Episode 14 - God Is Expensive: The Psychology of MegachurchesSep 16, 2026 · 36 minMegachurches promise more than a Sunday sermon. They offer community, purpose, salvation — and, apparently, enough donations for a private jet.
In this episode, we unpack the psychology of megachurches: why charismatic leaders are so persuasive, why thousands of people worshipping together can feel so powerful, and what authority bias, the halo effect, prosperity theology and Taylor Swift concerts have to do with it. Plus, we build our perfect pastors and ask why giving 10% of your income feels different when God is involved.

In this episode, we unpack the psychology of marriage: how it evolved from an economic institution into a search for love, identity and happiness, why our expectations have skyrocketed, and what attachment theory, dating apps, Henry VIII and diamond rings have to do with it.

- Episode 12 - The Psychology of Sports, Religion & BelongingJun 23, 2026 · 28 minSports 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.
