When I caught wind of Isaac Peifer going sober for a week I just had to get him on the pod. We discuss social anxiety, drinking to excess, illegal private parties and shared public misery.

*Note: Neither Al nor Isaac have attended illegal parties.

Mia Kerin reinforces the foundations of self-care in what becomes an impromptu therapy session amidst a personal spell of my own depression.

Communist co-host of the anti-pedophile podcast TrueAnon, Brace Belden teaches me some podcasting tricks of the trade and we chat about addiction, recovery, and The Program.

Poet/Coder Willis Plummer attempts to read poetry as I beg him not to. We discuss our new quarantine mindset and hobbies, particularly his startling use of ketamine and I attempt to have an intervention.

Though we don't explicitly mention it on the pod, Nick DeMarco is an artist from Seattle. In this episode we discuss our longterm struggles with insomnia.

Longtime member of the Downtown New York Art Scene Jo Shane reflects on her drug use in the 70's and the years of sobriety she's since gotten back. We discuss art, Brandy Melville, the cool person AA meeting in the West Village, and how the 12 step program can actually work.

Artist/Skater Parker Ito and I look at the subtle differences between passion, obsession, addiction and OCD.

Bolt Brown and I discuss our mothers' experience with multi-level marketing platforms such as Melaluca, Avon, Herbalife, and Mary Kay. Shout out to Kacey Musgraves, actual angel. <3

Poet, mental health advocate, and actual angel David Terry and I discuss homelessness, addiction, mental health, the Black Lives Matter movement, and a very abridged version of The David Terry Experience. *Personal favorite of Al's*
