Guys! What an extra great set of comments this episode! I LOVE all the links you posted! Thank you heaps!!
Absolutely delightful–I wouldn’t mind a follow up episode at all 😉
It’s really frightening how common gaslighting is…and how we’re constantly told to mistrust our feelings. I’m glad to hear Janie worked through her issues. You might have read this already, but here’s a great article on the matter: http://thecurrentconscience.com/blog/2011/09/12/a-message-to-women-from-a-man-you-are-not-%E2%80%9Ccrazy%E2%80%9D/
It was even reposted on HuffPo 🙂
I’ve been powering through the recent episodes and as always–wonderful. Thank you, Janet!
That letter she wrote to her brother when she was a teen is too awesome.
Janet, if Chris pokes fun of you for this, should should get the intrepid Nerdist producer Katie to dig up the episode where he pined over the bookcases you two had.
