Mental Health (ft. Maria Konopken)

Show Notes

The wondrous Maria Konopken joins Cait as co-host to talk through a huge topic that we could only skim the surface of...Mental Health. We go all the way back to ancient Greece on this one to trace the evolution and development of the field of mental health care - it’s been a rough road from the beginning. We touch on the present day context and current status for how we’re doing amidst a teensy thing known as a global pandemic. Ever heard of it? The episode closes with an overview of Cait and Maria’s personal journeys with mental health and resources they’ve found helpful. 

While it was a heavy topic, we made sure to pepper in some discussion of...Fast and Furious 9, burlesque, and being cool with how much we cry.

What is Equally Funny?

Hosted by Cait Rogan--who was looking to put her Women’s Studies PhD to good use--and a rotating lineup of hilarious co-hosts, each episode of Equally Funny breaks down a topic related to social justice while bringing the laughs.

We talk through definitions, historical developments, present day context, and more. If you’ve ever been curious about this stuff, think of Equally Funny as a great starting point - a gateway drug, if you will, into the world of social justice. It’s totally fine if you get hooked.
