This week, we recap, review, and analyze Mobile Suit Gundam episode 33 (32 in the US), "Farewell in Side 6" ("コンスコン強襲"), discuss our first impressions, and provide commentary and research on Attachment Theory and Amuro's relationships with his parents, blast exposure, the polytrauma system, diagnostic criteria for PTSD, teen brain development, and what tinnitus has to do with depression.

We are joined by a special guest - Shar! Shar is a Clinical Neuropsychologist and our Clinical Psychology Consultant. You can find her on YouTube as Dr. Sharmander, on Instagram @dr_sharmander, and on Twitter @The_Sharmander.
