“This podcast should be compulsory listening to all professionals involved in caring for / treating people with Parkinson's. My husband asked his neurologist at his annual appointment if he follows it and he said no, but acknowledged he’d heard of it. A start I suppose.”Read full review »

“This is fascinating listening in a rare frank discussion of a disease which affects this group of friends. But more than that we feel we know them as several members of the group had television careers before developing the disease.
