The Dr. Phil Podcast

Dr. Phil enters the debate around the increasingly popular choice to NOT have children. Amy and Lance are a childfree couple of over 30 years. Emily is a childfree woman who says she is more than her reproductive organs. Scarlett is a mother of 4, Shane is a father of 5, and Terry is a father of 7 and they all say childfree people are selfish and will regret their choices when they’re older and lonely.

Families are under attack by our family court system. Two parents say their children were put in harm’s way when the judge placed them with the abusive parent. Nearly every six days in the US, a child is killed amid a custody dispute. Families are under attack by our family court system.  The big problem is these custody cases are often siloed from the criminal court system and the family judge is deciding in a vacuum.  Twenty-two-year-old RJ says he and his siblings were in a 15-year tug of war between his mother and father. RJ says he was collateral damage of a broken system that failed him.  RJ’s mother says the judge in her case was biased and sent her to jail several times.  Jason says his 8-year custody battle over his daughter nearly killed him but he would do anything for his daughter.  Former Los Angeles Criminal prosecutor and co-anchor of News on Merit Street, Loni Coombs, went on assignment to find out if Lady Justice is failing families throughout America. Dr. Phil, Loni, Michigan Circuit Court Judge Rosemarie Aquilina who presides over family and criminal court cases, and psychiatrist and former medical director for Los Angeles County Department of Children & Family Services talk about why the family court is the most dangerous court in the US and what couples can do to avoid it for the sake of their children.

Drink spiking is on the rise and extremely underreported. More than 90% of people who suspected their drink was spiked didn’t report the incident to the hospital, police, or venue. Nearly 11 million women in the US have been sexually assaulted while drunk or drugged.  Drink spiking is so common yet so underreported due to lack of awareness, shame/embarrassment, memory loss, fear of retaliation, lack of evidence and or legal/social barriers. 50% of women and men surveyed had their drink spiked at least once. 37% had their drinks spiked multiple times. 72% of people don’t know what to do in a spiking situation and when victims DO go to the hospital they’re often turned away unless there are signs of rape or assault. These drugs are sheer assault weapons and can be used for serious crimes. They are very expensive to screen so while you can get screened for marijuana in almost every medical facility, most hospitals don’t have screens for some of the most common date rape drugs: Rohypnol, Ketamine and GHB. We’ll hear from several people who say they were roofied and it was way worse than any hangover – symptoms of vomiting, blacking out, low pulse, weak heart rate and shallow breathing. We’ll feature a test strip demo and other solutions. 

College campuses across the country, including our most elite institutions, have been run amuck with protests led by pro-Hamas student organizations and outside agitators.

Tonight, we recap the heart-wrenching details of the incident and discuss the broader implications of marijuana use in our society today. We also talk to Bryn’s legal team and one of the forensic specialists who helped discover Bryn was without a doubt suffering from a Cannabis-Induced Psychosis at the time of the incident. Bryn, who never imagined such a tragedy could unfold, speaks candidly about her experience and ongoing recovery. Tune in as Dr. Phil provides a deeper look into this complex case and its shocking legal outcome.

Dr. Phil sits down with Bryn Spejcher, convicted of stabbing her friend 108 times while in a Cannabis-Induced Psychosis. In an exclusive interview Dr. Phil delves into the harrowing tale of Bryn Spejcher, who in 2018 experienced what is known as Cannabis-Induced Psychosis. This led to the fatal stabbing of her friend Sean O'Melia with an 8-inch kitchen knife, and subsequently, Bryn turning the knife on herself. In an intense confrontation, it required 8 police officers, multiple tasings, and physical force that broke her arm, to disarm her. Following a controversial trial in late 2023, Bryn was convicted of involuntary manslaughter but faced no jail time, ultimately getting three years’ probation instead. Marijuana is no longer the “harmless” plant so many people say it is, and Bryn’s story exemplifies the dangers. Join us as Bryn shares her story in a Dr. Phil Primetime exclusive interview, shedding light on that horrific, and deadly, night.

We will shine a spotlight on the gripping stories of individuals caught in the crossfire of anger-fueled situations that have left lasting scars on their lives and delve into the minds of individuals who staunchly believe that their anger is a justified response to perceived injustices and frustrations.

America is facing a silent AND growing epidemic: the Adderall crisis. The use of this stimulant (and its generics) has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022. But these numbers only scratch the surface. The DEA warns we're on the brink of our next drug crisis. America is facing a silent AND growing epidemic: the Adderall crisis. The use of this stimulant (and its generics), known by street names like A-Train, Addy, Amps, Christmas Trees, Co-Pilots, Lid Poppers, Smarties, Study Buddies, and Study Skittles has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022. But these numbers only scratch the surface. A dangerous black market has emerged, flooding streets with counterfeit pills indistinguishable from the real thing. Users, often unaware, risk their lives with every dose. Even legitimate prescriptions carry significant dangers. The DEA warns we're on the brink of our next drug crisis. With 5-6 million Americans using Adderall without proper diagnosis and one in four teens in some schools abusing prescription stimulants, we're watching a new generation spiral into un-prescribed/unneeded use and addiction.

The US faces alarming challenges with the Chinese Communist Party, including China's purchase of US land near military sites, growing control over agriculture, and harassment of some American citizens. Notably, over 80% of our medications' active ingredients are imported, largely from China, threatening national security. When it comes to the Chinese Communist Party – the United States could be singing an alarming new tune, "Oh say can you CCP... we’re in trouble?" Tonight we’re breaking down China’s disturbing purchase of US land near key military installations, the CCP’s quietly growing dominance over our agriculture and food supply chain and the harassment of some American citizens on US soil. It doesn’t stop there. We’ll also examine how our prescription medications are closely linked to China. Did you know that more than 80% of the active pharmaceutical ingredients used in our medications are imported, with a significant portion coming from China? That dependence poses a serious risk to our health and national security.

Sexually explicit books available in public school libraries and teachers allowing students to secretly change their pronouns is becoming more and more common around the country. Many parents are now speaking out saying administrators have a woke agenda and are preying on our children. Imagine you’re in your child’s public-school library and find what appears to be sexually explicit pictures in books. Or imagine your child is secretly changing their pronouns at school with the encouragement of their teacher. This is happening around the country more and more, there are complaints, there are lawsuits, there are school board fights. Some parents might find it acceptable, but many are now speaking out saying administrators have a woke agenda and are preying on our children at a time when they are at their most vulnerable, while their brains are still developing. We’ll hear from a mom who won a lawsuit against her daughter’s school district for secretly transitioning her. We will also hear from guests on both sides of the debate of whether or not sexually explicit books should be allowed in school libraries and classrooms.

With his execution halted, will Robert Roberson finally have a chance at justice as new evidence, legislative allies, and a growing public outcry push for a retrial? Robert Roberson, who was set to be executed on October 17, 2024, for the 2002 death of his 2-year-old daughter Nikki, was granted a last-minute stay by the Texas Supreme Court. This unexpected reprieve followed a subpoena from Texas lawmakers requesting Roberson’s testimony before the House Criminal Justice Committee. Roberson’s conviction heavily relied on the now-disputed "shaken baby syndrome" diagnosis, but new evidence suggests Nikki’s death may have resulted from natural causes, like pneumonia. Both the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles and the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals previously declined to intervene, and the Supreme Court’s decision has sparked debate over the balance of power between Texas’s legislative and judicial branches.  The case has drawn national attention, bolstered by support from Dr. Phil, who testified before the Texas Legislature on Roberson’s behalf. The debate has also reignited scrutiny of forensic evidence standards and Texas’s 2013 "junk science" law as lawmakers and courts reconsider Roberson’s fate.  Dr. Phil speaks with Terre, a 2003 juror from Roberson’s trial who now believes in his innocence, stating she wasn’t presented with all the evidence. Roberson’s attorney, Gretchen Sween, insists that, despite opposition from the Attorney General’s office, he deserves a new trial. In support, Representatives Joe Moody (D), Lacey Hull (R), and Brian Harrison (R) have joined forces in a bipartisan coalition advocating for clemency and a retrial. Former Los Angeles prosecutor and news anchor Loni Coombs argues that if the Attorney General is confident in Roberson’s guilt, they should welcome a retrial to resolve lingering doubts once and for all.

From cats running on treadmills to monkey’s gambling, these are just some of the shocking ways the government is wasting YOUR money. Dr. Phil takes a hard-hitting look at the outrageous and often ludicrous spending of your tax dollars by our government. With national debt exceeding $34 trillion, the government's spending habits seem more reckless than ever, including $2.7 million on cats running on treadmills and $1.8 million on monkeys gambling. These examples are just a few of the questionable expenditures adding up to trillions of dollars, money that comes directly from the pockets of everyday Americans like you—small business owners, government employees, and hardworking citizens. Dr. Phil is joined by Tareka, a small business owner who says she needs money from the government to continue, but can’t get it, and Venisi, a three-time combat veteran who says that despite his service to the country he could not secure a loan for his small business.

Part 2: Dr. Phil goes to the Arizona and Texas borders looking for solutions. We are just a few days away from the 2024 election and there’s one topic that’s got everyone from Washington to Main Street talking…the border crisis. Both sides agree that work needs to be done to secure our southern border.

Dr. Phil first heads to Arizona to find out why there is a super-highway for illegal crossings down there. It’s been nicknamed the "Smuggler's Highway" …right on Interstate 10, which runs through California and Arizona. It’s become the most popular route for smugglers from Mexico. But Sheriff’s deputies in Pinal County, say it isn’t just cartels smuggling migrants…it’s American teenagers. Right in the thick of it all, Sheriff Mark Lamb says the drugs and people being trafficked through this "highway" are ending up in cities all across America. In fiscal year 2023 alone, Arizona had more than 775,000 illegal border crossers. That's a whole lot of people slipping through the cracks.

Sheriff Lamb tells Dr. Phil how he attempts to wrangle this situation. Plus Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels tells Dr. Phil that in the last 31 months, there have been 500 to 600 pursuits coming through his rural county. Dr. Phil talks to the Vice President of the Border Agent Council, Art Del Cueto, who says the media is not reporting much about Arizona’s border issues. Art says he has solutions if anyone would listen. And we head to Eagle Pass Texas where Dr. Phil spoke to several people working on the frontlines. He asked them THE hard questions that you won’t see anywhere else. And US Southern Border Expert, Jason Jones says human trafficking at the border is the largest US intelligence failure since 9-11. If you are looking for answers to your questions about the border, this episode has the answers. For more information: https://drphilpodcasts.com

Dr. Phil goes on a drive-along with Sheriffs on Arizona’s “Smuggler’s Highway”. This border situation has become a political powder keg, with both sides of the aisle using it as ammunition in this upcoming election in just a few weeks. But tonight, we’re focusing on the Arizona border. With 378 miles of shared border with Mexico, divided into the Tucson and Yuma sectors, Dr. Phil meets up with Sheriff Mark Lamb who offers to take him on a “drive-along” on that stretch of road where high-speed chases happen every day putting everyone on the road at risk. And sometimes, it ends tragically. Take the story of Wanda Sitoski. Her daughter, Valarie sits down with Dr. Phil to talk about how her mother’s life was cut short when a 16-year-old American smuggler running from the law crashed right into her…killing her instantly. And Dr. Phil meets Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels who says he and his team are trying to protect 6219 square miles of rugged terrain.

In a revealing conversation with Dr. Phil, Eric Lynn, former Senior Advisor to the Secretary of Defense and national security expert, dissected Iran's recent assault on Israel, showcasing the power of Israel's formidable defense systems, particularly the Iron Dome he championed. The attack, featuring ballistic missiles and drones, faltered against Israel's multi-tiered defense architecture, demonstrating the efficacy of U.S.-assisted Israeli technology.

Eric accentuates the intricacy of Israel's defense, encompassing the Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow systems, tailored to intercept threats at varying ranges and altitudes. He draws attention to the necessity for measured Israeli responses to deter future attacks without escalating tensions.

The Iranian strike, deemed a strategic misstep, inadvertently galvanized international support for Israel rather than isolating it. Eric delved into the genesis and capabilities of the Iron Dome, lauding its role in thwarting Gaza rockets. He advocated for targeted responses to diminish Iranian military prowess while mitigating civilian casualties, averting further escalation.

Both Eric and Dr. Phil concurred that Iran's assault failed to achieve its aims and potentially bolstered Israel's global standing.
