About this listen

 Comedian Mike Glazer joins Forrest for one of the wildest and most honest episodes yet — from smoking weed with Snoop Dogg to selling opium in Missouri, piercing himself during a blackout, and somehow ending up trying out for Team USA roller hockey. Now over 100 days sober, Mike opens up about addiction, lying to yourself, weed culture, ego, losing his identity, ice cream binges, and what it's like to rebuild your life while still performing in comedy clubs that are basically bars with spotlights. They dig into drugs, alcohol, mushrooms, weed fame, strip-club sponsorships, weight struggles, trauma, and the strange path that led him from the rink to the stage. It's raw, funny, and full of insane true stories — all grounded in real recovery. 🎧 If you've battled addiction or love a "how is this even real?" life story, this episode is for you. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes about addiction, recovery, mental health, and the chaos of being human.
