    Cracking guest, I like how you can listen to this podcast and sounds like he is just having a normal everyday chat. No hype, no oversell, no drama. Just telling his story straight up and direct.
    Wish him all the best

    This is the type of fella should be going round schools instead of ex drug or steroid abusers. Kids allready know prison is a bad place and they shouldn’t sell or take drugs. I done see no one going into schools explaining if you work hard and do good in life this is where you can be what a smart young man and I believe he’s done his own thing and wouldn’t have needed help from his father to get to where he is well done young man your father must be proud.

    Of course he has had an easier life than most because of his dad but by the sounds of it he’s respectful and appreciative and doesn’t want to live off his dad.
    If we all had parents to help us out when we needed it we would all love it but we don’t but no need to hate on someone who has.
