Former porn director Vic Lagina joins me to talk about his book Filthy, a retrospective about his time as a director with Brazzers, the #1 porn website in the world. The industry he helped launch with them, the toll it took on him and the mental health issues he witness while shooting scenes and dealing with the personalities that came (pun intended?) through this misunderstood industry. I also play a clip from Nick Turturro going nuts about Juan Soto which nails home a point I made on the last episode and also give my take on the De'Vondre Campbell/49ers story from last week. Then it's your Mental Health Tip of the Day that brings it all together.

Has identifying with your sports team crossed over into other areas of life? I argue that this identity and trash talking culture of sports has begun to cross over into other areas of culture and is getting worse with potential dire consequences. Then I give my take on the assassination of United Healthcare's CEO this week and how the continued gulf between classes is building rage. This rage might start to break down an imaginary shield that the rich believe they have that protects them from harm. Then it's your Mental Health Tip of the Day about how to handle family that you may not always agree with.

How did this happen? Are people inherently bad? Friend of the show, psychologist Dr. Evan Longin returns to discuss his book The Roots of Evil, what makes someone evil, and how to deal with that in ever day life. We also talk about my long standing theory on people. Whether we are inherently bad by nature and therefore prone to this behavior. The Healthcare Horror Stat of the Week begins what might be the most depressing episode in the history of this podcast and it's brought home with a Mental Health Tip of the Day to try to bring some relief.
