Evive Live
Evive Live is a conversation series at the intersection of gambling harm and behavioral health. Hosted by Adam Lyons (The Modern Meeting) and Christina Cook (The Broke Girl Society), each episode features clinicians, researchers, treatment providers, peer specialists, and people in recovery having the honest conversations the field needs — about what gambling disorder really looks like, what treatment actually works, and what it takes to build a recovery that lasts.

Adam and Christina sit down with Dr. Tim Fong — Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at UCLA, Co-Director of the UCLA Gambling Studies Program, and Evive advisory board member — for one of the most clinically substantive conversations the show has had yet.
Dr. Fong traces his path into addiction medicine, shares his own relationship with gambling, and unpacks the emerging treatments reshaping the field: psilocybin, GLP-1 receptor agonists, and TMS. He also addresses why shame around money makes gambling disorder uniquely hard to disclose, what providers are still getting wrong, and why recovery technology like Evive represents something genuinely different. Essential listening for anyone working at the intersection of behavioral health and gambling harm.
