the absolute best psychiatry podcast

listening to this podcast, I slowly became more knowledgeable, as you would expect from a scientific podcast. But I also became a better therapist and a better human. I look forward to this podcast everyweek and appreciate what Dr. Puder does. He is a great mental health practionar and a great presenter/host. All episodes are well researched and creative. I have never found an episode uselss or boring. if you are even remotely into psychology or psychiatry this is for you. Dr. Puder also hosts alot of great guests, including one wonderful guest called Dr. Cummings. if it's in the brain, Dr. Cummings will know about it and explain it. Honesty, its a crime to skip on such a masterpiece. All the love and respect to Dr. Puder.
