Today on Hidden Brain, we explore the secret logic of irrational anger. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Folge vom 21.09.2020The Halo EffectJudy, Lyn and Donna Ulrich were driving to a volleyball game when their Ford Pinto was hit from behind by a Chevy van. The Pinto caught fire, and the three teenagers were burned to death. This week on Hidden Brain, we talk to a former Ford insider who could have voted to recall the Pinto years before the Ulrich girls were killed — but didn't. And we ask, is it possible to fairly evaluate our past actions when we know how things turned out? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
