About this episode

<p>Many of us spend our workdays responding to a never-ending stream of emails and texts. We feel stressed out and perpetually behind on our to-do list. But what if there was a better way to work? This week, we revisit a favorite conversation about "deep work" with computer scientist <a href="https://people.cs.georgetown.edu/~cnewport/">Cal Newport</a>. And we'll visit a lab that's studying whether brain stimulation can improve our ability to handle multitasking and interruptions. </p> <p><em>If you like this show, please check out our new podcast, <a href="https://hiddenbrain.org/myunsunghero/">My Unsung Hero</a>!
