Sometimes we do drugs to keep a party going that died years ago.
yes mate. that was what i'm trying to do all the years when i was on.
Well said
Yeah was just to get the juice out of it cause the company was good
That’s pretty dead on
Damn.... wow.
Not all addictions are the same. I’m an alcoholic and for me quitting cigarettes was nothing. But I drink a fifth of vodka every day. And I know plenty of people who would claim that cigarettes are the hardest drug to quit, including my own mother. And my best friends mom, who died from chronic copd as a result of smoking. I’m trying to get into a treatment center for the third time to detox and perhaps solve my alcoholism. Wish me luck!
Luck is for losers. I commend you for acknowledging you have a problem and trying to get help. Why do you drink? Maybe deal with the root problem, is it to fill a void? Deal with trauma? Figure that out and it might make your sobriety easier. But also remember you won’t quit until you truly want to quit.
Good luck dude!
Start buy quitting hard alcohol and drink water beer like coors light or miller light and slowly try to taper off. Its not easy especially if your super chemically dependent and im not saying its a good substitute because its still alcohol and you can still suck down a rack of beers and get hammered.
I use to throw up when I was drinking heavily and smoking cigarettes. Thought it was the alcohol, it was actually the cigs that made me sick. I would smoke so many in a short time the aftertaste in my mouth was awful and I would vomit. Didn't really ever throw up as much when I quit the cigs and drank
The true measure stick is not that of focus on the fall but rather the disgusting grind to get up....good on ya, weather 1 time winner or 10 time loser, get up....
I have 10 at least treatment detox rodeos...every time there was a lesson, something's to absorb. You will find this...if u look..
I'm a veteran, was actually addicted to alcohol and cigarettes. Got severely traumatized, i also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Congrats buddy. I want to become a mycologist because honestly mushrooms are the best form of medicine (not just psychedelic ones) There are so many people today using magic mushrooms to ween off of SSRI medication- its amazing! Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death buddy, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
YES very sure of mycologist Predroavaro. Helped me get rid of my life long depression and BPD.
Thanks for sharing your story. That's rough I sympathize. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, cocaine, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health. I will pray for you all.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
I was an intern at the studio Stone Sour recorded one of their records in (2nd one i think). Corey had busted a glass and spilt it all over the floor and i happened to walk by and see it. I went in and started cleaning it up and when he came back in the room with a handful of towels he physically picked me up and said “dude you do not need to clean up after me” then got on his knees and cleaned it up himself. Then he started talking to me like i was one of his buddies, me and Jim would smoke outside every day together (and Jim would always give me a cig since i didn’t really smoke i never had any lol) seriously cool dudes and not at ALL what i would’ve expected from everything i’d seen as a kid when slipknot first came out
That was interesting, thanks for the story
Cool
That's awesome
That’s a cool story man. Hope you’re doing well
so, he's a normal person.
why do you all act like this is something exceptional?
Imagine leaving Corey to die and few years later you watch him become a legend.
talk about truly being reborn
Legend of what? His band f$cking blows.
My friends threw me away.
That's one of the most sad and fucked up things i've heard.
I just imagine they're in a bar, they hear Slipknot and recognize his voice and are like "hey, we know him. we left him in a dumpster once because we thought he was dead, lol" and get their asses beat.
Okay “epic gen x” 😹 ur probably into league of legends music 💀💀 u don’t get to say nun. Ur music taste blows 😭😭
I remember hearing that story about the dumpster. But Steve O with the mind blowing question, “what if there was a perfectly good explanation for that? “ I couldn’t help but laugh a little 😂.
Got me thinking too. Maybe he just got black out drunk and in his drunken state he climbed into the dumpster and passed out. Imagine his friends just wondering where he went😂
@@trendkill3333 Could definitely have happened, stimulant psychosis and paranoia is no joke lol.
@@trendkill3333 eh a bit suspicious being so far away from the party. They were trying to hide a body.
He was probably annoying and got tossed
Blackouts can be fuked up
Been clean 10 years next month. Really cool seeing heros of mine doing the same thing
Lesss gooo
Steveo getting clean was incredibly inspirational and all the legends being able to as well! Good job man glad we can find support in hero’s we’ve never met
8yrs for me next month! Congratulations brother!
@@007phokus way to go brother.
Thanks guys. The comments and likes really means a lot. To the ones in recovery keep going. Even on the worst day of your life being clean and sober is the way to face it. Getting fucked up only make it a million times harder. Once again thank all of you. It really great to get positive feed back for a change. 99% of the time if I bring it I usually get called a junkie and waste of skin
lol "cool to talk about sobriety?"
"yeah man"
"what was your drug of choice?"
damn, he went right into talking about drugs, not sobriety 😂😂
Actually, if you've ever been to a meeting or a rehab, that's usually how the conversation starts. If you've never had an alcohol or drug addiction, I understand that this is weird to you but it's actually a form of therapy.
I lol'd 😝
Great interview, Corey is llegit. Lookin good Steve-O!
lol My thoughts exactly! Most addicts who have been clean any amount of time are cool to talk about drugs, thankfully. But that was hilarious.
Sobriety is the drug of not doing drugs. The drug you're trying not to do is the whole issue.
I’m hella used to interviewees that don’t know how to actually answer questions but Corey is very good at it, makes you feel a lot more immersed in the conversations. He doesn’t want to talk about himself but wants to actually respond to the questions
Corey loves talking about himself. The self proclaimed 'great big mouth'
Corey is the man, out of everyone on this planet he’s the one dude I want to meet big time, and don’t get me wrong there is a few others, but to work with him or collaborate is a dream indeed.
I've met him and he is 100 percent like this one on one and literally forgot I was talking to Corey the legend and was talking to Corey the man he's so down to earth ego aside hung out with him at a Stone sour meet n greet afterwards Leigh kakaty from pop evil decided to be a bar tender and gave out free drinks 😂
@@sweetlynsane1287 that'd be fuckin awesome! 🤘
@@that1guy899 it was I had to get buzzed to meet him so glad I did got the pics to prove it I paid 100 bucks for the ticket vip meet n greet early admission for stone sour and it was the best 100 bucks I ever spent .. he even called me out they came out to Return of the Mac to troll the fans and I started a dance pit more like a grind pit 😂 and he called me out on it they watched from back stage and it back fired
Hearing Corey talk about how it no longer gave him pleasure to do drugs and stuff really sits with me. Its given me motivation to get out of this rut and it couldn't have come at a better time 🙏🏻
Do it for corey haha
@@coreywheatcroft1374 Bro that's pretty selfish asking him to do it for you
I hope you find your way.
I'm with you here too
@@topnug7626 lmao
Alcohol is the easiest drug to find. Thats why a lot of people cant stay away from it when they know they have an issue. Glad all these dudes got out of their addictions! \m/
I'm an active alcoholic and I couldn't agree more. Waiting to get into detox in the next couple weeks.
@@onthefasttracktoheaven God bless you, brother. May God please bless you and your efforts.
It is the easiest and by god does it make you feel like complete crap. The hangovers, the insomnia, the depression and anxiety, the shaking, the dehydration, the digestive problems that ensue. I hate it.
@@ovtheabyss84 God bless, hope you're living a good life ♥
....Caffeine. Thats the easiest to find. Then alcohol of course.
"I'm sorry who's Paul grey"
You can hear the disgust in steve-o's voice that he didn't know
He educated him REAL quick. Didn’t even hesitate 😅
I found that so disrespectful. If you are interviewing someone the least you can do is glance across their wiki page.
Just wanted to point it out also... Steve-O reaction was just perfect 1) he educated him 2) he gave him just a little bit of shame to know that he is unprrpared 3)he responded FAST remaining respect and not giving time for Corey to get frustrated about this question...
@Arthur Yup, I agree with you. They definitely over reacted because of how close they are to Paul. I doubt even half of the viewers knew who he was, so the context was needed.
yeah props to steve-o for researching his subject and knowing the importance of Paul in this conversation
You can see it in Steve-o's eyes he understands. Good interview very deep.
Yep and I bet it’s rare when Steve O can relate to someone like that
@@ronburgundy7202 Well hes been to 12 step programs like us addicts. It's one spot we can all relate, if your poor or famous.
Today is my day , I don't get anything out of it anymore, thanks Corey been a fan since the beginning and thank you steve-0
So how'd the day go?
@@nemideergoon1844 hes back on it
We lost another one
Good shit man! Keep it going.
Stay strong dude
“THERES STILL A PART OF ME THATS DYING IN A DUMPSTER”
Yes!
The one who rose is a motherfuckin monster
Not many can relate or conceive of going from being treated like literal trash then rising to God-like notoriety.
Love that these guys can talk about about their sobriety and addiction and not shy away from it. Thanks for sharing Corey ✌🏽
E
Sobriety happened for my wife and I in exactly the same way. We were both full blown alcoholics for years and one day we woke up sick and hungover af as usual and were both like "I can't do this anymore". That was last July and even the thought of drinking is disguting still
Glad to hear you’re both sober. One day at a time bro, and welcome to your better life from here and on ✌🏼
Full blown alcoholics can't just quit. You can die
@@EL1TEONE That is not true. It's how many years you've been an alcoholic that can cause you to die from quitting.
@@EikottXD The people that die are already at the point of full blown alcoholism. Stop trying to justify shit kid.
Respect
One of the most underrated minds in the music industry. He is so well-spoken and intelligent.
Underrated? Lmao
@@caffeineaddictlolecksdee keyword being *MINDS*
@@caffeineaddictlolecksdee then what is all that the “what does Corey Taylor think?” about? Looooool
What do you mean underrated? He is literally one of the biggest and most loved metal vocalists of all time...
Are you guys joking? What great music has he done? Ever since the 3-4 Iowa song everything since then is boring as hell. They just kept it going with the masks. You guys are easily amused.
Thank you guys for sharing. Slipknot got me through junior high. Had my own substance abuse problems(OC->H)and iv been 5 years clean from it. It’s wonderful to hear you two(Steve-o and Corey) share your experiences. Much Love from CA
holy shit five years!!! so so so proud of you man!!!!! i hope you’re doing well!! :^D
Seems like every addict that manages to recover has this moment of clarity where they suddenly see that this behaviour is not serving them anymore and their path becomes much clearer from then on.
that's exactly what we call it in the meetings too lol moments of glorious agonizing clarity brought about by rock bottoms. Literal ones, in the case of dumpster man here E> that's so fuckin rough
It's called rock bottom.
Also I think doing normal real life stuff when you’re fucked up all of the time is very difficult and when you sober up, doing everything you want/need to do is just a whole lot easier and enjoyable since you’ve been playing life on hard mode for so long.
I was addicted to Benadryl and went from taking 3 pills daily to 5 or 6 pills at a time. I stopped because I was losing memory and it felt like I was losing intelligence. It sounds funny but I genuinely felt like I was becoming dumber from the brain damage from excessive diphenhydramine use. I once drank about 4-5 doses of ZZZquil, (also diphenhydramine), and once the affects kicked in I couldn't breathe and I was phasing in and out of consciousness. That one experience scared me into getting off of it. I can happily say I haven't touched diphenhydramine in about 3 months. Some people think regular over the counter drugs cant be addicting and abused, and they are wrong. The feeling you get from Benadryl is almost like a weed high. Its dangerous and it can seriously damage your kidneys and liver.
God bless Cory and Steve O. I coming up on 10 years sober. It's beautiful to see people happy in sobriety. 👏💪🤙
The support they give each other is astounding! They talk about these things and I believe that’s a big part of keeping sober IMO you never want or need to go back.
These talks help addicts; including myself, not a full blown cure but just hearing these things makes me humbled and content
Sometimes I watch this stuff when I'm about to give in to moments of weakness.
One cool thing about social media, podcasts, RUclips and other forms of social interaction these days is that people are able to share stories like this and about living sober. It is such a positive influence to to many people to hear guys like this and so many others speak about sobriety. Helps to normalize the sober lifestyle and make people realize that they are actually not giving up anything by giving up the substances, they are actually gaining so much more in their lives. I hope more young people see how cool it is to be sober and never have to go thru what so many of us did to get to this point.
This guy has a hell of a voice. Respect to him.
Corey or that guy in glasses?
That's an understatement, Corey sounds live exactly how he sounds on the album.
Steve-o's voice sounds so strained
@@M00NBULLET I think it's more his natural voice than from smoking, although it may have roughed his voice some. I smoked heavy for nearly as long and have known even more people who have smoked for longer than that and we don't sound that strained. I think it's just his voice.
@@jokornerq uhhh....
I love how stevo’s dog chilling with him
do you know where the dog came from? if you dont, look it up.
Wendy is as much a legend as Steveo
@@slipknot42088 yeah he rescued her from peru
Wendy is the goat
I just celebrated 2 years clean. Guys like Corey, Nikki, Steveo, etc. have been a huge inspiration to me. Thanks for such a great video!
Congrats, that is huge!!!
Congrats, thats awesome!
I like how Cory doesn't let himself be interrupted.
I think it's just the delay from the video call that's causing all those interruptions.
Sigma Grindset
He’s used to screaming over thousands of people. It just comes natural
cuz he is corey taylor
Because theres a link delay..
but yeah love it lol
So many comments on here for supporting sobriety♥️ makes me feel good on the inside knowing that genuine care is still out there ❤️
I felt the same way when I got clean. I woke up and said, "I think I'm done with this." Something clicked that day and it's been 7 months and I'm still going strong and don't intend to ever go back.
I effing Love how these men (and women on the show) talk about becoming and staying sober. I wish to one day be in that percentage. Life is good, life is worth it, we are all worth it. Stay safe folks!
This is a great interview. Corey is the man.
Saw him at Riot in Chicago last night. Probably one of the greatest shows I’ve been too.
No I am . You've been lied to
Yeah, screw MGK 😂
That's cool he can just put down the drugs and alcohol. I've been struggling off and on for the last 14 years I'm 31 now and I feel like this is it, it's time to grow up homeboy. Never give up, there's so many people out there that are doing it, so can we..
Do it...seriously. I finally got clean at 33 (I'm 35 now) and I wish that I would have done it sooner. Take that leap, bite the bullet and just get through it. Don't let the detox scare you. Once you're on the other side of it, that feeling of accomplishment and freedom is the greatest feeling in the world. My eyes are watering just thinking about that. Whew... But yeah, it's definitely worth the effort and struggle.
I believe you will
I used opiates for 10 years straight ( 24-34) and managed to walk away cold turkey after 4 years straight of constant relapse after relapse. Eventually it will stick if you really want it. Trust me, I've overdosed 5 times and was in such a dark place I had pretty much just accepted the fact I was going to die. Thankfully that wasn't the case and I can say I'm truly clean and sober today.
pshh, nobody force you to use those things. Just dont use.
@@OriginalThisAndThat That's not how addiction works lol
I was at the Stone Sour Come What(ever) May listening party, here in London, and met Corey when I was an impressionable teen.
The dude was really, really cool. I don't know what I expected going in, but Corey was nothing but polite and incredibly friendly, that experience really stuck with me as a hugely positive one.
I remember him briefly telling us of some problems he had, and overcoming them. Really good to see he's just been progressing as an awesome dude year after year.
Cant even imagine how our heads would have exploded if me and my friends got to watch these 2 guys talk when they were at their peak in our teen years.
Cory: "I OD'd twice as a teen."
Dude: *like he just said he went to the grocery store* "yeh"
How else should he say it
I remember when the first slipknot album came out, wow! I seen them at a small bar in Birmingham Al at 5 points south, they COMPLETELY blowed the roof off of that joint!! And I mean it was DESTROYED!!!
Me and my friends had been up on meth for 4 days and eating mushrooms, they opened up with "spit it out" and my mind was blown! It was BRUTAL!!! Just for the record I been clean 6 years now, and Steve O you are a huge inspiration to me!
Hey, what year & what bar? I’m originally from BHam.
Meth, mushrooms, and Slipknot sounds like a wild combination.
I'm from Birmingham. Curious to know what bar they played in. Funny, now they're playing the BJCC and auditoriums across the country.
thanks for being always willing to talk about sobriety . listening to you and your guests stories on the topic/struggle have really helped me. im in my 30's living in SoCal starting over. I have the least amount of material things in my life ,the least amount of money but I'm happier then I've ever been being sober.
I love how the kid asks who Paul is and most fans would bash him for it when a member of the actual band was chill about it lol
Sober 4 years now! Dont got any wild stories. Just happy for you guys and am proud to see my idols sober too.
This is a highly respective conversation. Good for yall.
Good for you Corey for being stronger than chemicals and knowing when they start degrading life, not enhancing it. Plus props for talking openly about it and showing others they can be strong enough to quit as well
Great interview. Corey knows with words and how to express himself. Thanks for sharing.
Steve-O's dog looks so precious.
Love you Steve-O and Corey you've been a music idol to me for almost 15 years
I’m 44 days sober atm from dabbing concentrates weed. I feel wonderful! My lungs feels healthier and my wallet. Nice to hear sober stories sick podcast!
Obv weed isn’t as harmful as the other substances but people forget to realize that weed can be very addicting and even destroy your life in a sense. Congrats to you my dude
Dabs can fr be a pain in the ass to quit, def more addicting physically n mentally than flower
@@Sloneyyy imo if you let smoking weed destroy your life you just have no motivation to do anything
GOOD More Wax for me to Dab!!!!!
@@ggallen3156 Hes talking about dabbing not smoking, Idk if you have ever dab before, i have many times and it has put me in another fucking planet, like out on the couch and this is coming from a 20 years plus dope head lol. I hardly smoke weed though.
Being from a medical state, dabs are literally my medication. Loves that slymer
I love this interview and it really does take a big person to admit. to your personal problems to the whole world
Man, I can relate to his story so much, both in terms of how much he used to drink (and the whole mentality of never drinking casually, but drinking with the intention of going full throttle) as well as his mindset of just deciding one day that he wasn't getting anything out of it anymore and giving it up with his own willpower. For me it was last July after downing a bottle of tequila one night and waking up feeling like my entire body had been poisoned. I just decided I didn't want to inflict that on myself anymore, and I haven't looked back since. And it's weird because I would get blackout drunk almost every weekend since I turned 21 (I'm 32 now) but once I decided to stop, I just stopped and moved on. I am pretty sure I have ADHD (which apparently is often linked to addiction / impulse control) and one of the things that people with ADHD can experience is a lack of ability to focus on anything other than what they enjoy, but the things they *do* enjoy they will have trouble moderating. So I have a theory that my brain became fixated on alcohol for years and that's why I was into it so much and let it dominate my life; but once I decided I was done with alcohol, it was like that flip switched in my brain, and as I lost interest my ADHD took me in a new direction and just abandoned it. I've barely even been tempted to drink at all. I guess I'm lucky but it's weird to hear such a similar experience from Taylor because usually alcoholics will talk about how difficult it was to stay sober and how recovery helped them, so it's rare to hear someone else with a story so similar to my own.
im as chill as the dog sleeping on steve-o
so adorable
Ive struggled my entire life with addiction. Today im 3 days clean and sober. Giving the sobriety life another chance, cause im worth it
You are worth it my friend. Best of luck
How are you doing Matty? Addict myself. 12 years

Love Corey Taylor relate to him so hard. Snuff is my favorite love song he does obviously because the meaning behind it. Alcohol and cigarettes fill a void from a traumatized past.

Steve-o your podcast game is on fire. Thanks for the content.
Respect to Cory for talking about addiction so candidly. I was a pill/speed addict. Addiction is rough to pull yourself out of.
Same thing here, currently using at the moment unfortunatly. Its a pain in the ass.
Great interview Steve-O, props. Corey seems like he would be a great friend..
I definitely relate to that “switch” it’s almost baffling the moment it happens. And once it happens the first time, it’s much easier to trigger the following times
Creating new pain to numb the old pain. Yup, sums up mine & addiction in general
Shit happens; to make new shit happen.

@Deus Nah Satan. Not today, or tomorrow
I've met and had an extended talk with Corey Taylor. He's a really good person, highly intelligent, friendly, funny/silly, and incredibly well spoken. You can just tell by talking and being around him he was always destined to be a star. It's good to see that he's gotten sober. Proud of both these guys!
You guys really opened my eyes to the possibilities of what you can do in the back of the van
Once you know Corey and the real story of all the slipknot members… it makes you listen to their music differently 🤘🏼❤️
How would I find the story? I'm a huge slipknot fan and feel ashamed not to know the bands background, and would love to know!
@@raffatoot4581 I find it best not to know anything about any band. Just like the music. Trust me, knowing can be depressing.
@@Frip36 but that’s what makes it best, when you know the band you can connect with them and their music so much deeper
@@bmxalex1124 Like when each band member is suing the other. Or stealing song credit and royalties? Or hasn't bothered seeing his son for 9 years. Yeah, that makes the music so much deeper.
I agree so much with this. Was never a fan before until I started reading about them and then I could understand their music.
I love Corey's mindset on learning from your mistakes it helps put things into perspective. I turned into bit of an alcoholic once I turned 21 and drank a lot of whiskey because I thought it was cool. 8 months later I met my fiancée and my alcohol abuse got bad to the point I poisoned myself a month after we met. I had to make a choice where either I chose alcohol or her. I switched it off like Corey did because there are healthier things worth living for. I've been sober for two and a half years and don't plan on drinking ever again. So if you are struggling with alcoholism just find healthy distractions and alternatives like hanging out with people that want to see the best you no matter where you are coming from.
I don’t understand why people drink themselves to death. Just drink to chill and get a nice buzz so you can wake up tmr and go about your usual business.

I can’t stop. I have lost everything.
I’m so sorry to here that. As a recovering alcoholic and a person whose girlfriend is a a pretty severe one, my heart goes out to you, and I hope you’re OK. Nine months ago is a pretty long time, and I hope you have found peace since writing this comment 🙂
This guy has the most amazing heavy metal voice. Can hit any octave he likes, dudes insane.
Look up Devon Townsend as well
Steve o's voice and laugh distorts my speaker.
Yeahhhhhh duuuuuude!
🤣 LMAO
Steve-o Is fucking handsome ..like how ,after alll the shit he’s been through. He just gets even better looking !?
Being sober, able to afford new teeth, having a stylist on hand, and having access to endless self care products, tends to do that.
his mindset is humbling and inspirational to say the least. im glad i found this
I have that "switch" also, I've struggled with destructive behaviors my whole life but when I get to a certain point and say that's enough I can stop on a dime, idk what it is... I've lost 150 lbs and kept it off for 12 years now and overcame beign eating, stoped smoking/drinking and doing drugs... I did all this stuff at different points in my life for a long period of time, but I've been able to change it around by myself when I get to a certain point.
Me too. I stopped doing drugs aside from an occasional joint just all of a sudden about 15 years ago. Then I just stopped smoking cigarettes a few years after that. In January I decided I was done being so overweight and out of shape and have managed to lose about 45 lbs, dropped multiple sizes in clothes, and toned up a LOT. I still drink but almost never to the point of inebriation. Maybe a nice buzz. Just a nice whiskey and a cigar once in a while.
Sept 19th is 5 years without alcohol for me. I only do drugs under doctors' supervision, 3 right now, an antacid, a mental health medication, and MMJ.
interesting, weed is my worst vice im stopping
This will be controversial, but as a kid, these kinds of conversations caused me (a sort of sick, masochistic person) to believe I could go through a drug phase and just quit and go sober rather than avoid them altogether.
I know they always suggest ppl avoid them and warn of the negatives, but they should emphasize the fact that they were fortunate enough to get clean bc most people in their situation don’t.
And I know it helps sober people or people trying to quit and I don’t blame them at all, I just think those caveats are so important.
i agree. im 36 and back in my day we didn't even know what real addiction was. i didn't have a clue what withdrawals were. all we had was dare which just said "all drugs are bad mmmkkk". yeah. so educational. smh. i just though a junky was a homeless drunk on the street. not knowing how badly opiates infiltrated the suburbs and my friends start overdosing and dying. its all fun and games until its not. today its common knowledge and everyone has a loved one who's an addict. especially with how openly discussed it is. fuckin Perdue pharma man. they started the opiate crisis but back then society was just naïve. only when the homecoming king and queen start dying did people wake up. nowadays its almost too common. and of course with so much information being blasted at your generation, you'll obviously pick and choose what actually sticks. you have or you'd go crazy its too much. If you listened to nikki six interviews you'd get a much different picture. he doesn't just say "yeah man i did the detox in a couple days and i was all good". i applaud him for getting sober but he should have emphasized the actual difficulty. maybe that wasn't his experience. maybe he has just told the story so many times he just cuts through it quickly. any real opiate addict will tell you its not just "a couple days of detoxing and that's it". they'll tell you how they felt like their bones were trying to escape their body for weeks. how they wished they were dead. the months of physical agony and even worse mental condition. the pain of losing friends. having their family disown them. being homeless. being in jail and having a record from being so desperate to get money they had to steal from strangers and businesses after being cut off after stealing from friends and family got them kicked out of anyone's home who tried to help. that's how bad it can get. assuming you don't OD yourself. most wish they would just to stop the suffering. but hey not all experiences are the same and we cant knock that. just important for parents to teach their kids. they are the ones responsible to do that job. not Corey Taylor from slip knot. or Steve o. even though steveo went broke he still had all the resources and clout to get him proper help and back on the streets. and i don't think Corey ever went broke. most have to rely on jail or some shitty ass Medicaid rehab if they can even get a bed. i digress. anyway hope you're well. just had to go on that rant because i felt what you said. sorry its punctuation is atrocious and worded so poorly. this phone has no autocorrect that im used to. lol
I show people a thick stack of prayer cards of people Ive know that OD’d to show I was lucky to make it through
Not controversial, you’re absolutely right. I feel that so much of the “recovery” talk is often counter-productive drug glorification; I’m guilty of doing the same. Anyways, I get where you’re coming from.
@@TylerMcKinney I'm 41, and yeah everything you just said is spot on. They don't realize how glorifying using drugs can be so detrimental to some folks. Mostly younger people.
@@TylerMcKinney I hear that, friend. Appreciate the reply. You're right about the expectation of a few hellish days detoxing vs the reality of months of psychological agony and in my case, spending such a significant portion of my teen/young adult years high on opiates that when I finally kicked them for more than a couple months, I didn't recognize my own mind and became convinced I would end up taking my own life.
As a teen, the advice to never try drugs just went in one ear and out the other for me, and I'm fairly certain it was because I knew there were people out there who were functioning addicts or occasional users, or ppl who had been hooked for years and then went on to live a normal life. I always told myself I was one of those people with the fortitude to just quit when I needed to, but drugs, especially h, change your psyche so that you end up convincing yourself it's what you want, or that it's the only thing making life worth living. Always moving the goal posts and lying to yourself. It's so insidious.
Hope the best for you as well.
How you gonna ask who Paul grey is when interviewing Corey Taylor 🤦♂️
Steve o was disappointed 😭
Same thought unacceptable
I was f**king disappointed. Are you f**king kidding me
At least the guy didn’t fake it n pretend…
@@steveneakins6794 He should've, and asked Steve o after they hung up on Corey. That was awful to watch.
I met all of Slipknot when I was a young lad journalist, and they were all so nice, in particular Corey, such a lovely bloke and made so much time for me - great to see he’s still smashing it
I privately used drugs and alcohol. I’m a super charged business minded guy who swims with gators to get some excitement. One day I decided to not eat for 3 weeks. I drink water for three weeks. Got clean and feel amazing now. I was never a bad guy but now I’m a real husband and father of 5. I still have a beer here and there but figured it out. Life is right in front of us. Drugs are a slippery slope that always leads to sadness. Now I help others stay clean or keep it together. I owe this to my wonderful wife. I love you Stefanie. Your my hero
This!!!
I gotta ask, tho….you literally swim with alligators?? That’s gangster!!
I can relate to ct , statement , I was left in a ditch, was a spead freak , can totally relate, been sober for 26 years now guys , it's hard, to stay away , but my way is ," you gotta hate it " that's what keeps me clean , good luck ct and all who fight , stay down boys!!
I had a similar experience before getting sober from alcohol. Drank maybe two beers and woke up the next day on death’s door. That was it, I knew the time had been coming and at that point I just quit. Such a strange phenomenon. Quitting alcohol has opened an entirely new life for me that I enjoy, something I never had before.
I'm trying man, my body hates it now yet crave it
Same thing happened to me. Sam adams. Sometimes the beer isn't fully fermented and has unfermented yeast. Sam Adams was notorious for having a little bit of that at the bottom you weren't supposed to finish it. You would always leave about half an ounce in the bottom of a Sam Adams. I remember finishing a Sam Adams just tipping it up. I almost died the next day and I only had two beers.
Same, i woke up one day, and oddly enough i just had enough, same with smoke.. Though i am addicted to a different form of tobacco, but at least my lungs have been repaired and i feel my body have finally been healed from poisoning it will alcohol, it's a great feeling.
@@truescotsman4103 You know that you can ''shake it a little'' bit to fix that right, it's even a good idea to flick a finger on the side, just to get the bubbles going before opening, i am not talking about crazy shaking like chocolate milk or so, but that is the same principle, most of the heavy substance in the milk, goes down to the bottom, shake it to remix it, like paint. Though i don't drink American Beer, it taste awful, at least the one i tasted. Trust the beer from Denmark, it's literally the drunk version of the same language of rest of scandinavia for a reason. Though i don't encourage drinking at all, especially if you come from addiction, that ship have sailed.. You can't even enjoy a beer in the evening before getting shakes of wanting to turn up the music and keep it going.
@@birdsteak9267 you can't shake a beer it will foam over. you can mix it up but the end usually has a bit of sediment at least the sam adams i drank did. i hate beer.
it’s really cool to hear all these stories of cleaning up
Knotfest in Dallas, TX 2021 was so sick thank you Corey!
Anyone else connecting what Corey said here to his lyrics in the masterpiece Solway Firth??? Especially the line “if I’m alive tomorrow I’ll alleviate the pressure by cutting you out of me” when he said his so called friends left him in the trash and if he’s dead too them then they’re dead too him
Love having Corey on these!
Really good interview with cor.
Really elightening on slipknot. I once broke down in Waterloo Iowa and a sons of silence helped me fix my van. It was odd but very upper Midwest. Hobbled back to saint paul
Wow! I would've never guessed that Iowa was so hard-core...🤣
There's nothing else to do
Ever seen SLC punk? In a religiously oppressed state, the rage comes like FIRE! Same can be said about Iowa, nothing but farmers and catholics up there dude.
I am from Iowa. Live in Des Moines. There is a lot of meth and heroin here. It's because there is nothing to do so a lot of people do drugs.
@@sabbathjackal happens a lot in small towns. My old town is full of drugs addicts but no one took notice for decades until a kid OD’ed in class.
I was addicted to damned near everything when I was a kid. Did meth in 3rd grade. Was tripping on shooms and acid in 4th and 5th grade. Was addicted to alcohol, painkillers and coke well into my 20s. Sobered up when I was 25. Fell back into alcohol in my late 20s and finally completely quit when I was 32. My worst point was a bottle of hard liquor every night and 4grams of coke every weekend. I was such a big cokehead that I actually was the tester for the local drug dealer. He’d get a new shipment in and he’d call me up to check it out. I’d do a few lines, tell him if it was good or not and get to leave with a sizable bag of it and sometimes a little extra cash. That was a long time ago.
I really don’t feel like my life began until I got sober 2 years ago. It’s so great that so many of us can talk about soberiety now and not hide in the shadows
Amazing how STEVE-O can remember every date/ incidents/complete story.
Got 7 years heroin free! I’m 26 now with 3 beautiful babies and a great fiancé/babies mother. Never would have imagined.. especially trying to juggle a toxic family at that time and deal with my own addictions while everyone around me succumbed to their addictions. Even lost my grandma on my moms bday from an accidental prescription drug overdose. You guys can do this! Break that curse! 🙏🏼🤙🏼🖤
I'm clean now aswell but struggling to find meaning in life. What job do you do if you don't mind me asking?,
I just got off crack and meth god is good
@@jaketrat3725 you go, man
Happy you found your happiness.
Wtf did u try heroin once and them just tell everyone ur this crazy drug addict... like dude ur 26 and said ur 7 tears heroin free wtf were u doing heroin at fucking 10 years old
When Cory was a kid that rocket fuel crank was still around
Prolly more like anhydrous lol
Damn right! One little line and up for 2 days
I may never meet Corey... but his lyrics, books, and interviews have helped me so much
Steve-O and Corey Taylor. My two biggest idols having a conversation
Aim high 😆
So dope that you visited my cousins recovery center in Florida!! Im almost 3 years
Sobriety has been a huge struggle in my life. I can say I'm a full blown addict. Booze mainly, heroin, speed, pills... Anything. I've recently lost the absolute love of my life behind it.. Knocked some sense into me. I'm 1 1/2 months clean and sober and I'm trying hard to get her back. I don't know how that's gonna go but I'm staying clean and sober regardless. My life has been a series of huge failures when I use. I'm ready to start winning.
Power to you brother, everything you need is already inside your mind. You got this.
Here's to a big win coming soon! Best--
I was telling my son that a lot of songs are about drugs, not women, he says it makes since now.
they both will ruin you
Waterloo's a crazy place...glad I got out.
Wendy is such an awesome dog! Totally chilling out during the podcast.
yeah, she's completely out, she's always cuddling with him, it's so cute! You can see how much she loves and trusts him!
@@turmat01 yes she does. She hit the dog lottery when she met Steve-O. Actually he hit the dog lottery with Wendy too.
Way to rep Iowa Corey! Glad you got it turned around and released some killer music! 🙌 Reppin' Cedar Rapids, IA here!
I just hit my 2 years of sobriety Oct 7th. Pain meds were my thing. That was by far the hardest thing to kick. Cigarettes no problem, booze no problem. Pain pills were super tough! The withdrawals are no joke! I finally had enough! I was spending every dime I made on pills. It got to the point I was taking up to 30 pills a day just to not get dopesick. I finally went to an outpatient clinic and got myself cleaned up.
Good man. No mean feat. Hope you're still clean dude
Hell yea man, IOP is where it is at.
Dude was like “who is Paul Gray” lmao
I mean don’t look like the type of guy to be a slip knot fan, I didn’t know who Paul was until I became a fan like 2 years ago
Yeah that was pretty bad
thank you steven for this great sequence!

Very relatable stuff. The more people that talk about their recovery, offer more help to those that are struggling. When you succeed, other people do as well. 🥊
Cory's mentality is the best mentality to have, the only way you can really quit is to QUIT, you HAVE to say "THAT IS IT, I'M DONE", you have to want to do it for yourself man
I love Corey!! He's a hero of mine!!!! What a talent!!!!
