That Sober Guy Podcast

Shane Ramer is the founder and host of That Sober Guy Podcast, a culture and performance platform examining what happens when high-performing men remove alcohol and reclaim clarity, focus, and leverage.

Since launching the show in 2014, Shane has reached millions of listeners across 100+ countries by challenging conventional narratives around masculinity, success, and sobriety. His work sits at the intersection of identity, discipline, and modern performance.

Shane works privately with executives, founders, athletes, and creatives who are no longer interested in numbing high performance with low-level coping tools. His approach reframes sobriety not as healing, but as optimization, removing friction so men can operate with precision in business, health, and leadership.

He is also the creator of the Sober Male Index, a performance-focused data project tracking how sobriety impacts focus, productivity, income, and social dynamics in men.

Shane is a husband of 20 years, a father of two, and lives his work through faith, fitness, and daily discipline.

SGR Ep165 - Dave Buckner Dec 29, 2017

Show notes

Former Papa Roach drummer Dave Buckner joins Sober Guy Radio to give a raw and never before heard account of what life was like before and after the band signed their first record deal which catapulted them into the worldwide spotlight. With success came the rockstar lifestyle that quickly progressed into a full blown addiction to alcohol and cocaine. During this time, Dave met and later married Mia Tyler, the daughter to legendary frontman Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. The couple eventually split, and Dave spiraled out of control. He was in and out of rehab and experienced multiple relapses. The battle between good and evil thickened, and Dave found himself hearing voices saying things like "This whole music thing is really getting in the way of your partying" and "you could probably do a lot more drugs if you didn't have to play these shows."

The chaos and madness continued, and Dave eventually left the band temporarily for another attempt at rehab, but soon after it was decided that Dave would not return to play drums for Papa Roach. This was devastating news, and only seemed to dive Dave into deeper depression, isolation, and addiction. One night after partying, Dave overdosed and nearly lost his life. All of these events together along with a deep desire to be a better father led Dave to reflect on his life and get serious about his recovery. Today, Dave lives a life free from substance abuse. He practices prayer, meditation, and recovery through Noah Levine's Refuge Recovery Program. His purpose is to be the light, and bring hope to the hopeless.

SGR Ep164 - Todd 'Zman' Zalkins Dec 22, 2017

Show notes

Todd 'Zman' Zalkins grew up during the Long Beach punk rock scene, where surfing and back yard parties were nothing but the norm. When Sublime first started playing shows, Todd was right there in the middle of it all, and as Sublimes success grew, Todd stayed close with the band, especially lead singer Bradley Knowell.

In 1996 After a show in Petaluma CA, the guys headed back to their hotel, and Todd was one of the last ones to see Bradley alive. Around 4 AM that morning, Bradley tried to call Todd, but Todd was passed out after a long night of partying and wouldn't wake up. The next morning, Todd got the heart wrenching news that his friend Bradley had died of a heroin overdose. Todd went on to battle his own demons and struggle with addiction. It wasn't until a near heart attack that he checked himself into a treatment facility after a 17 year run in prescription pills, cocaine and alcohol almost took his life.

Today, Todd is an interventionist and state certified Drug & Alcohol counselor (CADC). His story became the subject of the award-winning documentary film, "The Long Way Back" The Story of Todd 'Zman' Zalkins, which premiered at multiple film festivals. The film was picked up for worldwide distribution and is available for release on Amazon, iTunes and DVD.
