#279 Michael McCutcheon: Fighting Addiction

(Airdate: February 3, 2026) Maryanne interviews Michael McCutcheon, founder of Reach Out, a non-profit that helps feed those in need of food. Michael’s a recovering addict who wants to help others who have decided to free themselves from drugs. No one knows how difficult it is to end years of addiction than someone who is doing it himself. At times Michael works closely with law enforcement or city officials to find housing or medical assistance. He believes that there’s a fine line between compassion and enabling and he’s definitely against enabling. His volunteers take weekly truckloads of food to certain known locations, such as the bus station or skate park. He’s there — sharing his own story and offering help to those who actually listen.
