This man is part of the reason I got down and asked Jesus to forgive me, and become my savior.....almost 3yrs ago, I was at a terrible low point in my life, and I stumbled across one of his videos, and it stirred something in me.....I will always feel indebted to this man!....I AM WRONG TO STRONG!!....Thank God for JC testimony!....May God reward you in heaven brother!!.....1 soul at a time, you're changing lives......Salute!!

[@mdlipps]

Great great interview. Both had a good conversational style and the chemistry really helped make this a great conversation. Inspiring, informative and entertaining. Thanks to both of you

[@PrincevincentiusEL]

The choices of his father essentially caused his little baby son to get SA and molested, creating a downward spiral to his baby son to be forced into a life of pain and crime.. All of our actions do and will affect another 😭… especially us fathers out there. Be head strong fellow parents!

[@yesibot.2051]

I wouldn’t be able to live with myself knowing my life choices ruined my kids future. That twinkle in his eye was taken away from him at a very young age, no matter what …, that little boy in him will always be hurting. 😔

First saw his interview on Big hercs fresh out channel

[@mattmorganRnR]

Shout out to you! You have to be the highest paid podcaster in the industry. I’ve never tried to watch a podcast with SO MANY advertisers 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@JayP7.62]

JC! I been watching his channel for years! Watching his channel helped me really think more about consequences of my decisions. Really stopped me from getting back into the street life when times were hard. That fast cash is tempting. Especially when people know I have the knowledge to cultivate mushrooms on a big scale. I was constantly getting offers. To this day I still them every now and then. Screw that! It ain’t worth it. I have a few semesters left to get my degree and I can wait. I’ll be making good money and it’s clean. It feels great not having to look over my shoulder and worry about every noise I hear while asleep at night. Keep the good work guys!!

[@DoomshopMF312]

Finally, someone from Chicago whom I'm familiar with. What a trip, happy to see him getting his much needed postcast moments with the connect of all people. Get this man on Blood on the Razor Wire with Chad next. 🎉 Congrats 💯

[@LastOGAlive-fy2di]

Johnny is always doing solid videos out of a lot of content creator hes very unique and they always talk facts if you want the real connect Johnny is that! hands down! He deserves more recognition!

[@kylenewsome8439]

Johnny PLEASE shut up sometimes. Or just sit there in silence....and just take it in....and then ask a question. Got dang Johnny. Stop interrupting and asking specific non important questions

[@janesmith9006]

Some folks struggle with auditory processing and need to ask clarification questions because they get lost in the sounds. Lots of folks who have a history with drugs have undiagnosed and untreated disorders. People are human.

[@JacaboBlanco]

Every interviewer needs to learn how to be comfortable with silence. Let the answers come. Silence, just like in interrogations is s powerful tool

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!!🦃🦃🦃🦃🍗🍽️🍰🍽️ I really like how you speak, and your openness in the conversations. Youre an amazing content creator, not just asking something scripted and boring/the same old, same old that everybody ask's. Reasons: 1. Youre not glorifying the drugs mentioned whatsoever. 2. You're actually well versed and obviously experienced in the game, not just spewing out things that you heard. 3. You're very humble, and are asking original questions, and have great chemistry with your guest (my first video I've seen by you). Thank you for your efforts in teaching, and entertaining us! 4. Youre not promoting violence in the street like EVERYBODY nowadays. THANK YOU FOR THIS! 5. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. YOU DESERVE THE SUCCESS THAT YOURE STRIVING FOR AND BUILDING FOR YOURSELF. Thank you for your videos. Im interested to see what else your channel offers. If you see this message; pleaee suggest a video that you think id like (or just what YOUR favorite video is)- for me to enjoy.

[@fugaziuzi1509]

The best interview I've ever seen JC do bar none. Excellent job men 👏

[@DAJANEM99]

Jonny, bro. Research. My wife is 1/2 Mexican, her family in Mexico thought the streets in Gringolandia were paved with GOLD! This is what they thought, you could find riches by walking down the street and everyone was rich. Yes, compared to the wages in Mexico we are very rich. Until you have to pay taxes on taxes, with more taxes.

That’s dope, giving “JC” his props.🤙🏽💯,. S/O WRONG 2 STRONG 💪🏾

[@Blunt_Man]

You were asking about gasoline and explosions. The thing about gas is that as a liquid, it's flammable but not explosive. It's the vapors that you actually gotta watch out for in terms of an explosion. A full tank will catch fire, an empty tank that had gas in it will blow up. There's other factors like a need for oxygen for it to ignite and there's a perfect ratio involving the amount of gasoline and empty space full of vapors in the tank too but in general, liquid fuel equals a fire, vapors from the fuel equals an explosion.

[@joshlowe2233]

U mean like a combustion chamber a perfect mix of air to gas ratio produces thrust.. that's why even an empty fuel tanker is highly highly explosive

[@D33Lux]

This channel is unbelievable! Every episode is a straight up banger. JC sounds like a business man that had unfortunate circumstances growing up, being involved with corrupt people. I think, had he had a good father and mentors in life he would have been successful from very young. Keep the great content coming. Cheers!
