We move into a Flex/Summer discussion on a number of topics as we gear up for Season 3: Cognitive Psychology. In this episode we discuss Kellogg, the Battle Creek Sanitarium, eugenics again, and some of the players in this wide circle of interesting history. Additionally, we have been trying new setups the last few episodes and doing it live and sharing a microphone was not ideal. Hopefully we will have things fixed soon.
