Waver Behavior
by Jordan Blackner
You ever look at something and wonder “What just happened?” while making the thinking emoji face? That was rhetorical, of course you have. Because we’re all freakin weirdos and no matter how much psychologists study human behavior, we still have no explanation why people are constantly changing and unpredictable. One of the definitions of waver is to “become unsteady or unreliable” and the WAVERing patterns in our society sure do keep us on our toes but also very entertained. This podcast explores human behavior and the beautiful earth that inhabits them.
