# Critical Condition

A podcast by Shay Omi. Critical Condition is a forensic autopsy of pop culture that blends an English major’s analytical deep-dive with a counselor’s focus on the human cost and a physician’s precision. By examining how trauma and socio-political trends turn people into consumable objects, Shay looks at our biggest stars with precision and empathy to ask the essential question: why do we treat each other the way we do?
