Lonesome Soldier Advocates For Veteran Mental Health & Addiction Recovery With Alexander Randazzo

Knockin‘ Doorz Down

Join me Jason LaChance host of the Knockin' Doorz Down podcast, certified addiction recovery coach, and mental health advocate for my sit down with special guest Alexander Randazzo, the writer and star of Lonesome Soldier. A film based on a True American Story, that follows the life of Jackson Harlow, from young dreamer to haunted war veteran in this harrowing portrayal of PTS(D), substance abuse & addiction, and the effects it has, not only on Soldiers but also their loved ones

Alexander and I converse about the origins of the Lonesome Soldier story and what and who inspired him to write the film. We also discuss the unthinkable process he put himself through to bring the character of Jackson Harlow to life and due just to the struggles of our Veterans who struggle with mental health and substance issues.

We answer the following questions.

What can we do to help our Veterans?

How did your father being a Special Forces soldier impact you?

What did you learn about mental health and substance abuse from making the film?

How did Alexander use his own trauma to bring the character of Jackson Harlow to life?

How did his mother being an actor impact his path to his career?

We finish our conversation with fun random questions and Alexander finishes with final thoughts.

This is Alexander Randazzo Knockin’ Doorz Down.
