I’m going to veer away from traditional marketing topics for a minute, but I promise it’s worth it. Shankar Vedantam hosts Hidden Brain, which “explores the unconscious patterns that drive human behavior, shape our choices, and direct our relationships.” While you won’t hear any explicit marketing strategies here, marketers will absolutely benefit from understanding why humans behave the way they do. Plus, the topics are downright fascinating.
Unlike other interview podcasts, Shankar weaves external audio clips into episodes that add context to the guest’s story and elevate the content. For example, instead of simply introducing a guest, he shares an audio clip from actual news coverage from a pivotal moment in the guest’s life.
