Episode notes

Julia Shaw: introverts are more like klutu, not remember the details of specific situations. Some people get very detail oriented about the scene and how other people looked. And some people are much more likely to talk about how they felt or how other people made them feel. "You as an individual carry with you your knowledge base, and that's going to be different from anyone else"

Our guest on this episode of the You Are Not So Smart Podcast is Dr. Julia Shaw, the author of The Memory Illusion, Julia is famous among psychologists because she was able to implant false memories into a group of subjects and convince 70 percent of them that they were guilty of a crime they did not commit, and she did so by using the sort of sloppy interrogation techniques that some police departments have been truly been guilty of using in the past.
