Studies prove that exercise is the best medicine, but we don't need studies. Personal experience is enough! Move a Muscle - Change a Thought is real. I don't care if you walk, run marathons, lift weights or do yoga, just do SOMETHING!

Dan: Make today THE day
Forever, I was going to start tomorrow, or Monday, or next week. When it came to giving up drinking, or working on that new show idea, or implementing the new workout program or eating regimen, I was always starting tomorrow. Not anymore. The power of making today THE day is undeniable.

Dan: Morning After the Super Bowl
My Super Bowl partying looks quite different than it used to, and I'm grateful for that fact. Waking up feeling fresh and ready to go, having experienced the game and surrounding events with my kids and wife, and receiving a gentle reminder that I'm still an alcoholic and being okay with it. Not to mention being humbled by my kids!

Tim Lodgen: Motivational Speaker - Mental Health and Addiction Advocate
Getting sober doesn't magically fix all of your problems, but it does make you much more capable of dealing with them. In a ten day period, Tim got the news that his daughters had been molested, his cousin had passed away, and his wife had cheated on him. The man from years past would have hopped in the truck, hit the liquor store and numbed the pain, and sadly left the problems to fester. Yet, in the face of this ugliness and adversity, Tim remained strong and sober, and dealt with this seemingly impossible flood of news and events. I was shocked when he shared this on the podcast, and even more so when he explained his incredible perspective and reaction in the face of such difficulty. I am beyond proud of my friend Tim.

Flindt Andersen: Man on a Mission
Action needs to be taken. Changes must be made. What we're doing with treatment, services, and stopping the flow of drugs into this country is NOT working, and what's happening can no longer be ignored. 190 people overdose and die EVERYDAY in America. That's equivalent to a 747 airplane. Can you imagine if a 747 crashed EVERYDAY - can you imagine what the media coverage would be? Running a treatment facility, tirelessly advocating for better treatment and services for addicts, working to install Narcan (emergency treatment for overdoses) into schools and other necessary facilities, and spreading an urgent message on fentanyl and its devastating affect on society are a few things that Flindt Andersen is focused on EVERYDAY. He and I dive in on the inconvenient truths around all of these topics.
For decades, I avoided in-depth conversations, smiled through the pain for the cameras, and drowned my demons at night. Now I'm opening up, eager to share my adventures, addiction and recovery with whoever listens. If I'm Being Honest delivers real, in-depth and sometimes ugly truths of my life, and those of my courageous guests; revealing unique paths to happiness, success, recovery and redemption. Hello, my name is Dan and I'm an alcoholic. If I'm being honest, you need to hear this...
