  • Great

    Love the podcast. Good analysis of whats going on with all the family members . Nobody seems to be asking the burning question…Did Kody love Robin more than the others???? Has anyone asked him this point blank? Doesn’t seem like it.

  • My favorite podcast!

    Dr Adam has a unique and fun way of looking at just about everything. I love all his podcasts, but the most recent one called “You and I Will Live Forever “ really resonated with me. If you are not subscribed, I highly recommend you do! Definitely worth listening to his podcasts!
