  • The only podcast I’ll pay for

    This is the only podcast I’ve ever subscribed to. I put dr. Adam on every night when I’m going to sleep and leave it running all night. I find his voice and delivery soothing, but I also enjoy his content and opinions. Thank you dr. Adam!

  • Love the podcast

    Dr.Adam provides a unique and insightful perspective with a sprinkle of humor to the shows we live for and love to hate.

    I am really hoping you’ll do an episode on the Idaho 4 sentencing. Although it’s outside of the usual podcast focus, walking us through the hearing with your skillset would provide a layer of insight not available to most.
