Lori Marie: Finding Comedy and Sobriety on Stage

The biggest advice I can give any person that's newly sober and just what I've learned is: just don't a lot of the time, you just don't need to do anything.
Ever wondered if you can still be funny without a drink in hand? Lori Marie, a stand-up comic and host of 'Me and My More Successful Friends', faced this very challenge. In this episode of 'The Drunkalogues', Lori sits down with host Nick Morton to share her rollercoaster journey from addiction to recovery, and how she navigated the world of comedy sober.
She opens up about her early struggles with drinking, the impact it had on her high school years, and how addiction nearly derailed her creative dreams. Lori’s story is both heart-wrenching and inspiring as she recounts the pivotal moments that led her to sobriety. She talks candidly about the importance of service in her recovery, offering practical advice for those new to sobriety. Her key takeaway? Sometimes, doing nothing is okay, but helping others can be a lifeline.
Tune in for a mix of laughter, tears, and invaluable lessons from someone who’s walked the tough road to recovery and come out the other side stronger—and funnier—than ever.
