I enjoy all the podcasts so I always look forward to a new one, but I really enjoyed this one a lot. I had read some parts and history of that before, but didn’t know the whole story. Really fun and fascinating! And yet still useful and informative.
Thank you for wonderful storytelling and deep thinking. As a school teacher, I love your research and appreciate all your work. The latest show on your best aspect of yourself also being your worst was a new favourite. Thanks.
This show is great for self help and learning new skills. The co host constantly ruins it for me and has made it unlistenable for me. He’s so fake sounding and over the top annoying.
Looking forward to every episode. Funny, informative, always learning, well researched. Many other podcasts feel boring now, book promotion etc. Love all the different formats and how you both go very personal.
Thank you for sharing your personal journey with ADHD. This episode was one of my favorites. I wish you would do a part two with other famous people. I happen to be a highly-detailed person and I thought it was normal and that everyone was detailed, but apparently not. lol This episode was an eye-opener for me. Keep up with the good work.!!!
