In this episode of Upstart Crow, a part of Watershed Lit Radio, host Ken Budd sits down virtually with Dr. Charan Ranganath, renowned neuroscientist and author of Why We Remember: Unlocking Memory's Power to Hold On to What Matters. This episode is presented in collaboration with the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute and Fall for the Book, with Budd—vice chair of the Fall for the Book board of directors—leading an insightful conversation about memory's impact on our lives.

Dr. Ranganath, a Guggenheim Fellow and director of the Dynamic Memory Lab at UC Davis, has spent over two decades researching how the brain forms and recalls memories. In Why We Remember, he redefines the way we think about memory, showing it as an active, transformative force that shapes our identity, decision-making, and emotional well-being. His work reveals how memory is not just a record of the past but a tool for understanding the present and preparing for the future. The conversation delves into this groundbreaking research and offers practical tips on harnessing memory’s strengths, healing from trauma, and even using memory to improve focus and growth.

The second half of this episode offers a Q&A with Dr. Ranganath. Viewers who saw the episode live when it was recorded sent questions through a group chat, exploring topics from everyday memory hacks to the science behind forgetting. Join Upstart Crow for an engaging journey through the science of memory and its profound implications for personal growth and resilience.
