Ink and Recovery: DJ Tambe's Path from Addiction to Artistry

My biggest strength is how relatable and likable I can be, but I've used it in so many horrible, disgusting ways.
In this episode of 'An Addictive Perspective', Joshua Russell and his co-hosts, 2 Razor Blades and Straight Edge, sit down with the talented DJ Tambe. Known for winning 'Ink Master' twice, DJ Tambe's journey is a riveting blend of art, addiction, and redemption. From his early days in a rough New York tattoo shop to owning successful studios in Las Vegas and Nashville, Tambe's story is anything but ordinary.
He opens up about his battles with addiction, revealing how his charming personality was often a tool for manipulation during his darkest times. The conversation dives deep into the tattooing world, sharing behind-the-scenes insights from 'Ink Master' and the history of tattooing itself. But it's not just about the ink. Tambe discusses the crucial role of support systems in recovery and the profound impact addiction had on his role as a father.
He also offers practical advice for staying sober in the entertainment industry and tips for running a successful podcast. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that recovery is possible and success can follow even the most challenging journeys.
