Dealing with and overcoming depressive states without falling off. Accepting that some will always look at a person as a fuck up regardless of their current growth in life. Uncertainty of the future and the process of self discovery are all topics Unc covers in this episode. Oh and also the ghosts of past relationships come back to haunt our host and his ninja like boundary reflexes made against them.

Good friend and counselor from Unc's rehab facility comes on the podcast to share his days coming up in the hardcore punk zeitgeist, what his childhood was like growing up in Southern California and exactly how quickly his drug use flipped from the best of times to the absolute miserable pit of despair many of us come to terms with. We won't give too much away in this description because the stories in this episode get really dark. At the same time however toward the end of his tale our guest also details his experience with crawling out of a deeply rooted heroin addiction and facing some of life's most heart breaking challenges while keeping his sobriety intact. We can't throw our guests name out there we would like to plug his radio show "Your Life in America" which can be streamed on Soundcloud as well as his amazingly written blog https://yourlifeinamerica.com .

Nod Squad Ep. 64 - Stale Fairytales from Jail, Crusty Trustee Trojan Tyranny, Pretty Fly for a DUI, Cell Block Pod Pill Mill & Another Assault from the Vault

Unc finally celebrates 1 year of clean time and completely completing the 12 month rehab program he bestowed upon so many moons ago. Its been a long journey and to celebrate we dig deep into the vaults to dust off a recording almost 3 years old done with missing co-host Ryan. The two share jail stories, the arresting tales that got them there, the weird things that happen on the inside and briefly overview the program politics that inmates must abide by in order to keep the peace. Trigger warning, Unc details the amount of poop he had to clean up as a trustee, Ryan talks about his almost 21'st birthday DUI arrest; getting his mugshot with tear smeared party face paint and more on this blast from the past episode of Nod Squad.

Zoey aka the Porch Pirate from Ep. 4 comes back on with Unc to detail what's her life has been like in the past 17 months. When we last spoke with Zoey on air she was continuously getting kicked out of sober living houses up in the Central Coast and eventually made her way down to Santa Barbara to complete a 12 month inpatient program. Coincidentally many months later Unc had ventured to do the exact same thing. Zoey and Unc both reflect on what the experience was like getting clean and the challenges they faced while attempting to reform their rebellious nature. Zoey briefly talks about the trauma's of loosing sober living roommates to overdoses in the recent months, abusive ex bf's and the overall gossip and drama that goes down in an all female rehabilitation facility. It's an incredible miracle that both Unc & Zoey managed to crawl out of the depravity of their drug abuse and both find themselves behind the mic together and clean again after over a year since they got behind the Nod Squad mic and swapped war stories.

Nod Squad Ep. 62 - Podcast from a Car, Stabbing Stories, Heroin Barf Bags, Boxcutter Brutalities & Hep C Syringe Shanks

Unc does a solo recording from his car in the rain to get out of the house while still socially distancing to tell a few of his stabbing stories. Heavy war stories flow in this episode; ranging from drunk party knife disarmament, pre school pencil penetrations and passionately psychotic ex gf drug partners in crime. It's crazy to look back on these tales and realize the insanity a junkie romance can put two individuals through but hopefully you can look back and laugh like Unc does when narrating his self harm while in isolation.
