Carl Radke | How Bravo Saved His Life!

#925. Carl Radke has lived much of his life in front of the world. After nearly a decade on Summer House, he opens up about the moment watching himself on TV forced him to confront his addiction — and why he believes Bravo ultimately saved his life.

He shares the grief of losing his brother to an overdose, how he’s now celebrating over five years of sobriety, and the unexpected impact of sharing his journey publicly — from a stranger stopping him outside the subway to say his story saved her life, to the surreal Chrissy Teigen and John Legend Sundance story that proves you never know who’s watching.

Carl also talks about writing his memoir Cake Eater, relearning how to socialize without alcohol, dating while sober, and how his priorities have completely changed — plus a few teases about the new season of Summer House.

Whether you know Carl from Summer House or simply connect with his honesty about addiction, grief, and growth, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss!
