Episode 3 explores the myth behind the namesake of the podcast &#8211; &#8220;You only use 10% of your brain&#8221;. Annika and Luciano explore the potential origins behind this myth, why the myth still persists today, and the scientific evidence that counteracts it.
Luciano also has some homework to complete from the last episode&#8230;
