The Bullshit Propaganda

Season 3 Ep 4 People don't change. Or do they?


Listen Later

In this week's episode, we call bullshit on the saying that 'People don't change'. Unlike tigers, we can definitely change our proverbial stripes, and the episode dives into the science that supports this as well. We talk about neuroplasticity, what makes people change, the way to make lasting changes in who we are, how Hogwart's house system might be slightly problematic (sorry but not sorry JK Rowling), and more. This was another solo episode with just your host, Subashini Raj, and may have gone a little rambly as usual, but I hope you enjoy listening to it. 

As always, please send us your feedback, comments, and suggestions for future episodes to @thebullshitpropaganda_podcast on Instagram.
