Commander ad Populum Ep 22 – Experience, Strength and Hope pt. 1

Welcome to another very special episode of Commander ad Populum. Commander for the people, by the people, for the people.

This week, CadPopCast is back with another interview-style community section. It was so long, it took up two episodes! This week is the first part of my sit down with Tony Del Prete, avid Legacy grinder. You can find him on Twitch, here. We discuss his struggles with addiction. We also look at how Magic and gaming has touched his life and his remarkable road towards recovery.

Tony’s recommendations for links and phone numbers if you, or someone you know struggles with addiction:

Narcotics Anonymous: https://na.org/
The Massachusetts Substance Use Helpline: https://helplinema.org/
American Society of Addition Medicine: https://www.asam.org/

Here is the link to Leaving a Legacy Podcast that Tony and I spoke of near the biggining of the interview: https://soundcloud.com/leavingalegacy/246-tony-scapone

If you’d like to give me your thoughts on today’s topics, hit me up on Twitter @CadPopCast. You can find me on Facebook, here. Both the Twitter and Facebook feeds have threads for each episode of Commander ad Populum. Let me know what you think.
