Thanks Rene - I was not aware of that video. Aside from the Cato event
of a few years ago, I didn't think there was very much more available
(not free of charge anyhow), so as Mira suggests, maybe Dr Schaler can
be of help on this matter.
There was a recent blog post over at LewRockwell.com perhaps of
interest to Szasz fans, linking to a YouTube video in which Dr Szasz
makes an appearance -

I'm a little confused, though. Did the editors cut the parts where the
psychiatrists promise that medical tests will be along in the near
future, or better, how brain scans in schizophrenic and
non-schizophrenic populations differ, or even better still, how the
claim that a psychiatric drug causes a change in the person hence
there is proof of a bona fide disease *and* treatment, etc etc?
As Dr Szasz put it, "If psychiatrists had to pay interest on their
promise of pathological lesions [to prove "mental illness" as a
putative brain disease], as borrowers must to lenders, the interest
alone would already have bankrupted them; instead, they keep reissuing
the same notes, undaunted by their perfect record of never meeting
their obligations"
