Podcasts about drug addiction

Welcome to Episode 286 of the Spun Today Podcast, the show anchored in writing but truly unlimited in its scope. I'm your host, Tony Ortiz, and today we're diving into something both personal and nostalgic: a throwback tribute episode to my good friend and Spun Today alum, Pablo Mosquera Jr.   In this heartfelt installment, we revisit one of our annual beach day recordings—this one taking place on Coney Island during that odd window in the summer of 2020, right in the midst of the COVID pandemic. Pablo and I reflect on everything from the challenges and isolation of lockdown, the mental health impact of working from home, and our predictions about the ever-evolving work landscape, to our perennial struggles getting to Governor's Island for a bike ride and, of course, our shared love of breaking the monotony with a little weekday hooky at the beach.   Expect a conversation that ranges far and wide, just like the show itself. We cover road trips, favorite drinks, and the transformative power of routine escapes—plus the creative, life-affirming benefits of unplugging from work and leaning into tradition, even during uncertain times. There's even a story about a real-life lifeguard rescue and a heap of pop culture moments, from The Sopranos to Patrick Swayze classics, all through the unique lens of creativity, inspiration, and the everyday writer's perspective.   So whether you're here for the writing talk, the laughs, or some much-needed motivation, this episode invites you to reminisce, recharge, and most of all, keep spinning creativity into your life—no matter what the world throws your way.   Let's get into it.   The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing & Random Rants, but unlimited in scope.  Give it a whirl.    Twitter: https://twitter.com/spuntoday Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spuntoday/ Website: http://www.spuntoday.com/home Newsletter: http://www.spuntoday.com/subscribe   Links referenced in this episode:     Follow Pablo on Instagram: @pabs711   Fu*k , That's Delicious S04E10 With Action Bronson - Bronx To Farm Cuisine | MUNCHIES & VICE TV: https://youtu.be/cwEjj6dALlk?t=420   Lillo Brancato Jr on 'Bronx Tale', Drug Addiction, Cop Getting Killed, Prison (Full Interview): https://youtu.be/-oqFY7vTEIM   Atlanta: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4288182/   Red Dawn: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087985/   Toy Soldiers: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103112/   The Movies That Made Us: https://www.netflix.com/title/80990849   Point Break: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102685/   Talking Sopranos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDUH23ccuK5a2rhKqE1HcEw   Two dope scenes from True Romance: 1.     The Sicilian Scene: https://youtu.be/S3yon2GyoiM 2.     Fight scene Part 1: https://youtu.be/VxRpMphMmXM & Part 2: https://youtu.be/2l1hDC34gTc   Listen to episode #283 (re-release of #107 – Beach Day with Pablo): Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/283-cycles-of-life-loss-and-stories-honoring/id924328532?i=1000709665351 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/44wHccKC8Jpuu3eYLd1fO5?si=R7EH9dQZSAKFutXeSF80YQ&nd=1&dlsi=e830def4b0bd401c YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lfWTjGP2JY   Get your Podcast Started Today! https://signup.libsyn.com/?promo_code=SPUN (Use Promo code SPUN and get up to 2-months of free service!)

As leaders, it's tempting to buy into the false narrative that once we've been in recovery for a while, or stepped into leadership, we somehow have "arrived" and Open Share is no longer needed. That's for "those people" and not for me. But, as leaders, what are the things that we need to be aware of and what's the value of our being active and wise participants in Open Share? How does this correlate with shepherding those God has called us to? In this podcast, Rodney Holmstrom, Global Field Director of Celebrate Recovery, walks us through some things to consider if we struggle in this area as a leader.

Khalil Rafati is one of the most brutally honest and spiritually grounded entrepreneurs you'll ever hear from. After surviving heroin addiction, homelessness, and years of childhood abuse, he made a pact with God to become rich and honor his dying mother.

In this podcast, Khalil opens up about his darkest moments, the faith that kept him going, and how he turned pain into a mission far greater than himself.Hosted by Ausha.

In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, we explore the biggest cannabis news stories from the UK, Europe, and the US: Macky covers a revealing report from Guernsey, suggesting that medicinal cannabis may be widely used for recreational purposes. He also shares a troubling case from Bradford, where a man exploited a woman to run a cannabis grow operation. Margaret explores the latest research into the health benefits and risks of cannabis, breaking down both sides of the ongoing debate. She also dives into a new U.S. bill that could potentially outlaw cannabis edibles, sparking concern among medical and recreational users alike. Also, she covers a major data point from the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, which reveals that at least 24 million Europeans used cannabis in 2024—a number that raises both eyebrows and policy questions.

The enemy can be deceiving and very sneaky in finding different ways to try to sabotage our recovery. It's interesting and scary to think about how the enemy might scheme to get us off track from the health and growth of our recovery process through a variety of different means. We're beginning a series talking about different ways the enemy might try to do this. In today's episode, Rodney Holmstrom, Global Field Director of Celebrate Recovery, visits with Andy on different tactics of the enemy we need to be aware of and how we can combat them in God's power.

The wraparound strategy is a comprehensive approach to combating addiction that reframes it as a treatable disease rather than a crime. At its core, the strategy replaces punitive measures with mandatory treatment programs for nonviolent drug offenders, beginning with a minimum 90-day stay in state-of-the-art facilities. These facilities are designed as multidisciplinary recovery hubs offering medical detoxification, psychological care, vocational training, family therapy, and long-term aftercare support. Judges have the authority to extend treatment up to a year based on individual progress, ensuring that care is tailored to the severity of the addiction. The program emphasizes accountability and structured recovery, aiming to reduce recidivism while addressing the root causes of addiction.In addition to treatment, the strategy incorporates robust prevention efforts focused on education, harm reduction, and community-building. Comprehensive drug education programs, mental health support, and initiatives to address systemic inequities like poverty and housing instability work to reduce the demand for drugs. Coupled with international partnerships to disrupt supply chains, military interventions against cartels, and financial measures to dismantle illicit networks, the wraparound strategy attacks the crisis from every angle. By prioritizing treatment, prevention, and systemic reform, it offers a transformative path to reduce addiction rates, save lives, and restore communities across the nation.(commercial at 10:15)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

About M2 THE ROCK - MICHAEL MOLTHAN:I'm Michael Molthan, host of The M2 The Rock Show—one of the fastest-growing podcasts and shows on self-improvement, mental health, addiction recovery, and spiritual transformation.

From being a successful luxury homebuilder to falling into addiction, homelessness, crime, and eventually 27 mugshots and prison, my life was in absolute chaos.Addiction was my temporary escape from childhood trauma, but it only led to destruction.It wasn't until I hit the lowest point imaginable that I finally found true freedom, redemption, and purpose. After an unexpected early release from prison in 2017, I walked 300 miles back to Dallas to turn myself in—only to be miraculously pardoned and told to “pay it forward.”And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.My MissionI believe that rock bottom is not the end—it's a stepping stone to something greater.My goal is to redefine what "rock bottom" means by helping others rebuild their Spirit, Mind, and Body. On M2 The Rock, I speak openly about trauma, addiction, recovery, and the power of transformation. I don't shy away from topics like:✅ Trauma & Addiction – Understanding the root causes✅ Self-Sabotage & Mental Health – Breaking negative cycles✅ Codependency & Enabling – How relationships impact recovery✅ 12-Step Programs & Spiritual Healing – Finding true freedom✅ Religious Trauma & Personal Growth – Healing from past wounds"Everyone Is An Addict."Whether it's substances, work, validation, or negative thinking, we all have something we struggle with.But recovery is possible, and transformation is real.
