RMA Episode 119: Recovery Boys-An RMA Back to School Special!
This week Mike and Nat do an in-depth review of the Netflix special Recovery Boys. Recovery Boys is a Netflix documentary directed by Elaine McMillion Sheldon.

The film primarily takes place at a farm-based rehab facility in West Virginia called Jacob’s Ladder.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step, (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.
