Customer Reviews
Behavioral Corner
Wide range of helpful and informative topics and guests. Steve Martorano’s knowledge, humor and empathy make him a great host.
Retreat Treatment Center
This organization that helps mental health and addiction is fantastic—they cater to Active Duty and Veterans—having a podcast to connect with our everyday problems. I enjoy this company and all things they provide for their clients.
Informative and yet casual friendly conversation
These podcasts are enjoyable for a few reasons. The first one being is they are more conversational in how they inform. Being fed just facts and statistics is not engaging to me. Hearing facts and then hearing how they impacted peoples lives or have made a difference in peoples lives does. The second reason is that the length is perfect. Long enough to get the point of the discussion but short enough to not get bored or distracted. I also like the variety of topics. Steve has a way of moving the conversation along and I always appreciate messages of hope.
