Listen Later

In this powerful episode, hosts Louis and Aaron sit down with Bryce Sparks, a man whose life could have been the script of a tragedy—but instead turned into a story of resilience, redemption, and hope.Bryce’s upbringing was anything but easy. From a young age, he carried pain and struggles that no child should have to endure. By the time most kids were thinking about prom or graduation, Bryce was already deep in the grip of heroin addiction. What started as a way to escape his circumstances quickly grew into a monster that controlled his every move. When the heroin would run out, Bryce swore he’d never touch fentanyl—but like so many caught in the cycle of addiction, desperation pushed him further than he ever thought he’d go.Drugs, crime, and broken trust consumed his life. The odds were stacked against him, and most would have bet he wouldn’t make it out alive.But Bryce proved them wrong. Against all odds, he didn’t just survive—he found a way to change. Through grit, resilience, and the willingness to fight for something better, Bryce got sober and discovered a new purpose. Today, he uses his story to give back, helping others who are still trapped in the same nightmare he once lived.This conversation is raw, unfiltered, and deeply inspiring—and it just might be one of the best interviews we’ve ever done. Bryce’s honesty about his tough childhood, his battle with heroin and fentanyl, and ultimately his fight to rebuild his life makes this episode unforgettable.This isn’t just a story of recovery—it’s living proof that no matter how dark someone’s past may be, there is always a way forward, and there is always hope for a new beginning.🔥 Expect emotion.
