Synopsis: This week on “Learn Me Something,” Aaron and Rich delve into what phobias are, how they’re developed, and the scientific research behind how they can be embedded in our genes. The fact is, many of us have strong, even uncontrollable fear reactions to harmless (or just slightly threatening) things. These reactions are uncomfortable and may even disrupt our lives. These reactions are called phobias.
