How do they complement each other, interact, and leave their marks on the people that come after them? And are cultures truly ever lost, even if the people move on or evolve and adapt? Lost Cultures: Living Legacies—the award-winning podcast from Travel + Leisure—returns for Season 2. This seaso ...

Listener Piper called us up with this question, “Why do some people have a harder time than others distinguishing their left and right?”
When our friends at the Vox podcast Unexplainable heard it they were so intrigued that they created a whole game show around it and invited our very own Explain It to Me host Jonquilyn Hill to play along.
Why do some people struggle to tell their left from their right? What makes someone a lefty? And why does life have this weird rule about only having either left- or right-handed molecules?
Check out Unexplainable wherever you get your podcasts.
If you have a question — something you’d like us to explain to you — give us a call at 1-800-618-8545. You can also send us your question here.
