Life is a Gamble - Part 1 (The Beginnings: Childhood Trips, Influence, and My First Gambling Loss) Peek Behind the Curtain
-
- Comedia en vivo
I have been a gambling addict for as far back as I can remember. As of March 25th, 2020 I hit my one-year mark of being "sober" from gambling. In this multi-part podcast, I am taking you back to my early days of when I believe my gambling problem started kicking in, through the highs and lows of a life spent at the card table. Comedy has taken me to many casino shows over the years...and having disposable income with nothing to do 23-hours a day can lead to trouble. For years, I learned how to hold them and how to fold them...and I finally had to learn "when to walk away".
In this first part of many regarding my recovery from my gambling addiction, I walk you through my beginnings as I try to identify the root of how this addiction took shape. You'll hear all about my early influences in gambling from when I was 5-10 years old. Listen to me share the story of my first real gambling loss and how I broke down crying in front of one of my friends about it at 11-years old. Hear about how this addiction might even tie into the world of doing stand-up comedy. It's a detailed narrative of how a gambling addiction can start and it's only the beginning.
