After reading Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses, I was delighted to have the opportunity to sit down and discuss the book with author Sarah Fay. In this exploration of the ways we pathologize our human experiences, Sarah opens the door to a new conversation about mental health.

In this episode, Sarah shares: 

• How and why do we categorize ourselves to make everyday life easier
• How any diagnosis can turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy
• Her recommendations for when you are handed a diagnoses
• Why recognizing signals in your body can help you learn how to process feelings and emotions

Sarah Fay (Ph.D., Iowa MFA) is an award-winning author and mental health advocate working to improve how we think and talk about mental health by moving the conversation away from simplistic diagnoses and toward a deeper understanding of our mental and emotional lives. Her personal experience of being diagnosed with six different mental health disorders and finding no relief led her to investigate the diagnoses we receive and to write her journalistic memoir, Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses which Apple Books chose as one of the Best Books in March. Sarah has shared her story on NPR, Salon, and more. 

I hope you find this conversation as fascinating as I did.  Be sure to share the episode with your friends and family.

In his classic hit, American Pie, released in 1971, songwriter Don McLean intones:  “I went down to the sacred store where I’d heard the music years before but the man there said the music wouldn’t play.”

Every time host and award-winning journalist Dean Rotbart hears that verse, he’s reminded of rock ‘n roll concert promoter Barry Fey, who over the course of his three-decade career organized mega-shows featuring Jimi Hendrix, The Who, U2, Rolling Stones, Three Dog Night, and many other music legends.

Fey died eight years ago, age 74, but the story of his unconventional path to success lives on. This week, Dean plays highlights of his two interviews with Fey and demonstrates why the rocker was an entrepreneurial and marketing genius.

Jahred is once again joined by his brother and sister Vdog and Ez_elle. The family discusses Elle’s Insane Clown Posse concert, annoying family questions, Cards Against Humanity as a way to figure out people, listener emails including soft bodies knocking people out, ‘Fay Grim’ in the ‘Jeff Goldblum Movie Review’, a coffee tax in ‘Tanzania News’, the problem with dressing for the job you want and Soap shoes.

"It's getting rather exciting, isn't it?"

Well mileage may vary and opinions certainly differ a wee bit between your intrepid hosts on this one.

For it is The Stones of Blood, a tale of vampiric slabs, a reclusive mistress-villain with a morbid fear of lemon sherbets and the latest mismatched cop duo - Android and Wirrn.

The Doctor wears a barrister's wig, Romana sports a chav cap and Vivien Fay shows off her deep silver tan. Professor Rumford forgets her words (and her bra) but remembers her truncheon, and K9 spills his guts while being goosed by a jack plug.

The local druids summon a wrinkly comedy star, a camping couple suffer post-coital depression, and two clouds of bling argue the toss while the Doctor doesn't appear to give one.

So did the story stir the blood of Jim and Martin or leave them stony faced?

Listen to find out.

NB: You'll notice that Jim gets a story title wrong - twice. Rest assured that he has been taken away and destroyed in a controlled explosion.
