2. Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
Paris meets someone whose boyfriend lied to her for several months, and another story of a woman who stood up against her government’s corruption, by telling the truth.
Being lied to and being encouraged to lie are stories explored in this episode, with a woman who was led down a garden path by a man and a political activist who stood up against corruption and lies.
Professor of neuroscience Tali Sahrot helps Paris look at the lies we tell about ourselves on the internet and what they reveal about who we really are. Does lying destroy our trust in each other or can it be used to bind us closer?
