A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Been listening to Dr. k for years and as an individual but also a psyche student I am constantly fascinated and finding more questions to ask but also satisfactory and interesting answers through HGG. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

Pascal (passing through) H. · Apr 2025

Dr.K does an amazing job of blending western scientific principles, and understanding of the functions of the body/brain, then combines it with the deep understanding of the mind offered by eastern philosophy. The synthesis that occurs is so deeply profound. He’s an amazing teacher and an excellent communicator of ideas, anyone and everyone stands to gain from listening to this podcast.

Wyatt Monk · Jan 2025

Rapid fire, dense, complicated - but incredibly digestible. I’m so appreciative of this podcast.

KerDougherty · Dec 2024

I’ve listened to Dr. K for a couple years now and I’m quickly learning how to read myself and my emotions better (I’m alexithymic). I’m also better at helping other people by being insightful on an emotional wavelength. Its also helped my relationship because I’ve gotten better at communication and taught that to my partner as well. Every podcast relates to you in some way. You’ll be surprised what things click with you in an unexpected way but the stars align in most strange ways sometimes. Listen to the whole thing and see what aligns with your life and then apply those learnings. There are so many nuggets of brilliance sprinkled through all the podcasts and some podcasts are just solid gold that feel like it’s a story about you, your childhood, or your trauma. I think for Gen Z folks like myself, Dr. K fills a lot of educational voids in your life that modern school, society, parenting, friendships, and others things no longer fill as effectively. I’ve listened to probably 100 podcasts now and I’ve always learned something new and I’ve never regretted listening to a single one. Its actually astounding this content is free and everyone should take advantage of knowledge available here. It sounds crazy, but this content could literally extent your lifespan or make everyone around you a happier. For me, it’s that profound of an effect.
