It's the first week of January and we're kicking off another episode of Topicocalypse. We're back, it's 2018, we've made resolutions, broken them, fallen off the deep end and climbed our way back to recovery so we could record a brand new podcast for all of you. Danial is kicking us off with another music-based topic. He asks us what we do when the musicians and artists we turn to for inspiration and to feel better about our problems are mentally and emotionally unstable, citing specifically the tragic loss of Chris Cornell, Chester Bengington and Layne Staley. This gets us into a topic about suicde, anxiety, and depresison and how we handle these things. Josh brings up Ned Vizzini, the late author of the bestselling young adult novel, "It's Kind of a Funny Story," and we're joined by James Benjamin who brings up some great points about society's ability to sympathize and empathize with what other people are going through.
