Peak Parasocial: The social relationships that aren't

  • Resumen

  • This Isn't Therapy... it's the episode about parasocial relationships; the one-sided emotional connections we have with casual acquaintances, people we "know" online, characters we watch in television and movies, and people we admire from afar. In this episode, Jake and Simon talk about some examples from pop culture, such as Chappell Roan's desire to set boundaries as a celebrity and Sabrina Carpenter's previous relationship. In addition, they pull examples from two articles to answer one curious question: Have we reached Peak Parasocial?

    Article 1:
    In a Celebrity-Obsessed World, Have We Reached Peak Parasocial? By Anna Cafolla

    Article 2: What are parasocial relationships doing to our brains? By Allegra Rosenberg
