Join Darren and Simon for a thought-provoking conversation that dives into the surprising ways game theory shapes our everyday lives. Through the lens of the classic Prisoner’s Dilemma, they explore the delicate dance between cooperation and competition, revealing why kindness is a powerful opening move—but only when balanced with healthy boundaries. Learn why forgiveness is more than just a virtue and discover how our mindsets—scarcity or abundance—can influence everything from decision-making to our most meaningful relationships. This episode is packed with insights on how these principles can help us become more compassionate, resilient, and ultimately, better versions of ourselves.
