Summary: Our guest this week will take us inside “the family business”; a business consisting largely of illegal activities and straight up criminal behavior. From a large urban family he was exposed to the criminal element from the time he could walk. Alcoholism and criminal thinking ran neck and neck for first place in his head; booze and drugs fueled the fire. Learning to work the system he avoided the worst of the legal consequences until both his alcoholism and the law caught up. Sober now for more than a dozen years he’ll recount how recovery from both things was necessary for his recovery. He'll tell you himself that it's a miracle he's alive and that for the last dozen years or so the world had been a safer place.
