My guest today is Jesse Singal, Jesse Singal is a journalist and author. He was a contributing writer for New York magazine for years and has written for The Atlantic and many other outlets, and he's now on Substack. Jesse and I discuss his new book, ‘The Quick Fix : Why Fad Psychology Can't Cure Our Social Ills’. We discussed the replication crisis in psychology, why so much psych research gets debunked in the long run. We talked about the problem with notions like self-esteem, power, posing, grit and other fads in psychology.
