  • #65. Mainstreaming of the Far-Right - Dr. Aaron Winter
    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Dr. Aaron Winter, senior lecturer in sociology at Lancaster University and Director of the Centre for Alternatives to Social and Economic Inequalities (CASEI), to unpack the complex rise and normalization of far-right ideologies. From his personal roots in anti-racist activism to his research on racism, terrorism, and structural inequality, Dr. Winter explores how mainstream institutions, media, and political parties have helped legitimize far-right narratives. We discuss the myth of the “white working class” grievance, how race and class are falsely divided, the political misuse of populism, and the dangers of platforming hate under the guise of public discourse. An essential listen for anyone concerned about democracy, justice, and the future of inclusive politics.Dr. Aaron Winter: https://www.lancaster.ac.uk/sociology/people/aaron-winter Support the showSupport us and reach out!https://smoothbrainsociety.comhttps://www.patreon.com/SmoothBrainSocietyInstagram: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTikTok: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTwitter/X: @SmoothBrainSocFacebook: @thesmoothbrainsocietyMerch and all other links: Linktreeemail: thesmoothbrainsociety@gmail.com

  • #63. Sex Disclosures in Romantic Relationships - Katie Knowles
    How much do we really talk about sex in our relationships — and when should we? In this episode, Sahir and Olivia sit down with relationships researcher Katie Knowles to unpack the psychology of sex disclosure, why most people in relationships hover around a "3.5 out of 5," and how attachment styles can shape what we share (and what we don’t). We go on to discuss some surprisingly relatable results from Katie's current research and where the future of intimacy and relationships is headed.Katie Knowles recently published a research paper reviewing all the present literature around sexual self disclosures. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/388959085_Meta-Analyzing_People's_Self-Disclosure_of_Sexual_Information_to_Romantic_PartnersSupport the showSupport us and reach out!https://smoothbrainsociety.comhttps://www.patreon.com/SmoothBrainSocietyInstagram: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTikTok: @thesmoothbrainsocietyTwitter/X: @SmoothBrainSocFacebook: @thesmoothbrainsocietyMerch and all other links: Linktreeemail: thesmoothbrainsociety@gmail.com

Acerca de Smooth Brain Society

In an attempt to change the way information is presented, we’ll be speaking to researchers, experts, and all round wrinkly brained individuals, making them simplify what they have to say and in turn, hopefully, improving our understanding of a broad range of topics rooted in psychology. Join us as we try to develop ourselves, one brain fold at a time.Instagram: @thesmoothbrainsociety TikTok: @thesmoothbrainsocietyYoutube: @thesmoothbrainsocietyFacebook: @thesmoothbrainsocietyThreads: @thesmoothbrainsocietyX/twitter: @smoothbrainsochttps://linktr.ee/thesmoothbrainsociety
