Customer Reviews
Made me LOL
I look forward to this podcast (including the thoughtful and topical banter!) every week. I particularly enjoyed the chaotic energy of Daniel’s Adderall episode. Wow. So informative! The montage of mishaps had me LOL while driving my grandmother to a baby shower. Perfection!
Great listen! Worth a follow.
There are so many podcasts out there these days. Lately has great conversations and the audio quality is excellent. Host is very engaging and I am finding the topics of the first three episodes so far really interesting - gives me early “Reply All” vibes with more social context thrown in.

So much to like about this podcast: a warm approachable host, probing questions, just long enough, relevant topics. I go away feeling edified!
