Hello friends, welcome back to the show.

My guest today is Dr. Gadsad, he's an evolutionary psychologist, professor of marketing at Concordia

University, a podcaster and an author.

In today's fast-paced world, happiness and contentment often seem elusive.

By taking an evolutionary lens on happiness, we can gain deeper insights into why we are

the way we are and decode the contributing elements to living a good life.

Expect to learn where happiness actually comes from, why evolution cursed humans with the

ability to feel existential discontent, what people get wrong about defining and understanding

happiness, what role genetics plays, how to pick the right partner, whether married

people are more happy on average, why more sex doesn't equal more happiness, how you

can become more antifragile, and much more.

This Monday, another modern wisdom cinema episode, this time from my trip to London a couple

of weeks ago, and it is with Stephen Bartlett, host of the Diary of a CEO podcast, one

of the biggest podcasts in all of the UK, and we go for two and a half hours running through

a ton of rules and lessons for life, business, happiness, resilience and an awful lot more.

It was a lot of fun, and it's been a long time since Stephen was on the show, probably

three years, since the last time he was on, so if you want to make sure that you're not

going to miss that episode and all of the other fantastic ones I've got coming up over

the rest of the year, please make sure that you've hit the subscribe button, it ensures

you won't miss episodes, and it helps to support the show, it really does make a difference.

Plus it makes me very happy indeed, so go and do it.

I thank you.
