I talk with political scientist Thomas Pepinsky, who has studied, amongst other things, American distrust in elections.

The science of conversation analysis can make you more persuasive, with Elizabeth Stokoe

This is a podcast about deciphering human behavior and understanding why people do the things they do. I, Zach Elwood, talk with people from a wide range of fields about how they make sense of human behavior and psychology. I've talked to jury consultants, interrogation professionals, behavior researchers, sports analysts, professional poker players, to name a few. There are more than 135 episodes, many of them quite good (although some say I'm biased). To learn more, go to PeopleWhoReadPeople.com.
