Sober Exposure

It’s here! Dave, co-founder and host of the Dopey podcast, the biggest recovery podcast in the world, joins sober exposure . We talk about the humble beginnings of the show, fun stories of celebrity guests to losing his longtime friend and co-host to addiction.

Bad Boy Brian D joins Sober Exposure live in studio to reminisce about our good old days. We share our funny war stories of our addiction progression to the point of Brian’s severe brain injury that should have killed him.

It’s a story of inspiration that will prove the miracle of staying sober.

Sober Exposure is excited to bring you the founder and front man of legendary 90's hip hop group, House of Pain. Daniel O'Connor, aka Danny Boy, is not afraid to expose it all, from his rough childhood in the streets of New York to his hip-hop days to his tragedies and fights with addiction.

Danny Boy knows what it was like to rise to the top to then fall down only to pick himself back up again and maintain his sobriety for over 16 years.

 

Danny is now doing some incredible things with his passion projects, like The Outsiders Museum.

I sit down with Jeff Simone as we get raw and real about the opioid epidemic. Jeff shares his story about being a pharmacist and skimming off the top, to his rough detox and how he eventually recovered to now becoming a Dietary Supplement Advisor.

We banter over the California Sober trend and discuss harm reduction. Real addicts can never be California Sober.

Touring since he was 19 including international touring with Jennifer Lopez on a private plane. Sitting in silence at a meditation school in the mountains for weeks, then getting a DUI and aggravated assault with deadly weapon charge before going to jail.

 

Got sober, released a solo album and went back to school. He is now in a PhD program for criminology and teaching music in prison.

 

 

 

If you would have told me, when I was 21, that I would be talking recovery with the rock icon Jimmy D’Anda, drummer of the BulletBoys, I would say “you’re high.” 

Living the rockstar lifestyle, drugs and alcohol were never far away. With hard work he is now a role model to many and still rockin hard.

In this episode we talk to Jimmy about everything from the early days of rock n’ roll glam on the sunset strip to his hilarious tales with Eddie Van Halen.

He has continued to maintain his sobriety over the last 20 years while being a powerful example for other addicts to follow his lead. His dedication and integrity for his own recovery resonates with anyone who is lucky enough to be brought along on his recovery journey.

 

Dealing with a son with substance abuse, Shannon C, shares how she avoided becoming codependent which ultimately turned her son's life around. Shannon gives real world examples of how letting an addict face consequences can save them. Working in the mental health field, although not specializing in addiction, she used her experience to enact a plan to avoid codependency, avoid enabling and keeping her son alive.

Join me as I sit down for a cuppa with Chris Nell. I share my story from early in life to my radio career to rehabs to life-altering events that helped shape me into who I am today. Some of my unknown stories will be revealed.

 

Strap in for a laugh, a cry and a Wylde ride.
