Why Are You Like This?

This week on the podcast, we’re talking all about disappearing. And this is not a magic show— we’re talking everything from faking your own abduction to ghosting someone. Think you can hang with the Gone Girls and Runaway Brides of the world?

Anna Nicole Smith and J. Howard Marshall. Heather Mills and Paul McCartney. Kevin Federline and Britney Spears. That’s right— this week, we’re talking about gold diggers. Are they all money hungry leeches, or is it all public opinion? And if money is a value, is pursuing it in love ever okay?

“Comparison is the death of joy,” according to Mark Twain. And this is just one of the possibly misquoted quotes we’re bringing to you as we play the comparison game. This week, we’re talking about how we compare ourselves to other, how it feels, and the crazy things competition drives us to do.

This week we’re diving into another personality typing system. Because honestly, how could we not? We’re dissecting the Big Five this week and all of its not-so-binary inner workings.

This week on the podcast we’re diving into conversation about solitary confinement. We talk what your Psychology 101 professor told you, feral children, and if we’d spend a year in prison for a million dollars.

On our Season 2 Premiere (!!!), we are talking all about Object Sexuality. We’ll attempt to dissect the sexual relationships people engage in with inanimate objects and explain how one can have a sexual encounter with national landmarks.

The week we are closing out our first season of Why Are You Like This? with a special New Year’s Edition! The most fitting thing seemed to be talking about the most memorable New Year’s of our lifetime: Y2K. So tune in to find out who thought the world was gonna end, and what Bill Clinton had to say about the whole thing. Happy New Year to everybody who has supported us in 2018– we’ll be back again after a two week hiatus for Season 2 with fresh episodes and hot new takes!

And a Festivus for the rest of us! That’s right, we’re coming at you live (well, not live...) on Christmas Day this year to talk all about Kris Kringle, Santa, and Saint Nick himself. Where did all this Santa stuff start? And is lying to kids harmless, even in the spirit of the holidays?

This week on the pod, we’re talking all about “peaking.” What does it mean to peak? Are the best days of your life really over already— and how do you know?

This week on the pod, we’re talking all about Introverts and Extroverts. (And dare we mention, Ambiverts?) Can you be outgoing and introverted? Extroverted and quiet? All the misconceptions and truths about this polarizing topic are coming at you.
