Jamie Lee Curtis: Hollywood, Healing, and the Power of Perspective | Real Ones with Jon Bernthal

[@joshuajohnson6319]

I am absolutely astonished of how dignifiedly profound this podcast is. Jon Bernthal is such a great listener.

10 minutes in and I'm already crying! Jamie Lee is SO amazing not just as an actress but as a human being! I think hands down this is the BEST episode of REAL ONES, period!

[@Paris_Sent]

I think Jamie just found the name of her new podcast 'Come talk to me' ... about living and surviving addiction!! I'd watch it!!! Powerful!

[@BeautyXXBrittany]

YES AND coming from an recovering addict that podcast would be WELL NEEDED ESP NOW!!!!!!!!!

[@blackwolf_majik]

I got to meet Jamie Lee Curtis on the set of "True Lies" in 1994. I remember how kind she was and patient with us kids despite the fact she was in the middle of filming. I gave her a small leather and porcelain beaded bracelet I had made. She said her daughter would be jealous and probably try to steal it, :D She's truly an amazing person, and I feel honored to have met her and I'm very glad that she has gotten even stronger.

[@sarawang1257]

Wow, thanks for sharing the story. I believe she is a warm-hearted person.

[@oneall23]

He let her talk and she had so much to say. What an amazing interview

[@Longden1983]

i really dont understand how this podcast hasnt got millions of subscribers

[@WafflePrince]

I wish this was the number 1 podcast instead of like Joe Rogan

[@daniellecooper6453]

I can't say anything other than this is the best podcast I've ever seen in the whole entire life and I didn't realise how Jamie Lee Curtis is the best person on the planet

[@holdthelight11]

replace "can't" with "unwilling" and "have to" with "get to." damn. those words will resonate with me for all time. thank you both (Jamie and Jon). from a woman struggling with alcoholism, but working towards sobriety.

[@drillerdev4624]

Just keep working There's a saying about training that goes: "If you aren't motivated to train on a particular day, train without motivation" Easier said than done, but in the end it comes to that

[@angelagreen1266]

I stopped and wrote each of those down on post-its and stuck them next to my bedside table. As a former addict struggling in and out of recovery, this podcast was everything to me.

[@laurapowell7384]

Clean 25 years, this spoke to me. Beautiful, funny, irreverent, insightful, inspirational. Jon is hands down my favorite podcaster. He listens, really listens. God I'm weeping

[@habeytiaLink]

The transparency she displays, without shame, is amazing to watch. We all are addicts to something, but whether we acknowledge it or not, is up to us. Podcasts like this make us ask that question to ourselves of 'are you ready to do something about it?'. Thank you for conversations like this and the many you have done before that pose this reflection.

[@ferdinandbethea3777]

We learn this type of transparency in 12 step recovery!!!

[@radosawtomaszsum8182]

I could listen to Jamie Lee Curtis instead of all the news and whatever there is (excluding music) and learn how to live my life and get better as a human being. If we all did, we would live in a better place. I love you and I thank you Jamie Lee Curtis (though I'm aware you will not see my comment, but I'm sending you my positive energy anyway) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@cryptonictv8108]

I'm watching this while under the influence of Weed and wine. I'm a big pot-head/wineo When Jamie started talking about recovery at the beginning. I realized I spent these last 5 years since high school ended. Just messing around and having fun. When the LaBeouf episode dropped I had just lost my grandmother. Was going through an ounce of weed every 2 weeks, for about 6 months. I've slowed down a bit on my drinking / smoking Been wanting to quit, and go to post-secondary schooling. I know the brain fog is going to be a Bit*h. Thanks for uploading this episode and also the LaBeouf episode. It means a lot, that the kid from Transformers, and Lori from Halloween. Have struggles just like me.

[@loganit0]

You watch interviews with actors so im guessing you like movies. There's a thing about addiction and movie characters. Every hero has a sad story that could justify his villian arc. But he chose to be a hero despite that.

[@ChaosInFlux]

It is good now and then to slow down/go on hiatus. I have been partaking of edibles since 2018 since I lost a family member. I have two gummies left myself and after those are gone, I am going on an indefinite hiatus. The brain fog will not be that bad, and will clear very quickly, 24-48 hours. Been on a 9 month hiatus before and you will be better off for it. You will be good.... 💯

My son and I love Jamie Lee sooo much. And I never knew she struggled with addiction. Before and a little after my kid was born, I was also addicted to Vicodin and Hydrocodone. I've lost many friends since then that I used to get high with. All this to say absolutely YES these topics and talks that you all have is definitely finding someone that needs to hear it. Thank you for this podcast, Jon and Jamie

[@orant]

OMG I cried so many times while listening to this podcast! What a great and meaningful conversation!

[@Devildog1979]

I will never agree with drug addiction being a disease because as a former opioid addict, it’s a choice and u have to take responsibility for your own choices whether good or bad!!! This is the best most honest podcast out there, Jon is an awesome guy, God bless guys!!!

Great conversation. I got to wake up this am and did not have to use my cane for the 1st time all week. I’m about to get to make chili for dinner w/ groceries my son was willing to get me from the grocery on his lunch break and I get to go to bed alone tonight in my 1 bedroom apt. that my family helps me afford. My first inclination is to ‘use the negative’ when recounting my day because I’m depressed & I hurt, physically & mentally, but the truth of the matter is, if I just look past my first feeling, I am blessed beyond measure. Praise God!🤲🏼

18:30 this hits heard. My brother died from a heroine overdose in 2009. At the time, we didn’t allow anyone but close family to come to the funeral. I ran into a few of his “friends” at a dunkin in town, they were obviously strung out, and they kept telling me how wonderful my brother was and how much they’re gonna miss him and how sorry they were and I couldn’t help but sit there and feel like… they were complicit. They enabled him. His blood is on their hands.

[@RachelD9502]

My best friend passed 4 years ago via oxy OD just after celebrating 6 months sober. The outpour from her drug-affiliated friends made me feel how you felt.

[@angelagreen1266]

I understand you and i understood it coming from Jamie. Just another perspective… they are all sick people. Blood on each other’s hands yes, but also both sick. Both are true.

[@lisarodriguez6966]

I agree. The loss is terrible, but to take away the brothers autonomy and decisions all together and put them on other sick and addicted people is an over correction. But pain and loss can work that way when angry. ​@@angelagreen1266

Oh Jamie! I have loved you since being terrified in a movie theater at twelve. Yelling at you to not drop the knife because Michael does not die. Love hearing your truth . Am a four year sober ! Level 1 trauma nurse . Gonna be 60 in a couple weeks. After falling down drunk a couple times and seeing some pretty traumatic injuries to intoxicated women my age. I have no desire to go out that way. Every time I see you in a movie or interview I feel your energy . You always give me a charge. Jon you could not have been more gracious. Thank you for having her on your show. Now fully charged. God Bless Mary

[@USCSherri]

Jamie is a gifted storyteller and Jon is a gifted interviewer. This was a fascinating episode!

[@EDSC_CANADA]

4 years ago I decided to stop drinking alcohol all together. It’s so much easier not worrying about how much I’m drinking, should I drive or get a ride, did I say something stupid…… I wish I had stopped years ago. The truth is, not drinking at all is so much easier than trying to mitigate drinking. I don’t even think about it anymore 😊

[@jarodchapman8981]

Thank you - JL is an outstanding woman - fantastic interview ⭐️🙏🏻

The pain of being erased because of age breaks my heart. Acting has been the most consistiant love in my life. I gave up so much for it. And with that said, I am the best I have ever been. I can only be where my feet are. 34 years in the program, thank god. Thank you for making me feel less alone.

I just lost my brother to addiction. These messages are so strong! THANK YOU Jon! And JLC!

[@love42bubble]

Re: therapy being too expensive: I just finished an 8 week online video therapy program through Kaiser via Covered California (Obama-care) that was FREE because it was all done online. So there are totally affordable therapy options out there if you're willing to do the work. The main issue is that most people, in recovery or not, don't realize that their mental health is mostly determined by the work they're personally able to do outside of meetings and therapy sessions. Blessings to all.

But had this dark secret i was always harboring in the dark. And it wasnt to get "high" it was to maintain myself and emotions. Its dangerous nowadays with the fentanyl.

I've always loved her. In the 80's she gave an interview right before she started a family declaring she was giving up swearing. It was the honest, real way she said it, resonated with me.

Bro chill they are actors lol they're not the only people in existence to have had substance abuse issues if anything they're better off because they have a crap ton of money from playing make pretend to help with their substance abuses 😂 keep in mind any of these people's stories from their good old days before acting was like 0.5% of their life up to that point, Jamie has been in Hollywood most of her life just like her mother and John started pretty early too hearing these people's backstories is like listening to the vp Harris say she used to work at McDonald's for like 5 seconds of her life LOL these people have lived very wealthy and luxurious lifestyles so they're poor me stories are a waste of breath as far as I'm concerned😂
