How are people complaining about him being repetitive? A life story has 1 version...

He's doing what he can to keep the desire to fall off the wagon away. If repeating the same story and the same rhetoric will keep him sober, then don't complain, be happy for him. He only has one version of his story.

Brandon Novak is incredible. Not only long term recovery but his mission in life now is to save lives. He’s always brutally honest about the things he did to get high. He talks about selling his body, that’s courage.

So much knowledge and wisdom. Brandon understands this disease very well and how it operates in his life. I watch this video and i thought of my sponsor once saying " i know you because i am you" he was talking about our thinking process. Brandon explains this several times and breaks it down beautifully and simply. As far as people commenting on his story or his share is always the same. First of all. Its his story. He only has 1. Second. If it aint broke. Dont fix it. Thank you for sharing Brandon. KCB

I love his story and it's amazing that he is sober and still alive. I have listened to him speak numerous times and he has this same speech memorized word for word. He isn't a great motivational speaker at all but I enjoy hearing his story as it sounds like a robot is telling it.

@benzobc4l284 6 жыл бұрын

Brian Jones I disagree I believe he is a great motivational speaker. He went to hell and came back and is now clean. If that story isn't motivating then I don't know what is. Your life story can make you a great motivational by the fact you survived it.

@JessicaC. 4 жыл бұрын

Maybe God made it Destiny for you and Margera to meet as kids. You needed bam many times in your life when you were younger. You went through all of the things you went through so now you can understand and Bam can understand what it's like to be an addict. And now you are here and sober and you've learned all of these lessons to help bam! God puts people in our lives for certain reasons. I know that for a fact! A lot of people say the cure to addiction is Christianity. Like it's a bad thing? It's absolutely not! Jesus is the way my brother. You show me who you walk with and I will tell you who you are. Much love...

I wish i could really listen to him and get clean though.. 10 years of pills and 2 years of I.V. heroin and fentanyl is too long but im too pussy to bite the bullet and detox..help me Brandon help me god..maybe one day before it's too late i can do it. Ive had 3 over doses i dont know if I'll be lucky enough to have a 4th and come back....

@eriklarson4082 Жыл бұрын

I'm so happy for Novak with how far he has come in his recovery. Been a fan since Cky2k on VHS through Radio Bam and Jackass movies. The one thing that I find strange is that he says he was a millionaire 2 to 3 times over by the age of 23 and 24. Many of his friends including Bam and Joe Frantz have come out and said that he is not telling the truth about that. They also point out the fact that he technically was never a "professional" skater but rather only got to am or "amature" ranking. I'm not taking away anything from Novak but those little white lies are not good for anyone in recovery. I think he is in too deep to come out and admit any of that though. I still love Novak and want him to stay sober no matter what.
