Episode Description from the Publisher

When was the last time you saw an example of a happy marriage in the media? I discuss the negative portrayal of marriage in modern media and the cultural shift away from positive representations. Happy marriages are common and the lack of similar narratives in popular culture is painfully obvious. I talk about the psychology behind this phenomenon and why I think marriage is portrayed in such a negative light. _____________________________What Is Marriage Isn’t Dead?Marriage Isn’t Dead is an organization focusing on practical self-improvement advice for marriage, dating, career, work/life balance, entrepreneurship, parenting, and a healthy lifestyle.
