What is a lie? Is it mere deception, the occasional un-truth or something far deeper and essential to human nature?

In this episode of Stuff to Blow Your Mind, Julie and I plunge into the cognitive depths of fibs, half-truths and bold-faced lies to examine our amazing abilities to warp perceived reality with language.

Plus, where does lying come from? How does it factor into evolution and what are some tips for seeing right through the lies of others.

All this and more will be revealed.

There you have it! You can find the Stuff to Blow Your Mind podcast on iTunes, Zune and the RSS feed. And don’t forget the free HowStuffWorks App!
