The Emotions Lab

Feelings Through History

Welcome to The Emotions Lab – an historical laboratory where we use the past to understand our feelings in the present.

Listen to our “mind-blowing” series, The Sound of Anger, winner of two British Podcast Awards.

Wrath, revenge, all the rages

Worried about nervousness, dread, and insecurity?

Who cares?

Revolting revulsions and loathsome abominations

Getting out of your head

Emotional responses to death

In pursuit of pleasure

All by myself

Longings, feelings, rings

From sickness to sentiment

The joy of the epic fail

The meaning of weeping
