[@robnicklin7616]

Joe is the true epitome of somebody with courage, self awareness and being a good human. To come out and talk about this, in the way that he does, will genuinely save people's lives and I'd be surprised if it hasn't saved countless lives already. Well done mate, you're a true man.

[@BentJ87]

Wow Joe, thanks for sharing. Raw authentic and powerful. You're not alone and good on you for talking about it. Praying for you

[@aidanosullivan830]

Given the seriousness of this interview, the advert interruptions are unacceptable

[@chrisstock5210]

The adverts enables this type of interview to take places. You can pay to not have the adverts from KZbin. The high performance sponsorships enable the presenters to take the time to interview guests. It’s a small price to pay (your time) to be able to watch content like this.

[@faces_of_japan]

The candor here is wonderful. During his playing days, Joe was both a real scalawag and a pantomime villain. Somebody who you could really love or hate. Just his sheer presence was and is great for the game. The haircut alone was worth the price of admission. His “getting back on the horse” interview is a masterpiece.

[@TheBrownsUK]

The more I listen to Joe the more I begin to understand myself. I’m a lot older! In fact almost twice his age. I also played front row rugby at club level for 24years. I also was extremely aggressive and had many sendings off. I also destroyed my personal life in my 30’s because of my difficult temperament. Cost me two marriages. Took me a long time to work it out and my 3rd wife to save my life! Thanks Joe for opening up and sharing. There was no therapy available to me when I was younger so it just carried on. I hope that young guys who are struggling with mental health issues take note and inspiration from your honesty. God bless you Joe. 👍🏉

[@darthmaul408]

This is a brilliant podcast, but just some honest feedback. There are too many adverts. They are interrupting the flow of the brilliant content.

[@JB-xd9dr]

See earlier comment. The pod is only possible via sponsorship. But you can opt to pay YT to get it ad free.

[@junehardiman6469]

I can honestly understand what that feels like, I've had very similar issues with myself, and the way it just explodes out, they guily you then feel afterwards. Thank you for been so honest and open about this and bringing it to the forefront, I have found a new respect for you Joe

[@dannyadams1004]

everything joe said resonates with me im a former pro footballer who has had similar struggles and received help luckily and have been clean for over 3yrs the same emotions i still have feeling empty and lost but wont go back to where i was top podcast thanks it has helped me alot

[@michaelmichael-j4l]

Kin el! This was powerful! Amazingly honest and sensitively managed conversation! Thank you

[@jamesndworld]

Joe’s story resonates a lot with me; I had a mental breakdown and his book and documentary helped me through it. I started medication and therapy, and I’ve carried it through to today. I’m a Tighthead prop and come from a family that doesn’t like talk about mental health, having someone like Joe discussing his experience for me was literally a life saver. Thank you Joe for what you have done on and off the pitch, you legend.

[@themabozza]

Joe's story resonated strongly with me. He's inspirational how he's faced his issues, is so refreshingly self aware and continues to work on himself. I took a lot from that. Thanks, Joe.

[@bagsy1]

Marler is a great statesman for mental health, in a county where it is such an issue. Refreshingly candid, self aware and charismatic. A great ambassador! Best type of weirdo!

[@Austinpowers750750]

Superb Joe 😊

[@robjw1354]

What powerful honesty from Joe! Thank you

[@nashrace]

Oh! What an interview! Joe Mauler, honest, open and truly inspirational. Jake and Damian, great job with the interview. You both asked insightful questions and let Joe answer fully without interruption. I related, and was emotional and inspired. Thank you.

[@susannawilson9764]

I have so much love and respect for Joe Marler for his honesty. If anyone gets the chance, read Joe Marler's book loosehead confessions of an (un)professional rugby player

[@JB.924]

Will add that and listen to it tomorrow nice one

[@paulodoherty1712]

Very courageous & helpful Joe!!! Well done on sharing the challenges you faced & how you got help!!!! Very genuine & funny about a very dark place everyone goes, but no one talks about

[@joeswift5296]

Thank you for the enjoyment you’ve given me watching you play rugby for England Joe 👍🏻

[@MB-xq9hu]

Two comments from a guy that doesn't know much about this guy as a player because I live in the US and just got turned on to Rugby in the past year. 1- This is extremely brave 2- This guy is going to hurt himself if he doesn't get real help. It is not enough for someone like this to be brave and use his platform to help others which is noble, it is about helping HIM. Wishing you the best Joe Marler!

[@spooklouw8364]

Love the pod, absolutely love Joe. Thanks guys. That huel ad timing seemed a bit off though 😂

[@jmurphy-sullivan7011]

Joe Marler is an incredibly brave and talented individual

[@helenlizzystewart4908]

he was a thug

[@jmurphy-sullivan7011]

Can you give some examples?

[@napoleonbonaparte3169]

Thank you Joe, for having the courage to speak about this topic

[@Tyson8887]

Right seriously, the advert timing is ruining this podcast , joes opening up , im suicidal then you cut to poo advert .you wouldn't have a advert in the middlevof di caprio and winslett on titanic sinking

[@SteveTaylor-k7n]

EMDR ! Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprogramming. Absolute revelation for me dealing with trauma, and I hope it works for Joe too....great interview, and great to see him speaking so candidly.

[@garycurtis7695]

What a great share Joe it really helps people in the same position

[@Geordie_Peter]

One of your best interviews

[@josephwestley1862]

I Love Joe Marler so much! Keep being great Joe!

[@keego_keego]

Love the marler lad! Even in my green jersey

[@cannyjj]

Joe you are a legend; as a Scotsman thats hard (😰) to say but feck me you are an inspiration.

[@AdrianMepham-i4g]

O Joe. We do love you. Thank you.

[@carriesparks8434]

Top geezer Joe ...thank you

[@gerrit159]

Thanks for being so honest.

[@oneday9410]

I love it when people who are well known use their fame to shine light on difficult subjects like mental health. I hope that one day Joe Marler flicks through these comments to.see how many people just this podcast has helped

[@hixyhicks]

cant you do the ads at the beginning or the end ,it propers kills the flow .

[@johnfarrell9117]

This is a great video for everybody not just high-performance sports people. There is much more than therapy, EMDR isn't classical therapy, neither is tapping but they can be just as effective. Mindfulness is something I use with athletes.

[@stewiegriffin2846]

Fabulous conversation.

[@stevehicks5780]

Just be you Mr Marler 😊

[@probablynotian]

I don’t watch rugby, but I listen to everything Joe Marler does.

[@Mayle60]

Thanks joe, helps me alot, brillaint video.

[@twinnett1714]

Great interview, but do agree with the other comments, the adds are a bit much, but sure we all have to make a few quid, need a happy medium there lads, but great content really enjoyed listening

[@aidanosullivan830]

Wow Joe… so much respect man for the honesty. It takes courage to voice these insights. To be truthful I used to think you were an asshole based on your on field persona. I’m now going to share this podcast with my 11 year old son. Men need to wake up.

[@nevillematodes3550]

Powerful discussion!

[@JimCliff90]

Highest pro former absolute legend head up high you brilliant man never forget!

[@matthewthomas9556]

It took me 44 years to tell my lovely wife that I wasn't doing too well. She knows what happened in my childhood and has put up with an awful lot of self destructive behaviour from me aimed at me. I'm 51 now and while I don't love myself, I think I'm not too bad.

[@MauroPerez-o4p]

It does not matter how long it took mate, it matters that you talked to your wife. Proud of you bud!

[@henners1574]

Top bloke

[@_Super_Hans_]

Really? He sounds like a nobhead

[@richardstatters2545]

EMDR therapy : Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy technique that helps people heal from traumatic memories and other distressing life experiences

[@GreenTurtle181]

So many adverts and sponsorships!

[@adrianbriody3277]

How annoying is that noise every time the like and subscribe banner comes up?!

[@exp3l3r22]

Joe Marler is like Eddie Hall and Ricky Gervais had a baby

[@mattselwyn6918]

Jeez - appreciate you need to monetize the podcast, but the adds are ruining the interviews!

[@jasondunt850]

Great podcast, watched Joe's doc when it was released, so much more respect for him. Shame he's English 😂. Another point those chairs look so uncomfortable. Cymru y byth

[@tyronnemoosa4741]

The ads are ridiculously. Why not put them all at the beginning or all at the end of the video? instead of interrupting a brilliant interview to talk about poo

[@brettpacker2779]

Is he still doing baked potatoes?

[@Hunchbacc]

Hahahahahhaha

[@willwud]

I get the mental health stuff but to retire as England’s best prop still at 34 seems crazy to me…………..I will miss this guy. We would’ve won the last World Cup if him and coley stayed on! Good lock to you Joe! ❤

[@Tyson8887]

To me joe may be gone from rugby but i know hes somwhere on dans coles potato farm at peace

[@JackP-dz1sp]

I thought it was to go and have more bulbs

[@user-rv4go7ry3v]

Go Joe. There's also a danger of making your kids your purpose. That changes when they leave home and spread their wings. Ultimately what you're needing is to fill the void that is there for your faith

[@jamesguest7438]

Joe describes how I feel. I doubt he has any idea how many people he has helped. I'm really struggling right now and I'm in a very dark place. That's why I'm watching this. Then I'm taking the horses to water and losing it laughing because it's him saying stuff that I type. Joe you are a hero. I understand everything you say. Not bad for a lager shandy drinking southern softy. 😂😂

[@jep1912]

Really? Commiting an offence on purpose?

[@user-rv4go7ry3v]

That's his higher self analysing his lower self. It's subconscious; it's retrospective interpretation not conscious decision on the pitch I think... from what other players have said about this phenomenon.

[@user-rv4go7ry3v]

Judge not

[@owenfarmer4197]

On a rugby pitch

[@chrisfilmsstuff4666]

These stupidly timed adverts are the number 1 reason I will never buy a Huel product. Joe - Incredible! Huel - Dog turd.

[@WillWilliams-p6e]

Yeah, I would like to subscribe and I won't... the ads are insensitive and inappropriately sequenced...so I'll pass and buy Marler's book instead

[@FreemanJameZ]

I recently lost my job at the age of 45. In addition to having access to Tricare and VA healthcare, I also receive a 9K military pension. I'm thinking of selling or renting my house and moving overseas with my cash, assets, and 401(k). What are some good passive income opportunities?

[@AdamWright8fool]

It makes sense to consider a financial advisor at this stage, but delaying retirement might be a smarter choice Consulting a financial advisor is a logical step at this point, but postponing retirement could be a wiser decision

[@FreemanJameZ]

I'm not sure whether I should merge all of my investing accounts into one. If so, what should I know and how should I respond to this? In addition, I intend to sell my property, which might potentially fetch an additional $200,000. Is it better to put everything in one account or spread it out among several investments?

[@OscarOwenn]

These are important questions for a financial planner. I met mine at a summit, and with her assistance, my wife and I reallocate our $1.7 million assets between a regular IRA and a brokerage account. She has been handling the investment with our agreement and has helped us recover twice as much as we lost. Currently holding steady and gently navigating the market

[@LouisMorganxb3]

That’s impressive! My portfolio has been struggling. Who is your advisor?

[@OscarOwenn]

June Renae Matthysse You are likely to find more information if you look her up online

[@jobob355]

EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing

[@axelbooysen1088]

I feel this is a bit spoiled. You have a wife, kids, money, popularity. You displayed spoiled kid syndrome. Some of us are going through more trauma and we don't even have anything you have.

[@kobushauman3310]

Joe, I don't know if you ever see this. But turn to the Lord Jesus Christ Who is God and His Holy Ghost 🙌🏿 ✝️ 🧎🏽

[@chrish5349]

🥱🥱

[@JackP-dz1sp]

Will soon be forgotten. Hope he sorts the blubbing.

[@kenrehill8775]

How many times did this guy retire?

[@coops23beaver]

That peanut dish needs to go……just not preppy.

[@robday3968]

Those chairs look really uncomfortable. Are they?

[@JackP-dz1sp]

He’s a blubber off camera

[@Mark-jb1fj]

Steroids ruined his brain

[@Marius_vanderLubbe]

Me. mememememememememmemememememememememe me.

[@russellwardale5224]

It's a podcast about him . What did you expect it to be about ya mug.

[@Marius_vanderLubbe]

@@russellwardale5224 Well now you better get him back. The Aussies just cooked your mugs. HAHAHAHAHAHA.

[@davidfife-nm7uy]

Well he is interviewed about his life and his book , so you must be stupid to not understand that you muppet

[@philbrainy2399]

BOTTLEJOB MARLER!!
