Episode Ep22 "What do we find beautiful?"
Why do briefly glimpsed people appear to be more attractive? Why did portrait photographers put Vaseline on their lenses, and what does that have to do with Instagram filters?

In this episode, Eagleman gets us to view the familiar as strange as we examine beauty, instincts, and what drives us.
