Season 3 Ep 2: Bling Empire & The Gift of Gab

First up in Poppin’ Culture we talk about toxic relationships and triangles in Netflix’s Bling Empire - and that friends interfering in these relationships can inadvertently push them to continue. Next up, we do a very fun deep dive into a new Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences article about the gift of gab, and how we decide to end conversations once they’ve started. A research team out of Harvard (Dr. Adam Mastroianni and Dr. Daniel Gilbert at Harvard, Dr. Gus Gooney at UPenn, and Dr. Timothy Whilson at the University of Virginia) recently found that we actually exit conversations pretty poorly - and we almost never end a conversation when either of us want to! Last up, a Good or Bad Advice segment where we break down signs your partner may be cheating from Worried Lovers.
