Professor Bruce Hood is interviewed by BBC Radio 5 live and LBC, following the release of the 2025 World Happiness Report

During these interviews, Bruce talks about the affect the media could have on our happiness, and how we as humans pay more attention to negative news than happier news. 

In his interview with LBC, Bruce discusses why the UK is moving down the charts on the happiness report and suggests this is due to an increase in individuals sense of inequality and lack of control over their life.
