In a recent podcast episode, Dr. Greg, Brian, and Gus engaged in a heartfelt discussion about several compelling psychology studies. They explored how the pandemic-era practice of mask-wearing influenced perceptions of trust, the emotional relief gained from physically discarding negative feedback, and the ways personality traits play a role in relationship satisfaction. The conversation took a deeper dive into the troubling links between misogyny, substance abuse, and the role of social media in fostering negative attitudes towards women. The speakers stressed the urgency of addressing these issues to foster a safer, more inclusive society. They wrapped up the episode by urging listeners to remain mindful and proactive in combating societal harms, promoting kindness, flexibility, and presence in everyday interactions.
