The Venn Dialogues
Join Christine & Jacoby, weekly, as they discuss a wide-range of topics they find interesting. The pair will give their perspective on the topic of the week and then look at the research, facts and literature associated with the topic to see if it expands the conversation. These topics will create a dialogue that encourages our listeners to learn more about the world and ourselves. Listen weekly to find out how you can add to the conversation.

The Venn Dialogues
Please Don't Fake It!
WARNING: Jacoby's audio is a bit distorted until the 17 minute mark. If it is too jarring, please feel free to skip ahead.
This week we talk about overconfidence! We explore some sociological theories (i.e. Dunning-Kruger Effect) and then dive into ways we can try to recognize or combat overconfidence in ourselves and each other.
