Description

Hey folks, before we dive into episode 250 (250!?), please read the title of the episode. With that information fresh in your mind, you need to decide if this is a topic that will trigger you or send you into a blind rage in the comments. If the answer is 'yes', then maybe sit this one out. If the answer is 'no', then enjoy the episode. 

You’re sitting alone, and suddenly a voice cuts through the silence. It knows your deepest fears, your hidden shame, and it won’t shut up. It’s not a friend, not your conscience—it’s something else, taunting you, day after day. For millions of people with schizophrenia, this isn’t a thought experiment—it’s their reality. But here’s the kicker: what if those voices aren’t just a glitch in the brain? What if they’re something… more?

Thanks for 250 weeks of weird. We'll see you on the inside..
