  • Strong show for ADHD adults

    This show’s hosts select excellent topics and expand on them just the right amount, in a listenable way with humor and humility alongside the knowledge. Their May 1st conversation with Ari Tuckman is one of the best, most advice-packed, yet fun and orderly podcast episodes for ADHD adults that I’ve heard recently.
