THE SOCIAL INSTINCT: the wonderful wizard of ostracization

Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) and Alice (so/sp 9w1 973) talk about the social instinct. The hosts explore their own personal experiences of being social first, contemplate the through-line of so/sp and so/sx, and zoom out to see the social instinct in a larger context of how society is or isn't handling it very well.
