content we give you number 10 the todd
Herzog incident now making a first
appearance on television in 2007 is
former survivor China winner todd Herzog
would make an eventual return to reality
TV as a guest on dr. Phil in 2013 the
visit was intended to help cure Todd of
his severe alcoholism and depression
which was the case for a brief moment
Todd would eventually suffer a relapse
and was reportedly admitted into a
hospital with a blood alcohol level of
0.5% and performed an update segment on
dr. Phil in 2016 for the sake of getting
those ratings up nearly two years after
the former survivor winner openly
accused dr. Phil and his production
staff of endangering his health by
leaving a bottle of vodka and xanax in
his room prior to the appearance on the
show - apparently calm his nerves
so Todd Herzog was on dr. Phil show
because he had an alcohol addiction and
he claims that after he traveled to Los
Angeles to be on the show he went into
the green room and found that there was
a bottle of vodka there he also claimed
that he was given drugs right before he
went on air any of these allegations
were quickly denied by a spokesman of
the show but it's left everyone
questioning the possibilities of other
guests as well
Linda who wants to know how she can
convince her husband at his time for
their dog to get out of their bed number
9 the lawsuits dr. Phil's no stranger to
the odd lawsuit or two or even dozens
yeah there's a good amount of them out
there one case out of 2011 between him
and his wife Robyn along with a woman
named Janet Harris found accusations of
Phil's dog biting her arm and hand
causing infection and injury in a suit
from 2014 former guests Matthew Barasch
was going after dr. Phil for 100 million
dollars for purposely making him look
crazy during his segment I don't doubt
for for one second I don't think he's
part of a conspiracy I don't think like
that I respect every single thing that
he probably did to come here but he's
not but what I'm trying to say is like
he referred to that wire which really
bothered me that wire was never supposed
to go to you it's in a law it's an alarm
system wire okay so I know that where
he'd talk about him being stalked by the
police one of the more bizarre cases
though comes from 2009 a civil suit
between Phil and Shirley ray do a 56
year old woman who had accused the
psychologist of attempted brainwashing
and sexual assault after her experience
at the short-lived dr. Phil house one of
the more well-known lawsuits however
comes from Thomas ratio who sued phil
mcgraw for defamation making him look
bad after their talks of the 1995 OJ
Simpson case on the show dr. Mike Moreno
has a number 8 false advertising now
it's hard to remember a time when dr.
Phil wasn't a common household name
which to be fair really helped him out
in the case as dr. Phil's talk show was
gaining momentum back in 2003 he also
endorsed numerous products including
weight
supplements for the first time in 10
years I have written a weight-loss book
it is called the they were nothing short
of a gimmick to make a quick buck and
when the FDA began to crackdown in an
investigation of the product Phil McGraw
took him off the market immediately now
pretty suspect if you ask me the
self-proclaimed doctor learned his
lesson two years later when in 2005
customers would file a lawsuit against
the TV personality for wrongfully
promoting a useless product that had no
benefit and charging people a $120
monthly subscription fee the group
eventually settled on a ten point five
million dollar deal but the damage had
already been done the man got lucky
though just imagine the outcome if the
story had come out in the last five or
so years family is very very important
extended family is very very important
and I think what you do is you start
taking small steps number seven the
doctor on demand now it goes without
saying that what we can do online
nowadays with just the push of a button
is pretty remarkable
yet all we do is order food online for
delivery anyway one concept which was
touched on in 2013 was what if we could
visit a doctor from the comfort of our
own home basically what doctor on-demand
does it's an app and it allows you to
push a button and within a matter of
seconds you are face to face with a
board-certified physician the idea was
there don't get me wrong but it holds a
lot of unanswered questions and overall
just poor execution along with several
others dr. Phil would launch and promote
on his show doctor on demand a website
and phone app where patients could
communicate through FaceTime or webcam
if they couldn't make an appointment but
it did have its quirks namely the
chances of being wrongfully diagnosed
were off the charts
pun intended then there was the money
grabbing $40 charge per visits plus any
other fees which turned away users and
basically made the app obsolete to other
countries with universal health care
like Canada your brilliant doctor not
exactly what I just tell people to get
real I'm not even a psychologist I'm an
electrician
number six he's not an actual doctor
now don't let the name fool you while
dr. Philip McGraw has done his fair
share of work to earn his doctoral
degree in psychology he still remains
unlicensed so legally he can't really
prescribe or practice medicine or even
be a psychologist off screen it's kind
of a stretch really to allow him to do
what he does on television already
because sure he studied the material for
several years and we shouldn't doubt his
knowledge but it's clear in his segments
that he doesn't have much of a clue on
how to speak react to and connect with
his guests it's all for show literally
to get a rise out of people berating
patients on live television isn't what a
trained psychologist would do and in the
end though dr. Phil has successfully
helped some people a proper licensed
doctor would probably be the healthier
alternative for serious medical care
if you did not do it you push an
equation I'll ask you is it tension show
if it was and if you guys were hardened
you know somebody had given her a big
drug I'm sure number five the kaupo
controversy now it's been noted in
several lawsuits against dr. Phil that
he's been known to edit in or edit out
certain parts of the show to make it
seem
suspensful one of the more popular cases
comes from 2005 and six when two
brothers Deepak and Satish kaupo were
fraudulently made to look like the two
main suspects in the case of a missing
teenager Natalie Holloway
now while the video showed and analyzed
during the segment makes them out to be
active criminals the original copy held
by police would say otherwise
[Music]
she all had sex with Lord she did in the
dr. Phil Tate the Dutch tape however if
you listen closely and according to them
she says the answer is no she didn't in
other words the Noah's clipped off and
the iddyn is clipped off so she no she
didn't is converted to she did the
Reuben police say the cowpoke's heralds
don't I beg the chief investigator told
me eventually a ruling was made in favor
of dr. Phil though and he wouldn't have
to pay any charges there is somebody in
this audience who doesn't think this is
wrong then somewhere there is a village
missing their idiot number four
controverse the mentally ill not
everyone can always find the right words
to say but when it comes to dr. Phil
there are times where it feels like he's
not even trying in 2013 during a live
episode dr. Phil read out loud a letter
that was mailed in by a viewer looking
for advice in the letter it also read a
concern that they could be perceived as
insane for the way they're obsessing
over another man sandy I am thankful for
my health and everybody that stood
beside me through the years when I
didn't know if I would see the next day
well Aileen as Claudia says too bad you
didn't drop dead now I guess as a way of
sparking conversation on the topic dr.
Phil proclaimed that insane people suck
on rocks and bark at the moon and in a
way it kind of worked
people began talking more about dr. Phil
just in a negative way his doctorate was
called into question seeing a psychology
as a skill and should be really more
sensitive toward these types of terms
and granted Phil has learned to be more
let's say accepting of some of his more
recent guests but there are still times
where he's referred to them as crazy and
psychotic
ah the beautiful vegan Messiah number
three the exploits it takes about one or
two episodes to get the gist of what
it's all really about problem discussion
discipline humiliation and then we see
in about a year whether Phil segments
helped the guest or not it's a simple
premise but with such an inhumane way of
psychologically evaluating a person you
really have to wonder how does dr. Phil
maintain such high ratings because all
of it is made for our own amusement
that's why the guests are made to feel
shameful and embarrassed of their
situation to add some type of shock
value and allow the audience to laugh it
isn't the most ideal example but it's
like that freak show that you go to see
at the circus dr. Phil exploits this
because it's what works even if it's
morally wrong and doesn't really help
anyone on today that the meeting was
meant to stay private that's wrong with
dr. Phil's statement is that he made a
statement the family basically extended
an invitation of trust for him to come
in as a resource to support them not to
go out and make public statements let me
be clear I certainly do not apologize
for trying to help this family or this
girl in trouble if I had it to do over
again I probably wouldn't say a word I
wouldn't make a statement to anybody
about anything
number two helping Brittany
confidentiality man never heard of it
said dr. Phil if you were a fan of pop
drama or the news and so on in 2008 odds
are you heard all about Britney Spears
frightening state of health following a
public meltdown and while dr. Phil
appeared to have good intentions and
helping Britney and her family at the
time from the public's perspective it
was anything but that experts considered
Phil's methods to be highly
inappropriate and was subsequently put
on watch by the board of psychology for
his alleged exploitation of the
situation dr. Phil has of course
defended himself however many continue
to question whether
his priority was publicity or genuine
help everything has to be by Ryan's wear
I know it Shoko after me like if I'd
sober like I hate me shows try to hate
me and I got like Dodds
number one catched me outside when it
came to the demographic of free teens
and young adults dr. Phil wasn't exactly
popular or even really known that was
until Danielle cashed me outside how
about that burr goalie came around at
least she prominently became the next
big meme and social media sensation and
we have dr. Phil to thank or to even
hate for it depending on how you look at
it and while the meme did drastically
boost dr. Phil's ratings for a moment
the latter is also a reason for the
recent drop in the same ratings now
there was another spike with Danielle's
reappearance but otherwise the hype has
faded and with that said that concludes
why dr. Phil's career is basically going
down the tubes feel free to comment what
