Our Editor's Take

The Angry Therapist Podcast is a show for people who want to work on themselves. The host of the podcast is John Kim. He is the author of several books. I Used to Be A Miserable F*ck helps men who want to be more present in their relationships. Single On Purpose outlines his philosophy that whole individuals make better partners. This American Public Media podcast continues the conversation.

A licensed therapist, John is breaking all the rules. Instead of maintaining distance, he isn't afraid of letting his listeners see who he is. In his books and his podcast, he uses his past relationship mistakes as examples of what not to do. He delivers his self-help talks in short spurts. John also has a series of videos on TikTok. Followers can also receive relationship advice by daily text. In short, he is revolutionizing the field of self-help.

Episodes of The Angry Therapist last about 15 minutes. In each one, he broaches topics that matter to people navigating relationships. In "Angry My Ex is Happy," he encourages listeners to consider how they project their insecurities in relationships. Another noteworthy episode is "Do You Still Need Street Level Mindfulness?" In it, John explains what he means by "street level mindfulness" and why it's a valuable tool. Other episodes discuss patterns and cycles people fall into and how to get over a breakup.

There are also interviews on The Angry Therapist. Vanessa Bennett and Dené Logan, hosts of the Cheaper Than Therapy podcast, are regular guests. Humble the Poet and John discover that they have pretty much the same job. John's friend Alana makes a music playlist for him. Former client Joe Akira talks about what makes him thrive.

Listeners may appreciate John's raw honesty and his realness. People who want to make personal growth into a daily practice might enjoy the series. The Angry Therapist Podcast has new episodes several times each week.
