210. How Minds Change with David McRaney

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today I am very excited to introduce you to David McRaney, you may have heard of his first book</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">You Are Not So Smart</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">which is an international bestseller that is now available in 17 languages. He went on to create an awesome podcast of the same name and wrote a second book</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">You Are Now Less Dumb</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">. I highly recommend both of those and his podcast…and today we are talking about his new book, which just came out this week, called</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">How Minds Change</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As you will hear us talk about in the interview, this book is a fascinating journey we take along with David as he seeks to answer the question, "How do minds change?" The book is filled with interesting stories, lots of science, and fun anecdotes. I really enjoyed it and learned so much along the way, some of which you can hear about in today's episode. Join us to hear all about it!</span></p> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Show Notes:</span></h3> <ul> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">[00:43] Today I am very excited to introduce you to David McRaney.
