We’ve been there. Squirrel turns learning and conditioning into a story, then helps you spot the concept when the story changes. Listen, connect the dots, and try it yourself.

A few good questions.
What exactly does the course cover?
Learning and conditioning: classical conditioning and its components; extinction, recovery, generalization, and discrimination; operant conditioning and the four consequences; reinforcement schedules; and observational learning. See the seven-episode outline above.
Is this for my Psychology 101 class?
It is designed around common introductory psychology concepts. Compare the topic list with your instructor’s syllabus. It is a focused review of learning and conditioning, not a complete psychology degree or full-semester course.
Will this guarantee a particular exam score?
No. You’ll practice identifying and explaining concepts in new scenarios, but your exam result depends on your syllabus, starting knowledge, practice, and the assessment. An 80% practice target is a study goal, not a grade guarantee.
How do I listen after buying?
After payment, you’ll return to your course library in this browser. Your access is saved with a secure cookie. Use the same browser to return through “My course,” and keep your payment receipt.
Is it a subscription?
No. The course is a single $5 USD purchase. Any applicable taxes and coupon discounts are shown at checkout before you pay.
Can I listen to a sample first?
Yes. The player at the top has a 45-second excerpt from Episode 1. It uses the same voices and tone as the course. It contains strong language.
