Episode Synopsis

Send us a textYour brain loves patterns—even when they don’t exist. This is the clustering illusion, a cognitive bias that makes us see trends, streaks, and meaning in random events. It’s why athletes believe in “hot hands,” why gamblers think they’re on a lucky streak, and why we sometimes mistake short-term results for long-term truths. In today’s episode of The Daily Drive, we break down why your brain craves patterns, how this illusion can lead to bad decisions, and how to train yourself to think more clearly. If you want to make smarter choices and avoid getting fooled by randomness, this episode is for you.
