Sue Perkins: Psychedelics and Punching Joe for Therapy

Sue Perkins arrives at Dr Joe’s office carrying the weight of a relentlessly busy life - filming, touring, creating - and leaves having quite literally taken it out on him.

As she attempts to unwind, Sue recounts a life lived at full tilt: hallucinogenic trips in South America, being shot at point-blank range, and a brain that never seems to switch off. It’s a whirlwind of stories that makes slowing down feel like an alien concept.

Somewhere along the way, Joe realises he’s learning more than he ever has from a guest - even if that education includes alarming facts about ducks and owls and an improv lesson he won't be forgetting for a while.

Naturally, the session builds to one of Joe’s boldest exercises yet. Boxing gloves on and with stress triggers stuck to his body, Sue is invited to punch away everything weighing her down, using Joe as a fully willing human punching bag.
