What happens to our judgment when we measure our success against others? How might the language we speak shape the way we save money and make health decisions? And why are our expectations about connecting with other people so often wrong?
In the new season of Choiceology, host Katy Milkman explores the psychological forces that shape our decisions, relationships, and behavior.
We'll relive a high-octane Formula 1 rivalry that threatened a championship, travel to an Alpine region where centuries of linguistic history still shape financial decisions today, and discover how much joy and insight can come from striking up a conversation with a stranger.
Featuring insights from top behavioral scientists – including George Loewenstein, Angela Duckworth, Nick Epley, Keith Chen, Nir Halevy, and Leslie John—Choiceology turns cutting-edge behavioral science research into practical ideas you can use to make better decisions about money, work, relationships, and everyday life.
New episodes begin in two weeks. Catch up on past episodes now, and follow the show so you never miss an episode.
Choiceology (schwab.com/learn/choiceology) is an original podcast from Charles Schwab.
