Life In The Stocks

Usually, when we put out episodes that are longer than 90 minutes, we split them into two parts, but we've decided to keep this one whole so you can get swept up and lost in the conversation. It's a DEEP one this week. And things get a little intense at times. But then that's what we do here on Life In The Stocks, and we hope anyone that's previously struggled or currently struggling with depression or suicidal thoughts will take something positive and inspirational away from hearing Jake's story.Jake is one of Matt's dearest friends, and in the words of Hunter S. Thompson, is "one of God's own prototypes: too weird to live and too rare to die." This already ranks as an all-time favourite episode. There's tales from Warped Tour '97, the final days of CBGB, partying with Kid Rock, and Jake's mental breakdown, suicide attempt, and the long, hard, ultimately rewarding road to recovery. There is something for everyone in here.Be sure to buy yourself a protective mask from Jake's insane array of designs, too. They
