Building Better Boundaries and Managing Fears of Spontaneous Human Combustion with Jenny Lawson

Saison 6 · Épisode 3

mercredi 7 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:12:21

The acclaimed and very funny author Jenny Lawson is doing much better in 2026 than she was in our first interview in 2017. Back then, she wondered if she should be talking at all because her depression and anxiety were spiking, but she went ahead with it, offering an honest look at life inside the mind of someone in a deep struggle with their mental health. Because it’s Jenny Lawson, number one NYT best-selling author, that struggle is legit hilarious, tremendously moving, and actually heart-breaking. We hear from both current Jenny and past Jenny in this episode. She says she’s learned a lot about saying no to things when they could maybe benefit others but definitely harm her in the process. So often, life with a chronic mental health condition isn’t about getting rid of it, that’s not always an option, but it is about learning to manage it and manage yourself so a better life - and one with a lot of earned wisdom - is possible.

Oh! And! Please take TWO DANG MINUTES of your time to fill out our listener survey. It’s part of making the new version of The Hilarious World of Depression the best and most useful show we can make.

Wil Wheaton in 2026 is Wiser and Healthier Than in 2017. And He Doesn’t Talk to His Parents

Épisode 3

lundi 14 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:16:07

Actor, podcaster, and all-around nerd superhero Wil Wheaton has achieved something he never could reach throughout his storied career: peace and understanding. He has a grip on complex post-traumatic stress disorder, understands the effects of abuse he had received from his parents as a child star, and has cut them out of his life. That wasn’t the case when he first joined our show in 2017 and we hear that interview as well. He talks about loving acting but hating the professional experience of being an actor at a very early age, especially because it robbed him of a childhood. He was also miserable from the constant rejection of the industry. Today, in 2026, we make some connections between the pain he was in back then and the better life he has today. We explore how he looked to Hollywood for the comfort and support he never received and how, aside from a Star Trek cast full of truly wonderful friends, the industry couldn’t provide it. Wil has cut off contact from his mom and dad. And that’s worked out really well.

Introducing Depresh Mode with John Moe: Joel Kim Booster Is In A Pit

mercredi 4 août 2021 • Durée 51:41

It's tempting to try to look for a reason why Joel Kim Booster, ordinarily a very funny and engaging person, feels dead inside, trapped in a persistent depressive state. His father recently died of COVID. The two hadn't been very close (Joel's dad was a conservative Christian, Joel is a gay Hollywood star) but were beginning to reconnect. You could point to the pandemic, which left Joel in an apartment he doesn't like for extended periods.

But it's just as easy to point to things that aren't especially depressing about Joel's situation. He's got movie and TV deals, he's taping an hour-long Netflix special, he has recently fallen in love, and he's doing well enough that he's about to buy a house.

The truth is that any of those factors might influence Joel's mood and behavior but depression isn't simple enough to be routinely caused or prevented by one's fortune in the rest of life.

Depresh Mode host John Moe says this interview is the strongest representation of what depression is like that he's done in all his years of interviewing people on the subject.

Movies That Get Depression Right

lundi 25 mai 2020 • Durée 45:18

It’s easy for movies to get depression wrong, portraying a clinical disorder as equivalent to just being bummed out and, in the case of romantic comedies, curable with a magical kiss. People with actual depression know better and appreciate films that show the truth. In this episode, our listeners, the beloved THWoD-balls, give their picks, ranging from sci-fi to historical drama to comedy. We got moon men, bridesmaids, a couple of hobbits, and even a Babadook. Fill out your watch list!

Steven Page Camouflages Songs About Depression

lundi 18 mai 2020 • Durée 45:28

As co-founder and co-frontman for the band Barenaked Ladies, Steven Page belted out a lot of up-tempo pop hits. But if you look at the lyrics to songs like "One Week" or "Pinch Me," you can see a lot of darkness and that's an approach that has continued with his solo work. We hear about his bipolar diagnosis, his drug arrest, and his penchant for creating multi-layered music.

Mike Birbiglia Faces His Darkest Fears and Puts Them On Stage

lundi 11 mai 2020 • Durée 41:02

Monologist and comedian Mike Birbiglia has always had a mile-long dark streak. Even if he’s never been diagnosed with clinical depression, he’s recognized his own lack of capacity to feel joy and is constantly aware of a kind of existential dread that haunts him. But rather than shy away from all that, he picks at it. Mike fills us in on how he deals with that darkness and the inner meaning of a lot of his work.
