1045 - Dealing with emotionally immature parents? We want your questions!

All In The Mind is a weekly program and podcast produced by ABC Radio National (RN) that investigates the intricacies of the human brain, mind, and behavior. Hosted by journalist Sana Qadar, who took over the role in 2021, the show explores a wide array of psychological and neurological subjects. Its coverage ranges from the fundamental mechanics of memory and addiction to the intersection of technology and human cognition, including the impact of artificial intelligence.

The program adopts an evidence-led approach, combining interviews with scientists and researchers with personal accounts from individuals whose lives are affected by the topics under discussion. Episodes are typically structured around specific themes that impact daily life and social structures, such as the psychology of stress, the nature of interpersonal relationships, and the development of mental health conditions. Recent episodes have examined subjects like the psychological implications of cosmetic procedures, the challenges of long-distance space travel, and the field of forensic psychology.

In addition to its standard feature-length episodes, the series includes segments such as "Mind Hacks," where guests provide practical tips regarding mental well-being. This format is designed to bridge the gap between academic research and public understanding, translating scientific data into narrative-driven audio.

Produced in Australia, the series is a core component of the ABC’s science and health programming. The production team, including various producers and sound engineers, focuses on current research and emerging trends within the behavioral sciences. All In The Mind functions as both a contemporary report on the state of psychology and an archive of the evolving understanding of the human mental universe.
