After his article came out, other people who stutter began reaching out to Hendrickson and sharing their stories with him. Their experiences prompted him to begin writing about his own experiences with stuttering. In a new book, Hendrickson allows readers deep inside his life — reflecting on his battles with depression, bullying, substance abuse and more. Along the way, he investigates the science of stuttering and controversial efforts to cure it. John Hendrickson joins us this Friday at noon.
