Something You Should Know

You probably aren’t letting your dishwasher do its job the way it’s designed to — and you may be wasting time (and water) in the process. In this opening segment, we reveal why your dishwasher is smarter than you think, how to make it work harder for you, and the one thing it desperately wants you to stop doing. https://www.womansday.com/home/organizing-cleaning/a51170/stop-prerinsing-dishes/

Social status isn’t just for the shallow or phony — it’s something we all crave in one way or another. Whether at work, in friendships, or within communities, status offers hidden advantages. Joining me to explore how status really works is Toby Stuart, professor of business administration at the Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley, who has also taught at Harvard, Columbia, and the University of Chicago. He’s the author of Anointed: The Extraordinary Effects of Social Status in a Winner-Take-Most World (https://amzn.to/421hLEO), and he explains why status-seeking is deeply human — and far more influential than you may realize.

You may never have heard of your vestibular system, but without it, simple tasks like walking or even standing would be nearly impossible. It’s the hidden sense that keeps your balance in check, and it’s just as vital as sight or hearing. To explain how it works and why it matters, I’m joined by Dr. Jeffrey Sharon, director of the Balance and Falls Center and associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco. He’s also author of The Great Balancing Act: An Insider’s Guide to the Human Vestibular System (https://amzn.to/4g1rdhC).

Stress often gets a bad reputation. We’re told it’s harmful and that the goal should be to reduce or eliminate it. But according to Dr. Rebecca Heiss, stress isn’t the enemy—in fact, it can be one of your greatest assets. Rachel is a physiologist, researcher, and author of Springboard: Transform Stress to Work for You (https://amzn.to/3JwSCvx). She reveals groundbreaking research showing that stress, when used properly, is essential for growth, resilience, and success.

Movies today are everywhere—streaming platforms, endless libraries, and algorithms that recommend what to watch. Yet somehow, many people feel like movies just aren’t what they used to be. Why is that? Jeff Rauseo, author of Lost in the Stream: How Algorithms Redefined the Way Movies Are Made and Watched (https://amzn.to/41hhcXq) explores how technology and changing viewing habits have transformed both filmmaking and movie-watching—and why it’s left some audiences feeling less satisfied.

And finally, bananas. Did you know bananas are actually berries? Or that you might be peeling them wrong (at least according to monkeys)? Listen as I share some fun and surprising facts about one of the world’s most popular fruits.Source: https://www.thekitchn.com/do-bananas-really-ripen-more-slowly-when-theyre-separated-putting-tips-to-the-test-in-the-kitchen-216780

How do top performers get to be the best at what they do? Many people assume it’s all about experience or endless practice, but there’s a more effective approach.

Eduardo reveals a powerful strategy you can apply to improve at anything you want to master.

A growing movement suggests that our future may involve owning less—or even nothing at all. Advocates claim it offers freedom from responsibility, but critics warn that it threatens the traditional path to wealth creation. One of those critics is Carol Roth, author of You Will Own Nothing (https://amzn.to/44wDGCr). Carol explains who is behind this movement, what it means for you, and why it could have big implications for the future.

For as long as humans have been around, we’ve had to do something with our hair. We’ve cut it, colored it, styled it—and hairstyles have come and gone through the centuries. But where do these trends really come from? Why do they say so much about who we are? And why are some styles (like the mullet, the pompadour, or “The Rachel”) so iconic? To answer these questions, I speak with Rachel Gibson, a hair historian who knows more about hair than anyone you’ll ever meet. She’s currently writing a book on the subject and shares fascinating content on her Instagram @thehairhistorian https://www.instagram.com/thehairhistorian/#

Why You Wear Your Hair That Way & The Surprising Science of Human Stupidity

Credit cards are so embedded in modern life that it’s hard to imagine shopping without them. But they haven’t been around that long. What was the very first credit card?

Chris takes us inside the secret world of credit cards, their fascinating history, and how you can make them work for you.

Confidence can feel like an elusive trait—some people seem to have it naturally, while others struggle with self-doubt. But confidence isn’t just a personality trait—it’s a skill you can build. Juan Bendaña has coached CEOs, Olympians, Grammy-winning artists, and Fortune 100 leaders. He’s also the author of Confident by Choice: The Three Small Decisions That Build Everyday Courage (https://amzn.to/4fM1XeT). Listen as Juan reveals how small daily choices can boost your confidence and transform the way you show up in life.

Have you heard of “primal intelligence”? It’s essentially the opposite of artificial intelligence — the innate, deeply human abilities we’re all born with but often lose touch with over time. U.S. Army Special Operations has been studying it, along with my guest, Angus Fletcher. He’s a professor of story science at Ohio State's Project Narrative and was awarded the U.S. Army Commendation Medal in 2023 for his groundbreaking research into primal intelligence.

He’s the author of Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter Than You Know (https://amzn.to/3HvfeMi).

Humans are wired to both compete and cooperate. While we evolved to survive in groups, we have our own self-interests and desires.

Jonathan Goodman, social scientist at the University of Cambridge, unpacks this age-old tension — revealing how it shapes our relationships, workplaces, and even our evolution. He’s the author of Invisible Rivals: How We Evolved to Compete in a Cooperative World (https://amzn.to/45QBrh1), and his insights might change how you see human nature itself.

In this fascinating conversation, Drew Curtis, licensed psychologist and faculty member at Angelo State University, explains the psychology of lying. He’s author of Big Liars: What Psychological Science Tells Us About Lying and How You Can Avoid Being Duped (https://amzn.to/47PmsmP), and he reveals why we lie, how it affects our lives, and how to spot deception before it fools you.
