In this episode, we discuss the human tendency to adopt or be influenced by the behaviors and inclinations of those around us, also known as herd mentality.
Quotes from the episode:
“Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one.”
― Charles MacKay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, written in 1841
