No sugarcoating here—just real talk about alcohol, weed, and the slippery slope into harder stuff like heroin.The guys break down the mind games of addiction: denial, relapse, and the struggle to claw your way back. They go headfirst into fatherhood, how becoming a dad changes everything (or doesn’t, until you’re ready to face your demons), and the role of community in making it out alive. They also tackle the debate around marijuana in recovery—lifeline or slippery slope?Through all the dark moments, this one is about hope, resilience, and the grind of rebuilding your life.
