  • Summary

  • They say falling in love is like getting high. Who are "they"? Well, whoever "they" are, they happen to be right. Your brain is very well versed in two things: pleasure and pain. And love, drugs, all the feelings, it's all just pleasure and pain baby. But what if there was an anti-love drug? A pill you can pop whenever your heart of glass breaks? Some medicine to wash away the remnants of a lover that left you with a love that you can't leave behind? This week I'm joined by Brian D. Earp, co-author of LOVE DRUGS: The Chemical Future of Relationships, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, Associate Director of the Yale Hastings Program in Ethics and Health Policy at Yale University to discuss exactly that. Does it exist? Can it exist? How would it work? Would it really work? You know, just some heavy duty, sophisticated questions of a certain calibre of intelligence. Be forewarned. Look, the point is, he is really smart. And he is here to talk to us about my favourite subject and I think possibly the only thing I ever actually talk about: love. Ok, let's go mend these broken hearts, shall we?
