Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took the podcast world by storm with a shocking confession—he used to snort cocaine off toilet seats. It’s an astonishing detail that really puts his perspective on the coronavirus pandemic into focus. During a recent chat with Theo Von, RFK Jr. reflected on how his past experiences shaped his willingness to face germs head-on and even prioritized his recovery meetings over fears of the virus.
With a recovery journey spanning 43 years, RFK Jr. candidly shared how he believed his addiction posed a greater threat to his life than any virus could. Those daily recovery meetings became his lifeline, particularly during the pandemic when many people were retreating into isolation. He recounted how his past has driven him to make unconventional choices that others might find frightening. If facing COVID was a dice roll for him, he’d gladly take the gamble while keeping his recovery intact.
His bold revelations remind us that everyone battles their own demons, and sometimes, those scars leave a unique mark on how we tackle life’s challenges. So, what do you think about Robert’s unfiltered honesty? Do we need more candor like this in public discussions?
