From Dapper Laughs to Sober Dan: Dan O'Reilly's Story

Dan O'Reilly, better known as Dapper Laughs, was one of the first social media stars to hit a million Facebook followers. He was also a man whose whole career, identity, and friendship circle ran on drinking and cocaine.

Then ITV cancelled his show. The tour pulled. His dad had a stroke weeks later and Dan had to make the call to turn off the machine. Days after that, his then-girlfriend told him she was pregnant.

He spent a year self-destructing. One night he called the Samaritans.

Dan went sober for six months last year. Then he picked up at Christmas and it got bad again, fast. Five months in this time, he's running a 35,000-strong Facebook group called Men and Their Emotions and a podcast called Menace to Sobriety.

He tells Dave why the lads' lad finally had to put the drink down for good.

If you're a man who thinks you don't have a problem, this one's for you.

With 2022 being a busy year, Daniel sold out his O2 stand-up show and released his British movie 'The Last Heist', which became the number one Amazon Crime Movie and is currently in the remits for a release on Netflix. @dappersinstagram (Instagram)@dapperlaughs (Twitter)Daniel O'Reilly (Facebook)@dapperlaughs (Tiktok)@menacetosobrietyuk (Podcast Instagram)https://www.youtube.com/@menacetosobrietypodcast (Podcast Youtube)@hyprr_films (Film Instagram)
