I Got A Sticker- What Now?

So you have a sticker that says Badinia.com, and it led you here. Maybe you found it at a bus stop. Maybe it was slipped between the pages of a poorly-reviewed sexy vampire book. Maybe you went to a comedy show and a slightly unhinged person forced it into your hands, and you took it because it was shiny. What happens now?

This is your introduction to the world of comedian Virginia Jones. Welcome. You can do anything here- or rather, anything she wants you to do. You can look at a map of everywhere she’s ever performed comedy. You can listen to her album, Gothic American. You can see where she’s playing next.

Virginia Jones Sketchfest Promo Photo 2024

Looking for a preview of the shows Virginia Jones is appearing at during 2024’s San Francisco Sketchfest?

Me and my kicky attitude are excited to return this year, to do comedy and see comedy and try to meet more famous people, and to avoid meeting less famous people!

I’m kicking off the weekend at Comedy Oakland, run by the amazing Samson Koletkar!

My first Sketchfest show is on Saturday, Feb 3rd at 9:45 at the small room at the Brava Theatre. I get to co-host glorious Dalia Malek‘s Interruption Show, where comics are asked prying questions about their little stories and make-em-ups. I love that I’m sharing the stage with the hilarious Becky Braunstein, who’s also one of the smarter people you’ve ever met. It’s a live show that is also a podcast that is also a happening. This thing sold out last year, and this year’s tickets can be had here!

I’m on one of the last shows closing the festival, a Taste Of Sketchfest collection of sketch groups. I’m looking forward to this one myself, I don’t always get to see a ton of sketch comedy. It’s a pleasure to host some of the best! Tickets can be had here!

HITCH-HIKER’S DORKDOM

Virginia Jones’ dorkdom is all things Hitch-hiker’s Guide and Douglas Adams, and we weed off to Jane Austen and Interactive Fiction Games. This is super fun.

Irresponsible Diagnoses

Review of My Sister’s A Therapist episode: Irresponsible Diagnoses 1

In the episode “Irresponsible Diagnoses,” Virginia and Laura tackle the topic of diagnosing fictional characters.

Virginia provides her theories on the likely psychiatric diagnoses of characters from popular TV shows and movies, such as Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Trading Places, and The Good Place. Laura then reviews Virginia’s theories based on the DSM-V.

The episode is both informative and entertaining. Virginia’s theories are often humorous and thought-provoking, and Laura’s explanations of the DSM-V are clear and concise. The sisters also do a great job of discussing the ethical implications of diagnosing fictional characters.

One of the things I appreciate most about this podcast is that it’s hosted by a licensed therapist and a comedian who are real sisters. This gives the podcast a unique perspective on mental health, and it makes the conversations feel authentic and relatable.

Overall, I highly recommend the episode “Irresponsible Diagnoses” to anyone who is interested in mental health, pop culture, or both. It’s a fun and informative listen, and it’s sure to make you think about the way we diagnose and treat mental illness in the real world.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Recommended for: Fans of mental health podcasts, pop culture podcasts, and anyone who is interested in learning more about the DSM-V.

Irresponsible Diagnoses

For your Halloween podcast, the sisters talk about the psychiatric diagnoses of their favorite fictional characters. Was the Crazy Ex Girlfriend really mentally ill?

For the third episode of the incredible My Sister’s A Therapist podcast, the girls delve into SOULMATES: Why do we believe in them? What’s the harm in believing in them? And why do people’s soulmates switch around so much?

This episode takes on Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Plato’s Symposium, ghosts, and Love is Blind. Also, Virginia and Laura discuss how their parent’s marriage may have been one of the first felled by the Internet.
