Skating Through Shadows: Brady Leavold and Adam Scorgie's Road to Recovery

I just want to get back, and every time I get back to Muskoka...there's so many ways that that should have failed. Okay, let's use that as a catapult to show that we can deliver, that we can overcome the huge investment, the setbacks, how to clear it, how to get it legal and all that kind of stuff.
What happens when the worlds of professional hockey and documentary filmmaking collide? In this compelling episode of 'Hockey 2 Hell and Back', Brady Leavold sits down with his friend and renowned filmmaker Adam Scorgie. Brady's journey from almost making it to the NHL to battling addiction and homelessness sets the stage for an honest conversation about recovery, resilience, and the power of community support.
Adam Scorgie, known for his gripping documentaries like 'The Union: The Business Behind Getting High' and 'Inmate #1: The Rise of Danny Trejo', brings a unique perspective to the table. Currently, he's working on a much-anticipated documentary about Jordin Tootoo, another hockey player with a story worth telling. Through their discussion, Brady and Adam explore the deep connections between trauma, addiction, and the culture of hockey.
The episode isn't just about recounting past struggles; it's a testament to the strength found in sharing one's story. Both men open up about their personal battles with addiction and the ongoing fight to stay sober. They emphasize how vital community support is in this journey. Adam's insights into filmmaking provide a broader view of how stories of addiction can reach and impact others.
As they wrap up, there's a heartfelt call to action to support Puck Support, an organization dedicated to helping families affected by addiction. This episode offers a raw, unfiltered look at the realities of addiction and recovery, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by these issues or simply looking for a dose of inspiration.
