Forget It
from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni
Alongside the studies telling us how to keep our memories intact, an enormous body of research has led to another conclusion: In many cases, it's okay (and in fact, beneficial) to forget. Human memory is not only unreliable, but often partially or wholly false. And certain kinds of forgetting is actually really good for us. Anthony and Jeff talk about memory, and try to convince themselves that forgetting is a good thing. GET BONUS EPISODES, VIDEO HANGOUTS AND MORE.
