It was a real pleasure to discuss #AMR risk communication and my ongoing work on metaphors with the #theAMRstudio podcast! @UAC_UU

Many thanks for having me!

We use metaphors all the time without even thinking about it—and they have the power to change our thoughts and actions. @EM_Krockow explains how. https://t.co/Q655bahn2x
