Twice a month "The Broken Brain" joins "Let's Chat with Chris Revill" to create the Patreon-only show: "The Broken Chat!"
This is a free sample of what you may be missing in the patron feed. In addition to The Broken Chat show there is also extended interviews, follow-ups with guests, and other special projects. Check out www.patreon.com/brokenbrain to learn more and to subscribe.
In
this Fifth episode of The Broken Chat, Chris and Dwight discuss
"Noel," the 10th episode of season 2 of the television show "The
West Wing." A re-watch of this episode actually triggered a series
of events that led Chris to learn about his own PTSD and seek the
treatment that he spoke about on the main feed of this
Podcast.
Bradley Whitford's character, Josh, is dealing with the
psychological repercussions of trauma following a shooting that
left him in critical condition. Set in the weeks following this
incident, he is being assessed by a trauma psychologist (Played by
Adam Arkin) to see how these incidents may have affected him. We
discuss the show, how these events relate to Chris' own experience
with Complex PTSD, and other related issues. All with our
trademarked tangental ramblings, because ADHD is truly with us
always.
