Episode notes

"This is an interaction with reality itself, in which we're all playing the game together," she says. "It's not necessarily bad, even though it feels kind of icky, I guess, because it makes you feel like you're lying or you're a liar." She adds that people who have more false memories are generally more interesting and creative.

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.
