I was raised in a culture where alcohol is abused. For many years, I thought the excess of drinking alcohol was normal. Last week, I discussed my ethnic background and the college culture that led me to the path of education and prevention. 

In this episode, my friend Michael Regan talks about his personal battle with drugs and alcohol, criminal history, and his ongoing journey of recovery.
