A Review of Broken People by Sam Lansky

Sam Lansky’s Broken People explores a young man’s search for healing from self-induced anxieties driven by a constant, judging inner dialogue. This semi-autobiographical novel shines a light on human vulnerability—an honest and often humorous look at self-discovery’s messy, complicated process. Doing the math, the real-life Sam would have been around seven years sober when this book was published.

Pamela Anderson has been Reborn

Pamela Anderson is embracing a new chapter—both in her personal life and on the big screen. The Baywatch icon, who has been candid about her past struggles with addiction, is now in a place of peace and clarity, crediting her sons for keeping her grounded. In a recent interview, she reflected on how close she came to a tragic fate, admitting, "There were many times I could have ended up like Amy Winehouse." However, Anderson has chosen resilience over self-destruction, embracing a life that prioritizes wellness, balance, and artistic fulfillment.

Her latest role in The Last Showgirl is a dazzling career moment that feels deeply personal. Starring as Shelly, a Vegas performer confronting the twilight of her career, Anderson delivers a poignant, career-defining performance that mirrors her own reinvention. The film, directed by Gia Coppola, has earned her critical praise and major award nominations, solidifying her as a serious actress beyond the blonde bombshell persona. With a newfound appreciation for authenticity—both on-screen and off—Anderson is proving that reinvention isn’t just possible; it’s powerful.

The Price of Sobriety: A Reflection on Guinness and the Sober Journey

I come from a long line of Guinness drinkers. Sundays after church, my siblings and I would Irish step dance at the local Irish bar while the grown-ups threw back pints, the rich scent of Guinness lingering in the air. I have vivid memories of picking daffodils outside The Dubliner in Washington, D.C., wearing my green dancing dress, my shawl fastened with Celtic cross pins with little emerald shamrocks. I dreamed of one day visiting Ireland, the land of my ancestors, and drinking Guinness at every pub along the way.

The Year of the Dog (2023) Review: Addiction, Recovery, and the Healing Power of a Husky

When it comes to movies about addiction and recovery, I’m always looking for stories that go beyond the typical rock-bottom narrative. The Year of the Dog does a solid job of portraying the first 30 days of sobriety—the emotional rollercoaster, the struggle to trust others, and how every single day feels like both a battle and a triumph. But what I really want is a sequel. I want to see Matt at five years sober, because that’s where things get really interesting.
