If 2017 has taught us anything it is that there is no smoke without fire. It has been the year that educated us on the importance of listening to people, no matter how obscure they sound. For example, this time last year we’d have questioned anyone who suggested that Kevin Spacey was guilty of sexually harassing young men. But we are wiser now, or just less cynical, after a year of being hounded by horrifying headlines and scary stories.

So when several former guests of Dr. Phil came forward to say that they were lured into taking drugs and drinking alcohol before appearing on the show, we couldn’t help but listen attentively to what they had to say.

The guests, all former addicts, claim that they were invited on to the show so that they could be publicly treated for their problems, free of charge. Of course, this is exactly how the show works. But, part of the process you don’t see is where the show’s crew allegedly ply the participants with substances to ensure they’re intoxicated before appearing on air. Thus, making their condition appear much worse than it actually is in order to generate a dramatic transformation process.

According to former guest, Todd Herzog who appeared on the show back in 2013, his life was put at “risk” by the show. Herzog horrified the show’s viewers when he appeared on the set outrageously drunk, blowing an alarming 0.263 on a breathalyzer test -three times over the drink-drive limit.

Herzog, who at the time was battling an alcohol addiction, claims that he arrived at the show’s Los Angeles studio stone-cold sober. But, this quickly changed when he discovered a full bottle of Smirnoff vodka in his dressing room – a bottle that he claims was intentionally planted to entice him.
