Amazing for fans of comedy and conversation
This is a great podcast in every way. It is everything I expected it to be and more. I've always enjoyed host Paul Gilmartin as a contributor to the political podcast The Jimmy Dore Show, and he's been a good guest on many other podcasts I listen to, so I was glad he started his own show. He is a wonderful host - you can really hear his interest in his guests and the topics and his listeners. The COMEDY: this is a great podcast to get inside the heads of cool comedians who you may or may not have heard of...they are all interesting guests in either case. The conversations tend to focus a bit more on feelings than comedy, but there are usually funny stories and humorous moments that keeps the whole thing well-balanced. The MENTAL ILLNESS: this a great podcast for people who are affected by (or just interested in) mental health issues. Paul and his guests all have first-hand experiences with mental illness or depression, which constantly reinforces a theme for the listener - you are not alone in your pain. This aspect makes each episode almost a positive daily affirmation...an anti-depressant of sorts. A great job... Thanks Paul!Read full review »

I got to know Paul Gilmartin through Never Not Funny and the Adam Carolla Show, and I've always enjoyed him, but this show operates on such a different level. I am a podcast junkie; i listen to a ton of different shows to get me through my horrible job. I put this one on today to hear the...Read full review »

I listened to the first two episodes of this podcast today, and it's really a godsend for anyone dealing with any psychological problems. There's a lot of honest discussion from Paul and his guest that can be helpful for those afraid to take the first step to getting any kind of help....Read full review »
