Could Solving This One Problem Solve All the Others?

Season 6, Episode 38

This week on Freakonomics Radio: the biggest problem with humanity is humans themselves. Too often, we make choices — what we eat, how we spend our money and time — that undermine our well-being.

Stephen J. Dubner asks, “How can we stop?” And this radio hour has two answers: think small, and make behavior change stick.

To find out more, check out the podcasts from which this hour was drawn: “Big Returns from Thinking Small” and “Could Solving This One Problem Solve All the Others?.”
