Episode description

Our brains are probably the most complex things in the known universe. These mega organic computers control our bodily functions and also our minds. If we are lucky, our minds remain clear and all is good but sometimes something can go so wrong that we experience terrifying delusions. Both Capgras Syndrome and Cotard’s Syndrome are incredibly rare mental conditions. Sufferers of Capgras think someone close to them has been replaced by a double and those with Cotard’s Syndrome may think that parts of their bodies do not exist or even that that are already dead. These are definitely some weird! Warning: some language or themes may not be suitable for all ages. We are always looking for story ideas.
