The Rage Pod

<p>We all have rage, and if you don’t think you have it, don’t worry we’ll help you find it. And once you find it, we’ll also help you deal with it. This podcast is the intersection of all the life things (family, love, politics, sports, driving, loud chewing) and rage. Hosted by comedians Tara Erickson and Ebar, they talk to guests (ranging from neuroscientists to divorce experts to athletes to a neighbor) about how rage factors into their various areas of expertise. When they’re not doing that, they’re listening to calls from the rage hotline, screaming into a pillow or checking in with the show’s producer Friendy Wende who’s likely telling them to move on.</p>

Sex, Lies & Lily Allen

In this sexy episode, TRP gets into the thick of Lily Allen’s new album, an anti-love letter to David Harbour. We too want to know who the f*ck is Madeline. We also want to know how busy or not people are in a threesome. And we dig into how much sex people are having - no wrong answer. Like we said up top, it's a sexy episode.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Smash, Scream, Repeat: Moving Rage Out of Our Bodies

We’re back with neuroscientist Dr. Nicole Tetreault, who explains how to literally get rage out of your body without losing your mind. Everyone’s anger looks different and so does everyone’s release.

Girls Just Wanna Have a Rage Release

We talk to founder of RAGEher, Krissie McMenamin, about her movement/embodiment experience (think a girls night out at the club but as a rage release therapy session).

Female Rage Continues

So much female rage that we had to split it into two episodes. Check out the second half of our interview with psychotherapist and best selling author Jennifer Cox ("Women Are Angry") as we discuss how "it all starts in childhood," that some of us need to call our moms c***s and why women get a greenlight to throw a tantrum. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Group Planning Rage

Just know if you're going to do anything in a group (vacations, dinners, projects), people are going to get irritable. Even if it's a success! That's just part of it. Nothing provokes rage faster than planning a group event with friends or family. Whether it's fly fishing on the coast or vacationing in an Italian villa, the following will emerge: the non-responder, the bossy decider, the one who wants to split the bill ten ways, and the one who always shows up unprepared (we're looking at you, Ebar).   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Divorce Rage

Sometimes you gotta get that D. Marriages and unions don't always work out and you need to get a divorce. In this week's episode, Ebar and Tara talk to Alex Beattie, a divorce prep coach and founder of The Divorce Planner, who has helped thousands of people prepare in advance of divorce so they save time and money and walk away with confidence instead of rage. Also Ebar and Tara get a divorce and it involves Victor Hugo.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Male Loneliness (Non) Epidemic

Why should we care about male loneliness? Because spoiler alert: it's not just a "him" problem. Loneliness doesn't care about your gender. Just like rage, it comes for all of us. In this episode, we seek a path toward herd immunity for the so-called "male loneliness epidemic" and gently (ok, not so gently) encourage men of a certain age to F.I.T.F.O. (Figure It The F*ck Out!)   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
