Dr. Joy Brown is not *anything* like Dr. Laura.

While I don't frequent the 'shrink shows'....I don't think I have ever heard
Dr. Joy Brown refer to a caller disrespectfully....or fling an offhand
insult.

I believe Dr. Joy Brown is a REAL therapist...not a Dr. of "Physiology" (The
right bone's connected to the left bone....)....as with Dr. Laura.

Dr. Joy Brown is a 'radio shrink' of the old school, a kinder gentler
host....which is probably why she has not gotten much attention as Dr.
Laura.  Sad, huh?

I would suggest you give Dr. Joy Brown a listen...and then make up your
mind.  (For those a little south of WTSN, WCAP in Lowell carries her show
late mornings.)

BTW...Dr. Joy Brown has Boston roots!  I remember her on WITS...before she
went to the West Coast...and then ended up in NY on the WOR network.
