Description

#41 In this episode of The Progress Pure podcast, Molly has the pleasure of chatting with Will Storr, an award-winning journalist and novelist whose work has appeared in the Guardian, Sunday Times, The New Yorker, and the New York Times. His books include Selfie: How the West Became Self-Obsessed, The Unpersuadables: Adventures with the Enemies of Science, The Hunger, The Howling of Killian Lone and which they discuss in this episode, The Science of Storytelling. Will and Molly touch on how our brains are wired to use the story narrative to give us meaning, breaking down beliefs which help form our identity, the history of stories and how they've helped us to survive and any personal narratives they've erased and why.
