Ep. 80 A Real Life Handmaid's Tale

This week's episode dives deep into the intersections of pop culture, politics, and the hidden truths we don't always want to face. I start by unpacking The Handmaid's Tale and how its dystopian themes mirror today's political climate — especially around power, control, and bodily autonomy. We then explore the complexity of sexuality — how arousal, identity, and even "taboo" conversations around homosexuality can carry layers of shame, home, and desire. I also touch on the eerie story of missing children turned into a movie, blurring the line between reality and entertainment. And of course, no episode would be complete without a reminder that therapists are human too — carrying their own trauma while holding space for others. This one is layered, raw, and meant to spark the conversations that matter most.   SEND A VOICE NOTE INTO THE SHOW: Use your built-in voice memo app or app of preference https://apps.apple.com/us/app/voice-memos/id1069512134 Share your message with us by emailing it to [email protected] That's it!   Episode links: https://www.instagram.com/p/DMx1xrdMcoq/?igsh=MWQ4djNyOGkxMWN3Mg==   https://instagram.com/queenxautumn__?igshid=MmVlMjlkMTBhMg%3D%3D&utm_source=qr @allthingsunhingedpodcast https://instagram.com/allthingsunhinged?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== @kinkandlinkcollection use code POD10 for 10% off Shop my store!  www.kinkandlinkcollection.com  ***DISCLAIMER: The information shared on this podcast is not meant to substitute help from a licensed professional.
