Lillyth's brother, Ben, joins us (continued) to help us understand the role of genetics vs. environment in psychopathy, as illustrated by his own life experience growing up with their shared father, whom Lillyth did not know but would later learn to be a source of the genetic inheritance causing her son's psychopathy.

We're all hanging on by a thread, so come hang out with us for a while, just to chat. And let us know what hobby is helping keep you going...
Today we are joined by neuroscientist, psychologist, and professor, Dr. Abigail Marsh. Dr. Marsh, a Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program at Georgetown University, is here to help us to better understand psychopathy and the variation of human behavior. Her research, as well as research by others, have shown the importance of early screening in order to recognize the neurotype and the formulation of interventions to help reduce the development of the less desirable or more violent behaviors.
We're finally back! Taking a break from our series about more serious topics to invite you all to our Halloween party! We're hanging out with Priya & reading cards to see what to expect for the upcoming year.

Raising a child with psychopathy is to wonder if ever siren you hear is because of, or for, your kid. Parenting children with psychopathy changes you and the way you perceive and navigate the world. It forces you to find coping skills that most people never need; but it's the only way to survive. So, if you are one of these families, please know that you are not alone.
In Episode 3 of this series, we discuss the mistaken belief that psychopathy is caused by trauma. Naturally, trauma doesn't help anyone, but it doesn't cause the neurodevelopmental disorder. Lillyth Quillan, the first parent to publicly use her name and face to say she is the parent of a child with Conduct Disorder/Psychopathy and the founder of as online support groups for such parents, joins us for a series about Psychopathy, entitled Decoding Psychopathy & Conduct Disorder: An Exploration of the Most Important Neurodevelopmental Disorder You've Never Heard Of.
In Episode 2 of this series, we discuss the need for an entirely new diagnostic paradigm.

Third & final installment of Joell's story, parenting a violent child. Unfortunately, there is a glaring lack of resources to provide treatment for these kids and support to their families.
Part 2 of Joell's story, parenting a violent child. Unfortunately, there is a glaring lack of resources to provide treatment for these kids and suppor to their families.
Listener, Joell, saw Summer's videos about her experience parenting a child with psychopathy, and contacted us to tell her story, as well discuss the appalling lack of resources for these kids & their families.
As mentioned on our TikTok account, Summer recently received a letter from her daughter, who had to be removed from the home for the safety of the family, earlier this year. She chooses to be vulnerable and discuss this and welcomes perspectives from those with similar experiences.
Age, trauma, mental illness, neurological profile, etc. do not exempt us from accountability when we cause harm. Additionally, we deserve to heal and putting in the work to heal our own trauma history is so worth it.
We Missed Y'all! Sorry that we missed our last upload date, but we're back with a vulnerable look at the struggles that caused us to take a momentary step back & what we are doing for self care.
Leo Glazé speaks with us about the legacy of the Black Panther Party and the current state of affairs in this country.
Discussing U.S. systems of oppression, including capitalism and the Supreme Court, with our favorite historian, Leo Glazé.
Recently awareness of the struggle Summer has faced in trying to get appropriate care for her daughter has traveled beyond our previous audience. This is a broad overview of what has been happening, as well as an update since the last time we discussed the topic on the channel.
Why there can be no meaningful consent within the construct of purity culture... Also, do all ADHDers get distracted during sex, or is it just us? :D
Continuing our experiment with recording without masking our ADHD, we meander through topics of historical oppression-curtesy of colonization-, psychopathy, and grooming. Share your similar experiences in the comments...if you can keep up with wth we're topic we're even on at any given moment. :D
ADHD, the occult, and colonization, oh my! Amid the lighthearted banter about the chaos of our lives, we discuss ways in which our neurodiversities affect our lives...& also ways that capitalism is killing us.
Join us for a discussion of the roots of compulsory monogamy & how deconstruction led us to non monogamy. Very often, the conditioning that we've all received causes us to attempt to force ourselves into artificial social structures that may not fit us as people or our lives, causing harm to our mental health & our relationships. We encourage everyone to find relationships that enrich your life, rather than straining it; and to have many, healthy relationships beyond romance. Humans are social creature, we need community.
Listener submitted question: "Spring is Red Flag Season. What's up with exes trying to come back?" Do you have any stories of exes circling back around? Drop them in the comments.
This video wasn't originally recorded to be aired. It was simply us catching up and discussing daily struggles and ADHD. We decided to share it after receiving multiple comments from people expressing that they "wish they had it all together like we do". We assure you, you are not alone. Nobody has it all together. No one is ok all of the time. And there is no shame in that.
Our conversation with Victor continues with discussion of educational experiences (content warning for maltreatment of children) & inequity within the medical industry.
Join us for some neurospicy talk & let us know what you can relate to. We pick up the conversation with Victor on the topic of how our neurodivergent brains dream and recognize patterns.
Victor joins us for some conversation about life as neurospicy people. Naturally, this conversation went extremely long because...ADHD, so we're having a 3 part series. Join us for some neurospicy talk & let us know what you can relate to.

Josh joins us to talk about his personal experience with difficulty accessing Mental Health care and having to abruptly go off medications, as a result. Naturally, due to all of our experience growing up in Evangelicalism, we also discuss the intersection of our mental health and religious trauma.
Let's talk about adulting, self-care, the importance of prioritizing rest, and mushroom water...wait! What? Just watch...
Leo reminds all of us that history is made every day, as we discuss recent historical events.
