Derrick Kosinski & Scott Yager are joined by Nathaniel Blackburn.NATHANIEL BLACKBURN made his debut on Real World: Seattle and went on to do two seasons of The Challenge. With MTV really being at it's peak of popularity back then he is one of the more recognizable names and faces of the era. Now going by his full name Nathaniel (he mainly went by Nate/Nathan back then) he has had a lot of life ups and downs since appearing on our screens. He shares all of it with us, getting very personal and candid about addiction and his path to recovery over the years. This interview does contain some talk about different forms of abuse and addiction so please proceed with caution. There are mentions sexual assault, not in great detail but it does come up.Although Video is usually a Maniac-Level perk (for Maniac level and above) we think this interview is important for everyone (who wants to) to take in and experience, so it is available to ALL Patrons.YOU CAN WATCH IT HERE: https://www.patreon.com/posts/video-nathaniel-132197747www.ChallengeManiacs.comwww.ChallengeMania.Livewww.ChallengeMania.Shop
