Radiolab – The good show

I find this subject to be extremely interesting. Darwin’s theory of evolution revealed a scary question: does altruism exist?

On the one hand ‘natural selection’ suggests that it doesn’t. Is altruism something that just isn’t written in our ‘code’? On the other hand, it remains a mysterious question because there are numerous of examples of humans acting selfless to help one another.

This podcast ads some interesting views on the matter. What do you think?

On this site you can find podcasts I listened to and find worthy of sharing with you. You will find that I mostly listen to This American Life, Stuff You Should Know, Strangers, Freakonomics and Radiolab. I will add more podcasts as I listen to them, so this register will be updated (and thereby grow) regularly.
