I'm not a hero for going to somebody's house and pulling a crack pipe out of their hand and hugging them and bringing them to rehab. I just don't think you're a hero for doing your job.
Ever wondered what happens when you mix rock star antics with real talk about recovery? In this episode of Bob Forrest's Don't Die Podcast, Bob, Chuk, and Mike take you on a rollercoaster of stories and insights. They kick things off with a nostalgic trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the days when phones had cords and sciatica was a new, painful experience for Bob. The laughs continue with some rather candid bathroom mishaps that only Bob could make hilarious.
But it's not all fun and games. The conversation takes a serious turn as they dive into the dark side of social media and why Bob decided to ditch Instagram. They also touch on the opioid crisis, debunking myths about suboxone as a cure-all for heroin addiction. Bob shares his personal encounters with speed and the wild world of rock star drug culture, offering a raw look at the highs and lows of addiction.
The trio doesn't shy away from the complexities of relationships in sobriety either. They explore the tricky terrain of codependency, emphasizing the importance of setting boundaries and knowing when to say enough is enough. This episode is a blend of humor, hard truths, and heartfelt advice that will leave you both entertained and enlightened.
Whether you're navigating your own recovery journey, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the intersection of music and addiction, this episode has something for you. Tune in for a dose of reality wrapped in wit and wisdom from three guys who have seen it all.
