Description

Jess and Megan discuss the latest season of the show True Detective. Full of cold frights, complex characters, and indigenous representation, Episode 4 of the series introduces mental health topics like voluntary placements and cultural views on hallucinations. In this episode we also get into bro complaints, bias within the mental health system, the psychological challenge of living in the dark, and MORE.  Rest assured, no jumpscares to be found here, but there are lots of triggers, twitches, and glimmers!
