I saw the short for this interview and was compelled to find the full story. It did not disappoint, this was an all-around amazing interview, from the stories to the questions asked.
Same here!!! I'm subscribing 👋 for sure!!! It's very eye opening to hear people talk about what really goes on and stuff. I gotta say thank God 🤗for that creep that had done those evil sick things to that child went to prison!!! I think 30 yrs was not enough time and...I shall digress!!! 🤬😔😑 Great interview for sure!!! Everyone please Stay Safe, Stay Strong and Stay Blessed Always!!! 💗🙃😎🇺🇲💯❕️
The short brought me here as well. Thank you Ian for the opportunity to witness Matthew's tale of personal growth and atonement. May you both continue to prosper and be the inspiration for those who are lost to find their own path to redemption.
I love how humble Matt seems. It’s a true miracle how the events of his life unfolded. Clearly he doesn’t take anything for granted. Very inspirational interview. Thank you.
@@JdDelay5150 I just found your content a few weeks ago and your content led me to Ian's and I've hooked. I'm all for the message you put out and I love the prison stories.
This was amazing, a true success story. Turned his life around, and did it with dignity. One thing I loved is he owned up to his crimes and actions, and never made excuses about the system or the punishment. Ian and too many of the interviewees want to wine about injustices, when they are the ones committing the crimes. This guy manned up, took his time, got clean, and is now an example of what living up to your potential looks and sounds like.
I almost didn’t watch this whole podcast because the beginning when he was talking about meth made my stomach turn due to my past experiences with that drug. I’m glad I came back to it and finished listening because, WOW, this might be my favorite one. I really like how Matt is such a humble and normal dude and didn’t try to make any part of his story come across as a “badass”(including his time in prison). He admitted his wrongs and was true with himself and the people listening. Thank you for this!
This is definitely my new favorite episode of the show, what an insane turn of events. Going from somebody that just wanted to keep the high alive and doing what one had to do for that goal, to grounding oneself to becoming one the most humble individuals I’ve heard speak. Putting one’s freedom at even greater risk in order to protect a child he had never met strikes a deep chord in my heart, I wish this gentleman all the best in his years of freedom
I was a wildland firefighter and line EMT for 8 years. I worked with Calfire Con Crew, Wyoming Smoke Busters etc. I was always super impressed with how respectful these guys were (Now I was someone who would sneak them a can of chew out on the line because they were friendly and I didnt always know they were a con crew.) They also were always willing to take the shitty mop up jobs. I would take nearly any con crew over many of the local volunteer firefighters working a fire. I think they are just so greatful to be out. The ones I worked with had great altitudes.
My only friend I still have from my 'childhood' was in fire camp. Fire camp was THE place to be for him because it afforded him the most freedom with the least amount of drama.
Omgggg! This man has the best twitter threads, ever. I immediately knew it when you said “safe” and “California.” Im excited to hear him speak. What wisdom he has to share
I saw a short, didn’t watch it all. I immediately went to Spotify and have been binge listening to the podcast. I did over seven years in prison for aggravated assault on a police officer. Been out almost five years, working the entire time and am a volunteer firefighter.
Probably one of the most inspirational interviews I’ve seen! He is true blue when it comes to making lemonade out of lemons, and he did not just save that one girl …I promise you that Chomo would have not stopped! He’s kind of a hero, at least in my eyes
Out of all the prison interviews I have watched. I often see that the person did not quiet learn their lesson. Wither by the way they describe the situation, subtle downplaying if the situations and other tell signs. This man right here truly regrets and understands what he did and is doing his best to rectify his mistakes. 👏👏👏👏👏
This guy is my age, I think he’s a wonderful, articulate man. We all make mistakes; some just bigger than others. I hope he has an amazing life and continues his righteous path ♥️ God Bless
Yo dude - you may have had to serve 6 years but you saved the life of at least one child and possibly more. Most of these Chomos escalate over time. Not only did you save many children from life long trauma- I have no doubt lives were saved as well. Most dudes in your position would have just tossed the safe in a dumpster.
Powerful story and told very well. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this with the world. He is from the same area I'm from and we even have some mutual friends. Glad to see he is doing well and helping so many people in the community.
My dad retired from ibew. The mindset is ingrained into my being. It hasn't always served me well. I never was a member of a union, but I always had the mentality. I can take a lot of sh!t, but have low tolerance for bull sh!t. Like my Pops always said "you take the good with the bad." I cherish the union mentality I was raised with. Standing up for your fellow workers & being willing to make personal sacrafices for fellow workers is what this nation needs more of right now. BAD! Anyways, keep fighting the good fight!
Wow! A true testament that Good People just sometimes make bad choices. Matt’s really a hero I believe. Probably my favorite interview and I’ve been binging since finding your channel. I’m a Forensic Psych student and Prison Culture intrigues me 😂. Love your content Ian!
Very inspiring man! I am shocked by how many humans (millions?) have chosen a criminal path because of addiction and the need for large amounts of money to fuel these needs - and how large the percentage of people is that originally got these drugs from the 'health' system. I like your attitude and interview style, Ian.
Something Matt said I recognise & have to a degree . The anxiety PTSD hyper vigilant stuff I have & know others who have issues around this after getting out of the military . It took a few years to click with & only happened because I spoke to a counselor who was ex military aswell & I didn't/don't believe in counselling or psychiatrists etc.... she said the way we're trained is to be on alert / vigilant , ready to jump into something constantly all the time , I'd be in bed & hear something minor outside & I knew it's a possum climbing a tree but I'd have to get a torch & a bat & check the yard / perimeter check , couldn't help it . Hear a car at night that I didn't recognise as one of the neighbours / regular car on my street .... go outside & get a visual , look up & down the street & growing up in a group home added another element to the way I lived & protected / guarded my things . Not prison I know , but in a way similar mindsets re-entering civilian life . IDK him saying that struck me . Good on Matt for rehabilitating & growing as a person though. 👏👏
New follower here! Ian you have some great interviewing skills. Great questions, always listens, and makes sure the interviewee tells HIS story. Tremendous work Ian.
@@ianbickCT Same here. Saw a few of your yt Shorts, and one was from this interview, so I just listened to the whole thing. Liked & Subbed. Thx for the content, and good luck to you in growing your channel!
Thanks for this awesome interview, first full one I've watched of yours. I am very interested in his recovery group! I got a PRO against me last year due to a public mental health episode and it terrified me how easy it is to get sucked into and trapped within the legal system, especially since I was in a very fragile unstable place. I have goals to rehabilitate our current vengeance system, and want to help recovering offenders with releasing shame and guilt ❤️ love your work so much. Gives me hope for myself and others ☀️
Its awsome to hear a success story. I was this close so to being a convict as a young man and have close friends that were locked up. I know WAY mare people who cant make it outside than people who made it out.
Having the money and time is the hardest part. Colleges are run like a business especially state colleges. If you can finance it, you have the opportunity. If your serious about it your first steps would be to apply for student loans. There will be an officer worker at almost any college you go to who's job is to help you know all the options. Once you look at that and you can find one that works to get you started you start your program. Once your in your program you handle business in class. You should them start applying for every grant you qualify for. I've known two people who went to school full time and then treated applying for grants like it's your job. Both people had 35-50k USD a year given to them from grants. If it's a grant....you don't have to pay them back. Wean yourself off the loans and onto the grants.
At 35:56, Being In the Club myself Since Sept 3 1994,, WE call it BECOMING SICK & TIRED OF BEING SICK & TIRED... It's When We Hit Our FINAL Bottom.. So PROUD of you My Friend My Brother.. STAY STRONG Stay Safe Healthy and Positive, .. If no one told you they Love you today, I love you ( AA/NA Love )...You are now an Inspiration to Many Many People.. God Bless us All. Amen. Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong
Matt exactly articulated what it was for me trying Meth. Like coming home. I felt human for the first time I could remember. I never understood why people went crazy with it. I used 5 days per week for 2 years and the effects of the neurotoxin became apparent and unpredictable. I had to get out of the state to quit. Mental faculties are compromised with neuropathy in hands and leg recovered after a year....Every day I wake up wishing for another line. I really hope that doesn't follow me into the next life😅
@@stevebanning902right? To each their own I guess. I mean it felt good for a sec but then I got insane anxiety and couldn't even sit still in my apartment like a normal person and ending up wandering around with hunting knives ducted taped inside my pant legs like some kind of autistic Rambo. That wasn't after like one little line though, I orally consumed at least an eighth over a two day period. It did scare me away from doing it again though
@@ianbickCT anytime brother I been sharing this with some buddies from jail. You’re a legend over here in Canada (near Toronto) keep it up I love the show and commissary cook off is fire 🔥
@@ianbickCT thank you. This is the kind of content I love. People honestly talking about experiences I've never had really helps me understand other people.
The Sad, and Outrageous things about this, are that a thief can spend his entire life in prison, where the child abuser, is set free after a minimal sentence, for a crime that truly deserves life in prison. And he will be free in the world to do ? Again, behind closed doors,.... how many more times,....That is,...... if "Karma" never comes knocking. Although, you are not a hero for being criminal sir,..,..YOU ARE A HERO for taking action, + giving the evidence to the police, and more so, for risking a true life sentence, to make sure that that monster was held accountable for his actions to a child. The Whole town + country should of stood behind you, and been up in arms, doing anything they could to help you, at the very least for a reduced sentence. NO amount of material possessions, or grudges, are worth, the the life or safety of a, or many children. And you,...risked Your Life, to help make sure that this hopefully never happens to any child, by him, again. YOU ARE A HERO ! I Congratulate You ! And,... I Thank You ! 👍👍👍
Had a guy come into a party once at my house back in my dumb days. We weren't doing any of that, but apparently he was because he spent an hour in our bathroom. The day after our toilet didn't work. Found out later he was convinced there were agents in our bushes, so he flushed his stash. Then he calmed down and tried to retrieve it . He didn't achieve retrieval but he did achieve totally wrecking our toilet internals lol.
Watch due short story, he gave being shot caller than hearing whole story a huge factor listening whole podcast great story and results of growth of human condition in this Guy. Keep working for those need that help in their lives.
Holy crap. I knew I recognized Matt's story. Matt is my hero. Flawed and all, I fucking love this guy. I never knew what happened to him after testifying. Matt, if you read this, thank you.
He is exactly right in my prison rats sex offenders don't walk with convicts at all like he said you don't slip through if you got those charges either you check in or you get beat til you go
DBC..Daily Blessings Coming! .. Thank You ALL for Everything Everyday!! ... LoL. My dumbass uncle guy was in a prison fire camp too.... I guess he did 7 years for robbing his own parents/my grandparents who raised me and I've been BLESSED MY WHOLE LIFE and I've almost became a felon and went to prison too but didn't Thankfully and Hope/Pray I Never do have to experience Prison! I've done about 2 years County Time... Jail fckn sucks Every TIME! ....
It's sad this country locks people up like this for decades he was obvious an addict he needed to get sober not be locked up. Glad he's doing well awesome interview
THE MOVIE'S NAME IS ( ONLY THE BRAVE ) I BELIEVE IT'S MADE IN 2017. STARING ( MILES TELLER . JOSH BROLIN AND JEFF BRIDGES ). AWESOME MOVIE AND IT'S BASED OFF A TRUE STORY. MIND YOU I'M HARD AS NAILS AND JUST ABOUT AS MAN AS THEY COME BUT THIS ONE DEFINITELY HAD ME IN MY FEELINGS LOL. DON'T LOOK UP THE ACTUAL SITUATION BEFORE SEEING THE MOVIE JUST WATCH THE MOVIE WHENEVER YOU GET A CHANCE IS ALL

@Whilom Forge Thats what the guys I talked to said. It pays one of the highest rates for a prison job and its the easiest way to do time

To give you some perspective they applied for grants 20 hrs a week. Non stop web searching and applying for that money.

@@stevebanning902right? To each their own I guess.

The schedule thing when your out is so true…
It's sad this country locks people up like this for decades he was obvious an addict he needed to get sober not be locked up. Glad he's doing well awesome interview
@@mcnair435 there should be consequences but treating his addiction would make him a useful member of society
THE MOVIE'S NAME IS ( ONLY THE BRAVE ) I BELIEVE IT'S MADE IN 2017. STARING ( MILES TELLER . JOSH BROLIN AND JEFF BRIDGES ). AWESOME MOVIE AND IT'S BASED OFF A TRUE STORY. MIND YOU I'M HARD AS NAILS AND JUST ABOUT AS MAN AS THEY COME BUT THIS ONE DEFINITELY HAD ME IN MY FEELINGS LOL. DON'T LOOK UP THE ACTUAL SITUATION BEFORE SEEING THE MOVIE JUST WATCH THE MOVIE WHENEVER YOU GET A CHANCE IS ALL
Burkley... His family must've had deep pockets
🙏🙏🙏 Shine on, Matthew, Shine on!
