Here's the final interview of the year! My guest for this one is Josh Turknett, author of the fantastic book 'The Laws of Brainjo - The Art & Science of Molding a Musical Mind’.

Josh's book is all about how our brains work and, specifically, what that means for learning to play an instrument (any instrument, not just banjo). It's crammed with interesting stuff but, most importantly, with practical advice on what ewe should do when we practice.

Josh covers how we can train our brains to learn a new skill, why how we practice matters just as much as how much we practice and, crucially, what the ideal length of a practice session should be (I think you'll like the answer!)

Enjoy!
