The Halo Effect: Why It’s So Difficult To Understand The Past via @hiddenbrain

This is the latest episode of one of my favorite podcasts:

“Judy, Lyn and Donna Ulrich were driving to a volleyball game when their Ford Pinto was hit from behind by a Chevy van. The Pinto caught fire, and the three teenagers were burned to death.

And we ask, is it possible to fairly evaluate our past actions when we know how things turned out? Source: The Halo Effect: Why It’s So Difficult To Understand The Past : Hidden Brain“
