The Dr. Phil Podcast

American Wombs for Sale: The Rise of Chinese Birth Tourism  Is American citizenship quietly becoming a commodity—and who’s cashing in?     From luxury maternity homes to international surrogacy contracts, Dr. Phil explores the growing industries helping foreign nationals—especially from China—secure U.S. citizenship for their children. Criminal defense attorney John McNicholas shares the details of a high-profile federal case involving a birth tourism ring that made millions. Parham Zar, director of a leading surrogacy agency, explains why families are choosing American surrogates and what separates surrogacy from birth tourism. But policy analyst for the Heritage Foundation, Emma Waters warns the trend could carry hidden national security risks. With President Donald Trump renewing calls to end birthright citizenship through executive order, Dr. Phil unpacks the legal loopholes, ethical dilemmas, and rising debate over what it really means to be born an American.

When wellness, power, and controversy collide: Loni Coombs sits down with OneTaste founder Nicole Daedone      Dr. Phil and Merit TV's Loni Coombs are pulling back the curtain on a story that shocked the nation and ignited fierce debate. Once celebrated by celebrities and wellness gurus, Nicole Daedone’s OneTaste promised life-changing empowerment through “orgasmic meditation”—but was it truly a path to healing, or something much darker? In this exclusive interview, Loni Coombs sits down with Daedone and her high-profile attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, to ask the tough questions. With Daedone facing serious federal charges and a possible 20-year prison sentence, we dive into the heart of the controversy: is OneTaste a misunderstood revolution in women’s wellness, or a cautionary tale of power, sex, and exploitation?

Remote working made sense until it didn’t. We had little choice during the beginning of the pandemic. But those days are long gone. While some jobs justify working from home, most of us would be better off getting dressed, leaving the house, and working in a real office, where we have human interaction and a clear differentiation between work and home.

New rules allowing young athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness are stirring debate. How are lucrative deals impacting the game, ethics and players? Dr Phil discusses whether N.I.L is fair game.  From kindergarten through college, students at all levels are competing in athletics. New NCAA rules known as Name, Image, and Likeness allow student athletes to profit off their skill and popularity. The potential for youth stars to receive lucrative deals is changing the game. But is it for the better? Critics say N.I.L is eroding sportsmanship, creating entitled athletes and a new crop of 'sports manager' parents, pushing their kids to the brink for some bucks. Dr. Phil talks to N.I.L sensations the Cavinder Twins, a youth sports trainer, an ambitious basketball dad, and a former pro tennis player about the intense highs and harsh realities of competitive sports.

Death threats. Arson. Assassination attempts. A wave of political violence is sweeping across America — and it’s not coming from foreign enemies. It’s coming from us. This is The Real Story about homegrown threats—and how close we are to the breaking point.

How should we handle school threats and how far should law enforcement go to stop the next tragedy? What happens when school shooting threats—whether real or fake—spiral out of control? In 2025, schools across the U.S. have faced a surge in threats, often spread through social media, forcing law enforcement into action. Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood takes a controversial stance, arresting students as young as 11 years-old and publicly shaming them online. But is this tough-love approach the answer, or does it go too far? A mother fights back after her 6th grader son is perp-walked for what she calls a misunderstanding, while Parkland school shooting victim’s parents turn tragedy into action with a controversial video game designed to raise awareness.

President Trump didn’t make all the right decisions, but he can make every decision right.   And what he accomplished during his first 100 days is nothing short of impressive.   How do you feel about Trump's first 100 days as the 47th President of the United States?

In this eye-opening discussion, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an environmental advocate, addresses his first 100 days in office. He tackles the alarming rise of chronic diseases affecting over half the population and calls for urgent reforms in nutritional standards. RFK Jr. also dives into the urgent need for transparency in vaccine safety research and scrutinizes the influence of food additives on health. With a commitment to making America healthy again, he encourages public engagement and accountability in national health policies.
