Ben thanks for having me mate! Really enjoyed this.. keep smashing it 👊🏽
you are a legend. and highly relatable being a 33 year old car guy myself growing up in Ruislip and Harrow
Legend!
Cool to hear your story, great to chat to you earlier this year at Demon Tweeks.
This was soooo sick to see Jamie as raw as this. Like even just seeing him swear and just talk fully naturally as he can't on his channel is super refreshing. Bro already got my sub but this channel got me one aswell
Instantly added on watch list soon as I seen Jamie the legend
I found Jamie on YT when he was at around 20k subs, instantly knew he’d grow based on his buzzy personality and lack of ego, it was so refreshing to witness someone who, rather than hide behind a poker face and downplay how good his feature cars were.. actually appreciate them and let his true personality out, it takes guts to do that. The geezers a top man and deserves the best in not just YT but life itself, brilliant representative of the UK car scene as a whole👍🏼
Skin colour should never matter.
Jamie, Ricky and Dmo have the best personality's that's why they're top of the game 💯
27 minutes in and I have to say that Jamie is like the West London version of me if I didn't have any restraint. I'd love to meet this guy because I think his enthusiasm would rub off and I could really do with that right now. Sounds like such a lovely genuine guy and I wish him all the best in continuing his journey to success.
The energy and vibe Jamie gives off in his videos are the reason why his channel is soo successful 🙌
Low Origin or Monky London would make for a great podcast!
Been into motors my entire life, from ford mk1 xr2’s to now as a 40 year old , motors are still heavily a big part of me and Jamie’s energy is unreal and for the likes of me keeps the scene alive! , no arrogance, brilliant attitude and appreciative of all types of builds. Top lad 👌🏻
Really enjoyed this one - Listening to Jamie recall his youth, his mentality and then show his appreciation for the journey and remain humble. He is a damn good guy and someone I think you'd be ever so lucky to have in your circle or as a very close friend
I watch a whole bunch of UA-cam channels and OG is my favourite. Look forward to each upload and love all of it. Something special about your channel Jamie! 1M next and well deserved!!
Stumbled across officially gassed cos he had a big power corsa on his channel and was m so glad I did. He’s gone from strength to strength since then and I truly enjoy his content. It’s about time someone sat him down for a heart to heart, superb ❤
I totally remember seeing Jamie in Rickys video "back in the day". Jamie hasnt changed at all and is still one on the most totally passionate, down to Earth youtubers out there.
As long as you keep putting videos out people will keep watching Jamie.
Top chap :)
Whats the title of the video?

This 420bhp Mercedes (A45 AMG) is a *WEAPON* / LivingLifeFast

So humble and down to earth keep it up Jamie
Did not know jamie used to be a HGV mechanic before Officially Gassed. Thats awesome..
best car channel on tube good lad straight talking no bs that's why it works
Followed officially gassed since he was around 16k mark so I’ve watched his channel grow. Finally nice to hear him swear after all these years lol.
Amazing chat, what an insight to Jamie’s rise.
Enjoyed that thoroughly 🙌🏽😁
Been a fan of Jamie back from his golf R, and less that 5k subs, and he's smashing it now, congratulations Jamie
You and me both!
I miss the real Ace Cafe days, I had a white 2009 Leon Cupra with 420bhp back then, the plate was R999CUP used handbrake drift around that roundabout so much that people thought my front wheel drive car was rear wheel drive 😅
What a guy! Follower since 2018 here and still going strong 💪 Keep going my guy! 👊
loved this one , id love to see monky london on the podcast
we'll see what we can do!
Yeah jamie is a good guy to watch his energy and excitement driving the cars and other videos keeps me watching . He always tries to reply to his viewers when other car channels do not or reply with cheeky smart arse comments back . Even a tumbs up emoji back is better than nothing from any other channel . Plus he is always smiling as he has the best job ever driving cars and enjoying life . Im a huge fan of the channel and as long he keeps doing everything at his level I will always watch ..... 😊😊😊
Member of the 35 year old club here too! Great stuff.
Such a top bloke, I like to think I would stay as grounded and humble as Jamie if I had his success but being perfectly honest I probably wouldn’t. 😂
Genuine guy, not over the top but great at what he does. Always follow OG , one of the best if not the best on YT 👌😎
Another great one with another top guest! Love Jamie and love OG!
Met Jamie at one of his O.G battles such a sound and real guy .
Great pod cast
Great interview and you can see how driven and enthusiastic Jamie is about what he does, you can also see the subtle change in him since becoming a dad 👍🇬🇧
I had no idea he was that age! Same as me so makes him so much more relatable. Quality
Met Jamie last year in December at caffeine and machine, had a really nice long chat with him as it was bollock freezing so was pretty quiet 😂 such a nice down to earth bloke with a genuine passion and love for the things he’s made
Nice one!
What I have love about this podcast was another UA-camr Ricky pushing Jamie to do UA-cam. Now they are both successful!
Super humble guy so nice to watch how he started and to where he’s at now is incredible. Watched his Honda build from day as I’m a Honda guy myself. Massive respect for what he’s doing coz it ain’t easy. Well done Ur the number guy to watch nowadays. LLF us to be my number 1 but when u start selling everything it becomes boring and predictable. Keep doing what ur doing bro
What a genuine top bloke
I have never felt like I can relate to someone so much as I just have watching this. That’s actually madness. 🤯
Sonuga.... Nigerian heritage....wow. Well done Sir and I wish you all the best.
As always another fantastic episode, Ben. I feel like Jamie has always been such a humble person throughout his ongoing journey. Can I make a suggestion & say maybe Perhaps Imran from Evolve Automotive or Mabz from NV Motorsport would be 2 very good guests ?
Cant lie the cagiva mito in my opinion is the superior bike to the rs125
Quality this as watched Jamie since he first started and remember him on living life fast. Good to see a insight of how he got to be officially gassed hats off Jamie well done your mum would definitely be proud bro
was just thinking this. Was the first time I see him too. The growth since then is crazy.
Great podcast Ben! Been hooked on this one.
Jamie a true inspiration, keep up the good work!
this was excellent, real honest interview. Proper good host and journalist really connects with the subject, i mean that sincerly.
Jay, top top guy so watchable. Been following him, Ricky, MSB, Mat for a long time and seeing their and particularly Jay's growth is superb. Also loved hearing about the cagiva and Aprillia days. Proper nice guy. 👌
Couldn't agree more!
Another great listen while on the job, keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
Jamie is such a good guy! Keep smashing it on your channel
Nice little podcast for the drive to work cheers lads
Thanks dude
Love this guy remember all the early tdi vids theyre always a ripper😂
Fellow rs 125 owner here, also managed to get a year ban! 😂 insurance was a nightmare after.
I'm absolutely loving this channel.
Feels like Colin and Samir for UK car UA-cam. Fantastic work mate.
Wow, thanks!
I’m from Nottingham and I remember aces cafe !! Mad times !!
What a great interview!
I've never been a huge Jamie fan even though I've subscribed to O.G. a long while back, but this interview made me appreciate him more
We love ya brother. Thanks for making good content.
Really enjoyed this one, Jamie is a force!
Loved this Podcast Jamie is living the dream and is so passionate
What a great interview!! Cheers
Ahh man. Love the Ace Cafe! Would go there as a kid with my dad, and still go once a month.
Jamie is a legend. Loving the Podcast, keep on grinding boys!!!

Rockin the 1320 hoodie as well 👌
Interesting video, never met Jamie but he seems very genuine, rate it! 👌🏻
Yes jamie, watched you from the start man, keep doing what your doing, smashing it bruva
Such a sound guy my favorite Motor UA-camr for sure
Love Jamie and his channel he's top tier brilliant
Very good pod cast
Great interview 👍🏻
What a sound, down to earth guy!! Had me laughing loads.
Great stories. Enjoyed that.
Although this hasn't helped with my Monday morning productivity... 😉
See you next Monday!
I really enjoyed this. I thought i was late to Jamies channel mid 20k, to see him now at 750k is insane. Really well deserved. And great podcast host by the way, you have the right skills for that 👌
Thanks a ton!
What a guy. Would’ve time Jamie on a top gear or something along those lines. Completely relatable to everyone
Great video both👏
Really enjoyed this banger of a podcast episode, being from Nw London I feel & relate to Jamie and his run with his OG channel sonce the early days. Here's to that million subs, he still has my supoort all the way and Ben also!! 😅👍 I'm gassed for the future, congrats on the little one. 👏😅
Glad you enjoyed it
@@RoadToSuccessOfficialPodcast Thanks dude, top work, you get some great guests on, and onto more awesome episodes. 👍
I fuck with Jamie for real.
He really seems to be down to earth and he looks super cool too..
Hopefully one day I'll get the chance to meet you..
And BTW Jamie. No parent knows how to parent the first time around.
You'll be alright. 😊
I think he is straight mate - but worth a try.
JC, mate, put it away. 😖
Mate I haven’t watched your videos for a while but really loved some of the stuff you said. Cagiva mito 7 gears arrow exhaust 😂 I had fiesta rs turbo with a dump valve only drove it once sunroof dropped out. Saw it for sale a couple of years ago for over 6 k
High level guests these days 🎉
Great episode 🫡 love to see the tfjj
Nice to see Jamie swearing just being a normal bloke 👌
Jamie's a top cat... lovely guy and so humble......
Man had an A45 AMG when he was 18?... where tf was he getting his scrilla from...sellin brick?!!
Been a subscriber of Jamie's since the A45 days, followed his whole journey. What a lovely lad, and well deserving of his success. So much more so than some other names, [that i wont mention] in the scene 😉. If you know, you know.
Such as...
I'm new to this channel but judging from the fact he grew up in the Cotswolds, I assume bank of mum and/or dad
Yeah Officially Gassed and Monkey London are top G on tuned car videos with hard driving.
Big up Rayners Lane Crew
Keep it up Ben, great content on the channel
Appreciate it!
Great pod again Ben! Jamie is the goat 🐐
That's a bit harsh, mate.
This is wild! Deja vu😂 cagiva mito/ 916 rep. Bailey dv26 dump valves, chased outa car meets. I miss the nougties🙈what a story tho. Keep smashing it bro, keep hustlin.
Classic!
You said people come to your podcast because they know.... and so on.. Actually I keep coming back because you dig up cool, funny, and interesting car stories. Some times I end up laughing, other times I go wow or cool man!!!
I appreciate that!
Good stuff guys 🤙
I love Jamie! What a nice guy!
Your the man Jamie. 16yrs my junior though, but still last century lol
Hahaha I knew I recognised this guy, I worked opposite ace cafe back in the day, I was there for every event I could make it down to
Jamie and I have far too many similar stories, nice to know it’s not just me😂
What a guy Jamie is lives and breathes fuel cracking podcast
Jamie. You can ride geared 50 from day 1 passing CBT I had a 50cc Supermoto and then went up from there. Never rode a moped.
👍...Gilera smt 50?
@@TheWorldListens Reiju SM50
@@smcdetailing7921 👍 That was my 3rd guess 🤣
I have no interest in cars and especially what i would call boy racers but have watched a decent amount of Jamie's videos, rhat is when you know it is a good product with a talented content creator
Just the most likeable guy
Really enjoyed that jamie the boiii less go

The old appreciateship £400.a month 🤣🤣
I was on £50.a week plumbing apprenticeship in 1994 jokes
I've always said these guys like DMO Deejay etc should be off the road, they're driving 1000bhp cars which are super dangerous and they'll doing it like nutters. DMO outright takes the mickey and these people should be stopped.
You nicked my name! Haha
Bro said a45 at 18? What's this guys background?
Fortunately a family business in paving slabs. Went on to start my own paving firm I subsequently sold, full video on my background on this channel 😄
10k subs in a year! Wow!
I dream of 10k subs ever! 🙏❤️😜
