  • Why We Lose Muscle–And How to Keep It

    Why We Lose Muscle–And How to Keep It
    2026/08/27
    Strength training prevents frailty as we age. Wards off cognitive decline. Improves glucose control, and more. But what is actually happening inside our bodies when we lift weights? And why is everyone suddenly talking about getting strong? In this episode, 1440 Health & Medicine Editor Dina Fine Maron digs into the science and surprising history of getting strong. She explores how resistance training complements aerobic exercises like running, its role in the era of GLP-1s, and how attitudes toward lifting have evolved–from ancient Olympian might to circus spectacle to fears that big muscles make athletes stiff and slow. Guests: Daniel Lieberman, a human evolutionary biologist at Harvard University. Amanda Paluch, a kinesiologist who studies physical fitness at UMass Amherst.

We live in an age of limitless information but limited understanding. Algorithms decide what we see. Misinformation spreads faster than truth. And the tools meant to expand knowledge now distort it.

  • Can You Trust Your Memories?

    Can You Trust Your Memories?
    2026/08/06
    One of host Sony Kassam's earliest memories is witnessing an armed robbery at her family's convenience store. For nearly 30 years, she believed she knew exactly what happened—until she asked her mother to tell the story. In this episode of "1440 Explores," we unravel the surprising science of memory. Why do our brains preserve some moments while erasing others? And if memory isn't built to perfectly preserve the past, what is it actually for? Guest: Daniel Schacter, professor of psychology at Harvard University and author of "The Seven Sins of Memory."

  • What Happened to Congress?

    What Happened to Congress?
    2026/07/16
    Congress is the first branch of the US government. The Constitution gives it the power to write laws, control federal spending, and declare war. So how did it become one of America's least trusted institutions, and why do presidents increasingly govern without it? In this episode, we trace the century-long transformation of Congress, from the expansion of federal power and the rise of campaign fundraising to omnibus bills and executive orders. Along the way, we ask whether a system designed to move slowly can still function in a world that expects instant action. Guest: Craig Volden, professor of public policy and politics at the University of Virginia and co-author of "Legislative Effectiveness in the United States Congress."
