Warning: This episode contains some graphic information and all season we will be talking about some less than savory topics.
Episode 111 of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology moves us into a continuation of the Year of Clickbait with FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY/PSYCHOLOGY OF SERIAL KILLERS! This Fall we are going to discuss forensic psychology, serial killers, and the worst of human behavior. We are joined all season by Dr. Sarah Tracy, a counseling psychologist who teaches and engages with the study of serial killers.
In this episode we discuss the last of our Dark Triad episodes, the 3rd, Machiavellianism. Cynical power-hungry people, 500-year-old political philosophy, and the nature of the callous ruler. We discuss how they are different from narcissists and psychopaths and why there isn’t a Machiavellian Personality Disorder…. yet?
