Make Belief
Ever wonder why you hold the opinions you do, or where that gut feeling about what's healthy actually comes from? Make Belief, from Candor Entertainment, digs into the fascinating and often messy foundations of the ideas we take for granted. This isn't about proving beliefs right or wrong, but about understanding their architecture-how they're formed in our minds, reinforced by culture, and why they can be so difficult to change. Each episode is a deep, curious conversation that treats topics like dietary trends or political leanings not as simple choices, but as complex outcomes of science, social pressure, and personal narrative. You'll hear from researchers, doctors, and sociologists, but also from everyday people grappling with these very concepts. The goal is to pull apart the layers, revealing the surprising origins and unintended consequences of the beliefs that shape our daily lives. Tune in for a thoughtful exploration that sits at the unique intersection of science, medicine, and social behavior, asking more questions than it answers. This podcast provides the space to examine the invisible frameworks of our thinking, making the familiar suddenly strange and worth a second look.
