All In The Mind Folgen

Growing older is something we only get to do if we’re lucky, so why are so many of us unenthusiastic about the prospect of ageing?

Design and creativity really can work together. We talk with a design critic and a product design educator who both have an interest in toys - their history, and how they’re created and assessed in the real world. Get your blocks ready to play along. 

There's a condition so bizarre and rare that most doctors haven't even heard of it - it's called Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome and it causes people to hear their blood moving, bones creaking, lungs breathing and even eyeballs moving.

Warning: this episode contains a description of a surgical operation.
