Ep 1: Sophie Scott - World's Worst Psychological Treatment

from Worst Foot Forward · host Hosted by Ben Van der Velde and Barry McStay

Kicking off our first episode we chat to Professor Sophie Scott, an expert in neuroscience and the way that laughter works in the brain. Our subject matter is not as light and fluffy, as we explore the worst psychological treatments of all time, taking us on a journey from Bristol's most infamous asylum to Ancient Greece, stopping off on the way to stare at some dangerous looking Arctic shamans brandishing hacksaws.
