- Episode 153: Join Bryan Alzate on the latest episode of "Hell Has an Exit" as he sits down with Brandon Novak. From a prodigious start in skateboarding, where he was discovered by legends Tony Hawk and Bucky Lasek when he was just a teenager, to becoming the world's first skateboarder sponsored by Gatorade at the age of 14.
He soon toured the country on the Powell-Peralta team, landing endorsement deals with Gatorade, and even starring in commercials with Michael Jordan at the young age of 15. Beyond skateboarding professionally, Novak ventured into the world of movies and television, making memorable appearances in several of the Jackass movies, Viva la Bam, the CKY series, Bam's Unholy Union, and more.
But alongside his glittering career, Novak faced a deeply personal battle with addiction that threatened to overshadow his achievements. His struggles with substance abuse led him down a dark path, marked by rehab stints, brushes with the law, and moments of despair. Yet, against all odds, Novak found the strength to confront his demons and achieve sobriety in 2015.
Brandon is not only a survivor but also an advocate for others fighting similar battles. He authored the bestselling book, Dreamseller: An Addiction Memoir, where he candidly shares his journey through addiction and recovery, inspiring countless others along the way.
Recognizing the need for comprehensive addiction treatment, Novak has now established his own addiction treatment center, providing individuals with the support and resources they need to overcome addiction and reclaim their lives.
Brandon's tireless efforts battling the opioid epidemic earned recognition from the DEA's 360 Strategy Program. As a Certified Intervention Professional and motivational speaker, Novak extends support to those in need.

www.hellhasane...
Our host, Bryan Alzate, was addicted to crack and OxyContin at 14. Lost and suicidal, he found his exit from hell by getting clean at 17 and getting involved in a 12-step program.
Since then, Bryan has dedicated much of his life to helping other addicts find the Exit.
➡ On this show, Bryan interviews individuals who have fought similar battles- emotionally raw, vulnerable, and uncut.
The stories we share here are very emotional, and the trials these guests have faced could have easily killed them or made them permanent prisoners to their hell, but they found a way out of hell and started on a path towards redemption.

THANK YOU ❤
Brandon has been one of my personal heroes lately and him being living proof that you can change your life around if you really want to, for me it just came to a point where I couldn't be bothered with all the bullshit and negativity that comes with being an addict/alcoholic and I hit rock bottom and then starting to change from there, Brandon is such an inspiration for me in general!
Brandon’s story has helped me in some very dark times
You guys went into great detail about addiction. I appreciate all of it. I am a former Ivy user and relate to a lot of this.. I just hit 17 months clean and sober
Hell yeah congrats on 17 months, that’s huge. Proud of you brother
Brandon Novak is a huge inspiration to me because I struggled with heroin addiction for 21 years and I am just now getting sober at 37 years old. I’ve been a huge CKY fan growing up and to think Novak is where he’s at today gives me all the hope in the world. Everybody including Bam told Novak he would never amount to anything and here he is taking control of his life for the past 9 years.
Ive been binging your back catalog and it gives me a little bit of hope back for my sister who has been in active addiction for over 20 years. Keep doing what youre doing 🙌🏻
THIS IS ✋️ DWN THE BEST RECOVERY PODCAST EPISODE!!! IF U R A TRUE ADDICT IN RECOVERY OR NOT IN RECOVERY THIS BRINGS IT HOME! TRUTH TELLERS! ROCKSTARS!

This is awesome when at the end of my road I listened to Novak's story and from there it gave me hope and from there I found Ousmane, Jimmy T, Khalid, Richie C, etc ... And then I got clean went to the so cal convention and heard the main speaker Brian say that he tell in love with the program via speaker tapes....so that'd why this episode is so cool for me

Novak's a saint
Inspiring! You guys are awesome!
Great episode bro!
Big pod!!!
Great podcast dude !
Thanks for listening!
Why does this podcast always start “with your guest teddy terentino”….obviously I’m new
I love Brandon....................My question is why do some people get out of control and some don;t. I know many people including myself who can have fun and move on without it destroying their life etc. I know many who experimented with perks who are fine etc. What triggers the chaos or further addiction into heroine etc? I don't get why someone with an ounce of intelligence would say fuck no not going there etc.? I love B but don't get it. I'm happy for him and his family but was always curious of the difference of these 2 types of people? I can't relate?
🤮 listen to what you hear🤮🤮🤮
You know damn well he's honeslty snd been through way more than fkn you stfu
