Episode Notes

Why do we post what we post on social media? Do we actually obsess over college for the education? Is there a hidden reason we buy gifts? And why do we lack so much self-awareness about these subconscious motives? Today, we speak with Robin Hanson about his phenomenal book The Elephant in the Brain, and we discuss all of the ways we signal to others and neglect to address it.
