How much can you trust your memories? Are your memories more reliable than those around you? Imagine seeing a horrific event and moments later you and your loved ones cannot agree on what you just saw, your memories have already failed you and began to distort.

That's what we'll be discussing in this episode of Mental Debugging. We'll chat briefly about how memories are formed, stored, and recalled and why that process leaves your memories open to distortions from others and yourself. 

We also cover how you can work on improving your memory or hold onto the information you want to learn.
