Spare: Prince Harry in conversation with Dr. Gabor Maté

Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, had an online talk with Dr. Gabor Maté about his new book Spare and I watched the “live talk.” The talk was ok and really, there was no way to tell if it was live or not. Nothing new, no new or good gossip, and really just kind of dull. Maté diagnosed Harry as having ADD, anxiety and panic disorder, depression, PTSD, substance use/abuse (drugs and booze), etc. all from reading his book, as they had met only one other time. Hello… the book was ghostwritten and not very good, so that’s a very bizarre way to diagnose someone.

Here is the official blurb:

“Random House, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, and Indigo Books & Music are proud to present Spare: Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex in conversation with Dr. Gabor Maté, renowned speaker and bestselling author of The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture.
