In this episode, Steve interviews journalist, author, and podcaster Jesse Singal to discuss, among other things, "fad psychology," and the potential benefits of gorilla poses.

But first, Steve reveals the origins of the term "self-help" and the disturbing true story behind the book "Who Moved My Cheese?" Next, Scott gets into the surprisingly "revolutionary" origins of the "self-care" movement and the current state of "self-care" in the New Slang segment.

You can listen to Jesse and his co-host Katie Herzog weekly on the "Blocked and Reported" podcast at your preferred podcast provider.

Jesse's new book "The Quick Fix: Why Fad Psychology Can't Cure Our Social Ills" is available now wherever books are sold.
