S05 E06: Human Nature

This week, we (unknowingly) explore various facets of social psychology: the bombings in Boston and the Internet's response; memes, and how people, shockingly, are unoriginal; the social shift noticeable through the coming out of gay athletes; our fascination with horror films and, for not always unrelated reasons, tattoos. Enjoy!

 Nothing says "Mayday" like 'NSYNC GIFs, right?

Made my day. Thanks!

I would have to disagree with Alissa. ASR is not semi-entertaining. It is quasi-entertaining!

First time hearing Grizzly Bear - Yet Again. Great song.

Until the next one, bye
