Radio Therapy

By Martin Kaste
Published November 9, 2002 at 11:00 PM CST

Psychologists in a hospital in Buenos Aires are trying to help their patients cope by putting them in front of a microphone. As NPR's Martin Kaste reports, on Radio La Colifata, or Crazy Radio, you can listen in as patients chitchat about popular culture, play their favorite songs, and even try to explain what lead them to a breakdown.
