In this episode of Research Matters, psychologist Gordon Pennycook dives into the surprisingly relatable science of why smart people believe dumb things, from conspiracy theories to “deep” nonsense that only sounds profound.
Blending humor with research, the conversation reveals how our fast, distracted brains and overconfidence make us easy targets for misinformation, and why the real fix might be as simple (and as hard) as pausing to think.
