Listen "Allison Raskin"
Episode Synopsis
Allison Raskin is a writer, director, comedian, YouTuber, podcaster, and mental health advocate — she’s perhaps best known for her collaborations with Gabe Dunn, which began with their YouTube channel, “Just Between Us,” and has included co-writing a New York Times best-selling novel, “I Hate Everyone But You,” and developing TV series with MTV, FX, YouTube Red and Netflix. Raskin sat down with me to talk about her early career with BuzzFeed Video, her work alongside Dunn, going back to school to get a master’s degree in psychology, her new book, “Overthinking About You: Navigating Romantic Relationships When You Have Anxiety, OCD, and/or Depression,” and how she navigates her own mental health as a content creator of videos, podcasts, books and essays.
