In this episode, Dr. Phil engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Clayton English and Greg Glod, hosts of Lava for Good's “The War on Drugs,” shedding light on the critical need for a transformation in our approach to drug addiction-- a departure from punitive measures towards healthcare-driven strategies. Continuing the exploration of societal challenges, Dr. Phil then delves into a dynamic conversation with Laura Nirider, an attorney and co-director of the Center on Wrongful Convictions, and David Thompson, an expert in interrogation training and certified forensic interviewer. Together, they navigate the intricate intersection of legal defense and law enforcement training.
