"A drug user's paradise" | Drug addict interview in Kensington

[@TomaDubs]

I went to school with this guy. I actually used to be his friend. He was always the class clown, getting suspended for just constantly joking around and never taking life seriously. Glad to see you're still out there deedee. I hope you take care of yourself.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Reach out to me on Instagram I'd like to speak to you a bit about yours and his upbringing if possible @arturio55

[@Smallbetts]

Exactly what he talking bout. Nobody cares. Respectfully u sound fake as ever😂. Respectfully. U just here for likes. You don’t know what that man going through. People act out and be class clowns to escape reality fyi. To run from home problems. Sad American public. GTFOH respectfully 😒

[@jennifer9995]

He's very smart, and he's right! Ppl who are down are way more giving than those who have always been up!

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Unfortunately that is the case. But I guess that's one of the benefits of these types of videos, show the rest of society that these are still human beings deserving of our compassion and empathy. Too often do people well-off judge them and act like it's taboo to even consider wanting to help.

[@donaldpeterson590]

As a recovering alcoholic/addict, I can offer this small bit of information in regards to Scooby saying he wants people to love him for him: You can't make others do ANYTHING. Especially FEEL. You have to accept you. Period. When you have your ducks in a row, and your values are something YOU can respect, that's all that matters. I hate to break this to you, but nobody cares. Nobody cares that you're an addict, nobody cares if you have depression, nobody cares that you had a bad childhood. YOU have to fix it. YOU have to care. YOU have to change. YOU have to accept you. Once YOU work on YOU, nobody can take that away. If you can figure out how to survive broke and Jonesing, you can figure out how to get clean.

[@DuckiesDad08]

The self reliance aspect is a good attitude. However, there are absolutely people who care. They may not care in ways you feel they should, but plenty sobriety advocates, addiction counselors, and others choose to work in that field because they care. It’s not a lucrative, nor glamorous, job. “No one cares” is an unfortunate personal experience. It is not a fact. Be careful with your words, especially when speaking to a vulnerable audience. Hopefully you’ll find someone whose care you can see.

[@CrashOutTiming718]

Thats spooky!!!

[@christophershelton1735]

You’re doing a great job with these interviews. Great job. I’ve been in his shoes before not in Philly. I was a drug addict and homeless but now I’m clean sober since 2015. I’m the store manager at a car stereo store live in my best life sobriety is possible.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Thanks I'm glad my work is being so well received. Tbh I see a lot of room for improvement but seems like I had a good start so only uo from here. It's great that you've maintained being clean. Hope all is well for you and wish you positivity and success. Keep striving to stay safe and prosperous. If you ever wanna get your story out there stay tuned, in future I may start traveling and let some of you people in the comments be featured on my channel if you want to give hope to others and let them hear some success stories.

[@andytom91]

⁠love this channel as well!

[@nedthestaffieegan3452]

I was moved by what he said at the start of the video about just wanting to be himself. This is such a hard thing to do for many of us. It was also surprising to hear about the mostly positive experiences he's had, and especially the friends he has made. He's right about the preconceptions people have about junkies being thieves etc. When they know how it feels to be ignored and treated like garbage, they understand compassion. Scooby is a lovely person, I'm glad he's got friends who have his back. Usually I feel bad for folk stuck in addiction or wish a better life for them, but there is something about Scooby that I respect and admire. Its a quality of honesty and no self pity that is refreshing.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

You hit the nail on the head. Hes a really great person and I'd like to soon consider him a friend myself. I hope I can influence some change in him

[@nedthestaffieegan3452]

@@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel that's really cool. I thought the same thing, I reckon it's something to do with you too and a different way of connecting. It stands out from all of these other channels where you come across in a more sincere way, as yourself rather than a documentary maker, and setting yourself apart from the 'subjects'. I guess it's hard to explain, but you aren't patronizing, overly 'compassionate' (which is another form of patronization or othering). It's not just a better technique, it's also a reflection of your personality as an individual, and the intention of connecting with the people who cross your path as if they were a potential friend. This approach really contrasts with the others I've come across, and stands out to offer a much more enjoyable experience for viewers. Not in an entertainment sense, not at all, but to enjoy seeing how easy it is to connect in a deeper way that's more of a mutual thing. As I said, this is the only time I've not felt like the obvious interviewer/ subject dynamic, and feeling so separate from the part of the world you are in. I've not come away with that uncomfortable feeling of exploitation, of the interviewee's but also viewers feeling pity and a sense of implicit superiority their lives are 'better'. This is usually reflected in the comments however well intentioned, and I've never been comfortable with it. It would be great if you and Scooby could forge a friendship, as you can sense the potential and mutual connection. Well done for creating a really nice channel, that's coming from your heart, and I hope you get to make some new friends along the way 🫂🤗

[@purpledragondc7532]

Beautiful young soul- he is true to himself- I hope he makes it out alive 🙏🙏🙏 pure honest interview -

[@_chosen_remnant]

Scooby got mad potential. Interview pulls you in from the very beginning. Compelling stuff and very authentic dude. I see him singing a victory song one day soon, in Jesus Name. Plus, I gotta say this-- no shade on anybody else but after hearing you freak the mic, your interviewing style stands out as refreshingly dynamic compared to others in the field. While some tend to sound monotonous and formulaic, your approach is more personalized and engaging, allowing each interviewees personality to shine through. These other dudes are sounding more and more like robots on repeat asking the same exact questions for every single person almost treating them as just another number sharing the same story as the last person instead of individuals sharing their unique experience. If I was doing these jawns I'd allow the personality and tempermant of the person determine where I'm going with the questions and it feels like that's what you do. You're hitting this thing out the park, homie! Big ups, game changer.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Scooby indeed has potential. I spent several hours with him this night and again the following day. He's pretty cool and definitely doesn't want to be out there. I think he's just too used to it all. Gonna develop a real relationship with him and try to influence a change. You'll be seeing him a lot on my channel. Glad you notice and appreciate my approach to it all. The good thing about being arrogant is that I won't allow myself to do the bare minimum lol. I'm gonna try to have fun while doing all this and put my best foot forward each time. Hopefully I get as close to 100% as I can. I not only want to stand out but I want each interviewee to feel unique and important themselves also. It'll make for a better experience all around. As usual, thanks for tuning in and I'm thankful to have you not just as a viewer but a youtube homie 🫡🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

[@howtodaily9930]

Wishing the best for him. Honestly I didn’t even want to read the comments because I’m so used to seeing the internet judge and not just be able to for one moment put aside their own thoughts and feelings on a situation and judge. Refreshing to see the community showing support for this man and the channel.

[@viralsports4258]

Scooby has some really profound insights. Great interview. Also, one thing that is noticable with the quality of this video is the audio. Its soo good, I feel like im standing there and not at home. You can tell the other interview channels are recording with phones and lower quality mics.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

I'm using high quality wireless mics (not the best by far, but for under $500 they're top tier) and I was an audio engineer for a while before getting into videography so yea I take some time to process and EQ the audio during editing. Idk how those other guys do it lol that bad audio would drive me insane , let alone bad visual quality 😬😬

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Also yea his perspective on everything out there is pretty interesting. I'm glad he's so positive, maybe to the point where it's even his youthfulness leaning towards naiveté, but in a good way. I have a lot of hope for him, he can definitely make it out and live a good life.

[@ponaliramos9773]

No "Scooby" doesn't have any insight beyond that of a middle schooler on drugs because that's basically what he is. Why don't you go find insight from someone who doesn't live on the streets dirty and on drugs.

Very good intervju! Scoobie is very genuine and honest person! I am SURE you can get clean! Make sure you go to a rehab far away and stay long! Please Take your own advise! Life is too short to be spent like that! You probably can be a model when your clean you got the look👍

[@serenityfreedom3096]

Scooby it's much harder to be an untreated addict than to thrive in the regular world but it ain't over until you decide. In respect to your comment about acceptance, we were born alone and we'll die alone. Pick your dream life and manifest it. People come n go. Facing the reasons for using drugs is the price of freedom. Dying early is the price of drugging and drugging eventually gets boring and stops doing the trick. Godspeed Scooby.

[@stephmartinez701]

A question I always want to know is how long it took before they got addicted to the point they had withdrawal and ended up in Kensington full-time.

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

I'll make note and try to remember to ask this in the future. Definitely a good question

[@SKYZTHELIMIT514]

Man I’m glad you branched off on your own after the fallout. Tbh I enjoy your interviews over the other channels

[@agatamacierzynska4436]

This is the first interview that I've seen is this first ??? 👍👍👍great interview to ask the ppl what they really want

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

There's another on my channel with Abe

[@8летнеменялник]

Yup, true af. At first seems like a paradise, but then you realise you want more and more. All other activities start to seem pointless, not interesting or joyfull. Fortunately, i didn't go too deep, hope i'll be able to quit. I've changed a lot of things, started feeling good moving forward sober, i won't forget that amphetamine/coke drive and Euphoria, but now i realise how pointless and bad it is

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

Thanks for sharing and I'm happy to see that you are aware of how it all affects you and you're figuring things out. Just like me and alcohol. I love it but damn it was so bad for me. Stay strong and keep fighting. Hope to keep seeing you in the comments. Love from NJ 💯

[@ronferguson9695]

Great interview, really like your style, also done with respect and dignity! If I may be so bold, these are the questions to ask first: name, age, where they’re from… As I said great interview!!

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

You are right could've gotten a bit more personal but we had spent quite some time together before cameras were set up and I just kinda carried on the convo from where it already was. Been trying to handle each interview uniquely , I think I'm so focused on trying to NOT follow a script that I forget some of the basic things.

[@ronferguson9695]

@@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel All good mate, you’re doing great!

[@LuKeket-r1d]

Very true Scooby that's all I ever wanted to a person to love me for me accept me for me Pray no matter what u go thru I'm a drug addict too Hard core

[@ginabelle7]

I’m hopeful for this guy, he seems to be smart and have a lot of self awareness.

[@andytom91]

I not only related to the words coming out of his mouth…I connected with his heart. great interview. You are worth of help brother. I can feel it in you. You’re an amazing person, you just have to want it. And I pray that someday you do.

[@litkidsandfam]

And to think there own country did this to them.... To make it full circle u should interview recovering addicts who have prevailed from the street and are doing better in there life... big ups to bruh and the entire movement many blessings 🙏

[@Blue-lo4cb]

He looks like he could use a hug. I feel that, man. I’m 5 years off a bad habit of fent. It’s possible. You are powerful not powerless and life is still kind of shitty but it’s not as shitty as it was when I was a slave to that substance or some other substance. Good luck to y’all out there. I care about you and I believe in you. All of you.

[@gingerelle101]

Scooby, break the cycle and stop doing drugs. Detox and reprogram your mindset. Let people love and accept the best version of yourself, but most importantly, LEARN TO LOVE AND ACCEPT YOURSELF. ❤

[@omazz1965]

This dude is an eloquent guy. Lots of potential

[@karenhousley7720]

What a lad I wish him all the best. ❤

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

I'm happy that you appreciate the quality and the effort that goes into it. Hope you stick around for a while, lots of great content to come and hopefully can help a few souls in the process.

[@krishorst4734]

we good people, we just get high! i feel that! 100! This whole interview was Scooby questioning himself. Im in the same place, but i been there for years, im stuck here. dont do that. follow thru bro. i hope u do.

[@B-ux7nf]

Excellent video. More like a film. The director which is you was on point. Felt like i was standing right there in Kensington which ihave been in thisarea many times passing through..

[@AshleyMarie-n3p]

I fell in love with his vibes and mind.

[@kidkoz8452]

Just watched your video on atm fox and the split and I’m glad u decided to work on your own and now your flourishing on your own as u should big bro you was the talent & technician of that whole channel and stayed quiet and humble but they took advantage of that. Now all u gotta worry about is yourself and work as hard as you want with no one holding u back like u wanted and u growin real fast bro I love to see it good sht! I’m struggling w addiction too and instead of watching atm ree all the time to try and get my head straight you earned a new loyal sub I’ll be tuning into this channel now instead just promise to stay active and consistent like u said u wanted to be in the atm fox video keep on going bro salute .

[@TheBestStreetInterviewChannel]

I definitely will and I'm glad everything resonated with you. I've been pretty busy this past week but will be going back to Kensington soon to try and get some more footage. Stick around for a while and always feel free to reach out I'm always down for a quick convo in the comments. Stay safe and take care

[@Cheryl-z2k]

The general population needs to understand that it's not a moral issue! Addiction is a sickness but involves physical mental n spiritual. Plus as a recovering Addict I wanted to quit but cudnt. 😢. Until after 7 years!
