Episode 108 - Jon and Steve find out that some blind people have PhDs in psychology

Look, I couldn't help it.

But, a blind character with a PhD in psychology, even if the actor is not blind and it was 50 years ago, means a lot to me.

I will likely talk a lot about the importance of representation in media (As I have noted before, I write these things before we record).

Much of the performance in Part 1 (this was originally a 2 hour episode) by Kathryn Harrlod as Megan is remarkable.  Either she knew a blind person, or there was an actual blind or low vision person helping out/consulting whatever.

The therapy is pretty well done as well (I may not be a clinician, but I know things).

We get a couple of actors we've seen earlier in the series.

A little of Rocky pushing Jim to call Megan.

Parts of this were very difficult for me to watch.  So it was that well done.
