Apply to Be a Guest

Your story might help someone recognize what they're going through, understand someone they love, or realize they have options.

Whether you've experienced addiction yourself, supported someone through it, or worked with people affected by it, I'd love to hear your perspective. You don't need a huge following or a perfectly wrapped-up story. You can be yourself, swear, laugh, and talk honestly. You choose what you're comfortable sharing.

Relaxed, not scripted

Conversations are easygoing. We don't over-produce or follow a rigid script.

You're in control of your story

You can decline any question or ask to pause. Boundaries and topics to avoid can be discussed beforehand.

Remote or in person

Record remotely, or in person in Riverside, California. Details are arranged after your application is reviewed.

Before we record

A guest release is handled separately before recording. Applying doesn't guarantee an interview or publication.

Who you are, in your own words.

For example: personal experience, supporting a loved one, or professional work.

Themes, experiences, or topics you're open to sharing.

Recording preference

Optional — only if you'd like to share.

Optional — availability, boundaries, or context you'd like to add.

Applications are private. You'll only see a confirmation once your application has actually been saved.
