S2. EP1. Tell Me A Story

Tell Me A Story; an introduction to Season 2

Memory's misuse in storytelling

I made a second season because I wondered - why, if the recovered memory movement is over, do so many people still believe in repressed memories?

Season 2 is for you if:

-you love books, movies or otherwise escaping into a story

-you think about memory and forgetting

-you think about why we think about what we think about...

-you liked Season 1

-you like learning about debunked beliefs.

Please join me, won't you, once again, in The Memory Hole.
