Sober Not Mature – Wrestling with Our Demons

In the realm of recovery, it’s not uncommon to hear stories of individuals wrestling with their own personal demons. This struggle is at the heart of the latest episode from the “Sober Not Mature” podcast, where hosts Mike and Bill engage in candid discussions about addiction recovery, using humor as a tool to help others navigate through their own journeys.

On this particular episode, they had the pleasure of hosting two extraordinary guests: Chris Dreisbach and Shannon Moore. Their stories are not just about sobriety; they’re about resilience, determination, and the power of transformation.

Chris Dreisbach, known for his inspiring work in the recovery community, recently brought to life a powerful documentary, “A Night of Recovery: Live from the Moravian Center.” The film features the sobriety stories of wrestling stars Jesus “Ricardo” Rodriguez, Shannon Moore, and Curt “Dirty Dango” Hussey. It’s a raw, unfiltered look into the struggles and triumphs of these individuals as they wrestle not only in the ring, but also with their personal demons.

The documentary is available on Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Google Play, making it accessible for anyone seeking inspiration or understanding about the journey to sobriety.

Shannon Moore, another guest on the podcast, is not only a featured individual in the documentary but also an influential figure in the wrestling world. His story is a testament to the fact that sobriety is not just about abstinence; it’s about confronting one’s demons, seeking help, and ultimately, reclaiming control over one’s life.

The episode is a powerful exploration of these stories, but as the hosts say, “I could write a book about everything that they are doing and everything that we talked about, but I will just let the episode speak for itself.”

For listeners who want to delve deeper into these stories, the hosts encourage checking out the documentary and visiting the official website at www.nightofrecovery.com. They also recommend following Chris and Shannon on Instagram to stay updated on their ongoing efforts in promoting sobriety and recovery.

In the battle against addiction, there’s no such thing as a small victory. Every step taken towards sobriety, every demon wrestled into submission, is a testament to human resilience and strength. This episode of “Sober Not Mature” is a reminder of that truth, offering a beacon of hope for those who are wrestling with their own demons.
