Episode 18: Pants on Fire

"We lie not because we're immoral, but because our brains are wired for it — and sometimes, even we believe our own lies." This episode dives into the fascinating science of why we lie, from brain scans showing how deception works, to how self-deception actually evolved to help us outwit each other. Turns out, the key to honesty isn’t just about morality — it's about understanding how our brains and social lives drive us to bend the truth. Worth thinking about.
