After hearing about his brain injuries, I'm cutting him some slack. I had a brother who sustained a brain injury as a result of an accident, and he was never the same again.
Traumatic Brain Injuries can be so horrific and devastating. A person's entire personality can change completely. It's horrible. This seems like another case of someone not getting the help and support and resources they needed when it was crucial. Add to that the fact that he was a celebrity, and people just let them do whatever they want and say "well, that's just how he is. Actors, am I right?" Instead of holding him accountable. And I don't mean his victims, I mean his peers a lot of looking the other way instead of insisting he get help and shape up. He's still responsible for his actions, but I totally understand how a TBI would cause significant impairment and lead him down a bad path.
Yea I got a close family member with a TBI from a motorcycle accident and the way Garys personality change was described sounds a lot like the person I know.
I will say this at the risk of sounding like a jerk, people in this circumstance usually have options to help them out. The problem is they will ignore the problems or act as if they are being personally attacked if anyone is to suggest there is a problem. It’s a really crappy problem and to be a loved one that only wants to see them get better it makes things 1000 times harder. What’s worse is there really isn’t any real way to get them hep if they don’t want it unless you do something that could violate their liberty in a serious way.
Yeah, brain injuries are no joke. You're literally unable to distinguish "right" from "wrong" as it applies to social cues and situations. Damaged brains don't process information in the same way healthy brains do and they really don't have that thing that tells them "hey, maybe you shouldn't do/say that!!" They just follow their impulses and have no idea why people are pissed, or disturbed by their behavior.
@@HolldollMcG Sometimes the trauma is just too extensive to do anything, or a part of the brain may even have to be removed. Something there's just nothing to be done about the fact that they are completely unable to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate behavior.
Busey was like this waaaaaay before his accident we just never talked about it back in the day it was hidden and now that he’s older he’s not being slick about it anymore
Having suffered from a severe traumatic brain injury I recognize all of his behaviors. It is incredibly difficult to bounce back from it. You have to get help and you have to avoid drugs and alcohol. I wonder if that was his biggest mistake after his accident. By diving into heavy drug use he didn't give his brain a chance to heal. I feel bad for him and hope he gets the help he needs.
My mechanic was in a coma for two weeks from his motorcycle accident 4 years ago. At 40 years old he started using meth.He can't finish tasks like he did prior to his motorcycle accident.
Thank you for this post. I also had a traumatic brain injury, post an assault by one of my patients at work. (At a Maximum Security Forensic psychiatric facility) I also recognize many of his behaviors.
@@nancybeveridgetaylor3256 , I am so sorry that happened to you. I hope you're healing.
@@johndevalera6014, that is common, unfortunately. I hope he can break out of the pattern. It took me several years to cut back on alcohol and I'm slowly getting things in order. I was in a coma too but every injury is different and every person has different reactions to trauma. I really do hope he can pull out of it but I understand how difficult it is.
I hope the best for you.
In an episode of Celebrity Rehab Gary got tearful watching himself on television in The Buddy Holly Story. I don't think he was acting in that moment. It must have been heartbreaking for him to be reminded of what he once was. I got a little tearful, too. He deserved to be nominated for an award for that role. He did a superb job.
Hé was crazy back when The Buddy Holly Story came out
@@judethaddeus9856 LOL!
I met him a couple of times on set.
He was always very kind & respectful.
I saw Gary Busey at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
@@residentevil4freek Sounds like either he has or the rest of the world needs to have - a dark sense of humour
@@whynottalklikeapirat It's an old copy-pasta. It's not an actual story.
@@Xeohelios1004 My comment still applies, because the thrust of it does not depend on the story being true =.O
What was your role on set
Busey has always been a character. It's a shame his accident seems to have made his personality even more extreme. I like to think he's a good person underneath all his problems.
He is a good person at heart.
does morals and ethics even matter to good people????
The brain damage he suffered from actually lifted his career. He became more unpredictable, random and entertaining
Auditioning for Jeffrey toobin's job. Doc you should get a side job as a comic too you are too funny. It's even more funny when you say it with a straight face.🤣🤣😅😅😊
That’s what I like to think.
I am one of those legit folks who are 1 class away from finishing my degree. That said, I became disabled during my last semester and got all of my loans dismissed. Because of the disability I can no longer work in my field. I got to be a stay at home dad so it all worked out. Best job ever.
Has the college or university been unwilling to work with you about this? Good luck!
If you were a stay at home Dad, you had a very important job!
@@susanmann5286 Sorry that wasn't clear. They did work with me as far as the debt was discharged since I was disabled (didn't know they did that and was glad they did). Had I finished, I couldn't work in my field anyway.
@@patriciaaznavourian3014 Thanks, I am currently a stay home dad with a 5 yr old daughter and 2 month old son. Yeah, 47 is old to be taking it on, and being disabled doesn't help, but I can do it and the job is its own reward.
@@Craterface666 God bless you and your family. You are doing the most important job in the world!
He made a list of questionable decisions, visiting New Jersey, and the list goes on.. lmao 😂 this was a funny one. 👍🏼
After being in recovery from a horrific auto accident that left me with brain damage I understand his struggle Mine was almost 10 years ago. I just recently felt as I came out of a physical and emotional coma 😴.
It is a life changer.
Wishing you peace and continued healing. Sounds like it's been a lot of hard work and time. You should feel proud of how far you've come (I'm sure you don't need me to tell you that)
Thanks for sharing ☺️
All the best to you, Joyce. You're still you
This is why I am conflicted in placing complete blaim on Gary. Dr. G is correct that he should have a carer that can act as a secondary frontal lobe. I hope you have not experienced as troubling consequences and that you have people who understand and love you.
Thank you
@@skunkrat01 Thank you
Seeing Gary just being Gary is scary enough tbh
Almost as scary as seeing Gary on cocaine. Then again maybe that's just Gary being Gary! LOL!
That creepy, leering smile; teeth that look like oversized Chiclets...
@@megatherion2695 😆
@@megatherion2695 More like urinals installed too closely together. BTW, your handle reminds me of the great Celtic Frost album "To Mega Therion"...the great beast.
You would think he would have a minder or concerned individual to keep an eye on him.
After Gary Busey spent time with Patrick Swayze, "he had the time of his life." Good one.
His motorcycle accident really did a number on him and while he’s been able to function quite well, he does act quite erratic and very bizarre. I hope he’s able to get help as he defiantly needs it after all that’s happened. Thank you for the video Dr. Grande, keep up the great work!
JW: Dr. Drew said the Gary had lost 1/4 of his brain from the accident.
He was always nutty, but he got worse. You gotta love him though, he tries really hard to be likable.
Yes, he has been defiant 😡 every now and then.
@@KB4QAA oo that is so sad
@@JB-3794 😂 glad to see that i'm not the only one who gets annoyed with that "typo"
When he appeared on 'Celebrity Rehab', Dr. Drew had the other patients watch Gary in the Buddy Holly Story to witness his massive talent. That was a brilliant move, and also a kind gesture toward helping them to understand what he was like before the brain damage.
I remember my grandmother talking about Gary's motorcycle accident and saying many times that she hoped he didn't die. I guess, fir a few days, it wasn't a given that he would survive. If he is spiraling out of control now I hope he can get some help or at least be assigned a good care giver who can accompany him in public. I don't know much about Mr Busey but Silver Bullet has always been one of my favorite fun movies and now my kids love it too.
Yes, I love that movie. Its so good and Busty does a great job. Hes just a fun guy to watch in anything hes been in.
@@sherryelle225 I 100% agree. He is a big personality who can do lots of different roles and make them all seem realistic and enjoyable 😉 🤩
@@charleendavis8171 ah yea, I grew up watching that. My mom recorded it on vhs off the TV one night. 😂 I felt bad for the kid in the wheel chair bc he couldn't walk, but when he got that awesome version, I thought it was hella awesome. 😂 he did make a movie seem a little too real at times.
@@daviedood2503 Haha he did make everything he was in pretty great. My kids are so removed from that time but we also have Silver Bullet on VHS and DVD so it's a Friday night favorite in front of the tv with popcorn, soda and good memories. Love the kid in the wheelchair LOL
@@charleendavis8171 his sister kinda reminded me of mine. 😂 she was annoyed with everything haha
Back in the days of his prime before the accident, I really liked him in film. We all make bad decisions from time to time. It just so happens that not wearing a helmet was his worst one.
Busey campaigned against mandatory helmet laws after he was in that accident.
@@janel.8921 But he did change his tune in the early 90's and did support helmet laws.
Busey had been an outspoken opponent of helmet laws before his own accident, but now has changed sides. “I don't have any tolerance for people who want to ride free in the wind,” Busey said at a Los Angeles press conference. “If you don't wear a helmet, you're not playing with a full deck.”Dec 14, 1991
@@johndlong7117 If one is going to ride an ill-handling Harley Davidson with their infamous "death-wobble", wearing a helmet probably isn't a priority.
Gary Busy's biggest mistake was getting on a Harley Davidson and expecting it to handle properly.
@@johndlong7117 Thanks! I missed that.
I have always been a big fan of this fellow. He has always been a unique character.
Great shirt, Doctor!
Kind of dating myself, but after Gary's accident I always sensed that there was something "off" with him. I just didn't know what to call it.
Thank-you for being informative and making me laugh out loud. ✌😎🤘
1, how do u "date yourself". That's impossible. 2, why the need to share that with everyone?
Are we suppose to "say" something regarding that, or a silent nod, perhaps a _"YOU GO GURRRRL! YAAAAAS! WERRRRK BCH! U DON'T NEED NO DAMN MAAAAN! YOU'RE STRONK, N INDA PEN DANT!"_
@@daviedood2503 That
That's a lot of words for someone who doesn't understand what is being said. She means "dating herself" in the sense that she is old enough to remember when Gary had the motorcycle accident way back when. You could have simply asked what she meant rather than going on a misogynistic rant.
Don't date yourself, try eHarmony.
@@daviedood2503 😆😆😆
I enjoy your sense of humor in these analyses, Doctor
I find Gary Busey and Nick Nolte are interchangeable.
Lol yeah brothers from another mother
That motorcycle accident turned him into a five year old with no impulse control...
Gary Busey always gave me a uneasy feeling. He seemed almost manic at times. I think as time goes on his ability to hang on to any reality is diminishing. I hope he doesn't end up hurting himself or anyone else.
Pink...
He's been accused of sexual assault!
Yeah, some people do not have a graceful end of life. My relative (who has a similar kooky personality like Busey) ended up losing her job after she had to pull her school bus over and find somewhere to shit and the kids on the bus recorded her as she squatted behind some bushes. She was around 70 but still mentally healthy, shortly after that she started suffering to dementia and that’s a whole story in itself. That stress and embarrassment we think started to aggravate her mental illness.
He’s had mental problems for years and he’s old. This could be the beginning of the end for him. It’s bound to happen to some celebrities in our lifetime, I mean look at Biden, I’m surprised nobody has intervened yet lol.
The kid from Sons of Anarchy did this. His name is fleeting atm but if you look it up the story is insane and sad
Pink Volo, same. He always made me super anxious.
Honestly, one of my favorite actors, not for his academy award talents, but definitely a unique, fun character. Not condoning the inappropriate behavior, but drugs, the accident and his free spirit definitely took a toll on him. Hope he gets it together, before it's too late...
Your humor absolutely lifts my mood dr. Grande 😌
It's just the best. He's so funny!
My life’s been crazy, Dr. G, so I look forward to a wealth of content when it slows down. Thanks for your consistency as so many rely on hearing your words of wisdom each day. Hope you’re doing well, my favorite doctor! ❤️
Mine too! I listen to him everyday!
I need Dr Grandes jokes and advice daily to get me through :)
I love how you slid that "visiting New Jersey" in there in the list of bad decisions.😂🤣
It’s sad. He was a talented actor. Years ago his smile was warm and engaging on screen. Now it’s creepy and crazy.Dont think he can do anything about that. I hope he can get real help and find peace.
It’s Grande time. Let’s do this. This sh be very interesting. Thank you, Grande. We appreciate your videos every day. They make a big difference.
Dr. Grande Translated: Dr. Great and Legend!
As a proud NYer, your continued jokes about NJ fill me with petty joy. 😂😂😂
Head injuries are no joke. Everyone should practice head protection safety when operating a bike or motorcycle.
You had me rolling with the college jokes. I always liked his quirky acting. His motorcycle accident did really affect his life in a bad way🏍which I find sad. Thanks Dr G😊💜💜

I have to say I do love your profilepic, but then again who wouldn't!
Gary Busey did an amazing job on his role in Predator 2 with Danny Glover 🤘🏻
Putting all those movie titles together in coherent and relevant summary was just one more evidence of Dr. Grande's genius!
"They thought simply having the convention in New Jersey wasn't scary enough. I would have to agree."
You get me every damn time Doc! 😆
I was surprised you didn't mention his show with his biggest fan that came on comedy central. I think it came on in the early 2000s. That really explored how weird he was.
[Edit] The Doc did mention the comedy central show. I should not have doubted him. He is very thorough!
He did mention the show, @ 5:25

I know it's hard for you never getting one thumbs up in your life. That's what happens when you act like a douche bag.
The jokes and puns were especially funny this episode, Dr. Grande! Well done. 👏👏👏👏👏
One of his best!
Sometimes such afflictions worsen with time, it seems, speaking of the brain trauma from the motorcycle accident.
I see what you did at the end there. You're killin it doc!
He actually was one of my favorite actors..especially in the Buddy Holly story. Sounds like he's been in quite a whirlwind since his accident and getting worse as hes getting older. Could get pretty scary!
I don't follow celebrities too much but Gary Busey is one of my favorites. If you're a senior and you've got an impulse control disorder and have brain damage you should probably just retire and stay away social events altogether.
Gary Busey is still out there, doing stuff? I didn’t even know he was still alive! He’s been a wild one for decades
Yea! Crazy right?!
"Doing stuff" !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I confess I thought the guy dropped dead long ago. I wasn't too upset about the thought, either.
@@tdotjazzberryram61 And THINGS.
Don't even have to read the comments to know that Gary Busey is a gold mine for endless (dry) humor. The kind that Dr. G excels in 👌👏😃
Both comical and tragic at the same time, hope he finds some kind of peace
It’s quite amazing that he’s still acting and getting work when he’s known to be erratic and unpredictable. Hopefully the people that have profited off him stand up and help him get what support he needs.
the work he gets is bottom of the barrel, essentially carnival freak show stuff - they put him on reality tv shows to act bizarre for people to laugh at. he is being exploited and it is shameful.
Number 6! I have no life.The Buddy Holly story is EASILY one of my favorite movies. So, there is not enough crazy yet to make me dislike him.
Years ago Busey got kicked out of Monster Mania autograph section because a fan walked into the room with a Nazi uniform on. It was from that movie Inglorious Bastards (I think). Busey went insane when he saw the guy, yelling and starting to walk towards the fan. Gary was taken out by security and not allowed back in the building. This was quite a while ago. He was never right after his accident.
Glad to see you're weighing in on this. Thanks, Doc!
Gary Busey's been a psychology term paper for a long time. 😂
"To be fair, Jeffrey Toobin just left CNN not long before this, perhaps Gary was auditioning for his spot"
Thanks for the laughs Doc.🤣🤣🤣 I can always count on you!
😀
This made me LOL I hate Toobin. His comeback interview was PURE cringe
Also,Do these wings make me look fat? LOL
@@7beauties161 😄
@@heathernikki5734 I can't even believe he had the nerve to come back! Can you imagine his coworkers having to pretend they don't know what they know?! His ego must be enormous and he has no shame. OMG
"Do these wings make me look fat?" I literally laughed out loud 🤣
A TBI and aging process, Gary would greatly benefit from having somebody with him during public appearances.
The best, absolute best performance of Busey's was as Uncle Red in the movie Silver Bullet. Thanks Dr. Grande! 😊
Patrick Swayze didn’t play a ghost in the movie, Ghost. I heard Gary speak at a Brain Injury convention a few years ago. It was indeed strange. However, I understood why he behaved the way he did and was really appalled that he didn’t have a regular carer. His actions were clearly because of his brain injury and not criminal per se. it is very sad that anybody expects him to behave normally and that he doesn’t have the support he needs.
He probably is refusing all suggestions for help, maybe not acknowledging that he has real issues even. Not sure what it would take: either getting some power of attorney for his health or beating the crap outta him. He definitely needs help.
I agree.
@@bluesioux9538 Acting as if you are fine after a TBI, makes everything worse. I think people who wanted something from him were his supposed help. He can't control himself in certain ways & he doesn't seem to have had the kind of rehab he needed, not just physical. Expecting him to be rational in the way of most people is ridiculous. Judgements instead of understanding is shocking. Brain injury is something we seem to look away from and judge what is common in these situations. His drug use was an effort to reclaim something he lost and, perhaps, to find again that spiritual experience he had. He talks about it constantly. BTW, he didn't describe angels with wings at all..and clearly they wouldn't need mirrors. Snark isn't called for in serious conversations. I realize, Blue Sioux, I have answered more than your comment. I apologize.
@@jzinser-mandala9117 I appreciate your taking the time to explain some things. No apologies needed. TY
Patrick Swayze didn't play a ghost in the movie "Ghost"...??? 🤔🤔🤔 Huh?
That second Jersey zing caught me off guard... nice delivery Doc
The Jersey jokes are killing me. I was one step away from getting a Cameo until you announced the price. I would have sprung for $35. $395, not so much. While Busey has always been quirky, it's sad what brain damage has done to him.
Why would he make a custom video for you for thirty-five lousy bucks?
@@mackhomie6 It's a cameo thing. The prices range all over the place, including $35 from relatively famous people. I've had one made by one of the stars of a series. It just depends on the person.
Buddy Holly may have been his best acting as far as Hollywood goes, but I still think under siege takes the prize. The scene where he's dressed in drag ranting about the ship's captains performance evaluation of him where he says "the captain thinks I need a psychiatric evaluation! Do I look like I need a psychiatric evaluation!! Beautiful performance that had me rolling!
You totally missed his career as a disk jockey on KAKC, KELI with Gailard Sartain in Tulsa. These were the best years of his career.
That wrap up was quite clever ser, touché!
"Do those wings make me look fat ?"
Really like this video Dr. Grande - no deaths - but lots of giggles and laughs ...
(of course still serious what happened to Gary and what he did to other people)
Anyways 👍
I do like the odd one about some nudnik, and not necessarily something horrifying all the time. Can we have some more crazies/douches? Tom Cruise? Gwenyth Paltrow?
I think Steven Segal has been covered by Dr. G. Classic one, too 👌
"Places the debtor Under siege to the breaking point where even a silver bullet can't vanquish the predator." I saw what you did there, very good. You forgot to mention what a "Lethal Weapon" he is.
I actually liked him in Silver Bullet.
I quit Dr. Grande case analysis 🙁 for some reason learning about true crime cases was a phase in my life and I can’t/don’t want to learn more after watching every video for more than a year and half. what happened to me? I have no idea. I hope I’ll get to watch new educational videos from Dr. grande.
“Do these wings make me look fat?” 😂😂😂😂😂 You make my day Dr. Grande !
I love the shirt Dr Grande and your dry humour always makes me laugh, talk about keeping a straight face!
Just hilarious. I just hope Gary can stay out of trouble until the end. Such an interesting guy. Sad to watch him decline.
I love Gary's acting.
It goes to show that you never know what someone is going through.
Good job on the video Dr. Grande.
All this is the way to get to know Gary.
That's part of the Worlds problem, we really don't know one another.
If we did the world would be a better place to live.
I agree
"Pet Judge"? I missed that show, I guess. A good lesson to us all: if you're going to ride a motorcycle wear a helmet. Great profile, Dr. Grande, as usual.
I love that Dr. Grande never misses an opportunity to dunk on the great state of New Jersey.
I met Gary when I was living in Malibu. I was grocery shopping and found him in the meat/cooler (well leaned on to the cooler. He was very nice. He gave me one of his acronym’s that he is known for. This was about 5 years ago.
I am not saying that he isn’t a violent person. I am just name dropping by sharing my experience.
He did break his entire skull apart in a motorcycle helmet. He does have severe brain damage.
An acronym? For his name? Like Ryag? Lol. You know an acronym is the word with the same letters rearranged...like Gary = Ryag. Maybe you meant alias

Good afternoon Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis as always. I learn so much from your analysis. You never fail to make my day. Love the humour . Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis and informative topic. BTW love the shirt, it's my favourite.
Just watching this video and HAD to comment on how you mentioned that when Gary Busey had finished with an experience with Patrick Swayze, he thought that he had "the time of his life". Subtle, clever, perfect timing and delivery!!!! Great reference to the movie, "Dirty Dancing"!
Sorry to hear about this tragedy
That's funny what you were telling the stories of people who were giving excuses as to why they don't have college degrees...
It reminds me of all the guys I met when I was younger that would say that they were in the Marines but they got "kicked out for punching a superior officer," or punching the drill sergeant. 😂🤣
So ridiculous that they'd expect me to believe that! And I tell him my dad served 28 years in the military and I grew up in the military and I know they're full of shlt!
Ride on!
That’s funny I was thinking pretty much the same thing when he was discussing the college topic. It reminded me of the guys who say they went through Navy SEALS training but didn’t complete the program because during the last week they got into a fight, which they won of course, and were forced to quit. These guys are usually fat, bald, and have zero athletic ability.
@@dylan4652
😄🤣
funny thing is i did drop out of 12th grade and i had honor roll 10th and 11th. no lie.
I am from Tulsa and over the years he has come back here often. Many people I have known have had wild stories of their encounters with him. He grabbed my rear at a bar way back in the 90's. I just kept going and laughed it off. He is quite the character around here. My story is lame compared to others I have heard.
Grabbed your rear, lol. Should have smacked him. I drove for an SUV/limo type gig in Key West and had many celebs in the vehicle. The only one who tried to grab me was Ron Jeremy. He is a nasty hedgehog and I told him so. Then I demanded an extra hundred for his bad behavior. He gave me the hundred and a pack of rolling papers that I didn't want. I said sign the pack and gave him a pen. I sold them to someone for $20. Lol. I would scold famous people all the time. Charge them $10 for every F bomb, make them clean up after themselves. Hey. Don't leave your gum wrapper on the seat. Funny how they enjoyed being treated like regular people.
This is a sad story. Gary appeared on Big Brother here in the UK and by all accounts he was very messed up.
"Busey Wrangler" sounds like a challenging job.
Very entertaining and funny video! I like Gary Busey as an actor. He was very good in Lethal Weapon. Ironically, his character in A Star 🌟 Is Born manages Kris Kristopherson's band and provides him with cocaine. I never heard anything about Gary completing rehab, so I am assuming he still uses cocaine recreationally. This explains his reckless behavior and crossing boundaries. I would never want to be around anyone like him.
I always imagined other actors in scenes with an argument between them and Busey wiping spit from their faces afterwards. He just isn't one of my favorite actors. Too erratic and explosive and damn! he is loud, but not in an entertaining way. He would be a nightmare of a neighbor if you were separated only by walls.
I think you are right. He is what he is, by his own design. He was rewarded for being a crazy drug-driven lunatic with roles to match, and after enough years of that, people started to turn off. Being the class clown is only a minute of fame. This later leads to the spoiled burned out star who can't stop getting arrested. Not unusual. I did think that MTV series was funny. He once said "I'm from Texas. I wear whatever is comfortable". I thought that was cool as hell, for it was the time period of my life where clothing was important for work and social life. Thanks.
I wonder if the Dear Doctor would examine the possibility that a post-accident drift into drugs and alcohol for pain, is really what happened here. That " he was never the same" is just that nobody is every the same once they form a pain-killer addiction. If you go through life with no severe trauma, you really can be thrown for a loop by what drugs they give you when say; you get wisdom teeth removed, or you break a bone. If nobody is around to help you get back moving again, back to your regular regimen of healthy living, you can drift into this lifestyle of always looking for a high.
@@BrisLS1 He was doing a lot of blow, too. I would guess he hit the bottle many nights. Opiate addiction is an epidemic but you either have control over your consumption of substances or you don't. I was prescribed narcotics after 5 car accidents. I know how to moderate the use of painkillers and also when the pain is manageable without the drugs to stop taking them. If you use them correctly, you don't get high. You just feel less pain. When you get to a point where you no longer feel pain and start to feel a little buzz it's time to put down the pills and stop taking them.
@cantfindmykeys Perhaps it is best you can't find your keys, given the fact you've been in five car accidents.
Gary is crazy in a lovable way.
Dr. Grande, I was totally not expecting to laugh so hard this morning. Thanks for the education as well.
I love how one of the mistakes one can make in their life is "Visiting New Jersey" 🤣
A big mistake is having been born there and spending half your life in that state. And also moving out but foolishly returning back. I have regretted it ever since.
Sometimes I believe death is a Blessing. To live such a crazy, brain injured life, must be a type of Agony. To the side of his brain that still understands. I’m sorry Gary. Maybe it’s time , if you can , to find some kind of peace.
When I say I liked 3 courses to get my associates degree and took a semester or 2 off, they discontinued the degree, when I tried to go back, I'm telling facts not a "story". I don't think everyone says these things because they are lying or giving excuses. Its just what happens. Just sounds kinda snobby.
Sometimes true. More often not. I'm sorry you wasted time and money. I got my degree and also wasted time and money. A bachelor's is nothing more than a piece of paper. To really open doors of opportunity these days a higher education is required. Even PhDs are mopping floors somewhere. My dad got his doctorate many years ago and it was like a ticket to anywhere. Employers fought over him. It's not like that anymore.
In all fairness, Cherry Hill is south jersey which is a whole different state -not that it matters; it’s still jersey. Keep the Jersey jokes comin’! Love ‘em.
I’m here for the brilliance and the humor. Dr. Grande…you delivered on both but especially the humor on this one. I almost passed out from lmao when you said “do these wings make me look fat?” 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
I'm laughing so hard I'm in tears! Gary made poor decisions; like visiting New Jersey. Ha!!!
Don’t leave out that when Gary was visited by the ghostly Patrick he was making a clay vase and listening to the Righteous Brothers 😄
Great review as always! Thank you, Dr. Grande.❤️
The last bit of wordplay was fantastic. 🤙🤙
gary busey was a victim of unwanted touching himself when he was a guest on politically incorrect with bill maher pre "they were not cowards". as he removed her hand from his person he requested "madam, would you please keep your hand to yourself?" that woman was nonother than arianna huffington
When I think if Gary Busey, I think of the Gingerdead Man trilogy. I think that says enough 😆
Oh! Also, when him & his son were at a Mushroomhead show & they played the water drums on stage. So random, so yes can say he is impulse. It was awesome though!
I'm with Busey was a very special artistic endeavor! 😅
I love when Dr Grande hits them Jersey jokes.
Thanks Dr. Grande, This is a very fair, thoughtful, and playful analysis. Your humor and clever wordplay are always enjoyable and helpful to digest such a complicated life story. Best wishes to all for a pleasant, productive and peaceful day. Gratefully, Dennis
Busey is my spirit animal
Once I heard you say"New Jersey" I knew there was a good joke coming. You never can resist crapping on that city and I'm here for it, Doc! 🤣
I wish there was a tunnel to go underneath New Jersey or avoid it completely some other way. I always steered clear of NJ when I lived in the Northeast. Eventually, I steered clear of the entire NE and somehow ended up in south America. I think I'm a comfortable distance from NJ now.
What i find intriguing is your word play and double innuendo, you underplay it beautifully.
Hey mate!👆Tell Andrei jikh that you were referred by me for the right strategy on his new project to participate on it. Thank you for the comments ✍️
I don't think you like New Jersey.
Gary hAs differently changed.
I saw an interview with him a few years ago. He made up words and gave the definition to each made-up word. Most of them were pretty cool. They were "Gary" isms.
Love the humor.
Always interesting.
Love the shirt.
Thank you.
Peace 💕🇺🇲
Hilarious 👏. I wonder if things would have been different if he was cast in Beverly Hills Cop in place of Nick Nolte. I always remember that being Bussey.
They used to hang out together, too.
thank u for posting each day, it keeps me looking forward to the end of each day/ part of my routine that keeps me feeling ok!
Best episode ever!! Much respect and love from South Jersey!
Great character actor, but Gary has been in never never land for some time.
I worked briefly at his accounting firm in Los Angeles while he was in the hospital recovering from the accident. My boss told me she was going into a meeting and was absolutely not to be disturbed. He called and demanded to speak with her, and I had to tell him she could not be called out of the meeting. He cursed me out and threatened me. It was a crappy job all around, so I don't blame him entirely for my leaving, but I started calling him Gary Abusey after that.
That doesn't surprise me one bit. That he was a jerk and that you quit.
Thought he was a fine actor though...
@@kellymitchell3138 I can think of so many better ones, but he wasn't a bad actor.
@@cantfindmykeys I didn't say he was my favorite, but he was great in Buddy Holly, Point Break and The Firm...
@@kellymitchell3138 Yes, I think so, too. In the last two he was good. I didn't see Buddy Holly. But I do think that Keanu (who isn't as much praised for his versatile and stellar acting ability as he is for his real life character) outshined Busey in Point Break. Come to think of it.. so did Swayze.
Gary Busey was also great in Straight Time, 1976 I think, starring Dustin Hoffman, and additionally with great performances by Teresa Russell, Harry Dean Stanton, Kathy Bates and M. Emmet Walsh. Busey's last scene with Hoffman was moving in its sadness. It's a great movie for those who love great actors, and Dr. Grande I think you'd really like it in its believable portrait of Hoffman's obsessive thief, who tragically can't pull himself away from finding one particular necklace during a jewelry heist, and the heartbreaking consequences that follow (I guess consequences always follow).
Gary would make a great Crypt-Keeper in a reboot of the legendary show. What a guy!
