Ep. 33 - Preview! The Science of Friendship
About this episode
Here's scientific proof that friends are good for you!
We're trying something new this episode. Listen as we chat with Lydia Denworth, author of Friendship: The Evolution, Biology, and Extraordinary Power of Life's Fundamental Bond.
Then join us at Science on Tap at the Kiggins Theatre in Vancouver, WA on Wednesday, February 12 to hear her full talk.
We'll record that talk as well, so check back for the full episode in the next few months.
Also, you should definitely buy her book.
