Meredith has long been interested in the Kinsey Institute, a place were researchers focus their work on sex and relationships.
In this episode, Meredith interviews Kinsey Executive Director Justin Garcia about his new book, “The Intimate Animal: The Science of Sex, Fidelity, and Why We Live and Die for Love.”
Meredith read the book in one sitting.
Her conversation with Justin covers many topics including monogamy, emotional intimacy, and how to keep long relationships working.
They also discuss the concept of “slow love,” and why younger people think of marriage as the end of a road, as opposed to the beginning.
