About

The Rush looks at the different ways our brains get the biochemical rush we crave. Sugar. Fame. Fear. Stimulants. Sex. We all have some sort of behaviour that triggers our high. Part Louis Theroux, part Morgan Spurlock, The Rush takes you on a thrilling, experiential adventure into how, and why, we crave what we do.
