On this episode, Rick overcomes his loneliness and flies solo to tackle the recent Tom Hanks hit movie, A Man Called Otto (2023). This is a heavy movie with therapeutic themes such as grieving the death of a spouse, factors that make grief unique for everyone (including Otto), suicidal ideation, and the importance of loving others through pain and loss. Plus we explore the classic question, “why do we like sad movies so much?”
**disclaimer: this movie features multiple vivid images of suicidal ideation and attempts, and they are discussed in this episode. View and listen at your discretion.**
