The content and guests are varied and interesting but the overall efficacy/impact is hindered by Dr. Parker’s approach which often fails to dig deeper, asking more probing questions. Even simply asking each guest to narrow the focus of the topic or provide working tools by asking such questions as: “What in your opinion/experience are the 3 most important ways to address XYZ?” or “What is the most concerning/critical area we should be looking at?”. Sometimes there seems to lack even a basic cordiality that then comes off as smugness and really throws off the mood of the interview. A guest is not going to be as forthcoming if they feel the interviewer is too aggressive or is less than receptive. (Ex: Episode 245, 36:00)
Just finished session 118 with neuropsychologist, Dr. Braun. Excellent content presented in a relaxed style. I'm a neuropsychoogist with a specialization In ADHD so I appreciate both Dr. Parker's and Dr. Braun's efforts demystifying the practice of neuropsychology.
I especially liked this Podcast because it provided a wealth of valuable brain health research and tips in an approachable, easy-to-listen-to format. The rapport between the Guest Speaker (Dr. Braun) and Host (Dr. Parker) was evident, and I hope to hear another Podcast with this Guest Speaker!
If you love science and psychology, then this is for you. The brain is such a mysterious machine, and listening to experts discuss how it works is fascinating. This seems like a pick-and-choose type podcast: I'll skip the shows focusing on estrogen and alzeimer's and go for creativity, anxiety, music, and others. But what I've listened to so far is great.
While much of what is here is valid and many may find helpful. As a board certified psychiatrist, I'm concerned that the podcaster is often presenting his own take on scientific findings and at times not accurately representing them (for instance suggesting amphetamines block CYP 2D6 or that using prozac with amphetamines is a problem as a result). This is not the case.
