Hilah and Jessie acknowledge that they make a lot of stupid, false statements - but for two shrinks whose office is the backseat of a car- what do you expect?
Jessie has a crazy ketamine experience and traveled to the deepest level of her subconscious- which happens to be subterranean alien catacombs formed out of black rock, where the bodies of her trauma are literally buried. Check please!
They help a listener who may, or may not, totally dislike her 22 year old stepson who stops by the house for munchies. Is he the problem? Or is the problem actually the fact that she's labeled him as a "CIS white male" ? they discuss "normal" child behavior vs. serious red flags.

Hilah's dreams are fueling her writing, and ketamine treatments are fueling Jessie's anxiety and causing rageful PTSD episodes. If you've ever wondered about male mastrubation and blow jobs, this is the episode for you, so put your bib on! Hilah & Jessie help a listener who slept with a fellow member of her Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) group, which leads to a discussion about Borderline Personality Disorder, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, sex addiction, sexual anorexia, how to be alone, reframing role of love, and how groups founded by AA don't address patterns driven by mental illness and trauma. Maybe the key to everything is to just love yourself or just get a fucking hobby.

Hilah's still drunk from the night before, but manages to trudge through this recording by eating fifteen different meals. Jessie's ketamine treatments are making her smarter and less relatable. In spite of these differences, they both agree - the dark void that is death totally chills them the fuck out- and people who have Near Death Experiences agree that it is superior to the fluorescent, relentless insanity that is life!
They counsel a listener who is dealing with radio silence from a new friend who just had a baby, and is newly sober. They discuss the trauma of motherhood, neurological deficits caused by Alcohol Abuse Disorder, post-partum, and how to support friends in the wake of radical life changes.
PLUS a bizarre mental illness NO ONE is talking about: Dorito Paste... IS IT DEMONIC?
P.S. lots of vomit talk

Hilah tells about her experience paying a psychic therapist to reveal a bunch of stuff she already knows about herself and how it ended up super depressing and sent her back to her old counselor. They talk about the dangers of overdoing it on talk therapy without also figuring out ways to cope and deal and become more resilient. Hilah is still considering getting another Akashic reading from the first person she talked with (ep 31) and Jessie's had enough of the nonsense but still believes in "regular psychics". Hilah recalls taking a personality and IQ test from the Church of Scientology. Jessie admits to once spending $600 on a phone psychic. No helpful advice is given in this episode.
