He Said He'd Quit at 30. Then 35. Then...
Jason Biggs has a sobriety story that isn’t neat, pretty, or tied up with a bow. It’s full of broken promises to himself, humiliating moments, and the strange distortions of living in the spotlight.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
✔️ The many “I’ll stop when…” deadlines Jason set—30th birthday, marriage, kids—that came and went
✔️ The dark, isolated year in California where denial started to collapse in on itself
✔️ Why testing himself with “sober weekends” only proved how deep the problem already ran
✔️ The painfully awkward run-in with a bitter actor mid-rant about “successful people in the hills”… right before he recognized Jason
✔️ The hidden cost of fame: years without anyone daring to tell him “No”
✔️ How shame spirals became his baseline, even when everything looked fine from the outside
This isn’t a glossy redemption arc. It’s Jason at his most honest—owning the bargaining, the denial, and the slow realization that sobriety isn’t about one big moment. It’s about facing all the moments you’ve already missed.
