In Part 2 of our conversation with Mo Gawdat, former Chief Business Officer at Google X, bestselling author of Solve for Happy and Scary Smart, and entrepreneur, I ask him the hard question: Why are we so unlucky in love?Dating apps don't seem to want you to find love. They want you to keep swiping. We break down the dopamine trap of modern dating, then introduce Emma: an AI that spends hours getting to know you, matches you on 450+ hidden parameters — attachment styles, love languages, chemistry — and even acts as your AI wing woman. Not a dating app. A relationship app built to find you true love and fight the loneliness epidemic.This is probably one of my favorite conversations that I've ever had, and I'm so excited for you to listen to it.

In this episode, Richard Grannon returns for a third time to explore the people surrounding narcissists — the enablers, the golden children, the black sheep, and everyone caught in the narcissist's orbit. We dive deep into the differences between grandiose and covert narcissism, how each type operates in the real world, and the devastating impact covert narcissistic parenting has on children. From manufactured moral outrage and emotional incest to the long-term effects on adult relationships, this conversation covers the full spectrum of narcissistic abuse dynamics. We also discuss whether social media is manufacturing more narcissists, the loneliness epidemic, and practical dating advice for spotting manipulation before it's too late.Do me a favour and click the subscribe button so you don't miss this season's line up of amazing guests like Richard!
