In the first part of today's show, we looked at a surprising study that suggests chewing wood may boost memory and brain antioxidants. Then we discussed how real-time AI voice technology is altering accents in Indian call centers to improve clarity.

Today's unpopular opinion was that people's morality isn’t built on principles, but rote memorization.

In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans to name things that are universally agreed to be morally "bad." Later, we saw how islanders in Guernsey were told not to gather around a squirrel.
