GAYDHD with EMMA WILLMANN

06. Yawning, Quantum Physics & Curing Anger With Pettiness with Elle Orlando


Listen Later

omedian, actress, and podcaster Elle Orlando joins Emma for an episode that goes everywhere. They start with the anxiety symptom no one talks about — excessive yawning — and somehow end up explaining the double-slit experiment. Elle breaks down the four-day healing retreat led by her dad's girlfriend (a self-taught spiritual healer who studied with Tibetan monks), the finger muscle-testing technique that supposedly makes your body answer questions honestly, and her theory that every possible version of your life is happening in a parallel dimension right now.

They also get into aging parents who quietly start depending on their kids, the ick of dating a guy with major Long Island "hey girl" energy, and how Elle cured her anger problem by replacing it with world-class pettiness. Plus: ADHD and Vyvanse shame, growing up dyslexic and getting shuffled into special ed, and an Am I the Asshole deep dive about a mom who hid her daughter's childhood ADHD diagnosis for over a decade.
