Episode Details

Your body is running a rhythm game 24/7—and missing the beat has real, life-threatening consequences. From the tiniest neuron cluster in your brain (the suprachiasmatic nucleus) orchestrating your organs like a master conductor, to how eating, sleeping, and taking medication at the wrong time damages your health, this episode uses gaming metaphors to explain why timing is everything. Learn how your body's 14-minute circadian symphony keeps you alive, and what happens when you break the beat.
