概要
When did we stop talking to each other — and what is it costing us? Dr. Maryellen MacDonald is a psycholinguist and professor emerita of psychology and language sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and author of More Than Words: How Talking Sharpens the Mind and Shapes Our World.
What she's found is startling: speaking is far more cognitively demanding than listening, reading, or scrolling — and that difficulty is exactly what makes it essential brain exercise. Yet, we're doing it less than ever.
In this episode, we talk about why Gen Z is lonelier and dating less, what helicopter parenting has to do with it, and why the person you've been meaning to call is probably hoping you will.

Your analog assignment this week: Call someone. Not a text. Not a voice note. An actual phone call. It'll be awkward for a few seconds. And then it won't.
