Hello and welcome back to the Psych Legal Pop podcast. This is a podcast where we talk about popular culture through the lens of an attorney and a therapist. I'm Tess Brigham. I'm the therapist. And I'm Brooke Brigham. I'm the attorney. I almost said attorney. I just stopped myself. I know. You're like, what? What am I? Yeah. well, with everything that's happening, have you seen this?
