This man is the Marlon Brando of the Chef's world. A rebel, a genius from a young age at his craft, and a man of conviction and resolve that's often confused by the public as crazy, delusional and insane. But in all honesty, no one knows the artist more than the artist themselves, and to the artist, that's all that matters. This man stands alone on that pedestal

This is one of the deepest 16 minute interviews I've seen. Pretty epic but says a lot, being a chef is just a vehicle for the man that MPW has become.

[@f50koenigg]

Marco is such a great speaker. He has good pauses that will always leave waiting for the next word.

One of the most compelling personalities in the world. Watching him cook on any of the many KZbin videos is like watching a great painter at work and he's incredibly introspective.

[@Dinglebarriez]

This actually brought me to tears. What an eloquent man.

[@adamwillis6975]

I was nodding almost the entire way through this. Only the few who have endured terrible trauma and hardship in their childhoods grow up to be different people, so very much unlike the rest. You can tell that even though he was a 90 hour a week chef, he was also a very deep thinker, a deliberator and thought about life in great depth when he was not involved in his craft. I fully understand what he means when you stop something that you gave your life to, then it ends and you are now at the mercy of life and reality, and all of a sudden that life and reality come at you like a deluge and years of thoughts, feelings, emotions, memories etc just take you by storm. What was once a tough, controlled and steadfast exterior becomes porous and permeable until you have no choice than to just let the dam break and let life take you on the very rocky you road you have been afraid of for so very long. Very humble man, lot of integrity and deeply insightful mind.

[@calzone-snz]

yup. This makes sense, especially when starting a new chapter in your life.

[@stephenstrang590]

Beautiful. Truly beautiful words.

[@sciencelabvideosl7558]

Marco has a voice for reading audiobooks. So soothing.

[@Zach-sx8cm]

what he did in putting the phone down and writing down those memories is astounding considering it did it on his own. thats just the thing you are supposed to do when going through mental health therapy to deal with emotions properly. i just love his honesty. the reason we all see character in Marco is absolutely because he had childhood trauma and rather than live with it, looked at it. Bravo, Marco. I know firsthand how hard it can be and its wonderful to see others dealing with their issues and gaining so very much from it.

[@TH-xr4uj]

Wow. MPW opens up the deepest wounds of his life and so generously gives us all a life lesson on how we might look at our own lives.

[@cgavin1]

Can we just give a nod to Brendan O'Connor for letting Marco speak largely uninterrupted? I think he's the sort of fella that doesn't get to talk to people like this very often (in his professional capacity) and he could see that when you get someone like Marco and he actually WANTS to talk to you, then you step back and let it happen ..

[@po3tik1]

Such an honest and candid interview. Marco is very charismatic and I like how he always takes his time to explain things in depth. You notice it when he teaches people his cooking techniques also... but it seems to have spread out in everything he does.

[@garytanjingda8594]

I love how he takes his time slowly to talk and make sure his point is made. That's how remarkable he is.

[@menamgamg]

***** Seems to be an awesome person, but also someone you don't want to get on your wrong side :P

[@joshkresnik6402]

I don’t think I’ve been a fan of his any longer than a year maybe but something drew me to him for some reason, his mannerisms, his life story, I wasn’t sure at first, and then I saw this video and I’m sitting here almost in tears because I lost my dad at 6, I’m 30 now coming to the threshold of a lot of things that have accumulated over the last 25 years and taking notes from this video and from my memories of my dad, realizing just what it is that’s so appealing about him, and now I’m more immersed in him and his life story than I’ve ever been

You could literally hear a pin drop. I always judged Marco as a typical moody chef. But his insight in this interview completely changed my opinion of him and I admire his courage to speak from the heart. It proves that you never know what someone’s journey is or what they may be going through at any given time.

[@briancox7875]

Marco is such a great man. He is a hero to me. I love everything about him. He has a brilliant mind and is such a wonderful speaker. I could listen to him all day. He oozes class. To meet him and shake his hand would be an absolute honor. To have dinner with him, particularly if Marco had cooked it, would be a dream come true. He's just that guy you wish you knew and that you could call, "friend." I have nothing but respect for the man. MWP for president of the world.

[@bblaylk]

I could not possibly agree more, nor have written it any better. All true. Well said.

[@HP-rz7ew]

10:16 you can see how much that still effects him, huge part of the character he has and is, feel really sorry for him.

[@FhCasberg]

Ireland seems to really suit him, like it's where his dual nature of being a son of a tough, no-nonsense working class northerner man and a loving and caring italian woman somehow meets. Since he's always so honest and frank, him telling how he has always been treated with kindness and respect in that country is touching, you can sense how at ease he is in this interview, as soon as he walks in. I liked the host and audience.

[@limeykl]

The sign of a true gentleman is one who is comfortable in his own skin and not afraid to acknowledge his “humble “ background and show pride in his family and especially his mum;) my own mum told me “never let anyone think they are better than you”. He’s a lovely lovely man.

I fall in the 2nd category just like him. I had a dark upbringing, im still a creature of the dark. I suppress and slowly broil my insides. It's the only way I know to "heal" or "solve" the abyss of pain in me. His glass analogy made me shed a tear. And I haven't had those in a decade. It struck something in me and I wasn't expecting that. I thought this was gonna be just another fascinating story from one of the greatest chef in history. But wow he was more than that. I will use that glass analogy with my therapist for sure and I'll probably never look at cooking the same way again. I would sell my kidney to have 10 minutes with this man.

11:45 the glass cup analogy. one of the most brilliant things I've seen on youtube. I gotta say that hit me deep. I've lost my father at 6 as well. I just had a conversation with my mother and I realized as clear as a day that I've been living behind the invisible glass cocoon my whole life as well, stuck in a rut and suffering, using my creativity and work as «the greatest painkiller». I've never even travelled properly or had a vacation. remarkable. his AK/AmK (Mars and Sun respectively) are placed in Jyeshta nakshatra (constellation) just like mine, and Mars is in Gandanta point as well... for those following vedic astrology.

But now I've seen this interview, I'm speechles 😬 So much passion, no eh or ah's. Just straight to the point, but also great to see that this man has a big heart. Always humble and never forgets where he came from. Respects the country side and even he is stopped with Michelin stars, he is way above the elite 🤦‍♂️😂, but respects nature as most important, because he is just a cook! I hope this man will be for a very long time here with us. Im not a cook, but he definitely has motivated me to be strong and never give up! Do what you like to do and do it because you want to do it. But always keep you're eyes and mind open if things change, accept it, go on with you're life, and never look back.

Listening to Marco I could not agree more & listening description of what the restaurant life & food was like in 70s & 80s brought my memory & feelings way back to a forgotten time with great memories. Love listening to Marco it's like listening to a story great imagery feeling, joy & empathy ❤

[@12Mojo]

at 10:00 you can just feel the emotion coming out of Marco when his mother was mentioned when she passed away at 6 years old. Honestly I wouldn't have bought that up, you can tell by the tone and the way Marco is talking, he was ready to pour his heart out. T . T

[@M_Sonata]

The glass cup illustration, my God, it was so profound. I almost broke down listening.

[@tmakalpha1]

I've watched a lot of MPW this year due to various lockdowns, seen his early videos when he was a rock star chef, and it's been very intriguing to see him turn into a sort of Zen master of sorts. It doesn't feel like he planned it to be that way, but even from his earliest appearances, you can tell he's a person of many emotions, some barely hidden, but he'd infused it into his food. Seeing him put it into words... well, makes me speechless and contemplative about how I've lived my own life. Thanks for uploading this. P.S. mandatory Knorr's joke: like this comment, don't like it, it's up to you. There's no recipe to life.

That was a remarkable interview. I never suffered great tragedy but I understand the concept of the glass, not being a part of the world that envelops you. I wish him nothing but continued success. I hope he mends with Ramsay. They're both of an age and station I think that would make it possible, and extending an olive branch leads to greater spiritual and emotional growth.
