    Not very interesting
    ...and I subscribe to big pharma...psych meds. If I can fall asleep on a topic that effects me personally, you’re doing something very wrong. I listen to ANYTHING. This subject doesn’t have to sound like a boring college lecture.

    SO GOOD
    I love the narrator and the style of podcast. Super education and informative- while also being entertaining, also well edited. Everything a podcast needs to be solid!

    Very educational. Looking forward to season 3. Too many podcasts going by the wayside. Keep up the great work.

    Beautiful, Thoughtful, and Interesting
    This is a really interesting podcast, thoughtful and insightful. I like that it isn’t judge mental, it seems to be more about getting to the root cause of drug abuse and addiction. My only regret is that I will run out of episodes too soon because I just can’t stop listening. Thank you Geoff!

    So good
    Decided to take a chance on this podcast and happy I did. The show is extremely interesting and I have learned about the history of drugs. So happy I never got into drugs.

    Newcomer who’s hooked
    It’s refreshing to hear a more science/practical based podcast about addiction. Real life vs mysterious approaches to recovery. Podcast is put together very well and I love it

    Very Interesting Topics
    Love this! Concise, thoroughly researched, bringing an analogy or setting up the situation for us to consider, digest and pull up our own conclusions. Well done. Looking forward to hearing more from Jeff.

    I love this show
    It’s such a well done podcast. And it actually makes me laugh every time Jeff says “and this show is on drugs”

    Fair and balanced
    This show provides a great look at drugs and the facts while not being anti-drugs or being a drug promoter

    Good stuff

    Nurse thinks this is rad
    I love this podcast. I gave Ativan to a patient yesterday and shared a little bit about what I'd learned from the Miltown episode! It's so interesting and I love learning the history behind drugs!
  • Kuntzie13
    Great show....
    However as good as this show is... the mill town episode is awful. I can't listen to someone talk with spit in their mouth and it's not filtered out.

    Excellent Podcast
    This podcast is not only informative, but also interesting- like the listener is having a conversation with the host- not like simply reading a text book. Each episode covers a different aspect of how drugs (both legal and illegal) intersect with our everday lives. It draws on the history of the pharmaceutical industry, social constructs, today's politics, and overt and implicit racism in our society. I reccomend listening to this regardless of your position on drugs today. I can almost guarantee you will learn something. Well done, CBC.

    Love it
    Fair and realistic look on drugs without trying to cash in on the fear culture
  • Snelson218
    Engaging and interesting
    This is clearly going to be a favorite. Produced well and super interesting. Can't wait for more.
  • graham.i.am
    Screw the stigma
    Love this.. great to open the conversation. I hope this leads to mental health awareness for some!
  • Clinto700
    Great stuff
    Love the lense- really explores drugs in a different light
  • BrienneofBK
    Ladies take Drugs Too
    This is a really great podcast that explores how drugs influence our lives and culture in both positive and negative ways. However, I'm fairly disappointed that the interviews seem to be with mostly men. In particular, the end of the Sex, on Drugs episode, there is only one man interviewed about his experience having sex while high, despite the chemical interaction of substances like cocaine impacting women's brains and sexual experiences much differently.
