Season 3

Crumbs is a podcast about the things we settle for, and the bits of ourselves that make us who we are. In season three, Emmy takes you through her journey of addiction and recovery. It’s a story she’ll tell in twelve steps, from the first step, Honesty, to the twelfth, Service. And all the in between: the darkness of blackouts in the depths of addiction, the bright hope of change, the relapses, and the major life changes that come with true sobriety. Tune in to season 3 to find out what it felt like to travel from one to twelve.

 

Season 2

A show about the things we settle for and the bits of ourselves that make us who we are. Crumbs is an audio memoir exploring the intersection of family trauma, addiction, identity, and the pursuit of love. Through raw and honest conversations with her mother, Emmy Olea journeys to unpack her family’s storied past. Though a lot of it sounds straight out of a telenovela -- it’s all true. And it speaks to the questions we all have about who we are.

Dating is hard. It’s even harder when you’re a trans woman recovering from alcoholism whose mom was a coyote and your abuelita ran drugs for the Tijuana cartel. Nonetheless, Emmy Olea is looking for true love and trying her best not to settle for Crumbs in the process.

In this bonus episode, Emmy sits down with John Hill to discuss his journey of recovery and how living a double life often reflects a refusal to acknowledge a problem with consumption. John also shares his coming-out story and reflects on how the opinions of others should not define our sense of self. Through this deep, heartfelt, and at times lighthearted conversation, we are all reminded that making meaningful changes in life requires a "one day at a time" approach to reach our goals.
