The second season of ClariTalks begins with a love story. When 17-year-old Seth arrived in a Guatemalan airport to meet his 27-year-old future fiance, he rushed over and hugged her tightly. It was “everything romance novels talk about,” Seth says. From that high point, everything fell apart for Seth and his ten-years-older love interest, leaving our protagonist to pick up the pieces of a broken relationship and reconsider his views on family and the good life. In this episode, Jack Kubinec tells Seth’s story alongside interviews with an aspiring archaeologist and a PhD student in sociology with the goal of shedding light on this core question: how does family factor into the good life?
