After 20 years of debauchery and more than 30 years of sobriety, it's time I share my stories. I'm sitting down with fellow entertainers and dreamers to pull back the curtain. From battling addiction and alcoholism, to navigating the chaos of fame, or just surviving the madness of it all, we'll give you an honest look at the ups and downs of chasing dreams in this business.
