“I listened to this stunned. Whatever happened to this John Kosolcharen? I think it’s interesting that I cannot find anything on Wikipedia or YouTube on some of these people. Despicable.”

“I was keen to get into this series after binging the Three Dr Death series.
I have mixed feelings about this one …
I felt that the story they really wanted to tell didn’t turn out to be a clear cut hero and villains tail of good and evil , so the makers had to resort to the ethics and...”Read full review »

“Listening to podcasts about medical scams and the victims of misrepresentation is a vicarious enjoyment. The final two episodes of this series is worth listening for anyone who experiences or knows someone who experiences serious chronic illness. Lauren Beil does a superb job of challenging...”Read full review »

“This is entertaining but seems edited and reported in ways that are problematic. From the jump, it’s strange how little interest the reporter seems to take in Genetech, who are clearly culpable in what goes wrong. I don’t even think the founder of Genetech was mentioned by name until the final...”Read full review »

Seeing as this came out before the pandemic, I'd love to think that the host will do an equally skeptical exposé on the more recent,...”Read full review »

And the doctor that says backs and knees and other issues, EVENTUALLY GET BETTER…. is grossly uneducated and likely has no clinical...”Read full review »

“When this pod first came out about one scary doctor, I was excited to hear that more series were being added - but when I “subscribed again” and there is, is the trailer from 2019 ☹️🙁
Please bring it back 🙏🏼”

All the tales were moving when the victims would talk about their experiences. This is definitely a...”Read full review »

“This is such a well done podcast. I donated stem cells when my daughter was born (1998). My uncle had just died from Parkinson’s, I hoped it would further the research- I sure hope they didn’t end up in the hands of these scammers. An interesting follow up would be the women who donated, and what...”Read full review »

“It sums up everything that’s wrong with the US healthcare system. Doctors and clinics shouldn’t be a money making enterprise. Adverts for treatments? Scripts for doctors? 5K for an injection? This isn’t freedom this is money corrupting what should be an ethical choice - to dedicate your life to...”Read full review »

“I really enjoyed this. I’ve wondered about stem cells for a shoulder injury and it’s helped determine I wouldn’t go near it. This sounds like just another circumstance where money is made in the back of broken promises, greed, and placebo while the FDA does sweet fa about it.”

“This story was so interesting and brilliantly hosted by Laura. I had no idea about this stem cell saga. I can not believe this actually happened. I feel for the victims; those that believed in the “treatment” only to come out worse off, permanently maimed, and out of pocket by thousands.”

“Is there any way to block wondery pods from showing up?
I’ve been baited into beginning waaaaay too many of these commercials with podcasts interjected.
Every one is over dramatic, over produced and just plain awful.
If wondery is involved, it’s not worth your time!”
