It's "Science News You Can Use" radio, with Amy Alkon and Dr. Jennifer Verdolin.

Starting from the evolutionary origins of friendship -- "Let's pair up so we won't get eaten!" -- we go on to explain some unexpected findings about friendship, along with how to be a friend, how to win friends, how to end friendships that are toxic or have run their course...and much more.

About the show: This is a very special every-other-Sunday-night show with science-based advice columnist and author Amy Alkon and animal behaviorist and author Dr. Jennifer Verdolin laying out science news you can use to solve your relationship problems or just improve your relationships and have a better life. 

And don’t forget to buy our science-based and amusing books -- supporting our show while entertaining yourself and learning a thing or two to improve your life. Amy’s new book is "Good Manners for Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck" and Jennifer’s is "Wild Connection: What Animal Courtship and Mating Tell Us about Human Relationships."
