This week, I’m joined by the incredibly talented (and equally hilarious) Levy Lee Simon—a playwright, actor, and proud New Yorker with a story that’s part cautionary tale, part comeback legend. From sipping leftover cocktails at family parties to starring in Broadway plays while dodging crack dealers (no, really), Levy opens up about addiction, parenting, homelessness, redemption, and the magical weirdness of early sobriety. We laugh about AA business cards (don’t ask) and reflect on how far we’ve come since those raw, early days. It’s emotional, it’s inspiring, and yes, it’s funny—because if we don’t laugh about this stuff, what are we even doing?
