Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely

This episode explores Dan Ariely’s Predictably Irrational, a fascinating examination of the hidden forces that shape human decision-making. Ariely challenges the assumption that people make rational choices, using engaging experiments and anecdotes to reveal how psychological, emotional, and social factors drive our behavior in unexpected ways. We unpack key themes such as relativity in pricing, the allure of free offers, the distinction between social and market norms, and the powerful role of expectations and emotions. While Predictably Irrational has reshaped perspectives on behavioral economics, we also discuss its practical implications and the broader conversation it sparks about human predictability.Disclaimer: This episode provides an educational overview and commentary on Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions by Dan Ariely.
