(Explicitly Sick) How to Thrive With Chronic Illness and Limited Energy Summit: Lisa Sniderman

*Please DO NOT listen if you have not watched through season 5 of The Magicians! We jump right into the biggest gag of the entire show in the first 5 minutes. GO WATCH the show 1-4 is on Netflix. I have watched the show all the way through 5 times.

The Magicians is sort of if Harry Potter went to graduate school and discovered acid. It is one of my favorite shows for how disability (disabled characters are largely played by actors who have the disability), addiction, depression, and life after sexual assault.

As a writer I revisit this show over and over to get character development and dialog correct. Shock of shocks I found Lisa LOVES the show as well.

Next in the series of chronic illness and disability in popular culture we are going to talk about Westworld. If you want to watch along that should come out in August. Comment below if you have a series you would like us to cover. Good or bad.
