Next Episode: 9: The Fairytale of New York Muppets Past Present and Future - With Covert Fade and Alice Cheshire

In this episode, Covert Fade and Alice Cheshire discuss the field of Positive Psychology, the concept of "subjective happiness," and uncover factors that contribute towards a sense of well-being.

They discuss how the Jehovah's Witness religion hijacks some of these factors to make JW's feel content, how leaving the religion might cause us to lose some of these things, and how we can take them back!

And nobody sings. We promise.
