Alcohol Addiction and Living in RURAL Thailand

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Was great meeting you and your lovely wife brother - I’m sure our paths will cross again 🙏😊

[@ThairishTimes]

An absolute pleasure Ryan. Take it easy brother

[@jaredlandman1532]

Hey Ryan, been a subscriber to your channel for some time now. Really enjoyed the interview - some profound wisdom. You're a great orator!

[@masterofthecranium]

What a thought-provoking guy and a great speaker. He seems like a real force of nature. Brilliant interview Pete.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks mate, yes a fantastic speaker indeed

[@emmanuelespad]

Ryan is the guy to whom you go to talk when you think your life is a mess and he is always there to tell you “it’s ok”. His contents are a soapy massage for the soul. You will feel clean and refreshed. Another spectacular interview! 👍🏼

[@ThairishTimes]

Well said Emmanuele, couldn’t say it any better than that

[@liro_mngbt]

I am so amazed by this. I expected to just be entertained and feel triumphant about The Naked Guru’s story but I ended up having to pause several times to reflect on the things he said regarding the ego. This definitely hit the spot, personally. This is great Pete. Really really great. Thank you so much for this and to Mr Guru, thanks for baring your soul. 🙏

[@ThairishTimes]

When I edited the video I watched it all over again and it was cool to reflect on it too. Glad you liked it Liro

[@LukeyBoy78]

A great man indeed Ryan is. Genuine in person also.

[@briansouza8528]

Hi, and, Thank you both. I am alcoholic. A lucky one to have my sobriety. Today was reminders to stay grateful and in the present. I have decided to retire in Thailand this year. I need to stay aware not to isolate myself. And to stay in prayer and gratitude. What a powerful video listening to two young men give great life advise from their experiences. Staying present ! Again, thank you both. Have a great day.

Great interview Pete. 10/10. Really good to see two of my favourite Thailand youtubers get together and have a chat on camera. Thanks. 🙏🙏

[@ThairishTimes]

Thank you very much mate ☺️☺️☺️

[@450Chicago]

Good interview. It's nice to hear someone get the chance to talk and not be constantly interrupted. Good job

[@packageism]

I like this guy. He doesnt speak nonsense and honest about his issues. Gratitude is an excellent way to achieve happiness in ones life.

[@bdmenne]

This guy sees himself, others and life accurately. Refreshing.

[@andytillman7739]

Hi Pete what a incredible vlog i been on the same journey all my life i am 64 now as Ryan. I learnt more from him about myself in 30 minutes than I have in the last 40 years. Thank you

[@ThairishTimes]

Nice one Andy, glad you liked it and fantastic to hear that you learned something from it

[@Wilko11]

That was a brilliant chat. Definitely one of your best. It was good to hear a much more posItIve spIn on rural lIfe. And while on the wonderful Island of Koh Chang. 👍 😊

[@jimmyboysmovies1972]

Such an open and honest interview Pete , Ryan is very candid and fair play to him in choosing a simple life to live. Addiction comes in all shapes really from drinking ,gambling to shopping ….knowing you have a problem is the 1st step in rehabilitation and he done so well in knowing he had an issue and taking the steps to help self . Ryan is spot on Pete in what he said about you. You allow the people you are interviewing to finish the question you asked and that’s what makes what you and Nune do so well 👏👏 I will check his channel out

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks Jimmy, it was a cool experience to listen to Ryan talk so candidly. More interviews to come mate

[@lesterbangs3417]

Kudos to both guys for an absorbing interview.

[@ThailandThomas]

Nice interview with Ryan the Naked Guru, he is a very smart well spoken guy. Love his Channel! Good to see you in the moment Pete and just going for it and asking if he would do an interview. Looking forward to more.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks Thomas as the saying goes “if you don’t ask you don’t get”

[@ian-wu2bb]

@@ThairishTimes apart from the fact my name is not Thomas I agree🙈🙈

[@Hidy_Ho]

At 19:45, asking back the question to the questioner is a great technique to 1) try to understand the "question behind the question", 2) buy yourself additional time to formulate the answer and 3) also to make sure that your answer/reply is in sync with the questioner's expectation, IMHO. It's a great interviewing technique. 😃 Ryan is an interesting guy for sure ... not everyone (including myself currently) can live the way he does. Also, in Thailand, it would also require a strong, understanding and trustworthy local life partner.

[@ThairishTimes]

Well pointed out, yes it’s a great strategy when being interviewed for sure

[@1972pd]

Great chat ...really enjoyed what Ryan had to say 👍

[@ThairishTimes]

Glad you liked it David

[@graceydez6199]

I didn’t know his struggle with addiction, respect him even more now. Great guy. Thanks for the interview.

[@ThairishTimes]

You’re very welcome

[@BrassLock]

Pete, another bloody marvellous interview! Its great that you followed up your idea of crossing the road right away and introducing yourself to Ryan, and asking for the interview. We've all benefitted from this interesting discussion as a direct result. March on ahead and "continue to unfold", it's lovely to see your channel develop with outstanding interviews. Ryan sure has a wonderful ability to be succinct, yet in-depth with his answers. His mind has clarity, which I find a most attractive aspect of his personality.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks Dav, he who dares wins I suppose. I’m glad Ryan shared his story here. Yes his mind does indeed have clarity which many people don’t possess

[@choopa1670]

ryan has the knowledge of a person who has lived a few lives...very down to earth and an inspiration to stay humble..great chat fella's

[@NickyDunn]

Great interview. Ryan is so right. Sometimes just answering someone with kindness. Knocks them right back. I love his channel. I am grateful for youtube and people's beautiful content. It takes me away from the cold and wet here in the UK. It takes some balls to put yourself out there for the world. I try and give a little. I do not have lots. But more than many people.

[@ThairishTimes]

Well said Nicky, it takes bravery to put yourself out there but like everything else it gets easier with practice. It’s not for everybody though. You have to have thick skin

[@4KChillVibes.]

ryan is a great inspiration to a lot of people, straight up no bullsh;'t, and very perseptive individual. great job on the interview you really got ryan to open up and the dialouge flowed very well

[@ThairishTimes]

Glad you liked it, it was a pleasure to do it

[@wong-moores]

My genuine two favourite KZbinrs together. This video is absolute gold. Love you both, thank you for such amazing content 🙏

[@ThairishTimes]

Wow thanks Darren 🙏🙏🙏

[@metalextras]

Ryan is humble, and his vlogs are educative for a new parents too... He carves his own niche brilliantly, just like yours Pete...

[@ThairishTimes]

Ryan sure is an interesting guy and a great Dad. He does a great job with his channel too

[@williamhartz8707]

So true about negative events in life can be a “detour” towards a better future. -And we are all in a process of being a better human being. At age 70 years young, I definitely find myself more understanding and patient ( less judgemental) ) towards others than when I was in my 20’s & 30’s. And living in Thailand’s countryside has given me a chance to be closer to nature -slow down a bit and be away from the rat race of a big city or be so materialistic We humans definitely go through different stages in our lives so at my age, you can have empathy towards a teenager or young adult when they make a mistake in life. We all make mistakes but must learn from them 🙏 Good interview, Pete.

[@ThairishTimes]

This is a fantastic comment. People seem to calm and be more open minded with age and wisdom. You sound like you’re living a good life and have a good mindset too

[@martyc1837]

A perfect setting for a great interview, Pete this is your niche! Good stuff 👍

[@gerd77]

Pete that was really an impressive interview with Ryan. He spoke so fast that it was difficult for me to follow him. I had to stop and back up several times to understand his thinking. It was an incredibly profound conversation from which I benefited greatly. I really admire people like that because they live in the here and now and don't follow the mainstream. I also have great respect for him that he managed to find his way out of the alcohol spiral with his own will and to redefine his life. It doesn't seem important to him that he's great, it's important for him to be happy and content with whatever situation he's in. Some people in the world should learn a lesson from that. Thank you Pete for this video (--> 10K)! Greetings from Sattahip - Gerd 🌈🍀💖🌴🌈

[@ThairishTimes]

Brilliant analysis Gerd, I have been fascinated about the here and now ever since I read the book The Power of Now. I heard Ryan talk about it before so I was keen to find out more about it and share it here

[@michellemoolcharan1228]

A grand interview with Ryan. 👏👏👏to both of you. Ryan is humble, incredibly intelligent and a classic example of a fabulous role model. He has unique philosophies on living a decent authentic life with no regrets which I am gaining much strength from. And I know that thousands like me feel the same. Both of you present inspirational vlogs and I love your channels. May you continue to transcend all barriers in providing us with hope for the future. Cheers guys

[@DeanConnolly-ke8rp]

EXCELLENT interview.. absolute priceless answers..truely top draw Q & A . BRILLIANT Thairish times..

[@pattraynor3615]

He comes across as a lovely honest fella, as he said drink and depression are invariably linked, some of his vlogs are great and different from the normal vloggers

[@eileengale7661]

I really like your interviews Pete and how you roll. I also like Ryan and his perspectives and how perfectly you two came together. Thanks for sharing - I am blessed even more for having listened to all of this. You two are excellent examples of living in the new ways. Thank you and keep on keeping on! ✌🏼 ☀️🌴 P.S. And do I EVER want to get back to beautiful Thailand beaches. 😍 Big time!! 😁😂

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks for your kind words Eileen. It was cool that I ran into Ryan and got to share his experiences on this channel. I’ve some cool interviews coming up too just need to edit them. Thailand’s beautiful beaches are still waiting for you !!

[@llttf]

Your best interview yet. Your interview style blends well with Ryan's ability to give interesting and well thought out answers.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks mate 🙏🙏

[@stevens8785]

Thanks Pete. I love Ryan's channel. A very interesting man. I could just sit there all day and say nothing and listen to what he has to say. I am sure you felt the same way and it certainly makes your role as the interviewer pretty simple.

[@ThairishTimes]

Glad you enjoyed it. Ryan’s story really is cool

[@jeffedwards5028]

That was so great...i admire Ryan and his family so much...such a wonderful happy family. Jeff

[@TimTimTim501]

Fantastic interview. Wish it was longer. 👍

[@nicknewman7848]

I am getting a lot of value from this chat.. It really gives me perspective on the medium and my interaction with it. I've watched both these channels as I aspire to live outside the UK and Thailand is on the list of possible options because I enjoyed travelling there in the past. When I watch these videos it gives me a little taste of being there, reminds me of what the benefits are and builds my confidence to be bolder with my choices. Cheers guys.

[@ThairishTimes]

Super comment Nick thanks. Best of luck with everything in the future

[@PVillapah]

Great to see you guys come together! Love both your contents. Agree with Ryan, discovering your addication or ego is the first step, and when you start to let go then everything will gradually fall into place, nicely 😀! Have gratitude for Mother universe and she will nourish you 🙏

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks!! This was a great day. I had no idea Ryan would be on Koh Chang. It’s funny how things work out sometimes

Again, every time I watch your youtube I think I should admit I always get something like a great and deep profound lesson from people whom you interviewed. Thank you very much for a great job you have been doing. Keep up doing a good job.

[@ThairishTimes]

Wow that is very cool

[@dottieparker7274]

How funny, I was thinking of asking if you knew Ryan and here you both are! Yes, I like him a lot. It's so refreshing to listen to someone who is so frank, but gentle at the same time. So nice you both met!

[@ThairishTimes]

That was a great day interviewing Ryan

[@ThailandFoodWalk]

The story at 23.12 was great. A lot of ppl try to project their unhappiness on others because they mistakenly believe that they are invisible on the net. However, respect to this guy for owning up to and accepting he had issues. Having taken the step of taking responsibility for his own actions something few do these days he is now on his way to solving his issues.👍👍👍

[@ThairishTimes]

Well said mate. Absolutely agree

Hello Pete: Heading back to the States on 4 Feb .Thanks for all help and information. I’m going to try to return again in October. I’ll be following you in the meantime. I believe You Tube Channels such as yours are more informative than FaceBook Groups.

What a delightful way to spend a half hour. I loved listening to you two wise gentlemen talking and sharing ideas. Actually one of the reasons I like Thailand so much is because it seems to attract so many interesting people. It was a wonderful interview Pete.

[@vbrandi7928]

I thought the comment that you have the capacity to listen was spot on. That is why I follow you - esp re these interviews. I don’t find many YTube Thai bloggers doing this. I enjoy the superficial vlogs but honestly they are “me too s” - entertaining but forgettable. For someone considering to spend extended time in Thailand, your content is meaningful to me ! I have already learned which soi has a cheap 40 baht buffet !

[@ThairishTimes]

Thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoy the content. We like to show expat lifestyle, real people and real life☺️

[@davidb2206]

I really like this guest's words, attitude, and practices regarding free speech or criticism. KZbin itself should really adopt the same policy. Personally, I would not delete (or 'ghost,' which is unethical and dishonest) unless it was vulgarity, communicating a threat (an actual crime), or an ad hominem personal libel of my son or wife. The rest is just 'water off a duck's back, pixels on a screen, that do not affect me or my life at all. They and their insignificance vanish with the same day's sunset. I really like this man's mature ego learning and wisdom. And honesty and transparency. He, like me, has concentrated on peace. We would be great friends if in the same neighborhood. Total respect. Best wishes.

[@Sagan_Starborn]

isn't that break in the flow of the interview in 18:15 such a perfect way to demonstrate that need to be in the now and not let ego govern your reactions. It's like the world wanted to demonstrate how far your circle of control extends and what you can best do with it. I feel a big buddhist philosophy vibe in your message today.

[@ThairishTimes]

Batteries were about to die unfortunately and ai really wanted to bring Ryan’s story to you guys

I always feel better when I listen to him and I am so jealous of his lifestyle I'm retired now but I would've loved to have done what he did living of the land and the simple life with his amazing family.

Ryan's an interesting fella - I've been a subscriber to his channel for a couple of years. He's always seemed to me to be an irrepressible optimist, and I really didn't know anything about his struggle with alcoholism, although I did know he ran a few bars and is a saxophonist - guess I wasn't paying attention and didn't make the connection.
