Not Therapy Adam Strauss and Jordan Eipper, MD

With lockdowns easing and weather warming, everything's looking up. So why's Adam so anxious? Plus, the benefits of OCD, resenting those we love, and a near-violent mask-shaming altercation.

Adam's ongoing stay at his parents' house sets the stage for Jordan to dig into Adam's incendiary relationship with his parents growing up. The breeds of all dogs discussed have been changed to protect the innocent.

As Jordan finds himself pulled between intense love and intense fear in his new relationship, he and Adam wonder whether he's uniquely broken or if these are types of challenges everyone deals with in love. Plus the vulnerability of sex, the trauma of the psych ER, and the mating display of the male turkey.

Jordan goes on a mountain vacation with his new love, Hannah, where he receives a disturbing message that makes him question everything. Meanwhile, a blizzard is about to hit, threatening to trap them alone in their tiny cabin with Jordan's spiraling doubts for a week or more.  

Jordan's new job at a psychiatric ER is the catalyst for a wide-ranging discussion about psychosis, psychedelics, psychiatry, plus other things that don't start with "psy".

The guys are back after a long hiatus, and everything's different. Adam's relationship with Clara is over. Now Jordan's the one in love - and he finds himself grappling with some of the same issues Adam confronted. The more things change, the more they stay the same....
