  What happens when Mindy tries to master the world’s loudest, most complicated musical instrument? In this episode about practice, memory, and the amazing ability of the brain to learn, Mindy and Guy Raz embark on a hilariously noisy adventure involving a baseball stadium organ, a very frustrated music teacher, and enough noise to shatter windows! Along the way, you’ll discover what happens inside the brain when we practice something again and again, how neurons can become more organized with repetition, and why getting better at something takes more than simply wishing you were good at it. This episode is packed with musical mayhem, laugh-out-loud hijinks, fascinating brain science, and one very important question: Can practice really make permanent?Why does practicing something over and over help you remember it? What actually changes inside your brain when you keep working at a new skill? And could studying tiny mouse brains help scientists understand how our own brains learn and remember? Mindy and Guy Raz explore a fascinating study from researchers at UCLA and Rockefeller University, who trained mice to recognize and remember scents in a specific order while observing the neurons in their brains.
