| 2/3/26 | Bias: Present Bias | My final short story on behavioural biases. This week, the story focuses on the power of today over tomorrow by looking at present bias. Present bias describes our tendency to give greater weight to rewards available now, while undervaluing the costs those choices impose on our future. And, in this story, I try to take this idea to its extreme. I hope these little psychological stories have been enjoyable for you. I'm taking a little break now to organise and record more interviews. Com... | 38m 20s | ||||||
| 1/20/26 | Bias: Revenge | Another short story involving a behavioural bias. This week, the bias is revenge. Maybe not considered by behavioural scientists as one of the core cohort of behavioural biases, revenge certainly fits the bill. It makes people act irrationally and often behave against their own self-interest. While I did write this week's story, it is a retelling of Roald Dahl's short story "William & Mary." I used Dahl's original story to practice my own writing, using the narrative of the original as sc... | 1h 06m 47s | ||||||
| 1/6/26 | Sticking to New Year's Resolutions | Happy New Year! Have you set yourself a resolution? If so, in this episode, I share how a behaviourist psychologist would approach sticking to them and sailing past Quitters Day on January 17th. The principles are taken from a book called Self-Help Without The Hype by Professor Robert Epstein. I was honoured to have written the foreword to the new edition last year, in which I reflect on how the world has changed since the book's original release in 1996, yet the general lessons within the bo... | 21m 46s | ||||||
| 12/23/25 | Bias: Choice Overload | Something different for Christmas. I share a short story based on a behavioural bias. This week, the story is called Spaghetti Sauce and is about choice overload. Choice is a paradox. We convince ourselves that we want it, and certainly rebel when it’s taken away from us, but when we get too much of it, we regularly struggle to make a choice. This story follows a young girl in Atlanta as she struggles with the choices of daily life, with dire consequences. Spaghetti Sauce was written by me, P... | 44m 13s | ||||||
| 12/9/25 | The Psychology of Time | In this episode of Everything’s Psychology, I sit down with Richard D. Gross, author of The Psychology of Time, to unpack how our minds construct the very thing we live inside of: time. From internal body clocks and ‘mind time’ to cultural attitudes and our awareness of mortality, we explore why time can race, crawl, or seem to stand still. You’ll learn why your brain is always half a second late, yet your experience still feels live and continuous.You’ll hear how extreme situations – from ... | 44m 20s | ||||||
| 11/25/25 | The Psychology of Conspiracy Theories | Was the moon landing mankind’s giant leap, or was it Hollywood's greatest special effect? Was the global vaccine rollout an elaborate scheme by Bill Gates to implant microchips in all of us? And do the condensation trails you see behind aeroplanes in the sky contain chemicals to keep the population docile? Let's be honest, a small part of us loves a good conspiracy theory. They’re exciting. They make the world feel a little less random. But why are these ideas so sticky? What makes us want t... | 56m 10s | ||||||

| 11/11/25 | The Psychology of Sport | What makes a great athlete? Why do some sports professionals rise to the occasion, while others crumble under pressure? Do the lessons from sports transfer to other areas of our lives, such as business or parenting? With me to discuss the psychology of sport, is Dr Jim Taylor. Jim holds a PhD in Psychology, has written 18 books including The Complete Guide to Cycling Psychology and Train Your Mind for Athletic Success, and he is the co-founder of Mindto, a start-up developing an app that empo... | 58m 10s | ||||||
| 10/28/25 | The Psychology of Podcasts | Why do people start a podcast? I chat with host of the Growth Mindset Psychology podcast, Sam Webster Harris, about his motivations for launching a podcast and why, after 500+ episodes, he's still doing it. We chat about the psychology of motivation, self-determination, signalling theory, and whether there's a hierarchy of influencers.

| 9/30/25 | The Psychology of OnlyFans | Valued this year at $8 billion, OnlyFans is the video hosting site generating significant media interest, with celebrities using it to support their other work. I chat with Dr Anna Kelberg about why people put themselves on cams, and whether it's just for the money. Also, is paying for a subscription to an OnlyFans provider considered cheating on your partner? And, is OnlyFans something which young people view as empowering or exploitation? – – – Find out more about Anna's work at https://www... | 49m 43s | ||||||

| 9/2/25 | The Psychology of Sexual Violence | In this episode, we dip our psychological toes into the world of sociology and gender studies by chatting with Professor Alison Phipps (Newcastle University) about sexual violence. It's certainly a serious topic, but we try to tackle it with humour as Alison and I are old school friends who can be open and honest with each other.
