Bob Forrest and Chuk on Recovery, Humility, and the Urgent Need for Change
Kids are dying and nobody's paying attention...the sober community doesn't do a fucking thing except for unwelcome them when they come once in a while, hat in hand, kind of looking for a solution.
Ever wondered what it takes to truly make a difference in the fight against drug addiction? In this episode of Bob Forrest's 'Don't Die Podcast', Bob and Chuk dive into the pressing need to tackle drug addiction head-on in America. With their trademark honesty, they share personal stories of addiction and the ongoing battle for sobriety. They don't hold back, discussing the highs and lows of their journeys, and the critical role of humility and community support in recovery.
Bob also takes a hard look at the recovery industry, politicians, and big pharma, shedding light on how these elements often exacerbate the problem rather than solve it. The conversation gets real as they explore the culture of Alcoholics Anonymous and the concept of 'young old'. It's a raw, unfiltered discussion that leaves you thinking about the urgent need for collective action.
Tune in for a candid talk that blends humor with hard truths, and offers a powerful reminder: kids are dying, and it's up to all of us to pay attention and take action.
