The first episode of Tragedy to Triumph wasn’t my story. It was a conversation between my friends Matt Neumann and Michael McKiernan in the 96 Rock studio. These two guys that could help me get it started and understood how important it was to me. Matt a great storyteller who bares his soul and Michael one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. In light of Michael’s death, I wanted to release this to our friends, families, and anyone that is struggling.  Not for attention to me but more to the fact that addiction is real and it’s stealing the lives of people we love. It’s also nice to hear Michael’s voice. I’ve always known the real possibility of relapse or death for one of my friends (and even myself for that matter), but each one of these stories is important to share and that’s what I will continue to do. This previously unreleased conversation is now titled: SAINT MICHAELAmazing stories from people in Recovery hosted by Aaron Laine.
