"If You Don't Disown Me, You're The Best!" w/ Dylan Adler

This week I spiraled out with the ridiculously funny, insightful AND delightful comedian Dylan Adler! We talked being baby queers, the horrors of your Mom witnessing your super vulnerable ( and sometimes Freudian) jokes, and turning trauma and shame into comedy.
Plus, Dylan shares a story of having a (in my biased and outraged opinion, as a licensed psychotherapist) HORRIFYINGLY BAD therapist who sent him down a shame spiral which is pretty much the exact opposite of what that therapist needed to be doing, okay!? CW: this episode includes discussion of having experienced sexual assault, and the aftermath & recovery, but no specifics or details of the SA are shared. However, MUCH is shared about processing that harm via Dylan's incredible writing, singing and performing, which you should check out for yourself:
Dylan's performing on 11/7 at Littlefield in Brooklyn, and the audio album of his show with co-creator, comic Kelly Bachmann, "Rape Victims are Horny, Too" is out now! Like everywhere! GET AFTER IT!
