Surviving The Perfect Storm: No Assurance Of Insurance As wildfires, hurricanes, and floods repeatedly devastate areas of the U.S. a focus on the nationwide insurance crisis as premiums skyrocket and companies abandon entire communities leaving homeowners forced to choose between coverage and survival. The Los Angeles wildfires decimated ten of thousands of acres, killed at least 10, and forced the evacuation of more than 180,000 people Dr. Phil focuses on a devastating crisis that’s hitting close to home. Homeowners in California and across the nation are left helpless and vulnerable as insurance premiums skyrocket, leaving many with a heartbreaking choice: pay for coverage, or put food on the table. First, a woman whose parents nearly lost everything in the Los Angeles wildfires, she says it’s a miracle that they didn’t because no insurance company would cover them, and they were without insurance. Then, Dr. Phil speaks with Kristy and Michael, who know this reality all too well after losing two homes in the last six years to California wildfires. Now, they’re trying to rebuild for the second time. Plus, Dr. Phil talks to Macie and Caleb, who couldn’t afford flood insurance due to rising costs. When Hurricane Helene hit, they watched helplessly as floodwaters destroyed their forever home. Macie says it felt like a thief came in the night and stole everything. Dr. Phil also hears from Jamie, who was shocked when her home insurance was unexpectedly canceled due to wildfire risks. Now, her family lives in constant fear of losing everything. Dr. Phil will also speak with attorney at law Steven Bush who says that insurance companies are in it for the profit and offer tips for homeowners seeking coverage in these uncertain times.

Los Angeles County District Attorney and Sheriff talk to Dr. Phil about charges against looters and arsonists Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman talks to Dr. Phil about charging 10 individuals in four crimes committed during the devastating wildfires. Nine people are facing felony charges in connection to residential burglaries in the cities of Pacific Palisades and Altadena, and a separate defendant has been charged with arson for intentionally starting a fire in the city of Azusa. “These crimes are appalling and represent a direct attack on our community during a time of unprecedented loss and vulnerability,” District Attorney Hochman said. “Let me be clear: If you exploit this tragedy to prey on victims of these deadly fires, we will find you and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.”  The felony charges were the result of a multi-agency collaboration that underscores the strength of local, state, and federal partnerships. Law enforcement agencies, including the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department; Los Angeles Police Department; Los Angeles County Fire Arson Unit; U.S. Attorney’s Office; Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) collaborated closely with the District Attorney’s Office to bring these suspects to justice. And Sheriff Robert Luna talks to Dr. Phil about his request for additional National Guard members to help his team. Looting and theft remain a top concern for the sheriff's department as well as online scams. Plus a man who says thanks to strangers his home in Altadena was saved.

From romance to rage, adoration online to in-person obsession, this episode is a cautionary tale about stalking. Stalking stories have captured the country’s attention with hugely popular shows that follow encounters that spark fixation but it’s not always fiction. We’ll explore the challenges victims often face seeking safeguards while living in fear of potential physical harm. Is a restraining or protective order just a piece of paper? Or a powerful first tool for the victim’s protection? We’ll get an inside look in the mind of stalkers/abusers. A handsome, young, fitness trainer is being stalked by a female stranger who tells us why she won’t stop. We’ll meet a woman who at just 18 ended a summer fling that drove the man to intense harassment and murder of a different woman and we’ll meet a father whose daughter was killed by her ex with an ax, despite a protective order.

Tune in tonight to hear just how experts believe these drugs might hold the key to not just battling but CURING PTSD, depression, and other mental health issues in veterans and active-duty service members. We’re discussing Psychedelic drugs to treat veterans and active duty members suffering from PTSD and other mental health issues. 67% of veterans who participated in a new trial treated with MDMA say it cured or lessened their PTSD. They say it’s time to drop the stigma and accept the fact that psychedelic drugs DO have healing powers that some even call – a miracle. We'll meet one of these veterans who says the therapy literally saved his life. Thank you to our sponsor: Beam: Visit https://ShopBeam.com/DrPhil and use code DRPHIL for up to 40% off."
