TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that human behavior is messy. To say I was a basket case would probably not be an understatement. Human behavior is complicated. Our mind is incredibly adept at simulating all sorts of possibilities.

And human behavior is endlessly fascinating. The mother daughter relationship in some ways is a perfect storm. This is Shankar Vedantam. Since 2015, I've hosted the Hidden Brain podcast.

And now, I'm so excited to launch our new podcast subscription, Hidden Brain Plus. If you like learning about humans and why we do the things we do, Hidden Brain Plus is where you'll get even more of the insights and ideas that we feature on the show. And I wish I could tell my 20-year-old self, things are okay. Things all worked out.

They weren't easy. They weren't always good, but things all worked out. But then I said, maybe that's not good because maybe the reason that things turned out okay is because I was so panicked and fickering things out. Plus, we turn the mic over to listeners and pose your questions to some of our most popular guests.

Hey Shankar, Dr. Bananji. This is John Janovik from Maniacar, Michigan. This is Club Youtamai from Italy.

Hi, this is Jenny from Austin, Texas. The question I have is based on a recent interaction I had at work where my manager... Is this bias receding or is it stable over the years? And I'm curious how I can apply these seven principles to my children.

That's my issue. Thank you so much. Bye-bye. Thank you.

Ciao. Hidden Brain Plus. Coming to Apple Podcasts on May 25th. Try Hidden Brain Plus for free on the Apple Podcasts app or at apple.co.com.

Again, that's apple.co. Thanks and see you there.
