This week, Josh and Dietrich attempt something quite different: a playlist about understanding and coping with mental health issues. It's a huge challenge for the pair, who approach it from different angles. Josh looks at work that has portrayed struggles with depression and anxiety, from the astonishing Melancholia to the grim, heartfelt, and moving HBO series The Leftovers. Dietrich discusses media that has helped him better understand the struggle faced by those coping with mental illness, including a webcomic that handles science fiction and trans rights equally deftly, and a video game that uses familiar mechanics to discuss the challenge of staying mentally healthy. Finally, they debate whether the Pixar film Inside Out belongs on this list. In addition, Josh raves about an astonishing urban fantasy novel, Dietrich looks at the newest title from the author of The Martian, and they discuss a movie Dietrich adores and Josh is dying to see.
