Exactly.. there's levels and you will reach a point you aren't trying to fit in with a bunch of losers!! Lol
In your city maybe .. new Orleans is the shit !! .. people think I'm from new York, but we are much nicer
You need to go a year of semen retention!!.. I did 7 ceremonies of ayahuasca.. I had over 30 close friends died on drugs ,or the streets!!. By the age of 30 I had lost more than 30 friends !!.. so ayahuasca saved me!!
Oh so the same podcast/interview he's already done 3000 times, we get it bro you got sober and you're enlightened.
sick
Always good to see him doing well but If you have seen one Brandon interview you have seen them all
Laughs about how bad it sounds saying he blew his anus out. Then proceeds to say its one of those magical things! 🤣 the ironic thing is Novak is truly the most inspirational person.
As someone who grew up in the same era as Novak, with similar friends and social circle (which led to similar addiction issues, and so on and so on…….) Novak seems genuine and real. And IF You know, You know.
I would like to have a conversation with Novak about addiction, and, if he thinks addiction NOW, is the same as it was then….
Or for NO other reason than to know for sure if he really is who he says he is.
I got a copy of dreamseller from the goodwill for a dollar, still haven't read it but I will
Im happy for Novak 💯. Steve-O might've said it perfectly that Novak might be too sober as in he takes it too seriously. I do understand different strokes for different folks but nevertheless i am very very happy and proud of him. I bet his mom is on cloud 9 with her new and improved son
I quit cold turkey methadone 250 mg of liquid every day..for a few years n i wasnt resay to quit and i stayed sick n sweaty n my bones hurt for months when i stoped it and i got put on suboxone and ive been off the bs n jus subs for 6 years probly now…definitely stopped when i noticed the h was changing like 6 or 7 maybe 10 years ago ….i knew it was something else…
I remembered alf…lpl
Absolutely no way this guy nuts during sex and goes to the bathroom later and jerks off…
What's with the huge fudd sounds in the back ground . At first I thought I was imagining it .
I remember watching Novak on Villa La Bam years ago. I didn't think he would make it much longer if he kept using. Look at Novak now. He looks absolutely AMAZING!!! I'm genuinely very happy for him!!
I’d like to open a sober house with you, I have a property already n my story is at least as worse as yours, maybe worse maybe not
Shit!
I grew up on Bones Brigade.
The last skate video I seen was Subzero (Philly) from 1994 ish.
I’m old 😂
don't do drugs kids
So tough
Addiction
51:59 great insightful FACTS!! 56:29 the "safe injection" style is one of the ONLY ways proven to work. Because they also have to do therapy, work, and advance in life help building the life up which in turn stops the addictions. Other countries have PROVEN that approach works and doesnt produce more addicts it in FACTS LOWER ADDICTION RATES dramatically.
24:24 Bradon is a great example for people who want to get sober, I grew up on Jackass and followed him. He will also actually SPEAK TO YOU PERSONALLY. Ive heard his story many times, But I've always wondered were those 3 socks at least pairs?!?
idk.. my parents bought my burial plot already too.. a while ago tho.. been clean 4 years now
With all due respect, Novak's story seems to have this "I could've been a big tv star but i chose heroin" path, but he was already addicted to heroin when he was 16 so I feel its somewhat fabrication to say that he was on this big quest for fame in the first place. I only ever knew of him as Bams random friend who sometimes was on Viva La Bam. He wasn't part of the Jackass crew. I have mad respect for this mans sobriety and ability to overcome his demons, but I cant help feel there is slight fabrication in the story.
Brandon is the absolute man! So good to see what he used to serve now serving him and saving others
Novak is the dude that will sale you a perk, then tell on you or steal it from you. Then help you look for it.
i love listening to brandon. i got sober from fentanyl in 2020 & seeing his content really helped me understand sobriety. i was really struggling with going to meetings & staying clean. listening to him talk really put it into perspective for me. thankful for this awareness i didn’t have before.
I don't buy the dea's total making batches of fentanyl cookies in the woods TOTAL BULLSHIT for the speedball effect people dont consume drugs like that well Billy's pills got that extra zing to it WTF! For knowing there not gonna arrest there way outta the problem they sure as hell dont have a fn clue about anything else
I remember watching Landspeed on Limewire back in the 90's
TALKED 2 NOVAK ON HERE GREAT GUY VERY INSPIRING🙏☮️♥️✝️ #yOunG 🪖🌴🕊️
Novak wasn't even a meaningful part of any of it
I love Brandon. im four years sober because of him, and i can't thank him enough..Would love to see him and Bam making content again
Oh god this dope head junkie
Danny Jones skateboard content should be a thing
@brandon novak ❤soo much love for you and all cky… inspiration ❤ skate or die
built from the depths. i went through heroin addiction as well and this message of not going through it but growing through it is the best way to articulate the journey to sobriety. thanks BJ fr.
Sounds like Heroin really did a lot for him, like for real
The part where he said Bam jizzed on his arm and he got a blowjob from a Samoan…suuuusss
You can tell that Danny has sucked a ton of cock in his day
40mins in… looking forward to seeing that project.
Frankly the best podcast you have done in a year.
Dunn would be stoked
I've heard Novak do this same interview prolly 14 times, always seems to have something to add. I wonder what Novak's really like, I still imagine him being the dude he was on radio bam.
That's bullshit Novak
China refused to make the binder's
And I can't prove it but call them globalist instead of Americans by birth only forced them too moved to south east Asia India then back to Mexico ect.
