Reel Quacks

By Ivy & Friends

Film/shows & Psychology/Personality Typing -- our two favorite things, combined! Fun, frivolous (and often surprisingly profound) discussions about the psychology of our favorite films, shows, and characters, sometimes accompanied by a beer or two. We are fascinated by Myers Briggs (MBTI) and the Enneagram, so you might learn a thing or two about yourself, as well!
