WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:07.480 This is the two seventeen Recovery podcast with Corey Winfield. I think that's pretty 2 00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:10.960 fair for a guy once a quarter, four times a year trim chone nails. 3 00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:13.000 If it needs to be done, it needs to be done. I'll 4 00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.960 thank you that you can go buy the calendar year. You probably wish I 5 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:20.039 would because I probably maybe really do it like twice a year. And Cole 6 00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:24.920 holes Marney Winfield the people that really are drawn to twelve step program. One 7 00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:30.039 piece of those twelve step groups is because it's people from all different varieties in 8 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:37.920 lengths of time of sobriety. Good morning. It is the twenty third of 9 00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:42.159 June twenty twenty three. My name is Cory Winfield, my name's Marny Winfield, 10 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:46.399 and this is the two seventeen Recovery podcast up in early today morning. 11 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:49.399 Everybody, you've done a podcast all week. People have been blowing me up, 12 00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:54.520 like, Yo, where's the podcast below? Yeah, this is my 13 00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:56.799 mom, So here you go, Mom, here's a podcast. That's my 14 00:00:56.799 --> 00:00:59.200 mom. She's like, I'm not gonna hear that till later. I'm sleep. 15 00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.320 But no, I wanted. I wanted to do something that's never been 16 00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:07.239 done in Northern Michigan podcasting. What's that? I want to do a podcast 17 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:11.920 from three locations today? Oh this is I mean, sit down. If 18 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:15.280 you're sitting down, stand up because you got to change because you're just gonna 19 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.920 be like what did he just say? Yeah, world records in Michigan, 20 00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:25.640 Northern Michigan. But it's a world record the world. You think it would 21 00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:29.079 just be in Michigan, it's not. It's a world record. I think 22 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:30.640 you can do it. I believe in you. Yeah, I mean it's 23 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.200 something I've always wanted to do, like back when I was in radio. 24 00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:38.319 Yeah, since like I don't know seven h five this morning, but I've 25 00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.959 first heard of podcasting at iHeart Medium and they're like, everybody needs to put 26 00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:45.319 a podcast on your on your web page. And I'm like, wow, 27 00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:49.239 I don't want to, Like we got paid to talk, and then that's 28 00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.480 the last thing we wanted to do, right, But if they were again, 29 00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:56.120 that's just like anything in life, and it's just first maybe advice this 30 00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.719 one can take when they're talking to somebody who's not wanting to admit to being 31 00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:07.359 having a problem with substances is you let them make it their idea. And 32 00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:10.319 of course that goes back to like the Bible days where they were like, 33 00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:14.680 hey, if you don't get your corn out of there, and we're gonna 34 00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:20.639 kill you because the devil's coming or whatever they said. But my point is, 35 00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:23.879 though, if they just would have said, we'll pay you a thousand 36 00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.560 dollars to people who do that, I've been like, all right, let's 37 00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:30.039 do it. Instead, they're like two of them on your page a week, 38 00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:35.719 and we'd be like, oh right. Trying to run a radio station. 39 00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:40.120 Yeah, if the desire doesn't come from within you, then M doesn't 40 00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:46.360 mean. It doesn't mean very much. Yeah, it's that desire. Speaking 41 00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:50.560 of radio and friends and problems. Buddy of mine called me, well, 42 00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:54.000 this other guy we worked with, I guess this sounds some hard times, 43 00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:59.919 M sound like it. That sounded really bad, and it made me just 44 00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:08.039 feel grateful that I survived those times. And I guess the guy's not doing 45 00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:13.000 what he's promised to people after they've given him money. There's nothing to do 46 00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:19.560 with sex either. It's like other professional stuff. And I told Ron that 47 00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:23.439 because Ron was the friend who called me. He takes pride in what he 48 00:03:23.479 --> 00:03:27.439 does, you know, and I do as well. And I couldn't imagine 49 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:34.879 having somebody paying me for something and then just not show up, like that 50 00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:38.520 would crush me, and that would send me. And maybe the first time 51 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:45.680 it was he got drunk and just didn't wake up, and it was I 52 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:50.199 don't know, I don't know how you come back from that, Like well, 53 00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.759 I mean, I think this is a perfect example of when people get, 54 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:58.280 you know, deep into their addiction. You know, we make we 55 00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:01.240 make poor decisions and be able to do whatever we need to get that to 56 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:06.680 keep things going, to keep feeding or drinking or drugging. And for some 57 00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:15.879 people they shoplift, you know, or some people you know, to swindle 58 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.439 people. You know that that's could be a version of that. It's like 59 00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.480 I'll just if I can get money in my pocket, you know, for 60 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.800 the things that I need to keep making my world go around like nothing's a 61 00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:31.680 problem. I'll deal with the consequences later or hope that this this flies you 62 00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.759 know. Yeah, And who knows, maybe that's the case. Maybe he's 63 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:43.079 swindling them. I think that he just can't stop and he can't pull together, 64 00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:50.879 so he's trying to make decisions and make commitments as if he's going to 65 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:55.040 with the intention. Yeah, that things are going to get down and they 66 00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:57.519 just haven't. Yeah, and I think it's a little bit more honorable. 67 00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.399 Yeah, and maybe he missed the first one, you know, like I 68 00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:01.800 said, maybe he I was like, I'll just drink and you've probably done 69 00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:05.680 this too. I'm gonna be there at seven. Well, I'll just drink, 70 00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:10.240 tell noon, take a little nap, I'll get up at six. 71 00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:14.120 I'll be there. And then you wake up at nine pm and you're like, 72 00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:16.120 oh, or you just don't stop drinking and you don't well. And 73 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:19.160 that usually goes hand in hand with that too, because all noon and I'll 74 00:05:19.160 --> 00:05:23.000 stop drinking. That's two, and then it's three and all use like a 75 00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:26.480 real quick hour, and then you wake up into nine and you missed the 76 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.040 whole thing and you're like, oh my god. Yeah, but getting fired 77 00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.680 from my job and not finishing something that you've already been paid to his company. 78 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.759 Yeah, But I'm just saying like, maybe he was in that way 79 00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:41.000 of drinking and he planned it out poorly, and yeah, missed and missed 80 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:45.879 the gig and then you're just like, oh my god, I mean how 81 00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:48.040 you come back from that? Normal person would probably call apologize, apologize, 82 00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:53.759 give the people their money back. But when you're active addiction, the best 83 00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.800 thing to do is to keep drinking, because then you forget and then you 84 00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:00.360 get that effort and who cares anyway? Whatever, man, Yeah, so 85 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:02.800 you in court. You know, I'll pay you eventually and it'll turn around 86 00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:09.360 and like you said, worry about that later. And then they just start 87 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:13.439 snowballing and then there's more people like I guess they're leaving stuff on his Facebook 88 00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:15.480 page. Even then it's just like dang, like his business page. It's 89 00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:20.560 like and that just highlights the whole Burning bridges is what we do in our 90 00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:26.480 active addiction. Yeah, and Ron when he called, he was like, 91 00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.079 yeah, I feel bad for the guy. He needs help, but we 92 00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.079 don't really know what to do. And it's like unless he has that desire, 93 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.560 you know, And that's the hard part of it as well, because 94 00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:39.120 the alcohol will trick your brain and he might be in give up mot already. 95 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:41.879 I was there before. Yeah, it's like, well, I'll just 96 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.600 drink this bottle and the doctor say if I drinking and I could die, 97 00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:47.560 maybe this will be it. Then family won't have to worry about me anymore. 98 00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:54.879 Everything will be good. I'll be out of here, which it was 99 00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:58.439 the alcohol making me feel that way, making me think that way, because 100 00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:00.639 no, I didn't want to one h man, you know, And I'm 101 00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:05.120 really happy with life today and I'm happy where I landed. And it wasn't 102 00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:09.920 easy, but I'm glad that I hit all the branches on the way down. 103 00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.680 I really felt that lots of branches. Yeah, and it makes what 104 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:16.480 I do today and who I talked to today and how I talk to people 105 00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:21.879 today like makes sense and it's worth it. But I didn't have to go 106 00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:26.720 through all that struggle. I'm not saying that people that don't have to go 107 00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:30.720 through that struggle can't relate at all what I'm saying. Yeah, but just 108 00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:32.720 for me to be doing what I'm doing, you know, it's like I 109 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:39.240 have to do this otherwise it wasn't gonna work. So it's a little different. 110 00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:41.839 But yeah, So my world record, though, I'm setting. So 111 00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:46.120 now you're really doing what you're supposed to be doing. Tis times three just 112 00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:49.040 in three locations.

It was just it 152 00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:22.120 was sick. Actually, I don't I can't wrap my head around how Colts 153 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.080 happened. I can't either. I want them people to get thinking. I'm 154 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:31.759 like, there's gotta be somebody somewhere that went to like seven to eleven and 155 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:37.279 somebody was like caught on to their insanity and was like, you do realize 156 00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:41.759 that that is totally not even close to being something that's real, and then 157 00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:43.879 have them go back from seven to eleven to their cold people and be like, 158 00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:48.600 you know, this guy at seven to eleven challenged me um, and 159 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.240 you know, brought up some pretty good points about how all this stuff we're 160 00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:58.559 being told might not be true. Maybe we should, maybe we should look 161 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:03.519 into this little bit more. We should do some some dig in and deep 162 00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:07.799 dive on all these all these things that we're being told. You think, 163 00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:15.919 I mean, hundreds of people nobody nobody was like, Hey, this creepy 164 00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.240 can there's like one hundreds of thousands of them. You just want to walk 165 00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:24.600 up and big smash smash smash, yeah, because I just I don't understand 166 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.440 it. I don't get it. And here we are with a nonprofit and 167 00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:31.399 we're kind of running the situation where it's like we need funding, we need 168 00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:35.279 donations like big time, and these people are just giving them money to like 169 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.919 these crazy people. And they're like, Oh, you're supposed to hit your 170 00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:41.399 wife that keeps her in lyne, and you're supposed to beat your kids. 171 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.559 You know, fears, what rules, and just like anyway, this isn't 172 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:50.639 the podcast for that. But we'll go over that documentary to tell at some 173 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.960 point and I'll have to remember the name of the documentary before I cancel Netflix 174 00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:00.240 because Netflix is useless. But they did have Extraction too. What's the guy 175 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:05.000 who plays Thor? I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't 176 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.600 know what. That's a movie. It's a movie, baby, I know 177 00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:13.200 that I know is a movie. I don't know Extraction two. Never didn't 178 00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:18.320 know one of the first one. Okay, I think he watched it with 179 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.559 me. He starts off he's like drinking a beer and on some cliff with 180 00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:26.080 some guy and he just like takes his beard and takes the drink and then 181 00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:31.240 just walks off the cliff and then falls in the water and then like it's 182 00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:37.919 it's Indian style on the bottom of the lake. Oh yes, I do 183 00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:46.440 bring up bottom of water places because I'm not talking about that story the Titan 184 00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:52.559 thing. I guess they're dead. I don't. I don't And why don't 185 00:13:52.600 --> 00:14:01.080 I challenge everything COVID fake like everything summery guy, it's a Oaks. I 186 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:05.720 know you are very nuggative. I don't know. It's not healthy though, 187 00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:09.120 it's I came up on the street and like we just say like don't We 188 00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:13.639 were just saying like, don't believe everything, and now we're like leave things. 189 00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.759 We're giving mixed messages today this morning, there's one hundred dollars. I 190 00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:22.440 don't want your fake hundred dollar bill pretty donations. You don't need your fake 191 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:28.919 donations. Go to to seventeen recovery dot com slash support though, if you 192 00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:31.360 want to make a donation anyway. Extraction Movies, Yes, there's some good 193 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.240 stuff on that flax, but the documentary it does it does make you. 194 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:39.799 It does bring up some emotions, at least it did for me. But 195 00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.320 it's worth. It's worth. I mean, you'll realize like people, Yeah, 196 00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:52.279 humanities just dumb, questionable, sometimes insane. Donate now, or Jesus 197 00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:56.159 is coming for you? Or did Devil's coming for you? I mean, 198 00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:03.840 or both of them. You know, donate now, if not scare them. 199 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:07.519 I don't know if it was or not, but I think they're still 200 00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.600 listening. You get what I'm saying. Yeah, well, thank you. 201 00:15:11.639 --> 00:15:16.000 Because this is I had to be fifteen minutes long. You're probably thinking, 202 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:20.320 Corey, you just looked over there to see what time, how long we've 203 00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.240 been going, and I guess fifteen minutes was the mark, and you're correct. 204 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:26.639 All that did just happen. But fifteen minutes is the mark to set 205 00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:33.080 the world record. So I need three at least five fifteen minute podcast today. 206 00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:35.720 This is from the home studio.

I've like we're going to do this. That not one 212 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.120 time where you like in my head being there because it's not that you don't 213 00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:04.799 want to say. There's a lot of stuff going on to it. Yeah, 214 00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.840 with you and I think I'm gonna make the guys do accents for like 215 00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:15.399 the first hour.

They do, so it's on 221 00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:47.320 them. It don't last for like forty seconds.
