David's top stories: Dystopian Silicon Valley crosswalk hack; and Agnostics are more neurotic. Gary Direnfeld joins the show for Therapy Thursdays on a Wednesday. David reads A Narcissist's Prayer, and he and Gary discuss strategies for dealing with narcissists. Dr. Zachary Neal presents childfree living and how the number of nonparents who never want children is growing. Dr. Julian Givi explains that when you invite yourself somewhere, you're more welcome than you think. On Sex, Et Cetera, David asks Samantha Bitty whether inviting someone to a wedding is rude.
