We’re back with an exciting episode to celebrate Riley’s 25th birthday! This month, we’re taking a look at the king whose story inspired the birth of ULTC: King Henry VIII. Stefanie gives us the rundown on the historical consequences of his lifelong pursuit of love and Riley tells us about the science of brain injury. Then, we hear two firsthand accounts of brain injury: one sustained from a car accident with a drunk driver and one sustained in the 2010 Haitian earthquake. We round out the episode considering how much our biology can excuse our behavior.
We also have a bittersweet announcement to make. Due to scheduling constraints (i.e. Riley finally has data and Stefanie finally has a boyfriend), we will be focusing on our podcast and no longer writing our monthly blog series. Thank you to all of our dedicated readers for your support, and continue to check back here for all things ULTC.
Plus: Riley forgot she got married. You can put anything on Broadway. Carolyn Keene is not a real person. Stefanie finds out Riley broke her Christmas ornament.
