1991 film directed by Frank Oz
POPULARITY
What about Bill, actually? Bill Murray starred in the hit 1991 comedy, What About Bob? Playing the titular Bob, Murray was tasked with portraying a variety of mental health issues, much to the delight of critics and audiences. But now, decades later, is any of this a laughing matter? Is "stalking" adorable if the guy's Bill Murray? And is Richard Dreyfuss' Leo the good guy or something far sinister? The Old Roommates strap on some life vests and give this Frank Oz flick a revisit ... through their middle-aged lens. Grab some fluoxitine and join them!

We're cracking open 1991 like a fresh VHS rental and drafting the very best films the year had to offer. Rob, Dave, and Kurt will go head to head, assembling their dream rosters from a cinematic moment that still hums with electricity. This was the year of Terminator 2: Judgment Day rewriting the rules of the blockbuster, The Silence of the Lambs turning prestige drama into a pop culture event, and comedies lodging themselves permanently in the brain. What About Bob?, with Bill Murray at peak controlled chaos, sat right alongside Hot Shots!, proving 1991 could swing from psychological tension to perfectly timed lunacy without breaking stride. The draft unfolds across six categories, including comedy, blockbuster, big budget, and drama, forcing tough calls right out of the gate. Do you lock in T2 or Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves for sheer scale, grab Boyz n the Hood or Thelma & Louise for dramatic weight, or roll the dice on something like Point Break, where surf culture, skydiving, and philosophy collide? Strategy matters, nostalgia runs hot, and no one leaves without defending at least one hill they're willing to die on. By the end, we'll have three very different blueprints of 1991, built from quotable lines, seismic action, and films that still feel permanently etched into moviegoing memory Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408 Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ Contact Us: Website: https://totally80s90srecall.podbean.com/ Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall Voicemail #: (509) 426-4542

Last year, Leonard and Jessie got a rare opportunity to interview Frank Oz at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas before a live audience. His alter egos are world-renowned, but Leonard and Jessie didn't focus on Miss Piggy or Yoda in this conversation. The main topic was directing movies, which Oz has done so well for so many years: The Muppets Take Manhattan, Little Shop of Horrors, In & Out, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Bowfinger, and What About Bob? are just a few of his credits. What is the through-line, if any, from puppetry to filmmaking. Listen and hear what the amazing Oz has to say.
00:00:00 --> 00:10:00 – The hosts reminisce about the show's evolution, from early image feeds to livestreams and changing co-hosts. Mike shares updates about working as a sound engineer for his wife's band and reflects on the challenges of music production. The show dives into Alex Jones clips, including bizarre rants and confusion between Jeff Goldblum and “Jeff Goldberg.” 00:10:00 --> 00:20:00 – More absurd Alex Jones quotes are played and analyzed, filled with shirtless rants and chaotic statements. The team introduces headlines, focusing on a new alien abduction thriller called Watch the Skies, and discuss its AI-generated dubbing and visual effects. 00:20:00 --> 00:30:00 – They continue analyzing Watch the Skies and its use of AI for dubbing and mouth animation. The discussion leads into re-edited trailers that change film genres (What About Bob, The Shining). Paranormal news headlines are teased, including a man arrested for collecting periodic table elements and Argentina releasing secret Nazi documents. 00:30:00 --> 00:40:00 – Focus shifts to a viral story about a Chinese woman living in a workplace toilet to save on rent. The hosts review images and videos of her setup and speculate about her living conditions. Mike plays a satirical rock ballad he wrote called “Living in a Chinese Toilet.” 00:40:00 --> 00:50:00 – The conversation returns to the Nazi documents released by Argentina. They discuss the possibility of Hitler having escaped to Argentina and its potential historical implications. Theories about U.S. intelligence knowing but covering it up are explored, along with links to post-war intelligence programs and Antarctica. 00:50:00 --> 01:00:00 – They explore absurd ideas about Hitler in retirement mode, drinking pina coladas in beachwear. Then a shift to food trends: the team mocks the marketing of protein-added foods like coffee and chips. They introduce the legend of “Little Foot,” a small Bigfoot-like creature spotted in Pennsylvania. 01:00:00 --> 01:10:00 – The legend of the “Albatwitch” (Little Foot) is explored further, including historical sightings, folklore, and a local festival. Researchers and authors discuss theories ranging from escaped primates to young Bigfoot. Quartz deposits and strange disappearances in the area are also touched on. 01:10:00 --> 01:20:00 – Mike shares a personal family story resembling a missing 411 case, where his grandfather disappeared mysteriously in Pennsylvania. Listeners call in, discussing cryptid sightings and humanoid encounters, including creatures crawling from drains and explosions with no explanation. 01:20:00 --> 01:30:00 – A caller talks about vacationing in Argentina and visiting German-influenced towns possibly tied to post-WWII Nazi escapees. They describe tourist-friendly areas, statues, and being asked for papers in an eerily “authentic” way. The discussion drifts into absurdity about Hitler disguises and statues with rubbed-down anatomy. 01:30:00 --> 01:40:00 – More listener calls cover cryptids possibly being ancient genetic experiments. Topics include dogmen, fallen angels, and Nephilim. There's discussion about a theory where dogmen are creations of hybridization or supernatural tinkering, and how various cryptids may have originated from biblical or mythological events. 01:40:00 --> 01:50:00 – A news story about Florida ranking among the best states to survive an alien invasion is covered and mocked. The group critiques the bizarre criteria used, including caves and healthcare access, and compares state rankings. They explore the absurdity of a website called "Gigacalculator" being the authority on alien readiness. 01:50:00 --> 02:00:00 – Ohio ranks #19 in alien invasion survival, while states like Nevada and Arizona are at the bottom. They joke about calculating alien defense readiness with giggle-based math. Another local story is covered about a Portland man repeatedly finding gallons of urine in his recycling bin. Speculation includes tiger urine sales and the return of the woman living in the toilet exporting her waste.

This week, we're scratching The Itch to catch fire! Taylor Carroll and Arejay Hale of KemikalFire are back for another great, coffee-and-fragrance-fueled time. We discuss transitioning from being exclusively behind the kit in their other bands (Lit and Halestorm, respectively) to acting as co-frontmen, getting more nervous playing in front of 200 people than 20,000, and words of wisdom from Hoobastank. Plus, family cameos, pranks gone wrong, and a brilliant plan involving... What About Bob? We cover so much that we nearly forget to mention their ferocious new single, "The Drop". You're gonna love this one. Enjoy. If you like what you hear, you can hear more of us every Sunday night broadcasting rock to the masses from 6-9pm CST on KCLC-FM.

Apparently we completly forgot to upload this episode!!!! Or just forgot to press SAVE on our podcast site. We are so sorry. Here's a bonus for you! What About Bob from 1991.
His alter egos are world-renowned, but Leonard and Jessie didn't focus on Miss Piggy or Yoda in this conversation, recorded in front of a live audience at Esther's Follies in Austin. The main topic was directing movies, which Oz has done so well for so many years: The Muppets Take Manhattan, Little Shop of Horrors, In & Out, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Bowfinger, and What About Bob? are just a few of his credits. What is the through-line, if any, from puppetry to filmmaking? Listen and hear what the amazing Oz has to say.

Sometimes comedy can be a gateway to deeper emotions. We explore those depths with our guest dad, Leighton Smith, and his selection of Groundhog Day (1993). Bill Murray's quest to be better, is something very relatable. We also watched a Movie You Can't Wait To Show Your Kids in What About Bob? (1991). An early "dive" into mental health and how a different perspective can yield tremendous results.Subscribe, rate, and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film Fathers---------------------------------------------Follow Us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: ourfilmfathers@gmail.com

From representing Yoko Ono to winning class action lawsuits on behalf of actors and musicians, Neville Johnson and his partner Douglas Johnson (no relationship) have built one of the most interesting and successful entertainment law practices in the nation, specializing in representing “talent” as opposed to the business side of the industry. Join Rahul and Ben for a fascinating discussion with Neville and Doug, as they describe how they got their start in this practice, recount some of their most interesting cases, and talk about trends in entertainment law resulting from new technologies.

He has tried over 28 civil jury trials and over 70 civil trials and arbitrations without a jury. He is a member of the invitation-only American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA), and is on the Board of Governors of the Consumer Attorneys of Los Angeles (CAALA since 2005), the Board of Directors of the national organization Public Justice, and on the Board of Governors of the Beverly Hills Bar Association 2013-2015 and 2020-2022 (BHBA).

It's time to understand just what New Hampshire is all about - Cthulhus, insanity and childhood trauma. You'd think New Hampshire would be a sedate episode but this week is filled with crazy people. Some are being controlled by evil forces where the real terror comes from the colour blue (In The Mouth Of Madness), some have been almost driven crazy by the death game that has ensnared another for 26 years (Jumanji) and some are driven to murder by an even crazier person (What About Bob?). Is New Hampshire's motto 'Live Free of Die' actually a threat? Let's get into it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The Hilarious Zak Toscani drops by to watch the black comedy classic, What About Bob? We also spent a lot of time discussing the Invasion of the Body Snatchers as well as few other horror movies.

Just in time for turkey day, in which we have a lot to be thankful for, comes this delightful discussion with plenty of fixins. Fresh from their excellent new podcast, A Tripp Through Comedy, two new guests join me but I've been following them ever since we all met during Triviaspotting. Ross Bratin and Tripp Burton join me to talk all about the filmography of Frank Oz, someone each of us love and grew up with - whether as a Muppet or as a director, his achievements and talent are immeasurable. We start with his very first solo gig as a director, The Muppets Take Manhattan and go all the way up to his last narrative feature, Death at a Funeral. We discover some thematic ties and most importantly, we have lots of laughs due to Oz's incredible skills as a comedic filmmaker. In other words, mostly (but not entirely) a love fest for someone that we hope gets together again to make another film in the future. But if not, we're glad he accomplished so much throughout his career. Thank you so much to Tripp & Ross and to you for listening! 00:00 - 36:29 - Intro / Get To Know Ross + Tripp 36:30 - 01:21:27 - The Muppets Take Manhattan, Little Shop Of Horrors, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels 01:21:28 - 01:48:47 - What About Bob?, Housesitter, The Indian in the Cupboard 01:48:48 - 02:27:15 - In & Out, Bowfinger, The Score 02:27:16 - 02:56:43 - The Stepford Wives, Death at A Funeral 02:56:44 - 03:07:30 - Top 3 Frank Oz Films / Outro Follow Ross: https://letterboxd.com/rbratin https://twitter.com/rbratin Follow Tripp: https://letterboxd.com/enb3 https://twitter.com/TrippBurton13 A Tripp Through Comedy: https://twitter.com/attcpod Jim Is Here: https://linktr.ee/jimlaczkowski https://5years.substack.com

This week I'm continuing my series with Dr. Joel Minden, and we discussed a fun and interesting topic: psychotherapists in popular media, including film, TV, and comic strips. We explored what these depictions get right, the challenges of presenting therapy accurately, and why therapists so often are portrayed as buffoons. Specific topics we touched on included: Common therapist tropes in movies and TV shows The movie Mumford Richard Dreyfuss as Leo Marvin in the 1991 film What About Bob? The accelerated pace of change in dramatized versions of therapy Therapists pushing their patients to “go deeper” and explore painful parts of their lives The TV show Shrinking The “psychiatrist” Lucy Van Pelt in the Peanuts comic strip Robin Williams's portrayal of therapist Sean Maguire in Good Will Hunting Steve Carrell as therapist Alan Strauss in The Patient Jennifer Melfi (played by Lorraine Bracco) on The Sopranos Gabriel Byrne as therapist Paul Weston on In Treatment The iconic tissue pass in therapy The potentially big impact of small interventions in therapy, and in life Harry Stack Sullivan's Interpersonal Theory and Psychotherapy (affiliate link) The movie Suture and psychogenic amnesia Larry David's therapist on Curb Your Enthusiasm The power dynamics of chairs in therapy office Joel Minden, PhD, is a clinical psychologist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety and related disorders.

I wasn't feeling so hot yesterday so took a time-out day and watched "Shrinking", the Apple TV series that has a superb cast and follows the lives of three therapists and their friends and families. It's full of expletives, especially the f bomb. Which is fine by me but there's wasn't one person in the cast who didn't explore its complete usage… It's also very moving. And I was relieved to see that except for some entertaining but weirdly unethical behavior, the therapists are painted as caring and trying hard to help. But also having HUGE struggles in their own lives. I get it. There have been times when my struggles have been larger than others. And yet it's still my job to be there for my clients – the way they've come to expect me being there. Because I'm a shrink.

Episode Transcript 350 SelfWork: Being A Shrink and What You Can Expect from Yours I wasn't feeling so hot yesterday so too a time-out day and watched “Shrinking” the Apple TV series that has a superb cast and follow the lives of three therapists and their friends and families. It's full of expletives, especially the f bomb. Which is fine by me but there's wasn't one person in the cast who didn't explore its complete usage… It's also very moving. And I was relieved to see that except for some entertaining but weirdly unethical behavior, the therapists are painted as caring and trying hard to help. But also having HUGE struggles in their own lives. I get it. There have been times when my struggles have been larger than others. And yet it's still my job to be there for my clients – the way they've come to expect me being there. Because I'm a shrink. So, I thought today we could talk about what those expectations – at least the basic ones – are. There are skads of different approaches and schools – that we'll leave for another episode. But I'm talking basic stuff here – the stuff that both behind the scenes and front and center – can be the building blocks of trust and safety in therapy. I'd already published an episode on creating emotional safety in therapy. That'll be in your show notes. Today, we're focusing on basics. The listener email today is from a listener in Bermuda who's tried several therapists but not found one that has helped her – what she calls “manage' her depression as its recurrent. And do I know any international treatment options? ‘I'll do my best to answer her – have done several episodes on emotional regulation or managing emotions so I'd start by having her search for managing depression or managing emotions on my website at drmargaretrutherford.com to help locate things I've already mentioned could be helpful. Before we go on, let's hear from BetterHelp – rated the “best” online therapy service… Yesterday I woke up in a bad mood. I'm usually quite cheerful in the morning, a trait others might love or might need me to tone down a bit, depending on their own morning ritual. But yesterday, several things cropped up. We'd eaten at a place that we hadn't been to in a long time for dinner the night before. And my stomach didn't particularly care for what it had been offered. And my gut is usually like iron, so I haven't built many skills for handling that discomfort. And I was tired. I'd been going pretty strong for several weeks with no break - and like every other time I do that, the same thing happens. Overwork and overbusy brings bad mood - a little feeling of self-pity or entitlement that I can act less nicely to my spouse - just because I'm in a bad mood. That choice only makes my mood worse however, because I know what I'm doing - giving myself permission to be a jerk - when the little part of me that's watching what's going on is saying, "What in the hell are you doing and why did you talk to him like that?' But I rode in sullen silence to our usual Saturday breakfast diner. (which might've been a relief for said spouse...). And when we got there, they'd put in new lighting that was flickering every few seconds, a glitch that needed fixing. As I was already feeling kinda yuck, then I felt like I might be thrown back into vertigo which I'd experienced for the first and hopefully last time a few months back. So, I was staring down at the table, trying to decide what I could eat, trying to be nice to the waitress, when my husband made me laugh, making fun of the plethora of physical complaints expressed by the two of us since rising. Thank God for laughter. It didn't help my stomach - but my bad mood lifted almost instantly. Not that that happens every time. Sometimes, like everyone else, I can hold onto worry or feeling sorry for myself - whatever's constituting my "mood..." until... I get to the office. And I become your therapist. My mood needs to change - and it's my job to know how to do that. To get out of my head as much as possible - and tune into you. Not that where I am isn't going to affect that. But I need to try as much as possible to take my little bruised ego and put it on the shelf (fancy word here.. compartmentalized) until I have the time and space to look at what might be causing it. And that time is AFTER I've seen you. Interestingly, what I've noticed is that when this happens, or when I'm actually sad about something in my life, I focus differently. Maybe better in some way, because I'm coming from a quieter place? That's at least what I've thought. So when I also finished watching the first season of "Shrinking" yesterday, I had to stop and consider - once again - how others may see their therapists, what they expect on both an intangible but also a very tangible, pragmatic level. The series is filled to the brim with f... this and f... that and there's a lot of sex being had, drugs being taken, and sarcasm being passed out. But all in all, at least the therapists are portrayed as really caring and wanting to help, although ethical boundaries are entertainingly (but not realistically) loose. Not since 1991's "What About Bob" - which if you haven't seen it and you're in therapy, you definitely should see - has there been more dual or triple relationships between therapist and patient. But back to how you see your therapist... I was always curious about mine. I was relieved when one very helpful but more soft-spoken therapist told me she'd thrown a plate at her husband when she got mad one time - after the hundredth time of me shaming myself in her office for the way I'd acted when angry. It's not that my choices didn't need to change. But her joining me in living with regret was helpful. Now, we're going to turn to talking about these basic intangibles and tangibles in the therapeutic process. I do want to announce this – I took a lot of this from my very first SelfWork episode! The one I created “in class” – I was so very nervous… So I used the ebook I'd created for subscribers to my website as my “structure.” It was funny – when I pulled out that book today to see if I could use any of the material, I realized that most of it is still very good. And hits the basics. What I need to add to that today is so much more about online therapy and changes in HIPAA due to that. Also, the rise of life coaches – a career that's been around quite a while but within the last five or more years, has exponentially grown. And even more techniques to choose from – which is wonderful but also confusing. So let's first talk about the intangibles.. there are seven of them. Have a strong therapeutic alliance: feel that the two of you are working together well. What does this mean? One my FB group members commented – when I told them I was writing this post and what might they want to add… said the “power differential” was difficult for her. Meaning that her life was the focus of the relationship as well as her vulnerability being exposed… and that was one of the most difficult things for her. To me, this may mean the therapeutic alliance isn't strong enough. She may want a more collaborative kind of therapy – one where there's a little more ease – even though again, the work is hers to do. But you want to feel as if your therapist understands you – and is working toward helping you in the way you understand and want. Know how you're moving toward positive change; be able to say how you're getting better in a tangible way. This may be harder with some approaches than others – and honestly, probably reflects my own bias toward a more collaborative approach. So, I'm admitting my bias. I think it fits our lives today – and with both of you knowing what you're aiming for, the changes that when they happen, you'll both be able to know you've done “the work” – that's vital to me. That doesn't need to mean the change itself isn't in the emotional or mental realm. But knowing you got there – and how you got there – is important. Have a therapist that is attentive in session. Believe it or not, I have heard stories of therapists going to sleep. Or forgetting major things that you've told them. This is a pragmatic thing but it has huge relational components. If you feel I am really listening to you, really seeing you, and helping you see yourself – then trust is built. I have a fairly new patient right now – a fairly young guy – who says he loves therapy because of this very thing. His family situation was tough in some ways – and being seen means the world to him. Believe your therapist knows what they're doing. And you know their basic treatment strategy. What do I mean by this? Well, let's say for the first four to six sessions, I tell you we're going to start connecting your past with your present because, after hearing you tell your story in the first session, I think there would be some helpful connections to make – due to how you're reacting to the present. Maybe things are making you so sad you can't stand it. Or way too mad. Maybe if you understand how you're getting triggered, then you can have more control over those emotions. And you agree to that. But in the third session, I say, “I think we need to start couples work.” That's never been mentioned – I just decide. You can see how that can be unsettling – now if I have a really good reason to change course, okay. Let's talk about it. But out of the blue? Not helpful. Expect reasonable business practices. Okay… the fact is that what can make someone a good therapist may not be what helps them be a good business person. But if not, that's not your responsibility. You need to understand the business aspect of your relationship and that needs to be solid and secure. We'll talk more about that. 6 and 7. I realize six and seven are very integrated – they're about the therapist gaining your trust with your information – not only written information, but you knowing and trusting that confidentiality is being highly respected. And that their business is operating in a way that their staff only has limited access to your information. And also vital – that personal physical and sexual boundaries are being respected as well. There is absolutely no reason why a therapist should engage in any kind of physical touching without your express consent or your request for it. Obviously if my patient suggested something sexual, then I'd need to establish a boundary there and that would become a therapeutic focus. So those are the intangibles. What are the pragmatics? We'll hear those right after this message from AG1. So, here's the quick and dirty list of what you can and should expect pragmatically from a therapist. You should sign a well-written statement concerning your consent to treatment and a confidentiality agreement. That agreement should include information on what the therapist charges and what occurs if you miss an appointment without calling within an appropriate amount of time. HIPAA documents should be made available to you. Or a form that states you have seen the document. Online therapy has its own HIPAA requiremends and you can ask questions about how confidentiality is being kept when and if online therapy is occurring. You should know about how insurance or payment is being handled. Many therapists do not file insurance at all. Some do. You should know whether or not your insurance is through "managed care" or not. That means whether or not your therapist is free to make all clinical judgements or whether your treatment might be modified by your insurance company. This information is available through your insurance company. There is huge variety about the way therapists deal with financial matters. Some will reduce their fee. Some will not. You can ask questions about these topics as you are contacting mental health professionals as a potential therapist or certainly in an initial session. Also, bills should come regularly and as stated initially and costs should not change unless you're notified well ahead of time. Confidentiality in the case of treatment of children, adolescents and in marital work should be outlined. The boundaries of that confidentiality should be understood by all. Your therapist should be very clear with you about whether or not they provide emergency or after hours coverage. You need to know that going into the relationship. You and your provider need to have a plan on what you should do in case of emergency. There are several different mental health degrees that allow people to practice as "therapists." The training is very different between them. Psychiatrists are medical doctors. They prescribe and sometimes offer therapy. The rest are psychologists, social workers, licensed professional counselors, marriage and family therapists. Perhaps even other designations. When choosing to educate yourself about the training in the different professions so that you can choose well for your particular condition. Feel free to ask how much experience he or she has in working with patients with your particular issue. Ask what specific techniques they will use to help you get better! The profession of life coaching has greatly increased. But it should be made clear that a life coach is not a licensed mental health professional. It's my understanding that there are certifications you can obtain by going through courses offered by life coaching platforms. But please realize the two professions are very different. That doesn't mean better or less than. It means different. I've referred a few patients to qualified life coaches I know and it can be very helpful – as they help the patient deal more with pragmatic things. If you do not feel you are improving, look elsewhere! Ask a medical doctor for other referrals. Frequently, family physicians, pastors or gynecologists have a referral list of mental health professionals. Remember, the "fit" is extremely important! Listener email Hello and good afternoon ,Dr Rutherford, Hope you are well. I am a huge fan of your podcast and listen to it regularly on my walks! I have gained a lot from it, but was also interested in one to one therapy! I am based in Bermuda, and understand from your website that you wouldn't be able to help with potential clients outside of Arkansas; I just wanted to get in touch to ask if there is anyone globally that you would recommend that can provide therapy remotely? I have tried various therapists all over the world and none have seemed to work for me. I have suffered from recurring depression since a young age, but instead of accepting that and living with it, I would love to finally learn how to manage it. I am very grateful for any guidance or recommendation you are able to share. Kind regards, My response: Hello and thank you for being a listener. I wish I could help with the one-on-one part of what you're seeking. Maybe a way I can help is to write a podcast episode about what “managing” depression actually means. I'd like to research that a bit myself because I can certainly think of clients of mine who do just that. But I'm sure you're not the only person who doesn't exactly know what that might look like. To me, it means asking yourself what's happening or what are you doing or experiencing when you don't feel depressed - and try to add those kinds of things more into your life. And then when you do feel more depressed, what do you do when you're in it? I hope that perhaps that might help. I'll write myself a note so I don't forget! Basically, managing depression – especially recurrent depression – is managing triggers. Knowing what may cause a “flare-up” of emotions that can easily cycle into depression – and either avoiding those triggers if you can – or at the least, being aware of what they are. The most obvious example I can think of right now -.. let's say a wife had an affair or several on business trips out of town. So they work really hard together and things are going well. Then the wife goes out of town without there being any safety or trust plan. Guess what? Something happens and al hell breaks loose. Trust is lost again – perhaps not due to any distrustful behavior, but because the couple hadn't planned on how to stay in touch in order to AVOID a problem. I call that walking into a mine field, knowing it's a mine field, but thinking you can do that unscathed. Being aware – even listing – what is likely to trigger me? Very helpful.
