    Do Nice Guys Really Finish Last?
    Nov 14 2024

    For this special 10th anniversary episode of The Psychology Podcast, Scott draws on science to answer the age-old question: Do nice guys really finish last? First, Scott pinpoints exactly what women mean when they use terms such as “bad boy” and “nice guy.” Then he discusses the psychology of individuals who are primarily driven by selfish desires, and how they go about obtaining their mating goals. Then, Scott looks at what women actually want, including what some women want, and what some women want some of the time. Finally, Scott presents what he thinks are the most reasonable conclusions based on all of the current evidence and he offers advice for nice guys, women, and bad boys.

Best Psych Podcast Around

This podcast keeps me up to date on a variety of psych topics and what the research is saying. A good overview and launching pad for pursuing different psych interests. I love that Kaufman interviews not only those in the popular media but also prominent academics, allowing them to share their contributions to the field and their expertise. I look forward to these weekly episodes.
