374: Taking Kids Out

[Pinkfreud]

I was just catching up on old episodes I missed and just listened to this one. I don't know if it's been covered already but the shaking Michael J. Fox shows in the commercial is actually a side effect from the medication he's on. Often, Parkinson's patients react like that to it. The jerky movement displayed is different from the Parkinson's tremors he'd be doing if he hadn't taken the medication for the commercial.

Oh, I don't have it. I've just read up on it a lot because my grandpa has it. I thought the ad was effective as fuck anyway.

Thanks! I've been listening for a while but my shitty college internet prevents me from getting on the chats or streaming the live show.
