Ep 55: Combatting Winter Grumpiness with Toxic Positivity

from Midday Movies · host Laura Fones and Stephen Frothingham

The winter months are hard on everyone — whether it’s experiencing Seasonal Affective Disorder or having to interact with people experiencing Seasonal Affective Disorder. Laura has had enough of it, and has thoughts to share. Stephen is sympathetic and has Matt Groening (creator of The Simpsons and Futurama) perspectives to impart. We discuss our strategies for dealing with winter grumpiness, within and without. Using verve and a little bit of silliness, we argue in defense of toxic positivity and in support of bringing Californian optimism to the wider world. If you’re having a dark winter, brighten up with us!
