Welcome back to Analyze Scripts, where a psychiatrist and a therapist analyze what Hollywood gets right and wrong about mental health. Today, our summer party continues with "The Hangover." This 2009 comedy is the first of three and where we meet Doug, Alan, Phil, Stu and of course Mr. Chow. While the sound track is nostalgic, some of the jokes are a little *yikes.* We discuss Alan's behavior and social challenges as well as the abusive relationship between Stu and Melissa. Dr. Furey gives us the schoop on drugs and alcohol and we discuss serotonin syndrome. Sit back, grab some popcorn and your old "NOW" album from 2009. We hope you enjoy! INSTAGRAM TIKTOK WEBSITE Dr. Katrina Furey: Hi, I'm Dr. Katrina Fury, a psychiatrist. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I'm Portia Pendleton, a licensed clinical social worker. And this is Analyze Scripts, a podcast. Dr. Katrina Furey: Where two shrinks analyze the depiction of. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Mental health in movies and TV shows. Our hope is that you learn some legit info about mental health while feeling like you're chatting with your girlfriends. Dr. Katrina Furey: There is so much misinformation out there, and it drives us nuts. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And if someday we pay off our student loans or land a sponsorship, like. Dr. Katrina Furey: With a lay flat airline or a major beauty brand, even better. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So sit back, relax, grab some popcorn. Dr. Katrina Furey: Your DSM Five, and enjoy. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Hi there. Welcome back to another episode of analyze scripts with Dr. Katrina fury and portia pendleton licensed clinical social worker. We are going to dissect an interesting throwback movie today, the Hangover. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: You've been really excited about this one. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, it's from 2009, which is kind of a little bit nostalgic for both. Dr. Katrina Furey: Of us, like, almost 15 years ago. Dr. Katrina Furey: Wow. Dr. Katrina Furey: It's hard to believe. It feels like just yesterday people were wearing Allen Halloween costumes with a baby and a baby beyond. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I went to Las Vegas in 2000, and maybe, like, eleven, and I have a picture with a street performer, model performer of being Alan, like, holding a baby. Dr. Katrina Furey: Did you go there because of this movie? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: No, I didn't. I went there with my in laws, so not for we actually went there for Thanksgiving. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, that's an interesting Thanksgiving destination. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Oh, I like that. Yeah, it was totally different. It was hot. The food was delicious. We went to, like, brunch somewhere. Dr. Katrina Furey: Was it like a buffet? Dr. Katrina Furey: Brunch? Dr. Katrina Furey: Vegas has a lot of those. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't think it was a buffet, but I think it was just, like. Dr. Katrina Furey: A nice just nice. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: The only times I've been to Vegas were in childhood for dance competitions, like nationals. We went twice. So it's like, me, my family, my grandma was there both times, and we're just, like, trucking along. She's in her walker, and we did, like, children things. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Interesting. Dr. Katrina Furey: Wow. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, we we I was just, you know, of age or a little, you know, a little bit after, but it was it was a pretty typical Vegas experience. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: You know, unfortunately drank too much of the Kool Aid and felt so horrible. Dr. Katrina Furey: Like these characters. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Like these characters. It was obviously a little bit more embarrassing because I wasn't there with friends. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, yeah, you're in love. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Fun story. I remember calling my mom because, of course, this is just how it goes. You tend to turn up the most the night before you have to go home. Don't do that, please. And so I remember there was a lot of vomiting. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, God, Porsche. You love that. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It's my favorite thing. And I called my mom from the airport crying because I was so upset. I felt so horrible, and I was sick, and she was so mad at me. I guess as one would be of your daughter who's away with like well. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, I guess back then they weren't your in laws yet, probably, right? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: No, it was like maybe two years in. Dr. Katrina Furey: Was this like your first trip with them? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Second. Dr. Katrina Furey: Was it your first holiday with them? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't think so. Okay. Dr. Katrina Furey: But yeah, I wonder if they were testing you. Let's go to vegas and see what happened. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't know if I passed or failed. Dr. Katrina Furey: You know what? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I might have passed with flying colors. Dr. Katrina Furey: Wow. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: She can really have a good time. But I actually was ill for two days after. I think it was pretty serious. Like we see in the movie and we should not do. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, we'll talk about a little bit. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: I wonder if you got a roof feed. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't think so. Dr. Katrina Furey: I had memories. You were like, I remember every drop. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Of every drink, so don't do that. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know I've never had like a typical vegas experience, but now with all these singers and stuff having residencies there. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I know I always want to go. Dr. Katrina Furey: And not really like I mean, I'm like old now, but it would be fun to like I don't know if it would be fun anymore to go to a club. I think I'd like to go and just people watch for a little bit and then go to sleep early in a really comfortable circle bed. That's my goal at this phase. But if vegas wants to sponsor us, caesar's palace, feel free. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: The real caesar live here. So many good lines from the hangover. Like there's so many one liners, so. Dr. Katrina Furey: Many zach galifinacus, was this like his first big movie? I feel like he probably did other. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Stuff before, but this is like memorable. Dr. Katrina Furey: For me, for the general population. But he is so funny. Just like you said, like a lot of one liners. As he's saying it, I was like, oh, my god, I forgot about like, well, yeah, you can't ********** on a plane anymore since 911 or all of. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: A sudden him saying that he can't be within 2200ft of a school. Okay, is that from the masturbating on. Dr. Katrina Furey: A plane or that would do it. Yeah, that very well could do it. But yeah. So many funny, funny lines. It is really funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So just kind of being a little bit nostalgic. It was released in 2009. We both kind of pre just sitting down now. We're like the music. There's so many good throwbacks. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Like all the songs they picked, like the ti and rihanna song, a lot of kanye west songs. A lot of the music was so I loved at the end, the band at the wedding. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, yes. Dr. Katrina Furey: What song were they singing? Candy shop. Is that like a $0.50? But I just love how he's so into it and all up in the elderly people's space. I just love that sometimes. I love a good wedding movie like this. I was like, we should watch Bridesmaids sometime and talk about it. Totally. Some of them are just so good. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, my God. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So we did want to kind of just add in that a lot of the comments also have not aged well. Dr. Katrina Furey: And we do not support using slurs any kind. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I mean, there's a lot of racism. Dr. Katrina Furey: And ableism and homophobia. Phobia. Yeah, a lot. Like, really? Right in your face. Right from the jump. And I was like, oh, I don't think you could make this movie today. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I'm used to catching it on TV and seeing 20 minutes. Here they are laughing hysterically. And I think they do also edit some of this stuff on TV when it's shown. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, you mean you're used to catching the hangover on TV? Yes. Like on TBS or something. Where there's commercials. Yeah, for sure. I think they'd edit it out. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So watching it on Netflix, and we were excited because it was released to Netflix. I think they got all three of them. And so that's why we were like, let's do it. And then I was like, wow, okay, I'm taking some notes on it. And I'm, like, feeling a little uncomfortable. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Yeah, 100%. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: So that stuff we do not support, we will come out and say wholeheartedly yes. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So the movie, we were like, how do we even talk about this? We kind of wanted to just spend time on relationship and then like, substance use, drug use, just like some maybe like educational info on that. And then just like, obviously the hilarity of waking up and having a tiger. Dr. Katrina Furey: In your I know, it's really, really funny. And I kept thinking, like, was this the one where Stu gets the tattoo? But I guess not. I guess that maybe is the second or third one. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I thought it was for a moment because Mike Tyson is in it. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right. But I think that's like, maybe the next one. Dr. Katrina Furey: I don't know. Dr. Katrina Furey: Maybe we'll have to watch it. Yeah. So to give a rundown of the characters, in case you haven't seen this movie in the past 15 years or so. So we have Doug, who is played by Justin Bartha. Is that his last name? I can't remember. He's like the groom who's set to be married. Side note, do people actually have bachelor parties that close to their wedding day? That seems like a terrible idea. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, no, not that I've ever been right. Dr. Katrina Furey: Usually it's months ahead. And I think this is why. This is like a cautionary. So we have he's going to be the groom. Then we have Alan, who's played by Zach Alfanakis, who is the brother of Tracy, I think is the bride's name. Oh, my God, he is so funny. I'm sure we'll talk more about him. Dr. Katrina Furey: Then. Dr. Katrina Furey: We have Bradley Cooper, looking beautiful. Such a snack, as they say in the role of Phil. I love that his name is Phil, too, but he's, like, really beautiful, and he's a teacher. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It makes it just funny, like, everything about him, his beauty, and then that's what he does. And then he seems like he doesn't really like his life, or so he says. Steals money from the kids, field trip. Dr. Katrina Furey: To go to Vegas. Dr. Katrina Furey: But I don't know, at the end. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: He was, like, super stoked to see. Dr. Katrina Furey: His family, so that was nice. And then we have Stu, played by Ed Helms, who's hilarious. I thought he was so funny. I'd never seen him in anything before, the Hangover, and now I've seen him in a lot of different things. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Tell me what he's been in since. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, Porsche. He voiced the particular role of The Lorax and the animated film The Lorax, which, again, you would not have seen. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: But I have seen many times. Yeah, I've seen the original. Dr. Katrina Furey: There's an original lorax. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: From, like, childhood. It's like a cartoon. I mean, I've saw it when I was a child. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, but you haven't seen the modern day correct spin off, right? Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: And he sings, like, all the songs. Yeah, I've listened to them ad nauseam. And I choose that phrase deliberately. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I feel like I'm picking up what you're putting down. Dr. Katrina Furey: And then we have Ken Jiang, who plays the role of what was his leslie. What was his last name? I don't remember Leslie. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: He was just, like, a funny little. Dr. Katrina Furey: What did you think of his character? Side note again, doing a lot of side notes this morning. He was originally training to be a physician. I don't know if he was a physician or if he then broke away and decided to pursue acting in comedy, but I always remembered that because I think this came out right as I was applying to medical school, and I was like, that's interesting. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, I've seen a couple of his comedy specials. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh god. Netflix. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, they're hilarious. I think he's so funny, and I believe that he was like he went all the way through. I think he is like a medical doctor and was just, like, basically for. Dr. Katrina Furey: Me, basically, he's in my music. I picked up a lot of racism with his character, which I wasn't loving. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, what else did he not in. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It for that long. Again, he's so funny. His comedy specials are hilarious, and he's been in way more since then. Dr. Katrina Furey: But I think he wasn't in it long. But he was like a broke breakout star. And him jumping out his voice trunk of the car and just, like, all the little things he was saying were really funny. And then in one of the sequels, I think he has a much bigger role than the sequels, if I remember correctly. But so he's hilarious. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Mike Tyson makes Mike appearance, which is. Dr. Katrina Furey: Hilarious random, but then it made sense. Like, oh, that's Mike Tyson's, tiger. Dr. Katrina Furey: I don't know. Dr. Katrina Furey: I really liked how the whole movie unfolded. How it starts with the wedding day and you see they're all disheveled, and you're like, oh, my God. And then the flashback is they're, like, trying to piece together their night. Dr. Katrina Furey: I don't know. Dr. Katrina Furey: I really liked that. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So basically, you see them take the car, right? So Alan's father's car, he lets Doug take, which is a classic. Dr. Katrina Furey: It looks beautiful. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And there's all these rules around. Don't let Alan don't have a tiger destroy the leather seats. Dr. Katrina Furey: He forgot to mention that rule. Yeah, he didn't specify that rule. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Don't get T boned by people who are trying to kill you with guns. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: Didn't specify that either. He didn't let Alan drive. Correct. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So we have to be really careful with directions we give. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: It's really important to communicate clearly, effectively and deliberately. Right. We talk about this all the time. We can't read mines. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right away. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: We also see that Stu is lying to his partner. Dr. Katrina Furey: What do you think of Melissa? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I mean, she sounds abusive and best. Like, horrible. Dr. Katrina Furey: Horrible. Dr. Katrina Furey: I just loved I rewound and watched their first scene together twice and I could do it many times because it was so funny. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yes. Dr. Katrina Furey: She's like, don't forget the rogue. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Don't forget to use it. Dr. Katrina Furey: And just, like, the way she enunciates everything. And I loved her banks and her glasses and the way she would move away from him when he tried to give her a kiss. And just all the things. It was so funny to me. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then Stu just drops these little things on the trip that are just. Dr. Katrina Furey: Like everyone's like, what? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: What do you mean? You're not allowed to do this? Or like, she doesn't like this. Dr. Katrina Furey: Or it's it's like pretending to talk to the proprietor. Bed and breakfast and napa. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And, like at the wine tour, when. Dr. Katrina Furey: He'S like, I can't put my card down, she checks. All these things are like red flags for an abusive relationship. And I did think it was interesting to see it where the woman is the abuser and the man is, like, the victim in this domestic violence relationship. Because usually we see it depicted the other way. Again, it's a comedy. But they were, like, spot on with a lot of the things. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I think toxic relationships beget toxic relationships. So it's like, it starts off as these rules, right? But then there's lying, because you can't break a rule and then there's worse consequences because you lie. I mean, it snowballs down the hill and gets to this huge thing. But, yeah, I think everyone obviously doesn't like her. And then Phil reminds everybody that she went on vacation and had sex with Carnival Cruise Line. Dr. Katrina Furey: Of course. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Bartender. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right? Dr. Katrina Furey: It is the bartender. At first he says bellhop, then it's bartender, then it's waiter. Then I just loved how throughout the movie, they kept calling him different things. And it was like, I don't know, I just thought that was funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And why was it okay? Dr. Katrina Furey: Because she didn't because he didn't come inside her. That's what Stu said. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And she was really drunk. Dr. Katrina Furey: She's really drunk. Right. And then Phil's like, do you believe her? And there's the cashier in the convenience store that's just, like, listening yeah. Listening to this. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Interesting. Dr. Katrina Furey: You can just tell that that's the logic Melissa had used to get out of this. Right. To not have any responsibility here. And he's sort of internalized it, and then he wants to propose to her, which, again, unfortunately, this grim runner ring that she had, the Holocaust. Oh, my gosh. But then I was like, you're going to propose at your friend's wedding? I didn't like that. No, I didn't like that. I loved that. He actually did get married to someone else instead, played by Heather Graham, the stripper who has a baby who they. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Then find didn't take care of in a very unsafe and oh, my God. Dr. Katrina Furey: Every time they showed the baby, like, in the car, in a seatbelt, I was just, like, felt, like, uncomfortable. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And didn't Alan say he was like, oh, I've done this before. Dr. Katrina Furey: And we were like, the first baby I found. The first baby I found. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: All of these really concerning children stories of his. Right. Like, can't go into interview of a school. Oh, my God, baby before I know. Dr. Katrina Furey: What is up with Alan? The whole movie, even his dad at the beginning suggested, like, there's something wrong with him, but no one really specifies what is it or is. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It not hard to know if it's, like, organic or if it's almost like. Dr. Katrina Furey: An intellectual disability kind of thing or. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Learned or I don't know. Or like a little bit personality. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right. Dr. Katrina Furey: Like kind of like Schizophel or Schizoid or something. Like in a cluster C realm. Yeah, 100%. He's hilarious. I feel like he carries the movie. He is so funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Never breaks character. Dr. Katrina Furey: Never. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Always like deadpan face. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: And I'm always like, how did they film this and not crack up laughing? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, I'm sure they did. I would love to see I love when they do that. Dr. Katrina Furey: Me, too. But how are they so straight faced? When he comes in, he's like, you ready to let the dogs out? And he's wearing his, like, wolf shirt and his his Indiana Jones natural. Dr. Katrina Furey: I just love that. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And the speech that he gives. I love before they all do a shot of Jaeger. Dr. Katrina Furey: I love it when he's like, how about that rider? I guess that's why they call it. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yes. Dr. Katrina Furey: And I'm like, Is he on the spectrum? I don't know. But oh, God, he's so funny. He's so funny. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And he just adds exactly what the movie needed. Dr. Katrina Furey: 100%. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: He makes me think of well, this movie in general makes me think of, like, super bad. All those movies that kind of came out along the same time that are just almost the same group of comedians. Dr. Katrina Furey: Or, like, Will Ferrell back writers. Oh, my God, it's so fun. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: They're like bathroom humor. Dr. Katrina Furey: I think it was. Humor is, like, putting it mildly. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Like teenage humor, when you don't know better than to say horrible things. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, exactly. Dr. Katrina Furey: But you're adult men. But again, I think this tracks for bachelor parties. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right? Dr. Katrina Furey: I mean, I've never been to a bachelor party, but I'd imagine this might happen in a smaller way. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, I mean, I feel like I've heard through the grapevine that is the gossip line of bachelor parties that look exactly like this. Not in the sense of, like, there's maybe people with guns and a tiger, but going to Vegas and having strippers and also doing pretty nasty things that I would, as a partner, be very not okay with, and I just don't like that culture. Dr. Katrina Furey: I was wondering, with Tracy, I felt so bad for her, and I was like, is she going to go through with the wedding? Right. I felt so bad if she's, like, waiting there to see if he's going to show up. I don't know if I'd go through with that. Right. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: That would be a huge red flag. Dr. Katrina Furey: Huge red flag. Right. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then her never communicating with him. It's not like something he went around the way there. Yeah, he's like, oh, I know we broke down, or, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the alarm didn't go off, or something like that. It's just like, no, you were so irresponsible. Right. But also, then they did get drugged without their consent, to be quite honest. Dr. Katrina Furey: To be fair. Right. Yeah, that was a twist. But then it turns out he thought he was slipping everyone ecstasy, which, again, not great. Still not great to do, like, without consent. But then turns out it's roofies, roofies all his friends, and that's why they can't remember anything. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I remember hearing that line over and over and over again of, like, why don't they call it Flories? Because you end up on the floor. Obviously. Super funny. But yeah, it's from the movie. Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: Do you mean you heard the line after the movie? And that finally cute, Stew, to realize, like, oh, he's on the roof. Oh, my God. And, like, when he when Alan is, like, doing the Blood Pact yes. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And they're like, what are you doing? Cutting himself on top of the roof. Like. Dr. Katrina Furey: I didn't love that. Like, the only black character was the drug dealer. Like, stuff like that. I'm just like. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Besides Mike Tyson. But Mike Tyson That's true. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, that's true. That's Mike Tyson. Right. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And the drug dealer's name, of course, is Doug. Right. So that's why they ended up getting. Dr. Katrina Furey: Confused and all the things. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: I did think the plot was really funny. I liked all the twists and turns, but how they did, like, add up. And I loved at the end with the credits, how you saw all the photos that kind of explained it. At the end, I was like, okay. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: You see Stu pulling out his tooth because so Stu is a dentist, which I think the joke throughout the whole thing is like, that he's a doctor, but he's a dentist. He's not really a doctor, I have to say. Dr. Katrina Furey: Okay, so when I came to residency, our landlord was a dentist, which fine, I love dental professionals. I appreciate what they do for our oral health and everything, but he really wanted us to call each other doctor. Like, when we moved in, he was like, so I'm going to call you Dr. Fury, and you call me Dr. So and so. And it just was weird. I was just like, you could just call me Katrina. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: So I don't know. I thought of him when I was watching. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I think in that way there's like a little bit of, like a stereotype maybe, for a reason. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Even if there's one person. But I feel like I get that. Dr. Katrina Furey: Sometimes when people are like, oh, you're a psychiatrist. But I'm like, Well, I at least did go to medical school. Okay. But no, I really liked that when they were this is under doctor stew, whatever. Like, at the hotel. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then when they go to the hospital yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: And it's like, HIPAA, HIPAA violation. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: HIPAA violation everywhere. Dr. Katrina Furey: With, like, the old man. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: They're just, like, in there performing an exam. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, that would not happen. But yeah, when Sue's like, oh, let me read that. I'm a doctor, too, and then the actual doctor is like, you're a dentist. You told me over and over last night. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then he takes a bribe right, to give him a chart. Dr. Katrina Furey: It's really funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I like that actor, so I really enjoy the show Veep on HBO. Dr. Katrina Furey: I always wanted to see that show. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It's hilarious. It's such a good political, like, satire comedy. And so I don't even know his real name for being a person on the Earth. I know his name in Beep, which is Mike McClintock, and he's the press secretary. And he is so funny and all seven seasons. So I was like, oh, my gosh, there's Mike. Yeah, that's cool. Dr. Katrina Furey: Before he was the doctor. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: I love it. I love it's. So funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Let's talk about drugs a little bit. Okay, so they wanted to do ecstasy, or that was the I'm sorry, alan wanted them all to do ecstasy, which is more of a hallucinogen. Hallucinogen. It's typically not supposed to cause a blackout, like, if taken correctly, quote unquote. Dr. Katrina Furey: I feel like the biggest risk is, like, dehydration, right? Like, you dance a lot. It's like the love drug. And you sweat a lot, you get dehydrated, which can have, like, electrolyte issues, heart issues, seizures. But this is, like, what people do at Coachella. Yeah, I think I've never been to Coachella again, but I feel like that's yeah. Like, any rave or coke. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I mean, it's it's pretty popular. Yeah. I think the biggest kind of consequence of ecstasy is just like when you're coming off it so you then are really going to crash serotonin and you. Dr. Katrina Furey: Can feel really depressed. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It's worse for some than others, depending on your body, depending on how much you take, depending on how your serotonin levels are to begin with. So I know that that can be problematic for people because then sometimes there's like a compensation where you either want more or you might take another substance. Dr. Katrina Furey: To feel better than ever. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. And also, I think it's really risky if you take a serotonergic medication like an SSRI or an antidepressant that increases your serotonin and then you're doing this, you would run the risk of a really dangerous condition, serotonin syndrome, which is where you have way too much serotonin. So you're like, sweating. Your blood pressure is really high, your heart rate is really high. You have diarrhea, you're vomiting portion your favorite thing, but that can be life threatening. So I think that's another big risk of using these party drugs. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah. And also just like, if we're going to partake in a party drug, you really don't want to mix things. People who I think they're probably not Attic rave are typically only doing like, ecstasy or MDMA and there's waters there. And again, obviously there's risks because we don't know where it's coming from or what it's cut with, so on and so forth. However, I think people, if you're trying to be more responsible with it, you're not mixing substances. Dr. Katrina Furey: That reminds me, I was giggling because I'm just, like, so naive in so many ways that I went to a Fish concert with my husband. I've been to a couple now, and at one of them, they were like, passing out water, and I was like, oh my God, that's so nice of Madison Square Garden to be just, like, passing out free water. They could charge like $10 a bottle here. And my husband just like, shook his. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Head, especially at a Fish concert. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know, but I was like, oh my God. I answered Steve. That thing? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah. That's really great of you. That's sweet. Dr. Katrina Furey: But that's also nice of them trying to help the public, I guess, right? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Because they don't want ambulance lines taking people out. But again, and this is my own stereotype, I guess, I feel like there's certain artists or concerts where people are responsible drug takers, if that makes sense. Like, I would suspect at a Fish concert, you're a little bit older, you're not 16, typically going to a Fish concert. Dr. Katrina Furey: Sometimes you are maybe with your dad. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: These people typically kind of know what they're doing. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, they've been around the box, like. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Their 40th Fish concert. They have their outfit and they're just feeling good, swaying. And the stadiums or the arenas know that. So they provide water. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Dr. Katrina Furey: I was shocked. I was like, wow, this is really I am thirsty. It's so nice. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't think it was foam, but there was like a tour of Raves when I was in college that would kind of go around and they'd play music and have a lights show and a lot of people would take ecstasy or MDMA and go and it was almost school sponsored. You know how artists would come for spring concert or something like that? So there was one and I went and I don't think I'm as naive maybe as you. I don't like to take substances that I don't know exactly where they're coming from just because of my anxiety. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I don't think I could ever have a good time. Dr. Katrina Furey: I don't like feeling out of control. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, shocking. So a lot of people I know were rolling and took something and just they had bottles and big buckets of water there. So I think it's a thing just to kind of reduce the risk and the liability at the concert. That's what it's about, I think. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: They don't want to get sued. And then I'm like but then it's like enabling this. And how do we feel about that as a society? I don't know. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, but mixing alcohol with anything is so much more dangerous. You know what I mean? Dr. Katrina Furey: It's risky. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: It's not something that you really want to be doing. I think besides Rufalin being a drug that literally makes you black out scary, they are also drinking on it and it seems drinking excessively from the pictures and they're spotting. Dr. Katrina Furey: Maybe they were doing cocaine, too. There were some pictures of Carrot Top doing some lines. I get another throwback. That's so funny. I wonder what he's up to today. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Hopefully he's good, clean. Dr. Katrina Furey: Maybe he's listening. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: What's up, Caratop? We did want to talk a little bit about date rape drugs of which Rufalin or GHB gamma hydroxybutyric acid is like, one of the most common ones. And then there's Rohipnol, which is another one. So these are like super dangerous, mostly because they're clear, so you can slip it in people's drinks. I think that's, again, how Alan did it. I think that's sort of what we remember from our college days of being really careful. Like, don't take a drink from a stranger. Don't leave your drink somewhere. And it is really dangerous and it happens still. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: This is not something that has gone away. Dr. Katrina Furey: Listen to any true crime podcast. You will find an episode about someone being drugged like this and taken advantage of. It's really scary. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I think you might believe or have this dance of, like, it's not going to happen to me, or group of people are fine. And it's like you really don't know people. Dr. Katrina Furey: Just like how this movie shows. Yeah. Like, none of them suspected. Alan would. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: You can be at a party and know. 35 of the 40 people and one of the 35 that you know, can do it. Dr. Katrina Furey: It's really scary. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Something that, you know, there's a lot of things that have come out about or like what am I trying to say? Like, somebody created a thing that you. Dr. Katrina Furey: Can put over your dress and write. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Like, a scrunchie that then turns into. Dr. Katrina Furey: Like, a little cat. That's what I was going to say. This stuff was not available when I was in college. But they have, like, test strips. There's a lot of stuff coming out on the market or that's already out, which I definitely think is helpful, maybe. I mean, for everyone to be mindful of, but I think especially women to just be mindful of. Never accept a drink from a stranger or like an open drink. It's just scary. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I think the best thing that you can do is make sure that you are at a party or a bar with a friend and at least one a group of people is best. Dr. Katrina Furey: And don't leave without each other. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: There's no way you're leaving. Set the precedent at the beginning of the night. It doesn't matter. Like, oh, well, I want to go home with so and so. You can do that another time. You can meet up another time. But just like, not letting people leave alone or get left. I've heard stories of bartenders participating. Dr. Katrina Furey: Exactly. Dr. Katrina Furey: People. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So even if you're doing all the right things, it still can happen to you. So the real fail safe is having friends who you absolutely trust will get. Dr. Katrina Furey: You out safe safely. Yeah, exactly. And getting things like a bottle of beer or a white claw or something you have to see them open is probably the safest thing. Too scary out there? Yeah, it is. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And of course, the movie is a comedy, so it's going to make light of it and kind of joke about it. But obviously without this movie, it's not funny. Dr. Katrina Furey: Right. But again, a lot of the medical information was really accurate. The way they depicted them, like waking up with no memory super common. You totally don't remember anything. I think that's where it gets really scary is like when you wake up and your clothes are disheveled or you don't remember even when they were at the Er and the doctor was like, oh, I think you were raped last night. And they were like, oh, my God. Was I? Yeah. That's how scary these drugs are. You really have no memory. So some signs that you may have been roofied is if you start to feel like, really out of it, kind of dizzy, really sleepy. Like if you're worried about a friend or something that they might be a little stumbly, their speech might be slurred, they're just out of it in a way that seems different and I would say more pronounced than having too many drinks. It's really, like they said should be called a floor. You end up on the floor and then you can't move. Right. Some people might experience some psychotic symptoms, like hallucinations, seeing or hearing things that aren't there. It can affect your heart rate and blood pressure. It's really dangerous, but basically it does knock you out. You're breathing, but you're kind of unconscious, like you're just not with it. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I think it's good to know if you are kind of on the party scene, like how drinking affects you. You know what I mean? If you know, after one drink, three drinks, five drinks, this is how you typically feel and you were feeling very different, that's a bad sign. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I think also typically with drinking, there's stages. You might feel a little bit of body relaxation, then you might be a little bit tipsy. Dr. Katrina Furey: Things start to get a little fuzzy. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Or you start to get a little more animated and loud. And then you might hit the drunk stage where a little bit more slurring, a little bit more out of control in whatever way it affects you. And then we see kind of people really out of control, whether you're passing out, whether you're falling, being I don't want to crazy, like just like running around and then kind of passing out. Right. Like slurring obviously happens early on. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: And like, with a roofie, the timeline to passing out is like way quicker and more pronounced and more dramatic and it's less of the slurry giggly or irritable drunk person. It's more like, I don't feel very good. So, yeah, these are sort of the things to look out for and be mindful of with your friends. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I think we talked about this when we went over the show. You Netflix with Joe Goldberg. We really got roofy to come. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: We should just not be obviously don't roofy anyone. Duh. But also don't give your friends drugs without them knowing it because you think it's funny or like they're going to like it. It's actually like a crime. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, it is a crime. Porsche it is. And also, like, you don't know. These are like middle aged men. Like, what if they're on heart medication, blood pressure medication? They could have stroked out or had a heart attack. But Alan, I don't think is all there. So he's not thinking about all this stuff. He just wants to have a good time with his buddies. I love that he was the one who ended up, like, winning all the money back. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I know that he's this card shark, but again, it tracks. Kind of like a savant, right? Like having a really high level gift for me. It's kind of a little bit more spectrumy, almost. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, exactly. So I think when they're like, oh, he's not all there, and then we think, okay, so we came out in 2009. So how old would Alan have been in childhood? How much were we screening for these things? If we really think about it. It seems like he comes from a family of means, so they could have pursued whatever they needed, and there's just something off about him. But I think, again, that kind of tracks with this character. He does seem really intelligent in some ways, but then social cues are really hard for him to read. Right. Which tracks. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Right? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah. So another thing that we kind of see them go through is their experience with the police. Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, my God. When I was rewatching this with my husband, he was like, oh, my God. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I forgot about the fault scene. Dr. Katrina Furey: And I love sorry to interrupt. I'm just getting, like, really excited when they pull around the car for the Valley. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I know, it's a cop car. And then, like, Phil is just living his best life, taking advantage of this moment, and then it's on the sidewalk telling all these people to move, commenting on this woman's *******. Meanwhile, they're like, everything that we're doing right now is literally a felony. Like, please pull over. Please stop. Stew is kind of panicking. They have the baby in the back, just, like, strapped in. Not in a car, not sitting there. Dr. Katrina Furey: It was so funny. Yeah. And then I loved those two cops. I thought they were hilarious. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: The man looked familiar. Dr. Katrina Furey: He did. I think he's been in maybe, like, parks and river, like a show. Oh, my God, they were so funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So one of my favorite laugh out loud moments is when Alan gets tased and doesn't go down. And he's just, like, coming towards the kid still that he's, like, mad at because the kid gave him a bad look later. And so then the cop shoots him in the neck, and he's like, Sometimes these big guys need another charge. And then he was, like, down. And that's how they get out of their charge. They are tased in front of kids. Dr. Katrina Furey: In front of children. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And the kids do it. Dr. Katrina Furey: It's so funny. Oh, my God. No. And that's when they all realize why they're there. And they're like, Wait, what? I didn't agree to be caged. It's so funny. It's such a funny movie. It is. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I really enjoy it. It parts I didn't love. Dr. Katrina Furey: All the fat shaming of Alan, all of that stuff. Yeah. You know? Portia Pendleton, LCSW: But such also, like, I think just a depiction of the times. Dr. Katrina Furey: Exactly. Dr. Katrina Furey: You know, say, like, in 2009. That was cool. Yeah, that's fine. God, it's so funny. Bradley Cooper is just gorgeous. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. I don't know what else to say. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Him and Matthew McConaughey. Sometimes I even get them confused. Yeah, they have a similar vibe. But I really do enjoy watching Bradley Cooper. Dr. Katrina Furey: Both of them. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: I will say it was really interesting. When I was watching the movie, there was a scene where Stu is, like, without his lateral incisor, which I love that he was like, My lateral incisor. And he's, like, singing at the piano. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And I was like, oh, yes. Dr. Katrina Furey: I was like, I find you attractive right now. Dr. Katrina Furey: I don't know why. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Who has that same missing, too? Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, okay. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, we all have a type. Dr. Katrina Furey: Unclear. Yeah, apparently. Dr. Katrina Furey: That's fine. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: That song is hilarious. I feel like I wrote down I don't think I wrote down exactly, but just like, it made me laugh. His rhyming. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: I think maybe it's like, what do. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Tigers dream of when they're taking a little snooze? And I was like, wow, you're a great pianist. Dr. Katrina Furey: I was like, wow, you're a real renaissance man dentist. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Who deserves a better partner. Dr. Katrina Furey: I know. Dr. Katrina Furey: I kind of did want to see and I can't remember in movies two and three, like, does Heather Graham's character come back? Dr. Katrina Furey: No. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: So he's with someone who's new. Yeah, totally new. The second movie is Stu getting married to a new person and they go. Dr. Katrina Furey: To Thailand for his party. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Then he has the tattoo. Dr. Katrina Furey: Okay. Yeah. Dr. Katrina Furey: Watch that again. We have to just do a whole Hangover series. Yeah. I was really proud of him when. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: He broke up with me, and I. Dr. Katrina Furey: Was like, glad others witnessed it because she is so awful and mean to him and just puts him down. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then Alan kind of flirts. I was like, Are they going to get together? Dr. Katrina Furey: Interesting. What did he say? He's like, what did he say? Like, I'm in school to be a dentist. Or he said something that was really funny. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: She was like, Are you farting with me? Dr. Katrina Furey: Oh, gosh, she's so mean. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: She's just like an ugly person on the inside. Dr. Katrina Furey: He said that? And I was like, yeah, that's how you yes, that's true. Say you're a piece. So, yeah, I was glad when that relationship unraveled. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: And then we see Doug, he's like, burnt to a crisp. Everything hurts. Which I think most people have been in the sun too long, but you're not burned all day, like, on the road. Dr. Katrina Furey: He must be dehydrated. Like, he needed fluid. Oh, my gosh. He needed some food. But yes. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: I mean, The Hangover is just like a funny throwback movie, I think. Take what you can from it. Like a silly story. Dr. Katrina Furey: But again, despite being silly, despite some a lot of content that hasn't aged well, there were good depictions of some medical things, like getting roofied, toxic relationship dynamics, bro, friendship culture, sort of dynamics. And then maybe like Alan. Yeah, I thought there was a good depiction overall. And again, I don't know what to diagnose it with, if anything, maybe that's just him. But I am kind of leaning more toward maybe on this spectrum. Like, again, having some sort of Savanti type skill with math, it seems. Portia Pendleton, LCSW: Yeah, I think that and the speech that was like the drive in, I think, to me kind of feels a little bit more like autism. I think so, too, but he's pretty high functioning through life just fine with all of his contacts. Dr. Katrina Furey: Yeah, exactly. All right, well, thank you all for listening.
