Ep.66 - Jeff

We all have to face certain battles in life and for Christian comedian, Jeff Allen drugs as well as alcohol was his worst enemy. Allen made a career out making others laugh while he was going through so much pain. Allen started his comedy career when he was 22. He has appeared on Showtime, Comedy Central, VH1, and more. Weekly drinking turned to binge drinking, and he often found himself getting drunk for a week and then staying sober for a week. Through his teens and 20s, he got trapped in a cycle of black-out binge drinking, snorting cocaine and raging against people. He has quit drinking and using drugs in 1987 after he found himself spanking his baby boy because he was crying. 
It was a open-hearted, full of humor and great man that I discussed with and enjoyed every minutes of our talk.
