Presented by Orion Taraban, Psy.D. PsycHacks provides listeners with a brief, thought-provoking episode several days a week on a variety of psychological topics, inspired by my clinical practice. The intention is for the core idea contained within each episode to inspire listeners to see something about themselves or their world in a slightly different light.

I learned way too much about man and women!!!
But also about myself and how to navigate through life.
Every Episode is full of great content.

This dude - as I used to call him - used to rub me up the wrong way often on IG during covid with his take on dating and especially women. But I’m a person who finds it’s interesting listening to new viewpoints. So I’d listen to the full videos when they popped up.. and after a while I began to see Dr Taraban’s point. I even bought his audiobook, the value of others, which I would highly recommend. It can be a bit jarring hearing the truth we all try to hide. I guess it’s a game we were all taug... more
There’s an obvious heavy conservative lean to this persons viewpoint. He seeks to make you fit in the little box he deems appropriate for you. It is categorically inappropriate for him to present like an authority when it is so clear there is much of his personal feelings about gender roles etc. enters the conversation. He’s skewering the information to fit his narrative. Don’t trust him.
Wonderful opportunity to self reflect and see yourself and your relationships in a different perspective
I like what Orion talks about but the constant ads are so annoying, it feels likes like every two minutes there’s a ad
