Neuroscientist Dr. Nicole Tertreault breaks down what happens in our brain and body when rage takes over. From stress hormones to our nervous system to "flight," "fight," “fawn”, and "flop" reactions, we explore the science of anger in this first installment of our Rage Room series with Dr. Tertreault. Also, we find out if Inside Out nailed it or not.

We all have rage, and if you don’t think you have it, don’t worry we’ll help you find it. And once you find it, we’ll also help you deal with it. This podcast is the intersection of all the life things (family, love, politics, sports, driving, loud chewing) and rage. Hosted by comedians Tara Erickson and Ebar, they talk to guests (ranging from neuroscientists to divorce experts to athletes to a neighbor) about how rage factors into their various areas of expertise. When they’re not doing that, they’re listening to calls from the rage hotline, screaming into a pillow or checking in with the show’s producer Friendy Wende who’s likely telling them to move on.
