Comments
I know this is a bit late, but I want to thank Sean and Lesley for this episode. It was the reason I realized I needed to get sober, and a few days ago I got my 30 day chip. I’ve been a fan for years, and I’m truly grateful for this one.

2023-08-30 18:57:09 +0000 UTCMy last name being Gifford, and called 'Giff' for most of my youth, I am pretty freaked out by that arrest story. Like I'm a quantum superposition of the two of them, that could collapse at any moment 😳
Sean

2023-08-28 23:50:08 +0000 UTCFWIW, one man's opinion: I think these eps can run long and don't need to be rushed, we're here for it! Lots to cover and all compelling.
Emily K
2023-08-28 23:15:05 +0000 UTCThis was amazing. I love the honesty and realistic perspective on addiction without sounding preachy. I know it’s a bit of a conflict within for Sean to be real and vulnerable but I think I speak for everyone when I say we really love it. And this podcast.

Ryan
2023-08-28 20:16:27 +0000 UTCIf I could like this more I would. We aren't alone. Even though we tell ourselves how special and unique we are the gene in us is so predictable. It also lends to some of the most creative thoughtful people. So thanks for this episode.

2023-08-28 20:11:37 +0000 UTCSo good - if this were unlocked I think this could be meaningful for a lot of people to listen to

2023-08-28 15:27:45 +0000 UTCLove Leslie Arfin. I just requested that the Denver Library purchase her memoir so I can read it.
Margaret
2023-08-28 14:01:10 +0000 UTCAm I only one hoping for the strike to go on forever? Candid Sean is great. I’ve been really enjoying this series.
