About this listen

He's made national news for his recent legal troubles, but for your host, the saga of character actor Eddie Deezen has a local component, as they're from more or less the same small western Maryland town.  Deezen's actions at dining establishments and private homes have gotten him arrested and have led many to either defend or scorn him.  At first, his behavior looked a lot like entitlement.  As events unfolded over the past year, it started to appear there was much more going on from a mental illness standpoint.  But is religion getting in the way of him seeking help?  And how can we tell when bad behavior is more than just that...that there's an underlying issue that needs to be addressed? There are no easy answers, but we'll try to unpack what's going on and apply it to a wider perspective on mental health, enabling, gossip, and consequences, not just for Deezen, but for ourselves. https://www.facebook.com/OpeningTheWindowPodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/openingthewindow/ Theme music: "Mistakes" by Adam Rabin : https://mailbox.bandcamp.com/
