Laughter, Groupthink, and Cognitive Dissonance with Dr. Camille Holiner
Manage episode 401963720 series 3451517
Have you ever thought very hard about laughter? Laughter can express everything from delight to fear, and it can have physiological implications, as well. It’s also often contagious--which helps explain the canned laugh tracks we all know and (maybe) love.
In this episode, Dr. Camille Holiner and I break down the meaning of laughter, the role of groupthink in how films, TV, and books are received, and how untreated trauma can affect our lives.
