- During the last few seasons of 'Roseanne' John Goodman felt he needed to get his family away from the media circus that is Los Angeles, but he still had some work to do on himself in order to live a healthier life.

I love Goodman’s honesty and ability to laugh at himself.
Honesty? Hes a wanker
Too bad he's a coward
What do you guys have against John Goodman?
@RJ 1999 So what does that make you. A gossip, a snitch, or just a hypocrite. Check any that apply...
I am 5.5 years sober and have a 2 year old daughter. What a blessing she is to me.
Yup, one day at a time. I've been sober for about 9+ years, after 37 years of drinking. I'm going to try to not drink today. I'll worry about tomorrow tomorrow.
Congratulations ✊🏻
Best answer whether you are in a group or not. I stopped drinking in March of 2021. Feels great without it. But meetings left me very depressed. No offense
I'm only 5 days out. Hope your still doing well
@@act4666 oh I couldn't agree more it's very true when I done meeting people were talking about beating there wives and stuff and I was blown away
Congrats, proud of you!
Always admired John Goodman, great actor. Glad he got healthy.
3 minutes of pure gold. Condensed so much in this segment. Brilliant.
So many lessons you can pick up from this short.
I’m no AA guy but I’m glad it helped John sober. I quit in March 2021 and it was the right thing and it really is one day at a time.
14 month's here. I said I would not drink for a year. I think at 63 life is and will be far better alcohol free. @@act4666
Respect to John for being honest and open. This kind of feels more like a therapy session than an interview. I'm glad he's lost weight and is getting help. Hopefully others that are struggling with alcohol can get some guidance from him.
I love John as a human being and actor but I do not support AA’s mission statement
@@actownsend7288 Yeah, I disagree with their religious/christian angle. It's like exchanging one bad addiction for another.
@@TheTruthKiwi And I’ve seen some with years sober sit on a high horse throne acting like they’re the shit.
@@actownsend7288 Yes,alkies who go through AA almost always join the God Squad too permanently and become insuffrable self-righteous bores.
I’m coming up on 8 years sober on June 10th 😎
I wouldn’t trade the sober life for anything
One day at a time. My last drink was on Aug 27th, 1977. 44 years comin' up.
Congratulations!
Our oldest daughter will be 8 months sober on June 10th. Her sweet little girls and the rest of her family are so very thankful! One day at a time!
Congrats brother!
How about trade it for an ice cold long neck?
Well done sir 👌
John seems like a solid good man. It’s hard to get sober much less do it in the entertainment industry. Good for him for making the decisions he has for himself and his family. Much respect ✊🏻
I was sober yesterday and today. There is never a guarantee about tomorrow. It will be 3 years for me this July 15 but again, there is no guarantee. Anything can and will happen. Be grateful but never ever assume you'll always be sober.
Looking to make a comment yours caught my eye. Your sober date is my bday. Keep fighting the good fight.
Congratulations on your success, go celebrate with a drink, you can handle just one.
@@ItsSillyBillE I think you meant this as funny
John Goodman is one of my favourite celebrities. Seems like such a great guy!
"Roseanne" was not the only thing John did!!! John is known for SO MUCH MORE!! What a fantastic actor!! I loved seeing him in everything he did!! But this video shows the very "human" side of him. What a wonderful gentleman!!

“Wallowing in guilt.” I had never considered this - great insight, very helpful.
I wonder how many of us do this? Never thought about being able to choose the thought process.
It's also a way of avoiding the hard work: "If I beat myself up and feel bad then that's enough and I don't have to _try_ to change...and to get through this bad patch I need "
Guilt is a sneaky f*cker.
Sometimes it just becomes natural... Guilt can be just as bad as expectations/resentments
I know John Goodman just saved thousands of lives. Good interview TOCS
YOURE DOING AN AWESOME JOB! It's really motivating and humbling to hear these stories, especially from people that i grew up idolizing and really just untouchable and infallable. I'm in recovery too and these interviews are so important!
One statement of self-aware honesty after the other. Kudos to you, John Goodman.
I really appreciate John's transparency and honesty.
Tomorrow is guaranteed to nobody, including me. Today I choose not to drink. Thank you John.
John Goodman is one of my favorite people and entertainers on this planet, such a great guy. 👍🏼
John Goodman is an amazing actor and a genuine person.
"I wasn't battling that hard at the time..."
John looks a lot healthier after losing all that weight, good for him
Hey John, lets you, me and every other recovering alcoholic take another 24. Give thanks to this day and ask for the strength to stay sober tomorrow, that’s all we can do.
All carnies indeed. Wise insight.
If only they’d all come to that realization, instead of convincing themselves they should be our social conscience.
@@kato64 exactly.. they are not the ones who gonna save the world.. they are the ones who makes us laugh or cry or think about stuff another the world and the reality..
This speaks to me in many ways 3 years sober my self one day at ay time
Best of wishes to you. I hope you are still going strong.
If you fall off a horse, dust yourself off and get back on. You can do it.
We should celebrate and raise a glass of water ...... Keep up the good work
Great job Nick!
John is depressive....he can relate to a lot of people including myself...he’s a genuine person
John Goodman⚘a gem💎
John is a real man, for sure. He’s handsome, talented, charming and strong. It’s nice to hear him talk about this. God bless him. 😊😊
I'm almost a month sober but I have my days were the enemy tells me I'm no good and then its hard. at times its one minute at a time. Fight for the minutes and you will win the hour, fight for the hour and you will win the day.
Good for you!!! Congratulations and keep going... today, be sober.
Richard Burton explains it extraordinarily well...

Good for you brother!! You’re one month sober, and that’s amazing!
I’ve been trying to sober up for a year and failing everyday or two.
@@archiefoesucker1612 if I can do it you can. it took me a few times of trying. I think the trick is to not beat yourself up for tripping up. forgive yourself and continue with kicking this diseases ass. The best part is laying your head on the pillow at night and knowing you won the day. Praying for you and all who have this to deal with. Speak kindly to yourself. its working for me.
The first few months were the hardest for me. Keep at it. It gets easier.
Good one him, really a big fan of John Goodman. I'm 39 this year, so i really watched alot of him growing up, he's always been really great as an actor, and hes a sweet guy. Good to hear he changed his drinking habits, and as a fan, this is news to me that he had such a problem, so well done Mr Goodman!
I wanna drink a barrel right now. I could drink until I'm swimming in my own pee. I wanna drink.....a drink that goes gulp gulp gulp gulp forever.....2yrs sober tho
It aint as good as u remember it trust me...i don't drink for kidney issues...i can't pee the day after so injust dont but my brother is an alcoholic...congrats on sobreity man
why tho lol, go gym instead
@@Grumbledookvid because I'm an alcoholic, thats why. I can work out and get shitfaced at the same time. I used to do it all the time......smoking weed, snort yeyo, do reps, wet tongue , repeat
@@Grumbledookvid I was even addicted to working out lol
Everyone has an addiction ...known or secret
This is why you're a "recovering alcoholic" and not a "recovered alcoholic".
Source: I'm a recovering alcoholic
All power to you
You do 12 step and AA???
@@act4666 No...we don't seem to have it here in the UK. Just coronavirus and positive thinking!
@@paulbate9209 What’s wrong with positive thinking??
@@act4666 no, I didn't. My wife and kids are all I needed. And a shitty brother-in-law who was basically me if I kept drinking.
That's not a dig against the 12 step program.
living Step 10 is my way of living my life and I have never been at peace for so long. the program works if you work it and the "program" in my opinion, is the Steps pure and simple.
I've always loved John Goodman as an actor
My man. Being real.
He’s a great interviewer. Very underrated
I had no idea John Goodman was an alcoholic. I respect him for owning it and staying sober. I like his work, too. Thank you for sharing, Mr. Goodman.
I have always liked John Goodman. Now I know that he is a real 'mensch'. Like you even more Mr. G.
I've always felt John Goodman is underrated as hell. I love the guy and wish him a healthier life and much more success!
He's probably one of our best living actors.
John Goodman reminds me so much of my own father. He never had a substance problem but had severe physical health issues from a young age that devastated his mental health. I wish he could have found such clarity in his life before he passed. You're a good man, Goodman. 👏
As a man in recovery and in the brotherhood myself (NA) it brings me motivation that even a man as John Goodman battles everyday with the disease of addiction and win. To me other substances were also a factor but I came to realize that my constant was alcohol. And I deeply relate with the wallowing in self pity and being depressive. Just for today.
Mad respect for this man. I met him once in LA...Just a super nice guy!
John Goodman has a pure heart
Amen, brother.
2 1/2 years sober for me on June 3rd, but really, just 24 hours. Thank you!
Hey John. So glad for you. You are exactly right... The old worn cliches are truly correct. Just keep them always in mind. Simple but always available. Just keep counting one day at a time.
Just hit 18 months, it truly is 1 day at a time
One day at a time Mr Goodman we all love you such an incredible marvellous actor he just gets better and better
Great interview.
A great actor. Stick around, buddy, we need you for a lot longer.
“I wasn’t battling it that hard at the time”. lol
My father was considered an AA guru by those in ‘the club’.
25+ years sober, a sponsor more than once, helped people who were truly down and out get back on their feet.
Presumably considered to have completed the vaunted 12-steps. But he never once talked to my brothers and I about how his drinking affected us. He never offered even the most simple of apologies to my mother, for his behaviour during their marriage (which ended primarily due to his drinking), which would have meant so much to her.
Yet he’d go to the ends of the Earth for his AA buddies. He died sober, but completely estranged from 2 of his 3 sons, and left my mother bitter and angry for the remainder of her life.
He was the quintessential alcoholic; made his family strangers, and strangers family. Hopefully Mr. Goodman does better by his family.
Well, that’s not what AA teaches. Im sorry to hear that happened to you. Good riddance
@@paulzenco6182 True. Sounds like he never made Step 8, which is the hardest.
Oh boo friggin hoo. I drank like an idiot for twenty years. I stopped. Its not that hard. There was no bullshit AA either. Most people give up with no help at all. And most people who go to AA relapse. Its a bad idea. A very bad idea
@@waynesteffen8459 oh spare me.
AFFECTED US not effected. Jesus
"one day at a time" the most important mindset to have, that I don't hear mentioned enough.
one of the greatest actors out there...
That’s as real as it gets
Respect to John Goodman thanks for the sitcom entertainment.
He didn't battle very hard against it.😅 He is such a good actor and you never hear anything bad about him. "Everybody's All-American" one of my fave movies of his. Stay strong John Goodman, one day at a time.
Just watched the entire hour interview and it is powerful. Hard to imagine someone so successful and recognized in his craft had to fight so many internal demons. Glad he's finally on the road to clean living and appreciating life. Interesting tidbit from the interview, he mentions he wanted to bail on his Roseanne contract toward the end of the series, was drinking on set, not showing up, etc. and apparently ABC told him they had no problem taking his house if he tried to break the contract. They let him finish it out by showing up to whatever episodes he wanted to, and he didn't even recall being present for the final episode where Dan was found "dead".
A great actor and authentically Good Man. Keep strong, John. Thank you for your kindness and entertainment.
He is a wonderful talent and a gift to all of us. God bless his recovery journey. Mine started 8/28/87.
That’s like 2 1/2 months after I was born. Whoa. That’s a lot of DAYS my friend ✌️rock on
I'm one week sober been really concentrating on how much less anxiety I have thinking how much better it is to not have that anxiety from being on and off alcohol
Love his work. I’d like to see him more, on screen.
The universe was showing off when John was made. I just adore him and his real attitude toward his life.
He’s awesome!!!!!!!!!!
God bless you!!!!
OMG, this is a dream come true!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE your channel, and I LOVE John Goodman :)) One of my absolute favourites. I had a tough day today, so this is the perfect way to end it :)
PlifDELUX Hope you have a better day tomorrow :)
@@beeman2075 Thank youuu :)
1:31 so true. When we're functioning and providing, we justify our drinking. John, you got a good philosophical grip on this. Getting better isn't about that we drink, it's about why.
John is from my hometown of L.A. (Lower Arnold, just outside of St Louis), and I totally “get” almost everything I see & read about him. In ‘98 I was working at Tower Records & Video in NOLA, and JG came in regularly to rent DVD’s and VHS tapes. He always brought food: Snacks, dinners, you never knew. We never charged him (he had a free complimentary account) and he was always a great hang, even if it was for only 20 seconds. Regardless of the smack a lot of people write about him, I can testify that in the flesh, John is an awesome dude and gives generously of his time to anyone who asks. We love you, John!
10 years last Dec, day at a time is so true. Love being sober and as long as keep that in mind I’ve got a chance. If your wired like me give it a go, it works people. Respect to all
Great to see him doing well. I, too, am a friend of Bill's. Completely changed my life.
What a great performance on the Big Lebowski!
You should watch righteous gemstones
John Goodman is probably one of the best people in Hollywood.
hes a gent. hes obvious, to anybody thats lived a real life, hes a mensch and hes good man. turns out its in the name. who knew
It's a VERY low bar. He's being diplomatic about why he left.
I always wanted him to play my dad, if for whatever reason there was a movie about my life. His spirit is so much like my dad’s.
I had NO IDEA whatsoever that Goodman is a recovering alcoholic. MORE POWER to him! I always liked him a LOT.
Amen John. Stay strong man!
That is such an awesome way of looking at it. All you have is this day.
I wasn’t battling that hard ... classic !
Great actor!
I was married and the Doctors said we could never have kids because of my wifes heart problems. 10 years after her surgery we went back to see if there was a chance. Being a high risk they monitored the pregnancy and i quit cold turkey because i wasn't going to be that dad drunk and passed out with my daughter in a shit diaper. After 3 nights of no sleep and soaked bedsheets I'm happy to say it's been 22 years sober and my daughter saved my life. We are so very close and she will be graduating from college next spring as a sign language interpreter. She wasn't supposed to be here yet God threw me a little miracle that i am forever grateful for.
Love that story! God bless your family!
Good for you, John
Good for "Dan" lol! I haven't had 1 drop since 2014, life is much better now.
Wonderful message thank you
I’ve always liked this guy !
God bless you John you look fantastic. Your brother in sobriety
That's exactly like my anxiety disorder. I have to take it one day at a time. It's a 24 hour a day job for me to do everything I can to manage my anxiety
Anxiety isn't a disease it's a emotion for the moment stop being a moron
Like most alcoholics, he didn't talk about it with those it affected. One reason I took control of my drinking is because I didn't want to turn out like my dad and impact my kids the way he did with us
Impact? FFS. You mean AFFECT. Jesus
@@zapkvr You're seriously going to come in here and correct something I wrote regarding MY childhood? Seriously? Dude, I have an editor I pay to correct my writing and as far as I can tell, it ain't you. Go away.
@@zapkvr You're looking at his methods like the jigsaw that is, but you're viewing it through a keyhole when you should be really "expanding".
Good for you! Thinking of your kids and changing the outcome… is amazingly wonderful. Hope it continued to be better and better! 😊
@proudmarinemomma827 thank you. Much better relationship with my kids than my dad and I have had. And he and I get along much better these days as well since he pretty much stopped drinking too.
Huge respect to this guy.
Always liked Mr Goodman. Great actor.
Seeing him and Penn take their health into account and get healthy makes me happy. These guys need to be around.
Iv always liked John Goodman.
I figured out that my years of drinking had build a set of memories of goodtime when I was getting high. To get out of it took years of being happy sober. Then I have years of memories based on real life. That is the trick. Get sober for years on end and you can find yourself again.
As a newly sober person however you quit remember the words One Day At A Time.
❤️ From Shrewsbury JG. Respecting Yourself is Real Power
He looks really good. Hope hes around to make some more great movies for a long time to come.
It’s on my bucket list to meet him. I know it won’t happen but one can only wish. I grew up in the show Roseanne and his other films. I’m not one to want to meet celebrities because I think they are people just like the rest of us. We just have different jobs. He’s just always seemed like a nice person who seems honest and an all around good person. I’m sad that Roseanne got booted from the show. They bounced humor off one another. I also liked Lecy Goranson and the rest of the cast. No one doing tons of plastic surgery but living their authentic selves. They still hit on popular topics. The original Roseanne show brought awareness to so many topics. My kids loved the show too.
I haven't had a drink for 36 years, guess im lucky having a drink never comes up, now chocolate thats another thing😂
JOHN IS A GOOD--MAN💞😇
good tip to call someone if the urge arises...or go for a walk, something....same works with dieting also.
As usual Sam Jones asks incredibly thoughtful, insightful questions and lets the guest answer them thoroughly. The Off Camera Show is a force bc of Sam
"For today. That's all I got."
huge fan of John Goodman. Real all the way
Congrats to everybody who is sober, who has decided not to drink alcohol anymore. I drink at weekends only, maybe half a glass of wine. My eldest brother was alcoholic and really out of control for most of his life. He died nearly 2 years ago (that's another story) but had been sober for the last 6 years. We were finally able to be 'family' again and my heart stopped sinking when he phoned. John looks great, I'm very happy for him.
Addiction affects so many. I have a family member that is addicted to drugs and it destroyed our family unit. I’m sorry for your loss. I’m the same way. I rarely drink and not much at all, when I do.
Great interviewer!
