Matt King Carty: Sobriety, Society, and Unconventional Wisdom
“It's a shame because I have come to realize that all human beings, we all have a hard code and our hard code is that we want to live in it, to be happy, to feel fully satisfied.”
Ever wondered what happens when old friends reunite and reflect on their wild pasts? In this episode of 'This Week in Sparkling Water', Joakim Eriksson catches up with Matt King Carty in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. They take a nostalgic trip back to their younger days in Shanghai, reminiscing about the strange privileges they once enjoyed and perhaps took for granted.
But it’s not all about the past; their conversation dives into the present, covering everything from Chinese and American societies to hot-button issues like vaccines and conspiracy theories. What's refreshing is how these two manage to disagree without the heated arguments that might have erupted in their younger years. Matt’s journey through sobriety adds another layer to their chat, offering a unique perspective on life and personal growth.
And if that wasn’t enough, there’s even a cameo from Matt’s daughter, Lana, adding a touch of family warmth to the episode. Dedicated to their late friend Justin Michael Russel, this episode is a heartfelt mix of humor, reflection, and raw honesty. It’s a must-listen for anyone interested in the complexities of sobriety, society, and maintaining friendships through life’s ups and downs.
