Over 32 years sober and yes it does help the aging process.....
Yeah they don't call it a party-face for nothing. It ages you.
Zero days but it's on my mind.
Nice dude.
Someone who once met Rob Lowe told me his charisma is literally indescribable. He said it hits you like a physical force. He's not gay, but says he still felt a kind of animal attraction he'd never experienced before, and which he said doesn't really translate across the screen.
Loin Chop I don't think he enjoyed rehab but he enjoyed the process of being real and talking about his issues. like he said, he was ready when he went in and desired to work on himself.
@@marianniezayas1531
This is pure bullshit. After the bedroom videos, his career was on the downslide. Going to rehab got him press and public attention. Are we supposed to actually believe being a wealthy, famous superstar drove him to depression and drink? Get real. He is one of the most egotistical people on the planet.
William Overly what seems more egotistical is assuming you know more about the origins of a stranger’s sobriety than he does.
NoJustice, I can believe that.
@@westmcgee9320
A stranger? Lowe goes on every talk show, makes sure we all know how good looking he is, tells you how talented he is, even once suggested he could be a better producer than the one on West Wing, He has been luckier than most people, wealthier than most people, certainly more famous than most people, so arrogant he videotaped his sexual predilections in his bedroom. Now we are to believe this "poor" victim of society was so depressed he resorted to alcohol and rehab, which got this slipping actor a lot of attention. More recently, he has become a self-ordained expert on college applications, a man who never, himself, went to college. As far as "assumptions," you apparently think it is alright to make assumptions about ME.
Such hypocrisy.
I don't know if anyone else caught it there at the end when he spoke out about food. It's clear he has an addictive mindset about it. That's the fascinating thing about addictions. I've never met anyone who just has one. And that includes myself. Giving up alcohol was the first thing and now after almost 20 years of sobriety I'm working on my food issues in a 12-step program.
I gave up alcohol over 8 years ago,,, flourishing OCD in several areas after that
Dont Why people give up Alcohol and food , you only live once
@@monkeyspoon8255 because for some of us, like me, there are major consequences.
Food addiction is a real struggle, especially with sugars and carbs.
Whack-a-mole.
How does this channel not have more subscribers? The interviews are always more insightful than most. Thankyou Sam Jones for knowing how to get people there.
Probably because he asks bullshit things like 'When did you get to know you?"
Well, it would help if the host talked LESS. Its so annoying to hear him constantly butting in and interruptin the interviewee.
@@sratus so smart you are...yes...
Jan Norris I think his style is more a filmed conversation rather than a planned interview with questions. Not everyone’s style as I’ve seen.
@@sratus only someone enveloped in their own self deceit, built on a foundation of ignorance and arrogance, would make such a comment.
Judgment usually comes from that which we fear and/or don't understand?
What's it for you?
Getting to know yourself...is one of the deepest endeavors a human can take. Most people think they know themselves, but mostly are blinded by their cognitive distortions, biases, conditioning, narratives, limiting beliefs...which they confuse for themselves.
Just admit it's way beyond your comprehension...rather than label it as a "bullshit" thing.
One of the single best things we can do for our kids is to get addictions under control. Like he said, he hasn’t missed a minute of their growing up years. Huge.
Wow I had no idea he's had 20+ years sober. No wonder he doesn't age
HE IS NOT. HE LOOKED DOWN AS SOON AS HE SAID THAT
Meanwhile I'm surprised he looks as young as he does after being an alcoholic
@@latrolettteeeeeee you cant honestly believe that. Haha its not fucking csi
@@sharoncohen318 He looks like one of the Nazis

Jon Asleson Did you know he made a sex tape with a 16 year old when he was 24 and has had a number of sexual harassment allegations made by former employees? I guess that must keep you young too.
I went to rehab at 26 too. I totally get where Rob is coming from. Makes so much sense. If you need it and have the opportunity pls go. Stay as long as you can. The more time you spend at the beginning the further ahead you are of people later. Even people in the rooms.
As someone who is 2.5 years sober this really resonated. He's so right. You have to be ready to stop, because you want to. Then it sticks.
RussT1983 continued sobriety. 😊🇨🇦
Congratulations! I know we're strangers, but I am proud of you
Have a drink like real man.

Alic4444 Nah. I’m not a Nazi but a lot of the Aryans were pretty handsome
Had the privilege to work in addiction for 3 years. I got to meet and help so many people. That statement "it will never work until you're ready" is the biggest take away from my time there. You have to ask for help in beating addiction, but it has to be a selfish, self-centered endeavor.
Papa Spaceflight
I managed to do it on my own (cocaine), but if you were to ask my friends or family members what my defining characteristic is, they’d *all* tell you stubbornness.
Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
how was he 51 in this interview??? THE HELL??? He IS going to live to 150.
Going into rehab and sticking with it save my brothers life. He has been sober almost 20 years now. He works as case manager for a rehab, and now owns his own house and he just bought his first new car. Here was a meth cook that went clean and now is way better off.
Amazing story. I'm 18 days sober and wanna be come an addiction counselor !
I have spent the last 34 years in my recovery and helping others to grow in their recovery. The process of recovery itself never gets old.
I agree Rob. One of the things I hate about addiction is that it is so clear to me that my parents can't fix it for me. I was just a kid when I first felt an "unholy attraction" to something and I knew it was beyond my parent's reach. Scary.
He is my hero, the way he lit up about pain, he is low-key Chris Traeger 🤣
"He hangs there, transfixed between pure rapture and anguish. Wondering if they might not actually be the same thing." - Lester Bangs
This is *literally* the best interview ever.
Anyone who says Rob Lowe hasn't aged did not live in the 80s... but yes he still looks good.
He looks FAB!!! And of course he cant look exactly like in 1985 .How weird would that be!???
@Do Nut Everyone else has moved on from that. Try to catch up!

People do try, hence all the hideous facelifts, etc. Every time I see someone who went the facelift route, I lose some of my respect for her/him (I’m thinking of you, Jane Fonda!).
@@maryrosekent8223 you are right . They are all striving for eternal youth but end up looking like clowns
I always think of ABOUT LAST NIGHT when I see him. Such a great actor
Im 35, been smoking weed everyday since 17. I am on day 3, and while today was fucking tough, it was easier then yesterday, and so much easier then day 1. I mean i cried like a baby on day 1 saying i cant do this. But yeah, i've had enough of drugs and i'm going all in on bettering myself. Going at it like an alchoolic, i can't have 1 toke otherwise im back at it. I think i'll make it.
Keep it up, hope you succeed
@@hstar2959 made it to 6 months on april 1st! 😄 thanks for kind words
Keep going, best wishes to you!
@@matthewlawton9241 no weed is not a problem, except for someone like me with an addictive personality who did nothing with his life while being high 24/7. Going on 8 months sober now, doing great! Peace.
@@TheBalls2thewalls way to go! Keep it up, it gets better - the self respect comes back, fear of living in the present leaves and reality perception gets better. It could be different for everyone though, but it gets better in having meaningful relationships for everyone! Keep Going!

Ps. Will he ever age??
I haven't really followed Rob since the early 80's.
I like hearing who he says he has become since those decades.
He really does seem like one of the good ones. Stable marriage, nice kids. Still hot in his 50s. I'm sure its not always perfect, but he seems mature enough to not blow up his life.

These interviews are great. And thank you for not adding ads to these clips! Just subscribed!
He so right. It only works if you're done and ready for major change.
Omg, he's too right. The midnight snacking is hard on the waistline. I had a friend who didn't even remember his deep night eating.
Rob Lowe is just a gorgeous man. Man, did he age well. So glad he got wise with his problems at an early age.
"Every decade you have to give something up"
There's an interesting idea if I ever heard one. Not sure if that's 100% accurate but with my limited knowledge there sure as hell is some truth behind that sentence.
I read his autobiography. A very good book by an interesting guy.
Almost 5 years sober here and I will say that Sober Celebrities are truly inspiring!
I’m currently checking into rehab at 23! And I could totally resonate when he said “I torn it up” Lol
I loved rehab too best time of my life still lifelong friends with a few people i met there over 12 years ago. Of course it helps to have memories of seaside oregon. That rehab was coed with women and guys, the best food, bonding with people, crying with people. Learning about addiction and ourselves.
I’d kill for that hair line.
He did
wasn't he in The Outsiders? he was good
He was also amazing in The West Wing
Yup he played sodapop
Yeah for like 30 seconds
Rob Lowe is a vampire. Im convinced. He never ages!
Good for him. Staying sober is tough
Thank you for sharing. Thank you.
Love these videos, keep it up!
I said uncle when I got cirrhosis diagnosed almost 8 years ago at age 47. Cannabis indisputably repaired my liver to normal function in 4 years.
I know 2 other people with 30 plus of sobriety, my cousins . They have made an amazing life.
Uncle. 😢❤
Great insight. Loved it
yo can tell Rob's been through threapy when he uses words like "seen and not objectified"... this vocab would mean nothing unless .. you know.. these words mean nothing untill you realize their significance (in some shape or form) another word is "validation" . we go thorugh life hopefully life will validate "our behavior, and dreams" etc
His comment about giving something up every decade 🤣 So true...I'm now vegan, sober and trying to go gluten free 🙈😄
He is great actor l love him
It's exactly like he says. Only when you're done does it work. Not for any other outside reason.
Your story is interesting as some one got sober my self at 26 now 30 yr latter I'm old
Still doing 12step work good works
This guy is super adorable and intelligent
Sober and diet and fatherhood. For Hollywood he’s a Top Man.
This most attractive man in Hollywood. Just from the longevity. Unreal.
Truth!
My pal told me pre sobriety he ran into his brother in law at a party and introduced himself. Ha. Whoa.
Love RL shoes!! What brand?
My Hero
It's 10:30pm. Going out for Ben and Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk. Screw rehab...I say no...no..no.
It’s so funny and true what he said about getting older and food. I’m off coffee. still in mourning.
Finally being sick and tired of being sick and tired is when the light bulb goes on.
I think he is a really good man.
I LOVE Rob Lowe. Credit his wife...
someone turned the camera on
Always liked Rob Lowe....
Getting deep here: I would add that society, AKA everyone, will have to come to the point of "Uncle." We need to face the fact that we are living within society's deep illusions. The primary illusion is that human beings are lacking and flawed. This illusion keeps us on the treadmill.
Human beings are lacking and flawed. This is why we work to improve our character and learn more. Life is about becoming better then you were yesterday
@@bluecollar8525 Human beings are not lacking and flawed. We are just distracted from the innate happiness of being. Society distracts us, then it blames us for the subsequent harm. We work to improve ourselves because society says we are lacking and flawed and must improve. Everything we do is for some form of happiness, and so life is about happiness.
did you guys watch "Tragedy vs Evil" by JP video on youtube? what does coming to "Uncle" mean,
@@MarcDufresneosorusrex IMO, saying Uncle means you totally stop what you have been doing with your life and ask, "What's going on? What have I been doing? Has it worked?" Peterson says that tragedy is a precondition for being. But he fails to see that his evidence is contextual. He should say, "Tragedy is a precondition for being.... _in this ignorant society up until now_." That leaves open the possibility that tragedy might not be a precondition for being on other wiser planets or on this planet in a hopefully wiser future.
@@worldwidehappiness .. xd ah makes sense now...
Yes aging has been kind to him..but he had a freakishly lucky start cuz he was....😍😍
Awwww.
Yeah yeah sobriety. Uh huh recovery, that's awesome. I want to know about his skincare routine and the hair products he uses
I tell myself I’m ganna be sober every sunday
I love the interviews and all but the name doesnt make sense.
Yes, people are more open off camera.
That doesnt apply when you are using a camera to shoot these though, they already know they're in an interview. They signed papers for said interview.
Damn he is one handsome man.
We have to talk about this bacon collar.
Aw have a heart. He's over 50
i still eat haagen daz at night. Now I feel bad.
This calls for some haagen-dazs.
In the 80s he was a very pretty boy ..almost too perfect and a bit boring...
now he looks absolutely WOW!!! He aged so damn well!!
I wish i could have the advantages these folks have when getting sober,
You got it and you still do, pal
Just PUT DOWN THE HAAGAN DAZS ROB!!
Wut
What did he go to rehab for?
Booze and blow.
I had no idea he was an alcoholic
Rob Lowe and Paul Rudd clearly belong to the same vampire coven.

What Rob Lowed about rehab
I wish i could not drink but it's the only thing that makes me happy and comfortable. I don't drink every day but when i go out i have to drink and i drink to where I'm drunk
Have you thought about getting help? I'm coming up on 20 years of sobriety. I went to AA the entire first year. What I learned there has sustained me all this time since.
@@katjames7601 nah I haven't been to AA I just can't see my mindstate stay the same once I leave AA
@@az1341 you don't have to know right now. I don't know where you live obviously but I also go to Refuge Recovery meetings. It's Buddhist inspired recovery. No 12-step affiliation. We do guided meditation for 10 minutes during the meeting and the rest of it is open sharing and really getting to know each other. It's absolutely amazing and it's the best part of the recovery I'm in right now! It's not for alcohol; it's for my food issues. Even though I've been sober for almost 20 years I still was not using food in a healthy manner. Now I get to do my own meditation practice plus be around other people who are like-minded and trying to be the healthiest people they can be. Maybe you can look up and see if there is a Refuge Recovery in your city? They have it all over the country. It's even in the city I used to live in.
Do you know anything about Buddhism? It is all about being non-violent, non harming and compassionate - towards yourself and others.
well here's a question that may be helpful for you: are there things that you used to do in your life that did bring you some level of joy or fulfillment, like certain activities, or even simply being out (or in) with friends, that you now regularly turn away from just for the act of drinking?
@@kevinw712 na the friends I have most of them I been rockin with since middle school and I'm 25 now

guy seems cool except for the fact he does commercials for gambling apps that are highly addictive for some people. Weird he chose to go that route while being so open about his spiritual change. Confusing. It would be cool if he donated all the money to some process addiction rehab for young adult degenerate gamblers.
There should be some sort of rehab to get help from starting sentences with "Dude!"
I think it's ok if you're from Texas or California. When Londoners do it, it sets my teeth on edge.

The fact that he helps adolescents makes me nervous. I’m glad he’s sober but....the young ones can help the young ones.
