Name Doppelgangers - a podcast by WNYC

What's in a name? We take some time to examine the importance of names with Dr. Jean Twenge, Professor of Psychology at San Diego State University and author of the bookiGEN: Why Today's Super-Connected Kids Are Growing Up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy--and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood--and What That Means for the Rest of Us. We also discuss the phenomenon of "name doppelgangers"-- someone who shares your exact same name and take calls about name twins!
