Guest Snowflake Keith Rinier (listener, friend and MSW [no, not SJW]) joins with Ari to psychobabble about PTSD in Jeremiah's direction. They opine on complex vs. "garden variety" PTSD, the ingrained dissociative affects of repetitive trauma, the true nature of flashbacks, and what normies like Jeremiah need to know to treat their post-traumatically-stressed loved ones with the care and understanding they so richly deserve. Plus, a dramatic new controversy in the atheist movement: is it ethically acceptable to punch those who enjoy frightening traumatized people?
