  • Veracity

    Current podcast attempts to present material as factual when in actuality it is CLEARLY editorializing…. It even employs hackneyed techniques such as voice tone and soundtrack.

  • Concise and helpful

    I love listening to this podcast to stay on top of the latest treatments. Please consider doing an episode on generic drugs, how they may be affecting treatment, and practical recommendations. I’m reading the book “Bottle of Lies” by Katherine Eban and I would love to know Dr. Aiken’s take, which is always fair and balanced. Thanks Dr. Aiken and Ms. Kelli!

  • The Best Psychiatry Resource!

    Carlat has become my #1 go-to resource when it comes to evidence based psychiatry. In the podcast, they do a great job navigating medications, cultural issues as well as therapeutic interventions. If I were to recommend any resource, this would be the first.

  • Annoying script-reading

    Please stop reading the scripts. Spend some time getting to know what you’re going to say and make it more casual and easy to listen to. It’s painful to hear these stilted voices just reading text. I can’t do it. We are not babies—we are professionals.
