Dax explained that Eric confronted him for repeatedly pressing a timer and interrupting the meeting. He recalled the instance, “He goes, ‘If you hit that timer again, I’m gonna f–king throw you in that candle.’ And I go, ‘That’s it, motherf–ker. Stand up, let’s go outside.’ He stands up, we go outside and I’m about to beat the f–k out of him—at an AA meeting, where we’re coming for healing and understanding.”

When Eric previously appeared on the Armchair Expert podcast, he shared his side of the altercation. He said during the episode, “I was not in the best space, let’s just say that.”
