That’s exactly what you'll find in this episode of Rebellion Dogs Radio. Joe C takes us back to a memorable recording from eight years ago, featuring two unique voices in the recovery community: Richard, a Canadian Slam Poet, Comedian, and pianist, and Jack from LA, a punk rocker, author, and recovering Big Book thumper.
Both Richard and Jack bring their distinct perspectives to the table, sharing how they’ve adapted the principles of recovery to fit their unconventional lifestyles. Their stories are not just about overcoming addiction but about thriving in creative and often challenging environments. Whether it’s Richard’s poetic reflections or Jack’s raw punk ethos, their journeys are filled with resilience and authenticity.
