If it were just Scott and the doctor having a conversation this would have been a much more valuable use of airtime for everyone.
So does that thinking apply to Isreal and Hamas?
@jackmitton2534 what???
@@dE3Lov you know? the part about leaving.

@jackmitton2534 you're going to need to leave a timestamp to the part of this 23 year old video that references wtf you're talking about.
Never seen Scott so passionate during conversation. Poor guy he was at the mercy of his addictions.
Scott and Dr Pinsky came for a serious discussion about addiction to help others find their way out. Their host and supporting cast expected a clown show. 21 years later, sorry to say, attitudes haven’t changed much about addiction. Miss you Scott.
Their host is a clown show
At the time, Dr. Drew was only known for his Loveline show talking to teens about STD's while his cohost made dumb jokes. and having a website giving advice to teenagers. He had zero public image related to addiction or helping anyone other than teens wanting to have sex.
💯
I disagree. Attitudes have changed dramatically especially in the last five years. No comparison.
I can't even finish listening to this. Miss you, Scott.
As a former long-term addict I'm enraged by the idiocy I'm hearing on this clip... rest in peace Scott Weiland
SO SMART SW!
1) most people, relative to the amount of scientific knowledge available at the time, are superbly dumb and ignorant. 2) low iq. Humor and opinions. 3) clearly most people are not intelligent enough to become an addict then bounce back and reflect on it, let alone do actual research on what was going on. Lastly, attic room may not be a “disease” but it’s absolutely something. It changes everything and hijacks your person.
@sojourner I hope you aren't referring to Scott in a negative light
I wish I could meet with every billionaire and seduce them to the point where they will let me stick a needle with cocaine or heroin in their arm just a couple times and then they could spend their life saying that addiction is a choice. Until you are dependent on something or live with someone who has it, normies won't understand.
Scott fighting THREE OBLIVIOUS IDIOTS. Drew helpful here, later Drew would exploit addiction, sadly.
Dr Drew is another villain with his record of exploitation and deaths on “Celebrity Rehab.” Just a horrible situation
God bless you, Scott. You tried.
God bless you, all. You tried.

Holy crap! He seriously- Scott was the most reasonable/smart person on the stage! Liberalism is ridiculous! I am really disappointed with the Doc- he is smarter than this! Look, I really wish Scott would have said, "hold my Grammy - the shit is deep here, I gotta whiz!" He tried to tackle a giant- the giant is rampant stupidity!
@Mike Cranston I don't understand these brainwashed bois and their need to include their political "views" on everything lol
I love how everybody feels free to interrupt the doctor's expertise with just their confidence. My god...
@@jennifermarie3158 Yup. 'Merica, where certain segments of the population regard unwavering confidence in their (often ignorant) opinion as being just as honorable and dignified as actual knowledge and education.
@@400_billion_suns sounds like my ex wife and I.
You forgot about how important brownies were
Scott and Dr Drew were superstars regarding addiction. I don’t know how Scott kept his cool with the older lady.
umm because is was a different time and people had more respect even for people they didnt like or agree with, and didnt instantly go into attack mode
I don't know how Scott kept his cool with that POS, Bill Maher.
It is cool seeing this side of Scott as he looks so full of life and is so articulate here. In many interviews he looks out of it and has a hard time speaking, due to the drugs and/or from drinking.
Scott was a very smart man. These people are closed minded
Scott Weiland has a really grounded viewpoint. Never saw this before.
Had no idea Bill Maher was so ignorant about addiction
Hes ignorant about most things, his sense of humor is creepy and profane.
@@RootzRockBand 💯
Yet he’s the biggest pothead nowadays. What a hypocrite lol
Damn Scott was on point here. Much respect! Unfortunately he was talking to a group of brick walls.
I mean the dr was agreeing with Scott most of the time
CNN etc... poisoned.
@dave hathaway WTF, does this mean? Did I miss something? By only being able to watch 5 minutes of this video?
@@patriciawright8786 ...l9
No doubt when dr. Drew Pinsky is too complicated a man for people WOW
These self righteous people are killing me. Scott you did your best.
right on!
Starlight Weaver fr lol
I don't think it's self-righteous to promote accountability, freedom, and responsibility.
@@uverpro3598it is possible to take accountability for one’s actions, and also recognize that addiction is a disease. Scott literally killed himself with drugs and alcohol to self medicate his bi polar mental health. This is not “lack of will power”. And a sane mind would not kill themselves by “choice”. Folks on the panel are sadly very ignorant around addiction yet speak so confidently about it. He took accountability, paid his penalties with the law. His disease was too much for him.
Over these past couple months I’ve been getting into STP and seeing this makes me love Scott even more.
you need grunge, more genuine people Nirvana
Scott is talking about things that they don't seem to understand yet for anyone with a deep emotional intellect can understand easily...
Mojopin-HERE IT IS! This attitude bugged me about Weiland he had it too. Give me a break W/ this "deep emotional intellect can understand easily" CRAPOLA.
yeah, scott claimed to have bipolar, sorry panel of experts but that is a medical condition that doesn't process information right from body to brain and vice versa...god bless he lived as long as did with all of the stresses of being a genius songwriter as well a singer with a voice of one of the greatest; and so be it that some people enter this world with a curse of having to struggle more than others. we all should have a Scott as a relative to see the pain they endure everyday. He wasn't be funny he was trying to tell the world how pained he is. I didn't see him giggling every second over the despair of addiction.

Bill thinks Bill is hilarious! Scott isn’t amused AT ALL!
Scott Weiland was a brilliant and talented musician however the way he carried himself and spoke when he was clean was extraordinary. He was living proof that addiction was a disease, he wholeheartedly knew and believed what would happen if he started using again but yet he did over and over he started and stopped. Unfortunately he was able to fight the demons and was taken way to early. I just pray his son stays clean now and is able to keep those demons at bay.
I worked with him. He was a selfish dumbass. Way overrated.
Mental health is so misunderstood! Scott and the doctor understand how it feels to be in the position of having an addictive personality. Scott was so talented and articulate. Miss him!
Scott is amazingly articulate and brilliant. Awesome video.
We love and miss you Scott for ever!
So now we have the guy in the middle chair telling people that the US is now a fascist dictatorship for ratings, and the really talented guy to his left that gave us so much awesome music, is dead. Proof life isn't fair.
Well there were different circumstances to it. We are not living in helll we are just living in a world where events go on and people go on with themselves
Absolutely stunning to watch the man throw down in such a coherent and respectable manner. We didn't really see this side of the figure.
Scott and the doc were the only ones making sense to me. Couldn't stand it when they didn't let Scott speak. Oi vay! Good fun. To see and hear otherwise.
Sarah Sunshine couldn’t agree more, check out my comment.
Agreed!! Scott was pissed but handled himself very well. If this alone caused him to relapse... I'm not an addict but would certainly understand.
Interesting how this is still debated today. It's really good to see Scott at his best: sober, funny, heartfelt and convincing. He gives such insight as an addict and his own journey. Thank you for posting - this is a rare gem.
themotherfrom theblacklagoon - Exactly, I never saw S,W, in an interview. I was unaware of how intelligent, insightful he was. R I P brother you are missed by myself and many many others. Hard to believe the 2 other panelist explaining to Scott and Drew about addiction. Scott lost the fight as so many countless others have, famous or not, unless you've been there, you have no clue.
:(
Totally agree
@@redwhiteblue9866 he didnt die of an overdose per se huh? He had coke , booze , and psychiatric meds in his system no heroin. Maybe he had subs too. But he had hep c due to dope years earlier and wasnt in the best health to go touring. Think he had some cardiovascular issue which he died from. But seeing people saying he died of heroin overdose is obnoxious. (Not saying you did im just stating
@@brandtsavoy6123--I get what you mean. It's wrong when people say David Bowie was a heroin Addict. David Bowie was a Cocaine addict, & coke is much easier to quit than H. The Fleetwood Mac members were on Coke, & never heroin. "Just the facts, Ma'am."
I saw STP live this year in Buffalo NY with my older brother. I was 9 and it was my first concert. It can never get better than that was. RIP Scott.
Buffalosabskis Awesome, man! My second concert was also STP in 2000. They killed it when I seen them in 2002 as well! (2008, 2011, 2013, 2014) the last two being with Chester of course. The last show I seen with Scott (2011) was weird. .he was all fat lol

@@GucciButNotGuilty Did he get to be fat? I always saw him emaciated
Dr Drew Is Thinking Like The Doctor He Is And Scott Is Thinking With His Soul Spirit And Mind 💯🎯
Woah, that's so weird that he said that. Scott said he had an eating disorder while they were talking about addiction. He never said that anywhere else that I know of. I obviously knew he got skinnier and skinner after 1997, but I thought it was because of his drug use. So it was actually both huh
I caught that too!
scott never even mentions it in his memoir! as someone familiar with disordered eating i could spot it from a mile away, but associated it to the drugs. my analysis is after the rape he experienced as a child he turned to the drugs/booze/ed as a form of escape & control
@@0livita I concluded much the same. I feel so bad for him. I really do.
Scott always wanted to BE a Rockstar like David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Jim Morrison (at his height), etc. Later on he figured that all the greats had at least one thing in common... they were skinny. Whatever it took to stay in the limelight, even if that meant starving yourself.
Of all bands, the lyrical line from a Nickelback song sums it up (I know, Nickelback lmao)
... "We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat" ...
It's painful to see Scott in this now. Hurts my head
Scott was sooooo ahead of his time. Men do get sexually harassed in the work place by men and women as well. What he said about drug addiction is true as well. There was a choice in the begining, but it becomes an actual ailment...a disease and impediment on one's life.
💯
I remember watching this. Bill Maher said,"I'm glad your still alive too, although it wouldn't have hurt my record collection" what an asshole. S.W you are certainly missed by me and a lot of fans. Thanx for the good tunes. Thanx for uploading.
Byron P Penick Bill's ratings are due for a decline.
I think web views would be a much more accurate way to get a snapshot of how relevant this white Joe Camel really is or isn't.
Nominay decline??? with the idiot we have in the oval office and all the brain dead morons he's installed in various government positions, bill's ratings will only increase.
Byron P Penick you’re
Bill Maher is a despicable POS.
Scott is so on the money here, in light of Metoo...one smart guy
Dude Scott is real sharp here, must be after he got out of jail and was clean during No. 4 tour
How relevant these topics are and how differently they are viewed just 18 years ago is mind blowing
*Relevant today*
Exactly what I was thinking. It's shocking to watch this...
first time I've ever heard him acknowledge he had an eating disorder as well. Very evident in his appearance throughout the years. The shame on this panel towards Scott is awful, a sad tactic perhaps to boost ratings? Truly hope that they don't believe what they are saying about addiction. Scott and the doctor are the most well-informed here. This period was the most coherent and beautiful that Scott ever seemed throughout his career with STP, during his two year sobriety. If only he could have maintained this, bless him x
Marlie Centawer RIP Scott W. Easy to type. Hard if you actually mean it .........
Couldn't have said it better myself. Im a recovering boozer, and he was making Soo many valid points. These mother fuckers tried to make him look like an idiot for being an addictive personality, bipolar depressed dude like myself, like alot of us are. Bill deserved to get cancelled. Moron.
@@ivanmullarkey5500 --I am sorry that you have dealt with addiction. Happy that you're recovering. Scott Weiland is one of the people on this show who annoyed me. LOVED his music, & he was a great talent. it's tragic he's gone. Something about him bugged me?!? Watch him. He never looks at the fat Black women. It's just RUDE! He was just always so affected.
@@patriciawright8786 What do you mean by affected?
Can't believe I'm saying this, but WEILAND was the only one being REAL.
I wish Scott could have stayed this way! He was so on top of things here!
Major respect to Scott Weiland. Was super open and let his experiences speak for themselves.
Scott is actually correct. I have a heroin abuse problem, bi-polar disorder and depression...the last thing he said still gives me chills ;_; Scott, you tried to banish the addiction that plagued you....at least his demons are finally gone. Rest in peace, Scott...
Shotgun Kisses please stop the heroin abuse now before it's too late!
Danielle Wolf hey how are you doing?
hey...late reply,just wanted to give you a shoutout from a fellow bottom dweller...you doin ok? hope you are..
Yeah I hear you the Dual diagnosis makes it very difficult especially the stigma attached to mental illness but about 15 yrs ago when I was in detox program (the worst I relapsed 2 days after I got out) I heard that they recently labeled drug addiction as a mental illness along with bi polar but I think the Bi polar label is a blanket term a long time ago it was called manic depression and it meant extreme highs and lows now it's just Bi polar disorder applied to anyone for whatever reason
Hope you can fight the addiction. It’s the hardest thing to do but really worth it.
ha! i like how the old lady said theres food addiction too when kim was saying theres no excuse for addiction like throwing it at scott when she cant put down the food lmaooo
Cannot stand Bill Maher! Scott knew what he was talking about!!
Thanks Scott for putting Bill in his place. There are times when he is right and others when he is wrong and this time Bill was completely wrong. That lady too, she was clueless and wanted to participate in the discussion, but if you don't know anything you are there to learn, not offer opinion.
Hes sober here..
Scott was sharp and on it here. Good to try to remember him this way. RIP.
Anyone that hasn't been in the deepest throws of addiction will NEVER understand the uncontrolable insanity. The insanity where a mother that clean and sober would die for their child but in the grasp of addiction would feed their fix before their baby, or stare harm to self or incarsaration and still do whatever it takes to get their drug or alcohol of choice. It takes a life long commitment once self admitting to ones self they are helpless to drugs/alcohol and changing people places, and things in theirs lifes, never becoming complacent because an addicts brain will lie, cheat and steal your life from you
To that older woman, did you go through a serious withdrawal if you didn't have that brownie? No you didn't. Not all addictions are equal or have similar circumstances when trying to quit.
She's not "addicted" if she can simply say no so easily. People with healthy brains will never understand
Watch Scott's eyes around 11:17 it is his reaction to Bill's comments about how simple "free choice" is when it comes to addiction around the 11:10 mark.
Dr. Drew either already knew Scott had an addiction or just realized it after Scott spoke and then tried to stick up for Scott.
Dr Drew mentioned something about how he had helped Scott somehow? So he knew already.
he stated he had seen him "in the throws of his addiction" so I am guessing he may have been a patient at one point? he did help a lot of celebrities even aside from that reality show
Yes, in Pasadena
Makes me think of Mike Starr-and all the rest.
💔
Scott kicked ass.
Wow Scott was such a beautiful and intelligent man it's sad that you had to leave us my heart will always forever be broken rest in peace😍😭
Few people in the moment seem able to make the point: when you’re addicted to drugs, you get SICK when you DON’T use them. It’s not just a matter of wanting them really badly, like with the brownie.
its unfortunate that the others had to interrupt Scott and not let him finish when he was talking about addiction.
I agree !!! Poor Scott is trying to say what he wants to but he looks frustrated at the same time 😡😡😡😡😡😡
@@jessicawest2862 - Just because he's not the big Rock-Star here.
@@patriciawright8786 what ?.?"???
Scott was in recovery mode here, very sad that he could not stay on this track and I don,t think it was by choice.
Maher is such a tool. I think he knows it, which sucks. Miss you Scott.
Scott is the only panelist with ANY VIRTUE OR SENSE OF TRUTH.
bill maher acting as a clown as usual. scott owns
Scott Weiland was not only incredibly talented but incredibly intelligent and eloquent. He and Dr. Drew are definitely the wisest on this panel. The skinny lady with the big hair was not very knowledgeable for an author. The “ me too” movement would definitely NOT approve of her comments.
Imagine if the issue sexual harassment is brought to the table today. Will the guests stick to their previous opinion or will they take a slightly different perspective? I sure hope it's the latter. :-) Btw, I'm only here for Scott. His fashion sense is always timeless. :-)
I'm only here for Scott too.
Rashelle Ray I as well! I miss *this* Scott...he was *SO* amazing, all the way up to just before the end...the end wasn't the best. But I'm a huge fan of almost everything he did.
this is the weirdest thing....
Weiland just being a balanced/logical human being as per usual. I miss this kind of discourse
I'm sorry but I am pretty sure (other than MAYBE the doctor) Scott Weiland knows more about addiction. You can discuss all day long but if you have not walked in those shoes you just don't know as much.
Dam Bill Maher, arguing with a doctor about medicine. Some things never change. RIP Mr Wieland
Damn, this is rare! Thanks for the upload.
This was interesting thanks for uploading and yes I just wanted to listen to scott talk
Oh Oh Oh do I remember this appearance. Beautiful. Love this and THANK YOU for posting! I have it on video tape somewhere...lol
Mental Illness has always been stigmatized and minimized, a lot of the guests opinions were purely ignorant saying addiction is just a choice
Scott was the only one who knew how destructive and debilitating addiction was, sadly that Demon claimed his life, Rest In Peace Brother, you left an indelible mark on the world with your voice 🙏
Drew you are a wonderful mind and you have a very logical and true perspective. And i appreciate your empathy.
To listen to a man describe what was going to eventually kill him is chilling.
Scott was before he’s time, man I wish he was still here. I love him, we agree with lot of the same things
I was sexually harassed. It was actually borderline sexual assault. I worked in a clinic. And one day out of the blue, the director smacked my ass and then made inappropriate comments saying “You’re butt sits up really high, I didn’t realize you were so tight. I meant to smack you on the back”. And did it in front of our co workers to. BRAZEN AND HORRIBLE. People, I’m completely with Scott here, because it was a woman. Not a man. And she was an out lesbian. In a relationship with one of the clinic’s nurses. And she sexually harassed me. And I did leave my job. But not for her. I ended up TAKING her job. Then went to work in state government. So there’s more than one way to get justice 🤣 Scott was so intelligent and very open about himself. He was brave. And a lyrical genius with a voice of such beauty of the likes not heard since Jim Morrison. He tried so hard to get through to them about the mind and perspective of an addict and what it was like on that side of the coin. None so deaf as those who refuse to hear. Of course we know now that addiction is a disease. And they have isolated the genomes that addicts have that are different from those that are not predisposed to addiction. Which is why one person can drink and not become an alcoholic and another person can have a drink and they are an alcoholic from moment on. Whether they get sober or not. Bill Mahr and Gurley Brown look and sound really stupid here knowing what we know now. Also, it’s the very thinking that I don’t need any help to get sober because it’s simply willpower that will save me is exactly how people never get passed their addictions and actually get sober!!! It’s that thinking that kills people!! Idiots.
I love that Drew and Scott are the only ones making intelligent and articulative statements. Bill is great. But I feel like Drew and Scott we’re under appreciated for their input.
Like Layne said in the song, Junkhead.
You can't understand the users mind.
Try with your books and degrees..
You can't*
@@Groasis74 I changed it
Thanks for pointing that out..
It seems to me that Dr. Drew did have a clear picture of the users mind, at least more so than the magazine hag and the comedian. Anyway yeah it's a cool song. It was written to be somewhat hypocritical which I think makes it better too. The live version they do for the single's release party was awesome!
Back in the 90s I didn't have no Cable TV so this was my first time seeing Scott Weiland talking on a TV Show
Scott you were fantastic.
Man, Bill Maher is horrible.
Disgusting
He always has been, always will be.
Bill Maher came off like a smug child when it came to addiction. His attitude and conviction toward addiction as a whole is a sign that he doesn't really care to learn about it and applies his own anecdotal experiences toward it.
They didnt let Michael Hutchence speak either.
Scott.Beautiful baby.we love you. Rip.
All that intelligence died with him. He was a very gifted Rockstar, I miss what could have been, and I miss you Scott. 💔
Scott hits it! Great stuff!
Pisses me off. Nobody chooses to be an addict.
This is a very important interview … in the legacy of Scott Wieland & personally for Jivon Jackson. Addiction is real & not a joke. Sure we say it’s defeat-able with strength and desire.: But sometimes you think every thing is under control & ITS NOT! 🤔
Scott was 100% spot......these clowns wanted to make it a yes/no issue
Scott understands it's complicated than that.
Especially when talking about drugs....he would know.
But none are making the distinction between a drug that is physically addictive. A whole different story. Plus death seems better than withdrawing.
Damn miss Scott!!!
This was the general thinking at this time. It's very upsetting how ignorant society was regarding addiction. It's even more upsetting that some people still see addiction as a choice or lack of willpower.
Here is America’s problem now played out 19 years ago. A comedian and an author think their opinion on addiction is equivalent to that of an addictionologist, who’s spent thousands upon thousands of hours studying the disease, and an actual addict with all of his experience in that disease. Conjecture is not the colleague of expertise.
Conversations are exhausting when everyone feels like their clueless opinion is as important as informed knowledge.
Human Resources is there to protect the company not the employee
I know I’m late to the game on this but thanks for posting this video. Tonite I’ve watched a few videos on Scott Weiland, I find it brutal seeing how sharp mentally & verbally he was then, to how dulled & scattered he was towards the end of his life :-/. I don’t think the older lady & Maher couldn’t have been anymore ignorant with their attitude’s & opinion’s on drug addiction. Unless you have been a drug addict, you can’t fully grasp or fully understand it, therefore 🤐
Kinda makes me dislike Bill Maher and question whether his opinions change based on his ratings....Kept telling Weiland to shut up(Maher told him multiple times) as if his opinion didn't matter on an opinioned forum where he was invited. Dismissed him because he is a rockstar and drug addict.
Oh Scott 😩 to see you like this and to see what happened to you and how you ended up. Why did no one around you help you. RIP you wonderful man.
Scott was a brilliant, talented, opinionated man that had the worst of demons. So grateful to have had him and his music in my life. ✌️❤️🤘🙏🏻
Scott Weiland smartest guy in the room with the least amount of education... Irony much. Experience over college still wins out. Love you Scott and miss you.
The stench of the stigma surrounding addiction and mental illness is strong here. RIP Scott Weiland.
I have a really easy way to help people understand addiction. See how long you can go without any one of these things: food, hydration, using the bathroom, sleeping, breathing. And if you struggle to go without it or you give in, have your friends and family berate you and ask why you’re so weak. That’s what it feels like. That’s what Drew meant when he was talking about survival. It feels the same as a craving for water when you’re dehydrated. Like you’ll die without it. Not drinking water is a choice, in theory. But after long enough, if the water exists anywhere near you, your brain will force your body to consume it.
Yeah, it’s a choice whether you sip alcohol ever in your life. Sure. But most people who judge addicts have not avoided alcohol for their entire lives or at least know and respect people in their lives who have tried alcohol. The judgement needs to stop.
These people that aren’t addicts don’t have a clue what they’re talking about
It's like the old saying, theyll bring you to their territory and theyll beat you with experience
I love how the slim chick tells the thick chick food can be an addiction
Love listening to opinions that are literally flying in the face of solid science. Everyone but weiland and the doc are literally arguing against gravity in the addiction “debate”. One side says solid facts the other garbage.
RIP - Scott Weiland
Scott weiland was a pilot. A stone temple pilot. He was pretty amazing with stp. Long live Weland Wyland Woaland!
