Comedian Dan Duvall joins Forrest to talk addiction, drinking, mental health, and the underlying need for validation that fueled years of destructive behavior. They get into moving goalposts, "I'll quit tomorrow" thinking, addictive patterns beyond substances, and learning how to slow down and make intentional choices for the first time. It's raw, funny, and deeply honest — packed with real stories about denial, shame, creativity, gambling, codependency, and what it actually means to grow up and participate in your own life without numbing out. 🎧 If you've ever chased approval, justified bad decisions, or felt stuck repeating the same patterns — this episode hits hard and still makes you laugh. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes on addiction, recovery, mental health, and comedy.
