My guest this week, Zak Shultz (Dear Mr. Peterson, My Red Hot Nightmare, Stairwell), is somebody who has followed his dreams with abandon. After a relationship break-up, a truck break-down and an unfortunate band dismissal - he found his calling as a firefighter. He has survived 7 bouts with Malaria and chronic spinal stenosis. But nothing prepared him for the loss of his "baby sister" and 2 uncles in the past few years. We talk about the impact of those events on his life and what it might all mean.
