Capgras Syndrome / The Imposter Delusion

from STRANGE MIND PODCAST · host Dr. Amy Buesing and Liz Kroll

What if someone you love looked exactly the same—but you knew they weren’t really them? Capgras syndrome convinces people that familiar faces have been replaced by identical imposters. In this episode, we unpack the eerie disconnect between recognition and emotion, exploring how the brain can see someone clearly… yet feel nothing at all.
