This week brings a special episode where Mike speaks with Leyna; she is one of several alters in the Doug Vincent System, to explain the condition of Dissociative Identity Disorder (trigger warning: suicidal thoughts & self-harm are briefly discussed in this conversation).

In more detail, Leyna first explains why she & the Doug Vincent System have gone public to talk about their condition and their connection to the Marvel comic character Moon Knight. Further in the conversation, they discuss the many misconceptions surrounding DID (especially in films), how severe & repeated trauma at a young age can bring on DID, how the alters within a system communicate, how religion helped them through darker times, what the internal & external worlds of someone with DID is, and so much more – this is podcast is one of the most important conversations Mike has ever had on GCC, so make sure you tune in!

Leyna & Mike became connected after she contributed to the “Waxing And Waning” Moon Knight essay collection; edited by Scott Weatherly and Mike & Scott then discussed Moon Knight’s many comics and the essays in episode 224 of GCC (Feb 2024)!

The previous release was another episode of Mike & Megan’s monthly discussions show, with their thoughts on pantomimes. Pantomimes are a traditional British comedy/musical/theatrical performance with several unusual elements to them (which you’ll have to listen to hear about) and Megan also performed in a pantomime in early 2024, so she talks about her first on-stage experience too!
