January is a time when many people look to make radical changes in their lives. But be careful what you wish for, especially when you're talking about forensic psychology.

Episode 5 focuses on a rare but fascinating disorder which adds a whole new twist to the idea of personal reinvention.

002 Fool Me Once Nov 14, 2016

Show notes

What do you do when your worldview asks you to look for the best in someone but what you are faced with is the very worst? The documentary "A Wise Fool" has one take on this question, but this week's Quid Pro Quo episode discusses why in this particular case a background in Forensic Psychology might lead you to a different conclusion.
