The Sociopaths Among Us: How to Spot (and Avoid) a Dark Triad

The podcast explores the "Dark Triad" personality traits—narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy—and their impact on relationships and society. It identifies that approximately 7% of the population exhibits these traits and are often found in artistic, creative, social careers, politics, and show business. The podcast details how Dark Triads manipulate others, exaggerate their worth, distrust others, act impulsively, break rules, and lie. In romantic relationships, they are confident, outgoing, favor short-term mating, and exaggerate their success to seduce partners, often escalating conflicts during breakups. The podcast advises listeners to recognize these traits to protect themselves and seek out individuals embodying the "Light Triad"—faith in humanity, humanism, and a belief in universal moral law.
