Florida's 89.1 WUFT-FM Morning Edition host, Glenn Richards, speaks with Alix Spiegel and Hanna Rosin, hosts of NPR's Invisibilia (heard Saturdays at 3pm on 89.1 WUFT-FM). The third season is underway and this time, they’re tackling the nature of reality … probing a radically new way of looking at some fundamental questions: Where do emotions come from? Can racism be cured? How is it that two people can look out the window at the exact same thing and see something completely different?
