"You can't spell comedian without Ian. On that note, do you have a gun and one bullet?"

WHO: Ian Fidance (@ianimal) is a riotously funny comedian, regularly doing sets at the world-famous Comedy Cellar and Gotham Comedy Club. He also used to be a riotous alcoholic.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT: GETTING. FUCKED. UP. Ian and I got into the grit of his addiction journey in Season 1; this time we laugh about the (literal) highs and subsequent very low lows that come with both casual and addictive substance abuse. From getting motorboated by random bartenders to hallucinations to prostitutes, we reveal some of our craziest "war stories" before reading and analyzing the wild ones that YOU submitted!

LESSON LEARNED: Immense pleasure can always be found in pain; the same can be said for pain in pleasure. We all have vices, but sometimes a vice can become a full-blown lifestyle without us even realizing it. It's important to be aware of the line - and ask for help if you need it.
