Zack W. Van's revealing tale of a young man reaching his potential through many obstacles epitomizes what the "The Troy McDonald Show" is all about. In his frank, honest portrayal of a gay teen , W. Van gives hope to those in need of inspiration.

Zach and I sat down a few months back to talk about his amazing journey writng this book. It is truly one of my favorite episodes. It proves that no matter what obstacles you are facing, you are not alone.

Its because of this that I have named his book "Inanimate Heroes" as our first ever "Favorite Thing". This is an important, informative read that I think will open your eyes and get you to think a little differently. You can purchase the book from the following outlets. The book will download on your e-reader, Kindle, and on iBooks
