- Superb exploration of the illness and stigma of addiction
This is a compassionate, revealing and deeply insightful series of conversations. Finty and John completely understand their subject and associated issues with deep personal and professional experience. There are some superb guests who all bring a unique perspective. You find yourself frequently saying “yes, I experienced that!”. Highly recommended and something of a relief to have discovered it.
