“Just listened to the alcohol in pregnancy episode and it’s frankly depressing to hear three female academics who seem unable to separate their moral judgements from their research interests. Essentially, the message of this episode is that British people are weird because they drink too much and...”Read full review »

“I was a big fan of this podcast, true drug information is much needed, but I’ve unfortunately had to unsubscribe as I don’t like the way this podcast has transitioned into another vanity project. I’m a subscriber to all the Distraction Pieces Network shows, and Say Why has just morphed into a...”Read full review »

“I listened to the cannabis episode and she could not even explain the endocannabinoid system which is found in all vertebrate creatures and this is why endo-cannabinoids and photo-cannabinoids actually work in our system. The adolescent brain grows until about 24 years of age. I could keep...”Read full review »

“This podcast doesn’t offer more than what you could find in a simple google or wiki search. I tried to listen to the DMT episode and not only was it not informative, parts of it weren’t even accurate. I was hoping that because it’s hosted by someone with a doctorate that it would offer up a...”Read full review »
