Description

After a six-week absence, Chris Akin returns to THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW to detail his near-death experience with COVID-19 and pneumonia. He confesses he was “very, very close” to dying, even feeling like he was “fading away” in the hospital. Find out how his fierce “mental resolve” and lack of fear of death helped him fight through the sickest he’s ever been, even compared to his burn accident.
