One of the rawest and most vulnerable episodes we've ever recorded. In 2009, after experiencing a mental breakdown following a relationship breakup, Rob found himself in a dark place, seeking an escape from his pain. He called the police, hoping for a violent end, but instead found himself shot through the chest and living to tell the tale. Now Rob is on a journey to teach others how to better manage their mental health, to save the lives of those struggling with depression. A top human, Jiu Jitsu Practitioner, and one of the the craziest stories of all time. I highly recommend checking out his work and his documentary "Shot Bro" - link below!
