Ep930 Why We Swear It’s True

from The Brain Food Podcast · host raheem

We like to think our deepest beliefs are built on raw facts, clear logic, and objective truth. But neuroscience tells a very different story. In this episode, we peek under the hood of the human brain to uncover why conviction feels like a fact, how your mind acts as a prediction engine, and why certainty is actually a feeling generated to keep you safe and save energy.
