00:15:10 | October 27th, 2017
Why do people believe in ghosts? And can science ever prove that they don’t exist? We take a road trip with Dennis Waskul, a sociologist who traveled to graveyards and “haunted” houses to hear ghost stories, from the people who lived them. He wanted to find out why 50% of Americans believe in ghosts. What he discovered might spook you – in a good way! (Note: This episode is NOT scary.)

Why Words?! How We Learn Language
00:16:45 | October 20th, 2017
Children are the best language learners, says psycholinguist Evan Kidd. But how do children learn languages so easily, and why is learning another language so hard when you’re an adult? It’s something we’ve been wondering since we moved to Barcelona, Spain this summer. Evan Kidd shares his quest to put together the complex puzzle of how humans learn language. What he’s discovered might change the way you think about your own native tongue.
