In this episode, Karthik discusses both the emotion and the science behind Nostalgia, with one of its biggest practitioners - Hari Krishnan. Hari is an artist, meme-maker, life coach and also an adman. Hari is a unique commentator of popular culture, in the way he uses real life memories of a certain era in his creations. In this episode, Karthik and Hari analyze why nostalgia is such a 'seductive liar'. They talk about concepts like the reminiscence bump - the science behind why certain memories are fonder and also the business around it in art, advertising and product design.
