STATE OF MIND with MAURICE BENARD: KOUNTRY WAYNE

I was very honored to sit down with Kountry Wayne. We talked about his life growing up, his stand-up comedy which I hear is brilliant. We also talked about his 10 kids and how important it is to be a father, what it's like being on the verge of worldwide stardom, and not to mention his ridiculous amount of social media followers. Go look him up!

Blessings to you Maurice Bernard and Kountry Wayne. I’m a GH fan who watches GH every day,and I’ve also been a daily viewer of Kountry Wayne skits. A wonderful surprise and experience to see you both together. I would love to see Wayne pop up in Port Charles…

Great conversation between Maurice and Kountry Wayne....❤❤

[@sethmorgan833]

When he said "knowledge helps you grow, not knowing knowledge helps you grow. Because when you don't know, you'll figure out another way." Wow that's deep, I felt that.

I hear him about the small town. I grew up in one with one stop light. LOL TV and books saved me from thinking that's all there was. I also love his faith in Jesus. That faith will always get you through. What a guy. Good interview.

[@MBStateOfMind]

Thanks

[@NanciFranceVaz_artist]

A little thumb slipped there. I meant to say a few more things. When I was going through a very dark. In my life, I wondered why I should live tomorrow. I was heartbroken over a relationship that ended and I believe I was about 31. When I went into my bedroom at night, there was a bright light, and I thought I was dreaming, or I was imagining things. But I wasn’t. I can honestly say that happened to me two times in my life when I was so depressed and desperate and just didn’t want to wake up the next day, the same bright light lit up my bedroom while I was praying and the next day the heart pain subsided, and I was able to go on. I don’t go to church all the time, but I do believe in God and I know it was real.

[@MBStateOfMind]

❤❤❤thank you

[@marlenehall7950]

Two of my favorite guys. Good conversation. I’ve watched KW everyday since the pandemic. He brought me to State of Mind this morning. I grew up watching GH and your handsome charismatic character Sonny. Your transparency with mental illness spoke to me and made you a real person. So happy I’ve found your platform.

[@MBStateOfMind]

Thanks ❤

[@purple_bboop5392]

[@NanciFranceVaz_artist]

Loved the rawness of you both. The back stories of when you were going through a dark. I especially love the story about going into the church, and the priest wouldn’t let you in because you were going through a dark episode. Interesting. 100% believe in God as well.

[@MBStateOfMind]

Thanks

Wayne is the GOAT 👏👏

[@sandrablanchard9198]

Good afternoon

[@karynpitt3148]

Loved this interview. KW and his transparency is inspiring. His truth about his early life and his faith will always be uplifting to many people who watch. I first saw KW on social media years ago and I could not stop laughing. Some video I watched over and over 😂I'm very proud of him. MB memory of not being allowed in the church for whatever reason I truly believe was an integral part adding to your emotional state of mind of not being enough. I know you don't need me to say it lol I just needed to. So glad you removed yourself from the conflicting teachings within a faith created for nonjudgmental love and peace and acceptance. KW is the dopest comedian and artist. Thank you.

[@gigitadych8876]

I was agreeing a lot with some things Wayne was saying. Especially when he said you have to speak your truth and keep it real let them know who you are. Because with me when I respond to people sometimes with something funny they say that was a quick response. Then I tell them I didn't nickname myself the comeback queen for nothing. Also, I liked when he said God is the reason for all my seasons. I just discovered him on a clip from The Sherri show. Then I watched his Netflix special. Funny, Funny, Funny.
