October 02 Keeping It Factual | Interview with SchizophrenicReads
This week on the podcast, Kody and Kit are joined by Nathan, also known as schizophrenicreads online! Nathan is a major bookworm—nonfiction specifically—and the passion is so fun to see! Ages ago, Nathan was big into schizophrenia advocacy. But today we find out what happens when someone steps away and does something else while still having to deal with schizophrenia. Nathan shows that we are more than our diagnosis, and inspires others to do what they love with these disorders.As always, enjoy the episode and let us know what you think!Follow Nathan!IG, TikTok: schizophrenicreadsOther links (including substack!): https://linktr.ee/nathanshuherkYouTube: @schizophrenicreadsOur Merch!!!!https://www.rayguncustom.com/collections/kody-co-llc/products/988-help-is-one-call-away-shirtFollow the podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify: we are Schiz and Giggles on both platformsYouTube is @schizandgiggles for the video version of the podcastWe are on Instagram and TikTok at the same handleEmail: [email protected] Kody!YouTube: @schizophrenichippieTikTok, Instagram, Facebook: schizophrenichippieFollow Kit!YouTube: @schizokitzoInstagram, TikTok, Facebook: schizokitzo#schizophrenia #schizoaffective #podcast #schizandgiggles #bookworm

August 07 Should They Rename Schizophrenia??
In 2002, Japan changed “schizophrenia” to “Integration disorder” and they claim it drastically helped reduce stigma…. but should this be done elsewhere? Maybe in the United States? This week on the podcast, Kody and Kit talk about just that: should “schizophrenia” be changed to something else? It’s quite the argument either way and Kody and Kit state their own opinions on the matter. Let us know if you agree—or disagree—in the comments!

June 19 What is Catatonia?
Catatonia is a complex syndrome of motor abnormality, usually landing someone in the state of being a statue. No moving, no talking, and no responding. But it’s more complicated than that.
