I didn't like the first few episodes of The Expanse either, I thought they were so focused on the world building that they didn't flesh out the characters well enough for me to care. But they figure out a better balance about halfway through season 1 and by the end of the season I was all in. I consider it one of my favorite Sci Fi tv series now.

That's pretty much exactly what I would say. I'm grateful there's so much more awareness now. But it would have been waaayy easier to find out in my teens than in my 30s, now that I have years of ingrained habits and self destructive thinking. Its like carving wood instead of shaping play doh.

I listen to The Besties and Into the Aether, mostly because their tastes align with mine a lot of the time.
