Listening to music with air pods or headphones can damage your hearing. To prevent this, you need to understand the common causes of hearing loss. This episode begins with an explanation so you can avoid the problem while still enjoying your favorite music. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hearing-loss/symptoms-causes/syc-20373072 How many times have you heard people say, “You can’t change other people!” Well, that’s not exactly true according to my guest, Peter Bregman. Peter is a well-known consultant, coach and author who believes you CAN get other people to change if you do it right. While his method may not work all the time, it can increase your chances of helping other people make important, positive changes. Peter Bregman is author of the several books including You Can Change Other People (https://amzn.to/3GGpgUh).  Science can explain a lot. And as you listen to this episode, you are going to hear scientific explanations regarding everyday things in your life like plastics, old book smell and what makes a food a superfood. It’s interesting stuff from my guest Dr. Joe Schwarcz. Joe is director of McGill University’s Office for Science and Society and the author of several books. His latest is, Superfoods, Silkworms, and Spandex: Science and Pseudoscience in Everyday Life (https://amzn.to/3Zoc3ei).
