The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) includes Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), characterized by a pattern of defiance and hostility toward authority. Critics argue these broad definitions pathologize normal personality traits and lead to over-medication and increased government monitoring of "difficult" individuals.
The hosts discuss the inclusion of Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. They jokingly diagnose themselves with the disorder, noting that traits like questioning authority and cynicism are now classified as diseases. They also touch upon the history of the DSM, including its past classification of homosexuality.
