- This week, my HoneyDew guest is Dan St. Germain! Don't miss his latest special, "Dance Fatty, Dance!", now available on UA-cam. You can also catch him on shows like "This is Not Happening", "Conan", and "The Roast of Ric Flair". Dan joins me to Highlight the Lowlights of grappling with sobriety, recounting his recent relapse, the role alcohol has played through his family, and the loss of his mother. From performing comedy at a detox center to becoming a patient himself, Dan describes his experience with rehab this time around. He candidly shares a moment when his father's alcohol-induced illness led him to believe Tina Fey was pursuing him. Delving further into his emotions, Dan opens up about the guilt he's wrestled with since his mother's passing.

I’m 28 and live in an assisted living facility, been here since I was 24, it’s a nightmare. I’m severely disabled so I’ll never leave. Being in your 20’s in a skilled nursing facility surrounded by 60-80+ aged people is extremely difficult and depressing. At least I have the honeydew, it helps.
You got this brotha 💪 👊
Give up
Long shot but if you’re in the tristate MN IA WI I’d come and visit ya dude! My girl works in facilities and says dudes like you are the hardest things to see, she always lets guys know I’m happy to come in and visit!
Brother, I’m sorry. My dad threatened to put me in one after I got paralyzed. Thank God, I was able to recover enough to find a way out. I’ll be praying for you man. What disability do you have?
Hey man,you can message any of us through UA-cam. Don't think you're alone. I'm sorry you have to deal with this. At least you can say hi to us whenever you want.
This was _without question_ the most open & honest I've ever heard any comedian allow himself to be on a podcast. Hang in there Dan, we all struggle brother
🕉⚡️🍄☯️☮️
I know what Dan feels like. I lost my dad 8 years ago, and now it still hurts
5 years ago for me. I think about him when I need some advice about life shit. Which is almost daily. It sucks still.
Sincerely hope DSG finds peace. I can feel the struggle not only w alcohol, but also w his mom’s passing. My mom suffered from Pick’s disease. She was diagnosed at 52 and was in a nursing home for years. Things, of course, happen. I don’t know the details of his circumstances, but the pain he’s exhibiting is very, very familiar. “From the dark side of the street to the bright side of the road”…hang in there, Dan.
Fair play to him for being so open
You consider that being open compared to all the other guests who were really open? This was a shit guest 🤷🏽♂️
@@christiansolorzano9544thanks for your constructive criticism Christian
@@christiansolorzano9544WHy because he couldn't discuss certain personal things. You sound like a shit head
@christiansolorzano9544 I thought he was pretty good overall, and I like DSG on other shows, but something was up here. He just couldn't stop talking over Sickler every time he interjected, and he barely interrupted the entire show.
Literally every time-- trying to finish his own statement, thinking he'd finish what Ryan was saying, whatever. What an annoying oaf
@@DatPixon guy clearly been threw a lot..think he deserves a pass on this one..probably shouldn't have done this one til it wasn't so fresh and painful for him..but hey he trying to promote that special..dance fatty dance
Wow Dan, you did so good honestly. Im sorry you suffered so much. My mom died from a combination of alcoholism and rectal cancer (in my mind caused by the alcoholism, but there's no way to prove that) in 2021 at 53 years old. You were such a better son than I was a daughter. My deepest condolences to you, I know nothing can ever make it ok. But I hope that you will heal with time. I have been exactly where you have been and it is ugly. But you did the best you could do with the circumstances you were given. You're doing so great. ❤
This podcast is a lot of fun most of the time. It can have tough moments, but Ryan still keeps it jovial. Occasionally we get someone with serious heartache and an extremely difficult past, like this one. It's still just as important for us to hear episodes like this. We laugh and cry together on this podcast.
Damn I respect this man’s honesty.
Once the lawsuit is over, I’d love to hear the whole story with out all the can’t say.
Same, it's pretty obvious there's some sort of lawsuit (wrongful death?) going on
Ryan should have millions of Subs!!!!
Yo sickle cell, you’re always saying thank you to us. You’re welcome, and thank you.
dan i cant go into detail St. Germain lol still a great pod props for being so open
As someone who has a bipolar alcoholic dad who has gone to many rehabs in my short life and has always relapsed, this really hit home. I wish you the best in your sobriety Dan and we all appreciate you sharing such deep stuff. This also scared me a little thinking what road my dad can go down, but I can only help so much. Once you deal with something for so long you start feeling pretty helpless to the situation. As they say you can’t make someone be sober they have to want to themselves. My dad is kinda sober as of late but it’s his birthday today so we will see if that holds up😂 Thanks Dan for making me not feel alone in the struggles
Shoutout to Dan and Ryan!
One day at a time, brother!
Ps - rehab food is great! Not having to cook and do dishes was a cherry on top
I've been to rehab myself. I always thought the food tasted so good bcuz it was the first time in awhile I'd really tasted/enjoyed food & could remember it 😂😂
“Well I have the urn” 😂😂😂
There's a lot he's saying here that makes me worry for him. He stated blatantly that he's in a cycle of relapse, detox/rehab, then throwing himself into work, and now he's six months sober or so and he's throwing himself back into the spotlight and show business? It doesn't bode well. I hope I'm wrong, but maybe if that hasn't worked in the past maybe the call is to step away and just focus on sobriety until your foundation is a bit more firm.
History channel repeats itself
My dad always says rehab was the best vacation he ever went on because he could get a steak dinner every day and they’d even give you 2 dinners if you wanted more 😂
Sure if you go to the super expensive ones not accessible to normal people. It is far from second and third servings of steak 😂
'Preciate his honesty and sense of humor ❤❤❤
This is heavy. Really good ep. Hope Dan continues to do good
Love how he talks about working with soder, saw Dan st. germain feature for him when I went to see soder in Indy and the show was excellent
Ryan and his team - I hope you are reading this. Please have on Rene Vaca. His did is doing 40
Years in California prison but Rene is best Hispanic comic I know.
Don't stop fighting Dan...Please
Rick gobbled me
When you learn a monotub, you take an 1/8th a day 😂😂😂
James Brown was 6'7" My grandmother turned his sheets
James Brown was 6’3”
Are you crazy? James brown was 5’6”
on his mom’s shoulders
@@therealshagsterNo, he’s not crazy-just has a sense of humor.
@@therealshagster”i’m not gonna tolerate this disrespect!”
Only in A Man’s World.
happy tuesdee y’all.
Dude! LOVE YOU!
ecer aince your Soder-cast, been ruminating and a pondering what this show was you were chatting bout, ye?!?!
STONE COLD LAW!!!
sounds fucking sahweet!
awh dude! lets go!
Coming from a recovering alcoholic, no bs or sugar coat, if he's not careful he will end up like his mom or worse. I hope he gets the help he needs. Addiction is horrific.
Love ya Ryan 💗
As addict I was told to start with a plant 🪴 not a house full of dogs lol. 13 years clean I fight forward never looking in the rear view for old sad stories it took time to find discipline chances are like opportunity. They are very rare and hard to come by.
I'm glad you're doing good now dan! I used to buy 100 1mg Xanax every month. You tell the truth about the withdrawals. I took my last Xanax in December. No rehab 😁
Love you Ryan Sicklee!!!!❤❤❤
He's not done, blowing smoke
You should call this episode "I can't really talk about that". Hopefully talking about this will help Dan heal, I have a similar situation with my mom, and I'm definitely not looking forward to when the death situation happens. Part of me hopes she makes it to 100+ so I don't have to deal with it.
DSG is the fucking man. Great stuff
❤❤❤❤
Hey Dan or anyone else vaping makes anxiety kinda worse from what I hear. Hope it helps
Damn, I love Dan.
And all my homies love Ryan Sickler.
Actually you will do a bunch of insane stuff on Xanax n hear wild storys
Haha yes you will Xanax among other benzos are gnarly
i was going to say ive seen people get pretty nasty on xans 😂
Dude all f'ed just saying 😂
Let’s kiss, baby.
Need more context of Dan's tapering down off xanax. He said he was eating 6-7 a day. Doesn't specify 1mg(blues) or 1/2mg(peaches.) And it's not clear how long of a stretch he was eating 6-7 a day. But Dan says when he went to rehab they put him on klonz to taper down, and he said it was a week. Klonz would be a lateral move, if taking same mg. And what happened after the one week? There's no way your body adjusts and is fine after one week of tapering. And tapering to what? Zero? Or just like 1 a day?
My central nervous system is fucked from being prescribed xanax for 12 yrs, and then having dr up and quit his practice with no referrals or any colleague set-up to hand his patients off to.
No offense seems like normal addiction behavior. I think you need someone to be really honest with you and I hope you find that because addiction sucks. Hope you all the best
NBC better make that damn show
hahahaha this is just. so. fucking. bleak... just...
love you Dan. love you Ryan.
love you all
hahahaha
... ha?
ha
ha?
How many times does he say he "can't go into ______" on this episode?
42,069 times
Ummm you know, I can’t really go into details.
that's some hard stuff
What episode is this
Sorry..I can't talk about it
🥇
Honestly, id yell "Come to OKC" but then id probably forget to see you. bUT they say something about pavement and good intentions, idk Adelle or somethings, so Its the meaning that counts 😊 and if you came to okc Id mean to see you!! For sure! And id get you dad w**d too, all us would!
Dan “no details on the death” St Germain
Benzos like Zanax are the worst for addiction and then trying to get off them again.
Epitamy of keep chugging and plugging man. And not like mindless and go numb not thinking about all this stuff. Just not letting it hold you down or define you 🫡
Don't oversauce the wings
I hope Dan gets the help he needs. What if he succeeds when he’s drunk? I know of someone that it happened to.
Hung himself while drunk
YANNOO YANNOOO YANNOOO
This man had obviously mever took fucking xans if he thinks weed will get you higher
That was fucking depressing. lol
You can die if you cold turkey Xanax. If you're lucky you just have seizures. At least Dan never started mixing Dramamine with the Xanax. DO NOT DO THAT..
Poor dog, no excuse!
Didnt ask him what advice he would give his 16 year old self
idk about getting way higher on weed than on xanax
Oh fuck yeah. Dan is my nigga, miss his old pod with Sean Donnelly, My Dumb Friends. He’s such a tortured soul yet he’s so funny and seems like a genuinely nice person. Wish nothing but the best for him
No Zanex. For dogs. ? To soon.
Bro I was literally wondering not long ago where dsg has ben
Not to knock on Dan but if you smoke yourself bored, your doing too much. I'm a heavy smoker but that never lead me to drinking. Drinking, got me drinking nothing else. I hope everyone is able to over come your obstacles. 3years 26days off alcohol. 🙏🏾
Yeah really, what are they going to talk about?
Compares addiction to having Covid? I had Covid twice and it was like a mild cold, I didn’t even take time off work.
You were just lucky then.
It's almost as if illnesses affect people differently, that's so crazy
@@sillyslambo8527 yeah weird, it only really affected the old and obese just like most other illnesses. It’s almost as if it wasn’t really a pandemic at all and the government and media blew it way out of proportion and locked the country down for a year for no reason ruining the economy, weird.

Mr thousand stories I can’t get into. Don’t mention it if you can’t talk about it
Then don’t bring it up if you can’t go into detail or ppl can’t defend themselves. Tf
As an alcoholic, I can agree with some of this. As far as alcohol goes.... yeah, it sucks but for most of us, it won't kill ya
It will eventually, excuses make it worse too
I love drinking myself, & have been addicted but it's pretty harmful. For sure a pack a day will kill you quicker but booze isn't too far behind & it's an ugly way to go. I say this only because I don't think we should have delusions about this. People who drink & live a *long* life have almost always landed on some type of moderation.
Good God never ever bring this guy back on your podcast. This is one of the worst guests ever he can’t talk about anything. I feel bad for him for what happened, but Jesus Christ don’t go on a podcast if you can’t talk about anything.
Did you see him on We Must Be Drunk? Wild episode. They were hammering his favorite whiskey right in front of him
Awful episode jfc.....
Don’t come on with a story about your trauma or past then you say well I can’t say … then Get off the pod
Damn people like you are the worst. Mans obviously in some sort of legal situation about his moms passing. Just poured his heart out about his struggles and you focus on that you obviously have never been through shit if that’s what you take away from this. Go get some sunshine seek some happy days
Recreational and medical cannabis never closed during the pandemic in Massachusetts. Don't act like your backwoods tincture was your only way.
this guy cant talk about nothin...
This dude needs help.
