Things like why you forget what you walked into a room for. Whether your phone is listening. How much of your brain you actually use. The format is fixed and the format is the point.
Every episode follows the same four-beat structure. The question, phrased the way you would type it. The wrong answer people repeat at parties. The actual answer, with a peer-reviewed citation named on screen. A short punchline that closes the loop. That is the whole show.
The discipline is the receipts. If kuz says walking through a doorway erases your short-term memory, the screen shows you Radvansky, Notre Dame, 2011, three experiments. If kuz says you use 100 percent of your brain, the screen shows you Beyerstein's 2004 Scientific American review. Every claim is checkable. Every source is real. If a study gets retracted, the page gets a banner and the video gets a correction.
what kuz covers
Brain science. Perception. Memory. Behavior. The small surprising mechanics of being a person. Episodes lean toward questions that are easy to google but hard to answer well. The 10 percent of the brain myth. The doorway effect. Why your phone feels like it is listening to you. Why time runs faster as you age.
how kuz is made
Each episode is sourced before it is scripted. Citations land in a public list on the episode page on kuz.co.za along with a full transcript. The video itself is shot vertical for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Instagram Reels. The web page is the canonical home and carries the longer write-up plus every source link.
