Host:
Stories about people who were told that they're different. Some of them
were comfortable with it, some didn't understand it and some understood,
but didn't like it. Ira interviews people making a documentary about a
team of developmentally disabled people who travel across the country
doing man-on-the-street interviews. Plus, a mother and her son, who'd
had heart failure and been diagnosed as bipolar, and the sister of a
developmentally disabled brother, who one day quit his job and then quit
everything else, mystifying everyone in his life.
