Former Seinfeld writer and author, Andy Cowan, invites fellow neurotics to share his mini-therapy sessions with clinical and forensic psychologist, Dr. Scott Kopoian, towards the daunting goal of immunity to neurosis. Comedy and therapy – what could be more therapeutic than that? Along with post-session postscripts, comedy featurettes, and special guests.
“Unique in the podcasting space.. Delightful.. Engaging.. So good.. Fascinating and vulnerable.. Interviews are fantastic, entertaining, cathartic, as much as the therapy that kicks off the episode.. akin to an Olympic badminton event. I'm in awe." –DISCOVERPODS

Customer Reviews
Unlike anything I’ve heard before
The supercharged specials introduced me to how laugh out loud smart, clever, creative, funny, vulnerable, nd densely entertaining this therapy/comedy podcast is. Andys “problems” in life are aimed at connecting with our own, if not with AI DR K! Unlike other comedy podcasts, nobody interupts and every carefully conveyed word word leads to something. Glad to be a new subscriber!
One of a kind comedy
Andy and Dr, Scott, This is great!
A creatively fresh comedy under a therapeutic umbrella. It’s not only funny but wise. Never heard anything quite like it. Very enjoyable. Thank YOU!
Neurotic Vaccine(s)
I’m not a podcast guy, until now. This was recommended by a comedian friend who kept reminding to listen. I’m hooked. Soooo fun. The takes by Cowan are better than standup. To tell you to truth I felt a bit distracted by the guests. I’m still not going to listen to podcasts other than NC. I’ve got stuff to do. (Thankfully, I can listen on my phone. I had to use a friend’s phone to review this…sorry Apple. Steve Young)
