  • HIV 101 with Benjamin Gerritz
    Rhys and Josh interview Benjamin Gerritz from Cascade AIDS Project about HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections. STIs carry with them tremendous stigma and societal baggage. Much of what people think they know is driven by fear and judgment, or at least ignorance. In this episode, we cover the basics and work to provide a basic overview of STIs for the listener who is new to the topic. Gerritz answers questions about HIV/AIDS and debunks a variety of myths about HIV/AIDs in an educational discussion. Our goal, as always, is to see the person behind the label.

  • Human Growth and Development with Katie Ledbury
    Rhys and Josh interview Katie Ledbury about Human Growth and Development, both the concept, and the class. Why study human growth at all? What is its relevance to the work of counselors, social workers and prescribers? What are the most helpful ways to understand the dynamic, life-long growth process of a person? We tackle all these questions and more. In particular, we critique the practice of studying the psycho-social stages of Erik Erikson. We note that Erikson understoond human growth through multiple lenses of privilege and note the limits of that perspective and further discuss whether or not and to what degree his theory may or may not still be relevant!
