Description

What makes everyone like him so easily?  Why does she bug me so much?  Why are they so weird?  Why do I always do that?  Why do I always let that person make me feel that way?    


Aaron is a multi-award winning radio host and Mitch is a psych professor, previously the Chief Science Officer for the American Psychological Association.  Together, they talk about the social stuff we all experience, why it happens, and what it tells us about ourselves.  It's light, interesting, and fun.  It's That Popular Podcast.

Which crowd were you in when you were in high school? Are you still in that crowd now? How do these crowds develop and what do they tell us about who we are?
Ever notice that two people in the exact same situation may notice totally different things, or have a completely different take on what just happened? There’s a reason why and it usually tells us a lot about who we are.
Are fulfilling relationships the point of life? Do they have to be relationships with humans? In a very short time, a very large proportion of kids (and adults!) are having relationships with AI bots that often pretend to be human, but are they offering what we need to replace human relationships?
Where do they find these people and is it weird that they become so emotionally attached so quickly? What is friendship, how do we define it, and how do your friendships measure up?
