Heavy Substance Use, Heavy Depression, and Heavy Metal with Randy Blythe from Lamb of God

Lamb of God is a very popular heavy metal band with Grammy
nominations, gold records, and a huge headbanging following.
Randy Blythe, front man for the band and author of a new book,
Just Beyond the Light, is in recovery from drugs and alcohol and
tells stories of finding sobriety, including how it was pretty
easy to stay sober while on an Australian vacation surrounded by
koalas but a lot harder once he returned to the States and the
old patterns and routines of his life. Randy also talks about
surviving a panic attack and finding better health through acts
of service to others.
