He keeps foreshadowing like he's going to have some big epiphany about how he actually IS a psychopath, but... I don't think I believe him. This man does not sound trustworthy, tbh.

This guy sounds exhausting. I get that lack of introspection is probably a big feature of his various mental health conditions, but all I can keep thinking is, "his poor wife."

That was a long hour of very technical speak. I also think--at least in this stage of the book--he doesn't have a very good sense of himself as compared to the DSM-4 (at the time).

My dude. You are glib and charming and well liked and also love to set fires?????

There's a lot I need to keep in mind while I listen to this book. It was published in 2014. The author was a leading neuroscientist at the time, and seemingly has some sort of personality disorder that *could* be labeled as psychopathy. But, so far, he sounds... well. Self-Aggrandizing?

The narrator kinda sounds like Data from TNG, which makes this topic a VERY fun listen!
