but are they really? Dan Romer from the University of Pennsylvania argues that that's not true. In today's episode, he helps us understand what's happening in the minds of teenagers and makes the case that we should view them as explorers instead.

  • Are Women Really Bad Drivers?

    Fact and objectivity have long been heralded as the bedrock of good science. And when it comes to gender differences, countless studies in biology and evolution have been conducted to measure the differences that prove which gender is more physically and intellectually superior. However in her book Inferior, science journalist Angela Saini explores the obvious biases that exist in science, some of which have perpetuated the greatest gender stereotypes that we hold today.

    Car thefts and terrorist acts using vehicles are among the vehicle security issues that we currently face. But as we transition toward connected cars and autonomous vehicles, we need to anticipate new security problems - it sounds all too likely that a hacker could drive a targeted individual's autonomous car into a fatal crash. Ezra Zaid talks to Mike Briggs, CEO of Vehicle Security Solutions Tomorrow (VSST), to discuss some of these issues.

  • Honour Killings In Pakistan

    Last year, the Pakistani social media celebrity Qandeel Baloch was murdered by her own brother for posting allegedly controversial photos of herself online. After Qandeel's high-profile murder in July 2016, the Pakistani government passed new anti honour-killing laws. But such cases of homicide in Pakistan, made in the name of preserving honour, are still rife - at least 280 cases were recorded by the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan from October 2016 to June this year. We talk about this issue with Dr. Nadia Agha, Director of the Institute of Gender Studies at Shah Abdul Latif University.
