I am not finished with the whole series but the first 4 episodes are amazing. So much detail and critical thinking went into this. There is a lot of blame to go around and this series shows who is responsible/how this happened and is still happening. A must listen!
Dr Drew thank you for doing this podcast I’ve learned so much and really appreciate I’m currently separated and these episodes have been incredibly helpful. Keep up the passion and great work thank you very much
I enjoy this podcast but sometimes the host is really rude to the callers (namely on the Predator episode.) He has zero empathy for the callers (specifically the one with agoraphobia and the one who called about women being able to dress like they want.) I couldn’t believe this guy was in any field of helping people. One guy on the episode was super gentle and understanding but the main guy shocked me with his lack of empathy.
Have always loved Dr.Drew, now enjoy listening to Dr. Bruce as well!!
Thanks for sharing some of your knowledge!! Really enjoy!
I love all things Dr. Drew and have to agree. Its nice to hear both Dr. Drew and Bruce be able to finish sentences. Educational and entertaining.
