Our hosts dive into how bipolar disorder can wreck friendships and romantic relationships, and the tools required for both the patient and their spouse to navigate a healthy long-term relationship. Brad takes a knee. Love at first sight. I guess I live here now. Depressive states nearly destroy Brad's marriage. Hypersexuality while manic. That's what sociopaths say. Chemically inducing mania. Hurting and flirting. Hold on, let me get my CPAP. Resentment. Your spouse as a partner in your treatment. Trauma dumping on my female friends. British soccer hooligans. Hug someone you love.

BatShit is a frank, funny, and no holds barred look at living with mental illness. Hosted by actor and comedian Adam Slemon, alongside screenwriter and comic Brad C. Hodson, BatShit covers topics ranging from how mental illness destroys relationships to how it affects creative and artistic works. The two hosts have both been diagnosed as bipolar and bring their unique backgrounds having dealt with this illness to the show with an irreverent, tongue firmly planted in cheek approach. Laughter, as they say, is the best medicine. Well, next to actual medicine. Seriously, take your pills.
