  • Ageist Guest WTH?

    I am a doctor and I work with primary care doctors across the age spectrum. The idea that a doctor over 40 will not be open, up to date, able to treat addiction or provide a level of care that doctors under 40 can is not my experience.

    I see that doctors have unique practice habits that may be more linked to their personalities or other factors, but age doesn't seem to be the deciding factor.

  • Great podcast but …

    Very moths ting and insightful. I think people though don’t realize how they make themselves look unintelligent when they use the foul language in an interview as if they cannot articulate themselves otherwise. Just saying…it takes away from the quality of the interview

  • My Go-to

    This podcast has been my No. 1 resource on my sobriety journey. It’s just excellent. I will be 9 months free from the prison of drinking 3-5 glasses of wine every night on March 4! Highly recommend the alcohol free lifestyle- pun intended!
