Josh every time you share about your Mom I cry 😢 I get teared up just thinking of you going through such a tragic thing. As a mom all I ever did was Pray to God to keep me alive and well to be there for my kids and He did. My kids are 51,47 and 44 and I love them so. And I know your Mom wanted to do the same for you and your Siblings. I want you to know I wish I could just wrap my Mom arms around you and let you let go first . So proud of how you are as a Human Being❤🙏🏻🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Josh, I love and appreciate your show. Please keep doing what you’re doing and thank you for sharing your story. I also have a deep admiration for Dr Brucato… he has so much compassion for others, kindness, wisdom, intelligence and spirituality. What a wonderful combination of qualities. We need more people like you guys in this world. That includes Chris M as well. Another amazing human being. ❤
Thank you Josh and Dr.Gary for giving a loving and safe space for all of your callers and especially for Lindsey. In sharing her pain she has already started helping people move through their particular pain and giving her that life line to let her know she is not alone is like one of those invisible lines that Dr Gary spoke about in the poem that will hopefully help her feel connected and anchored in support and love. We all have pain and unfortunately some of us have experienced great tragedy in our lives but when you and Dr Gary speak about the importance of empathy, the importance of processing of pain and when you Josh share your deep and personal experiences that expose your vulnerabilities , that is such a leap of faith and I thank you for allowing us all to feel a little more connected in our own pain through your openness . Thank you to both and Dr Gary today even though you made me cry! 🙏
Hi, Josh & Gary I’m watching on the replay from the UK 🇬🇧 I keep missing the call in. I was wondering what Dr Gary thought of Sebastian step parent CP dressing in orange like a guilty person at a court hearing? I’m thinking he’s mocking the justice system but I could be wrong ? Thank you both for these amazing shows x
Thank you great show. There’s a Netflix documentary called Audrey and Daisy about girls getting rugged graped and videos made and cyber bullying .. one unalived herself… reminded me of the last caller. Maybe she can get in touch with those mothers. 🩷
Dr. Brucato you are such a cool person. You remind me of my brother who passed away a year ago. You are fascinating and seem like you are truly a good person in addition to being brilliant. I just bought your book BTW. Peace and Love go out to you.
@@drgaryb13 Hello! I am surprised and happy you responded to me! My brother was a great guy. He was very kind and had empathy for all. He always befriended that one person who no one else wanted to be friends with. He looked a little like you and was very intelligent like you. Probably not quite as informed as you, but was definitely very smart. He was interested in true crime and was well read in that he knew a lot about the human mind, and what made people do what they do. He was so interesting to talk to and if i had a question about something he was the first person I called. His name is Brian,, but my children, who are adults now, called him Uncle B. Uncle B was my boys" favorite uncle because he was fun and a great story teller, especially scary stories. He had a son the same age as my older child so my boys spent a lot of time with him. We miss him dearly and it still doesn"t seem real that he was taken as soon as he was. His death left a huge hole in our hearts and I wish I could wrap my arms around his big, caring and lovable , belly. Thank you Doc for letting me share his memory with you.
Lindsey I think our collective hearts broke for you and I am so sorry for your loss. Your beautiful daughter was not what happened to her but the sum of so much beauty, grace and love that she both gave and received. To Gary and Josh, who held a quiet space of compassion and kindness for Lindsey and her daughter, thank you from my heart to yours, it was very moving.
Lindsey your daughter is a beautiful soul!!! God Bless you both Sending Prayers to you!!! Never give up you have a lot to contribute to this world. Stay strong!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To Lindsey, very brave of you to call and so sorry for your loss. I lost my 1 year younger brother to an opiate od when he was 22. My mom was re-married and our stepdad didn’t speak to us, and our father was not in our lives. It was him and I; he was my bestfriend. I felt like half of me died and the world had changed to some new awful world. I was totally heartbroken. Grief comes in waves, and eventually I guess we humans learn to live with it. It’ll be 25 yrs next February. I take comfort in knowing that every day takes us one day closer to seeing them again, and now with some time passed I’m really grateful for life too. I’m sure you feel your daughter’s presence…and if you don’t yet, it’s because the grief and sorrow is still so heavy. You will. Sending you so much love and hugs, so brave of you to call. Made me remember again the most important reason we are here, to be good and kind to each other and to connect (thank you for that).There’s a higher plan we don’t know, and you still have lots’ to do here on Earth. Just like I realized I have. And remember, everyday one day less until we meet them again. Take care and thank you for for sharing. And hey, if you decide to make a video about Kendall I would love to see it! Maybe you could send it to Joshua and he’d share it?
This is very interesting. My dad is a cult leader, or was, he's alive but I don't know if he currently has a following, although he is charismatic and tends to make anyone around him draw in. Even if they are just intrigued. It also says in his army psych evaluation that he's a genius with antisocial personality disorder. For me, there is a lot of layers In my own thoughts when I think of him, so I keep my thoughts closer to the surface level. He was never unkind to me and in fact was very sweet and empathetic, that makes it more perplexing considering how he is with others. Super complex topic. I love listening to Dr. Gary
It was a good observation about sadism, not the Hindly/Brady or Rose and Fred West type, but the everyday sadism in daily life. People want to hurt people instead of help them, I wonder what Freud would say about that.
What a beautiful show. You have hit on something I don't see anywhere else on YT. Both of you come from a place of knowledge and compassion and offer the best advice. You are helping so many people, not just the callers. Please continue this format!! I almost hate to say this... Does anyone else have trouble understanding the caller? It's not just the delay. The sound is garbled. I understand about 50% of what they are saying. Is it my cheap headphones? I've seen other call in shows and don't encounter this problem. Thanks in advance for any advice for me.
Having watched the Susan Smith/ Michael & Alex case and now the Sebastian Rogers case… I am seeing incredible similarities between Susan Smith and Katie Proudfoot. Obvious difference being Susan Smith chose her bf and Katie chose her husband.
Thank you 👏 👏 👏 Josh, Dr. Brucato and especially to all of the Callers who were vulnerable and courageous for sharing their stories and insights. You’ve surely helped many others to not feel alone. This show has purpose.
I'm so sorry to the woman that called in about her daughter what a heartbreaking story. I worked for behavioral health for a while and I had to ask the doctor "why is there so much bullying?" "why do we have so many children seeing the doctor for bullying?" His response to that was ( to summarize/ paraphrase) "it doesn't end like it did when we were kids. It continues on social media so it's constant& there's never a break."
I wish I would have called in because I would love to know Dr Gary's thoughts on Wade Wilson the brutality of his crime was drug-induced, it was cold and callous there was no point or reason behind it, like robbing. He talked about the different two types of psychopaths and pretty much how children are malleable in the second camp. I believe Wade was very young when he committed those crimes before the age of 25. I'm wondering if the right intervention could have prevented 2 lives from being lost or if he enjoyed it. I personally believe the latter. I'd like to hear his thoughts.
I hope Lindsey can hold these ppl accountable for what they did to her daughter. What a shame. Dr gary is so right theres even worse drugs out there now. RI is opening safe injection sites now. I dont really agree w them but I can see why. The prob is they r lacing even weed w fentanyl so u never know what u r getting. From fake pills to weed and all in between. Not just needles either its smoked too. So sad omg 💜💜💜🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for Lindsey
I want to say, Dr. Gary and Josh, your hearts are pure gold. Thank you for using your gifts to help people in need. You never know who is listening and genuinely need your encouraging words. I love you guys! Thank you.
I realize mental health is an issue in this country, but we need to stop using this as an excuse for people that’s going out and doing mass shootings and murdering other people
