Mary & Wyatt do some breathing exercises, get grounded, and chat about anxiety. They talk about how humans evolved to be susceptible to stress and anxiety, how marginalized communities experience anxiety differently, and what we can do to treat our symptoms. Wyatt tells a cautionary tale about benzodiazepines and talks about the magical wonders of cognitive behavioral therapy. Also on the agenda: we answer Yahoo! Answers, Mary has a Christmas album coming out, our dog got injured again, and poems by Rae Armantrout and Nina Powles.
