"I used to stick stuff up my butt because I was addicted to drugs. Now I stick stuff up my butt because I'm addicted to attention."
What makes a recovery story truly inspiring? Meet Skinny Vinny, a comedian, content creator, and podcaster who went from living in a porta-potty to co-hosting a podcast with Steve-O from Jackass. This episode of Chasing Heroine brings you a rollercoaster tale of addiction, resilience, and the power of dreams. Vinny's journey is anything but ordinary, starting from his childhood dreams of joining the Jackass crew to his eventual spiral into heroin addiction.
He shares his experiences of homelessness, including living in a porta-potty for three years, and the moments that pushed him towards sobriety. Listeners will find Vinny's transformation remarkable as he recounts how his childhood dreams came full circle after getting sober. His story is filled with bizarre anecdotes, like training himself to transport drugs internally, and the lengths he went to maintain his addiction.
But it's not all grim; Vinny's candid humour and honesty offer a refreshing perspective on the struggles and triumphs of recovery. Co-host Jeannine Coulter Lindgren and Narcan Nate provide a supportive platform for Vinny's tale, making this episode both engaging and informative. With a mix of humour and raw honesty, you'll hear how Vinny found his way back to his childhood dreams and the surprising role his past played in his current success.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or simply fascinated by stories of human resilience, Vinny's story is sure to captivate you. Could it be time to chase your own dreams, no matter how far-fetched they seem?
