On today’s episode, Rich sits down with Brandon Novak – Professional Skateboarder, MTV celebrity, alumnus of the Jackass motion picture series, star of the CKY skateboard video series, and author of the best-selling memoir “Dreamseller.” Brandon gives back by helping people into treatment celebrating 9 years clean and nearly 6 years tobacco free. He relates to millions of people across the US; 1 in 4 to be exact, who are directly affected by addiction in their family. He travels the country as one of the most in-demand addiction keynote speakers, bringing awareness and education to high schools across the nation. Brandon has impacted hundreds of thousands of lives through his story of sobriety.
Rich and Brandon start off by discussing Mikey Taylor and Brandon Turner (the skateboarder), the synchronicity of life events and meeting Tony Hawk, Bucky Lasek and growing up in Baltimore, skateboarding and high intensity workouts, Brandon’s journey into the Jackass movies, Brandon’s worst injury on set, and Brandon share’s an anecdote of stealing a doctor’s script. They then reflect on Brandon’s drug usage, Rich’s journey through a Xanax addiction, Benzo addictions, prescribing drugs to children, and muscle memory.
Lastly, they talk about happiness in growth and progress, the covid pandemic, Brandon’s family history, the power of a smile, Brandon’s anecdote about an abandoned house, how the abnormal becomes the normal, their journey to sobriety, full circle moments, being the best version of ourselves, the confidence that sobriety creates, and realistic ways to become sober.
