3 ABR. 2019 · In this episode of The Misanthropic Life, we discuss asynchronous or un-synchronized relationships. An asynchronous relationship is what you call any relationship that is a one-way or one-sided relationship. Social media encourages this form of human interaction but that interaction is a lot less "social" that it might appear.

13 MAR. 2019 · In this episode of the misanthropic life, we discuss how pseudo-scientific ideas have long been used to justify the worst human behaviors like racism, eugenics, and genocide. One of the most transparent of these justifications is the idea that your potential has more to do with your genetics than anything else.

13 FEB. 2019 · In this episode of the misanthropic life, we discuss the interesting world of cognitive biases. Have you ever seen someone judge another person for behavior they engage in themselves? This is called the "attribution effect". It is the tendency to attribute someone else's behavior to an internal characteristic, and excuse your own similar behavior as circumstantial.

8 FEB. 2019 · In this episode of the misanthropic life, we discuss the definition of family. This is a hotly debated topic today with many wishing to exclude families that don’t fit their "ideal" of what a family should look like. But is there an ideal family? Each era and culture has had a vastly different take on what family means. This argument, like so many other cultural battles will have repercussions for generations to come.

28 ENE. 2019 · In this inaugural episode of the misanthropic life, we discuss an extremely important topic; how superhero movies are getting much more adult narratives than they used to. In the last 10 years we have gone from Batman refusing to kill his most terrible enemy to actually attempting to murder his strongest ally. Why? What has happened in our culture to warrant such a violent shift in one of our most cherished stories? We discuss the reasons behind this change and what it means for the future.
