DoubleVodkaDon Comes Back From Rehab, Still At Barstool

Recovery posts are never easy to put on the timeline, but DoubleVodkaDon went there anyway. The Barstool personality known to followers as Unbiased Ev dropped a porch-cam life update this week saying he checked into rehab, owned the negativity he'd been putting out, and thanked the people who didn't bail on him while he got right.

Life Update: Went to rehab to get treatment. Truly sorry for any negativity I caused. Thank you to my family/friends who stood by me. Grateful to still work at Barstool. Proud of the changes I’ve made. Thank you @Diamondrecov3ry DMs open for anyone struggling with mental health.

The headline for Barstool diehards: he's still on the payroll. That line — "Grateful to still work at Barstool" — is the one that's going to travel, because the company has a long, complicated history of how it handles personalities working through their stuff in public. Ev publicly tagged Diamond Recovery as the program that helped him, and left his DMs open for anyone else white-knuckling the same fight.

It didn't take long for the support to roll in from inside the building, either. Jersey Jerry — one of the most recognizable faces at Barstool and a guy who tends to keep his public reactions short and sincere — jumped in the replies with a cosign.

@DoubleVodkaDon @KayceSmith @Diamondrecov3ry Proud of ya buddy. You didn’t right thing. Can’t wait to see what’s next for ya!

That's the whole point of a post like this. You put it out there, the people who've been rooting for you show up, and the comeback arc officially starts. Proud of him. Pulling for whatever comes next.
