Hyperfixation - Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared: Traumatizing a Generation

Ep. 33 - What do you get when you mix puppets, catchy songs, body horror, and an alarming amount of psychological trauma? Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared, of course. This week, Danny introduces Erin to one of YouTube's most iconic and unsettling web series. Together they unravel the strange world of Red Guy, Yellow Guy, Duck, and the ever-growing list of questionable teachers who somehow make learning feel terrifying. Expect discussions about symbolism, fan theories, internet culture, and why so many people willingly revisit something that traumatized them in 2011. **FOLLOW US!
