A few years ago I was a broke, university dropout, living in a studio-flat in a rough area. At 18 I started a company which would eventually become "Social Chain" - an industry leading marketing company. At 26 the company was generating $600m a year in revenue. At 27 I resigned as CEO, and launched 'The Diary Of A CEO' podcast with the simple mission of un-filtering success and giving you the knowledge you need to create the life you want.

E262: EX-JACKASS Star Steve-O: A SHOCKING Story Of 72-Hour Drugs Binges, Mocking Death & Craving Attention
After graduating from Clown College in 1997, and recording various death defying stunts on camera, Stephen became Steve-O, a member of the MTV series ‘Jackass’ in 1999. Since then, Jackass has become a cultural phenomenon with 3 TV series and 4 number one box office smash hit films. After battling addiction and becoming sober in 2008, Stephen has diversified his career, starting stand up comedy in 2013, creating the ‘Wild Ride! with Steve-O’ podcast in 2020, and writing 2 best selling memoirs.
In this conversation Stephen and Steven discuss topics, such as:
- Stephen’s ‘insane’ childhood
- His mother’s alcoholism and later illness
- Why he thought he would be dead before the age of 25
- His anger at the idea of death
- Feeling guilty for being successful
- Becoming sober and escaping addiction
- How heartbreak led Stephen to find stunts
- His constant need for attention and how it has driven his life
- Why Stephen feels as if he is defective
