In this episode, we’re not 2 Distractible Doctors — we’re three (because clearly one more doctor makes us more focused, right?). Dr. Christie Pickel, Dr. Sita-Marie Pillay, and our honorary third wheel, Dr. Francisco Rojas, geek out about heroes and villains in comic books and fandoms, straight from our WonderCon 2025 panel.
We break down how iconic comic book mentors mirror real-life therapist vibes (yes, your therapist might secretly be your Gandalf), what villains teach us about our darker bits, and how fandoms help us find belonging when real life feels like a chaotic multiverse.
Expect tangents, questionable analogies, and enough nerdy therapy talk to make your inner Batman weep happy tears.
