On a wing and a prarie

It’s coming up to Valentine’s Day, and Dr Cat falls head over heels with the science of love. She tests out the “36 questions that lead to love” with science educator Mia Sharman, and tried to understand what goes on in the brain when we get warm and fuzzy feelings for people – especially with the help of our fuzzy, furry friends, prarie voles.

This episode originally aired 11th February, 2025.
