Habit is the topic at hand for our inaugural episode of 2016.  Postdoctoral Research Associate Jen Labrecque joins Jesse for an in-depth look at habit and human behavior.  Tune in to find out more about habit formation, the power of environmental cues, and ideal ways to implement changes in your habits — for New Years Resolutions and beyond.

Elsewhere in the episode, Jesse offers some good news for those who want to boost their long-term memory without supplements, without mnemonic tricks, and without extra time for sleep.  Is this even possible?  According to new research: Yes.  And it’s surprisingly simple — but you’ll have to listen to find out.
