Bam Margera is speaking again with son Phoenix, five, whom he's using to motivate him to get clean at Lamar Odom-owned rehab center

Bam Margera has been speaking with his five-year-old son Phoenix as he continues to try to get clean at a rehab center ran by Lamar Odom.

The Jackass alum, 43, is focusing on his son as his source for motivation to get and stay sober, sources told TMZ Tuesday, following a difficult stretch for the TV personality in recent months.

The Viva La Bam star has reached an accord with estranged wife Nicole Boyd, 39, to be able to communicate with Phoenix, her lawyer David Glass told the outlet.

Margera on June 4 was located by authorities at a Trejo's Tacos location in Los Angeles and taken in for a 5150 psychiatric hold after he took to social media threatening to end his life if he could not reunite with his son.

Margera had taken to social media May 30 in a clip he later deleted, claiming he would 'smoke crack' until he died unless he was able to see his son, saying, 'I haven't seen Phoenix in two f***ing months - I have to wake up every day, knowing that I probably won't get to talk to him or see him.'

Margera and his son have been using FaceTime to chat for about five minutes at a time while being supervised by one of the reality star's therapists.

Margera has not communicated directly with Boyd amid lingering tension between the two following her separation filing.

Do they have Chorizo taco’s. I love Chorizo. Taco’s 4 life had them now they just have little bitty street tacos.

Chorizo and scrambled eggs are the bomb if the chorizo is good.

Familiar with Ryan Dunn?

Unbelievably tragic self imposed death.

So helpful to be kept aware of Mr. Margera’s personal struggles.

So now we’re down to essentially random people no one has ever heard of, and their attempts to get sober.

Just because you’ve never heard of them doesn’t mean they aren’t famous. Anyone under the age of 45-50 knows who Bam Margera is.

Too much money and time, and “friends” who drag you down, often equals a drug and alcohol fueled life.

At least for people like Bam.

I wish him luck. For his son’s sake.

We were in a position where life was becoming impossible, and if we had passed into the region from which there is no return through human aid, we had but two alternatives: One was to go on to the bitter end, blotting out the consciousness of our intolerable situation as best we could; and the other, to accept spiritual help. BB. P25.

Two outcomes to choose from:
1) Happy, joyous, free.
2) Jails, institutions, death.


Its hard, personal work. But not near as hard as decades of addictions.

When I was under the age of 45-50, I knew who John Waters was, as well as his favorite performer "Divine."

Brain-damaged behavior and the Jackass guys - always a steady combination.

How do you define famous? For me the metric means at a minimum almost 33% to 50% of people should have heard of you. I don’t think this metric applies at all to this dude. I bet it is probably closer to 5%.

Back around 1985 I had a falling out with my best friend over our excessive partying and drinking. We both went our separate ways while I stopped partying.

He owned a tool and die shop and fell in with another partier who also owned a company that was well established while my friend's was trying to start up.

Long story short, my friend lost his business then his house and was living in an upstairs flat belonging to some lady where he was found dead of a drug overdose around 1994.
