Ep 390Gone Without Goodbye: The Truth About Suicide

Suicide touches every family, every community, and too often leaves loved ones with more questions than answers. Every 11 minutes, an American takes their own life. It's the leading cause of death among our youth. Why is nobody listening when our children are screaming for help from the edge? In harrowing cases, children have reached a desperate breaking point, crying out for intervention—yet some schools remained silent and the adults in the room failed to act. How do these tragedies unfold, and what does it say about the systems meant to protect our youth? Dr. Phil will peel back the layers of a devastating failure and search for answers that might save many more lives.

Ep 388Top Secrets: The CIA Torture Whistleblower John Kiriakou

Would you risk it all to expose the truth? Discover the extraordinary story of John Kiriakou. Dr. Phil welcomes John Kiriakou, a former CIA counterterrorism officer and best-selling author, who sacrificed his freedom to expose one of the government's darkest secrets. Kiriakou played a pivotal role in counterterrorism after 9/11 but made headlines when he revealed the CIA's use of waterboarding, denouncing it as torture. This brave act led to his indictment under the Espionage Act—a law meant to punish spies—and landed him in prison for 23 months. In this thought-provoking episode, John shares his story, from his work in intelligence to his fight for transparency and ethical treatment of whistleblowers. As the recipient of the Joe A. Callaway Award for Civic Courage, Kiriakou reflects on the moral dilemmas of his career and the ongoing battle to champion human rights. With Dr. Phil, he explores the critical question: What happens when exposing the truth comes at the ultimate personal cost? Thank you to our sponsors!

You know the saying: it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt. Well, what if someone gets shot? Across the country, high school seniors are diving headfirst into a nationwide craze called Senior Assassin—a "game" involving toy guns, secret missions and, sometimes, real-world consequences. From students leaping walls and dodging water balloons to 911 calls, armed civilians, and police pulling real triggers on toy-wielding teens, what's meant to be harmless fun is spiraling into chaos. With cash prizes on the line and paranoia in the air, the line between game and danger is vanishing fast. "Senior Assassin"... fun until it's not.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ep 364Teacher's Mysterious Death: Was Ellen Greenberg Murdered? Part 2

Part 2: On January 26th, 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her apartment with twenty stab wounds to her head, neck, and back, as well as eleven bruises in various stages of healing on her right arm, leg, and abdomen. The medical examiner initially ruled it a homicide, but after a secret meeting with police, he changed the cause of death to suicide. Ellen's fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, alleged that he had gone down to the gym in their apartment building for 30-45 minutes and was unable to get back into their apartment. He called, texted, and yelled into the apartment before asking the building manager for help getting into the apartment, only to find out the door was latched from the inside. After an hour of this, Sam busted through the door and found Ellen's body on the floor. He called 911, and then he moved on with his life. He's now married with two children and is a sports TV producer. Ellen's parents, Joshua and Sandee Greenberg, fought for justice for 14 years. Just this month of February, they settled two civil cases with the city of Philadelphia and remain devastated and angry over the mishandling of their only child's death. The city of Philadelphia has also agreed the current medical examiner will reopen Ellen's case and, look at the physical and medical evidence of her cause of death and draw their own conclusion. This type of challenge to the medical examiner is unprecedented in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania- and could change state law in the future. Attorney Guy D'Andrea, who personally investigated the case for the Philadelphia DA in 2015, will discuss the huge inconsistencies in the evidence he found at the crime scene and in the autopsy. Our very own Nancy Grace, who has been following the Greenberg's case for months and is releasing a book about Ellen's death, will also join to dissect the case and discuss the relationship she's built with Joshua and Sandee along the way.

Ep 360Swipe Up To Skip College?

Viral fame or a fancy degree? Dr. Phil asks the question, is higher education still worth it? Dr. Phil tackles the pressing question facing young Americans and their families: Is higher education worth the cost? As tuition prices soar and student debt hits record highs, with the average federal loan debt over $37,000, alternatives to traditional college are gaining appeal. With a backdrop of a 2023 Wall Street Journal survey revealing 56% of Americans question the value of college, Dr. Phil delves into this seismic shift in career aspirations and the path to fulfilling your dreams. Joining the discussion is Giada, as social media influencer, who says she wants to forgo college, to be a social media "star," instead.

Ep 359[Encore] The Deadly Trend Takeover

Dr. Phil is discussing a dangerous trend law enforcement calls a "Takeover," which is an event organized on social media with the sole intention of gathering as many teens and young adults as possible, to literally "takeover" city and suburban streets, parks, malls, and houses to party in for profit. Law Enforcement reports that often these events result in businesses ransacked, and neighborhoods destroyed from chaotic behavior, reckless driving, and violence that ensues, many times leading to arrests and death. Dr. Phil will speak with the mother and teenage girlfriend of a 17-year-old boy named, Landyn, who was shot and killed at what has been described as a Teen Takeover party. Dr. Phil will speak with Bexar County Sheriff, Javier Salazar, who is investigating Landyn's murder, and reports that every weekend his office is responding to drug and alcohol fueled takeovers organized by online hosts, and attended by teens, who are armed with guns. Leading up tonight's episode, Dr. Phil's team worked to gather intel in order to track alleged takeover party hosts in the Bexar County and discovered information about a potential takeover party. Watch what happens when the Bexar County Sheriff's Office allowed Dr. Phil's cameras to follow them to that party, which resulted in numerous arrests, and firearms seized.

Social media trends stirring controversy: The "Trad Wife" movement is gaining millions of followers; critics call it regressive. Plus, fit influencers are pushing steroids to young men, raising health concerns. Social media trends can change drastically in just a year, and two movements are now capturing widespread attention—and controversy. The "Trad Wife" phenomenon, where women embrace traditional homemaking roles and step away from the workforce, has surged in popularity, amassing millions of followers and nearly 100 million views. But while some celebrate the lifestyle, critics argue it reinforces outdated gender roles and diminishes women's societal standing. Meanwhile, young men across the country are being drawn into a more dangerous trend—following fitness influencers who promote performance-enhancing drugs like steroids. A study from the Center for Countering Digital Hate reveals that in just three years, videos pushing steroids to teens and young men have been viewed over 420 million times. As these two trends gain momentum, they spark heated debates about gender, health, and the influence of social media.

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.

Ep 355Uncertified and Unqualified? Who is Teaching Our Children?

A discussion about the impact that uncertified teachers can have on a child's learning and education. Last year, nearly 400,000 uncertified teachers were reported to be employed in school districts across the country, largely to combat a teacher shortage. In addition, it has been reported that many states have lowered the standards and requirements teachers once needed to enter the classroom. Tonight, Dr. Phil will discuss the impact these solutions could have on American students. Dr. Phil will speak with Amber Shields, a former principal and non-profit education leader who claims districts have prioritized filling teaching vacancies over the education of the students, which can result in months of lost learning. Dr. Phil will also speak with Jessenia who says she he was hired as a long-term substitute without even a formal interview, credentials, or prior experience. Jessenia admits, a student truly passionate about a particular subject could probably teach the class better than she could. Plus, Dr. Phil will speak with Aurora who says she was stunned when she received an email from her son's principal that his 6th grade science teacher is uncertified and had been instructing him for months. Aurora says she had no clue that schools were even allowed to hire a teacher that had no certification, and says there is nothing she can do, because her son is required to take the class, and the district is not going to fire the teacher.

Ep 349Should Homelessness Be Criminalized?

The debate over solutions to homelessness heats up; is criminalization an answer? Grants Pass is a smaller community, nestled in the beautiful backdrop of southern Oregon, that has many residents claiming there has been an explosion of homelessness, leaving their idyllic community unsafe. Grants Pass has gained national attention because of a court case between local homeless individuals and the city. At the heart of the matter is whether it is cruel and unusual punishment for the city to arrest or fine people for sleeping outside in public, even with just a pillow or blanket, when there is no safe shelter available. The case has gone all the way to the Supreme Court, with a decision coming soon, and potentially having national implications on whether cities can criminalize those with no other option but to sleep in public. Dr. Phil sent his team to Grants Pass to speak with residents and people experiencing homelessness to see firsthand what is going on. Dr. Phil will speak with residents Missy and Brock who claim the rise in homelessness has left many residents scared due to the rampant drug use, crime, and even physical assaults on residents. The debate over whether to criminalize people experiencing homelessness sleeping in public heats up when Dr. Phil invites two experts on opposite sides of the issue; Donald Whitehead (Executive Director of the National Coalition for the Homeless) and Matt Mackowiak (Co-founder of Save Austin Now). Plus, Dr. Phil speaks with Dion, a young man who is currently experiencing homelessness and says criminalizing the things needed to survive on the street is not the answer.

Shockingly low literacy rates, underfunded schools, and overworked teachers are creating a perfect storm, leaving millions of students behind academically. Dr. Phil sits down with educators, parents, and a former senior official in the U.S. Dept. of Education to uncover what's REALLY happening in our public schools. Samantha, a former special ed elementary school teacher, says all she wanted to do since she was a child was work in education. But after experiencing the reality of teaching in the modern day, she says she will never step foot in a classroom again. Also, disgruntled parents, Mark and Val, noticed their two kids being underserved in their public schools. Their son was falling behind in reading and math, and their daughter was unchallenged. But they didn't know until the pandemic forced them to look at what their kids were doing in school. They decided to pull them out of school, sell their house, and "world school" them. Justin, a former principal, reveals how schools are being pressured to pass students even if they don't show up to class. Jeanne Allen, the CEO of the Center of Education Reform, shares her 30-year battle with the education system and how she's trying to change the "factory-like" public school system into a more productive one.

Dr. Phil discusses a chronic illness epidemic sweeping the U.S. with Calley Means, of Truemed; Dr. Cate Shanahan, nutritionist; and Jillian Michaels, fitness expert. The health of American children is under attack- and its biggest threat is a basic need, food. Research is showing that ultra-processed foods are linked to the chronic illness epidemic that is sweeping our nation. More than 40% of school-aged children and adolescents have at least one chronic health condition, such as asthma, obesity, and behavior/learning problems. Less than 1% of children eat ideal meals. Ultra-processed foods currently make up nearly 60% of what a typical adult eats- and nearly 70% of what children eat. Dr. Phil speaks to Calley Means, co-founder of Truemed; Dr. Cate Shanahan, board-certified MD and nutritionist; and Jillian Michaels, a fitness expert and trainer to weigh-in on this uniquely American crisis.
