For decades, statisticians, social scientists, psychologists and even nobel prize winning economists have devoted extensive time studying whether or not streaks exist. Can someone – from gamblers to stock analysts to 3 point shooters and others actually have the “hot hand”? Is it science? Or myth?

Welcome to the Health, Wellness & Performance Podcast. Today’s guest is best-selling author and popular national columnist Ben Cohen. My son, the world’s biggest basketball fan and medical school student, read his book The Hot Hand and couldn’t stop talking about it. Then I read it and had the same response. Thankfully, Ben agreed to join us and you are going to be stunned by some of the things you’re about to learn.
