This week I'm talking with Athena Aktipis about the gradients of apocalyptic events and how humans cope with the end times. Athena is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Arizona State University and co-Director of The Cooperation Science Network and The Human Generosity Project. This episode is a part of a new series we're working on where we present ideas from scientists in a more structured format. We're still fine-tuning the way this will work, so make sure and join the brainstorm over on my Discord.  Athena's Twitter: https://twitter.com/athenaaktipis Athena's podcast :https://www.zombified.org/ Athena's website: http://www.athenaaktipis.org/ Help support this show and everything I do: https://www.patreon.com/shanemauss Thank you for watching and being an inquisitive being.
