Hilah shares what she's learned from The Awakened Brain, a book by Lisa Miller, Phd. 
They help a listener who has been accused of being a gossip after sharing some inflammatory information about an acquaintance. Jessie establishes what constitutes malicious gossip and Hilah  points out the societal merits of gossip and also the Neanderthal origin story of gossip and how we all learned that mud isn't great for our digestive system. 
Sorry if this isn't a great description- Jessie isn't quite the great writer Hilah thinks she is.
