推荐几个英文播客吧。长知识还有意思，再次感叹下国外的播客生态~（原贴整理在我的小红薯，ID 同名）

Shankar Vedantam uses science and storytelling to reveal the unconscious patterns that drive human behavior, shape our choices and direct our relationships.

很喜欢Shanker在官网这样描述Hidden Brain 的mission：The central mission of Hidden Brain is to help people see the world with fresh eyes, to become tourists in their own lives.

【推荐谁听】磨耳朵材料 & 希望拓展社会科学知识、对社会学、行为学感兴趣的朋友。

罗曼罗兰说，世界上只有一种真正的英雄主义，是在认清生活的真相后依然热爱它。

Shanker 认为，在平凡单调的日常中探索自我，这才更令人心动。我们以为的那些“惯性模式”（pattern），背后蕴藏着很多科学成因，而发现和揭示他们，就能从而做出改变。

We shall not cease from exploration

And the end of all our exploring

Will be to arrive where we started

And know the place for the first time.

— T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets

为什么想找份好工作那么难？为什么处理职场关系这么累？这班一定要上吗？…

沃顿商学院教授Adam Grant给我们打开新的思路——也许这世界上没有什么所谓的“好工作”，你的这份工作也许就是“好工作”。你如何看待工作——是出卖劳动力，还是在一个平台挖掘和构建你的社会关系？视角不同，感受不同。

不要总是沉浸在打工人的话术洗脑中，换个思维，打开新的天地。

“这不就是鸡汤吗” 肯定会有人这样说。即使是鸡汤，只要适当喝，就没毒。积极心理学告诉我们，人类自身存在着抵御精神疾患的力量，而如何发展和培养这些品质，是成功塑造幸福、健全人格的关键。

三位来自哈佛大学的教授的对话，话题涉及商业、科技、未来趋势等，观点和案例穿插进行，很生活化。每期30min-1hr不等，语速中等，风格轻松。

【推荐谁听】

有英文环境需求的朋友，特别适合“磨耳朵”和培养语感！我们平时生活的环境很难产生“对话感”，英语成绩再好的人也大多数是“哑巴英语”，而对话式播客其实在这个方面也提供了很好的帮助，你甚至可以学到一些起承转合、回复、反应的技巧。

上不了哈佛也能免费和哈佛教授“small talk” ，一举多得！

【推荐谁听】适合各个年龄段。个人觉得对青年、中年帮助很大。TED的话题比较宽泛，涵盖了职场、生活、家庭、科学、社会话题等一系列热门领域，对于我们打开认知边界有很好的帮助。每个讲者也拥有不同的讲述风格，因此在听每一期的时候都是充满新鲜感的。

正如TED所说的那样“改变视角，点亮好奇，学习新知”。
