This guy scares the shite out of me, just looking at him.

However, he made it out of level 4s in CA by being smart and disciplined.....and lucky. Survived riots and well, being white in the penal system.

He just got started on YT. But he's been enjoyable to listen to.


It's truly interesting to hear from people that just got out of prison. If you ever think you are having some bad luck, you have these two things going for you:

1. You live in the USA (which is like winning the world's lottery)
2. You are not in prison


yt





23and1 has been entertaining too. He fits the Va. Beach persona as I lived there.

Shaun Atwood is another good one. English guy who got locked up in Arizona for moving shitloads of ecstasy.

Most of the baws on here would have been mafia leaders and successful businessmen if they were born and lived outside the United States.

Living and born in wealthy America meant going to college for most of us and turning into corporate drones for the rest of our lives.

College doesn’t brainwash people outside the United States like the way it does here and used to do in the old Soviet Union.

I was watching some of his videos just the other day when I saw them while scrolling down my home page.

He's got some good points and actually some good things about life in general if you can sift through all the prison bullshite. I normally would laugh off taking advice from someone who just got out from doing 10 years, but you can tell he read a lot and compressed a lot of that into some of his opinions now.

A couple of things I took away from some of his videos...

1.) California prison system is extremely racist. As someone who moved here a year ago, I find it's not just the prison system though. Which was strange to me bc being from the south, they love telling us we're racist.

2.) He needs to learn to tell a story better. He always gets sidetracked with stupid shite. Which leads to a 5 minute story taking 20 mins to tell. Some of the sidetracking is ok, but most is just dumb shite. He probably gets this from being in jail and "running eps".

3.) He talks down on people who think going to jail is cool, but admits he used to be like that. However, sometimes he does the same thing.

4.) He could stand to humble himself a bit. He talks as if he's God's gift to earth.

5.) We live in an amazing country. When someone like him can get out and make a good living off of videos mostly about his time in prison, that's pretty amazing.

All in all it's an ok channel. I'm glad to see someone who has paid their debt to society and get it and not continue on that path. It seems like he went through that cycle, but is over it now. Although, when talking about someone institutionalized such as him, you never know. And, after some of his stories, I'm surprised he isn't doing life just based on some things he did while in jail.

Out of a 10 rating, I'd give it like a 4.5, with lots of room for improvement.

Those guys hang out together on YouTube. Inside just speaking to one another would get them killed by their own people
