Reno has always had an interesting history. It's always been filled with interesting people. This is the story of the modern Reno, the one filled with people and places that make Reno, and Northern Nevada, one of the most diverse areas in the country.

    Addiction and Addiction Treatment Part 1

    The only thing we've done so far is interviews, not anything about me. Today, we change that. This is part 1 or a couple, probably, because of the length.I've lived in Reno since September 1998, I moved from Key West Florida. If I hadn't moved, I would have died, I'm sure of it. Subsequently, I've been sober a long time, since New Years Eve, 1998, for drugs, January 25th 1999 for alcohol and April 2nd for cigarettes.Addiction has ALWAYS been a part of me. Since I was a teenager I have always made bad choices, impetuous choices, dumb choices and just flat out wrong choices. As I tell people, this place helped me heal and to a certain degree, I'm still healing.In 2011, I made a Wordpress blog and started writing down the ridiculous things I did, thoughts on them and why I was doing that. Well, we are a decade later and why am I rehashing them? To give a little context to my personal existence.Here is a story of me, my history, my history in Reno/Tahoe  and my personal battle with addiction.. Support the show

    No, he's not running for mayor. Yes, he could, and he'd probably be pretty respectable, but no, he's not running for mayor.Diaz is a good friend and someone who's been helping people in the greater Reno metroplex for damn near 20 years. With Step 2, the Eddy house and on the state board of gambling and addiction treatment, Diaz has been helping people grow for a long time now.Did I mention he is NOT running for mayor? He's not, you know how I know this? I asked and he told me, no, he's not running for mayor.Helping people change is one of the most important parts of being a member of a community. We are all different, contrary to what some people say. We all change differently. In my case, I've been in addition recovery for 2 decades, that doesn't mean I'm done, that means I'm good for this second/minute/hour/day/week/month. No more no less.Find Diaz on Facebook and Instagram.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/TheRenoPodcast)

This is achieved by Black-led organizing & building self determination for Reno's Black community.What that doesn't tell you is anything about the woman who runs the project.

    You can't be all things to everyone, can you?Amid death threats from business owners in Lake Tahoe about her color, die-ins in downtown Reno, being a brilliant singer and a general bad ass, Lily Baran spent a few minutes meeting, eating dinner and talking about what's going on in her world.Not only is Lily a talented jazz singer/vocal coach/teacher/dancer/activist, hell of a list of accomplishments, she's also a dear friend and one I'd do anything for. If she's willing to put her neck on the line for the community at large, we should ALL back her with some of that vigor.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/TheRenoPodcast)

    What the hell!?! Another Podcast! Reno Nevada, located in the northern desert has a host of things to do, food, casinos, Lake Tahoe. Well, at least sitting in a casino USED to be a thing, we'll see what happens after June 3rd. Ahhh, Lake Tahoe… You know, Skiing or Riding, Hiking, Biking, Kayaking, blah blah blah. These are all fantastic things, really! I love them, you love them. But there has to be more than just walking around and looking at beautiful scenery, right? There's more to Reno and the Truckee Meadows than Lake Tahoe, Strippers, casinos and the desert that's for sure! So much more!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/TheRenoPodcast)
