Customer Reviews
Changed my perspective
I am a fellow AA member since 2019 I was in rehab and have a similar story to that of Darren. I am beyond blessed to have found recovering athletes such as these two. These podcast shows have re-sparked in me a greater focus on my addiction recovery.
I was clean for 2 years since 2019 and relapsed in 2021 but after hearing these podcast I was able to regain focus and clarity on what is it that I want to do in my life these two and all those interviewed have just been a blessing in my life God has placed them in my life for a reason even though it’s just through social media and podcast it has made a huge difference big shoutout and thank you to both 🤘
Currently clean 4 years from all Narcotics and 8 months from alcohol 🔥
Waller Monotone
I was surprised to find that Waller is so dry. I expected a dynamic personality, but it turns out that he brings nothing to a microphone.
I Love This Podcast
These two voices of sanity lead the podcast guest to inspire through their Come Back stories. Thank you for the inspiration and I hope to listen to many more!
