In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast—the #1 sober podcast since 2014—we take a hard but honest look at a new bill that would deport undocumented immigrants caught driving under the influence.This isn't about politics or taking sides, public safety, personal responsibility, and sobriety. We talk about how alcohol-fueled decisions can destroy lives, regardless of legal status, and how we can do better as a society.We also ask some deeper questions:Why is drunk driving still so normalized in many communities, legal status or not? And what kind of sober leadership is needed to shift that culture?You can be compassionate toward people chasing the American dream and still hold the line on dangerous behavior.Tune in for a thoughtful, no-nonsense conversation with a few laughs thrown in because hey, it's That Sober Guy, and we've been keeping it real since 2014.

Writer and caregiver Jennifer N. Levin was 32 when her father was diagnosed with a rare degenerative illness. As she struggled with few resources and little support, she created Caregiver Collective, a national online support group for millennial caregivers. * In this episode, Jennifer is joined by CIIS Assistant Professor in the Integral Counseling Psychology program Emily Marinelli in a conversation exploring our current culture of care and the impact it has on millennial caregivers. * Jennifer shares insights from her latest book Generation Care, which offers wisdom from her own experience and her support group, Caregiver Collective. Jennifer details the urgency of caregiving, the financial burden for caregivers, and ambiguous loss caregivers experience. She also offers a roadmap to the types of solutions that can begin helping people now as well as build future policies. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on April 16th, 2025.

Devyn explores the significance of headspace, mental triggers, and physical props like masks, fake weapons, and stage blood to evoke genuine fear while maintaining some semblance of safety. He highlights creativity, resourcefulness, and understanding personal responses as key to effective fear play, which combines psychological and physical skills to foster deep connections and excitement.Devyn offers practical advice on sourcing props, building trust, and managing risks, emphasizing the importance of compatibility, consent, and preparation. He shares personal stories about his relationship with his property Guan-Xuan and how they incorporate fear into daily life and BDSM dynamics.

Is alcohol finally losing its cool? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we dive into a question more and more people are starting to ask: Is booze becoming the new cigarette? Once glamorized, now scrutinized, alcohol might be heading for a cultural downgrade.We break down the data showing the massive shift in drinking trends, including the rise of non-alcoholic drinks, declining alcohol sales, and how more high-performing men are ditching the booze to level up in business, relationships, and mental clarity. From concerts to ball games to boardrooms, being the sober guy is no longer lame. In fact, it's becoming a superpower.You'll hear real talk, a few laughs, and maybe even a flashback to that old baseball coach who smelled like a distillery and told you to “walk it off.” Spoiler alert: He's not the vibe anymore.Actionable Takeaways:Rethink the “normal” social script—being sober doesn't mean being boring.Start tracking how alcohol actually impacts your energy, mood, and performance.Try swapping booze for a quality NA beer or sparkling hop water next time you're out.

A coming out story... perfect for Pride month! We'll be taking another short break in July, and we'll be back on August 8th. Amelia needs to focus on getting through her radiation treatment.

Hollywood doesn't exactly have a stellar track record when it comes to portraying mental illness in a sensitive, honest, and appropriately complex way (think Psycho or the notorious caffeine pill episode of Saved by the Bell). But the top show on Netflix right now, Ginny & Georgia went to great lengths to show mental health conditions honestly. The series tells the story of Georgia, a mother with a traumatic background, Ginny, her daughter with a habit of self-harming, and it includes characters such as a neighbor boy and Ginny's love interest, Marcus, with a persistent major depressive disorder. Show creator Sarah Lampert talks with us about how, with the help of a doctor of psychology and consulting from the advocacy group Mental Health America, she and her creative staff were able to tell honest stories that were moving without being exploitive or sensationalized.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

"Beneath the Lilypad" is singer-songwriter Alexandra Savior's third album, but her first in five years. Several years ago, she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, type 1. That's a condition marked with manic highs that can last for weeks or months as well as crushing lows of depression, she's had both, you'll hear about that. She's also dealt with psychosis, and has spent time in an in-patient facility. That mental health journey has informed her work as a songwriter and a musician and inspired the songs on the new album. She just turned 30 but she's been performing since high school when she was more or less discovered on YouTube by Courtney Love who helped launch her career.Thank you to all our listeners who support the show as monthly members of Maximum Fun.Check out our I'm Glad You're Here and Depresh Mode merchandise at the brand new merch website MaxFunStore.com!Hey, remember, you're part of Depresh Mode and we want to hear what you want to hear about.

Dr. Najwa Zebian is an activist, educator, speaker, author and relationship expert. Dr. Zebian began to write in an effort to connect with and heal her first students, a group of young refugees, but found that she was also writing to heal herself.

Ross has spent five remarkable decades in activism. She's deprogrammed white supremacists and taught convicted rapists the principles of feminism and it's worked because the power of her message comes from who she is and what she's lived through. * In this episode, Loretta is joined by CIIS Women's Spirituality professor Dr. Alka Arora for a powerful and inspiring conversation about her life's work and her latest book Calling In, a memoir-manifesto-handbook about how to rein in the excesses of cancel culture so we can truly communicate and solve problems together. Loretta discusses how using conversation instead of conflict—by focusing on your shared values over a desire for punishment—is the more strategic choice if you want to make real change. * This episode was recorded during a live online event on April 2nd, 2025.

Rep. Andrea Salinas (D-Ore.) is one of four chairs of the bipartisan Mental Health Caucus in the U.S. House of Representatives, a 93-member group of Republicans and Democrats pledging to fight stigma, improve accessibility, and generally make the country's mental health better. But as the Trump administration floats huge cuts to Medicaid and other social services and as the tone of politics in America gets more divided and vitriolic, does a well-intentioned group like that really have a chance to overcome all that is standing in the way of progress? We talk to Rep. Salinas about her work, her connection to mental health, and what the future might hold.Also in this episode, we are joined by listener Joslynn in Dayton, Ohio, a member of our Preshies group on Facebook, for a moving conversation about her depression.
