Not The Normies

We are a group of people sharing our experience with recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. Not all paths are smooth...

Our show is very organic, unscripted talk about our past and everyday life. We just sit in front of the microphone and start talking.

Our hope is to share with others what recovery can look like and to show the face of addiction loud and proud so the \"Normies\" (Folks without addictions) can understand us a little better, and those seeking help can find a pathway to recovery.

At times we interview professionals in the field of recovery to share the resources and support available.

We hope you enjoy listening!

Yes, the choice to quit is hard. We talk about how our choice is there deep down in our hearts but all the many ways our brains trick us. We discuss how education can help us make good choices and also how our brains can continue to tell us to use one more time...
