54: The Art of Learning

All four of our original hosts, Tyler, Paul, Hans, and Nolan, are gathered together as we talk about neuroplasticity. After a brief conversation of catching up, we will start unpackaging some of the inner workings of the brain to better understand how we learn. As noted in the episode, we used an article from Fox News, 'Learning trap' study reveals why children may be better learners than adults, linked below.
