What if the X-Men, instead of becoming superheroes, decided to spend some time in therapy? If that idea intrigues you, The Bright Sessions should be your new favorite podcast. Written and produced by actress Lauren Shippen, the fictional narrative centers on a mysterious psychologist named Dr. Bright and her work with patients who all happen to have rather … unusual abilities.But The Bright Sessions, now in its third season, is far from a typical superhero story. Tautly written and well-acted by its small cast, the podcast combines shades of The X-Files and the HBO psychotherapy drama In Treatment, plus the youthful characters of a WB drama like Roswell or Smallville, into one compulsively listenable tale. It’s modern in its ideas but a throwback in its execution, a testament to the simple power of good storytelling that makes it an excellent pastime for, say, a holiday road trip home.
