Absolutely excellent interview 👏 I remember reading this mans book, ironically enough, over a pint in the Brog in Cork about 10 or 11 years ago 😀 Very resonating story

Fair play lads for being so honest..pity we can't put old heads on young shoulders . I'm weak over the back door comment 😂😂

AA and such groups are great but the anonymous side is rooted in shame based behaviour, maybe not intentionally, shame makes you hide and isolate which keeps the cycle of addiction alive.

[@TheSakuraHouse24]

Love your podcast guys ❤️🙏🤗

[@romaineszabo7362]

Yet another absolutely superb podcast lads - keep them coming. Just felt really odd hearing Timmy's voice and not seeing his face for a short while, in the beginning. Assume it must have been a technical error.

[@thetwonorriespodcast]

It was. We've bought a new camera since. Thanks Romaine

[@romaineszabo7362]

@@thetwonorriespodcast absolutely delighted to see the two norries, the lads and podcast, go from strength to strength.

[@Onlinesully]

also in my opinion, ye got that very right, that one can’t be constantly talking about their story. there’s a big risk with doing that.

[@SCzxjk]

There is alot of ignorance about alcoholism here
