Sex & the City, Suboxone, and Second Chances

I’m reunited with my old friend Greg Behrendt to talk alt-comedy nights, getting sober in the 90's, the curveball of cancer and pills, and the decidedly un-glamorous work of repairing family. Greg shares how opiate withdrawal felt “worse than the cancer,” why stand-up still keeps him sane, and what it’s like parenting now-grown kids while staying true to the comic inside. We also revisit the Sex and the City writers’ room and the “he’s just not that into you” moment that changed everything. Funny, bruised, hopeful—and very Greg.
