SHOW INTRODUCTION:

If you’ve ever struggled with anger or wanting to club someone, let alone yourself, then do we have the walking through anger show for you. 

Today I’ll be talking with Dr. Christian Conte, anger management expert, radio and TV personality, co-host of Coaching Bad on Spike TV and the Secret Life of Kids on USA Network, resident therapist for family therapy on VH1, TED talker extraordinaire, and the author of a brilliantly zenny book on anger management, “Walking Through Anger”

That’s what I want to talk with him about today, about a new design for confronting conflict in an emotionally charged world. Plus we’ll talk about worms and toads, spiritual imagery and gargoyles, walking in the hole, what on earth are conteisms, and what in the world is the great watermelon slayer.
