In the meantime, I hope you apply what you hear on the show so you can live what you learn.
And we'll see you next time.
Taking a quick break to tell you about my friend's new book, I Told You So.
This one's for anyone who's ever wondered why the smartest person in the room is sometimes the one that everybody ignores.
Author Matt Kaplan, who's been a science correspondent at The Economist for two decades, he looks at the history of scientific breakthroughs that were obvious in hindsight, but threatening at the time.
And when an idea threatens people's careers, reputations, funding, or worldview, things can get pretty ugly pretty fast.
Scientists who pushed ideas we now take for granted were mocked, sidelined, pushed out before anyone finally said, okay, maybe they were right.
Handwashing before surgery, sterilizing instruments.
These were once controversial enough to ruin reputations, which sounds completely insane now, but Matt shows this still happens today with funding politics, peer-reviewed gatekeeping, fraud, ego, and fear of career retaliation.
That's what makes I Told You So quite fascinating.
