Podcast: The Next Big Idea (LS 59 · TOP 0.5% what is this?)
Episode: RELATIONSHIPS: Why Everything You Know About Them Is (Mostly) Wrong
Pub date: 2022-06-09

Eric Barker is not a people person. “Getting me to write a relationship book,” he says, “is like asking Godzilla to improve the infrastructure in your city.” But he did it anyway. Guided by leading social psychologists, Eric went on a journey to understand what he was getting wrong about relationships — and what he could do to turn things around. The result is “Plays Well With Others,” a guide to friendship, intimacy, loneliness, and belonging that our curator Daniel Pink says will “revitalize your life.”
