Season 3, Last Episode is appalling

“Loved Season 1, Season 2 I couldn't get through due to the snarkiness, the derision for anything outside of western (aka white) medicine. But I gave Season 3 a chance and wasted hours of my life (no biggie) but the last episode? The cancer episode was harmful and upsetting and I still can't understand how Pushkin allowed it to air. HOW is it ok (or ethical) for a podcast host and a life coach to say what they think are appropriate treatments for late stage cancer? Or state (with unearned authority) what end stage looks like? Here's the thing - there's a very important discussion to be had about a popular life coach telling people to manifest health in lieu of cancer screenings. Totally here for that. But what the host and life coach discussed barely touched on that and dissected a dying woman's gaunt eyes and weight loss as definitive end-stage indicators. Oncologists will not even go so far as to say these things. Cancer can make someone "look" like they're dying, and it does not emphatically mean it is end-stage. Oncologists very often won't even tell their Stage 4 patients whether they should do treatment or whether they should focus on quality of life measures. I know this from personal experience and having to make the excruciating decisions of chemo or no chemo. And the doctor could not say what the right choice was. Yet a podcast host and a life coach are speaking on what patients should or shouldn't do. Like... what??? This is beyond inappropriate and honestly, harmful. It is a form of disinformation itself, which is ironic given the premise of the show.”Read full review »

“So engrossing - can’t wait to hear the rest of the episodes. This is a topic that has always fascinated me and I don’t think it gets enough attention. Definitely worth a listen!”

“I listened to the first two episodes today and I am completely hooked. The production quality of this show is great, and I appreciate that it is coming from all angles to explain how these came about and why people join them. I can’t wait to hear more!”
