We're back for Episode 50!

Break ups can be hard for everyone but eventually, you get over them. Right?

This week, we take a deep dive into the world of relationships, neuroscience and medicine as we try to find out if science can answer the question: "can heartbreak actually break your heart?"


We jump into:


Coming to America (4:03)

Lockdown love lives (10:17)

Heartbreak heart damage & Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (18:25)

Is love is a drug? (25:55)

Can seeing your ex cause actually hurt you? (41:09)

Is there a rejection gene? (46:23)
