Jason Wahler Gets Honest About Addiction, Recovery and Reality TV

Imagine being 17 years old, cheating on your girlfriend, getting wasted, fighting in public... now imagine doing that on Reality TV. Today's guest, Jason Wahler, did just that when he became one of the breakout stars on MTV's "Laguna Beach" and "The HIlls." We've watched him on his journey from badboy to recovering addict to now helping others.  It's been a long road of self discovery and hard work and now Jason is talking to us about it all!

Jason opens up about growing up on TV, his struggles with addiction and what led him down the road of recovery.  Rachel and Jason share stories from their time on season 4 of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, the laughs they had and the deep bonds they formed with their castmates.  Jason gets honest about his family, his passion for working in the addiction space and what he does to stay sober and happy.  Enjoy this intimate conversation between friends!
