David King

Sarah Qari, a seasoned investigative journalist, and David King, author of "Six Days in August: The Story of Stockholm Syndrome," dive into the dramatic 1973 Stockholm bank hostage crisis. They discuss how the unexpected bonds between captives and their captor gave birth to the term 'Stockholm Syndrome.' The conversation challenges the misconceptions surrounding this psychological phenomenon and explores the implications of trauma in hostage situations. They also touch on survivor stories and the importance of empathy in understanding complex emotional responses.
