Judge Kavanaugh and Alcohol: A Closer Look at the Controversy
Many of us who have been around alcohol recovery for a while know that it is not our place to call anyone else an alcoholic. Only they can reach such a thing for themselves.
The Senate hearings for Judge Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination have been a media whirlwind, not just for the sexual assault allegations but also for questions about his drinking habits. In this episode of the Real Sobriety Podcast, Robert McClellan digs into these claims and considers whether Kavanaugh might have a drinking problem. While pundits and professors have had their say, McClellan stresses that only Kavanaugh can truly identify if he has an issue with alcohol.
He shares his own experiences with drinking and warns against the dangers of labeling others. McClellan also introduces kratom, a natural leaf from Southeast Asia, as an alternative to alcohol. Tune in to hear McClellan's thoughtful take on these serious allegations and his broader reflections on addiction and self-awareness.
