His story is a weird and worthy subject. As is he." - Jason Alexander, actor, comedian, director "Zabrecky’s memoirs are surprising, addictive, terrifying, magical. He careens through childhood, rock and roll, and popular entertainment by driving on the shoulder, passing on the right, and then playing bumper cars with the cold, hard truth. You’re in for a fantastic ride." - Jim Steinmeyer, President of the Magic Castle, author, inventor "There are some voices, some lives, some stories that so uniquely and powerfully make up the blood of Los Angeles' pulsing, and Rob Zabrecky's Strange Cures is without a doubt one of them. A breathtaking journey through music, addiction, revival and literal and metaphorical magic by one of LA's most cherished and significant pillars makes Zabrecky's trajectory a read you won't soon forget." -Amber Tamblyn, Actress, Author, Poet --------------------------------------------------------------------- Today's episode of the Love, Alexi podcast is brought to you by Sanae Intoxicants located in the Elements of Gray Building in Los Feliz California.
