1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 This week we look at a few things going on, from Ben's recent jaunt to Puerto Rico to a new Conjuring movie to beards vs. dogs to chocolate milk and brown cows. Then we dig into our main topic, the so-called science behind the online matchmaking giant eHarmony. Some years ago Ben went through a bit of trouble to learn what he could about the science-backed effectiveness touted by the company. And from the looks of things, not much has changed since his initial queries, but we can examine the case as a good example of what to look for as red flags when discerning whether a business is seriously scientific or just sciencey enough to pass as such to a few industry journalists and marketing teams.
