In this episode, the whole family goes to a little mountain resort town to stay in a traditional Japanese Ryokan. Listen as they soak their weary feet in an onsen filled by natural volcanic hot springs.  Hear them boldly soar above an active sulfur mine in a cable car.  This place is kinda weird. And cool.

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
