2026 WINTER OLYMPICS
The United States pulled off a dramatic 2-1 overtime victory over Canada in the men's ice hockey final at the Milan-Cortina 2026 Games. Matt Boldy opened the scoring early for the U.S., and although Canada answered late in the second period to tie it, standout goaltender Connor Hellebuyck kept the Americans alive with a huge performance. Just 1:41 into 3-on-3 overtime, Jack Hughes buried the game-winning goal to give Team USA its first Olympic men’s hockey gold since 1980, ending a 46-year drought and adding a historic chapter to the long-standing rivalry between the neighboring hockey powers.
MISTY D. IN THE PLACE TO BE
Tonight's show featured a special guest Misty D., who shares a raw and deeply personal account of her journey through substance use, physical abuse, emotional-relapse, loss of control, and ultimately, long-term recovery. Misty opens up about the progression of her addiction, the denial and isolation that kept her stuck, and the turning point that led her to seek help. She reflected on the challenges of early sobriety, the importance of community support through recovery programs, and the spiritual and emotional growth that reshaped her life.
EPISODE 180°
In this episode, we sat down with Richard, who shared his powerful story of getting sober at a young age and navigating the challenges of early recovery. He spoke candidly about the fears, identity shifts, and social pressures he faced while choosing sobriety, and how committing to personal growth transformed his life. The conversation highlighted that recovery isn’t just about abstaining from substances, but about learning healthier boundaries, rebuilding self-worth, and embracing ongoing emotional and behavioral growth.

5 guys burgers & fries
We welcomed special guest Donald B. in a powerful and thought-provoking conversation about “Change in Recovery” and the “Fear of Change.” Together, we explored how growth in recovery often requires stepping into the unknown and letting go of familiar but unhealthy patterns. Donald B. shared honest insights about how fear can keep people stuck, even when they genuinely want a better life. He highlighted that fear is a natural part of recovery, but it doesn’t have to control the journey.
SUPER BOWL TTXL
We suffered in silence—now we recover out loud. That’s how we roll here on Talkin’ Trash. We’re not ashamed of our afflictions; quite the opposite. We find strength in vulnerability, and staying open-minded breaks down walls we never thought possible. Tonight, we unveiled Trash 2.0—a new look, a new year, and a new cast member. We’re always adapting, always evolving, one day at a time. We handed the mic to Brad tonight, our newest team member, to get to know what makes him tick. Turns out… he’s nuts—so he fits right in with the boys. Around here, we identify, not compare. Enjoy the show, it's a long-n.
PODCASTING OLYMPICS
We welcomed our new friend Brad to the team tonight. Much like Jim, Brad's a natural and he's authentic. That transcends borders and timezones. Also like Jim, Brad is from Canada and like the rest of the staff, he donates his time, energy and emotions into spreading the message in order to keep what we get when we give it away. Resentment in recovery is like carrying a backpack full of stones—you don’t always notice the weight until it starts breaking you down. It feeds old patterns, keeps wounds open, and quietly pulls you back toward using. Letting go doesn’t mean excusing the harm; it means choosing freedom over staying tied to the past.
