  • It’s time to re-think everything you know about addiction – that’s the message Professor Dan Lubman from Turning Point Australia has for host Dilruk Jayasinha as they discuss everything from what physiologically drives addiction, to the different faces of addiction. Self confessed addict, comedian Dave ‘Hughsey’ Hughes, joins Dilruk to reflect on how an addictive personality impacted both his life and his career, and they look back at the hilarious yet sobering moments that led him to 30 years of sobriety and a determination to stay in control.
