Resident pop culture expert, Xochi, and struggling PhD student, Siri, take you through the what? Why? And how? Of relationship research and what that means for your non-scientifically researched relationships. All of this research is coming out all the time, but academic literature can be intimidating and difficult to connect to “real life”. So let us do it for you! Siri will tell us all about what research is taking the psychology world by storm! On today’s episode, she will tell us all about long distance relationships. Are they good? Are they bad? Are they going to ruin your relationship or make it stronger? After hearing the research and evidence for or against LDRs, Xochi will baselessly speculate on people we do not know; celebrities!! Today Xoch will be discussing the relationship and break up of Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler.
