Chaotic family fights, a very messy kitchen, and that damn fork! Megan and Jess break down the star-studded  Season 2, Episode 6 of The Bear, called Fishes, possibly the most anxiety-provoking episode of TV ever. We discuss toxic family systems and the cost one can pay when choosing to go low-contact or no-contact with family.
