Send us Fan Mail Today, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Michaud, the host of the "Leaving Crazy Town" podcast and a clinical psychologist who specializes in addiction and codependency, to break down how substance abuse affects more than just the person using.

You’ll find Couple O' Nukes: Self-Improvement For Mental Health, Addiction, Fitness, & Faith is less a lecture and more a raw, ongoing conversation. Host Mr. Whiskey brings a perspective forged from a life that refuses to fit into a single box-veteran, author, preacher, and comedian-which means you’re getting a blend of hard-won personal experience, practical science, and unexpected humor. This podcast doesn’t shy away from the gritty topics that shape our daily lives, from navigating addiction and mental health struggles to the role of faith and physical fitness in building resilience. The aim is to pull real lessons from difficult dialogues, creating a sense of community around shared challenges. Listening feels like sitting in on a candid talk where honesty matters more than easy answers, and where the goal is meaningful change, not just passive inspiration. Mr. Whiskey’s approach is grounded in the belief that self-improvement is a multifaceted journey, and each episode tackles that journey with purpose and a refreshing lack of pretense. Tune in for a voice that amplifies stories often left unheard, all while keeping the tone genuine and accessible.
