48 min - Episode 45: We Need to Talk about Machine Gun Kelly
Content warning: abusive behavior, suicidal ideation, suicide, child abuse
It's time to talk about a controversial figure in the music scene: Machine Gun Kelly. Can we hold empathy and criticism for a public figure at the same time? I think so and hope this episode demonstrates that.

1 hr 3 min - Episode 44: Dreamland by Glass Animals
Content warning: domestic violence, school-based violence
This week I tackle the 2020 album, Dreamland, by indie electro-pop band Glass Animals. You've probably heard their song, Heat Waves, one thousand times on the radio. But this episode takes a look at 4 different tracks from the album and what they have to tell us, mostly about relationships.

47 min - Episode 43: The Teaching Exodus (ft. Jane Padilla)
Content warning: suicidal ideation, school-based violence, gun violence
This week I am joined by Jane Padilla, a high school English teacher, for a discussion on the massive exodus of teachers from the education system. We discuss components of burnout, the unique duties of teachers that no one ever hears about, and some practical tips to manage burnout while we wait for systemic change.
Donor's Choose, as mentioned in the episode.

2 hr 6 min - Mini 9: Mean World Syndrome
This minisode is about the cognitive bias called mean world syndrome. This is related to violence as depicted in media and how violent we perceive society to be. I think this bias is particularly salient to be aware of these days, as rhetoric about spiraling crime rates abounds.

32 min - Episode 42: The Inside Outtakes by Bo Burnham
If you like the Netflix special Inside and want more of that delicious content, then this is the episode for you! Bo Burnham recently posted a follow-up on his YouTube channel full of content that didn't make it into the original special. There's more to talk about, so I had to do another episode.
This episode is the follow-up to episode 4, Inside by Bo Burnham.

53 min - Episode 41: Shutter Island
CONTENT WARNING: child abuse, violence, suicidality
The show is back from hiatus! We are jumping right in with the classic 2010 film, Shutter Island. This film is a perfect fit for this podcast, as it is all about representations of psychology! Check out the episode to learn more about applying Fairbarn's moral defense to the main character (this is for my psychoanalytic listeners lol).
