Talk:Brandon Novak

Date
Just so everyone knows, this artical is currently incorrct, the date of birth here, December 10th, 1978 is wrong. his real birthday is december 10th, 1977, as stated in his book. he has lied about it when being booked so his previous records wouldn't come up. he has actually said he has lied about it so much, he has previously forgotten his birthday. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Therasmus666x (talk • contribs) 15:37, 28 November 2008 (UTC)


 * also, according to the radio show 10/11/08, he is still clean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.164.170.35 (talk) 23:13, 2 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Incorrect, I just looked up his arrest records in Maryland and his bday is 12/10/78Zdawg1029 (talk) 15:28, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Illnesses
I think the article needs to discuss that Novak's medical conditions. In 2005, Novak and the CKY crew discussed how Novak has Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B amongst other issues. NovakFan76 (talk) 21:19, 29 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Also CKY talks about Brandon's son, Jackson, on December 5, 2005 (Radio Bam) and the issues about his son's birth. NovakFan76 (talk) 19:31, 3 October 2009 (UTC)


 * In his book, Dreamseller, he talks about finding out he has Hepatitis C (chapter 13: "changes", specifically pages 229-230). 23TXC89 (talk) 17:06, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Release From Jail: He was released on December 30th and he's now in West Chester with his girlfriend — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.44.163.178 (talk) 18:23, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Addiction, etc...
The coverage of this issue is ridiculously overblown, uncited in places, and uses poor sources on the whole. --94.117.6.89 (talk) 22:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
