Episode Description - Host: Mo Moshaty, Guest: Mary Beth McAndrews
Struggling with unresolved trauma and deep-seated rage, a woman becomes the subject of experimental therapy that taps into her repressed emotions. As she undergoes this treatment, her anger manifests in a terrifying way, unleashing physical embodiments of her inner turmoil. Isolated from her family, she spirals deeper into madness, ultimately losing control over the destructive force she unknowingly wields. Her journey is one of profound suffering, a descent into chaos driven by unprocessed pain and emotional instability. This is the story of Nola Carweth and the call for autonomy, agency and generational trauma is coming from inside the house.
Film discussed: The Brood by David Cronenberg
