I think you got to go right to the fucking source, which is the drug addict themselves, and you've got to tell them the fucking truth of it.
Ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes of addiction recovery? In Episode Ninety Eight of 'Don't Die Podcast', Bob Forrest, Chuk, and Mike dive deep into the gritty truths of abstinence-based treatments and the recovery industry. They don't sugarcoat anything, bringing an honest, sometimes brutal perspective on what works and what doesn't in addiction treatment. Bob's no-nonsense approach shines through as he insists on the importance of telling addicts the unvarnished truth.
The conversation also explores how boredom can fuel addiction, the vital role live music plays in children's lives, and how media shapes our views on addiction. Bob and Chuk aren't afraid to call out politicians and big pharma for their roles in the addiction crisis. They even touch on lighter topics like 'the junkie teddy bear' and Syd's Big Mac hat, adding a touch of humor to their serious discussion.
If you're looking for an unfiltered take on addiction recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
