You drank because you're a fucking addict. You drank because you have this disease in your head... If you're a true addict with the disease, you drank because you have this disease. There's no other reason, and if you're looking for one, you're just looking for justifications.

In this heartfelt season finale of Canadian Sober Eh!, host Dougie Fresh sits down with Scott to unpack the concept of addiction triggers. Scott's journey is a rollercoaster, starting from a privileged childhood, spiraling into bankruptcy and near jail time due to alcoholism, and ultimately finding hope through the 12-step program.
Scott's candid storytelling doesn't shy away from the dark moments but shines a light on the importance of doing the work and staying committed to recovery. He discusses how understanding his triggers has been a game-changer in maintaining his sobriety. This episode is more than just a conversation; it's a lifeline for anyone grappling with addiction.
Dougie Fresh wraps up the season with reflections and a heartfelt message of support, making this a must-listen for those seeking inspiration and practical advice on their sobriety journey.
