Hello and welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet.
Im head of programming Connor Boyle were joined on the podcast by Charles Duhigg today.
Charles is a Pulitzer Prize winning reporter and celebrated author, and he returns now with his new book, Super Communicators, which focuses on why some of us are a lot more gifted than others in getting our message heard.
Joining Charles in conversation today is Helen Chersky.
Helen is a physicist, oceanographer, writer, broadcaster, and science communicator.
Let's join Helen now with more all.
The wars and strife and polarization in today's society can make it hard to remember this, but homo sapiens is fundamentally a social species, and all of humanity's greatest achievements and greatest joys have come about by groups of people working together and sharing.
And of course, in our modern world, we're completely reliant on cooperation, and to cooperate you have to communicate.
And the most basic form might be a conversation between individuals, but obviously we've expanded that out.
We've got huge libraries full of books and endless online chatter and speeches and songs and poems.
We live in a world that is flooded by communication.
