  • True story…Louis Armstrong was actually Disney’s first choice to voice King Louie, but they decided against it due to the racist implications of having a black man voice an ape character. I think Louis Prima was a better fit anyway, he had a manic energy and is a little bit sarcastic and mean, where Louis Armstrong was just a very nice man


  • Hear me out here…trying to find a therapist who has the exact same beliefs as you in all regards is setting yourself up to make no progress in therapy. A competent therapist would never impose their beliefs or identity on you. Yes, there are bad therapists who would do that, and yes, feeling comfortable and having good rapport with your therapist are important factors, and one could argue it’s easier to feel comfortable with someone who’s exactly like you in every way. But competent therapists are not going to discuss their political ideology or religious beliefs with you except as carefully indicated during the course of therapy for your treatment progress, and I would run the other way from any therapist who advertises politics or religion up front.
