Episode 27

Welcome to the Healing Pod!

And I’m sorry this is a week late! Jess was unable to join, then the computer tried to eat the recording (hence it’s a different format) and then a migraine hit)

Given all of that, this is minimally edited today, so sorry for that! The rambles and talking over each other will remain, sorry not sorry!

In this episode, Kasie had the wonderful idea of going over my reaction to some examples of psychologists/psychiatrists in media. So once we actually got the thing recording, we gave it a shot.

And it was actually a lot of fun, and we went a lot more in depth of how we thought about these few examples than I think either of us were expecting.

Media mentioned include:

Sopranos and Follie a Deux (neither of which has been watched by us, so maybe next time)

Harley Quinn, Batman: Caped Crusader, Batman: The Animated Series (and the podcast The Arkham Sessions)

Fraiser (both Fraiser Crane and Niles Crane)

MASH (and Dr. Sidney Freedman, who was actually a significant influence in my wanting to do this work, I make no apology for being emotional talking about him)

Good Will Hunting (RIP Robin Williams, you truly were amazing)

What About Bob (A fine Bill Murray film)

Honorable mentions: The Patient (not a fun series, but a very good series about why in home therapy is not always a good idea), Nurse Ratchet (one flew over the Cuckoo’s nest, nurse on a power run), Hannibal from the TV show (with Mads and his egg knife skills that almost make up for his massive manipulation), Dr. Marvin Monroe (family bliss or double your money back!), and Big Little Lies (the therapist dealing with the domestic violence…not that Little Bi Peep one, who is just silly)

Calvin was our old white and orange cat, he was amazing and the loudest purer I have ever met.

As always, thank you to the wonderful Miki Anderson for our intro and outtro music. She can be found under Pax Minerva on Apple Music and is all around a wonderful human being.
