Too Much Politics

Revisado: 12-28-24

I’m not judging Anthony, but I didn’t purchase this book to hear about his political views and criticism of several politicians, with one in particular over and over again. I did however, enjoy listening to his stories of the things he has experienced and the many lives he’s helped and saved, and I wholeheartedly thank him for his service.

I didn’t really enjoy the content of him complaining about how women have treated him, and how life has not been that fair to him. We’ve all gone through rough patches, some way more than others. I’ve personally come very close to death more times than I even want to think about, but I don’t dwell on the past, I move forward with a very positive attitude.

And my final thought: if I could not pronounce the word, “ask,” and instead said, “ax, or axed,” I would’ve hired someone to narrate for me. If it was a word he only used a few times, no biggie, but it was one of the most used words in the book. Again, I’m not judging the man, this is constructive criticism. Overall I think (dare I say it), Anthony has a bit of an ego.

Remember the acronym for EGO: Easing God Out…

Great read! The only negative I can state is that it’s not long enough! Looking forward to the next one, Josh…

Didn’t realize this was for women only…

Revisado: 11-01-24

I stumbled upon this podcast, and was enjoying it, as I’ve been in recovery (ODAAT) for almost 20 years now. For all the years I used, I never abused my girlfriends, my wife, or any woman, as I just was raised right. I don’t want the reason I stopped listening to this to sound like I’m being sensitive, but the author of this episode should be ashamed of herself, as her comment, “men, who needs them,” is just contributing to all the bs going on in the world today. To paint with such a broad brush just because YOU ended up spending 20+ years with a bad seed isn’t fair towards all the other good men out there today. I’ve been divorced for 7 years and although I’m not desperate to find my “other half,” hearing comments like this from a sour grape just reminds me to do my due diligence before getting into a serious relationship with any woman. That’s so unfair towards all the good women out there, but as long as most women continue to be this way, they’re unfortunately going to miss out on having an AMAZING man in their lives. #nothingchangesifnothingchanges

The K-Man Cometh

Revisado: 09-24-24

In my opinion, it starts out a little convoluted, but he eventually catches my complete attention and never lost me after that. I love the realness of Michael, and the fact that he explains in detail what’s going on in his head. That’s pure vulnerability and honesty, and to me that’s what everyone writing a biography should be like, or don’t bother!! Great job Michael, I can so very much relate to your feelings on many occasions throughout this great book! God Bless You brother…

Thank you Joseph, for opening my eyes to what was right in front of me! I have a lot of work to do, but you just provided me with the tools I need to accomplish this! I’m also a big believer in listening to God when He speaks to me, and today was the day that He has been promising, so thank you Joseph and THANK YOU GOD! 🙏🏼👍🏼☝🏼✊🏼

I Just Couldn’t Keep Track

Revisado: 07-14-24

I thought it was rather boring, big disappointment here, I expected so much more. I also sometimes had an issue with understanding exactly what he was saying.

I could truly relate to Anthony’s story, well, other than I’m not a rockstar. 😆

I’ve been in recovery for a few 24 hours now, and the experiences he survived were similar. I can recall having a PICC line in my heart being fed with liquid “milk” in a bag through an IV for months at a time, walking through the streets of Boston ingesting Fentanyl before anyone even knew what it was. I am so happy for you Anthony, as ya can’t beat being sobah! 😆

Real & Raw!

Revisado: 12-27-23

Being an addict/alcoholic in recovery myself, I could SO identify with Laura on many occasions and levels, as although we’re different people, the world of addiction can be so eerily similar. I loved the fact that MacKenzie really let it ALL out, as she must’ve felt so much better that she wasn’t hiding those demons deep down inside anymore! I would be remiss if I didn’t mention how disturbing it was to hear how her sorry excuse for a father raped her regularly, and even MORE disturbing when she said she eventually consented to it! There is no doubt that drugs and booze took me to places that I should’ve never been, but as effed up as I would get at times, I would have NEVER crossed that heinous threshold! I’d like to say that I’m not judging Laura, as I truly try not to judge anyone, but sometimes I guess it’s only human. In no way, shape or form am I blaming her, that obviously goes to her POS father. All my life whenever I heard “The Mamas and The Papas,” I would be happy to listen and sing along, but now when I hear any of it I’ll be thinking of that MONSTER singing… Still love Laura, and I truly wish her nothing but the very best!!
