Hi My Name Is

Why the hell Jimmy & Chani decide to get sober? The last year, the last months, the feelings, the circumstances and situations that led to Chani & Jimmy finally putting down the hooch. A switch was flipped, and the impossible became possible. It seemed VERY unlikely that either of them would ever stop drinking, and it is nothing short of a miracle that they are both sober today. Brain injuries, DUI's, bodega car wrecks, hijacking other peoples divorces, and fleeing the ER to become a missing person. You'll be sure to understand why getting sober for them was completely imperative after hearing this episode.
