In the season finale of The Science of Dialogue, host Rod J. Naquin tackles a fundamental question: Is there truly a science of dialogue, and if so, what does it entail? To unravel this, Rod examines three influential frameworks - Bakhtin's dialogism, Austin's speech act theory, and the interactive alignment model.

As the season comes to a close, Rod aims to provide invaluable insights into the prospects for a comprehensive "science of dialogue."
