I know exactly what you mean, my dad was born in 1936, he was in Korea in 1951 (15 years old) very young to be in war, that wasn’t enough for him , my mom said that he was thrilled to be heading to war in Vietnam, my live from 1963 until 1982 was a war zone when I was finally able to remove myself from his presence and I’ve never looked back!!

Honestly, nobody talks about that anymore. You’d say why? Why don’t the consequences of war talked about any more and not only that they glorify war! They say we need to show the world how powerful America is and its reasons to force its power all over the world. If you don’t go along with that your an enemy or a trader to America and if you do go along with it your a true patriot!! It’s sick and pathetic mindset and evil way of life.

My dad would beat my mom me and my two brothers. He was an angry alcoholic and drug addict. We were constantly in and out of women and children shelters. Eventually he overdosed on my 14th bday. I got put in a boys home a year later my mom couldn’t take care of us. I got out at 18 and quickly became addicted to cigarettes alcohol hard drugs and was homeless most of the time. Fast forward to now im 33. I’m sober living on Kauai making good money in really good shape and putting the pieces back together talking to psychiatrists and therapists. All Glory to god that I got out of the world I was in. There’s hope for us all

This is one of my favorite interviews…ever. And , yes, some beatings, molestations or rape we just slough off. Sometimes, I believe that some of us were born just to survive. Did it have an effect on my growth? Yes. It made me horrendously protective of the weak from the age of four. It gave me purpose. Save the ones who can’t protect themselves and move on. Joel, you are amazing.

@@Harold-os6bc thanks for answering. I am interested in this topic because I promote natural law, property rights. The end of govt as we know it. My theory is that the laws of nature are better for mankind than the laws of govt. So, I don't know your story, but I would like to ask how your life would have been if you grew up pre civil war with some land that could sustain your life. Maybe a town with some shops/trading a few hours away. I don't know if you did time for property crimes or not. In the case of drugs or something, you would've just lived out your own consequences. But in the case of stealing or battery, you may have ended up getting shot. So, from someone that thinks they benefitted from prison, I'd like to know if you would still think that way if you were born in the early 1800s, with land you could live off of, and the freedom to enjoy your life as you saw fit. And if the potential freedom and consequences of that time in history may have also benefitted you.

Joel, Scott here, we spoke quite a bit after your last video, I know it's difficult to remember everyone though. I just wanted to thank you for pt.2, Brother. So good to see you doing well. I had told you when we spoke that I was on from 84' to 95' As far as good time's spent with friend's goes, i had the "Time of my Life!" That decade cost me alot but there ain't nothing like a Grateful Dead show, period ! Jerry up on stage, what color shirts he wearing & that'll set the tone... Such amazing time's, listening to you speak on it, I almost looked over a couple time's as if we were really speaking to me as we made our way up Shakedown.... Can you believe I still have some of my DeaD T's from the 80's, Brother! Still wear them a couple time's a year on special occasions.... I've still got an 89' Alpine Vallet-shirt that's embroidered, I've gotta send you a pic of it, you'll be able to explain it to me, the Egyptian symbolism on it, I think that's what it is, it's beautiful ! I'd get married & buried in this thing, Brother... I'm gonna see if I can find you on here or or somewhere music oriented... Drop me a note & I'll getcha back, can't remember where you call home ? No worries, thanks again, happy for you, Joel, you're obviously good people.. . scott

Great interview Mark and such a nice gentleman. Speaking of a Lefty i remember as a kid I loved playing baseball and even though i wrote with my right hand I couldn't throw a baseball with my right hand to save my life. It was just more natural to throw with my left hand. My mother tried and tired to get me to throw with my right hand until finally my father said let him throw with whatever hand he feels most comfortable with. I couldn't bat left handed only right handed. I ended up perfecting my craft and became a very good pitcher and ended up spending 2 years in the Dodgers farm team organization as a pitcher. Then after the 2 years i got promoted to the Dodgers roster as a starting pitcher. And then the unthinkable happened I was involved in a serious car accident that almost took off my left arm and that ended my baseball career and my dream of being a MLB pitcher. During all of this time my mother would often say she was glad she didn't force me to throw with my right hand .. LOL

Amazing.....I can never fathom having to spend that much time in prison. There are so many things wrong with our prison system today.....I'm glad you're out Joel, and it would seem to me that you are "reformed"......I hope that the rest of your life you use what "Ghetto" taught you......I know that we are either predator or pray, but in the world we live in now I would rather be kind and pay it forward than to be a person who causes so much misery in another persons life. Thank you again Joel for telling your story, and thank you Mark for having him on to tell his story.....I hope it can prevent at least one person from going to "Super Max"!

This is real prison folklore. Real crazy shit. 100% correct on everything. Chad Marks has a YT channel Blood On The Razor Wire TV. He did 17yrs mostly in big sandy but he's been everywhere he's a certified expert in this folklore topic. Not just Silverstein and Cadillac either. Some crazy shit be going down in the FEDS those USPs are the real deal. A place you never want to find yourself. Shoutout Mark and Joel for another great guest follow up- hope joels having a great day today, living his best life now! 💯 Edit: i thought Silverstein went to the ADX i didn't know it was Leavenworth.

My brother-in-law was in Marion prison when John Gotti was in there. My brother in law whose name was also John, didn’t get a chance to tell many stories once he got out of prison because he died of cancer not very long after being released from prison. Addition to the story: my brother in law John, was sent to Marion prison, the most Max prison in the United States just for drugs, no violence or robbery or anything else like that, just drugs. I always thought that was quite a bit of overkill.

I’d LOVE to tell my stories as a former Sgt for Tx Dept of Criminal Justice in a max penitentiary. The drugs, fights and especially the female officers who fall in love and the great lengths they will go to be with these convicts is astonishing!!

I did LSD several times. It was always fun and amazing until one really bad trip, That bad trip was me taking it to try and run and hide from a bad situation. I won't bore anyone with the extraordinary details of that. It was really bad, but it taught me who I am as a person, and I would not change anything if I could go back in time.

Just stop and think about the logic of putting someone in a supermax prison because they were selling people pieces of paper they put on their tongue that gave them some of the best experiences of their lives at some of the best concerts they'd ever seen.
