RFK Jr. and Theo Von having a raw, real conversation about recovery that hits different.
RFK Jr. (43 years sober): “I used to snort cocaine off toilet seats. I’m not scared of a germ. If I don’t go to a meeting every day, this disease will kill me.”
Theo Von: “I go to meetings because I forget that people care about me… and that I care about them. It recharges the battery.”
They both talked about how meetings kept them going even during COVID — moving from a bank basement to a playhouse that later burned down. No excuses. Just survival and helping others.
It’s a powerful reminder that real recovery isn’t about perfection — it’s about showing up, even when everything else is falling apart.
What’s one thing that’s helped you stay grounded through tough times?
JJ Redick didn’t storm out. He exposed the echo chamber show. The problem isn’t his temper — it’s a media culture that confuses ‘gotcha’ questions with journalism. Y’all begged for new voices in coaching… now you’re mad they’re not playing the old PR game.
