In Episode 12, T and A discuss the increasingly competitive landscape of law school admissions and the rising LSAT and GPA medians across Texas law schools before turning to a much deeper conversation about the state of mental health care in America.

The episode examines suicide rates among veterans, attorneys, physicians, artists and other high-pressure professions while questioning whether America’s healthcare system is designed to truly heal people or simply manage symptoms.
