“We don’t have to talk about it. We can just sit here for a minute.” What a guy. Theo has a heart of gold
Dude, no!
He should've MILKED him, made him cry MORE!
Seeing a grown ass man cry is funniest sh-t, bro! No cap!!
I know, I love that he said that.
he said "I can just sit with you here for a minute" which somehow sounds even better
after his failed piss joke attempt...
@@stephencox8723he was trying to lighten the mood because he didn’t know if Sean wanted to go down that road and open up… when it was clear Sean did, he stopped and was just there for him.
"We don't have to talk man, I can just sit with you here for a minute." What a perfect way to make him feel comfortable,cared for and heard. I love Theo so much.
@codytac "AiGhT bEtA"
enjoy being a depressed middle aged man because you can't cope with the fact you have feelings. It's WAY easier to just brush it off and pretend you don't care than it is to admit you're in pain.
@codytacOnly people I know irl that think about apha and beta look like mclovin
what a trash fucking human being you gotta be to not do that though.........
@codytac ur the person who mike tyson fucks till you love him arent ya
@@patrickstar4132 yeah they're all confused as fuck about life that they need a manual.
Sean doesn’t realize how many guys he’s helping out by being so raw. I felt that brother.. I appreciate my parents for being so loving and supportive, but I feel for dudes who went through shit like this.
Well said my guy...👍👏
Don’t get emotional
Its very tough but if you can get through it, it means you're tougher strickland is a prime exapmle.
He sounds like a dude that sucks cocks
Having a stable environment makes all the difference in the world, as obvious as that may seem.
I've been struggling a lot lately and holding my emotions in, watching a UFC champion cry like that made me cry like a baby and not feel less of a man.
let it out!!! holding it in is poison to your mind, body, & soul. you are not alone ❤
No shame in that game dude. Hope you're doing alroght- random stranger.
Let it out bro, I was shedding some tears to.
Right
This validated my feelings
Seeing a whole ass grown man cry
I feel ok feeling what i feel about my trauma
Just doing better everyday and when those feelings and sour thoughts come i just push thru
Hey bro I feel you, if you ever need someone to talk to you can always comment on my posted. Everyone could use a caring friend
As a therapist, when Theo said, “We don’t have to talk, I can just sit here with you,” that was one of the most loving, empathic and helpful things someone can do for someone who has suffered trauma…really inspirational to see these two have this conversation and share it with the world.
I swear Theo just has unconditional love for everybody doesn't matter who you are
As a therapist i agree
serious question, what you think about him involving the wife of a fighter, or their traditions or sexuallity? I mean I really get his trauma and I feel for him but at the same time I don't think it's okay to go around involving fighters personal life. because I get that his trauma is more low, but then don't provoke people you know what I mean? maybe just his defense mechanism to attack everyone but you can't just justify all the things that he says. again this is a serious question since you are a therapist. Thank you.
@@andrestrejo6971as a youtube comment specialist, I think everyone that has an open relationship shouldn't be binded with anyone. I still believe in monogamy
nothing to do with the point, that his personal choice, read my comment again it was a serious question to a therapist, not to a youtube comment specialist@@MarkDanger777
Theo has been sent by God to make it acceptable for men to have tough conversations. You guys are both doing a lot of good.
well said man
Prophet
God did not send this POS. 😂 hes literally a braindead lunatic that lucked out he can fight. Hes worthless in character. And anyone praising him needs to do a deeeep self reflection.....
no @@JPLAviation
❤ so necessary
Theo handled this like a champ. I know he jokes around, but when he told him "It's okay man, I can just sit here with you", I gained so much respect for him. His capacity for empathy is off the charts
Your so right. A lot of people now would get awkward. He was just there and present. Impressive.
Theo is great but it’s also sad as it highlights how many people lack god damn empathy this day in age
@@Seryma86 was about to say.. sometimes i feel like a fell into a timewarp and got spat out decades later into this weird society we have these days..
@@clarkecorvo2692I absolutely get it. The world is nuts, and honestly why I went through some dark times (not just bc of the state of things but medical issues, etc) and just kinda lost my way in terms of just fading into the background. But everyday even when feeling awful I would make it a point to be decent to others and be able to put myself in their shoes and understand everyone has struggles, and some people’s are truly debilitating to functioning normally aka healthily. It’s tough for people that really get effected by the horrible stuff that goes on, and just thinking why are these things happening? why are we allowing these things to happen with no major changes being made to maybe make a difference in areas. We’re living in a weird world and it’s only going to get crazier imo. I did figure out that what I really want to do in life is help others, in one way or another. Have tried different positions over the past couple years to try and find the right niche
That's the word I was looking for empathy empathy just man do you feel that connection because you know he's real and he he's been through a lot of the same shit some of us having you know and struggled and just you know lucky to make it out to the side I mean hell I'm 51 and I'm still struggling hard song but at least you know I found him I found Theo and Billy strings the last couple days and I've been watching the crap out of them guys and they both gave me hope man which is probably the biggest thing right if you don't have hope you mean what you got and I got love I love my two kids but but that's you know I still got to get my head through stuff but we're all trying God bless
Sean doesn’t understand how many people he just helped 21 struggling finally just broke trying to get help we appreciate you homie
Theo getting emotional when Sean did just proves how good of a guy he is
Nah, he was thinking "can't let sean get all the attention, time to act!"

Theo can make any grown man cry because his listening skills and relatability is off the charts.
How did theo make u cry lmao
@@watappp
that's a good question, because Sean getting emotional had about ZERO percent to do with Theo lol
It's a skill, to listen
@@yumjoystyle2well he didn't cry with the nelk boys
Dude he should be a therapist
The empathy Theo has is amazing, He’s a genuine soul.
He has feelings. He’s aware others do too… well people like us do,
Awe sean crying? He needs to man up. And he opens with “he was almost a white supremacist” what a great guy 😂😂
@@chrisivan_ytright like what 😂 but at the same time i do kinda feel bad
@@chrisivan_ytthat’s how men like his father are created, telling someone to just “man up” and push their emotions aside just leads to explosive anger and drug abuse
@chrisivan_yt it's called indoctrination. Realize how intelligent a person must be to think through being taught all that B.S. as a child but still not think that way. Imagine if all of Palastine or ww2 erra Germans could have done the same. Guess what, if you grew up in nazi Germany you would be murdering people cause you ain't intelligent enough to reject that indoctrination.
9:24 anyone who had to deal with that feeling of being powerless to your “father” can relate to Sean’s pain. I’m still scared even though I’m bigger and stronger but I’m still scared of all the things that happened. Sean is a REAL man
Sean is just this perfect reflection of life. The good, the bad, the ugly. He is shocking and at times repulsive and then you see a flicker of something beautiful that came out of a terrible circumstance - the hurt child inside designed a man that could protect him.
What a fantastic and insightful comment, sincerely.
I love everything about this comment
Could not have possibly worded this better.
Sum good people do bad things and sometimes bad people do good things..I wonder which one he is
Your exactly right..💯
Theo was tearing up before Sean even got emotional. That man's heart is gigantic.
This guy is the same guy that called men who cry pussies
Я 17-летний русский парень, который прошел через то же самое, что и Шоном. Некоторые вещи могут даже шокировать вас. Но я верю, что ИИСУС, БОГ, ММА, ДЕВУШКА помогут мне........ Сейчас мой рост 194 см, а вес 105 кг. В фунтах это 6,4

I'm a 17-year-old Russian guy who went through the same things you and Sean did. Some things may even shock you. But I believe that JESUS, GOD, MMA, GIRL will help me........ Right now my height is 194 cm and my weight is 105 kg. In pounds, that's 6.4

@@zhidoripteloit2494 Stay strong brother. Keep it up 💪
@yuhhuhuhhe is seventeen years old, leave it bro. Ur not gonna get a profound statement from him. If ur not from EU, you wouldnt understand anyway.
It was probably him tearing up that triggered Sean to just break. And I feel Sean needed that cry for a long time.
This really shows how we think someone at the top looks like they have everything but inside they are still the small fearful little boy latching on to their mother's leg.
Thank you for being so unbelievably vulnerable Sean. That was so insightful!
What? Clinging to his mothers leg?

How is Theo tough? Lol dudes soft as hell
@@Justinicus24 yeah keep telling yourself that buddy

You think tough just means fighting? I'm no fighter, but I assure you the trauma ice experienced would break the BEST of fighters. @@Justinicus24
It takes a real man to be vulnerable. Much respect to Sean and to Theo for being a compassionate host.
Who noticed that Sean's voice cracked when he mentioned the fact that all the abuse he suffered made him stop believing in God? I'm happy that he found God and his spirituality. 🙏
You respect him for being racist!? Wow you must be racist too
@@bluesoul7163 man that hit me like a ton of bricks, that is some really really heavy dark stuff to see someone bring up and deal with on camera like this
@@bluesoul7163 A belief in a higher power helps those who can't come to terms with tragedy in their lives. A corrupt church and seeing how so many Christians act made me lose faith in middle school (30 now and never looked back though Buddhism has helped more than Christianity ever did for me), but one of my aunts lost her husband and both children and believes more than ever and I think that's helpful for her. I always encourage her in whatever she finds helps. It is good now with the internet that people can find spirituality in other ways than the corrupt and evil modern Christianity, hopefully with more people not believing we'll see the next generation find meaning in better spiritual ways than the judgmental and horrible modern Christian ways.
Yet Sean shits on other men for their vulnerability. It's shitty
Childhood trauma is one of the hardest things I had to overcome, I feel his pain.
stays with you for life , 57 now and more angry than ever
Same here.
63 it never goes away but you can mitigate the trauma with faith and creating your own family
it feels like i overcome it and succomb at times. its hard to not feel resentment knowing what it did to me.
How did you overcome it?
Wow I can’t believe I cried with Sean Strickland…respect to this stud.
You can tell Theo has a good heart. He felt Sean's pain, he's an true empath, which is so rare nowadays, nice to see.

Agreed
@@lebumjames1373 Each to their own.
‘I’m sorry buddy’ - so much kindness and empathy in Theo’s voice.
Most Lesbians are very kind and empathetic. It just shows how short-sighted and inwardly bigoted you really are.
Never seen a better moment where one bro holds space for another in my life. That's brotherhood
After being alive long enough you realize how important it is to see a powerful man cry over something worth crying over.
Dudes need to get over that shit for real. If something traumatic or bad enough happens to the point you feel you’re about to break “go insane”, letting that shit out can do wonders to regrouping.
@@Seryma86step a foot into his life man, stop talking and start understanding
Yes something real , unlike those of whom cry and hissy fit over being misgendered. Pathetic, they would not know a hard upbringing if it but them on the ass. This right here with Sean is worthy of acknowledgement. This right here is worthy of our attention .
@@ilse_22 he has no idea what it's like so he spews shit to make himself feel better and seem smart and "helpful".
@@Seryma86Good words, and I agree with the sentiment
But then you've got men like me, whose mother would relentlessly beat him if he cried.
I literally can't cry for myself - I can cry for others, for an emotional movie, story, etc - but I cannot cry for myself because my subconscious is convincing someone 2-3x my size will run in and beat me as hard they can
Theo would be an amazing therapist. Such an empathic, genuine dude.
@@mattbynum3968 His empathy for a fellow person in pain choked me. Two good blokes👍
@shawnmendrek3544 Well I am old now but I have always firmly believed in what Elvis said "Don't criticise what you don't understand ... you never walked in that man's shoes". We should be kind when we talk with people, they are not us and we are not them but that takes effort to learn! Listen to their story, give them a break for goodness sake! We cannot choose the family we are born into (I definitely would not choose my trauma FFS)!! Most of all ITS NOT OUR FAULT. That is a hard one. Sending hope to everyone💐
@shawnmendrek3544 Great to see hope in your words. It's a horrible place to be devoid of hope but then the world does turn and so do we along with it. Life does and can throw up happiness and miracles - who knows when well I don't know that anymore than anyone does! The point being keep going with the certain knowledge that you will help yourself when you understand little you as a child. I always say families who would have them and I say that with sorrow. The only way I know how to sort things out is talk - its logical and always works (normally)😀
that's what ptsd looks like, bro. the entire fight world loves you, sean.
No, us folks from SPECWAR are not his fan anymore. He needs to learn some humility.
@@phildog75 jon jones, brock lesnar, frank trig, luke rockhold, sean omalley, i could go on... all those guys have waaaaay more problems with "humility," and those are just off the top of my head. i think you just don't have any balls, so you can't relate with sean. he's a stand up guy who likes to fight. who'd he talk too much at? izzy? the dog groomer? if you brought him to your gym and he tuned up the whole room, you should thank him, not be butt hurt. your comment has a lot of estrogen in it, bro.
oh, you're military? lol get in line for the tune up then. you guys can't hang in this world, you're going to get hurt. i've played in both playgrounds, vet in both worlds, and you guys don't stack up. talking about humility you're incapable of handing out... thinking you're anything but a btch. come on bro, have another drink at the enlisted club and ride the loose lady y'all pass around base and forget about the man dance. you just ain't got the stones. navy guy, talking about humility... half you guys go on deployment for the street drugs. tell me i'm lying. how bout them port calls in tailand? ya, you seal guys really have a lot of humility...
you don't belong in this world, you can't hang in this world, and you're pretending if you think you could ever make it in this world. point blank. so suck it up, buttercup. there's a new level of toughest man in this world, and it ain't you guys. deal with it.

@@phildog75 take his challenge and go teach it to him then. you're a worm for this comment, bro
Yep , and I truly hope for this Guy he can learn to heal from it , other than just taking it out on a bag or in the ring. A lot of guts to put this one out and much respect. The hardcore demeanor now understood ! 👍
Not a lot of guys would have the balls to post this, but a lot of guys needed to hear it. Sean is showing himself to be fearless in and out of the cage. Respect.
Shut up
Was ruthlessly mocking Rountree for crying and opening up about his trauma just some months ago. Still its hard not to feel compassion for him. He had a horrible life. Thats probably why he has to be so cruel and hating sometimes
@@francescolapietra930When all you know from birth is hatred and cruelty then in moments of discomfort that’s what you’ll turn to, because it’s what’s familiar
@@francescolapietra930 As the old saying goes, "hurt people hurt people" (as in people who have been hurt tend to in turn hurt people). Sean seems to be an example of someone who probably doesn't genetically have anything wrong with him in terms of his mental health, but his experiences in life have given him a burden of almost uncontrollable rage and probably a diminished capacity for empathy. He's not evil, but he's haunted.
Sean "I am an alpha male and everyone else are betas. men who cries are betas. my dad used to beat me when i was a child and i am still having trauma to this day huhuhu sorry for crying in every interviews" Strickland
This level of vulnerability put Sean's star power to a whole other level... How do you not feel this guy's pain.. Truly is the peoples champ. He's one of us.

Amen brother we need more men willing to show their pain and be able too smash your head inside out if you want too mock that. I just wondered at first if Theo was tearing up because he made Sean cry…. I would have thought this is my last podcast. You can’t be a Richard Simmons trying too be a leader in us showing our internal war as men. This man is the perfect one too show it’s ok. I’ve done time and struggled with anger as a result of a brain injury from a snowboarding accident when i 14 changed my behaviour growing up for the worst, but the most anger I kept pent up was from that feeling of being alone too battle it, I talked too friends and family and they don’t understand your internal fight which in turn makes it worse too fight. I’m a believer in not seeking out the answer it will be given to you when the time is right. I still haven’t found it but videos like this help a lot especially when you can relate but see that strength from Sean that most of us don’t want too let out in fear of being seen weak. This guys good role model a good inspiration, made mistakes in life as we all do, learned from it and uses his platform to give people the help he never had. He’s there in that seat for a reason he suffered for a reason and it’s too help men struggling too talk about what’s eating them inside. I love this guy because I’m Canadian and he bashed Trudeau good up here lol
Sean breaking down when he said he stopped beliving in GOD is so relatable. I went from blindly beliving. To not believing. And now ive made a choice to believe in GOD. Lifes been better🙏🏼❤️
there u go man, Always believe and be thankful to the highest! Stay strong my boy !! 💪🏽
Seeing Theo trying to lighten the mood while tearing up hit me right in the heart.
Coming from a very stable family I just simply can't fathom this type of upbringing. My absolute respect for Sean Strickland
@@ComommonlyCensoredit’s an honest and irrelevant question.
@@ComommonlyCensoredthis is a good question. I hope OP doesn’t get offended. It’s a legit question that needs to be asked. Those of us who struggle tend to be the ones who help others who are struggling. I have had very little help from “stable” families. Just judgement and pity, with no intent to actually help. Really the pity was to make them feel better, about themselves. Which is okay. They have no obligation to help us. But, the feigned caring can be frustrating.
@@ComommonlyCensored Do you?
Yea people with trauma in childhood have such a hard time relating to people that lived a cush life. I remember watching the OC in high school thinking wow I wish my life was like this and all the petty drama seems so inconsequential in comparison

I don't know if Sean realizes how many of us can relate to his trauma. I grew up with my parents fighting all the time and my dad's substance abuse. A lot of us feel the way he does
Bruh same dw we will become inspirational one day ❤
Fr… eats us all up. There’s so many times I act a certain way and realize I do this or that because of shit that happened when I was a kid…
Its not really an excuse to be a bigot 😂
Damn I'm glad I'm not alone
@@Kitsuragi556 I know you have zero worries when you’re retarded 😂
Theo is an angel, he sees the sickness in this world and doesnt understand it. The greed , the hate etc. He's like a lot of us but he has put in the work and has the honesty and intelligence and of course the humour to relate it to the world on a large scale and we can all hear it. Take care Sean.
Christ that guy is in pain for real.
I cannot imagine having to fight somebody with that level of pain and trauma bottled up.
Theo is a better person than he thinks.
This is why Mike Tyson didn't want his kids to become fighters, he knows they aren't like him.
ig you gotta draw on the feelings you felt during trauma to feel like you'd rather die than lose again
@@Fatty918 id rather die than feel like i did at some points. fear of your own vulnerability is what drives a lotta people.
Sean is too!
@@ruutjormun2262 but you didn't and there's a reason we keep on going. Life is a gift and you, to a great degree, have its reins in your hands. Even in old age and with a terminal illness.

Yeah mad respect for Theo. Plenty of other Podcasters probably wouldn't have been so empathetic towards Sean Strickland.

@@StopandThink369oh you fanboys love to put your hands over your eyes and pretend to not see the hypocrisy.
A HUGE thing that sticks out for me is how he says it was first training at 14 that felt good, he didn’t join this sport to get famous, he joined it because it made him want to be alive.
Most pro fighters have extremely traumatic pasts. This is not uncommon at all- they start fighting to deal with frustration or being forced to defend themselves- and decide to train to harness that anger and master their movement. Something clicks in their brain to make them actually enjoy the violence and I think it’s because they finally have a say in the participation of this “pain”. It’s therapeutic and freeing to them after they have the power to embrace the suck. This is quite typical tbh & I know because I’m dating someone that used to box/jui jitsu and got in a LOT of trouble in the past due to his strength.
@@alicekat11 generalizing things wayyyy too much
@@Abdullah_D_Luffy but he isnt wrong though, this is what many fighters do
@@alicekat11sit down Alice!
@@romanov7723 you’re saying most fighters don’t want to make a career out of it? Because that’s what Sean was saying, Sean was saying that it wasn’t even about a career, he didn’t even know careers existed. He just felt that the actual sport itself abroad him for fulfillment without even having a future, set in mind towards it
Early childhood trauma, that violence he's talking about I can fully relate to, and that fear that never really goes away, so many of us can relate to.
I Love you brother and I felt you, being vulnerable and so honest helps more people than you could ever know, so thank you Sean.
Mad respect brother
🖤 🐺
Its amazing seeing Sean go from such a rough childhood to a UFC Champion. Its a really incredible story.
makes sense tbh a lot of fighters come from the bottom. hard times create tough men. i think its crazy when middle class guys with a loving family like chael sonnen become dominant fighters. not a lot of people are able to put themselves through the immense level of pain and suffering fighters go through, especially if you’re coming home to a nice cushy life.
trauma doesnt equal being a beast of a person, fucking 0 sense

I grew up with 2 loving parents who had a healthy relationship my entire life. We never really struggled with money, and my childhood was really great for the most part. Hearing this makes me realize how blessed I am. When I was younger I would often judge the “bad kids”, but this gave me a whole new perspective.
I bet you treat your other relationships really well
Thank you for that. I was one of those bad kids. I acted out terribly in school because my home life was hell. I acted out to teachers and the principle to get attention from adults. What I wanted was them to sit me down and say hey, what is going on with you. Some did and I am grateful. I wasn't a bad kid in deep inside though. I just didn't have the social skills needed to guide me nor the nourishment in my belly to keep my mind from finding focusing on school work impossible. I appreciate that you are reconsidering and I hope that maybe some of those I went to school with 40 years ago can do the same.
Theo wearing the ultimate therapy sweater and having this bad ass man break down is epic! If Sean or anyone that knows the man reads this : I'm a grown ass man pleading with you talk a Jordan Peterson type or the man himself to start processing this. Do Not give those fuckers the satisfaction of terrorizing you even when they are gone!

@@BeansMcGriddleyeah I saw this happen to one of my classmates. His home was truly hell yet he still had a soft heart, but he couldn't concentrate on any of his schoolwork or do his homework and missed alot of school too, his teachers gave him absolute hell for this and I used to think "if only you knew what he was going home to"
They'd probably have shut the fuck up then and considered how to actually help him rather than adding to his misery and stress
Man, I don’t think Sean knows how much he’s helping people about trauma. Even a strong individual like him can relate to people who are vulnerable. I commend your strength.
What was he traumatised about? I haven’t heard it yet other than him saying anxiety. He said God killed him? Or

This is as real as it gets. Theo you’re a blessing to this world brother and so is Sean. Takes a lot to share trauma like that.
“You couldn’t pay me to relive my life.” I’ve been saying this to myself for years it’s nice to hear someone else finally say it.

What's sad is we just saw him relive it on camera at least those parts. The trauma unfortunately is us being forced to relive the moments a thousand times 😥

My heart and prayers go out to you Sean. Cling to God brother. He IS the good father you never had. He is the great healer of heart, soul, and spirit. The perfect love you have never known. Grace and Peace to you my brother. Thank you for your transparency. We all love you bro.
The only one that can get him through this is believing in himself. From personal experience!!!
@@cliffordlaport4322 The idea of "believing in ourselves" is wholely satanic. The first lie of the serpent ever told to humanity (to Eve) in the garden. Living without fear and having the will and determination to accomplish a goal is great, but when it comes life's entirety, believing in your own fallible self will leave you empty. 🙏🏻
I'm not a single father man...My dad was tho & he got custody 9f me and my sister. He was a strict fundamentalist (nothing wrong with that), my mom left because of these strict rules.....But I was the oldest and beared,the brunt of my dad's frustration w/wife leaving & I was very mouthy.. I say all that to say, That in this day and age they would say I was abused. But I wouldn't have become the homeschooling father that I am now. I wasn't a teacher before Covid. But all the things I seen as over done punishments is what made me. Diamonds aren't made in a vacuum. Pressure is how we get these gems. The 80/90's were a different time. It's more strange for a man to strangle those emotions down then it is to sit and talk trauma out. I went on to ride bulls and suffered TBI's that led into epileptic seizures. But all of those things I misunderstood as abuse is what give me the spine to stand up and get up everyday. My mother di3d suddenly in 2019 and I used to say the best thing my mother ever did for us, Was that she left us... But now that she has passed on, I see why Mt dad was the way he was. Doesn't chamg3 history but I understand now and my teenage angst is gone. Very good clip Theo.
With you. My experience was every category of abuse, bouts of couch surfing as a kid, sleeping in a business storage room, the bullying that goes along with poverty. Got therapy, which helped, but there was still that hole in my soul. I had an ephifany...free will is love, free will can be influenced, Satan and his legions influenced my hazers to get me to blame God (where Sean is stuck here, which I get, but hope he sees it the adversary who whispered into the mind of his dad)...and that God is who gave me, Sean, you, us the capacity to survive.
We are men, now, and the choice of good or evil is ours, every moment of every day.
Therapy was useful, but seeking Christ earnestly changed everything for me. I didn't know that type of love existed...had no concept of it...or how He would change me. That all that pain of past could be retroactively converted into usefulness..into purpose ..into a gift.
He is the ANTIDOTE, which is why the wicked that has ruled the world has programmed us against ever reading his instruction and love directly for ourselves.
Sorry to say brother but I can’t stand you people that promote god by using someone’s trauma to lure them
Two fucking absolute LEGENDS. Being a man doesn't mean pretending to be tough.. Being a man is doing whatever you can to help those around you when you can see they need it.
This whole conversation is the definition of masculinity. Admitting faults. Opening up but processing it how you need to. And also acknowledging how proud of yourself you are in a way for not doing the same repeat mistakes. We need more of this shit in society today. Great support from theo too
the long silence between them from that moment they were tearing up and just processing, that was so real and unexpected from every other podcast thats just non stop talking. It felt like I was in the room with them than watching 2 people talk.
Stop virtue signaling. Each man can decide for himself how to handle his emotions
As someone who has a four month old son I’m terrified of him having this type of rejection and heartbreak from society
@@alexcameron2352 yes you can. But we are humans. Emotions are to be processed and felt.
Never realized just how f*d my childhood was until I started not feeling bad for men that I knew were tougher than me but luckily that made question why I lacked that empathy and then since I’ve been able actually processed some of these repressed memories
This shit has made me a life long Theo & Strickland fan. I'm sitting here with tears rolling. As a father, a brother and an educator I see the responsibility men carry. Thank you, both of you, for being authentic people. Wow...just wow.

As a father, I think about my son when I watch this. I want to give Sean a big hug. I think about him as a little boy, and I wish I could make him feel protected. Theo handled this so well. We need more men opening up like this. This conversation can help a lot of people.

They call it daddy or mommy issues. Very few people can truly understand what is like to grow up in a household with fucked up parents and grandparents. I can fully relate to Sean. I went to something very similiar.

Respect for both men and how they were able to hold a safe space for this conversation. It is so important for men to be heard and to feel safe when speaking out about their challenges and trauma.
I grew up a lot like this. I'm 43 and once I got into my 40s, I found myself being hyper emotional at times. I mean hearing a song lyric or thinking about my daughter made me break down and I stopped myself from releasing it everytime. A couple weeks ago i actually sat in my truck and cried, I mean cried my eyes out for an hour straight and when it was over, I realized I have been needing that for 35 yrs.
💜💜💜💜
Me too. I went through trauma as a kid and then became a police officer in a big city. There was death and suffering everywhere. I'm not sure about Sean's fixation on killing someone. I had to kill someone and it is a terrible thing, but it was kill or be killed.
In my mid 40's I became emotional, like I had never been. I find myself talking openly about things from the past. I love my wife, so intently that it is painful, now.
I have seen so much death that it permeates my life. I've become an emotional man and I reflect constantly on things I've experienced or done. I am terribly hard on myself, but I have been working on that and getting better.
It seems like I used to rarely feel sadness. I went straight through and kept moving forward, but now I feel sadness from the past, present and future.
This has been going on for about 4 years but it has slowly gotten a little better.
I'm sorry that you are going through this but I'm glad you commented. It's hard for me to understand why I started reflecting so deeply in my 40's. It's been painful but I have grown. Treat yourself with kindness and maybe try to understand yourself. I hope that you can find some growth from this and move forward as a better person with a better life.
I work on that everyday. If you have any thoughts for me, please respond. God bless, my friend.

I have to give it to Sean for being so honest and vulnerable. I can't say enough about the importance of getting "effective " therapy when you suffer from trauma.
I think honest open conversations, approached honestly and with an active listener like this is the most effective therapy, along with pushing yourself physically to achieve set goals
Yes, effective for boys/men often has little to do with “talking it out”, though as we see in this interview that purge valve needs to be opened from time to time, as well.
When I sought help my therapist (who was male, which is important I think) told me I need “find mastery” in something, that most men don’t repair by talking, mostly by doing and finding worth and praise in a hobby or skill others can appreciate.
Putting this out there and still having self respect and confidence thats the best message you can send to young men. Especially young men with trauma. Transmuting that trauma into something productive and leaning into your emotions. Highest respect Sean. God damn you got me crying
Good point 👏
So well said. UFC kind of scares me yet Sean just garnered my full respect
Sean Strickland really is a different kind of animal. Probably the most honest fighter there is.
