Get a Grip Podcast

In this raw and unfiltered interview, Bianca opens up to Louis and Aaron about a life shaped by chaos, survival, and resilience. She begins with the shocking revelation that her father once stole an ATM machine and the moment she discovered he was a crack dealer, a discovery that set the tone for the instability she grew up in. Her own struggles started early—popping bottles of Seroquel, being introduced to crystal meth at just seventeen, and then finding out she was pregnant with twins while still using. The turbulence only intensified when she learned she was pregnant again just two months after giving birth. She shares the heartbreaking reality of her daughter being born addicted, followed by her son’s withdrawal from Subutex, and how losing her father triggered a devastating relapse. After being hospitalized from a bad dose, she spiraled deeper, eventually becoming homeless and meeting Matt, who later vanished after she became pregnant—leaving her to also discover she had contracted STDs. Her story hits a gripping peak as she describes living in a trap house and suddenly going into labor there. Bianca goes on to recount Matt’s wild stories about her and Kendra, the mysterious “purple rocks,” and how she met Josh, eventually giving birth to her daughter amid the chaos. From getting raided to sleeping in a Red Ryder wagon inside a storage unit, her survival became a day-to-day battle. She describes blowing her stimulus check during a hotel bathroom party, drinking heavily and injecting between her toes and fingers, and explains how acquiring needles—sometimes by putting on scrubs to look legitimate—became an addiction of its own. Her story is a spiraling, brutal, and gripping journey through addiction, trauma, and the darkest corners of survival.🔥 Expect emotion. Expect truth.

Louis and Aaron sit across from Joe Haag in a quiet studio, microphones on, the soft hum of the equipment blending into the background as Joe prepares to share the kind of story most people spend their lives trying to hide. But Joe isn’t hiding anymore. For him, honesty has become a lifeline.Joe grew up in a neighborhood where survival came before childhood. The streets were loud, unpredictable, and soaked in the kind of chaos that becomes normal only when you’re too young to know any different. In Joe’s family, alcohol wasn’t just present—it was inherited. Addiction ran through generations like an unbroken thread, and Joe learned early on that everyone coped with pain in their own ways. Unfortunately, the examples he saw were almost all destructive.By the time he reached his teens, drugs and alcohol were part of his daily reality. Not because he wanted to rebel, but because using felt like the only way to quiet the noise inside his head. The fear, the anger, the sadness—substances made all of it disappear, at least for a moment.But fast moments turn into lost years. And for Joe, the spiral was quick.What makes Joe’s story remarkable isn’t the fall—it’s the rise. Somewhere in the chaos, he found the strength to walk into a recovery room and ask for help. That choice changed his entire life. What followed were 13 years of sobriety. Thirteen years of rebuilding trust, repairing relationships, and learning how to live without the crutch he’d relied on for so long. Joe became the kind of person others in recovery looked up to: steady, strong, and proof that long-term sobriety was possible.But addiction is patient. It waits.Joe admits the signs that led up to his relapse were there long before he picked up again. The meetings he stopped going to. The emotions he started stuffing down. The quiet belief that after 13 years, maybe—just maybe—he was “cured.” He wasn’t. No one is. And one moment of vulnerability was all it took for him to slide back into a darkness he thought he’d outgrown.Relapse is heartbreaking, especially after more than a decade of sobriety. But Joe refuses to let shame write the ending to his story. Today, sitting with Louis and Aaron, he has three months clean. Three months of early mornings, honest conversations, hard truths, and painful growth. Three months of fighting—sometimes minute by minute—against a disease that never really goes away.What makes Joe’s story powerful isn’t that it’s perfect. It’s that it’s real. He’s proof that addiction doesn’t discriminate, that recovery isn’t linear, and that no matter how far someone falls, they can get back up.Joe is back on the path, one day at a time—sometimes one breath at a time—doing whatever it takes to reclaim the life he fought so hard to build. And as Louis and Aaron listen, it’s impossible not to feel the strength behind his words. Joe isn’t just surviving anymore.He’s learning to hope again.🔥 Expect emotion. Expect truth.

In this powerful episode of Get A Grip Podcast, Louis Essig sits down with Jake Knappy to unpack a raw and unfiltered story of addiction, chaos, and ultimately redemption.Jake takes us all the way back to his childhood before diving into the moment everything began to spiral—using meth for three straight weeks in high school and quickly falling into a pattern of reckless behavior. What follows is a shocking progression through multiple DUIs, fueled by a dangerous mix of Xanax, cocaine, alcohol, and eventually fentanyl.From going to school blacked out on Xanax, to experimenting with tranquilizers, Jake opens up about how his addiction escalated beyond control.

In a moment that can only be described as divine intervention, a retired police officer saves his life after he overdoses while driving.Jake also sheds light on a growing and often overlooked issue—his deep addiction to kratom and 7-OH, substances many believe to be “safe” or “legal.” What started as a substitute spiraled into a $700-a-week habit, $30,000 in debt, and brutal withdrawals that led him right back to drinking and more DUIs.He shares the harsh reality of using even while in jail, the endless cycle of relapse, and how four years of dependency on 7-OH nearly destroyed everything in his life.But this story doesn’t end in tragedy.Jake talks about hitting rock bottom, finding faith, and beginning his recovery journey through Suboxone. In a full-circle moment, he even shares how discovering Get A Grip Podcast played a role in helping him get sober.This episode is a brutally honest look at the reality of addiction in America today—touching on kratom, fentanyl, alcohol, and the illusion of “safe highs.” More importantly, it’s a story of survival, hope, and the possibility of change.If you or someone you know is struggling, this conversation could be the wake-up call that saves a life.🔥 Expect emotion.

In this intense and unfiltered episode of the Get A Grip Podcast, Louis Essig and Aaron Garnes sit down with Matt Wiseman to unpack a life story that is as shocking as it is deeply human.Matt’s journey begins in a chaotic childhood where innocence was stripped away early. He shares what it was like taking his first drink at just 6 years old—forced to grow up fast in an environment filled with trauma, violence, and confusion. As his family faced devastating accusations against his father, Matt recalls the moment law enforcement came to take him away—and how, as a child, he reacted in a way no kid ever should have to.From there, his life spiraled into a cycle that would define his adolescence: addiction, crime, and incarceration. By the age of 12, Matt already believed he was a full-blown addict, and from that point forward, freedom became rare. In and out of juvenile detention and prison, he opens up about spending the majority of his formative years behind bars—detailing charges ranging from robbery and kidnapping to grand theft auto, arson, and more.This episode dives deep into the mindset of someone institutionalized at a young age—what it’s like getting caught stealing a semi truck by multiple departments, surviving prison riots, and even breaking into a volunteer fire department in search of needles. Matt also shares stories from working on oil rigs, the violence he encountered both inside and outside prison walls, and the moments that continued pulling him back into the system.Perhaps the most raw moments come from his time serving a 16-year sentence, including his transfer to Lebanon Correctional Institution, where the first six months tested him mentally and physically. He speaks openly about making moonshine behind bars, and what it really looks like to join the Aryan Brotherhood—including the brutal initiation process.But through all the chaos, there’s a question that lingers—what’s different this time?Now, after spending the majority of his life locked up and only a few years of true freedom since childhood, Matt reflects on the patterns, the pain, and the possibility of change.This is not just a story about crime and addiction—it’s about trauma, survival, identity, and whether someone can truly break free from a life that seemed destined from the start.⚠️ Viewer discretion is advised: This episode contains graphic discussions of violence, addiction, and prison life.If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, this conversation is a powerful reminder that no matter how far gone things may seem, change is still possible.🔥 Expect emotion.

With nine people packed into one house and violence never far away, he looked up to his older brother while navigating a world that hardened him early. One night, that reality came crashing in when three trucks pulled up to attack their home—setting the tone for the life he would soon be pulled into.By his teenage years, Vinny was already deep in the streets—getting paid to drive cars loaded with drugs and quickly learning the game. What started small escalated fast. In what feels almost unreal, he went from a high school student to a full-blown heroin dealer overnight—breaking down rocks in science class and moving serious weight before most kids graduate. At one point, he was selling quarter bricks and even found himself entangled in situations involving stolen evidence tied to a murder.But the fast money came with devastating consequences.Vinny opens up about losing his daughter, his addiction spiraling out of control, and the dangerous lifestyle that followed—getting raided, crashing into a guardrail while fleeing police, and using increasingly deadly heroin like “cop killer.” He shares the moment he first injected heroin and how his life became consumed, with rigs everywhere and no escape in sight.Eventually, it all caught up to him. After getting high and arrested, Vinny confessed to everything—leading to prison time filled with violence, fights, and hard lessons. But even after release, the cycle continued. Relationships, addiction, and loss collided again, including a haunting moment where his child’s mother overdosed and was brought back to life.At his lowest point, Vinny overdosed four times in a single day.But this isn’t just a story about addiction—it’s about survival and transformation.Vinny shares how finding faith and rebuilding his life gave him a way out. Today, he reflects on meeting his wife, blending their families into a household of six kids, and what it truly means to come back from the edge.This episode is intense, unfiltered, and unforgettable—a firsthand account of what it looks like to fall into the depths of heroin addiction and somehow find a way back.🔥 Expect emotion.

Louis takes the conversation beyond the studio and into the streets, sitting down face-to-face with people experiencing homelessness to hear the stories most of us never get to hear. In this raw and unfiltered episode, he speaks with men who are living day-to-day survival, many of them battling serious addiction while navigating life without stability, safety, or support.What quickly becomes clear is that homelessness is far more complex than most people assume. Behind every person is a story—of trauma, loss, mental health struggles, and, for many, substance use that started as a way to cope and slowly took control. These conversations shed light on the harsh reality that a large percentage of those living on the streets are caught in cycles of addiction, often with little access to the help they need.Through honest dialogue, Louis breaks down the stereotypes and humanizes a population that is often overlooked or misunderstood. These aren’t just “homeless people”—they are individuals with families, histories, regrets, and hopes. Many express a deep desire for connection, for someone to listen without judgment, and for a way out that feels possible.This episode is eye-opening, emotional, and, at times, difficult to watch—but it’s also a powerful reminder that empathy and understanding are essential. Real change doesn’t start with assumptions; it starts with conversations like these.🔥 Expect emotion. Expect truth.

What started with crack and cocaine escalated as Marrissa tried to cope with overwhelming grief and trauma—including the loss of a baby and a deeply traumatic incident at a friend’s house. Even as she attempted to regain control—becoming pregnant again and trying to get clean—life continued to hit hard. She shares the pain of experiencing physical abuse, finding the strength to leave, and facing one of the most difficult moments a parent can endure: her son being diagnosed with congenital heart disease.As her son underwent multiple surgeries, Marrissa found herself slipping deeper into addiction, eventually turning to heroin while trying to survive emotionally and physically. A Xanax blackout became a turning point, leading to an intervention from her mother and her first attempt at detox. But even then, addiction held tight—smuggling drugs into treatment and getting caught, followed by a year-long fentanyl relapse that cost her custody of her children and forced her into survival mode.This is where the story shifts.Today, Marrissa is living proof that even after the darkest chapters, change is possible.

In this powerful episode, Louis Essig sits down with Jason Christopher for a raw, unfiltered conversation about music, addiction, fame, relapse, and redemption.Jason’s story begins with a childhood shaped by chaos and curiosity. By 12–13 years old, he was experimenting with LSD, and after a food fight spiraled into a psych ward stay, the trajectory of his life was already shifting. But at 14, he picked up a guitar for the first time and taught himself how to play — igniting a passion that would define his future. Music became both his salvation and his gateway into darker territory.As he joined bigger bands and tasted early success, alcoholism took hold. What started with drinking soon escalated into heroin, cocaine, and eventually speedballs. Jason takes us deep into the 80s drug scene — real cocaine, discovering tar heroin in LA, and the first terrifying experience of shooting dope while trying to “figure it out” on his own. He shares what it was like traveling west with a heroin habit, kicking dope on a Greyhound bus, robbing his own town for petty cash, and getting caught.From detoxing in a pregnancy ward to landing in a special jail program, Jason found sobriety — and stayed clean for three years. But when he returned to LA and the music scene, sobriety didn’t last. Weed turned into pills, and before long he was back to shooting heroin and cocaine together.Jason opens up about partying with celebrities — including the Jackass crew — turning down opportunities with legends like Sebastian Bach, making $2,000 a week as a doorman while spending $1,000 a day on drugs, and even attempting to shoot up on a plane back to New York after 9/11. He shares what was left of his life at the height of his addiction.Yet through it all, Jason built a legitimate music career, toured the world, played in major bands, and became a father — all while battling relapse, ego, and eventually humility. From world-famous stages to working in a supermarket, he reflects on the reality of sobriety, sex addiction, dealing weed, and what recovery actually looks like beyond the clichés.This is a brutally honest conversation about the illusion of rockstar glamour, the cost of addiction, and the hard-earned truth that there aren’t shortcuts in recovery. Jason speaks candidly about humility, fatherhood, and how many “steps” it really takes to stay sober.If you’ve ever struggled, relapsed, chased fame, or tried to outrun yourself — this episode is one you won’t forget.🔥 Expect emotion.
