Mental Health Thread 4.11.18
Sometimes we need to talk about some things. This is a phenomenally caring and kind group, and we do a pretty good job of looking out for each other. Welcome to the weekly mental health thread for Avocados. Feel free to talk about anything you need to – what’s driving you crazy, what’s working in or out of therapy, how your health care plan sucks. This is a safe space to let loose on some mental health issues. We’re all here for support, but be careful about offering advice, unless it’s asked for. Sometimes we just need to get things … Continue reading Mental Health Thread 4.11.18
Pod People 4.9.18
Not a lot this week, here’s all I’ve got: We Hate Movies Episode 349: Shrek – God, I hate this movie so much. So of course I love hearing it be torn apart by the guys. Unladylike: How to Be a Sex Queen – This guest is so fantastic! She hosts the podcast The Spread and talks openly and often hilariously about sex and everything related to it. We need more podcasts like this! On an unrelated note, I really hate the theme for Unladylike. Luckily it’s easy to skip! Continue reading Pod People 4.9.18

Pod People 4.2.18 – Apology Addition
So I had a really great Pod People ready to go last week: by Wednesday I already had four podcasts on there and was sure I’d add more as the week went on, as I usually stop adding ones to feature on Monday morning. Then my work computer was completely wiped and I lost the file. So I have nothing to feature this week! Continue reading Pod People 4.2.18 – Apology Addition

RISK: Drugs – I love that this episode had a pretty wide variety of drug-related stories, including a funny one, one that was both funny and harrowing (if you know addiction or have experienced it) and one that was just plain harrowing and heartbreaking. I would have been annoyed if it was nothing but fun stories OR nothing but horror stories. Distraction Pieces with Scroobius Pip: Patrisse Cullors – Cullors has been all over my podcasts because of her book and it makes me so happy. This interview is just as good as the others she’s had recently, and is … Continue reading Pod People 3.26.18

Pod People 3.19.18
Caught: “I Just Want You to Come Home” – This new podcast is about children caught in the criminal “justice” system in America. Picture “The New Jim Crow” in podcast form, told in small stories, with the voices of the kids themselves at the front and center. It isn’t fun listening, but it’s important. The Dollop #319: The Missouri Mormon War – I just read about this in Under the Banner of Heaven! Here Be Monsters #94: The Fatigue of Violence – This episode is just an edited conversation between two private investigators about their jobs, and it’s fascinating and … Continue reading Pod People 3.19.18
