SYSK Choice: How to Think Like a Rocket Scientist & How Coffee Became Our Favorite Drink

Everyone knows not to go grocery shopping when you are hungry because you will likely buy junk you don’t need. Actually, it turns out you shouldn’t do ANY kind of shopping when you are hungry. This episode begins with the reason why. http://www.womansday.com/life/work-money/default/a49921/dont-buy-anything-on-an-empty-stomach/ When someone says to you “Hey, it’s not rocket science, ” it implies that rocket science is really hard and rock scientists are brilliant. And they probably are. So, wouldn’t it be great to think like one? Former rocket scientist Ozan Varol joins me to explain how. Ozan is now a retired rocket scientist who is now a law professor and author of the book, Think Like A Rocket Scientist (https://amzn.to/2VxeHh1).  Every day, a large portion of the world’s population drinks coffee. Is it because coffee is so great or is that we are all just addicted to the caffeine? So how did coffee become so popular? Augustine Sedgewick has investigated the history of our love affair with coffee and he joins me to share this remarkable story. Augustine is a teacher at City University in New York , got his PhD from Harvard – and he is author of the book Coffeeland: One Man’s Dark Empire and the Making of Our Favorite Drug (https://amzn.to/3b642jW).  We all know that eating fruits and vegetables is good for you. But can it also make you better looking?
