A Therapist Walks Into a Bar isn't quite back but I'm doing a little resurrection in order to share something very special that I think you'll like - Marsification: A tale of planetary grief.
Marsification was created and written by sound artist, musician, and psychotherapist Lily Sloane and writer, teacher, bodyworker and facilitator Zara Zimbardo. Lily and Zara live in the San Francisco Bay Area, on unceded Ohlone land.
All characters are voiced by Lily and Zara, and Chelsea Kigano, who also made some creative contributions to the story.

Definitions used throughout this project are from The Bureau of Linguistical Reality, “a dictionary for the present future.” The exception is "solastalgia," which was coined by Glen Albrecht. Words coined by Ranu Mukherjee, Alicia Escott, Heidi Quante, Anthony Discenza, Paul Hassig, Patrick Reinsborough and Zara Zimbardo.
“Whitey On Mars” was written as an homage to American jazz poet Gil Scott-Heron’s 1970 iconic spoken word song, “Whitey on the Moon”, a year after the Apollo moon landing.

When performing is a normal part of all our lives, on stage or off, what does it mean to be authentic? What is a “true self”? I’m hoping an opera singing drag performing therapist, some strangers in a bar, and a dead psychoanalyst can help me figure it out.
This episode features San Francisco drag performing artist, Dusty Porn (aka San Francisco psychotherapist Paul Ziller).
To watch Dusty's performance in the Miss California Gold Pageant this year, follow this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTzs5sbZ5nw&feature=youtu.be
