W.B. Appendix 010: Don Corcoran & Phillip Griffin

In this episode Waste correspondent Phil Griffin had Don Corcoran over for a long conversation about addiction, pleasure, family, fundamentalism, and dying, among many other topics. Don has a progressive form of blood cancer and was leaving for a possible cure treatment just days after this recording, and yet he still made time to tell his story & talk.

For about 15 years Don lived a life modeled after Rimbaud & Kerouac, dodging police and consuming any substance he came in contact with. After 10 years of sobriety and a new life of faith, he finds himself facing his death every day. He's an amazing storyteller with a perspective worth considering. We extend many thanks to Don for his time.

Music in this episode features Grant Jones' "Newborn" and Bull Market's "Invested," per Don's request. Find them both on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you get ur tunes.
