Let's Talk Therapy Edition!
Manage episode 499914321 series 3588334
What happens when you mix therapy, comics, and unapologetically Black geek culture? In this episode of Black Geek Energy, hosts Jardo and D'Marcus are joined by therapist and dance queen Babs for a deep yet hilarious dive into superhero psychology, therapy stigmas in the Black community, and the latest in nerdy media.
We unpack Marvel’s new Fantastic Four movie, critique character development, and explore if the MCU is finally giving Gen Z heroes like Riri the shine they deserve. Babs leads a powerful therapeutic roleplay game where she “treats” heroes like Moon Knight and Zatanna using polyvagal theory and internal family systems—yes, we went there.
Plus, we tackle real talk: why therapy is often overlooked in our community, how to find a Black or culturally competent therapist, and how communication struggles play out even between close friends. We also share must-watch anime, manga picks (Hidden Class Gravity User, anyone?), and throw in some laughs with a rapid-fire game on movie and music preferences.
Whether you're here for superhero hot takes, Black mental health gems, or just looking for a good laugh from two friends and their favorite therapist—this one’s for you.
