About this listen
n this inaugural episode of The Can, Ava Cole and Julian Harper examine The Control Codes: 16 Hidden Patterns of Manipulative Relationships by London Miles.
This recent release dissects subtle tactics of control in intimate partnerships, drawing from psychology and real-world examples to highlight behaviors often overlooked. We discuss the book's structured breakdown of patterns—from gaslighting echoes to emotional withholding—and evaluate its clarity, evidence base, and practical applicability for readers navigating complex dynamics.
Strengths include its accessible language and actionable insights; areas for consideration involve the depth of supporting research and broader cultural contexts. Our verdict: A worthwhile read for those seeking awareness of relational power imbalances, though best paired with complementary perspectives.
Join us for thoughtful analysis—no hype, just reasoned exploration.
