Season 1

  • S01E01 How Narcissists Took Over the World

    • VICE TV (US)

    Narcissists are suddenly everywhere. Thanks in part to Donald Trump’s media diagnosis, Narcissistic Personality Disorder has overtaken ‘psychopath’ and ‘bipolar’ to emerge as our number one label for others’ psychological failings.

  • S01E02 Why the World Is Still Fascinated with Astrology

    • VICE TV (US)

    No matter how developed a society becomes, no matter how much they give rights to gays or develop nuclear fusion technologies, the idea of a future written in stars has been surprisingly potent to all sorts of people who are otherwise brain surgeons or lawyers or run F500 companies. Gavin will put himself in the hands of lunar fixers, Indian Vedic astrologers, birth chart readers and whoever it is who writes the horoscopes in the Metro, to find out his personal destiny as a Scorpio and whether or not there is something we can all learn from astrology.

  • S01E03 The New Wave of American Masculinity

    • VICE TV (US)

    VICE UK Correspondent Gavin Haynes has come to the United States to determine what masculinity means to the American man. Though stereotypically masculine acts like fraternity hazings, monster truck rallies and food competitions still persist, there is a growing movement of men who are coming together to challenge these conventions and redefine machoism. Gavin meets with a host of these men, including a competitive eater, a troupe of stay-at-home-dads and a radical men's group hosting a slumber party in the woods, to survey the evolution of American masculinity for himself.

  • S01E04 Inside the Strange, Psychic World of Indigo Children

    • VICE TV (US)

    Gavin Haynes has come from England to America to investigate the secret world of Indigo Children, a select group of people who believe they were born with "indigo" auras and possess special and supernatural traits and abilities. Though many of these children have been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD by health care professionals, Indigo parents maintain that their children do not have these conditions, but are instead running on a different astral plane unbeknownst to regular people. Critics maintain that these children are not receiving proper mental health care.
