We're back! We're kicking off a new season of episodes with an interview with Dr. Paul Bloom to discuss his new book Psych. We discuss science communication, the limits and value of psychology, whether researchers should be siloed in academia,

the problem with empathy, if kids are little bigots, and if social psychology isn't paying enough attention to policy.
