Episode RV028!
This episode covers the myths, the for-real and the crazy, crazy things that people do and use to try to get high!
We took a break from the sobriety and recovery topics to have a little fun and get into the most obscure, wild, dangerous and straight up ridiculous stories of human beings doing stupid shit to try and get high. Are all of them true? No! Are all of them dumb? Yes! Are some of them deadly? Absolutely! Should you NOT try any of what we talk about in this episode yourself? Yes... or no, it's a poorly worded question so... Whatever "don't try this at home" means.
Enjoy!

U.S.A. Fail: Addiction Is Ravaging Our Veterans
Episode 23 of SHHRP on Radio Valencia
On this episode of The Sober Happy Hour | Radio Podcast!, the guys talk about a very sensitive subject. We don't like to think about the affects our perpetual state of war, in this country, has on our active duty and veteran military personnel. We are just grateful that there's no chance any of us will get drafted. Let them fight the wars, let them get deployed a dozen times, let them watch their friends and fellow soldiers get maimed, killed, captured and tortured. And if and when they get home, ignore them, don't hire them, and forget about the promises we made to them when they volunteered for the job in the first place. Remind them that nobody FORCED them into the military, it was their choice. Is this how we, at The Sober Happy Hour feel? Absolutely not! So, we talked about it on the show.
We get into discussion about the numbers of veterans who are addicted, what's being done to help and what we can try to do to prevent it. We also spend time talking about the inescapable reality that our soldiers are going to need prescription pain medications, and what we might be able to do to prevent them coming home from war and addict. We even get into a very deep conversation about veteran suicide and the drug and alcohol connection. All of this and more on this episode of The Sober Happy Hour | Radio Podcast!
