    Repetitive
    I have no idea how you expect people with ADHD to listen to such a long introduction for every single episode, repeating the same things and you can’t skip it! I can’t even get to listen to the contents of the show!!! Ridiculous!

    Unlistenable
    It might be great information but the sound quality is so awful I can’t listen to it.

    My go-to podcast for reliable, current ADHD information.
    Jeff’s the real deal. Thanks for the current ongoing information. He’s my go to for accurate information.

    Answers to so many ADHD questions!
    Great content that brings to light the underlying biology of my ADHD brain. And appreciate the practical solutions provided. The sound quality could be improved and I’d give it a 5 star!

    Poor Sound Quality :(
    I listenened to this podcast for the first time today. I really wanted to listen to Dr. Saline talk about Perfectionism so the content was incredibly relevant to me as a late-diagnosed woman with ADHD but I was really struggling with the extremely poor sound quality (i.e. disruptive rapid, repeating pops and snaps) while the host and guest were talking. I understand that the vibe/style is AM talk radio so it sounds a little muffled but that was easier to overlook than the jarring little morse-code tap noises. I tried but had to stop after 15 minutes because it was so distracting. Most ADHD-ers have sensitive nervous systems so auditory issues like this are a dealbreaker so I hope the show looks into this because I think the content is so important.

    Reassuring Podcast
    I appreciate that someone is finally talking about the stigmatization of stimulant medication. Finally at age 37 I was diagnosed with ADD and am now receiving the proper treatment. It has improved my life in so many ways, but it took 10 years of talking to different doctors before I was able to get a proper diagnosis. I have been prescribed about 15 different antidepressants over the years that did nothing. I understand that stimulants can be abused, but I suspect that many doctors don’t want to even diagnose ADD or ADHD nowadays. I can attest that I would have been a lot more efficient in both my occupation and daily life if I had been screened for ADD 10 years ago. Thankfully, now things have improved. However, I do think that the focus on “abuse” and “controlled substance” has too many doctors afraid of a medication which has been around for decades.

    Sound quality needs improvement
    Content is helpful! But the sound quality is lacking and sometimes hard to listen all the way through.

    Love content, audio quality needs work
    Lots of good information here. I wish I could get my husband to listen, but he refuses to because the audio quality bothers him. It is mostly with Jeff’s audio.

    Great content (but distracting interruptions)
    The podcast provides very valuable information with knowledgable guests. There are very few resources that go in-depth in such a variety of ADD related topics. The one thing that affects the quality of the podcast and is very distracting is the host’s *constant* interjections and “yeps” while the guests are talking. It interrupts the guest and makes it difficult to focus on what the guest is saying. Please let the interviewees finish their sentences.

    Helpful content overshadowed by poor production
    There have been a few episodes that have been helpful as I navigate parenting an ADHDer, but far more episodes that where unlistenable because of poor sound quality- dramatically uneven balance between the two speakers and heavy breathing or other extraneous noises.

    Good content, bad format & audio quality
    This podcast has great content, but the cheesy AM radio talk show format makes it tough to listen to. Oh, and it sounds like it was recorded over the telephone or off an old AM transistor radio. Add in the fake studio audience applause, radio announcer guy introducing the different segments and the radio style ads and the knowledgeable host and great guests can’t overcome the poor choice of format. I really hate to bash the show since it could be such a great resource to those with ADHD, but, unfortunately, the outdated format that really suffers when compared to the high quality of just about every other podcast produced in 2016. I can’t figure out why they still use a format like this since there are plenty of free or cheap resources for easily recording high quality podcasts these days. Even just a simple recording of the host and guest off of Skype would be infinitely better sounding. And a different, less “advertisey” ad format would probably generate better response rates for the advertisers and more revenue for the producers. The format and poor audio quality are really distracting (sorry) when trying to listen to the show. I wish they would just publish their interviews with ADHD experts - which are awesome! - without all the wacky talk radio gimmicks and upgrade the sound quality. Please! I want to be able to enjoy the great work you’re doing!

    Tons of good info
    This podcast was one of my introductions to learning more about my ADHD when I was diagnosed at age 48. I have learned so much here, and have also checked out many of his guests websites, etc. I wouldn’t hesitate to say that this podcast could be a life changer for people wanting to learn more about ADHD!

    Amazing resource
    Jeff Copper has the most interesting and informative guests from the world of ADHD on his show. He does an amazing job of connecting the pieces, making sense of the ADHD brain by engaging his guests and educating and entertaining his audience. I have told people that I have learned more from his show than I have from attending numerous trainings- and the information he presents is always up-to-date and cutting edge. I love this show!!!

    Great ADD resource!
    I am listening to all the podcasts from the beginning. I'm up to Sep of 2010 and find the interviews very informative. I am an adult who got diagnosed with ADD about a year ago and have been seeking information ever since. This podcast is a great help and the host puts a lot of work into it.
