Episode 10 - Every waking moment I had booze in me with Brandon Villarreal

Today on the show is another longtime friend of mine, Brandon Villarreal.  He's a guy I met while I was still too young to legally drink or buy my own smokes.  This is the guy who took me to my first strip club while I was still underage.  He's like an older brother to me in a lot of ways.  He was always down to get into trouble, and he was sometimes a bad influence, but you need friends like that and aside from drinking and raising hell, he's also the person who first encouraged me to apply for a job in radi0 - and that was a step that would set in motion the rest of my adult life and career.    

He and I are long overdue for catching up, and of course, that's part of why I wanted him to come on the show.  The other reason is that Brandon received a new liver a while back, and being a transplant survivor, he's got a new lease on life.  He's taken up drone photography as a hobby, he's out in nature taking hikes, road-tripping, and I get the feeling he's really enjoying his life.  Brandon went through a seminal event that qualitatively changed him.  I wanted to focus a lens on his life and story because it's remarkable and deserves to be heard.
