In this episode, I talk about the cult classic show, Arrested Development. Pretty much every aspect of the show is based on Freudian slips and repression. A perfect match for this podcast!

This week I talk about the TikTok and general internet trend of the "pick me girl," related to "not like other girls" or the "cool girl." But don't worry, this episode is all about internalized misogyny, going through puberty on the internet, and having empathy for those working through their identities. All in all, a great listen!

This week I discuss the Netflix series "Big Mouth," an endearing look at the horrors of puberty. I love how this show uses abstract representations of psychological concepts, so this is a perfect fit!
