Randy Blythe, lead singer of Lamb of God, joins Ryan to talk about the role ego plays as a successful frontman, conquering fears, and the intersections between Stoicism and heavy metal in his life.

In his new book, Just Beyond the Light, Randy shares his approach to life, talks about what he’s learned touring the world as the vocalist of a successful heavy metal band, and of the very real ways he is doing what he can to leave the world a better place.
