  • Episode 62: Let’s fold in the cheese as we confabulate on ND coded characters in Schitt’s Creek (with Marie Camin)
    TRANSCRIPT HERE    This is no time for pettifogging! I am bombilating with anticipation to bring you the most impulsive, capricious and melodramatic episode yet! The scintillating winsome clinical psychologist Marie Camin joins Steph as they discuss with great vigour the beloved Schitts Creek. Marie shares her thoughts on who in the cast she would suggest is Neurodivergent, who she relates with the most, and how she approaches neurodiversity with her client base. Steph and Marie discuss the relationships on the show, how hard it is to appropriately diagnose autistic white cis professional males, and what exactly might be going on with Moira Rose (other than accusing David of being a disgruntled pelican).   CONTENT WARNING: some discussion of ableism/ misinformation about autism & adhd   FOLLOW MARIE ON ALL THE THINGS: MarieCamin.com to access Marie’s resources, assessment & supervision services, training, and stickers!

  • Episode 59: Lets watch Stutz and talk about the Jonah Hill texts
    TRANSCRIPT HERE   We’re back to our regular programming with a fun debate between a future psychiatrist and a psychologist, as Michael Watson joins Steph to talk Stutz, the Netflix documentary “about” Dr Phil Stutz created by Jonah Hill. Steph & Michael discuss how the unique revolutionary techniques Stutz employs aren’t quite so unique or revolutionary, and what Jonah was trying and succeeding to portray from this film. BUTTT OF COURSE within the context of the wild and gross texts that Jonah’s ex Sarah Brady shared from the actor in July this year. What do the texts say about how effective the therapy portrayed in Stutz actually is? And what actually IS a boundary?    Special thanks to Laura Packer for sound editing <3   CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of emotional abuse, coercive control, body shaming, death of a sibling (very brief) Follow Psychocinematic on Instagram,  Twitter and Tiktok! or join our Facebook Group!

  • Episode 58 Tribute Re-release: Rubber Johnny, a wildly problematic viral short film (with Nic Fornasier)
    TRANSCRIPT HERE Our 2nd tribute episode to our beloved Nic Fornasier is here, with a special release from the Patron archives. Nic joined Steph to gush about Chris Cunningham and his controversial (and deeply problematic) short film, Rubber Johnny. Nic shares why he loves it so much and how it inspired his own passion for film, as well as highlights the exciting time of early 00's music videos. Then of course Steph shares why it’s such a yucky depiction of disability and debate exactly how problematic it is. Nic's love for Chris Cunningham doesn't diminish but he learns a thing or two about disability representation maybe? Watch the short film Rubber Johnny, with music by Aphex Twin, directed by Chris Cunningham. Content warning: abuse, chemical restraint/prn due to behaviour, drug use, disability used as horror, discussion of visual gore and ableist tropes. Nothing bad happens to the dog.
