Being colorblind doesn't mean you see in black and white, although in severe cases it can look a bit like that. The condition is on a spectrum ranging from dulled colors to shades of grey. Learn all about what colorblindness means in today's episode.
Josh and Chuck explore the fascinating science behind color blindness in this episode, breaking down everything from the history of the condition to how our eyes actually perceive color through rods and cones. They dive deep into the different types of color vision deficiency, from mild anomalies where certain cones are slightly misaligned to complete monochromacy where people see in black and white, plus they explain why men are far more likely to be color blind than women due to genetics. The guys also cover practical testing methods, surprising jobs that are affected by color blindness, and share a wild tidbit about how Japan discriminated against color-blind people for decades based on nothing but cultural bias and outdated fears.
