Welcome to Skeptical Sunday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. Today I'm here with Skeptical Sunday co-host, writer and researcher Jessica Wynne. On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker, and during the week, we have long form conversations with a variety of amazing folks.

From spies to CEOs, athletes, authors, thinkers, performers. On Sundays, though, it's Skeptical Sunday, a rotating guest co-host and I will break down a topic you may have never thought about and debunk common misconceptions about that topic. Topics like astrology, recycling, chemtrails, GMOs, toothpaste, crystal healing, and more. And if you're new to the show or you want to tell your friends about the show, I suggest our episode starter packs. These are collections of our favorite episodes on persuasion, negotiation, psychology,

disinformation, junk science, crime and cults, and more that'll help new listeners get a taste of everything we do here on the show, just visit jordanharbinger.com slash start or search for us in your Spotify app to get started. Today on the show, it's possible you know someone who's left-handed, or maybe you're one of those people who insists on announcing it every time you pick up a pen. Aside from the fact that lefties use their left hand to write, play sports, do everyday tasks, you probably don't know much else about left-handed folks. As a lefty myself, I'm also curious what makes me a lefty in the first place. What gives us our handedness to get to the right or left side of things is writer and researcher Jessica Wynne.
