My guest in this Episode is Chris Marshall, the founder Sans Bar—a sober establishment— located in Austin, TX. He established Sans Bar on the belief that everyone deserves a space where they are accepted and seen for who they are. Chris and I talk about a wide range of topics, but at the forefront of everything we discussed is the notion that getting sober is a political act linked to fostering community and creating a more just society. This is an important and deep conversation and I hope you find it as meaningful as I did.
