Diagnonsense Ep. 23: Unpacking the Grinch's Psychological Layers

It's hard to tell, because Jim Carrey's face is so expressive, so you can't tell quite what's like makeup and what's just Jim Carrey.
What makes the Grinch tick? In this episode of Diagnonsense, hosts Justin Pendergrass and Kurt Honak take you on a fascinating journey through the mind of everyone's favorite holiday curmudgeon, the Grinch. Forget the usual holiday cheer—this discussion dives deep into the Grinch's ACES score (Adverse Childhood Experiences), his complex relationship with Max the dog, and his penchant for self-sabotage. But that's not all.
You'll also hear about how the film 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' tackles toxic consumerism and the quest for balance during the festive season. And if you're a trivia buff, Justin's got a treasure trove of Grinch-related tidbits to keep you entertained. Plus, don't miss the return of the quirky holiday figure, prescription drug Krampus, adding a unique twist to the conversation.
Whether you're a psychology enthusiast or just curious about what makes the Grinch so grumpy, this episode offers a fresh and insightful perspective on a beloved holiday classic.
