Summary
Oh come on, ANOTHER thing we thought we all knew was true isn't? That's what today's expert, Madalyn Wilson-Fetrow, says! They are a PhD student in learning sciences at the University of New Mexico and they are here to explain what the science actually says! But it's not only a debunk, Madalyn also has some very useful info for us on how to ACTUALLY learn things more effectively! You don't want to miss it! (also I said this was 367 but I got mixed up from all the WTWing. It's 366.)

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Series Inquiries only this is episode 367 or I don't know maybe |
| 0:21.5 | it's episode one of the reboot I don't know keep 367 it's cool but I hope you |
| 0:27.6 | noticed the the slight change to the artwork probably glorifying it a bit too much to |
| 0:32.0 | call them Easter eggs but if you look at it it's different there are different |
| 0:36.5 | things so today I have a really cool interview with an expert about learning |

| 1:35.6 | that work even though it was kind of killing me but it's getting all that |
| 1:38.5 | done and then the stuff happened and then I you know after a few months of being |
| 1:44.2 | unreliable I feel like I've completely decimated my reputation for being |
