Nothing but respect for Brian, Takes a big man to accept he has issues with his mental health and to take steps like tablets to help with that. But it takes an even bigger man to stand up in-front of hundreds of thousands and openly talk about it. This will have helped a lot of people, good job fella

[@yourgo-toguy4133]

Wow. I don’t think I can fully express how much this podcast resonated with me. I’ve been watching everything TrueGeordie has put out on YT for a couple of years now. And I’ve always loved Brian’s ability to be self aware, own up to his mistakes, and try to improve on himself. And then there’s Lawrence.. what an incredible friend - he always listens, offers sound and non invasive advice, takes and gives punches like an absolute champion, never takes himself too seriously and will pull you up when you need it. These two men together is a fucking blessing that I absolutely love that I get to experience. When Brian opened up about his negative self talk, hatred for who he used to be, and inability to enjoy anything when the bullshit takes hold, I just couldn’t believe it. It was as if he was describing me and not himself. Even the unfortunate situation with his dad.. I’m experiencing something verrrrry similar in my life Rn. I’m really proud of where these guys and this channel are at. Keep up the great work gents, I’ll keep supporting however I can.

[@langemannkjøh]

[@TheBatman007666]

Honestly I don’t know how else to describe Brian and Loz’s content but classy - even down to the production on the intro’s, the camera angles and quality they use - it’s some of the classiest content on KZbin that I’ve come across. Absolutely loving this pod so far!

Love you guys so much. I am a 24-year-old female, who has almost nothing in common with Brian, yet I have never related to anyone more. So honest, and real. Everything he said about his depression and being a deep thinker was so accurate and true. It is like listening to a friend who completely gets you. Also, the way Lawrence is able to talk to Brian is so special, he always knows how to articulate his words in a way that is not offensive and is so genuine. Great podcast, from great men.

[@michaelgonzalez6156]

Brains transparency is so inspiring and nurturing. I really felt like I related a lot to Brain listening this and it’s extremely helpful to hear such a successful person talk about it. Talks like these and transparency are extremely important and help so many people who are struggling I’m so grateful that Brain is able to be this real with us and hope he continues being this real because it is a huge help for me and people out there struggling.

Not gonna lie those old podcasts with just you and Laurence are legendary you guys made me laugh too much. So nostalgic rewatching them

[@SophieBeva]

I really resonated with this podcast guys. As someone with PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder among other things and also having a strange relationship with my Mum and no relationship with my Dad due to personal choices. I really respect both of you and how open you can be on the podcast. When the roles reverse and you have to be the more parental one in the relationship due to the parents mental health and look after them it really can be a challenge at times especially if you are struggling with your own mental health alongside it. Definitely not the only one who’s benefited from the raw open talk about life + mental health in this podcast. Any time this type of podcast is posted by you guys it always makes me have a look at how I’m working on myself and what I can do to improve on physical and mental health. Well done guys, honestly my favourite down to earth podcast that makes my week when I see the notification pop up.

[@TheMagpieChannelTV]

Finally got round to finishing this and immediately going to stick at back on in the car again tomorrow. Huge respect to Brian for his honesty and transparency.
