Show notes

Justin Garson, professor of philosophy at Hunter College and the Graduate Center City University of New York and author of "Madness: A Philosophical Exploration," has emerged as one of psychiatry's most compelling critics.

From his father's struggle with schizophrenia in the Nixon era to his own teenage experience with depression, Garson exposes how the "broken brain" narrative has robbed us of agency, created dependency on psychiatric drugs, and ignored the real roots of human suffering. Whether you've been diagnosed with a mental illness, take psychiatric medication, or simply wonder about the nature of human consciousness, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about mental health in modern society.

An alarming number of individuals find themselves dependent on antidepressants and psychiatric medications, desperately seeking guidance on how to safely discontinue their use. The general medical community has failed to assist people in safely getting off these drugs. The dependency can create severe withdrawal symptoms. Most doctors have no clue how to get their patients off safely keeping them in a cycle of drug dependency. The worst of prescribers will frame the withdrawal symptoms as worsening "depression" and justification for staying on drugs. On Episode 154 of the Radically Genuine Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin dives into the topic of deprescribing and tapering off psychiatric drugs with a pharmacist.
Dr. Shawn Gill, PharmD, is a pharmacist, writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur dedicated to sparking change in healthcare through deprescribing.

The Hindmarshes argue that the Affordable Care Act, far from fixing healthcare, has made it worse - and more expensive. They reveal why nutrition is ignored in medical schools and how standardized screenings could be harming patients. But it's not all doom and gloom - our guests offer radical solutions to fix the system, challenging listeners to take control of their own health.
