DON'T MISS OUT on the special opportunity our guest, Steven, has given us to watch his award-winning show, Methtacular!, as filmed at the prestigious Steppenwolf Theatre for free on YouTube.

Be sure to send him a 'thank you' on Twitter @stevenstrafford!

Mark sits down with guest, Steven Strafford, to have a frank discussion about his 15 years of sobriety from both alcohol and other drugs, including methamphetamine. Their discussion spans various topics from early avoidance of seeking out the recovery community, through impact of substance abuse on sexual dynamics, to the wonderful way Steven has embraced his own brand of gangliness to be such an inspirational example of being "sober out loud."
Steven Strafford is a playwright and actor. His award-winning solo show, Methtacular! has been performed across the country at LORT theaters and universities. Methtacular! was filmed at Steppenwolf Theatre in 2019. His play, Small Jokes About Monsters, was produced in Chicago, Sioux City, and Houston (nominated - Houston Theatre Award) It is set to be published by Broadway Licensing later this year. His play, The Match Game, won the 2022 Jackie Demaline award. His play, Greater Illinois, was an officially selection at GPTC, MATC, and Tantrum East's new play development series. He lives with his husband and foster son in southeastern Ohio where he is getting an MFA. As an actor, he once was directed by Mike Nichols, and that was pretty cool.
