About this listen


This podcast, hosted by renowned addiction specialist Scott M Davis MD, explores the life and legacy of Michael Jackson. The life of this musical genius and pop cultural icon was cut short by an accidental overdose in 2009. This podcast highlights his addiction to painkillers at sedatives from early in his career. Eventually his music was affected, and public perceptions of his very controversial behaviors overshadowed the singer's once-idolized public persona.

Dr Davis focuses this podcast on the life and legacy of this artist and his struggles with addiction and mental illness. This podcast highlights the impacts that Michael Jackson and his struggles have had on pop music history. Broader conversations about addiction and mental health issues have grown louder as a result. His music still resonates with audiences today as does awareness of the dangers of addiction and the continued need for greater understanding and empathy.
