  • 546: The Truth About Weed: Why It’s Not as Safe as You Think
    Jul 6 2025

    Do you have a family member/loved one who struggles with addiction?: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc

    In this episode, Tom, Ben, and Dr. Tamberi talk about why weed (marijuana) is not as harmless as many people say it is—especially for young people. A lot of big influencers and celebrities are telling kids that weed is totally safe, but we don’t agree.

    We’ve seen many people come into treatment because of weed, and it’s not just “no big deal.” Some struggle with serious anxiety, depression, and even scary thoughts after using weed a lot.

    We talk about real stories, the science behind how weed affects the brain, and why it’s important to know the truth. If you're a parent, a teen, or just someone trying to understand what’s really going on, this episode is for you.

  • 545: Sage FINALLY got sober when....Story of inspiration and hope
    Jul 4 2025

    Do you have a family member/loved one who struggles with addiction?: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc

    In this powerful and emotional episode, we sit down with Sage, who shares her journey of trying everything to get clean and sober — from treatment centers across the country to an experience in Mexico involving ibogaine. Despite her desperate efforts, nothing seemed to work. Sage opens up about the moment she cried out to God, asking Him to just let her die — and how that moment of surrender led to real, lasting change. This episode is filled with hope, faith, and raw truth — a must-listen for anyone who has a loved one struggling with addiction.
