Thanks for me on new bff :) Loved our conversation!

[heyjessieraye]

Two of my favorite women combined. My heart is exploding. The day is glorious.

Mayim's podcast is great! Seriously check it out!

If I had 1 wish, I would desperately wish to see more empathy in the world. There’s a whole lot wrong in this world, but a little humanity and kindness can go a long way. You make ripples in the universe. Why not make them amazing?💐

[britturk]

I love Mayim she has more intelligence in her finger nail than I do in my brain but she seems like a wonderfully grounded human being with a great ability to converse without making us feel tiny.
Can I also say that Drew is just adorably warm in this show.

[josievaccaro]

I absolutely adore Mayim. Such strength. Such awareness.

[pizzaroll]

Mayim’s podcast is a must to listen to. Even if you cannot personally relate to the topic, it will help you understand others that may have it. It’ll definitely help reduce the stigma around mental health especially, to disorders.

I love that you both share with us about mental health. My mom suffered from depression and in the late 60's - Through the seventies you didn't talk about it, brush it under the rug it will go away. So thank you both so much.

[lornatw]

Love this lady 💗 the pair of them actually!

[SonjaDawn]

I work for a mental health organisation called NAMI-NYC and speak about my mental health experiences regularly as part od the IOOV programme. It is the best therapy, learning how to talk about my experiences and being able to do so came from doing it and practicing regularly. AND people actually want to listen and share their own stories, it's life saving.

Great job Drew! Excellent interview. I love when the interviewer listens and gives their guest space to answer questions like you just did.

[tammystockley-loughlin]

I remember when we as a society started talking about some tough subjects...breast cancer, sex abuse, addiction and mental illness. Because I am aware of these things I have better coping skills...my mother and grandmother were alcoholics...I conscientiously chose not to drink often or much. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social crisis

[jixxter]

I love you both. I just started bawling because that is so true. I've never been this age with kids this age and today is different then any other day I've lived before. Dang. I love mayims podcast and I love Drew's show. Everything I need

[kellypryb]

@Drew Barrymore EXACTLY, I've wanted to cry so many times, about new car broke down to out of work, but so many people have had so much more, I feel like I don't have the right to cry!!!

[MindBodyMom]

The new best friend part made me smile so big, I absolutely loved this and will def check this podcast out! Thank you!

[FluffyMoonRabbit]

A couple weeks ago, my 10 year son asked, what movies did you watch as a kid? So, that night, we watched Beaches, and I cried the whole time, and he was confused the whole time, but it was still a wonderful experience. This interview between 2 amazing, genuine, honest mommas really made my day. Thank you 🙏❤️🙂

[vnmtwcb]

What a sincere conversation by 2 sincere women.

[jsmithsemper]

This was so sweet & uplifting!!!! Great vibes, glad I finally came across y'all! Drew's set design is fantastic, so pretty, love it!

[cherylsibson]

Mayim Bialik is right, we wake up to a new breathe each and every day I'm still figuring this out too.

[marycase]

I woke up...and my breath was returned to me!! Wonderful, I will use this for my T’ai Chi classes when we share the positive.☯️ Thank you, Mayim!
