Ep 62 Tourette’s Tippler: Baylen Out Loud — Understanding Tourette’s Syndrome in Media & Medicine

This week we’re diving into Baylen Out Loud and unpacking how Tourette’s syndrome is portrayed on screen versus what the medical community understands about the condition. We cover the basics of Tourette’s, including motor and vocal tics, diagnostic criteria, evidence-based treatments like Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), and ongoing research initiatives. We also discuss stigma, misconceptions, and why representation matters. As always, we pair the conversation with a themed cocktail — this week, the “Tourette’s Tippler.” 🍸 Cocktail of the Week: Tourette’s Tippler https://makemeacocktail.com/cocktail/5631/tourettes-tippler 📚 Sources Tourette Association of America – What is Tourette Syndrome? https://tourette.org/about-tourette/overview/what-is-tourette/ Tourette Association of America – Diagnosis https://tourette.org/about-tourette/overview/diagnosis/ Tourette Association of America – Treatment Options https://tourette.org/about-tourette/overview/treatment/ Tourette Association of America – CBIT Overview https://tourette.org/research-medical/cbit-overview/ Tourette Association of America – Brain Bank & Research https://tourette.org/about-tourette/overview/brain-bank-2/ Wikipedia – Tourette Syndrome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourette_syndrome Episodes every Monday ⭐️ Subscribe, Rate and Review! 🍸 Recipes drop on socials Discounts: 15% off Comfrt apparel Purple Carrot: 40% off your first box ClassPass: 2 weeks free 15% off non-alcoholic spirits at The Zero Proof 💳 Support us on Patreon | ☕️ Buy Me a Coffee Contains affiliate links.
