Show Notes

Welcome to Season 2.5 which is all about romantic love! In the first episode of this mini-season, Janhavi sits down with Dr Matt Hammond from the Psychology Department at Victoria University of Wellington. 

Romantic relationships involve seeking and giving support, and Matt talks about how the way you ask for support can impact the quality of support you get from your partner. Janhavi digs into a study Matt conducted about whether or not partners in long term relationships become similar over time. There’s also a rapid fire interlude, philosophical ponderings, and the eternal question: ‘What is love?’
