The following program is meant for therapeutic purposes only.
Any knowledge or entertainment found in the minds of the audience is purely coincidental.
While the subjects of the conversations are sourced from the current cutting edge of published scientific studies, selected only from the finest well-established scientific publications Submitted for scientific publication by researchers and institutions that are credentialed experts in their fields.
The real purpose of the show is subliminal relaxation therapy as you listen a series of tones will play imperceptibly, just beyond the range of human hearing at frequencies designed to alleviate stress, create focus, and unlock creative potential.
Occasionally there will be an advertisement but don’t worry, it won’t be annoying. Why, you won’t even know that you are hearing it.
Though you may find yourself uncontrollably donating to the occasional worthy cause so kick back, relax and get ready for another episode of This Week in Science!
