High On Life... And Cocaine - Quintin "Q" Dailey - Part 2

James doesn't understand how 12-step works, and Jimmie doesn't know how to explain it. He also pulled that stat out of his ass. It's a lot closer to 50-50. And, yes, if someone chooses not to follow some sort of recovery program before they have recovery, they are choosing to relapse. Luckily, there are a helluva lot of options for recovery programs that were not previously available because 12 step sucks for atheists. It's still doable, but I wish I had had the option of harm reduction recovery when I got off dope and booze. After 6 years of meetings, I walked away from NA/AA and still have 18 years sober. When I'm desperate, I fall back on what I learned, but that rarely happens now. He's not wrong about the platitudes, tho; they are VERY oversimplified, which is why you have to understand what's behind them, which is what Jimmie can't explain. 12 step isn't for everyone, but it does work for nearly everyone who puts in the work. If it doesn't work for you, there are other options, but you won't hit bottom til you put down the shovel.

hi from wheeling illinois 😂

Attack therapy is how you get people like the Unibomber. WTF?

My town got really popular with rehab houses for a while. People were buying up houses and turning them into rehab house then charging these people an arm and leg to stay there. My job hired two guys from a house and they were telling us stories. It was like 3k a week and what their families and insurance didnt pay they had to but they were only allowed to work certain hours. They did that attack therapy like the first five minutes you were there. The guy that ran it was a meth head that relapsed at least once or twice a year and he would kick them out for the slightest infraction usually after they paid for the month and not return the money.

Fun fact Wayman Tisdale was actually very good friends with Toby Keith and the song "Cryin for Me" is about Tisdale. I am an Oklahoma Sooner so I got you on all the lore lmao. Boomer!

I went to Plattsburgh! People gave me crap bc at the time they still had a "party school" rep. Aren't all colleges "party schools"?

“Going Ape-Shit” is also an important, separate category. And my favorite.

I was laughing so hard at all of the bullshit dogshit etc 😂😂😂. Tears and I was trying to drive

Wheeling Illinois; home of the Wildcats!

As sad as Q's career was it paled in comparison to the decades long plight of the LA Clippers

There WILL be poop!!! 🤣🤣

As someone who raised hogs for 4H, washing your 🐖 and then having them get filthy immediately is VERY disheartening!! 🤣🤣🤣

Ugh. Gary Bettman

Don’t forget about a shit eating grin and good stuff being “the shit”

Reminds me of the Hannibal Burress joke “Everyone takes things one day at a time; that’s how time works.”

loved when you guys were shooting the shit. was hoping to hear the infamous “shitstorm” get mentioned in an accent 😂

So hog wash convo was hilarious… also I had to look up hog wash origin 😂 …Originally referring to swill (refuse fed to pigs) in the 1400s, it evolved to represent worthless, garbage information

My bad 2024

KC Jones and Bill Russell were teammates on USF undefeated championship teams in 1955 and 1956.

I love love love Gene Collier. I miss his humor and wit

Michael cage went to highschool with my dad lmao

Q 10

this was hilarious and damn who the hell did he think he was? it wasn't Jordans fault it was Qs

At the 20 min mark, Q literally sounds 13 years old I stg

Lol it is the same Gary Bettman in the NHL haha

Hogwash! Of course it made me wonder why it mean what it means as well, and according to Google: "Hogwash" means nonsense because it originated in the 15th century as a term for swill—the disgusting, discarded scraps and leftover liquids fed to pigs. Over time, this metaphor shifted from literal garbage to mean "worthless" or "inferior" ideas, eventually becoming a common synonym for lies, drivel, or ridiculous statements by the late 1800s.Key Stages of Evolution:1400s (Literal): Refers to refuse, slops, or liquid waste fed to hogs.1700s (Metaphorical): Described cheap, poor-quality liquor.Late 1700s-1800s (Modern Usage): Began to describe inferior, worthless writing or nonsensical talk.Essentially, calling something "hogwash" implies it is as useless, vile, or garbage-like as the slop given to pigs.

Why is bat shit the craziest shit?

Losing it during the “hogwash”/“bullshit” discussion 😂😂

Shit Talk with James and Jimmie 😆

Sledgehammer was a good show!!

You forgot chicken shit.

Okay, the whole hogwash conversation triggered the 4-H mom. Fun farm fact of the day - Pigs are much cleaner than people think. Pigs can sunburn and they don't sweat, so they roll in the mud to protect their skin from burning, and stay cool. Pigs actually avoid rolling in shit. They keep a latrine space in their pen, separate from where they eat and sleep. The more you know 🌠

The various “shit categories”’had me rolling!

The "hogwash" debate is everything I need this morning 😆😆

Im telling you now for me, 90s Knicks basketball 🏀 was the best 👌🏾 point blank period! All of 90s basketball was the best. I cant watch this outside shooting, no driving on the paint pussified basketball

The shit scale was hilarious and thought provoking. What level of shit does this situation deserve. 💩💩💩💩

The hogwash / bullshit convo reminded me of this bit (that you’ve almost certainly seen, but I like it and like to remember that it exists) https://youtu.be/igh9iO5BxBo?si=1oxCrheLQhGpuv5C

All the years and all the episodes and this is still my absolute favorite podcast long live CIS
