Episode 63 - "The Iron Claw" w/ Dr. Sulman Mirza @thekicksshrink
Welcome back to Analyze Scripts, where a psychiatrist and a therapist analyze what Hollywood gets right and wrong about mental health. Today, we are joined by triple board certified psychiatrist, Dr. Mirza. We collectively cried while watching The Iron Claw over the holidays while it was in theaters. This movie tells the mostly true story of the Von Erich family who rose to fame through their family's wrestling talents. Zac Efron, Jeremy Allen White, Harris Dickinson and Stanley Simons were incredible in their preparation for the role. The history of this family is tragic and we do include a trigger warning for serious mental health themes. Join us to discuss generational trauma, the impact of family pressure, steroid use and celebrate the resiliency of Kevin Von Erich. We hope you enjoy!

Episode 90 - "Not Dead Yet" Autism in Media w/ @differentspectrumspodcast
55:05||Ep. 90Welcome back to Analyze Scripts, where a psychiatrist and a therapist analyze what Hollywood gets right and wrong about mental health. Today, we are excited to cover Not Dead Yet season 1 which premiered on ABC but can also be streamed on Hulu. The best part of this episode is that we are joined by @differentspectrumspodcast Dr. Naz and Spencer! In this episode we analyze the depiction of Autism Spectrum Disorder and focus on Edward played by Rick Glassman, an actor with autism. Autism has notoriously had some pretty poor characterizations in the media so we are thrilled to see autism depicted this way additionally with a person who has lived experience. Edward is an environmental lawyer who lives with Nell, played by Gina Rodriguez, who guess what, sees the ghosts of obituaries she is writing. The characters are fabulous, the conversation with Dr. Naz and Spencer is even better! We can't wait for you to join us!InstagramTikTokWebsiteYoutubeDR.
