  • Alicia P. LMHC
    Amazing
    I listen to these on repeat- I laugh, I learn, I love it! Thank you for this valuable information that is extremely easy to understand for non medical doctors/providers working in the addiction field. This type of education is essential and you both provide it so well, truly- thank you!
  • your local psych PA
    Engaging and educational
    This podcast has been teaching me a lot about addiction medicine during my commute to work! As a provider, I find the content itself researched thoroughly and presented well by the hosts. It doesn’t feel too dense or too superficial. These two experts have such fantastic radio voices, too! It can be challenging in medicine to find a great mentor, someone whose practice of medicine and ethics you respect. After listening to several episodes of this podcast, I feel like I’ve stumbled upon two brilliant addiction medicine mentors :)
  • Sean me boy
