Alright folks, grab your notebooks or just settle in, because today’s little mission was figuring out who actually hosts that The Psychologists Are In Podcast Tour. Sounds simple, right? Yeah, not so much when you actually dive in. Wanna know how it went? Here’s the play-by-play.
Where It Started: Pure Curiosity (and Maybe Mild Frustration)
So, I was catching up on some podcast clips this morning – listening while making coffee, you know the drill – and I hear this mention of “The Psychologists Are In Podcast Tour.” Sounded cool. Instantly, my brain goes: “Okay, cool tour… but wait, who exactly are the psychologists actually talking on this thing?” Like, I know the main podcast exists, but a tour? Who’s fronting that?
Couldn’t find it quickly on my podcast app. No quick link saying “Meet Your Hosts!” Big sigh. Felt obvious it should be, but it wasn’t. Frustration level: low, but rising. Time to dig in properly.
Phase 1: The Obvious Place – The Podcast’s Home
First stop: the official page for the main podcast itself. “The Psychologists Are In,” right? That’s gotta be it. Scrolled down, looking for anything about a tour. Found an events section… eventually. Scrolled some more. Nothing. Bunch of links to episodes, bios… but the tour hosts? Zilch. Total dead end. Surprising!
Phase 2: Hitting Up the Source – APA Website Time
Since the podcast is affiliated with the American Psychological Association, I figured, “Duh! Check *.” Searched for the podcast name + “tour.” Got results, but mostly about upcoming tour dates and locations. Every event page I clicked? Yep, told me where it was happening, when… but nothing specific about the hosts speaking at each tour stop. It just assumed I knew who “The Psychologists” were. Felt like missing the main course! Scrolled, clicked back, scrolled again. No joy. Starting to feel like I was missing something really basic.
Phase 3: Breakthrough – Digging into the Regulars
Okay, deep breath. Decided to backtrack. “Forget the tour tour for a sec,” I told myself. “Who hosts the regular podcast every day?” That HAS to be the starting point for the tour hosts, right? Probably the same folks?
Jumped back to the main podcast page. This time, I avoided the tour stuff and just hunted for “About” or “Hosts.” Found it! A bio section! Clicked through. Boom.
The core hosts are Dr. Thema Bryant and Dr. Joy Harden Bradford. Dr. Thema – clinical psychologist, trauma expert, does a lot with social justice stuff. Dr. Joy – counseling psychologist, known for her “Therapy for Black Girls” work, super focused on mental health in the Black community.
Okay, that made sense. So, the main hosts hosting the tour were almost definitely Dr. Thema and Dr. Joy. Why make it so complicated?! Should be plastered everywhere the tour is mentioned! But hey, mission accomplished.
Wrapping It Up: The “Duh!” Moment
So, the answer turned out to be straightforward once I ignored the confusing tour marketing and went back to basics. The hosts on The Psychologists Are In Podcast Tour are, quite logically:
- Dr. Thema Bryant
- Dr. Joy Harden Bradford
It’s their show, so it’s their tour! Honestly, the fact it took digging past the tour pages themselves to find the hosts listed clearly on the main podcast page was… surprising? Funny in hindsight? Maybe just a little silly.
Lesson for the day: Sometimes the answer is simpler than the path you take to find it. Always check the obvious core info first! Makes me think websites could make this way easier.
Anyway, that’s all for today’s little research adventure. Glad we figured that out! Dr. Thema and Dr. Joy seem like amazing voices to hear, especially in a live tour setting. Hope you found this peek into my process helpful, or at least amusing. Until next time!
