In this week's episode, Vicky discovers she's actually married to a robot. Or possibly an android. Either way, she's alarmed and confused, because Joe doesn't ever talk to himself. He has no inner dialogue. Which makes the inside of his head considerably calmer than the inside of hers. This week, the hosts talk about the way we talk to ourselves, the negativity bias, and why we all ought to be a bit more bloody kind to ourselves. And each other.
