Restoring Purpose: One Veteran’s Journey from Service to Sobriety Featuring Joe Yurick - Episode 220
In this episode, we sit down with Joe Yurick, U.S. Army Veteran and host of This Sober Vet Podcast. Joe served in the Air Defense Artillery, working with the PATRIOT Missile System and deploying during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. After years of self-medicating with alcohol and nearly losing everything, Joe made the life-changing decision to get sober — and has now been sober for over three years.
Today, he’s on a mission to normalize sobriety among Veterans who struggle with substance use and the hidden wounds of service. Through his podcast, This Sober Vet, Joe provides honest conversations, community, and hope for those ready to break free from self-medication and find purpose in recovery.
Tune in to hear Joe’s powerful story, his insights on the challenges Veterans face with addiction and recovery, and how he’s using his platform to help others live sober, strong, and connected.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
