This first collection of episodes introduces the revolutionary framework of Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman. We begin by exploring the two systems that drive our thinking: the fast, intuitive System 1 and the slow, deliberate System 2. Then, we dive deep into the hidden biases and mental shortcuts that shape our everyday judgments, from the anchoring effect and loss aversion to the planning fallacy.
