4
You're one of those people to me.
5
I don't even know how, as a child, that you were able to concentrate on guitar and play the guitar with your background.

Do you know anything about Dave Navarro's background?

No, I do not.

If I can bring up some of your tragedy, without just turning into a telethon.
9
No, no, absolutely.
10
Your mother was killed at an early age by a guy who raised you.
11
It was a guy that she was dating, and I wouldn't say he raised me.
12
I think that that guy got lost in the translation.
13
He lived with you for a while.
14
He just had to be living with you at the time.
15
No, and truth be told, he was, you know, I did trust the guy.
16
Right.
17
And I was close to him.
18
Right.
19
And why not?
20
I mean, you have two options.
21
How old were we talking?
22
I was 15.
23
Right.
24
15 years old, his mother was taken away from him.
25
Wow.
26
Your parents were divorced.
27
But it was a violent kind of thing?
28
Yeah.
29
Your mom was murdered.
30
Yeah, yeah.
31
And your mom was this beautiful woman.
32
She was on The Price is Right.
33
I mean she was doing well.
34
Yeah, she was she was um it was actually my mother
35
and my aunt who happened to be there And
36
and they were murdered yeah by this one guy
37
and the guy got away with it for like 10 years But the freaky thing is that TV show
38
America's most wanted got the guy yeah, could you you knew who did it?
39
Oh, yeah.
40
How did you know he was the guy who killed your mom?
41
Well, I kind of put two
42
and two together I mean I had a gun to my
43
head a couple weeks You know we did I said I didn't know that yeah, so like there was a point where
44
where he had broken into the house and kind of held me up
45
and handcuffed me and basically got pretty violent and then let me go.
46
Who was this guy?
47
I mean, were they broken up at the time?
48
Yeah.
49
He was so in love with her that if he couldn't have her, no one else could.
50
Yeah.
51
I mean, that's what you would think.
52
I mean, there's no logical explanation for something like that.
53
Yeah.
54
But I mean, I think in that irrational thinking, that's what was going on.
55
The guy's locked up in prison now.
56
Yeah.
57
Have you ever been able to say to this guy why'd you take my mother from me?
58
No, no, no, I mean cuz I don't I don't think that any answer he could give me to that Yeah, what would be satisfied?
59
Yeah, it's gonna be satisfactory.
60
The guitar save you like were you like one of those
61
kids who just like sat in his room play guitar when all this happened?
62
I started at 11 So I kind of had that as an avenue.
63
All right when you're that age or for me You don't know where to go with that kind of stuff No, and
64
and you don't know who to talk to you kind of
65
don't even have the dialogue to talk to anybody about that kind of thing I mean, it's just so overwhelming right and so So I just kind of turned to music.
66
You know, to me, to come back from something like that, after your mom is killed, your aunt, I mean, just your whole family, and I guess your dad was distant.
67
Did you have brothers and sisters?
68
No, no. That's it.
69
No, my dad was there.
70
He just, you know, he loved this woman, and so, you know, we were both kind of like...
71
Devastated.
72
Yeah, we were both devastated.
73
Was your whole life uprooted in the sense also that you had to move?
74
Yeah, where'd you go?
75
Well, my parents were divorced, and I was living with my mother, and I ended up just moving in with my dad, which was in the same city.
76
And the weird thing about it, and a connection I made years and years later, which was I used to spend Wednesday evenings with my dad.
77
Right.
78
And for some reason, he couldn't see me one Wednesday and he saw me on a Thursday instead.
79
Right.
80
And that's when this happened.
81
Wow.
82
You could have been there.
83
And if I was, yeah.
84
And if that little chance didn't happen, I probably would have gotten killed too.
85
If you hadn't gone to visit your father.
86
Right.
87
Right.
88
So, and I kind of believe, you know, I mean, and it's unfortunate it's taken me years and, you know, I had to create much more trauma in order to get to this place for somehow, you know.
89
Yeah, I mean, because you went like, and understandably, you went like crazy from this.
90
Yeah.
91
And I understand that the drugs and all that kind of stuff.
92
I'll tell you something about the drugs and all that stuff.
93
And I appreciate, you know, you suggesting understandably I went to that.
94
Absolutely.
95
At the same time, though, I can confirm that there was part of me that used
96
that trauma as an excuse to pretty much get away with whatever I wanted.
97
Right.
98
So you said, oh, yeah, I'm allowed to do drugs because my mother was killed.
99
And whatever else.
100
Oh, poor me.
101
I've had this horrible thing.
102
And you can excuse this.
103
You can excuse that.
104
And it took a lot of damage inflicted upon myself.
105
I'll say.
106
I mean, I was reading some of the stuff that, I mean, I don't know where we got all this stuff from.
107
Maybe some of it's not true.
108
You tell me.
109
Yeah, let's clear it up.
110
Your heroin addiction got so bad you had sores on your face that exploded.
111
No one would even go near you and stuff.
112
Yeah.
113
I mean, here you are.
114
You're such a good -looking guy.
115
I wonder how people, you know, because his skin looks perfect.
116
How do people come back from that?
117
Yeah, how do you come back?
118
Why do you not have any scars on your face?
119
Why are you so lucky?
120
You know what?
121
I have no idea.
122
You don't know.
123
I really don't, and I do feel totally blessed and lucky to be able to come back from something like that.
124
Yeah.
125
And you know what?
126
And if anything else, it's like, and I hate to sit here and sound like arrogant and like I've got some message for anybody.
127
But the truth of the matter is I was pretty bad and it's possible to come back.
128
If you came back, anybody could.
129
I hate to say that because that implies that I'm as bad as it gets.
130
But I was pretty bad and I've discovered that life is a beautiful thing.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
