It’s gotta be tough to live in the shadow of a famous sibling - your identity always somehow tied up in theirs. It got especially complicated for my next guest, because his famous brother, Chris Farley, died of a drug overdose and then he found himself guarding his brother’s legacy through the Chris Farley Foundation - a non-profit dedicated to the prevention of substance abuse - while he was enduring his own struggle with alcoholism at the same time. Despite being surrounded by recovery experts, he came to recovery in his own personal way and is now the director for community outreach for recovery.com - an organization that helps connect patients with a recovery path that is right for them. Won’t you please welcome Tom Farley. you can check out recovery.com here... Recovery.com…

Joe Hart is the balm you need in these fractious times! here are the original notes! I’ve wanted to interview Joe Hart from the moment I started making this podcast as he has always exuded a powerful empathy for everyone around him even when things in his own life were clearly not going his way. He grew up in New York in a house his dad built with his own hands and eventually moved to Los Angeles to pursue his acting career. And it was only after enduring a series of confouning drunken mishaps out on the road with a touring company that one of his colleagues came to him and suggested, “you don’t have to live like this.” It reminds me there’s help and there’s grace everywhere.…

Lindsey Van Wagner grew up in and around Washington, DC and like so many of her contemporaries joined the federal government after college. But the nine to five slog really wasn’t for her. A gnawing sense that she needed something more drove her to act out with booze and relationships until she hit her breaking point and sought help through a twelve step program. Ironically, it was only once she was sober that she really felt the emptiness of the life she had made for herself and decided to walk away from everything she had built to start again from scratch in St. Croix. She’s recently published a new book, Spirit Vigilante, in which she shares her own experiences on her spiritual path and some of the tools and techniques that have aided her…

I interviewed Nena about two years ago...tho it feels like a lifetime. We were just coming out of covid and it was one of the first times I'd been back in the room with a guest. I would say that in the interim, interest in hallucingens has only grown as mushrooms seem to have quickly become both the medicine of choice and the party drug of choice.... here are the original notes! I've been wanting to do this interview for years.... Nena is a scion of one of America's most famous families and grew up in the rarefied air of upper east side NYC where that legacy was mostly confounding. She initially started out as an interior designer, and we met in LA in the aughts when she was exploring the entertainment biz and we were both aimlessly navigating the cocktail scene, here. We lost touch when I had kids and she was nearly killed by a series of flesh eating bacterial infections. And when we reconnected - both now sober - I asked her if she was still decorating, and she said, "No, I'm a shaman." I love second acts, and this one - that takes us into the world of sacred rituals and medicines (yes, we're talking hallucinogens) is fascinating.…

Reunited, the two sisters started working together as dancers at various LA strip clubs. But the pressure to stay young and hot eventually led her to pick up speed to maintain her figure which took its toll on her body not to mention her soul. Eventually, she picked up the bottle and entered the world of sugar daddies before an important mother figure in her life helped her get sober and finally live out her life long dream of becoming a writer.

I’ve wanted to interview Joe Hart from the moment I started making this podcast as he has always exuded a powerful empathy for everyone around him even when things in his own life were clearly not going his way. He grew up in New York in a house his dad built with his own hands and eventually moved to Los Angeles to pursue his acting career. And it was only after enduring a series of confouning drunken mishaps out on the road with a touring company that one of his colleagues came to him and suggested, “you don’t have to live like this.” It reminds me there’s help and there’s grace everywhere.…

Love the radical turn this second half of Mark's story suddenly takes. Really did. not. see it coming. I haven't seen Mark since he recorded this. We traded emails during the pandemic. He'd had an accident of some sort and was in a Motel in West LA and needed a ride to the doctor. I couldn't take him but offered to send an uber but his phone was dying and I haven't heard from him since. Mark! Get in touch... This is part 2 of a two part interview I chose to air in its entirety because the first part feels like the kind of drug misadventure that movies are made from, but this second part is something different and it explores the kind of spiritual awakening you don't hear a lot about these days. It's radically different, I think, and yet bears so many tantalizing similarities. You can support this podcast at my Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/thedrunkalogues…

Mark Christopher grew up in a world of extreme privilege and then parlayed his connections and street smarts into a thriving weed empire. Despite multiple brushes with death and the law, a wildly inflated sense of self kept him convinced he could manage an addiction that would eventually rob him of everything.

I've been wanting to do this interview for years.... Nena is a scion of one of America's most famous families and grew up in the rarefied air of upper east side NYC where that legacy was mostly confounding. She initially started out as an interior designer, and we met in LA in the aughts when she was exploring the entertainment biz and we were both aimlessly navigating the cocktail scene, here. We lost touch when I had kids and she was nearly killed by a series of flesh eating bacterial infections. And when we reconnected - both now sober - I asked her if she was still decorating, and she said, "No, I'm a shaman." I love second acts, and this one - that takes us into the world of sacred rituals and medicines (yes, we're talking hallucinogens) is fascinating. https://www.patreon.com/thedrunkalogues…
