    An Introspective Path to Recovery w/ Artist Scotty Colin

    In this Gord’s Corner episode, I sit down with Scotty Colin to talk about his upbringing in Los Angeles, skateboarding, punk rock, falling into addiction, and his path to recovery—along with a few other adventures he experienced along the way. Scotty’s fascination with pattern recognition, as it relates to self-discovery and personal growth, is inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with Scotty, and I hope you enjoy it too. This was recorded when Scotty was in Vancouver in June of 2025 for his Art Show at Outsiders and Others—a non-profit art Society with a focus on bringing non-traditional artists to the forefront. -Gord (Background voice chiming in from time  to time is my twin brother, George—making sure production is going smoothly.)
