And How Does That Make Jew Feel? (Episode 35)

December 31, 2018 7:44 pm

The Nice Jewish Fangirls return, and this time, they’ve got a professional! Dr. Avigail Gordon joins the NJFs to explore and explain depictions of mental health and therapy in popular culture, from Monk and Frasier, to Batman and Daredevil. What works when exploring mental health in fiction? What really doesn’t? And how can artists do right when exploring mental health in the future?

In this episode, SM, Tamar, Michal, and Avigail also obsess over The Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir, a very millennial movie projector, The Calculating Stars by Mary Robinette Kowal, and The Power by Naomi Alderman.

What are your highs and lows of mental health representation in fiction?

"If you're ever working with me and I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect, talk down to someone, I promise I will fire you on the spot."

My son Netanel - who tested positive for COVID-19 but is feeling good - on his way to a hotel for yeshiva students who tested positive. They can interact with each other, learn Torah, and pray in a quorum without fear of transmitting disease to others.

“Politics doesn’t have to be a raging fire, destroying everything in its path. Every disagreement doesn’t have to be a cause for total war.”
