CAUTION: This episode contains descriptions of gay conversion therapy that are equivalent to mental and physical abuse.  
A discussion with psychology professor Sheldon W. Helms regarding Gay Conversation Therapy, its various iterations,  the fallacy of the concept, the brutality of its implementation, and the failure of the government to intervene in a meaningful way. This episode may also be viewed here.
Sheldon W. Helms is professor of psychology at Ohlone College in Fremont, CA. Sheldon is also an activist and advocate for science and critical thinking, and gives public science talks on a variety of topics related to those interests.  "As a psychology professor, I have a vested interest in encouraging people to think more critically about the world around them. This is particularly true in regard to human interaction. Many of us spend our lives floundering about, trying to figure out what makes people tick (and what makes us tick), doing only a mediocre job at it. Only by studying the social sciences do we have even the slightest chance of acquiring such knowledge."
