The start of a new year can push us to think about how we take care of ourselves – our bodies or our minds. And for some people that can mean seeking help for mental health issues like depression and anxiety. In some ways, being open about pursuing treatment for mental health concerns is becoming more commonplace. But for men who are socialized not to express vulnerability and keep emotions in check, seeking therapy may feel taboo. Black men must also contend with the long history of neglect and abuse that has influenced how generations of African Americans feel about health services, a lack of Black mental health professionals, and the understanding that shielding emotions is a way to face the pressures and dangers of racism. Host Michel Martins talks with writer Damon Young, author of What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker: A Memoir in Essays, and psychologist Earl Turner of Pepperdine University, on making therapy more accessible for Black men.Listen to more Consider This at these links: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, NPR.org, or anywhere you get your podcasts.

Tightwads are more likely to hold onto their money even when there is more than enough to spend, whilst spendthrifts will drain their bank account of its very last cent. So, which one are you, and how does that impact your relationships? Joining us today is the remarkable Marketing Professor and Author, Scott Rick. Scott has just penned a new book, Tightwads and Spendthrifts: Navigating the Money Minefield in Real Relationships, which serves as a guide for finding happiness while steering through money and love. To kick-start our conversation, Scott summarizes the relationship that people generally have with money, followed by a deeper exploration of the terms “tightwad” and “spendthrift”. We break down the psychology of tightwad and spendthrift behaviours, how these two personality types interact with one another in relationships, the myths of financial infidelity and transparency, and how bank account structures (joint and individual accounts) dictate how money flows in a relationship. We also assess the roles of financial advisors and gift-giving within relationships before Scott shares his thoughts on marrying for money versus marrying for love, how to give your kids the best financial education, and what he hopes every reader will gain from the truly fascinating and informative, Tightwads and Spendthrifts!    Key Points From This Episode: (0:00:33) Introducing the incredible Marketing Professor and Author, Scott Rick.  (0:03:08) Scott's summation of the relationship that people have with money.  (0:04:47)Diving into his latest book: Tightwads and Spendthrifts, and exploring each term.

For more takeaways from all of our guests, subscribe to the Sound Judgment newsletter and visit our blog. Learn to draw upon rhythm and music to improve your delivery on the mic. Ronald grew up with the musicality of the storytelling and the singing he heard in church, and that turned him into a storyteller who is enchanting to listen to. But we can all do this by feeling the rhythm and cadence of language: Where are the beats? Where are the breaths? It's not just storyboarding that makes great stories; it's how we deliver our stories. Don't censor yourself. At the beginning of the scripting process, Ronald's story editor, Sarah Deeley, had him write down all the ideas he had for each episode. Only then did they narrow those ideas down into a structured narrative. Build stories in layers. Think about context: what does the listener need to know, right now, to understand this episode? To tell a story about his college girlfriend, Ronald had to first explain some stuff about his childhood. What context do you need to offer to make your story land?

In particular, they discuss how approaching an opponent in a sword fight can be analogous to how characters approach conflict, such as: the distance between the characters, who chooses to engage first, how to feint, how to lure an attack by leaving yourself vulnerable, etc.  They reference classic conflicts such as Clarice interviewing Dr. Lecter in SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, when Miranda puts down Andrea in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, and the final showdown between Obi-Wan and Darth Maul in the animated series THE CLONE WARS.  You can find Damon Young here: Website: https://www.damonyoung.com.au/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/damonayoung/ Mastodon: https://mas.to/@damonyoung As always: SPOILERS ABOUND.

Y'all know how much we love documentaries. Today we're discussing the hilarious, profound, and deeply moving “Introducing Brian Broome” with producer and director Chris Ivey.The film is based on Brian Broome (duh!), Pittsburgh-based award-winning author of the memoir Punch Me Up to the Gods. It is a series of intimate conversations with other Black Pittsburgh creatives, including:Deesha Philyaw, award-winning author of The Secret Lives of Church Ladies (Y'all remember Deesha when we interviewed her about her book, now being made into a series for HBO Max!)Damon Young, columnist and author of What Doesn't Kill You Makes You BlackerVanessa German, citizen artist and creator of the photo series The BlacksInterspersed among the conversations are a few fabulous dramatic/comedic reenactments. You will love them! Awesome quote: “There is no thing in the world that is more important than you living the life that you want to live.” —Brian BroomeWhile the film is ostensibly about Brian, we also get a peek at this defining moment in time as some of these creative geniuses are getting ready to leave Pittsburgh—once ranked a top “livable” city in the United States, but not for Black people. Chris Ivey—who is known for bringing a keen and unflinching eye to urban issues, such as gentrification in the East Liberty neighborhood of Pittsburgh and the Grenfell Tower fire in London—also uses this film to shine a spotlight on a city that has never supported its Black artists.While we do share spoilers in this episode, feel free to listen even before you watch the film. You'll be falling all over yourself to watch if you haven't yet!You can rent the film on Amazon or Vimeo.https://www.introducingbrianbroome.com

For Black Men, Barriers To Mental Health Care Can Be Complex

Consider This from NPR

The start of a new year can push us to think about how we take care of ourselves – our bodies or our minds. And for some people that can mean seeking help for mental health issues like depression and anxiety. In some ways, being open about pursuing treatment for mental health concerns is becoming more commonplace. But for men who are socialized not to express vulnerability and keep emotions in check, seeking therapy may feel taboo. Black men must also contend with the long history of neglect and abuse that has influenced how generations of African-Americans feel about health services, a lack of Black mental health professionals, and the understanding that shielding emotions are a way to face the pressures and dangers of racism. Host Michel Martins talks with writer Damon Young, author of What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker: A Memoir in Essays, and psychologist Earl Turner of Pepperdine University, on making therapy more accessible for Black men.

The year was 2006, and Damon Young had just met a woman on MySpace. Their back-and-forth was witty, flirty and easy. They went on a first date at Barnes & Noble, where they browsed books and continued to vibe.Things were going great, Damon thought. That is, until she called off their second date. Damon was confused, but he had a hunch about what fueled her sudden disinterest: his teeth.Damon's teeth had always been a source of shame and anxiety for him. “I know that in America, good, strong, bright, straight teeth signal good, strong, bright, straight money,” he wrote in his Modern Love essay. “My mouth is a memoir. Of canceled orthodontist appointments when my parents couldn't afford the premium.”Today, Damon shares his story about his complicated, evolving relationship with his teeth — and his self-worth. Then, we hear a Tiny Love Story about a woman who reflects on her mother's ritual of doing her hair when she was a child, which she comes to realize was a sign of love.
