Brain Games: Season 2
Get ready, because season two of Brain Games is about to blow your mind. Join host Jason Silva and deception specialist Apollo Robbins as they visit neuroscientists on the cutting edge of brain research, revealing all that we know-and all we have yet to learn- about what's really going on inside our brains. Twelve episodes are packed with interactive games and try-at-home experiments that will astonish and entertain you, while totally messing with your mind.





9)  Illusion Confusion 
Brain Games reveals how optical illusions are a great way of showing the powerful mechanisms at work that allow your brain to perceive three dimensions.

10)  Battle of the Sexes 
From the second you're born, you're a unique individual. You'll make choices about your friends, your career, your relationships, where you live, and how you dress. But one thing you don't get to choose is whether you were born a man or a woman - and that flip of the genetic coin will play a huge role in determining how you think about... well, almost everything. In this episode, we find out once and for all which gender's hard drive is wired better... for doing what.

11)  What You Dont Know 
Brain Games reveals how the "illusion of knowledge" plagues the human brain and why we fall victim to the notion that we understand more than we actually do.

12)  Seeing is Believing 
Seeing is believing, right? Not necessarily. It all depends on your perspective. In this episode of Brain Games, mind-bending illusions will show you the ways in which your visual perceptions can be surprisingly off. Watch as your brain turns beautiful people into scary monsters, and reduces giants to miniatures.
