Episode 148: CAPE Book Club 11: Positive Stress

Episode 148 of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology moves us into something new, with a discussion of FAN PSYCHOLOGY! This Spring we are going to be going chapter to chapter in a book we both co-authored. Here you will find commentary, discussion, and insights on what drives fan behavior!

In this episode Daniel and Thomas discuss positive stress. What seems to be a contradiction is an important aspect of engaging with entertainment and our interests. From Internet drama to second-hand embarrassment, to edge of your seat excitement, eustress is something we all seek to some degree.
