Host: Michal Charles aka MMC13 Guest: Jonathan Schwartz   In this episode of Sobertown Podcast, host Michal interviews Jonathan Schwartz, former Hollywood financial advisor turned addiction advocate and sober warrior. Jonathan shares his journey from managing the wealth of celebrities like Beyoncé, Linkin Park and Alanis Morissette to battling his own addictions with gambling and drugs, which led to embezzlement of millions of dollars and eventual imprisonment. He discusses his childhood trauma, the impact of addiction on his life, and his path to redemption through recovery. Now a licensed therapist, Jonathan focuses on helping others overcome addiction by connecting with their emotions and resolving past traumas. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, accountability, and community support in achieving and maintaining sobriety.   Jonathan Todd Schwartz, once a towering figure in Hollywood's elite financial circles, lived a life that many could only dream of. As a power entertainment business manager at GSO Business Management, Schwartz was entrusted with managing the wealth of some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, including Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Alanis Morissette, Linkin Park, Halsey, and Gwyneth Paltrow. His reputation as one of Hollywood's most "trusted" financial advisors earned him the moniker "diva whisperer," a reflection of his ability to cater to the unique needs of his high-profile clients. However, beneath the surface of this seemingly perfect life, Schwartz was hiding a dark secret. Consumed by a monstrous drug habit and an uncontrollable gambling addiction, Schwartz began to embezzle millions from his clients to fund his destructive lifestyle. His double life was a carefully constructed house of cards, built on lies and deceit, which ultimately came crashing down in 2016 when Alanis Morissette discovered that Schwartz had stolen over $4.7 million from her accounts. The fallout was swift and brutal. Schwartz's crimes were exposed, leading to his arrest and subsequent conviction. The once-celebrated financial guru was now a disgraced criminal, reviled by the very industry that once revered him. His actions not only ruined his own life but also brought significant financial losses and reputational damage to GSO Business Management. But Schwartz's story doesn't end with his fall from grace. Since his release from prison in 2020, Schwartz has embarked on a journey of redemption. Sober and a co-chair of his local Gambler's Anonymous, he is determined to make amends for his past wrongdoings. Schwartz is now dedicated to proving that he is no longer the "defrauding monster" he once was, and is desperate to clear his name, particularly with his ex-wife and children, who continue to harbor doubts about his sincerity. Schwartz's life is a tale of extremes— from the heights of Hollywood success to the depths of criminal infamy. It raises the question: Can Jonathan truly change, or is this just another act in a long-running con? Schwartz's story is a compelling exploration of human nature, redemption, and the thin line between good and evil. In his own words, Schwartz acknowledges his flaws and the damage he has caused, but he remains committed to telling his story, hoping that it will serve as a cautionary tale for others and perhaps, one day, lead to his own redemption. His story is a modern-day parable, echoing the themes of the latest viral scammer tales like Inventing Anna, Tinder Swindler, and Bad Vegan—a once-in-a- lifetime narrative that promises to captivate and dominate public consciousness.  Altus Rehab Instagram: @therealjonathanschwartz     About Michal: Michal is an American podcaster and sober warrior who believes every recovery journey is as unique as the individual traveling it.

In this very special 100th episode of Talk Heathen, Jamie and Eric celebrate the 100th of things. The boys talk about creating videos, they get cgi glitter bombed, and super hyped about the 100th episode. Jamie has 100 things to do and has 100 extra energy. “Put your Peter 3:15 where your faith is punk.” Jamie is still hyped and this is what happens when he is hyped. Jamie has gone full Jamie. Happy 100th. Jamie makes a grand introduction of Vi and Vi joins Eric as co-host. After the dust settles, they take their first call. Adam in Ontario, (Save them Adam, you’re our only hope.) He first talks about how awesome Eric was on Hammered Out with Suris. He goes on to ask about how to approach his very religious parents about being gender fluid. Can Vi help him approach his family?The next caller, Phil from Oregon talks about a couple observations about Christianity. Saying Christ paid for our sins and how death is because of sin. If Christ paid for our sins, why is there still death? Can Eric help him come to grips with these observations? Eric also offers resources to help Phil continue his journey. The following caller, Jonathan in our home state of Texas. He asks about resources for a newly deconverted atheist. Vi asks what pulled him away from faith and by knowing this will help him find the appropriate resources to continue his lifelong journey. Eric follows that up with “I took a long detour into woo.” Could philosophy courses help Jonathan as well? Jonathan also asks if “coming out” would be a good idea given his current situation. If you experience trouble or financial difficulty when “coming out,” then don’t until you are in a more stable situation.The next caller, our first theist caller, Sain from Austin. (Why aren’t you at the library?) How do atheists have an objective for best/good or evil? Eric asks very pointed questions about standards of morality and what/who is evil. Is God evil? Is God moral? Can Sain provide a standard of well-being? Does God give reasons for genocide? How can you rationalize the answer to good/evil when you have justified genocide? Next in queue, we have Jonathan from Arizona. Following up on an email conversation between himself and Vi. Do we have consistency with what we consider as historical? Are we being objective and sincere with regards to the truth? If theists can’t come to the table on that, there’s no good reason to try to reason with them. Did historical Yeshua/Jesus exist? Should we care if he did? Eric responds to this line of questioning: “Prove to me that miracles are possible, then I will care.” Can Jonathan prove and explain this?Our last caller, Chad in Connecticut. Growing up Catholic, Chad never really was indoctrinated within the faith. Later in life, he decided to do research, discovered Aron Ra, and began to have conversations with theists in his area. He is being encountered with “oh you don’t know the facts” when he presents the facts he has discovered. Can Eric help him navigate this? Does God need me to have a degree of scholarship to believe in him? If someone wants to continue to move the goalposts during a discussion, get them to answer your questions, use active listening, and they will feel heard. By doing so, you give them tools to understand your position and possibly question their beliefs. An awesome image is then shown on screen. Love rings!
