Loved being a guest on this podcast to talk about abortion and pop culture, love the commitment of Heather and Sarah to navigating these complex conversations even more. They bring a love for film and tv with a delightfully nerdy curiosity and compassion for the issues that hit so close to home for so many of us. Very grateful for the attention and care they show their subjects, and excited to keep listening!

Informative episode on the reality of living with Tourette Syndrome. The guest emphasized that it’s better to allow the tick that wants to come out rather than trying to control it.

Sarah and Heather make learning about the brain so interesting and fun. I really enjoyed the episode on The Last of Us.

At all. But this podcast teaches me so many things and about topics I never even thought to be interested in, but frames it through television that I love so I’m excited to learn.

What a great twist on the movie and TV podcast concept, and how films can impact on our precious dark grey matter and our overall wellbeing by extension. Great job!

It’s about time someone took on the way mental health is portrayed in the media! This podcast is a breath of fresh air!

Heather and Sarah do a great job of delving into portrayals of mental health in the media. Their show covers a wide range of mental health conditions and is thought-provoking but easy to follow. I also appreciate their commitment to representation and to discussing stigma related to mental health.

Speaking as a past (and, one hopes, given this starry review, future) guest, I cannot recommend BRAAAINS enough. The sisters Taylor have created an informed, inclusive space for the destigmatization and normalization of the health issues we all deal with but find hard to discuss.

- The Devil’s Podcaster

The Braaains Podcast is a brilliant take on how mental illness is portrayed in media - I’ve learned so much from listening to Sarah and Heather’s guest interviews. What an incredible way to more deeply understand ourselves and those in our communities who may be facing challenges to be heard and understood.

This podcast is a great blend of informative and entertaining. The guests bring lived experience, and then relating things to mainstream media and popular culture is a smart way to explore representation. Heather and Sarah are excellent hosts and bring interesting discussions out of their guests.
