Two Tired Therapists

Welcome back to another eye-opening episode of Two Tired Therapists! This week, Kyle and Jackie pull back the curtain on the mysterious and manipulative world of cults, breaking down how they operate, why people join, and what psychological tactics cult leaders use to control their followers. But first, Kyle needs to get something off his chest—why do people insist on putting money down on the counter instead of handing it directly to the cashier? Meanwhile, Jackie’s over the ridiculous casting on reality dating shows—are they even trying to find real connections anymore?

In this episode, your two favorite therapists explore the psychology behind cults, from the recruitment process to the mind control techniques that keep members trapped. They share real-world examples of famous cults and offer insights into how to recognize when something is veering into cult territory. To close things out, Jackie challenges Kyle to a quiz on the strangest cult rituals—will he know which ones are real?

Welcome back to another exceptionally professional episode of Two Tired Therapists! This week, Kyle and Jackie take a deep dive into the world of hoarding with a focus on the show Hoarders and the complexities of Hoarding Disorder. Before your favorite therapists get into it, Kyle, ever the purveyor of unique insights, is tired of people using their families, and specifically kids as an excuse (childless people unite!). Meanwhile, Jackie is tired of everything becoming a meme.

In this episode, your Two Tired Therapists tackle the reality TV phenomenon of Hoarders, dissecting what it reveals about hoarding behavior and the underlying psychological issues at play. They explore the symptoms and treatment options for Hoarding Disorder, drawing on both personal observations and professional insights. At the end, Jackie quizzes Kyle on what color his personality is.

Welcome back to another lovely episode of TTT! This week, Jackie and Kyle discuss the horrors of The Program: Cons, Cults and Kidnapping, a documentary on Netflix directed by Katherine Kubler about the trauma of being sent to a behavior modification school which really didn’t do shit to help them. But before they dive in, Kyle chats about how he’s tired of sex reveals, specifically the ones where people are disappointed (some to an alarming degree) and Jackie is tired of Producer Justin calling her a content creator when she ain’t making any money (someone please make us go viral!!). The two discuss The Program, their thoughts and how damaging these types of facilities are. Finally, Jackie quizzes Kyle on Harry Potter trivia.

Hello, Two Tired fans, friends, family, and folks at home! Your absolute favorite therapists are back from break, even though it was much longer than anticipated (Thanks Producer Justin for not editing episodes quickly enough). Jackie and Kyle are rested, hydrated, vibing, and thriving and here to feed the children with Psychology Hacks.

But before you find out whether you’re a raging misogynist or incel, Kyle chats about how he’s tired of the Hawk Tuah viral moment and Jackie is tired of people randomly shooting off fireworks for no reason (some of us have anxious dogs who need drugs). Kyle dishes the utterly wonderful wisdom that he found on internet and both Jackie and Kyle try not die while talking about how some of these really have nothing to do with Psychology or mental health or really anything that any person should do or say to another. Finally, they play the brand new game of Gay, Straight, or Hillbilly.

Hi Gay, Happy Pride Month!! Welcome back to another episode of Two Tired Therapists, where you will hear things that you cannot un-hear or picture as we discuss some truly rotted Reddit tales. But before you grab the bleach (for your eyes and ears), Jackie is tired of the YouTube algorithm that has somehow blessed her with Gordon Ramsey and Hell’s Kitchen, while Kyle is tired of the straights and their PDA (just in time for Pride Month!). Back by popular demand, Jackie culls some rotted, cursed tales from the depths of Reddit’s underbelly to bring you some of the most truly heinous stories to date. Jackie and Kyle discuss what they would do, or wouldn’t do, and if they would lose their shit if these scenarios happened to them. They end this episode with a totally apropos and not at all planned game of Gay or Straight.

Get ready for the ascension, because we're diving into some uncharted territory with the wildest documentary that your favorite Two Tired Therapists have seen to date. But before the colloidal silver hits, Jackie is pulling her hair out over autocorrect making a mess of her texts, while Kyle’s fed up with the body positivity movement, especially when tiny, skinny people are at the center of it.

This week, we're unraveling the eerie story of "Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God." Jackie gives a detailed account of this bizarre cult and its enigmatic leader, while Kyle breaks down the psychological aspects that made people fall for it. Later on, they play Fetch or Flop: Iconic Daytime Talk Show Edition.

Hello TTT super fans! Grab your glitter and garlic because today we're diving deep into the melodramatic monsoon that is The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1. Before we sink our teeth into the sparkling skin of the Cullen clan, Kyle and Jackie share how they are not only tired of the new Taylor Swift album, but the diehard fans as well… sorry to the Swifties out there! 


As we unravel the enigma of that mother effing animatronic baby, don’t be shocked if Jackie and Kyle continue to debate why this was chosen and who was responsible for that choice (you’ve been warned!). Stick around as they wrap up with a Buzzfeed quiz about how much they know about Breaking Dawn (they did their best). Tune in, it's going to be an iconic episode you won't want to miss!

The struggle bus has stopped and we want you to get on. Jackie and Kyle dive headfirst into the messy, awkward, and often ridiculous world of anxiety. It's like a self-help book but with more jokes and fewer pages. But first, Kyle is wrestling with the wild beast that is the Instagram algorithm. He's pretty sure it's out to get him, showing him videos of their daily water with 9 million flavoring packets. Jackie is on a mission to finally put an end to the Bermuda Triangle of personal items lost between her car seat and console. Together, they're tired of the nonsense but are here to make sense of it all for you.

From breathing exercises that sound like a whale call to debating the effectiveness of screaming into the void (or just a pillow, for apartment living), this is your go-to guide for navigating the highs and lows of anxiety, with detours through the ridiculous. Whether you're looking for advice, treatments, or just want to feel like you're not alone in the weirdness of it all, Jackie and Kyle have got your back. Tune in to laugh, learn, and maybe even find out how to stop your phone from listening to your conversations. Or at least, how to give it something interesting to listen to.

Well, well, well, you’re back with us, you flop! JK, we’re here on this glorious Tuesday to talk about the wonderful world of Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity (NGRI) and in true Jackie fashion, she tells too many stories of her time in the state hospital and prison system. Before they get into the drama mama, Kyle is tired of pornstaches (you don’t look good no matter what affirmations you tell yourself in the mirror) and Jackie is tired of small talk, mostly because she’s not good at it (is this surprising to anyone?). Jackie pops the corn and feeds the children and also brings them to school about everything NGRI. Don’t believe what you read, it’s A LOT harder to plead it than you think. Enjoy both Jackie and Kyle feeling triggered throughout the episode about everything they learned, or maybe didn’t learn in school. Before they wrap things up, they play another wonderful Spring/Easter Edition of Gay or Straight.
