Episodes
-
Why I can't let go of my love of the NFL and Football in general. Lots of fun football music, season preview, musings on growing up a Browns fan and how it shaped (and warped) my personality AND at the end I read a very moving poem. Wow, what a show.
-
Try not to drink on an empty stomach. Anyway - simulcast with You Tube channel. Revamping You Tube channel to make it less boring AND in case you ever wondered what it feels like to wean off a Benzo - I'll tell you because I'm doing it!

Keith Gottschalk talks about the aftermath of the Alternatives 2018 conference in Washington and explores the question: 'what is this thing called recovery?'
-
Keith alone today (Alyssa was camping - lucky her!) Alternatives 2018 conference - why is it important - the role current politics and society play in developing 'mental disorders.' A discussion on the mystery of arrested development in BPD and how and why it happens. This is a 'hot' podcast ep as I pretty much let loose with a lot of emotionally charged and pointy dialog.
-
Alyssa Cypher and Keith Gottschalk talk about the Alternatives 2018 conference to be held the week of July 29 in Washington DC and it's importance to not only the Mad Pride Movement but to all manner of mental peer counseling and anti-stigma movements around the country.
-
Trigger Warning for childhood abuse, abusive imagery. Keith and Alyssa, well, we really haven't given our listeners a proper introduction so we remedy that in this podcast.
-
Alyssa and Keith discuss the armchair psychoanalyzing of the Capital Gazette shooter and look at related issues of Internet and in person threats and stalking.
-
Alyssa Cypher and Keith Gottschalk discuss the national response to the high profile suicides of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain and look at the issues of mental health surrounding the local police shooting of 17-year-old Antwon Rose Jr.
-
In which Keith has a bad day where he overmedicates but feels the need to continue a podcast where he talks about New York, suicide and punishing children. No, this not about Sid Vicious but I went by the Chelsea Hotel.
Anyway, take it for what it's worth - it's freeform, no break stream of conscientiousness. Alyssa will be back for next week to keep me on the straight and narrow. Well, as much as possible. -
By myself this week at the bar for a combined podcast/You Tube talkin about my New York City 'experiment'
-
Keith Gottschalk and co-host Alyssa Cypher discuss what the new Power Threat Meaning Framework could mean to Psychiatry and the way it looks at people - a move away from drug based therapy toward a more holistic approach - a revolution in how we look at Mad people.
-
Alyssa Cypher and I discuss her Pittsburgh based group 'Inside our Minds:' how and why it was formed and what it has accomplished. We also discuss the mental health model and the Mad Pride' movement as well as the stigma kids face in school for being 'different' in the rush for safety after shooting incidents such as the one in Santa Fe, Texas
-
In this episode, I get very personal and somewhat emotional with you as I discuss the SWAT raid on my house which gave me my PTSD (although I already had it from childhood, but that's another story). The whole episode started out as a misunderstanding at work. You may not believe it, but it happened.
-
It's Mental Health Awareness Month and I talk about a 'Men's Health' magazine story about how the strong and silent shtick is killing men. Also, you may be able to go to your shrink and ask for some Molly (ecstasy) for PTSD. That and the usual musical interludes.
-
I'll be taking about the latest news - lamotrigine is no better than a placebo (sucks to be me - I'm on it) and a chatbot with AI that might someday take the place of your therapist - and more, with the usual musical interludes.
-
Interview with Emily Sheerer Cutler of MadinAmerica.com including two personal segments.
-
OK, still a little rough on the production side - been a while since mixing from a board. Interview with Alex Solomonwho has BPD and wrote a piece on her condition at Medium.com. Show elements: This Week in Mental Health and Personal File
-
A very rough and somewhat unpolished introduction to my podcast.
