Not easy being single... try being single, sober, and a strip club dj! Today we talk to Mike Reed, founder of "Single And Sober" - a dating website dedicated to those in recovery.

Today we welcome the amazing Sasha McLean, Executive Director of Archway Academy in Houston. Archway is a recovery high school dedicated to supporting teens in recovery from drug and alcohol abuse or dependency. It's hard enough going through high school but especially difficult for kids going through addiction recovery. Archway offers students an opportunity to grow (academically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually) by integrating the principles of recovery into daily education. This is a MUST listen!

The show opens with Michael getting kicked out of the N/A facebook group! We talk AA shaming, abstinence is not the only way, what to do when you're prescribed pain meds after a surgery, and we welcome special guest, Patty Hays. Patty is a career life counselor with 35 years of sobriety. She is awesome and you should listen.

Why is it ok to take addictive pain pills but not use marijuana to help with chronic pain if you're an recovering addict? Plus more 12 step debate with guests Jeb Jarrell and Daniel Montoya.

Most people in recovery have relapsed. It can make you give up or it can make you stronger. Our own Michael Jay gets open and honest about his recent relapse and how it's made him rethink his purpose in life of helping others with addiction. VERY POWERFUL episode for everyone in recovery!!

12 Step Programs have been the blueprint to addiction recovery for decades but some say it's based on guilt and shame and the chance of relapsing is greater after programs like AA or NA. Today the boys discuss!

Let's face it, if you drink at all chances are you've gotten behind the wheel impaired. Drunk driving kills 10,000 people a year and it's got to stop! Today the boys discuss their personal experiences with driving under the influence and offer ways to stop.
