NOTE: This episode is almost unlistenable due to echo.*

If you can get past the fkciung annoying! echo you'll find Jeff and Chris pondering the very nature of existence.

NOT! It's just more half-assed musing on sobriety, recovery, and mental health.

*We tried to use the podcast-by-phone app Anchor while in the same room and it clearly did not work.

Themes? @djfmdotcom, of course!

“This is starting to sound like a ‘woe is me’ situation.”

In which Chris rambles on for half an hour about the woes of having to produce and engineer a podcast.

Also, with some sobriety, recovery, mental health stuff.

The guys open up the mailbag, taste Wellbeing Brewing's new N.A. Dark Amber brew, and get all hot about the Trump administration and its response—or lack thereof—to the opioid crisis.
