In this episode, hosts Marian Hill and Mary O'Neill converse with Dr. Martin Reagan, a senior lecturer at Queen's University Belfast School of Law, to explore the intricate relationship between psychology, emotion, and the law.

Dr. Reagan discusses his journey from psychology to studying law and highlights how both fields fundamentally involve human behavior. He illustrates the substantive influence of emotion within legal contexts, such as jury reactions and witness testimonies, and advocates for understanding emotional intelligence in legal professionals. The conversation also covers the reliability of eyewitness testimonies, the influence of high-profile cases on public perception, and the potential impact of emotions on judicial behavior.
