The problem with an audio podcast is you can’t lay your mortal eyes on just how damn good looking we are! That might be to our advantage; we’re such stunners that you all would do nothing but think about us all the time if you had to actually watch us speak. Really, just letting you hear our golden voices is a gift you should cherish.

Okay, so we’re average looking guys with average voices, but for some people, the self-love-fest is in constant effect! From Narcissus admiring his reflection in a pool of water to Kim Kardashian releasing a book of carefully composed selfies, narcissists are around us all. It’s a fascinating topic, so…we of course decided to make it the topic of this week’s episode.

We begin by talking about when we first became aware of narcissism — and quickly move on to what causes some people to become narcissists. After that, we discuss whether of not we consider ourselves narcissistic…and if others might.

Most of us at least have one feature or thing about ourselves that we love. We talk about the closest we lean toward narcissism before talking about why some are so quick to label others narcissists.

There’s no denying that social media can feed into a narcissistic routine. We discuss how social media has affected narcissism and even devote some time to discussing the rise of the selfie.

If you’ve ever been around a truly narcissistic person, you know it can be tough dealing with the constant self-love-fest. We talk about the hardest aspect of narcissism to deal with, and then devote some time to chatting about the most narcissistic person we know.

Narcissists can make great characters. We talk about our favorite narcissists from film, television, or literature for a bit. After that, we discuss if there are any benefits to being a narcissist.

We wrap up this week’s episode pondering this: will there always be narcissism in the world?

If you can tear yourself free from the looking glass long enough, we’d love to hear your thoughts about this week’s episode in the comments below.
