Happy Halloween, readers!! We’re joined in the studio today by Dan Green, previously scared by everything and now master of all things scary. Dan is a horror screenwriter and film teacher, so it’s safe to say he’s familiar with the genre. We dive into some horror subgenres and talk about some goals horror films may be trying to accomplish as you watch them, along with many other things.

Hello beloved readers! We’re back to talk about porn yet again - but this time we’re here to discuss how porn might be helpful or even therapeutic under the right conditions. I know, we’ve spent five parts bashing on porn and now we’re changing our tune? We’re trying to keep you on your toes here at Deep Lore of the Mind.

You guys, we’re totally getting meta this week. We’ve got our classic ol’ Doc, and he’s brought with him another therapist, Dr. Jamison Law! With their expertise combined, we begin to talk about how practicing therapy with a real human client can be so incredibly different from what you’re taught when you’re training to be a therapist. And though Diamalynne has never been a therapist, she has been a client, so she weighs in too.

We hope this episode is an emotional laxative to all those out there that are clogged and constipated. There are many people out there whose heart pipes are clogged, and this episode could be a plunger. I really decided to lean into the toilet jokes in these show notes, huh?

Hello again! I’m so sorry to everyone for the lack of content the last two weeks. I was going out of town and the time got away from me, but we’re back baby! This week we look at what the current common conception is around Stoicism, and Doc really breaks down how that has strayed so very far from the original intent of the practice.

Vex is back!!! We finish up our series on kink this week as we delve deeper into the ideas of myth enacted through the body, the want of ritual and meaning, and also we just have a plain old good time. And to clarify, we may be heathens, but that’s not related to talking about kink at all.

What many of us need is to have our pain gently held, and we hope this episode feels like a warm embrace.

We get pretty choked up in this one, folks. We hope it’s meaningful for you to hear about the mud of our grief, and meaningful to know that you’re not the only one that feels stuck in their mud sometimes.

Doc and Diamalynne are starting a series here that will dive into some personal details, some of which may be uncomfortable to hear, but we hope that hearing our experiences will help you feel seen in yours. We’re beginning our dive into the concepts of trauma and grief; this week we’re defining the two terms, differentiating them, and giving examples of the two.
