What Makes Someone a Manipulator? A Debate You Weren't Expecting with Dr. Jeremy Sherman

When a researcher who's spent 30 years studying human behavior from the chemical origins of life to modern relationships sits down with two communication coaches, the conversation goes places nobody planned. Dr. Jeremy Sherman, author of What's Up With A**holes?, challenges Robin and Dennis on the words we use, the rules we trust, and whether anyone can truly claim to be an expert on manipulation. What starts as a friendly interview turns into a real-time sparring match — with pushback and playful tension. If you've ever wondered whether your definition of manipulation holds up under pressure, this one will make you think.   Youtube Whole channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjH_fBN6aQQ0uw5324tSrcg?view_as=subscriber Ironic Mind Taffy: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRC3h5r-yj3eDLp7FKSc8-2Og_XcrLMUG AI DT tells it like it is: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRC3h5r-yj3ctjAWRIuJYdMdZsDG8dzQZ MAGAnificent Mike: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRC3h5r-yj3fstMDBZ-qdlDEewQUQ-aay Words to try on Trumpies: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRC3h5r-yj3dYrDlrQLi02fHP-Zw1nzxT Teleodynamics YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0k-ZVua7_rjOJy6UozU2KA   Psychology Today Blogs Ambigamy: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/ambigamy Jerkology: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/jerkology   Social FB Personal: https://www.facebook.com/jeremysherm FB Psychoproctology: https://www.facebook.com/Psychoproct/ FB NWYAW: https://www.facebook.com/negotiatewyaw/ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyshermanphd/?hl=en Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tryingbeings https://www.tiktok.com/@maganificentmike Substack: https://substack.com/@unsuresherman Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/jeremysherman.bsky.social LinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremyshermanphd/ X: https://x.com/Jeremyshermn   Books: What's Up with A**holes?: https://a.co/d/0W5vCGY Neither Ghost Nor Machine: https://a.co/d/652ewa9
