Welcome To We Interrupt Your Programming

In this introduction episode, Dr. Corinne Votaw-Freer, humanist and social psychologist, invites you into the world of We Interrupt Your Programming. This podcast takes a center-ground perspective on today’s most pressing social issues, cutting through the biases we hold and the noise perpetuated by media. Dr. Votaw-Freer shares her fascination with the way we think, believe, and act—and reveals a startling truth: 95% of our thoughts and actions aren’t based on conscious decisions but are shaped by lifelong programming from our environments, workplaces, schools, and media. This episode sets the stage for what’s to come—thought-provoking discussions, practical tools to rethink our behaviors, and a commitment to fostering empathy and self-control. Get ready to question, reflect, and grow as Dr. Votaw-Freer interrupts mindless patterns and challenges us to develop greater respect for ourselves and others. New episodes drop every Monday morning, with bonus episodes twice a week when major events break. Start your journey to thinking differently today!
