Mari Fong interviews musical guest Margaret Cho and Kandace Kuwahara of Infinite Love Rescue. Margaret Cho gives a no-holds-barred interview talking about opioid addiction (such as Vicodin, Oxycontin, Percocet, Heroin and more) and other addictions (alcohol, benzodiazepines like Xanax and Valium and more), being bed-ridden for a month while detoxing, sharing her solutions for how she survived and how she now lives a happy sober life with her beloved pets by her side. Margaret Cho recently dropped her new album “Lucky Gift” and will soon be on her comedy tour, “Choligarchy" starting in August, 2025. We also play a clip of her single,“Lucky Gift” at the end of our episode. Next, our featured expert is Kandace Kuwahara, owner of the nonprofit, Infinite Love Rescue. For over 20 years, Kandace has volunteered for rescue organizations, with her mission being to find forever homes for animals who have been abandoned. Her annual Furbaby Lovefest this October 5 is a free event, featuring low-cost animal services and fun activities like a furbaby costume contest. Kandace and I will be talking about how pets can support our mental health and why adopting a rescue is so worth it.Be brave, ask for help, and be persistent in finding the mental help that you need.THANK YOU for supporting our podcast on www.checkyourheadpodcast.com Every dollar is appreciated, every listener is appreciated.
