#16: Bugs

This week, Lisa and Aimee are anxious about bugs. Anxious when they see them, anxious when they think they see them, and anxious just thinking about them.  They are joined by Stephen Kimmey, who has been in the pest control business for 13 years. He gamely answers every question you’ve ever wanted to ask an exterminator, and helps Lisa and Aimee take control of their fear of bugs (or at least not let it control them).  Like the show?

Aimee and Lisa are anxious: about germs, about mortality, about the state of the world (and things far less serious, too). Each week they grapple with one of their anxieties, from the trivial to the existential, in a humorous and heartfelt way. They're helped along by smart and entertaining guests like Simon Doonan and Anne Roiphe, who offer advice—and some homework!—for our hosts to overcome their various anxieties.
