2 min - #91: The Psychology of Touching Grass
Ever heard someone declare "touch grass" during an internet fight? Well, there might be a kernel of truth to that insult. In this episode, I break down three research articles that seek to find out if touching grass is helpful for our mental health.

42 min - Mini 21: Sunk Cost Fallacy
This week's mini-sode is about the sunk cost fallacy. This cognitive bias can make it hard to leave or give up on a bad situation because we get stuck on all the past costs. I cover some related biases and tips on how to get around this fallacy.

22 min - #89: Stalking in Baby Reindeer
CW: stalking, sexual assault, transphobia, homophobia
Baby Reindeer is a show based on the real-life experiences of Richard Gadd. The show portrays a young man's struggle with his identity and relationships whilst being stalked by an older woman. In this episode, I talk about the characteristics of women who stalk, why men tend to underreport being stalked, as well as some of the other major themes in the show.

1 hr 4 min - #89: Suicidal Ideation in Vanderpump Rules
CW: suicide, suicidal ideation
As Season 11 of VPR wraps up, I had to discuss the very odd way in which the show handled a cast member endorsing suicidal ideation during the season. Bravo has never been that good at handling topics related to mental health, so I guess I have to come in and do some clean up 😅

48 min - #88: Factitious Disorder in The Act
CW: discussions of sexual assault, child abuse, fantasies of child exploitation, and murder
I'm back with a discussion of the story of Gypsy Rose Blanchard. In this episode I explore the differences between the fictional show and the real story, as well as discuss the disorder at the heart of this tragic tale: Munchausen's by Proxy or as the DSM calls it, Facticious Disorder Imposed on Another.

55 min - #87: Gender Roles in Barbarian
CW: discussions of sexual assault
A fun surprise: a horror film episode in January! I had to talk about Barbarian, one of the most interesting horror movies I have seen in a while. In this episode, I talk about some research regarding gender differences around perceptions of safety, like how Tess and Keith approach the situation in the film differently.

38 min - #86: Jordan Peterson Made a Music Video (and I have to talk about it!)
CW: discussions of sexual assault, pedophilia
It's time to once again talk about my nemesis: Jordan B. Peterson. He released a music video called "The Postmodernist Drinking Song" and it's one of the most incomprehensible pieces of content I've ever consumed. I had to talk about it with someone!
