  • I have enjoyed this show

    I felt that this show has been informative and interesting but as of blatantly helping promote AI nonsense in mental health of all things is not something I’m willing to support.

  • Thank you!

    I’ve been listening to this podcast since it was The Hilarious World of Depression. The fact that the stories and experiences I relate to so much are shared by people that have some measure of “celebrity” makes it that much more powerful. For instance, I would never in my wildest dreams think I had anything in common with Moon Unit Zappa, but I could totally relate to her story. Thank you, Moon Unit, for sharing your story and thank you John Moe for this great podcast.
