Live from IF Oxford - with Robin Dunbar and Max Dickins

In a live episode recorded at The Bullingdon as part of IF Oxford, Rosie chats to anthropologist and evolutionary psychologist Robin Dunbar and author Max Dickins about friendship - why why we need friends, how many friends we can have, friendship breakups, the ambiguous language of friendship, the When Harry Met Sally (or when Sally met Sally) question, Jane Austen's observations on relationships, whether a close romantic friendship could ever count as 'cheating', the differences between (straight) male and female friendships and the experience of people with identities beyond those binaries. 

Recorded at The Bullingdon as part of IF Oxford on 17 October 2023.
