Warm Greetings All,
In this podcast, our guest is Russell Razzaque, M.D., a practicing psychiatrist based in London, England. He earned his medical degree from the University of London and is a member of the UK Royal College of Psychiatrists. Dr Razzaque is also a writer and media commentator. He has written numerous columns across various publications, including The Guardian, The Telegraph, and The Independent. He regularly provides psychological opinions on international television news channels, including the BBC and SKY. He is particularly interested in US politics, and his contributions to the US media include op-ed pieces for The Wall Street Journal and USA Today.
Just a few months ago, he began a YouTube channel that explores progressive politics, philosophical insights, and mental health perspectives on policies, economics, and current events. He has only published 66 videos but has over 100K subscribers and seven million views.

This is the first time we have hosted a guest whose content relies exclusively on a YouTube channel. I look forward to his new videos, which are often short and to the point (8 to 15 minutes) and blend current events with analysis from a mental health professional… right up my alley.
I hope you check out his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@russrazz/featured
Peace,
Pat
