“I just didn't want to run into him, right? So, I prayed this prayer, God, please don't let me know anybody in AA. And if I do know anybody there, please don't let me owe them money, right? And I remember we go to this AA meeting. I tell these guys, man, that looks like my dad. They say, you don't know who your dad is? I said, man, I've seen him one time in 26 years. It's back in one of those AA meetings, like an hour and a half, and it has a break, right? And he said, Jason? And I met my dad at my very first meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, right?
