/Interview: BLM Pasco
Content/Trigger Warning: Protest agitation, gaslighting, false narratives, police harassment, racism, systemic injustice Interview with a local leader of Black Lives Matter, seeking to flush out some truth in our 'alternative facts', 'post-truth' environment that we all find ourselves in.

Please visit BlackLivesMatter.com (//BlackLivesMatter.com) to gather information for yourself about the national organization and Black Lives Matter Pasco (https://www.facebook.com/pascoblm) to find information about the small county one. A podcast by and for nerds with mental health experience and battles. Several of us have counseling degrees and experience and all of us have anxiety (diagnosed or otherwise).

Video Games, Violence, Family, and Nonsense
Content/Trigger Warning: joking about video game violence, mentions of recent shootings, LGBTQ+ sensitive topics, family-caused trauma, brief mentions of gender roles and stereotypes. Our intention was to talk about the supposed/potential correlation between video game/movie/tv violence and the 'increased' violence among young people. However, it turned out to be a limited topic and we had to expand to false correlations that are put on young people in general.
