05 - Do You Want it Darker? The Dark Triad of Personality

05 - This week we're taking a look at the Dark Triad - psychopathy, narcissism and machiavellianism. Amy provides some definitions before we compare notes on a collection of interesting articles. From cyber aggression to succeeding at work, the Dark Triad has been linked to a variety of behaviours, relational patterns and characteristics. We end the episode with some highly rigorous in-house research by Hunter on his Harry Potter house, self-diagnose a touch of misophonia and consider the relational impact of phubbing.
