Thank you nice. And our very subspecial surprise guests. We're gonna make weight
and we're gonna introduce him and just a little bit at a time of our
choosing for that's what we'll do. Just hold on. It's it's a very
special guest. And man, we are going to talk to him about some
stuff. We were already talking about the stuff. This exciting surprise topic that
is so common in early recovery, and it's it's just amazing, you know
his views on it, and he's had numerous practice with this, and he
was telling us all about the experiences and just can't wait to talk to him.
And you're gonna love to hear what he has to say on the surprise
topic with our surprise guest. But first we have to check in with Justin
Burke because you went to go see Jelly Roll or something. No Disturbed,
Oh, that's right? And Stained? And where do they play the well
pleasant? Mount Pleasant? The casino? Oh, the casino? Who was
better Stained or disturbed? Disturbed? Oh? I was just I was that.
I didn't realize I was saying that all loud stained, how could you
sit through that? It wasn't bad? I think that's a song of theirs,
isn't it. That's why I was saying, did they play how could
you sit through that? Or no, it wasn't bad. I don't think
they have a song that's called it wasn't bad? Oh you're oh, oh
yeah, okay, so okay, the show itself wasn't yes, But so
you went to the show and then Stained came out. Was there anybody before
stained? Nope? Oh so you had to go there? What time does
the concert start? Seven? Seven? What times you get there? Like
five? Oh? My lord? Did you eat or something? I didn't
want to wait in lines to get like merch? Okay, so we got
there early there two hours before the show. How how was that? Was
that a good strategy? Yeah? We got right in. We're able to
get our t shirts, which costs like forty bucks a piece. And you
weren't a big drinker back and then of course you would drink, but you
weren't a big drinker. You know, your drug of choice was kind of
stimulants. Yeah, So does it bother you to go to a show and
you know somebody's effed up on whatever? No, my mom was getting she
is drinking, So I mean it doesn't bother me. Your mom's not in
recovery obviously, but it didn't bother you, No, okay, Because a
lot of people are like, man, I could never go to a show
because either A, it's gonna It's kind of why I don't go golfing.
I'm not gonna golf. I just went golfing to drink beer and drink liquor.
And hit golf balls and rounding a golf cart. I can see that,
so I did. I don't like golf. I can't starts like watching
Lizard Lick Toeing or Dog the Pouny Hunter. I don't like those shows,
but I watch them when I'm drunk, you know. And I don't watch
them today either, you know. So it's like I can see where people
would say I'm not going to go to a concert because that's what I did,
and that's what I did in my addiction, and that's just too close
to home. I don't go to shows anymore. And of course they do
make I don't know if they make DVDs anymore, but you can probably buy
if you're a Food Fighters and I'm sure you can go purchase the Food Fighters
Live show and watch it over and over at your house. Maybe just turn
up really loud and tell your wife, hey, and I take off your
braw showed them titties. Yeah, that's what we were saying, because I
did ask you that. I was like, because you brought your daughter,
I was like, you have to explain the titties tutors, and you're like,
nah, I don't know. It was on I think that's a good
thing. I haven't seen any at any concert I've been at. Well,
again, I think that's a good thing. And like, these aren't These
aren't the boobs that you really want to see, especially growing up in my
air because I'm so much older than you. Like the boobs might have died
with like the hair bands. Yeah, I was gonna say def Leppard poison
stuff like that, but they didn't die because when I saw brought Michael's in
Fayetteville, Arkansas and Enforcemith, Arkansas, it was titties. But those were
not eighteen twenty year old titties. It was fifty eight year old titties.
And hey, you know what, some people will say, titties a titty.
We got our surprise guest. He's over there dying, but he might
be a titty guy. I don't know. We'll we'll throw that in our
conversation, our secret topic with our secret cast. But yeah, so again,
I think it's a good thing. But Disturbed came out and I saw
a video I think the day before you went. I think I sent it
to you then, and it was Disturbed. And what's lead singer's name?
I can't think of his name right, I'm sorry. I thought you liked
him. Well I do, but two hours early. Probably that's cool to
get some merche doesn't have his name on it, doesn't know, isn't like
Brian or Ben or something. I have a phone. Let should google it.
I should. But anyway, so the lead singer, he posted this
video of him at a concert I guess right before your guys is where he
was like, hey, I love kids or something, and it was really
kind awkward and I'm like, what's he saying? Is he emitting the stuff?
And he's like and moms too or doesn't know how to go? Tell
me again. No, it didn't go nothing like that. A little girl
was like crying in his audience, and he like got down stage to like
personally have a conversation with her and just telling them about about how family is
important to him and everything else. Like it was really heartwarming to see the
video. Then he went in like because I went to the concert. Like
right before that, they do a big speech on mental health and addiction.
So they bring out like chairs and stuff, and they know, oh,
he's just up there like in the middle of the yeah. So he's like,
mom, mean, no, no, no, stupid fied and then
he's like, all right, everybody, for real, I just want to
talk to you about some mental health stuff real quick. Yeah, like like
it was really heartwarming. It was really so touching. Did you say it
was a smooth transition. Yeah. They got a song called like fight for
the Reason or A Reason to Fight or something like that. I Got a
Reason to fight, but it talks about like his addiction and what my addiction
his band members have went through. God, I would play the real song,
but I can't because of like copyright loss. A Reason to Fight disturbed.
His name is David Dramon. Yeah, ram I'm pretty sure he's from
like Ireland, with the way his accent is he was from Chicago. Well,
it's the way his accent iss. Let's read about him. He's been
Williams Michael. He was born in nineteen seventy three. He's an American singer
and songwriter, not from Ireland. He blah blah blah ninety six when I
graduated high schools when he got in that band Stupid five. Is there a
number one song to date? I'm giving down with the sickness. He was
a number forty two on Hit Parader's Top list of one hundred metal vocalist you
saw him live Number forty two Jackie Robinson. Jackie Robinson of Hit Parade's top
list. Yeah, they didn't have their new album come out. Said he
was born in New York. His origin is Illinois and Chicago. How are
you born in New York? But your origin that's where That's where he'd be
living Shytown anyway. So yeah, cool story, bro. I'm sure it
was a good show. But I had a good ship because Staine. I
just I'm not a fan. I'm going to see I prevail in bad Omens
in two weeks. I prevail. They're a Christian ban so they say,
well, they drop a lot of f bombs for being a Christian band.
I dropped a lot of bombs for being somewhat religious, spiritual, spiritual.
Yes, somewhat religious, spiritual. I go with, was your religion somewhat
religious spiritual? No? I mean are you Christian? No, I'm telling
you I'm somewhat religious spiritual guy. It's making it up. But that's cool
though that you went, you got to go. Your daughter was there.
It was a family show. Disturbed did he did he tell the same story?
Though? There was there's a little girl crying, or how did you
know he brought up someone else on actually on stage that he met during his
VIP session that was really touched by his music and very moved. He brought
her up on stage and then did like the same spiel that he did during
that little video. So it's all part of their concerts show. Okay,
you didn't like when he was doing that because you obviously had already seen it.
You didn't. You weren't like, no, that's still hard. This
is how it's gonna go. And you're like yelled at to him, No,
what, no way, No, some dude told him to grab a
tissue, but I thought that was kind of uffed up. But would you
like to buy a shirt today supports recovery either? No? Sure, I'm
glad you had a good time. Man. Let's get to Adam. Adam
has been been a busy man lately. You know, how's it going.
You have your Recovery Dad meeting, which Recovery Dad's Meeting which is on Sundays
at ten am and people can log on to seventeen recovery dot com. There's
a link there, but it's going through zoom. If you have the app.
It's super easy to get there. You just pull up meetings and Recovery
Dads and click it with Sundays at ten am. But Adam, your your
meeting has been getting different clientele, clientele or patrons whatever. What do you
want to call him? Recoveries people? Oh yeah, meeting goers yeah,
uh yeah. Women, Yeah, a lot of women in the Recovery Dad's
meetings lately. Yep. Yeah. And you would think first what the effort
is, what this is recovery Dads. And of course here at the two
seventeen Recovery Center, we don't tell people, hey, this is min only.
This is when men only. Like if someone needs a meeting, we're
like, come on in ye right right on the website. But we were
talking about it the other day and it kind of hit me that there are
a lot of women out there that look up to their fathers that maybe see
recovery Dads. They're like, oh great, I can go get some fatherly
advice. I can go there and I'm not going to get hit on,
you know, like I can go. I mean, we all know how
it is, guys when we go to meetings and women are just like they're
trying to hit on us and then gets old. It really does. And
when I think when they see that, they think, okay, father figure,
you know, is something that was either good to me or you know,
some good fatherly advice. You know, maybe they're they're looking at it
like that. Yeah, you know, that's kind of when I was thinking
that. I was like that that would make sense that woman would want to
show up for that. Yeah. At the end of the day, I
mean, you know, it's a topic, and you know, every week
it's something different anyway, you know, kind of just end up talking about
whatever the room brings up, you know, and uh yeah, I mean
every meeting's it's all worked out and you know, I guess just a name
at this point, you know what I mean. It's recovery meetings, recovery
meeting and uh yeah, yeah, different perspectives anyway, it's good for everybody
probably, so yeah, and it's got a cool logo. Justin's wearing his
want to buy a shirt shirt today, which I love. Right, No,
glad you rock that. I'm loves it too. I'm listening to our
podcast. No, she should, she should. Definitely. That's my David
Dropped or whatever his name was. That's my speech to her, you should
get stupid hard. All right. I think it's time now to bring on
our very special guests and our very special topic, which today's topic, y'all
should not be too surprising too many. It's been kind of hard trying to
find a like a nineteen twenty year old. Well it's not really nineteen twenty
year olds that we're talking about, Mitch, but we're talking about relationships,
relationships. Bringing our friend Brian. Brian, how are you doing good?
How are you doing doing well? Man? Doing well? I'm glad that
this is your first appearance on the podcast, isn't it? Yes? It
is nice, nice, and we're gonna go hardcore with it. The wicked
in the paint. Yea. So we were talking off air about relationships and
I gave you the most solid advice that anybody could ever give you besides Jesus
himself. Oh my, that was a break up with her, and you
were like no when I say yes, And and I explained my theory to
you and you still said no, that's mean or something, which whatever,
it's not mean, man, it's looking out for yourself. It's a good
theory. But man, you know, you gotta know you're selfish. Oh,
most in recovery, yes, but it is its selfish and beginning we
in the middle towards the end, right, m selfish, selfish, selfish?
Oh, I don't know, with my past experience, selfish, selfish,
selfish me me me where I'm at. I'm back, but this time
on my own. But granted with that being said earlier on in my recovery,
you know, decade ago, decades whatever, Yeah, I focused my
recovery. I focused on the relationship at hand versus anything about I wanted to
be away from recovery. I wasn't accepting recovery, so therefore, anything that
would pull me away more than I wanted to get away from it was.
I was game because I could justify my getting away from recovery and all the
meetings and everything and whatnot, just the community, if I could use that
to justify a little bit more than oh yeah, I was running with it.
We're going wrong. This is how it's gonna go. Totally understand,
bro, Like I like to think about it like that too. What I
had explained though to you, was you gotta break up with because I said
you gotta Yeah, you got you gotta lay it on the line, and
you got to even at this age. Yeah, she's fifty three, I'm
forty seven. How perfect age to do this. That's actually the perfect age.
So just like A like A I can't do it. I could do
it, man, Like, look, i'll do it today when we leave.
It's not working out, because this is what happened with Martie and I,
and I of course was using there was there's many things that I was
afraid of, like I wasn't good enough for her, you know, the
whole thing that I don't have enough money, working too much. But yeah,
I don't have a job and I'm doing its all this crazy stuff,
and I with time, and women love time, dude. They love time,
Oh yeah, about as much as they love money, maybe more.
And Marnie she loved time a lot more of money. But I didn't know
that, and so I just felt that when she was telling me that,
oh I left to listen to the podcast to figure out how your day was,
because you would never talked to me. And I was like, look,
I don't have time. So I was like, Marnie, we just
probably shouldn't do this, Like it's not you, it's me, you know,
kind of that that thing. And one thing I really was worried about
was messing up her sobriety. And I told her, I was like,
I don't you don't think that it'll work because I can't give you what you
need and I don't want to mess up your you know, your sobriety.
And she just said like, I'm glad you think so highly of yourself.
That's cute, but you're not messing up my sobriety because I'm doing this for
myself. And she said that. I was like, no. You know
when you drop something, you're like no, and you see it like dropping
through the No. I was. I didn't know she would say that,
Like I had no idea. I thought she'd just like whatever, move on
to the next like broke ass, I don't need you anyway. But when
she said that, I was like, wait a minute, like that's exactly
what. Yeah, like the hold on a minute like and then Tyrone kept
busting my ass like, oh, shed we having wings tonight? We should
have Mark Martin, We shouldn't invite Martie over, and oh we can't do
that because you know fucked it up Winfield, you know, like uh stop
Tyrone? He was. I remember one time he was like, that's the
kind of girl you marry. He's like, these the wholes maybe coming around
here. No, you need you need a woman like Marty. She's a
good girl. She's a real woman. That's a kind of woman. You
married Winfield and you fucked that up, you know, and I'm like,
damn it drown. So how long after this was it that you were like
whoa, whoa, whoa Wait, that's pretty much after ray AFG you said
it. Yeah, pretty much. It was like I said, if you
dropped walking down the stream, drop some money down the piece on the drain,
you know, you're like no, and you're like, oh, it's
gone, and I'm like, oh, I thought it was gone forever.
And then it's a nice riding like send her like little messages, you know,
like hey, what's up, MISSU sexy and she's like I'm no booty
call. I'm like, oh okay, you know, but that was another
sign that like okay, and this is what I want a woman. And
so when we did kind of connect and get back together, it was something
that was like okay, cool, Like I didn't have to question anything.
She knew I was broke, she knew I didn't have a boat. She
knew I had money. See, I think with with my girlfriend and I
uh with her stint of sobriety and mine and we both willingly coming into the
recovery community and doing this on our own and then later on getting into relationship
and how we've gone about it too, is totally different than any thing I've
ever done in my life, you know, an actual relationship building something,
you know, talking instead of I don't, can I say it? No?
Talking instead of fucking you know, I mean sorry, but we'll throw
that out there, you know, so so I mean it. It's a
good thing though, I mean to I've never dated anyone in recovery, you
know that's working a honest program and is is really trying, And so I
don't feel like I'm such an alien you notice though, because being codependent it's
something that I'm sure you're aware about. We all are and some sort of
yes fashion, but are you aware if you are, are you noticing?
Like because that was like one thing, Like I said, I was afraid
that that whole thing was happening. And you know, I noticed Marty was
wanting to hang out with me all the time and spend all of her time
with me. But but she was she had fallen in love, you know,
and that's kind of what happens. But she wasn't like like coming home.
She wasn't coming home late. She wasn't like she wasn't like blowing off
her responsibilities, you know. And she was working like for her mom.
She was working overnight to another job. That's how. That's how my girlfriend
is taking care of her responsibilities. And and you know, we just we
just met up just now today and and then came down here and uh,
you know, so it's not like you know that in love stuck like glue.
Yeah, like you know what I mean. So it's it's good that
we keep our recovery first and then you know, meat in the middle,
you know what I mean, you have to the recovery does have to come
first. And if if case people are wondering what that dinging is, it's
Justin's food. It's been done. Whoa, it's feeding on us all.
No, it's not excellent. Were we supposed to get some ice cream?
Yeah? They were talking about getting ice cream. Ice cream floating around this
building. Oh anyway, and and art it's going on right now. Yeah,
we have our it's art music therapy music group. Yeah, it's pretty
cool and interesting to hear some of the songs out of there. Except jelly
Roll. I'm not a fan of. Yeah. I'd rather see Disturbed and
Stained and jelly Roll. But I just don't like Aaron Lewis. Man.
He's a whiner, just wine and all the time. And you see he
was getting wrecked on stage. Yeah, and he's probably like this girl love
me man, I'm ugly to look like a troll. And I did a
song with Fred Durst. I wonder why I'm on the outside. It's been
a wild If I can only have some empathy, I don't understand so far
away. I just can't get it right. This guy very good trash.
He's probably want of those country songs I forgot I was saying, sucks anyway.
That's my Aaron Lewis, pretty heavy though a lot better than That's like
saying, my poop this morning was better than my poop last night. It
was bigger. We don't need to hear about your poop stories. I'm just
that's my that's my Aaron Lewis stories, and my Aaron. I should,
yeah, I should write him a letter to him. And it just says,
dear Aaron, stop, thanks Corey, it's been a while. Yeah,
I know it's been a Watterson. You've gotta let her like to stop.
Thanks. Oh man, Fred Durst says, you suck? Did you
ruined his career? How about the lightest? Oh man, I'm gonna follow
that guy. This guy should get him. We should get him a Aaron
Lewis poster. Yeah, thing up on the wall and here one day.
Yeah, oh yeah, it's coming. What one of the details that stick
right on the wall. So at least takes you a minute to get it
off. They probably don't sell him. You gotta stare at him for a
while while you're peeling it off the wall. They probably started having those on
their website and then they had to take him down because nobody was buying him.
So they're like, well, what are we doing now? Like when
you bought your stain shirt, they just threw that in for the disturbed shirt
you bought, right, and here's a Stain one two. But here you
go. No, that's forty bucks. Damn, I'm paid for all the
shirts. So we don't really know how much it was because she was probably
oh no, it was forty dollars a shirt time six mm hmm. See
it seems like since you're the shirt guy, would you like to buy a
shirt today recovery we could have like swapped like hey have No, you wouldn't
want Aaron to wear that on stage? No, like you know, it's
pouring Jack Daniels down his throat two seventeen recovery shirt. Oh my, but
jave Draco guy or whatever from Yeah, he's sober. Just set him a
shirt. She ask me, you should ra hamble letter ask that's I smell
blog coming on. Just take the shirt and ball it up with rubber bands
and whip that thing at him. Well to see, that's the thing,
man, people are anybody get hit with stuff because people are throwing like phones
and ship at people. One chick who sings songs lupa or dia. There's
two of them, Like, I get them all confused. Do a leaper
or something like that. There's one I don't know what that one looks like,
but there's one it's kind of hot and foreign. But then there's there's
like the leap, and then there's the dupa and I don't know, I
get them so confused anyway, She got hit in the head with a phone
on stage whack and then then like they hey, buddy, this year phone.
He's like, yeah, that's my phone. Why did you throw it?
I just wanted to see if I could hit her. This was like
a thirty three year old guy. You just wanted to see if you get
hit her. That's he probably work. Actually furniture. Those people are stupid.
They are I would say, no offense, but I mean every bit
of it actually furnished our customer service. I'm sorry, man, almost like
kia Ka furniture. I don't even know. Let's let's give you a math
problem. Are you good at math? No? Perfect? So no.
Man goes online, Okay, he's looking for a table and chairs. M
He sees the table, buys the table based on the sale price of the
chairs. There's a math problem. The chairs normally are sold in a set
four one hundred and seventy dollars. They're sold in sets, and so one
hundred and seventy it's fifty percent off sale, so eighty five dollars percent.
Man orders two sets. How many chairs does he get and what's the price?
Twelve chairs one hundred twenty five bucks. Wow, I wish you were
today as the version, No, the man would get four chairs and it
would be one hundred and seventy dollars the original price for two chairs because it
was half off. I wouldn't get one free. Two chairs is a set?
Yeah, yeah, two chairs come in the set, and they're only
sold in sets, so you get two chairs. If the man myself quantity
two as in two sets, he wants four chairs and I paid the one
seventy. And now they're saying because it was on sale and they have no
way of tracking what their sale price was, and they're like, well,
no, you paid one seventy, you get two chairs. I'm like,
you only sell them in effing sets. If I put two something on there,
and I showed him exactly, I'm like, here, if I go
in there today, well there's no sale, it's three hundred and forty.
Anyway. I can go on for days about this three hundred and forty dollars
and they're so stupid they cannot figure this out. And I'm like, it'd
be three hundred forty dollars. Well, yeah, because you're getting two sets.
I'm like, that's exactly what the f I did the other day,
and it says two in my cart, just like it does on my invoice.
And then so I took the price out because they clearly could not pull
this together because they're like, but it's one seventy. I'm like, it
was a sale on I paid, but it's on sale now. I'm like,
no, no, that's your every day sale that's always on sale that
you just black out another number. I'm talking about a real sale that ended
that. They're like, our sales still going on. I'm like, well,
that's weird because the sale I took advantage of ended at midnight that night.
Question do you like the chairs? All right? But not for the
regular price of them. That's why I bought them, because they're around sale
man like, and I'm going round and around Better Business Bureau and I even
broke down the like simple math problem for them, critical thinking problem. I
gave it to them, and they were just like, nope, because you
got your chairs. And I'm like, motherfucker, go to your fucking website,
add the ship to it and tell me what happens, then give me
just send me my chairs. But they won't even go their own website to
do that. Sounds like acceptance thing. I don't know, and I started
blaming the gun. I started blaming the younger generation and going, well,
maybe it's just they got these you know, thirty year old kids working in
there that like to throw phones at people at concerts. I don't know,
or our math was just badden our generation. No, it wasn't. That's
the thing. It was really Actually now it's even better because we got excel.
So now the old generation we know excel, we know how to really
do it, and then we gotta put up with these punk ass youngers,
these young uns, young guns. Why back in my day, I should
run for office and no, both ways up ass, like hell seven miles
yeah, four minutes to hauling hauling the horse on my back. Yeah no.
And I sent Justin and Adam a picture the other day because there's one
of our representatives, Betsy Kalfia, and she's still to get back with me
about a bunch of things. But she does these little coffee talks, and
she's doing one on October and I really think we should be there because in
the picture that they posted, hey thanks for joining us for our comfort talk.
It's just a bunch of gray hairs, you know, those aren't right?
Silver So those are what do they call them, silver foxes? Yeah,
silver foxes. They went yeah, older people, which I was like,
okay, see, but these are things that we need to be at,
you know, we need to voice our and the express our concerns and
voice our opinions. Of course, because she does not like emails apparently,
or she's so busy, and I get it, you know that it's hard
for her team to write me back. But if we showed up at these
we at least Photobama picture right, like two seventeen shirt justin wantabut shirt,
you know, like I think that'd be Adam and his Recovery Dad's shirt.
Yeah, or Alien Adam shirt. Oh yeah, definitely alien at that's interesting
with the recovery Dad's thing. That's uh yeah, that's that's It's very cool.
But it's interesting. I mean it's specifies the women. Yeah yeah,
it's as my little way too hard for that, Brian. I like,
it really makes you wonder at all. I mean, you know, I
mean, are the younger crowd or are they just system malting pot different yep,
different people. He just has this cheesy, cheesy grin on his face.
What is this meeting? Yeah? Oh wait, I got a girlfriend.
That's right, Dad don't apparently you don't have to be I am a
dad. There you go. Supposedly mm hmm. Well yeah, so the
alien thing though, real quick because I didn't even talk about this. Ancient
aliens are going to be in Chelmbazoo at the Chelmazoo State Theater on November three.

I said that, all the details about Ancient Aliens what they're going to be
doing, because that was your question, just you're like, it's a TV
show, but what are they going to be doing? Yeah, there's a
little snopsis of what they're going to be doing on the page. So just
go to the contest page and you'll you'll see it. You're able to read
it, and there's also a link if you want to buy tickets. You
can have tickets and meet those guys. Really that sounds fun, Yeah,
same price. Maybe. I don't know, because I went to their website
yesterday and I realized that I was being so creedy because I was like,
man, I want some VIAP tickets. I want to meet those dudes.
And so I go to Mills Entertainment. That's the company that promotes them.
And when I reached out to Kambazoo State Theater about the tickets, they said,
well, this actually isn't our show. It's going to the promoter would
have to give you those. So we'll reach out to the promoters see if
you know they're willing to do this with you guys. And right away she
wrote back, She's like, absolutely so cool. You know you guys got
tickets. I s that's sweet. And so I look up the Mills Entertainment
and get the info at Mills Entertainment dot com email and I'm typing away and
I'm like, YO, would really like some VP. And it hit me.
I'm like, you know what, I haven't even thank these people yet.
Here I am gimm gimm gimm gimmy, gimme. Sounds like whatever.
That's an old gear trick. No, that's I didn't ask him for the
tickets. I just thanked them. So do you know what the recovery community
thanks you or recoveries thank you? I thank you, staff, thanks you.
We really appreciate it. Yeah, thanks noise, Yeah, that's that's
up. We don't need VP tickets. Oh, they'll probably wanted to meet
us anyway, tickets. Yeah, I was hanging out. I don't want
to do a podcast. We want to meet those guys. Bring them up
here. Let's let them talk for a minute. Then with their grain laser
pointers. I don't know, just don't cross the streams. No, it
should be a good time though. But yeah, I did change the email
and yeah, I just thank them because that seems way more appropriate. Yeah,
