Tue, 03 Nov 2026 - 278 - How to argue better and resolve conflicts without being miserable with Buster Benson
Arguing can be frustrating ... but it doesn't have to be! Luckily, there's a better way to argue. If you're wondering how to win an argument, I invite you to change the way you think. Don't ask yourself, "How do I win?" Ask yourself, "How do WE win?" Productive disagreement is a handy tool in your conflict resolution toolkit. Use it. No—REALLY use it, because the best arguments are where both people end up winners (or at least, the other person doesn't feel like they've totally failed at putting their socks on). In this video, I invited argument expert Buster Benson @busterbenson7413 . He's the author of the book, "Why Are We Yelling?: The Art of Productive Disagreement" and a master at having good arguments.

Tue, 03 Nov 2026 - 211 - Do You Ever Feel Like People Are Talking About You Behind Your Back?
Are people talking behind your back? I have this little problem: I tend to think that people are talking about me behind my back. It’s totally paranoid and ridiculous, but I wanted to know if I was alone. We all had the horrible feeling of being hurt when you discover that someone was talking about you behind your back.So, I asked our Twitter followers if they agreed with this statement: “I often think people are talking about me behind my back.” There is science to back up this paranoia. For more on the science, check out our article HERE: https://www.scienceofpeople.com/gossiping/Do you have the same paranoia as me?

Tue, 27 Oct 2026 - 209 - The Science of Emotions
Interested in the science of emotions? How do emotions work? I’ve always been fascinated by how our emotions work. To me, it intuitively seemed like they’re all in our heads.

My perspective changed when I read an amazing study by Aalto University that revealed that we experience our feelings in different and specific parts of our body.I hope this video is helpful to you!
