	Description:		When our host, John Moe, started doing podcasts about mental health ten years ago, one of his first guests was his friend Andy Richter. Andy, who you know from various Conan shows and tons of other TV shows and movies, talked about having his depression pretty well managed at the time. Since then, his marriage ended in divorce and the Conan show on television ended as well. He returns to talk about the odd experience of dating after 27 years off the market, the joy of remarrying, and the unexpected, unironic, exhilaration of competing on Dancing with the Stars, where he became a fan favorite, lasting deep into the contest. He also talks about how his life has been a little different since that first appearance ten years ago as he became a vocal advocate for mental health awareness. ALSO!
