Let's Talk about Earworms!

Update: 2021-10-15

Description

An "earworm" is a term for when a song gets stuck in your head, and you can't get it unstuck. In this episode, I look at research about how earworms happen, some quick brain science, and most importantly - how to get rid of them! A short and sweet episode about those short and sweet pieces of songs that won't leave our brains alone!
