Dissolving a business partnership but still being mates speaks volumes for both of your character. That's awesome that Ben was so supportive, and sometimes even if it's not what the plan started out being you have to support awesomeness when you see it...

That was a treat having Ben back on your channel! I've watched from the beginning and remember the backstory. It was nice to see his life and hear how much the two of you mean to each other. True friends are meant to be loved and treasured. Saving a friendship, and honoring a business deal, speaks to the quality of your character. Jamie, I wish you safe travels and a speedy recovery. 🤝

I think most of us who watched from the start understand about Ben. And have seen you host him several times since you bought out his share. It's great that you two have such a good friendship to this day. Alot of times a business relationship can kill friendships. But I think Ben is always welcome on Parley and it's great he seen your potential and passion to create Parley Revival and share your journey with all of us.

Thanks to Ben for his service. To be a Seal is even more reason to respect him and thank him for his hard work and dedication. That was really great of him to give you his blessing and financial support. I hope he's rewarded ten times over.

There are two kinds of friends, One you can call at 2 AM and say I need bail. Shore thing were and how much.They don't ask why, the other you call and they ask WHF did you do, I can't help bro. If you have good friends that believe in keeping good you found a soul mate, guys don't talk about it nor hide what you need to hear from them. Protect your buddies, could be your kids, worker,biker or someone that helped along the way. Ben is one of them good paths you guys were on Keep it real..

What a joy to travel alongside. I wish I could support you financially but I’m really hoping that supporting you by watching all your videos will bring something to you via Utube. Many blessings to you and the crew for making these videos and bringing this old man around the world with you. Many thanks🙏🙏

About two years ago one I discovered I could not see out of one eye. It was like the eye was coated by vaseline. It was a cataract. Had a cataract operation (took a total of about ten minutes) and now have 20/20 vision in that eye. Amazing difference as I'm sure Jamie will find out. I'm sure he'll be back on board soon.
