On this episode of the Hockey Think Tank podcast, we keep the #BellLetsTalk movement circulating as we speak to Brandon French, former college hockey player that has dealt with mental health and addiction issues. Frenchy's alcoholism and drinking habits stemmed from his time playing college hockey all the way up until recently where he attended rehab to deal with his issues. In our conversation, we talk about the difficulties of asking for help, the roots of developing an alcohol problem through hockey, and the journey from rock bottom to sobriety. This episode is raw, real, and a courageous act by Frenchy to speak about his issues so openly...and maybe it can resonate with somebody going through some tough times today. We think this episode will change the life of a listener by making it known that it is strong to ask for help.
