Ep. 10: Tics and 'Tisms

Welcome back to Bras Off Confessional.This week started with a toddler, a big Mexican breakfast, and a situation that required immediate intervention. It ended somewhere much more introspective than either of us planned.The topic is tics and phobias — the weird, specific, deeply personal things your brain does that you either never noticed or just assumed everyone else was doing too. Turns out: not everyone blinks in time to their turn signal. Not everyone has a word they have to write in cursive on their leg under the table. Not everyone is one barnacle cluster away from a full breakdown.The phobias are also decidedly unhinged. A listener confession involving a stuffed animal closes it out.In this episode:The tic inventory — including one that involves driving your horse. Why 37 is a truly offensive number What happens when ADD and autism are pulling in opposite directions at the same timeA ranked list of the world's most specific phobias, including one that is deeply cruel to nameLakes, cruise ships, barnacles, banana noise, and used band-aidsSupport the show🎙️ New episodes every Wednesday💌 Join our CommuniTitty on Patreon😏 Submit an anonymous confession📲 Instagram / Tiktok: @brasoffconfessional
