Mary Cosby and Robert Jr. Save Lives by Addressing Addiction (Part 2 of 2) (RHOSLC Full Recap)

[@megshep]

Listening to Shooter get choked up talking about watching people go through addiction was...god it just shows how much he's gone through with Steel. Those were the tears of a guy who has almost lost a friend to addiction. Shooter and Steel are a lovely example of friendship.

[@theedspage]

Brothers forever.

[@sabinacraig8124]

Thank you Steele for your honesty and showing your vulnerability. Incredibly powerful. I cried watching you. Well done to you for getting sober ❤

[@KvDRo123]

Steel! I love how raw you always are on here. I appreciate you sharing your journey with us time and time again. Addiction is a big public health issue and the more people learn about it, the more awareness there will be. The episode with Mary and her son was amazing. I’ve never seen Mary be like that and it really changed my mind about her. She’s a great mother.

[@mykidsmomogx5]

That was so real. My husband and I just had this real experience with our youngest son. He is sober now (465 days!) but it's so raw, real, and not a "Brady Bunch" gee golly shucks moment. Someday I can watch without tears😢 but for now ......

[@kenja6569]

Stay close so you can be there for him to avoid relapsing. It’s very much a part of most people’s journey, depending on the drug I guess. Been in your shoes with my younger brother. It’s heartbreaking, but so rewarding when they come back to you. ❤❤❤

[@ansonwinsor3325]

You both did a great job with your last segment. Congrats on your sobriety because everyday of sobriety is a day for celebration.

[@carlosharris1349]

Mary and Robert Jr’s scene was the realist thing I have witnessed on tv in my 40yrs of living.

[@leenikgl]

That says alot! I really hope Mary and RHOSLC are here to stay... Forever. 🤞

[@tasha6631]

I love you both for showing your emotions and sharing your story 🙏🏾

[@CharlotteKay-qq2nh]

I have watched a few different podcast recaps on this Salt Lake episode. You guys explained in the most eloquent way. Ty for honouring Robert Jr journey and I hope Mary's openess and support helps others. Ty Steel for being open and being a guide to many. ❤

[@bbygorla6713]

Steel thank you for always being so vulnerable about your journey with addiction and recovery and standing up for those who are going through the same thing ❤️❤️❤️ sending lots of love!

[@marisaemilie999]

Thank you Steel and Shooter for expressing your feelings and your struggles, it’s not easy being so raw to the world. You will always have the support of all of us. I’m also so appreciative of Mary and Robert Jr for being so open about something so personal. It was the most honest thing I’ve ever seen on television.

[@kenja6569]

Mary was awesome with Robert. She didn’t over react or judge him. She just listened and explained he’s the one who needs to want to change. Hearing him say he didn’t take his life because he couldn’t hurt her. Their love for each other is very deep and real. Heart wrenching. I bawled my eyes out ETA Thanks for opening up Steel. You are helping people too ❤❤❤

[@rebeccashook7555]

Well now I'm crying again. I think it was very brave of Mary and her son to talk so freely about it. Shows what a great relationship they have for him to tell her the truth. I watched my sister go through addiction and now i have seen her sober for last 26 years and she is doing amazing. Your all passion in this episode was amazing.

[@nemo22without50]

Steel…..Your vulnerability is your biggest strength…..that’s what gave you the courage and strength to battle your own demons. Thank you for commenting on this and being so honest. That scene easily was the most gutting scene I’ve seen on any housewives show.

[@cvp2000]

Mary and her son are the Real Heroes of SLC❤

[@erineileenj608]

I also sobbed during Mary and RJ convo. Seeing this conversation was so powerful. As a mom, I see it on Mary's pov. As a recovering addict from opiates, clean since 2010, I see RJ's pov. Sending so much love and good energy to them.

[@Prentiss1980]

Steel, don’t ever feel bad about expressing your struggles. It is refreshing to see someone who is real. Life is not easy. Congrats to you to be able to be vulnerable about the struggles in your life. We are here for you. 😀 you rock!

[@iyeshaglasco-parris7023]

You guys have so much compassion and empathy for others and see different perspectives. I really love it. You both have beautiful souls, I can tell. ❤

[@estheradegoke9060]

Originally I had mixed feelings about the Mary and Robert scene because although it was powerful and moving I wasn’t sure if Robert was in a position to give informed consent to film such a vulnerable moment. I was worried it could be exploitative. However hearing Steel’s perspective has made me believe the scene needed to be aired and I hope it helps a lot of people, Mary and Robert were incredibly brave for sharing this on camera Also I like Bronwyn but her thrist to be heathers friend is cringe especially when she punishes Brittani for much less. It’s definitely because heather is an OG

[@theedspage]

❤❤❤❤ Thank you Steel and Shooter. I agree, Mary and Robert Jr. did save lives, including their own. One day at a time.

[@ryannapravnik3560]

I think Todd told Bronwyn “don’t say that” because she said the c-word at the dinner table. I think it’s more about him not wanting her to come off in a way that seems disrespectful and they’re guests in someone else’s home. Also you know Bronwyn said something about Heather talking about them not having a prenup and he tossed the NSA background check on Bronwyn to maybe let Heather know that has not as stupid as she thinks. The scene with Mary and Robert Jr was a scene that was powerful and I think could help people talk to their loved ones about addiction without judgement. Thank you to both of them sharing something that is private so open because can only help others

[@sleekspeech]

JB Husband-Boss was in the foster care system - in an earlier season they did a fundraiser for foster care. Remember the former church member of Mary's was a board member?

[@irishmomma299]

Thank you so much. I lost my husband from an overdose. I constantly look back and ignored so obvious signs. I feel guilty I didn't help sooner. I believed him that he was ok. I really appreciate you talking about your experience. It heals me very much. Thank you.

[@krystashafer3506]

Thank you for taking the time to share your personal experience with everyone.

[@Balraj_loves_BRAVO]

Steel thank you so much for sharing this my grandfather went to rehab and as a child I was not aware what was happening when my dad and mum took us to see him at the centre.

[@badassbombshell5894]

I was sobbing through it and for a bit after. So much love and support for Rjr's health & recovery and for Mary 🙏❤️‍🩹 and now crying through the breakdown. Thank you to all 4 of you 💛💛💛💛

[@sunnyboknow]

I could not stop the tears from rolling down my face because, I lost my brother to alcoholism . It’s devastating to watch someone slowly go in real time. He was so handsome and funny, he was my best friend. I miss him dearly 😢

[@Balraj_loves_BRAVO]

You both are amazing thank you so much 🙏

[@Badalien13]

It was so beautiful the talk Robert and Mary had i cried and cried. You're so right dude when I was at my worst drinking the most I thought i was worthless I thought i didn't deserve to get better because I was already such a disappointment i hated myself and didn't think I was worth anything but I'm glad we've both come through it ❤❤we are worth it we do deserve to be here

[@maletsatsimokhosi1711]

Side note. Tripe isn't salty. It'll only be salty if it's overly seasoned with salt by whoever that made it.

[@ElizabethCostanzo-o9x]

I cried when I saw Mary and Robert Jr. It was so heartbreaking. I was crying with this recap. Thank you for being so open with us. Sending love your way.

[@nd4610]

Honestly, these days I think it's smart to run a background check. You need to protect yourself and there are so many manipulators out there. If you have nothing to hide, you should'nt be worried. People have to realize marriage is a business deal as much as it is union between people who love eachother.

[@blaketheawesome830]

Soaking is LIKE a hot dog sitting in a bun. Thats what Heather was saying. Its just laying there not moving. Its not a separate thing.

[@Aekbonita1986]

I’m still tearing up listening to the recap 😢

[@SpecificallyAngelina]

Same. Brought me right back. I wailed during that scene. Totally caught me off guard didn't think I would react that way. Days later I was still thinking about it. Whew

[@katemanock1177]

I’m right there with you Steele I was sobbing . My whole face was wet even my forehead. I was so impressed with their honesty and felt awful for the pain they were experiencing. Robert is extremely smart and eloquent and this world needs people like him. I hope they come out the other side and find joy.

[@laurenwilkinson1212]

Steel... THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT THIS AND SHARING YOUR JOURNEY 🙏 I'm on my own and like you I knew EXACTLY what was going on with Robert Jr 🙏 I hope he gets help and commend him for putting this on National television 🙏

[@Starr_Gazerr]

We appreciate you both so much. Great video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and wishing you both continued success. 🤗

[@AIMom2014]

Thank you for sharing your story and highlighting how that scene effects everyone. This is an be of the best reviews I seen thus far handle and explain Mary and Robert jnr scene

[@KiaShakur]

It makes you think of Lauri from real housewives of OC Son. Joshua really struggled and I wish he got to have this moment

[@mona891]

❤ I loved how you both spoke about addiction and how it impacts everyone involved. It made me think of the people in my family that have issues with addiction. If you weren’t crying watching that moment or your commentary on it idk what is wrong with you lol.

[@mckennacreasey967]

I love you guys so so so much!!! thank you for being real. Thank you for providing a real perspective on this situation. I have watched every other big podcast cover this and every one missed the mark. This was it. Thanks bros!!!!

[@malachais]

Thank you for sharing your story. ❤

[@wiggytv_]

Ok now I’m crying all over again

[@marycadigan7118]

I'll meet you, Steele since I live outside Charleston & am originally from NJ!!

[@annagresta3840]

What do you guys think about Jill Zarin’s daughter, Ally Shapiro, slamming ‘RHOSLC’ for using Mary Cosby’s son’s addiction issues as a ‘storyline’: She said it was not ok. I completely disagree. I agree with you 2, it was so powerful and it may help many other people.

[@SaraBettencourt-ie3xu]

Pooper is wrong. Like was said Mer was always on Mary's side. So Mary was looking at Mer at the time maybe because that was Mary thought 🤔 was a safe place to look. But yes both lady's got told if you can't stop 🛑 leave. You guy's are doing a great job.

[@xtina__32]

Love you Steele 26:32 ❤❤❤

[@OrielThomson]

I think there is some underlying abuse, neglect or trauma in Mary's family unit and her son's addiction is a reflection of what's sick in their family unit. Abuse does not negate the fact Robert Junior needs to fight and get help for himself but we need to keep space for what we don't know about what happened in Mary's house (married to her Grand Father or whatever) I speak from experience. PS: we love you Steel.

[@brandim5215]

I love this podcast, I swear you guys be crackin me up! But, I just wanted to specify, Xanax is a benzodiazepine which is the class of drugs that includes Valium, Klonipin, and Ativa, for example. They're commonly used to treat anxiety, panic disorders, and seizures, among other things. I think people often combine benzos with opioids and it can definitely be a deadly combination. Matter of fact, Robert Jr mentioned taking the Xanax with 10 oxys. That is soooooo scary. The first time I watched it, I thought I was being strong, but I literally BURST into tears by the end of it. It was so powerful.

[@bravbrospodcast]

I know it’s a benzo I was saying the common one we hear is opiate abuse due to injury. But I appreciate sharing your knowledge on it as well so more people can learn
