Take a break from the deep stuff and enjoy a laugh with this special blooper episode. We’re sharing all the silly mistakes, missed cues, awkward pauses, and uncontrollable laughter that have piled up since we started making the podcast. From flubbed words to completely losing our train of thought, nothing is off-limits.

This episode is all about having fun, not taking ourselves too seriously, and letting you in on the behind-the-scenes moments you don’t usually hear. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the chaos, the giggles, and the very human moments that happen when the mics are on.

In this episode, the hosts dive into the concept of emotional sobriety—what it really means beyond just managing emotions, and how it shows up in everyday life. They explore emotional sobriety as the ability to experience feelings honestly without letting those emotions control reactions, relationships, or decisions. Rather than suppressing or avoiding feelings, emotional sobriety is framed as staying present, accountable, and self-aware, even when emotions are uncomfortable. Each host shares their personal relationship with emotional sobriety, reflecting on moments where they’ve struggled with emotional reactivity, avoidance, people-pleasing, or shutting down. They openly admit areas they’re still working on—such as pausing before reacting, communicating needs more clearly, letting go of resentment, and learning to sit with discomfort instead of escaping it.

This episode is a raw and intimate podcast of the deeply personal recovery journey of Chase. Told through his voice and the unwavering perspective of his sister, Shye, this podcast goes beyond the surface of addiction to explore the emotional wreckage left in its place and the slow, painful path toward healing. From the early warning signs and moments of denial to the rock-bottom experiences that shook his family to the core. Shye provides honest, heartfelt insight into what it’s like to love someone struggling with addiction. Through their voices, listeners witness not just the toll addiction takes on the person suffering, but the ripple effects it sends through family, friendships, and self-identity. This isn’t a story about perfection or quick fixes but resilience, vulnerability, and the complex, often messy love that binds people together through even the darkest times. Whether you’re someone in recovery, a family member trying to understand, or someone seeking a human story of struggle and strength, this podcast offers a brutally honest look into what it truly means to rebuild after everything feels lost.
