What I liked
The sharp turn from breaking down in the dark to a well lit stage and a confession of needing to find more meetings was a personal highlight.

My overall impression
Hilarious, heartfelt, and humble, Gerry reminds me of a Norman Rockwell character, if that character happened to be a degenerate gambler with a traumatic childhood. He is a performer who shows up entirely as himself. He pulls from a deep well of life lessons learned the hard way, but his love for his family and fellow recovering humans is tangible and touching. Gerry frequently references the creative writing talents of his children in giving him material to use, but its through his lens of honest self-reflection and wry sense of humor that playful anecdotes are woven together into something closer to a love letter. A deeply human show, sure to touch anyone with a heart, a heartache, or a bad habit.
