OM DETTA AVSNITT
This week on The Plot Sickens, we’re reviewing Patch Adams where laughter may be the best medicine, but we’ve got a few notes for the chart.
We talk Robin Williams, bedside manner, patient dignity, questionable boundaries, and whether or not we would swim in a pool of spaghetti noodles.
The Gesundheit! Institute is the real nonprofit Patch Adams founded around his broader vision of healthcare centered on compassion, community, friendship, creativity, and care rather than simply the clown-nose version Hollywood gave us.

It’s Deltra’s first time watching Steel Magnolias, and it brings up a lot. As two people living with metastatic breast cancer, we talk through illness, grief, and humor—and what it feels like when the person who is sick isn’t really the center of their own story.
As Ouiser would say, “If you don’t…
This week, we review Other People—and it hit hard.
With a powerful performance by Molly Shannon, the film explores the reality of cancer from treatment to hospice in a way that feels raw and deeply human. We break down what it gets right—and why this one stays with you.
