39 分钟I'm Alex Schwartz. I'm Nomi Frey.
I'm Vincent Cunningham, and this is Critics at Large,
a New Yorker podcast for the culturally curious.
Each week, we're going to talk about a big idea that's showing up across the cultural landscape,
and we'll trace it through all the mediums we love.
Books, movies, television, music, art.
And I always want to talk about celebrity gossip, too.
Of course.
We hope you'll join us for new episodes each Thursday.
Follow Critics at Large today, wherever you get podcasts.
You're listening to How to Be a Better Human.
I'm your host, Chris Duffy.
When it comes to romantic relationships, they often start with a lot of mystery.
We're always trying to figure out what does this person like?
What's their favorite food?
What makes them laugh?
Where are we going to go together?
Later on, after you've been together for a while,
sometimes we lose a little bit of that curiosity about the specificity of the other person and what our relationship with them is going to look like.
Instead, we can sometimes get bogged down in ideas about what a relationship is supposed to be.
