Humans have the unique ability to coordinate behavior, economic exchange, political action, and social relationships across immense distances and times. To keep this level of coordination running smoothly, we often look to others as comparison standards for how to behave, think, and feel.

In todays episode, Jake and Elliot dive deep on the topic of comparisons, especially during this COVID pandemic. They discuss how to be aware of the language we use and the comparisons we create in our daily lives and in society.
