An Introduction to Adderall

The results from Coree's ADHD tests are back, and the doctors say there's only prescription: do more podcasting! They also prescribed her Adderall! So buckle in because this episode is going to ride that amphetamine coaster till the wheels fall off. You will hear Coree experience the early effects of her new drug, which includes a lot of highs and some very heavy emotional valleys. Consider this a trigger warning. You'll also hear our hosts cover a wide array of topics, from Elsa's recent hospitalization, to embezzling funds, to butt pics, to Pokemon, to ear hygiene, to watching Brokeback Mountain for the first time. All that in just one podcast episode—you can't beat that value! Our show is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with Sodabags Studios and your town is next. Media. This episode was engineered and produced by Alex Fleming and Alexander Scott. Special thanks to Morgan Pielli for our show artwork and Intellectual Dark Wave for our theme song, from his album Labor Songs.

How Do We Forgive, And Who Deserves It?

You've made it all the way to episode four of the podcast. Give yourself a pat on the back; you've earned it, and you are valid. This week, Coree and Elsa get down to the heart of the matter, although their wills get weak and their thoughts seem to scatter. But I think it's about forgiveness? Or maybe I've just been listening to too much Don Henley. Forgiving others and forgiving ourselves are both heavy tasks, and not everyone is ready for The Big Forgive. It's enough to actually make one of our hosts cry, in fact. Only took us four episodes to get there. Our show is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with Sodabags Studios and your town is next. Media. This episode was engineered and produced by Alex Fleming and Alexander Scott.

The Attention Deficient Detective

From The Choirgirl Hotel, with Amber Drea

Our scrappy little show welcomes its first official guest storyteller, Amber Drea! A mainstay of the West Chicago comedy scene, Amber is a writer, performer, record collector, musician, mom, and all-around Renaissance Woman. This week's subject is the work of Tori Amos, a world renowned award-winning singer/songwriter who had that one song about, well, y'know. It wasn't subtle. All love and respect to a native Baltimorean. Your humble narrator, Alexander Scott, was recently featured on an episode of the PBS showcase Stories From The Stage! See Alex's breakthrough performance on their YouTube Channel, as well as a brief interview about this hideous man's creative process. Please like and leave a comment!

Impostor Syndrome is Sus

Ha ha, it's a very timely Among Us reference, and also the topic of this week's episode! For this sophomore outing of You're Fine, Coree and Elsa explore the cruel bastardry that Impostor Syndrome exacts upon so many of us. Learn the various forms that it takes, how to recognize its intrusiveness, and ultimately develop mechanisms to cope with and negate it. You'll also learn our do's and don't's for maintaining healthy boundaries with mental health professionals. And we welcome our first guest to the podcast: Elsa's weed dealer! What other podcasts would will let you listen in on a live drug deal? Not many, that's for damn sure. Content Warning: This episode features more of Coree's singing than typically occurs over the course of an hour. You're Fine is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with Sodabags Studios and your town is next. Media. This episode was engineered and produced by Alex Fleming and Alexander Scott.

Cutting Dogs and Sawing Logs

Hi. You got a second? Remember how, last week, we were talking about turning horses to glue, and cleaning hamster cages? We really couldn't have done all that without your help. And then look at you! Look at all you have done, and you have accomplished in all that time. We just want to say we never forgot you, and you're fine. Yes, because this is a self-care podcast, we do give a shout-out to Steve from Blue's Clues this week. Elsa also obsesses over catching Pokémon, while Coree just respects that Grimer is living his best life. But the center of our discussion is one simple question: How do you sleep at night? And yeah, you can take that a lot of ways. Waiting Room Music: "Where Am I" by Text Me Records Our show is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with your town is next. Media.

How Gaming Consoles Us

Thank you for reaching our 19th episode, loyal listener! But our princess is in another castle! See what I did there? So it turns out the Polybius legends were true: video games can have potent effects on our brain chemistry. But don't take Joe Lieberman's word for it; more often than not, it's actually good for your mental health. Gaming has been shown in studies to provide a therapeutic outlet for reducing stress and improving brain function. Even when you're playing murder games like Elsa's current fave, Hitman 2. (We're open to sponsorships, IO Interactive!) Coree and Elsa take this opportunity to discuss the wide variety of games that help them get by, whether on mobile, PC or home consoles. Because all gaming is valid, and don't let anyone tell you different—if you agree, join us in tweeting #StopGatekeepingGames to spread the word. And along the way, Elsa introduces us to their secret lovechild, Red Jimmy-Jams. Our show is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with your town is next. Media.

Our Very Special 420 Debut

Welcome to the first episode of You're Fine, a mental health podcast that doesn't count toward your deductible! On their maiden voyage, hosts Coree Spencer (she/her) and Elsa Eli Waithe (they/them) invite you to share in their experiences with just keeping it together. You'll hear their stories of addiction and disorder, what they're smoking for self-care, and a lot of strange noises they make into their microphones. (We're still getting the hang of audio production, folks.) You're Fine is a production of Cinder Block Comedy, in association with Sodabags Studios and your town is next. Media.

Voicemails From The Edge

This week's regular episode has been postponed, as our hosts have each found themselves separated by tragic circumstances. Instead, we offer a brief glimpse into where they're at, emotionally and physically, and how they're meeting each new day. If you've been following our show, you may know that a number of emotionally taxing family issues have afflicted Coree in recent weeks, while Elsa has wrestled with health issues stemming from their hit-and-run injury. Those came to a head this past week, leaving us without the time or resources to record an episode. Still, we want to let you know how they're doing. We'll be back next week with a new episode, right on track. And no matter what you're going through, we hope you're keeping your spirits high, and you never stop trying.
