The Complex is a genre-bending audio drama set in an apartment building full of fictional adults with ADHD--all of them in therapy with the very real ADHD therapist James Ochoa, who plays himself. Voiced by some of the finest actors in Austin, Texas, The Complex features captivating, creative storylines as well as “afterthoughts” episodes, in which Ochoa and his son Jules discuss aspects of ADHD in depth. Tune in for the drama, stay for the ADHD insight! Written by Robin Chotzinoff and Jules Ochoa Produced by Jules Ochoa/Jerryrigged Studio Informed and inspired by Focused Forward: Navigating the Emotional Storms of Adult ADHD, by James Ochoa. With: James Ochoa, Jenny Larson, John Brickley, Jules Ochoa, Marina DeYoe-Pedraza, Noel Gaulin, Renna Larson, and Tom Doyal PRAISE FOR THE COMPLEX “A creative and informative show!” “Great for adults with add/adhd. Describes the real side, not just the typical text book! “I listen to multiple podcasts about ADHD and The Complex has been a great change in format and perspective. The serial nature of the storyline was fun to follow, and created anticipation for the next episode. . .I feel pretty knowledgeable about ADHD and I learned new information, new strategies and saw the traits and actions of ADHD in fun yet concrete examples through the characters at the complex. Thanks so much for producing this series, and can we please have a “Season 2?” I need to know what happens!” “This podcast made me realize that much of my anxiety and depression in my life came from dealing with the “storms” of adult ADHD.” “A very clever way to help people who suffer from Adult ADHD to feel less alone. The characters in this podcast really came alive for me.” “Give it a listen if you even suspect you are one of us. You will most certainly learn something.” “This show departs from the standard interview format to give us a look at the ADHD experience in a funny, charming, and relatable way.”
