The Amygdala Podcast by Siddhant Karmali
Episode notes
Remember that feeling of fear when you're running out of time on that final exam, or jubilation when your crush accepted our promposal, or rage when you got frustrated losing a game? At times like these two almond-shaped structures, called the amygdalae, take over your brain. In teenagers, the amygdala drives most of our decisions. So this podcast is aptly named after the amygdala; since it is about neuroscientific takes on current matters. We put everything from college applications to climate change through the lens of the brain. So come and join us on this journey!
