    Therapy/Therapeutic Resistance

    This weeks Radio Lab brings you two wildly different stories on New York's favorite pastime: therapy.

Producer: Alix Spiegel
(This documentary is part of the America Project series which can be found at www.theamericaproject.org, the series was funded by a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.)

Producer: Natalie Kestecher
"Karioke Counselor" first aired on the Australian Broadcast Corporation's program "Radio Eye":
