Hi, I'm Wendy Zuckerman and you're listening to Science Versus. Today is our last episode before we go on a little break to work on new episodes, which means that if you have an idea for us, something you want us to versus, we would absolutely love to hear it. There's an email, a phone number if you're in the US, there's social media accounts. It's all in the show notes.
So just have a look at the show notes, get in touch with us and tell us your great Science Versus idea. We always love hearing from you. Okay, but now it's time to start the show. This is the show that pits facts against inflated egos. Today we are talking about narcissism. So, of course, I've invited senior producer Rose Rimler. to tell me all about it.
It is blowing up right now. We're going to dive into the science of it. And we're here with senior producer Rose Ribbler. All right, Rose, question number one, is the world overrun with narcissists?
Oh, wow. From that argument that his wife just sort of threw out, you're a narcissist.
Uh-huh. And so to science, there is this distinction. There's a personality disorder narcissism and then just regular old garden variety narcissism.
Yeah, I mean, I remember it well, but I don't think we've moved away from the cultural moment of self-promotion.
Interesting.
Can we take it? Can I take it? Yeah. Gosh, when I just said, can I take it? I was like, is that a sign that I'm a narcissist?
It's like a BuzzFeed quiz where just a photo of Senator Palpatine is going to show up on the screen.
Okay, I'm in. I'm in. I'm in.
I'm going to say I have a natural talent.
I really like to be the center of attention. It makes me uncomfortable to be the center of attention.
Everybody likes to hear my stories. Sometimes I tell good stories.
I wish, right? Oh, my gosh. Wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone believed everything we said on Science Versus?
LAUGHTER
Okay.
I do want to hear about standard deviations, yes. Okay.
Got it.
Okay.
Those traits. You see more and more Wendy's, less and less roses.
