In this episode, Lisa sits down with Broadway performer and fellow chaos gremlin Chris O’Neill to talk about what happens when the loud, funny guy finally walks into therapy—and immediately starts crying. They unpack ADHD, people-pleasing, control issues, and why being “the fun one” is often just a coping mechanism in a clown nose and floppy shoes. From emotional dumps to re-parenting your inner child, this is a brutally honest, surprisingly tender conversation about what actually changes when you stop dodging your feelings and let someone help.

Lisa Lampanelli is back… and she’s got opinions. Comedy's former Queen of Mean may not be a licensed therapist, but that’s never stopped her from dishing out advice. So, after years of roasting celebs (and herself), the retired insult comic has decided it's time for her to help you shrink your problems, roast your bad decisions, and help you get your act together.

 

Each week, Lisa and her unpaid sidekick comedian Nick Scopoletti read letters from real people with real issues—mental health, body image, friendship, family, and why you’re still texting that loser. Every episode of "Shrink This!" is full of unfiltered wisdom, inappropriate jokes, a whole lotta heart, and ZERO B.S. Just when you thought counseling and straight talk had to be 100% serious, turns out it doesn't!
