Hi everyone Dan Heath here we've been getting lots of messages from

listeners wondering about more episodes of choiceology and I'm here with news,

very good news. Season 2 is coming and for the record it only took about a tenth of the time that you wait between Game of Thrones season.

So I hope we get some credit for that.

This season will be a new journey with drum roll please a new host

I'm working on a new book right now that has sort of taken over my life and as a result of that I am

passing the baton to someone significantly more capable and competent than me.

Her name is Katie Milkman. She's a professor of operations information and most importantly for us, decisions at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

Katie is terrific. She's at the forefront of behavioral economics research. I've cited her work many times in my own books.

And honestly, in my mind, she's like the working man and woman's behavioral economist.

She is particularly good at helping us find real concrete practical ways to make better decisions

in our lives.

You could not be in better hands folks.

So ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Katie

Katie, what do you have lined up for us in season two?

Well, first, thanks for that incredibly generous introduction, Dan. I know so many

listeners will miss you immensely and I am one of them. But in season two, we're

going to be diving into new topics. Things I've studied as a scientist and that my Wharton

MBA students find particularly fascinating along with new stories and

real world experiments. So there's a lot to get excited about. We'll feature

sports heroes, Nobel laureates, and everyday folks faced with monumental decisions.

And I'm excited to introduce you to even more insights from the brilliant behavioral economists around the world who make up my community of friends.
