I am releasing this month’s episode of Brain Science a week early so that you can enjoy it during your Holiday travels. It is our 13th Annual Review episode. I share highlights from the episodes released in 2019 (153-163) plus some personal reflections on the recent 4-part series about Consciousness.

I also announced that in 2020 Brain Science will come out twice a month, on the 2nd and 4th Friday. Although the Brain Science Podcast was produced every other week during its first two years, it has been a monthly show for the last 10+ years. I hope that doubling the content will encourage listener support.
