Tim Dillon

Today on Unlicensed Therapy I am joined by comedian, writer, and actor Tim Dillon. Tim shares with us a bit of his backstory on how he went from mortgage broker during the housing crisis to then reaching a tipping point where he was faced with a number of underlying self-revelations that directed him to pursue a career in comedy. While working on getting recognition to his name Tim credits the majority of his fan base to podcasting and comedian peers. Fast forward to present day he has gained over 200k subscribers for his podcast on YouTube and has been featured on two major media platforms for his stand-up.In this episode we cover the festishization of mental illness and how over diagnosed it has become, partly as a result of people looking for an identity and finding it in what garners the most attention. In relation to that, we speak on the broad acceptance of overweight body types while ignoring the risks associated with obese people and all in the name of identity politics. On the other side of the spectrum we talk through the want to be in a committed relationship but the fear of rejection impeding that desire. Additionally, we discuss the feeling of being stagnant in your career while watching your counterparts succeed. As we wrap up the show Tim reveals to use at what age he became aware of his sexuality and why the feeling of anxiety while performing not only never goes away, but why it never should.

Brody Stevens

Today on Unlicensed Therapy, I am joined by comedian Brody Stevens. Brody started off his career in Los Angeles by taking a crash course in comedy before performing at monotonous open mics. Already disillusioned by the prospect of following this path into comedy, he was approached Danny Robinson who advised him to leave LA and find a smaller market. Having relatives in Seattle the decision to move there was quick and soon after Brody started doing public access on live cable. Although his following was beginning to grow the idea of becoming a T.V. personality rather than a stand-up comic was not what he envisioned so for this reason the decision to move to New York was made.On this episode Brody shares with us his experience in dealing with mental illness along with the various amount of medications that are prescribed. Never having the need to seek psychiatric help in his young years, Brody found himself being faced with the contradictory benefits of feeling “normal” but at the price of limited creativity. After numerous attempts of gradually weaning himself off of medications he finally found a balance while seeking home remedies but never dismissing the idea of going back. Make sure to stay with us until the end as Brody reveals his police encounter at Starbucks!

Rick Glassman

Today on the podcast we are joined by comedian and actor Rick Glassman. On this episode Rick shares with us how being diagnosed with Asperger syndrome late in life affected both his professional and personal life. Growing up Rick lacked the ability to read social and facial ques and as a result had little to no friends. Recognizing these limitations proved to be the easiest hurdle. Learning how to navigate through this condition on the other hand showed to be more challenging. As a high functioning adult Rick has been able to adapt almost effortlessly but not without the help of comedy. Comedy has directly improved his ability to connect with people through validation and although it is an ongoing battle his stage persona has formed into something you would not recognize from his young self. As we go further into the show Rick shares with us a few anecdotes confronting a security guard along with his basketball aspirations in college.
