    Meet Ted

    Schizophrenia is scary. This podcast will help.  When a mysterious package arrived in our mailbox, wehad no idea that it would change our lives forever. It contained six home-made audio cassette tapes that detailed our friend Ted’s first-person journey intothe mind-bending mental disorder that is schizophrenia. It was terrifying. Yet, Ted’s storytelling is so charming - and generous- and funny - and heartbreaking, we quickly recognized its potential to change the lives of others. Now, complete with insights from Ted’s brothers, and schizophrenia expert and associate professor at the university of Calgary, Dr. Thomas Raedler, our friend Ted shares“Years Without Rain” a four-part podcast documentary that takes us inside thescary, confusing, amazing mind of a paranoid schizophrenic. Ted has created a rare opportunity to experience a severe mental disorder in first person.  We’re betting it will change your life too. Click the link for episode one.
