We’ve all had that feeling — you meet someone new, and the conversation just flows. You’re in sync. You click. But what’s really happening when that magic occurs?My guest today is journalist Kate Murphy, author of <a href="https://amzn.to/4bfweCF" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Why We Click: The Emerging Science of Interpersonal Synchrony</a>, and she says this experience isn’t just a vibe, it’s a measurable physiological phenomenon and the most consequential social dynamic most people have never heard of. In our conversation, we dig into what happens when people click, why syncing with others feels so good, and how it influences everything from friendships to teamwork to romantic relationships. We also talk about why some people have a knack for connection, how you can become more “clickable,” and why video calls are the worst.Resources Related to the Podcast<ul><li><a href="https://www.dyingbreed.net/p/resonance-as-an-antidote-to-social" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dying Breed article: Resonance as an Antidote to Social Acceleration</a></li><li><a href="https://amzn.to/49AEf3I" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kate's previous book:&nbsp;You're Not Listening</a></li><li><a href="https://www.dyingbreed.net/p/sunday-firesides-be-someones-atmospheric" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sunday Firesides: Be Someone's Atmospheric Getaway</a></li><li><a href="https://www.artofmanliness.com/character/behavior/eye-contact/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AoM Article: The Importance of Eye Contact</a></li></ul>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
