The NPR program Hidden Brain will be joining the WKAR NewsTalk lineup this weekend on 94.5 FM and AM 870. Here’s an excerpt of Katie Cook’s conversation with host Shankar Vedantam last year. She first asked him what listeners can expect from an episode of Hidden Brain.

Tune into AM 870 or 94.5 FM Saturdays at noon or Sundays at 3pm to hear Hidden Brain.

 

WKAR has closed the gap left by the loss of federal funding. Because of you, trusted journalism, inspiring stories, and classical music remain freely available to everyone in mid-Michigan.
