Invisiblia

Invisibilia, an NPR series and podcast, about the invisible forces that control human behavior – ideas, beliefs, assumptions and emotions returns to AM 1370 in January for an encore broadcast of season three.

Co-hosted by Hanna Rosin, Alix Spiegel, and Lulu Miller, Invisibilia interweaves narrative storytelling with scientific research that will ultimately make you see your own life differently. Episode dates and descriptions are as follows:

Emotions l Sunday, January 7, 2018 at 9 p.m. 
It feels like emotions just come at us, and there is nothing we can do. But we might have it backwards. We look at an unusual legal case and examine a provocative new theory about emotions.

Reality l Sunday, January 14, 2018 at 9 p.m.
What happens when we can't agree on reality? This week, Invisibilia sets out to find how it is possible for two people to look at the same thing, but see two different realities.

The Culture Inside l January 21, 2018 at 9 p.m.
Is there a part of ourselves that we don't acknowledge, that we don't even have access to and that might make us ashamed if we encountered it?

The Future Self l January 28, 2018 at 9 p.m.
We all have a future self, a version of us that is better, more successful. It can inspire us to achieve our dreams, or mock us for everything we have failed to become.
