In this return from hiatus, I discuss a sociological concept known as the Dramaturgical Model (developed by Erving Goffman). Simply put, the theory paints life and the social interactions within it as that of a theatrical production. I first learned about this theory in my Sociology textbook for college and found it not only fascinating but strangely aligned with how I have viewed my own life for a very long time. Feel free to take a listen to find out more. Thank you!
