Chris Kayser and Timothy Andrés Pabon’s performances are nothing short of exceptional. Their voices seamlessly blend to create an engaging atmosphere, making the historical narrative feel both personal and authoritative. The pacing is perfect, balancing detailed information with emotional moments that keep you hooked from start to finish. However, some listeners might find the technical aspects of medical research a bit dry. Despite this minor critique, ‘Mad in America’ remains a crucial audiobook for anyone interested in mental health advocacy or the history of medicine. It’s both a powerful and thought-provoking listen.
