Episode 10 - Why Xmas Is a Cult & Love Actually Is an HR Nightmare

Episode 12 - The Psychology of Sports, Religion & Belonging

Sports are supposed to be entertainment — so why does the World Cup feel like a national crisis, Arsenal losing ruin your weekend, and the Knicks winning feel like a personal achievement? In this episode, we unpack the psychology of sports fandom: why complete strangers can control our mood, why grown adults paint their faces and cry over games, how supporting a team becomes part of your identity, and whether sports are basically just socially acceptable cults. From World Cup fever and Premier League obsession to the sudden rise of Knicks fans in New York, we explore tribalism, belonging, nationalism, religion, and why football might just be astrology for men. 🎧 Listen now to Psychology 1-0-Dumb — therapy-adjacent, funnier, and way cheaper.

Episode 11 - LinkedIn Ruined Self-Improvement

New Year, new you — or the same you with a gym membership you’ll quit by February? Cansu and Has break down the psychology of resolutions: why we set impossible goals, why panic is our only real motivator, and how LinkedIn turned waking up early into “leadership.” From procrastination and achievement anxiety to hustle-culture delusions, they figure out why self-improvement sometimes helps — and mostly just stresses you out. 🎧 Psychology 1-0-Dumb — therapy-adjacent, funnier, and way cheaper.

Episode 10 - Why Xmas Is a Cult & Love Actually Is an HR Nightmare

Christmas is meant to be joyful — so why does it turn grown adults into emotional wrecks arguing over traditions? In this episode, we unpack the psychology of Christmas: why family makes you regress instantly, why expectations ruin the holiday every year, how gift-giving becomes passive-aggressive warfare, and whether Christmas is actually just a socially accepted cult (spoiler: kind of). From Love Actually being a workplace HR violation to why January should legally be banned, we cover it all with 0 credentials. 🎧 Listen now to Psychology 1-0-Dumb — therapy-adjacent, funnier, and way cheaper.
