Episode notes

There is no strong scientific support for this primal scream therapy approach tomental health. Most psychologists say it's as good a release as exercise or just laughing. The real work is actually just untangling whatever clot of drama you have that's bottling up all your feelings in the first place. But during final ohave therapy dogs on campus, and hearing that was the most comfort i have felt for the youth in quite sometime.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for… a brand new, screaming hot episode of Ologies. Be warned *slaps the top of this ep* you can fit so many screams in this bad boy. (Seriously though, there’s a lot of screaming in this episode, it’s probably not the one to gently fall asleep to.) What kinds of screams you ask? We got birds, foxes, caterpillars, movie stars, children, James Bond? YES. What is a scream? Is it the same as yelling? How far can you hear a scream? Why do we scream at concerts? What’s up with primal scream therapy? Join us as we hoot and holler with internationally acclaimed Emory professor of psychology Dr. Harold Gouzoules for the answers to these and so many more of your questions as we learn about the study of that most animal of vocalizations: screaming.
