Description

It’s time for splotchy redness and the questionable misplacement of enema bags, as we cover “Ill” this week on Morgendorks! When Daria’s stricken with a bizarre rash, she ends up in the hospital—while Jane tries (and kinda fails) to cover for her. What’s behind the rash? How were that many women in one bathroom stall? What happened to poor Mrs. Sullivan? We don’t have all the answers, or even many, but we’ll give it a go anyway.

Also, for our cultural context we take a dive into the epidemic of teenage anxiety. It’s way, way more prevalent than you might think, and it’s almost certainly an older problem than you might realize.

Also also! We answer a question from one of our fantastic Patrons! And talk about some really fantastic Daria-related news that you’ve probably seen this past week!
