Going through a stack of DVDs I've accumulated in the course of a decade which I haven't watched. I just finished the pilot episode of "The Cleaner. imdb.com/title/tt110397…
"A guy transforms his life by taking control over his addictions and using his story to help others."

Recently, I listened to "The Cruel, Voyeuristic Quackery of Rehab TV Shows," an episode of @citationspod featuring @WideAsleepNima @adamjohnsonnyc with guest @maiasz

I also read & wrote a blog entry about Dr. Maia Szalavitz's book "Unbroken Brain: A Revolutionary New Way of Understanding Addiction." I focused on how my understanding of addiction had been warped by TV & films muslimmediareview.blogspot.com/2020/09/recomm…
The TV series is based on the life of Warren Boyd, who is a co-executive producer on the A&E TV show en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Bo…

Although I don't think the show is in the same category as the films @citationspod @WideAsleepNima @adamjohnsonNYC discussed in Ep 96 where they discussed "faith" films, elements from the pilot episode reminded me of it & it is worth a listen soundcloud.com/citationsneede…
I think I acquired this DVD because I thought Benjamin Bratt as "The Cleaner" was some kind of assassin, like Jean Reno in "The Professional" imdb.com/title/tt011041…
