You Are Not So Smart

David McRaney's long-running show about reasoning, bias and self-deception, which takes the time to get a concept right before moving on. A good recent example is a whole episode on pluralistic ignorance, the trap where most people privately reject a norm while wrongly assuming everyone else accepts it. Most episodes center on an interview with a researcher, and the guest list ranges beyond psychology into political science and astronomy, so check the topic before pressing play. McRaney's interest in how minds change runs through the archive, which makes it a strong pick for anyone curious about persuasion and belief rather than individual quirks.
