My son is in prison right now and I would like to know what is it going to be like for him the first year what should I expect and how can I help him adjust I mean what things should I be doing and what things that I shouldn't be doing that I have been doing since he's been inside but wouldn't be very good for him if I continued you know little things like turning up the music or something like that
@@jumpsuitpablo that’s so nice of you! It’s got to be so overwhelming for parents to know they can’t protect their kids or know what they are going through! You are a very kind person!
Each state has its own politics and rules ,but there should be someone that will show them the rules real quick. It is some peoples home for life and some just passing through so it all depends on the situation.
I don’t know who you are, and I don’t know your story or why you went to prison. But man, you are very soft spoken, and seem like a genuine good guy who’s now making the most out of his second life! So many people are proud of you. Keep it up brotha!!
From the UK 🇬🇧 so excuse my different names for things you would use but you would be an excellent ambassador for young people and teenagers in schools that could take the wrong life choices in life due to peer pressure or other reasons?
Those “wrong choices” are almost always made *for* those young people by abysmal and abusive parenting. This is not my opinion nor is it anecdotal. It is fact based upon decades of peer reviewed research. Further, the prison populations are made up of the same abused children who are now adults, many of whom now suffer from mental illnesses from that same child abuse & neglect. Until this issue is looked in the face these young people will continue to make “bad choices.” This young guy is a serious exception to what usually happens after prison.
Here in the U.S, not everybody is in prison because they screwed up. A good chunk of them are in prison because they had to take the guilty plea deal either because they lacked sufficient funds to afford a defense attorney for a trial, or simply chose the smaller sentence of a few years verses the risk of catching two to four decades if found guilty at trial, which is effectively a life sentence. There's a good chance a prisoner serving time in America was innocent, was set up by police, and is only in prison for being too poor. Its why America has a prison population per capita in just one of our states being multifolds greater than the UK prison population per capita. This guy definately has a felony on his record, which means his life is already over due to barrier laws. Once you go in a prison, you die there. Thats how it goes here in the states.
Would you ever consider interviewing your Mom, sisters, etc. to ask how they prepared emotionally, etc. for your homecoming? As a Mom, I'd be interested in hearing how a son's imprisonment and discharge affected her life. I am sure she loves you very much and is so proud of how well you are doing. BTW, to follow up on other's remarks, I agree that you'd make a very inspirational, motivational speaker.
From personal experience, when my brother went away for 3 years my mom developed empty nest syndrome even though she still had the rest of her kids around her (we're all adults) and she developed a severe case of compulsive hoarding disorder and she never improved. When he was around she had an unstoppable nature about her like as long as she had her oldest son on her side she could do anything, and now even though he's been out longer than he was away for, she is so docile and insecure now she's like an entirely different woman. Take into account my brothers imprisonment caused a huge scandal on her side of the family and she did not take it well.
My first day free after being in Federal prison, I took a 10 hour bus ride into Penn Station in New York City and arrived during rush hour on a weekday and I had a panic attack. Too many people all around me, behind me, everyone bumping into each other. It was CRAZY. It took awhile to get used to all of that, but that day was like going from the frying pan to the fire.
I served almost 4 years. I was overwhelmed also, but you and I are the lucky ones. We had family there to support us. So many inmates have nothing but the clothes they leave in and a bus ticket. I enjoy your content. Keep on making it and I will keep watching!
@@andrewgriffin9244 I’m not sure about every place but Georgia gives you $35, a cheap outfit and a bus ticket. Or such as in my case, I declined because my family mailed my clothes right before I left and picked me up themselves.
@@andrewgriffin9244why wouldn't they? You felt not everyone has family right? Prison is not Jail also. For the most part you're gonna to somewhere hours from home. Sometimes 10 plus hour drives. So yes they give you a bus ticket to test home to report to parole so they can make money off you
Absolutely fascinating to hear your experience. As a retired psychiatric nurse I guess I thought I've "heard it all". However I was fascinated to hear of your reaction to life on the outside. I wish you the best
You would be surprised; I guarantee you haven't heard it all. I spent 3 days inside of a jail, in my opinion jails are worse than prison. And within those 3 days I experienced some messed up stuff, life changing.
I was on a 72 hour psychiatric hold in a psych ward. Dear lord the stories I have. It was like jail but co ed. The women were worse than the men! The screaming all night long. Because they were hearing voices. I had an episode that was the worst one yet where I sliced my ear with a box cutter. It's all healed now. But yeah.
My friends brother who's in prison, he's allowed access to a phone but must pay per minute Sometimes when calling his siblings, he'll get them to play songs over the phone despite it costing a couple bucks per listen It must really very suck not being able to listen to music regularly
When I was 16 I went to a 6 month military academy, extremely strict and difficult to graduate from. First day out driving home I turned the radio on and I heard a really dumb song on, but I remember tearing up a bit at how absolutely amazing it was to hear music after so long. I can't even imagine after 10 years.
I’m so sorry you were sent to such a place. I have 2 very close relatives whose parents sent them to a hellscape military “school” as punishment for their being the worst parents ever. I wouldn’t wish wish these places on any child and they should be completely and utterly illegal., to say the least.
Custer youth corrections center Patrick Henry juvie boot camp south dakota I was there at age 14 1999... again at 15 2000.... 16 in 2001... 4 months 120 days... week long induction....scary hard place...

i stayed in a big 30 day rehab house once with a grip of ppl fresh out of prison. i was doing this early chore one morning before everybody was up, and i had to open a door to a room with a few of those guys sleeping in there. the way they woke up real fast and looked at me i could tell how institutionalized. they had a look not of fight or anger but more of fear and survival. it was a little thing i never forgot.
@@Da5kone001 How do you know it was armed robbery? Anyway, he doesn't deserve any respect regardless. People are conforming to praise this guy, it's pure madness
@@based-p2b your a fucking moron you go to youtube to make up someone is a pedo and then your some big critic to others? court records are public and his name is also public look it up and stop making up nonsense. Get a life
Watching from Melbourne, Australia. I find your videos fascinating. As a mother my heart goes out to you for the struggle you had and still having. Mothers try to take the pain and suffering from their children and breaks our hearts when we can't. Keep moving forward.
They transported me back to my town. They asked who I wanted to call to pick me up. I said no I'm going to walk home. As soon as I got on my mom's street I started running non stop like I was a little kid. The front door was unlocked and I went inside and went to the kitchen. Smelt like home😊. I looked out the kitchen window and she was in the backyard in the garden. I walked out to the back porch and I yelled "mom" and she said my name I ran ran down there and gave her a big hug. I never been in trouble since then. I went I prison on my 18th birthday.. I did 3 Christmases and 3 Thanksgivings in jail. Total of 3 years from 13- 18years old. I'm 39 years old now. Some things never you never forget.
Your husband should of never spent time in jail. The punishment was silly and inhumane! Community service at most, sorry your faimly went through this!
Always find your videos interesting and absorbing. You naturally have the knack of a great story teller, plus a voice that’s easy to listen to. Enjoy being a free citizen :-)
Thank you for sharing your experience. I guess one never knows who they are walking next to or sharing space with ... this reminded me to always be kind and patient...never know what your "neighbor" is experiencing.
I've recently heard a story of a guy from former East Germany who was sent to prison shortly before the German reunification. After serving 10 years, he was released and it felt to him like he had been dropped off at some foreign country. Imagine this guy's struggle on his first day out of prison...
Everyone will have a different experience. Mandela said as he walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to lead to his freedom HE KNEW if he didn't leave his bitterness and hatred behind, he'd STILL be in prison.
I think this post is eye opening. Proves that prison is really a punishment most of us don’t realize. You are always an informed reporter. I’m an 81 year old former science teacher living in asst. living. Later….
I watch you every night lately. But today I just took the day watching you and listening to the Wade Wilson and Kristen phone calls. I am retired due to a true disability....lol. It's not funny but I know a lot of people hear that and say yeah right. Anyway I think you get my meaning. First I want to tell you that I'm so happy you are home and have your place on UA-cam because you are so funny. Now you really are entertaining for me and as I see many more people. When I tell you how nice it is for me to look forward to watching you and looking back watching ones I haven't seen, I really enjoy this because IDK when I have laughed so much. You've really made my day, I have laughed all day watching you and now I run across this one where you're telling about you're first day out of prison and now I've gone from laughing to crying. Somehow I can just imagine what a day that was. Actually I know it had to take a while to get back to normal life. You have come so far and I for one of thousands am so proud of you. My friend you have the love and respect of all UA-camrs. You have come so far in so little time, you're absolutely amazing and please never forget you give a little old lady from Birmingham, Alabama something to look forward to every single day. So I just wanted to say Thank You for sharing your time with all of us that really enjoy watching you every day or night. Your pretty awesome young man!!! You are in my prayers daily. So keep on blowing UA-camband TikTok up!!! I really enjoyed this story. GBU❤💜🙏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯
wow Pablo.. shocking experience. Partly happy and a little sad the massive difference. I'm sure things are feeling more normal every day that passes from the bad times. Great job, now you are known by so many people who really like you and wish you well.
Thank you for sharing your real accounts of prison life. Being a mom, my heart goes out to what you experienced at a young age. Even though 10 years of your life was prison, your life may have been spared from much worse. Now you’re doing much good, be it comedy, sharing a life many of us are unaware, and being a perfect example of turning your life around. Not to mention that you are an excellent storyteller and speaker. I foresee a bright and successful future for you.
Thank you for the educational and generous sharing of your experience. It would be equally as fascinating to learn of some habits you formed in prison that you still practise in your new life. While watching your videos the thought always occurs to me that you would be a very effective speaker in high schools and youth centres. Thank you, again. Smiles and serenity.
You are so right Rosanna, he could possibly turn lives around..even if it is one teen, its worth it. I think high schools should hire him to tell his story and what life is like in prison, its not as glamorous or a status mark as some may think.
I think I am most impressed with your knowledge of technology. It has changed a lot in the ten years you were in prison. I think you are going to be at a million subs quicker than you think. Keep your personal life private, stay honest and humble. You have a unique way about you!
I also think he’s a damn good storyteller. Kind of reminds me of Mrballen, in his ability to really capture a listeners imagination. I think he has the potential to really grow his reach, especially if he eventually branches out from his current niche and explores other topic material.
Im sitting here thinking about my last ten years, ??.. All the events that got me to where i am today, I go back even farther,, to mt early education/ last college,, my marriage, my first child,, Living & experiencing the trials and tribulations of life.. I started to see a fence around me.. ,, I always wondered if there's something on the other side of the fence,, It took money and will power. A certain order of operation,, Eventually landing in Saigon.. Two days before CV 19 hit. Just like the many American soldiers that I met, they didn't want to go home either,, now I know why. So I married a Vietnamese,, and I escaped outside the cage,, I got away from democracy,, capitalism,, television and radio and media,, permits and regulations.. I found my freedom, ,, Thanks for sharing your first half an hour of freedom.. Cheers from Vietnam.. A once( true Canadian)..
Great video as usual Pablo! I was hoping to hear what it was like for you to drive a car after 10 years. My friend was stationed on isolated duty in the Pacific for a few years. When he came back to the U.S. he froze solid the first time he came to an intersection! God is blessing you, you're REALLY good at comedy, acting and especially storytelling. Keep plowing ahead brother man!
I am extremely impressed by your channel and who you are. You need to give yourself a lot of credit for how far you have come in such a short amount of time. I know you're going to be more than alright. I can tell that even if you don't have a formal education, you are very intelligent and strangely I think your whole experience was a massive blessing in disguise for what you can do for others. Its not for nothing that you are blowing up on socials. Thank you for the time you take to make these videos and put yourself out there.
New subscriber, but have watched you several times as a contributor on other channels. This was fascinating insight into your re-entry to general society. Thank you!
I enjoyed this video. Sharing these personal experiences is wonderful, but I can't imagine sharing this much of myself with the world. Is it difficult for you to do? You are educating me on my actions in this video, and thank you for that!!
I, like many, am happy to see you living and loving life as a free man. You're a smart guy who's learned shit the hard way and has come out the other side a better man. Kudos to you from Wales UK 🏴🇬🇧
@@shanesullivan398 I know a few hours in a holding cell isn’t shit. Or even a few hours in a block or cell. 12 year olds laugh through more time. It’s not PTSD. It’s a bad memory.
I found your channel in my feed around 2 months ago and I really enjoy your content. Im 40 now, and have never been to prison, but was arrested twice and one of the times spent about 40 hours in the jail and even got put in a general population block which wasn't supposed to happen in freaked me out. I thought something else happened that I did not know about to keep me in there longer than 24 hours. I got some orange pants and jacket/shirt, a box with Bible and toiletries, flip flops, and my room which had another inmate. I have no idea why I got all of this, but was released around 12 hrs after put in general pop. That was long enough for me, and I had already told an inmate that they can have everything in my box and when I left he wasn't close by so someone else asked for it and I gave it to them since I had to leave, but the other guy I said could have it, came out of nowhere and took the box that I said he could have. I was shocked how they were going at it over some toilet paper, socks, toothbrush, and whatever else was in it. That was long enough for me to be in there the 2nd time when it just wasn't the large holding tank. Anyway, I enjoy listening to you and am looking forward to your videos, and happy to see it looks like you've got your life on track after your stay. I hope you continue enjoying life and wish your channel much success.
I watching this in August 2024 I recently found your channel and need I say I’m obsessed with your videos and watching some old ones to get to know you better!!! You’re just a funny awesome guy !!!!
Hi Pablo 👋 I'm from the @DutyRon family. I've been watching you ever since you were on his show. I have to say that out of all the stories I've heard you tell, this one right here really grabbed me. It literally brought me to tears with anxiety. I have never even given it a thought about all the things you spoke about. I've always just thought that once someone is released they are so happy and life is great. Boy was I wrong. Not that you weren't happy, of course. Your story has given me way more compassion for people who are released from prison. Thank you for sharing this story. It was a huge eye-opener for me. Keep up the great work and I wish you all the best for your future. You're loved and worth it! 👍💙
🇨🇦 you’re going places my young friend ! You’ve paid your dues and now you can let your heart soar ! Keep shaking off those surroundings of , I believe concrete just sucks the life out of a person . Don’t forget to take time out to just sit on the grass in the sunshine ! THANKYOU for saving other young people from going to prison with your brutal honesty ! I truly believe in you !
Pablo, I truly have the most utmost respect for you. You’re honest about your experiences and you don’t sugarcoat it. Your voice is the perfect storyteller. If that makes sense. Keep sharing your experiences. ❤❤❤
Your stories are interesting and as someone who has never experienced what you have I had no idea how challenging being released from prison could be for someone. I commend you for turning you life around and it's great that you have a good support team. Keep up the good work.
I did 5 years. My first day my dad picked me up at the train station. I lived in a didferenf state. I ate chinese food wirh my family,got a Bj, seen my grandma and went to my moms house. I was 28 when i got out. Im 41 now and aint beem back!
Your channel and content is SO UNIQUE! So real and refreshingly different than other channels. You’re a great storyteller! And you have such fascinating stories to tell. I’ve been binge-watching your videos all night.
Awe! That kinda made me a lil sad for u because u weren't used to being treated like a human being anymore. U probably didn't even feel worthy of being treated with kindness at 1st when u got out. Awe I'm so happy & so glad u chose the right path when u got out. That's so great. God bless u paul.
PABLO! You have been wonderfully open and candid in your recollections, which is in many ways very brave of you to offer those parts of yourself for our education. Without any theatrical flavor, your straightforward presentation was all the more compelling, and I found myself surprised that it caused tears in my eyes to simply hear the truth of that portion of your life. Your life now speaks well of you, and I genuinely wish you continued positive growth and success in your pursuits.
Pablo, your story touched me. You are an excellent example of people who can rehabilitate and live a productive life (if they want to). You are one of my favorites, You Tuber, so keep up the excellent work. Many blessings your way. Live in the present. The past is just that, the past. 😉
My husband was in County jail for a year. I thought that was awful enough! He refused visitors, even me. He said it was to hard to see me walk out the door. After he got out. His first two months he spent most of his time in our bedroom. He couldn't handle large spaces. We had a 5 bedroom farm house. He didn't know how to handle our 7 kids. He was the disaplinarian and the kids playmate before he went to jail. When he came home, he'd play with them, but no longer disaplined them! He'd say, "Go tell Mom what you did!" So I remained disaplinarian for quite some time. 😢 He finally had to as I worked. He stayed home with the kids. I'd come home to some interesting meals for supper. Everything had Ramen Noodles in it. Or it was grilled cheese and tomatoe soup! This lasted a while. He got better as he watched me cook. He didn't like the kids rough housing and wrestling. We had 3 boys and a son that was two. It really bothered him. It took awhile for him to get used to the kids playing outside with friends. They had to check in every half hour at first, then every hour. He never got past the checking in thing! Yes, there are many little things that took time to get through. The kids and I were thrilled to have him home, so we just went on with our lives and let him adjust. It's been almost 20 years now since he got out....the reason he got arrested was so stupid to begin with. I was in labor with our last son and we had two vehicles. We were going through hard times. Money was tight. One of the cars was broke down the plates were expired on the other. So, he switched plates. Not knowing they'd passed a law in January that you couldn't switch plates on the vehicals you owned. We were on our way to the hospital. An officer pulled us over for the plates. They called an ambulance for me and took him to jail. So he missed our son's birth. After I got out of the hospital, I bailed him out. It took us a year to get a court date. He spent the whole next year in jail. His only regret was missing our son's second year of life!!!! So I understand a little of what you went through. I'm glad your adjusting. I know they'll still be bumps in the road. I have enjoyed the few videos of yours, that I have watched! ❤❤❤
They lock people up for nothing now. It’s a business but most people don’t get it. People who don’t experience it think WE GOTTA BE TOUGH ON THEM CRIMINALS. as of sending someome to live with only other criminals would somehow make them better lol. It’s a full on business now. There is no rehabilitation. Each jail gets paid by the state PER INMATE HOUSED DAILY. Each prison gets paid federally. They make an astounding amount. My small ass county with like under 50k people made 12 million last year. Everyone is asleep at that wheel imo. Wanting people locked up agreeing to pay taxes for the housing of mostly offenders with these dumb crimes. America is locking more people up than any country ever has before. By a WIDE MARGIN. it is not helping. Yes lock up violent people or predators in general, small time thieves petty criminals driving offenses NO
You mentioned your stepdad, just curious where is your preacher father? I'm happy for you that you answered your wake-up call & decided to turn your life around. I'm a huge fan of standup comedy, I'm sure you'll find your way - best of luck to you!
I'm glad I came across your channel. You've got a great outlook and perspective on things. Much to learn from you. Keep up the great videos and build your base. People need some good positive words these days and thanks for offering yours. I'll keep watching.
love hearing your stories. i’ve been 5150d before and even though i wasn’t in a jail a lot of your stories remind me of similar feelings i once and still have. i find it so interesting how being institutionalized can change you. i still have nightmares all the time that i’m being held against my will again for no reason. being put in an environment like that changes you. i can’t imagine doing 10 years in a prison you’re an inspiration!! thank you for sharing with us
I was on a psych ward for 3 months. I felt that I was doing something wrong if I used the kitchen unsupervised for the first few days. I missed being there sometimes for a few months. It's a big adjustment. You go from sharing a room, having your blood pressure and temperature taken each day, being part of a tight knit community where everyone knows everyone's business and where you are with people most of the time to being alone a lot more, being part of a less close community, you get a lot less attention and a lot less social interaction.
I might get a little hate for this but this is really similar to how I felt when I first got out of the Army back in 2019. I don't want to compare prison to the military but mentally, the military was prison to me and I went through a very similar transitional process my first month or so as a civilian. It was tough. I really find this video interesting and the rest of your channel Pablo! Keep up the great work!
Hey, I thought the same thing. I went in way back in 2005, and lots sound the same. I've never been to prison but I've been to jail a few times (I was good at not paying traffic fines and getting pulled over on Fridays when Monday was a holiday) and my late husband was in jail for a handful of months, his experience was similar to my basic training experience
I hear you. Prison, like Basic Training is considered “A total Institution.” I was definitely institutionalized by the time I got out of Basic. (Not to make light of people who served time.)
We are so glad that you came out of prison to be the person you are today. Granted, we don't know you in person, but you are seemingly kind, well spoken, soft evened out voice and funny as heck! We just know the type of person you are, and we are happy to be a part of your journey. ❤
Im 9 months away from getting off parole, it's been a long road for me and it hasn't gotten much easier. I hope you can find your peace brother there is no feeling like leaving prison, but staying out of prison and keeping away from things and people can feel like torture sometimes. I'll pray for you brother, you got this bruh.
Been a felony PO for my State for coming up on 5 years. Just wanted to stop by and give you some words of encouragement. You’ve made it this far, you can make it further. Take each day as it comes and look back at how far you’ve come. Good luck to you.
Your ability to just be candid and straightforward about your experience helps so many people- it's weird for me because I have been on the opposite side of your situation and my husband has served time in SCDC as well But... he would never discuss it after he was released. Sometimes not even while he was there - there were so many things I wanted to understand and he wouldn't talk about (while he was there or when he got out) It would have helped to know what exactly to look for...what the triggers were for him ❤❤
I have watched this twice Paul and I am sooooooo very happy you have rejoined the other side again!!!! You are going to do 👍 great!!!! You have a very good heart and that is really what we all have to have to be good people!! I am very happy that you are home to stay!!! God bless you!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Joannie
I just saw this post even though it’s a year old but I still wanted to say it was very interesting and much appreciated. I was listening to every word. I have no idea what prison beds are like except a few online pictures. I was hoping you were going to mention your experience sleeping in a real bed the first night you were home or waking up leisurely the next morning. I bet that was a wild experience. Thanks for sharing the story.
I enjoyed this. I’d like to hear how things went after a month etc. I would imagine it took quite awhile for everything to seem “normal.” Do you ever still get triggered by certain things?
I thank God for you, Pablo. I love your channel. I hope you get right with God, if you haven’t already! Keep up the good work bro! You’re very bright, funny, and inspiring.
Thanks for sharing your experience and I would enjoy hearing more about how it was for you to adjust back into society. All I can say is that I am so happy for you that you were given a second chance at life in the "free" world. I'm sure you appreciate every moment that many people take for granted. Imagine all the great things that are coming to you in the future.
Wow! So many things we would never think about! So many things we take for granted become foreign to anyone coming back from prison! So much has changed! Were Skinny jeans for guys even a thing before?! Thanks for your perspective! It’s fascinating! Definitely do more videos on the weeks months and a year out maybe! I think it might help people help someone else who’s going to be in a similar position.. how they can help people they know who get out.
Great to understand what it is like after you are back to the world. I would like to know how it was to socialize with friends, look for employment, learn how to enjoy a chill day without being directed your every move.
Would love to hear more stories. You’re very articulate, self reflective and interesting. Found you cos I watched the Murdaugh trials and your videos were in my recommended videos. Kia Kaha (stand strong) from New Zealand :) 💕🌷🌸🇳🇿
Brother… I soooo understand this. I did 21 years in Vadoc and the first place my wife and I went to eat was Crackerbarrell. Which is now our staple to go out to. Much respect to you sir.
My son is in prison right now and I would like to know what is it going to be like for him the first year what should I expect and how can I help him adjust I mean what things should I be doing and what things that I shouldn't be doing that I have been doing since he's been inside but wouldn't be very good for him if I continued you know little things like turning up the music or something like that
I’m very empathetic to this and would be glad to give advice… please email me pablotube66@gmail

The answers to your questions would be a great video subject idea, very interesting. All the best to your son and I hope he goes home soon.
Your son is lucky to have his mama who cares and loves him.
I like the way you tell stories. I sense no BS, and there is no unnecessary filler humor. Just general natural humor.
And he knows how to communicate without dropping a profanity every third word, like most UA-cam creators because they think it's cool.

A good chunk of them are in prison because they had to take the guilty plea deal either because they lacked sufficient funds to afford a defense attorney for a trial, or simply chose the smaller sentence of a few years verses the risk of catching two to four decades if found guilty at trial, which is effectively a life sentence. There's a good chance a prisoner serving time in America was innocent, was set up by police, and is only in prison for being too poor. Its why America has a prison population per capita in just one of our states being multifolds greater than the UK prison population per capita. This guy definately has a felony on his record, which means his life is already over due to barrier laws. Once you go in a prison, you die there. Thats how it goes here in the states.
Rewatching 2024! Look how far you've come brother! Proud of you and the community you've built! Big fan from Tennessee ❤
Would you ever consider interviewing your Mom, sisters, etc. to ask how they prepared emotionally, etc. for your homecoming? As a Mom, I'd be interested in hearing how a son's imprisonment and discharge affected her life. I am sure she loves you very much and is so proud of how well you are doing.
BTW, to follow up on other's remarks, I agree that you'd make a very inspirational, motivational speaker.
Mothers are also imprisoned, actually on the outside. But life HAS to go on our choice how to grow from all this.
What Linda Mae said! 💯☝️❤
Is he ready to stop pillaging and robbing people?
@@evelyncase681 true its like death for any family..
From personal experience, when my brother went away for 3 years my mom developed empty nest syndrome even though she still had the rest of her kids around her (we're all adults) and she developed a severe case of compulsive hoarding disorder and she never improved. When he was around she had an unstoppable nature about her like as long as she had her oldest son on her side she could do anything, and now even though he's been out longer than he was away for, she is so docile and insecure now she's like an entirely different woman. Take into account my brothers imprisonment caused a huge scandal on her side of the family and she did not take it well.
My first day free after being in Federal prison, I took a 10 hour bus ride into Penn Station in New York City and arrived during rush hour on a weekday and I had a panic attack. Too many people all around me, behind me, everyone bumping into each other. It was CRAZY. It took awhile to get used to all of that, but that day was like going from the frying pan to the fire.
I served almost 4 years. I was overwhelmed also, but you and I are the lucky ones. We had family there to support us. So many inmates have nothing but the clothes they leave in and a bus ticket. I enjoy your content. Keep on making it and I will keep watching!
They give them a bus ticket ?
@@andrewgriffin9244 I’m not sure about every place but Georgia gives you $35, a cheap outfit and a bus ticket. Or such as in my case, I declined because my family mailed my clothes right before I left and picked me up themselves.
@@andrewgriffin9244 Afaik just some money to get one... based on their work inside.
You're lucky cause your a girl who is white
@@andrewgriffin9244why wouldn't they? You felt not everyone has family right? Prison is not Jail also. For the most part you're gonna to somewhere hours from home. Sometimes 10 plus hour drives. So yes they give you a bus ticket to test home to report to parole so they can make money off you
Well done for being so genuine and grounded. You are a likable guy and I hope you are proud of yourself.
Absolutely fascinating to hear your experience. As a retired psychiatric nurse I guess I thought I've "heard it all". However I was fascinated to hear of your reaction to life on the outside. I wish you the best
You would be surprised; I guarantee you haven't heard it all. I spent 3 days inside of a jail, in my opinion jails are worse than prison.
And within those 3 days I experienced some messed up stuff, life changing.
I was on a 72 hour psychiatric hold in a psych ward. Dear lord the stories I have. It was like jail but co ed. The women were worse than the men! The screaming all night long. Because they were hearing voices. I had an episode that was the worst one yet where I sliced my ear with a box cutter. It's all healed now. But yeah.
I’m so proud of you for staying on the right path and trying to help others. .
My friends brother who's in prison, he's allowed access to a phone but must pay per minute
Sometimes when calling his siblings, he'll get them to play songs over the phone despite it costing a couple bucks per listen
It must really very suck not being able to listen to music regularly
When I was 16 I went to a 6 month military academy, extremely strict and difficult to graduate from. First day out driving home I turned the radio on and I heard a really dumb song on, but I remember tearing up a bit at how absolutely amazing it was to hear music after so long. I can't even imagine after 10 years.
I’m so sorry you were sent to such a place. I have 2 very close relatives whose parents sent them to a hellscape military “school” as punishment for their being the worst parents ever. I wouldn’t wish wish these places on any child and they should be completely and utterly illegal., to say the least.
Lol softttyy

i stayed in a big 30 day rehab house once with a grip of ppl fresh out of prison.
i was doing this early chore one morning before everybody was up, and i had to open a door to a room with a few of those guys sleeping in there.
the way they woke up real fast and looked at me i could tell how institutionalized. they had a look not of fight or anger but more of fear and survival.
it was a little thing i never forgot.
Thanks for being so open and genuine. I loved the waitress part.
This was personal and powerful. Thanks for humanizing the experience.
@Adrienne Cruz It surely is. I believe this is one of the best (at least IMO) videos Paul has posted yet.
Great story Pablo. So glad your out in the free world. Bless you.
You are so smart and observant about the changes you have gone thru. Thank you so much for your honesty and your insight.
And look at you now my Man!! I don't know you but I'm very proud of you!
Would you still be proud of him if you found out he went to prison for 10 years for being a predator?
@@based-p2b armed robbery is a predator offence ?
@@Da5kone001 How do you know it was armed robbery?
Anyway, he doesn't deserve any respect regardless. People are conforming to praise this guy, it's pure madness

Watching from Melbourne, Australia. I find your videos fascinating. As a mother my heart goes out to you for the struggle you had and still having. Mothers try to take the pain and suffering from their children and breaks our hearts when we can't. Keep moving forward.
They transported me back to my town. They asked who I wanted to call to pick me up. I said no I'm going to walk home. As soon as I got on my mom's street I started running non stop like I was a little kid. The front door was unlocked and I went inside and went to the kitchen. Smelt like home😊. I looked out the kitchen window and she was in the backyard in the garden. I walked out to the back porch and I yelled "mom" and she said my name I ran ran down there and gave her a big hug. I never been in trouble since then. I went I prison on my 18th birthday.. I did 3 Christmases and 3 Thanksgivings in jail. Total of 3 years from 13- 18years old. I'm 39 years old now. Some things never you never forget.
Atta boy!

Your husband should of never spent time in jail. The punishment was silly and inhumane! Community service at most, sorry your faimly went through this!
Always find your videos interesting and absorbing. You naturally have the knack of a great story teller, plus a voice that’s easy to listen to. Enjoy being a free citizen :-)
Thank you for sharing your experience. I guess one never knows who they are walking next to or sharing space with ... this reminded me to always be kind and patient...never know what your "neighbor" is experiencing.
I've recently heard a story of a guy from former East Germany who was sent to prison shortly before the German reunification. After serving 10 years, he was released and it felt to him like he had been dropped off at some foreign country. Imagine this guy's struggle on his first day out of prison...
Everyone will have a different experience. Mandela said as he walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to lead to his freedom HE KNEW if he didn't leave his bitterness and hatred behind, he'd STILL be in prison.

Who is watching this video on or after summer 2024, wondering who was putting money on his kiosk 😅 Love you Pablo!!
Meeee lol
Me!!!
😂😂😂
Kiosk for the win!🥇
Meee
I think this post is eye opening. Proves that prison is really a punishment most of us don’t realize. You are always an informed reporter. I’m an 81 year old former science teacher living in asst. living. Later….
I watch you every night lately. But today I just took the day watching you and listening to the Wade Wilson and Kristen phone calls. I am retired due to a true disability....lol. It's not funny but I know a lot of people hear that and say yeah right. Anyway I think you get my meaning. First I want to tell you that I'm so happy you are home and have your place on UA-cam because you are so funny. Now you really are entertaining for me and as I see many more people. When I tell you how nice it is for me to look forward to watching you and looking back watching ones I haven't seen, I really enjoy this because IDK when I have laughed so much. You've really made my day, I have laughed all day watching you and now I run across this one where you're telling about you're first day out of prison and now I've gone from laughing to crying. Somehow I can just imagine what a day that was. Actually I know it had to take a while to get back to normal life. You have come so far and I for one of thousands am so proud of you. My friend you have the love and respect of all UA-camrs. You have come so far in so little time, you're absolutely amazing and please never forget you give a little old lady from Birmingham, Alabama something to look forward to every single day. So I just wanted to say Thank You for sharing your time with all of us that really enjoy watching you every day or night. Your pretty awesome young man!!! You are in my prayers daily. So keep on blowing UA-camband TikTok up!!! I really enjoyed this story. GBU❤💜🙏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯💯
wow Pablo.. shocking experience. Partly happy and a little sad the massive difference. I'm sure things are feeling more normal every day that passes from the bad times. Great job, now you are known by so many people who really like you and wish you well.
🇨🇦 I really appreciated this video. And I can completely understand how, and why, you would feel the way you did. Keep on keeping on!
Thank you for sharing your real accounts of prison life. Being a mom, my heart goes out to what you experienced at a young age. Even though 10 years of your life was prison, your life may have been spared from much worse. Now you’re doing much good, be it comedy, sharing a life many of us are unaware, and being a perfect example of turning your life around. Not to mention that you are an excellent storyteller and speaker. I foresee a bright and successful future for you.
Thank you for the educational and generous sharing of your experience. It would be equally as fascinating to learn of some habits you formed in prison that you still practise in your new life. While watching your videos the thought always occurs to me that you would be a very effective speaker in high schools and youth centres. Thank you, again. Smiles and serenity.
You are so right Rosanna, he could possibly turn lives around..even if it is one teen, its worth it.
I think high schools should hire him to tell his story and what life is like in prison, its not as glamorous or a status mark as some may think.
I think I am most impressed with your knowledge of technology. It has changed a lot in the ten years you were in prison. I think you are going to be at a million subs quicker than you think. Keep your personal life private, stay honest and humble. You have a unique way about you!
Your story times are awesome! I’m sure some of them are hard to relive but thanks for sharing with us 😊
I also think he’s a damn good storyteller. Kind of reminds me of Mrballen, in his ability to really capture a listeners imagination.
I think he has the potential to really grow his reach, especially if he eventually branches out from his current niche and explores other topic material.
I don't know why but I was so happy to hear your mum and stepdad came to pick you up. Really hope your band with them is healing
Enjoy your awesome videos! You’re such a nice guy and sooo kind.
Thanks for doing this one @Pablo!
Im sitting here thinking about my last ten years, ??..
All the events that got me to where i am today,
I go back even farther,, to mt early education/ last college,, my marriage, my first child,,
Living & experiencing the trials and tribulations of life..
I started to see a fence around me.. ,, I always wondered if there's something on the other side of the fence,,
It took money and will power.
A certain order of operation,,
Eventually landing in Saigon..
Two days before CV 19 hit.
Just like the many American soldiers that I met, they didn't want to go home either,, now I know why.
So I married a Vietnamese,, and I escaped outside the cage,,
I got away from democracy,, capitalism,, television and radio and media,, permits and regulations..
I found my freedom, ,,
Thanks for sharing your first half an hour of freedom..
Cheers from Vietnam..

My mother and I love your videos and I wish you the very best in your new life🌞🧡
Great video as usual Pablo! I was hoping to hear what it was like for you to drive a car after 10 years. My friend was stationed on isolated duty in the Pacific for a few years. When he came back to the U.S. he froze solid the first time he came to an intersection! God is blessing you, you're REALLY good at comedy, acting and especially storytelling. Keep plowing ahead brother man!
I’m so glad you are out and doing well! You’re a good man 🤘🏼
Hey JSP! I've been looking forward to this one. I remember what my experience was like🙂 Watching now😎
Hey Tim! Good hearing from ya again let me know if anything sounds similar to what you went through!
❤❤ thank you
I am extremely impressed by your channel and who you are. You need to give yourself a lot of credit for how far you have come in such a short amount of time. I know you're going to be more than alright. I can tell that even if you don't have a formal education, you are very intelligent and strangely I think your whole experience was a massive blessing in disguise for what you can do for others. Its not for nothing that you are blowing up on socials. Thank you for the time you take to make these videos and put yourself out there.
New subscriber, but have watched you several times as a contributor on other channels.
This was fascinating insight into your re-entry to general society. Thank you!
You're one brave man, sharing your most personal experiences. Proud to be a sub on your channel!!
I enjoyed this video. Sharing these personal experiences is wonderful, but I can't imagine sharing this much of myself with the world. Is it difficult for you to do? You are educating me on my actions in this video, and thank you for that!!
I, like many, am happy to see you living and loving life as a free man. You're a smart guy who's learned shit the hard way and has come out the other side a better man. Kudos to you from Wales UK 🏴🇬🇧
It's so sad when young ppl end up wrecking their lives. I'm glad u did the time & never want to do that again! GOD BLESS!
It's a mad experience...been locked up for a few hours and I never wore those same clothes again. PTSD is real no matter how long the trauma lasted.
😂😂 a few hours.
@@taylorrenee4880 just curious. What do you know?
@@shanesullivan398 I know a few hours in a holding cell isn’t shit. Or even a few hours in a block or cell. 12 year olds laugh through more time. It’s not PTSD. It’s a bad memory.

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Hello from London 🇬🇧Thank you for sharing your story, Pablo. Love your channel - glad to part of the Kiosk Klub/JSP community 😊
I found your channel in my feed around 2 months ago and I really enjoy your content. Im 40 now, and have never been to prison, but was arrested twice and one of the times spent about 40 hours in the jail and even got put in a general population block which wasn't supposed to happen in freaked me out. I thought something else happened that I did not know about to keep me in there longer than 24 hours. I got some orange pants and jacket/shirt, a box with Bible and toiletries, flip flops, and my room which had another inmate. I have no idea why I got all of this, but was released around 12 hrs after put in general pop. That was long enough for me, and I had already told an inmate that they can have everything in my box and when I left he wasn't close by so someone else asked for it and I gave it to them since I had to leave, but the other guy I said could have it, came out of nowhere and took the box that I said he could have. I was shocked how they were going at it over some toilet paper, socks, toothbrush, and whatever else was in it. That was long enough for me to be in there the 2nd time when it just wasn't the large holding tank. Anyway, I enjoy listening to you and am looking forward to your videos, and happy to see it looks like you've got your life on track after your stay. I hope you continue enjoying life and wish your channel much success.
I watching this in August 2024 I recently found your channel and need I say I’m obsessed with your videos and watching some old ones to get to know you better!!! You’re just a funny awesome guy !!!!
Sounds like a little kindness (from the waitress) was the first thing that surprised ya. Most of us take it for granted. Ty 4 pointing it out.
Hi Pablo 👋 I'm from the @DutyRon family. I've been watching you ever since you were on his show. I have to say that out of all the stories I've heard you tell, this one right here really grabbed me. It literally brought me to tears with anxiety. I have never even given it a thought about all the things you spoke about. I've always just thought that once someone is released they are so happy and life is great. Boy was I wrong. Not that you weren't happy, of course. Your story has given me way more compassion for people who are released from prison. Thank you for sharing this story. It was a huge eye-opener for me. Keep up the great work and I wish you all the best for your future. You're loved and worth it! 👍💙
🇨🇦 you’re going places my young friend ! You’ve paid your dues and now you can let your heart soar ! Keep shaking off those surroundings of , I believe concrete just sucks the life out of a person . Don’t forget to take time out to just sit on the grass in the sunshine !
THANKYOU for saving other young people from going to prison with your brutal honesty ! I truly believe in you !
Pablo, I truly have the most utmost respect for you. You’re honest about your experiences and you don’t sugarcoat it. Your voice is the perfect storyteller. If that makes sense. Keep sharing your experiences. ❤❤❤
Yes , he has a story teller voice like Ballen .
He has the best voice and is such a good story teller.
Your stories are interesting and as someone who has never experienced what you have I had no idea how challenging being released from prison could be for someone. I commend you for turning you life around and it's great that you have a good support team. Keep up the good work.
I did 5 years. My first day my dad picked me up at the train station. I lived in a didferenf state. I ate chinese food wirh my family,got a Bj, seen my grandma and went to my moms house. I was 28 when i got out. Im 41 now and aint beem back!
Your channel and content is SO UNIQUE! So real and refreshingly different than other channels. You’re a great storyteller! And you have such fascinating stories to tell. I’ve been binge-watching your videos all night.
This was interesting. I think it would be cool to see more interviews with stories like this.
Awe! That kinda made me a lil sad for u because u weren't used to being treated like a human being anymore. U probably didn't even feel worthy of being treated with kindness at 1st when u got out. Awe I'm so happy & so glad u chose the right path when u got out. That's so great. God bless u paul.
PABLO! You have been wonderfully open and candid in your recollections, which is in many ways very brave of you to offer those parts of yourself for our education. Without any theatrical flavor, your straightforward presentation was all the more compelling, and I found myself surprised that it caused tears in my eyes to simply hear the truth of that portion of your life. Your life now speaks well of you, and I genuinely wish you continued positive growth and success in your pursuits.
Another GREAT video; please continue these stories of getting back to “normal” life after 10 years locked up; fascinating
Pablo, your story touched me. You are an excellent example of people who can rehabilitate and live a productive life (if they want to). You are one of my favorites, You Tuber, so keep up the excellent work. Many blessings your way. Live in the present. The past is just that, the past. 😉
You seem like a very nice person and I wish you the best for your future! Thank you for sharing your experiences.
My husband was in County jail for a year. I thought that was awful enough! He refused visitors, even me. He said it was to hard to see me walk out the door. After he got out. His first two months he spent most of his time in our bedroom. He couldn't handle large spaces. We had a 5 bedroom farm house. He didn't know how to handle our 7 kids. He was the disaplinarian and the kids playmate before he went to jail. When he came home, he'd play with them, but no longer disaplined them! He'd say, "Go tell Mom what you did!" So I remained disaplinarian for quite some time. 😢 He finally had to as I worked. He stayed home with the kids. I'd come home to some interesting meals for supper. Everything had Ramen Noodles in it. Or it was grilled cheese and tomatoe soup! This lasted a while. He got better as he watched me cook. He didn't like the kids rough housing and wrestling. We had 3 boys and a son that was two. It really bothered him. It took awhile for him to get used to the kids playing outside with friends. They had to check in every half hour at first, then every hour. He never got past the checking in thing! Yes, there are many little things that took time to get through. The kids and I were thrilled to have him home, so we just went on with our lives and let him adjust. It's been almost 20 years now since he got out....the reason he got arrested was so stupid to begin with. I was in labor with our last son and we had two vehicles. We were going through hard times. Money was tight. One of the cars was broke down the plates were expired on the other. So, he switched plates. Not knowing they'd passed a law in January that you couldn't switch plates on the vehicals you owned. We were on our way to the hospital. An officer pulled us over for the plates. They called an ambulance for me and took him to jail. So he missed our son's birth. After I got out of the hospital, I bailed him out. It took us a year to get a court date. He spent the whole next year in jail. His only regret was missing our son's second year of life!!!! So I understand a little of what you went through. I'm glad your adjusting. I know they'll still be bumps in the road. I have enjoyed the few videos of yours, that I have watched! ❤❤❤
They lock people up for nothing now. It’s a business but most people don’t get it. People who don’t experience it think WE GOTTA BE TOUGH ON THEM CRIMINALS. as of sending someome to live with only other criminals would somehow make them better lol. It’s a full on business now. There is no rehabilitation. Each jail gets paid by the state PER INMATE HOUSED DAILY. Each prison gets paid federally. They make an astounding amount. My small ass county with like under 50k people made 12 million last year. Everyone is asleep at that wheel imo. Wanting people locked up agreeing to pay taxes for the housing of mostly offenders with these dumb crimes. America is locking more people up than any country ever has before. By a WIDE MARGIN. it is not helping. Yes lock up violent people or predators in general, small time thieves petty criminals driving offenses NO
You mentioned your stepdad, just curious where is your preacher father?
I'm happy for you that you answered your wake-up call & decided to turn your life around. I'm a huge fan of standup comedy, I'm sure you'll find your way - best of luck to you!
I'm glad I came across your channel.
You've got a great outlook and perspective on things.
Much to learn from you.
Keep up the great videos and build your base.
People need some good positive words these days and thanks for offering yours.
I'll keep watching.
love hearing your stories. i’ve been 5150d before and even though i wasn’t in a jail a lot of your stories remind me of similar feelings i once and still have. i find it so interesting how being institutionalized can change you. i still have nightmares all the time that i’m being held against my will again for no reason. being put in an environment like that changes you. i can’t imagine doing 10 years in a prison you’re an inspiration!! thank you for sharing with us
If you don’t mind me asking what’s a 5150d? I’m assuming it’s probably like being sectioned (we have it in Mass and it’s in a couple other states)
@@sconartist 5150 is an involuntary psychiatric hold. aka mental hospital😅
@@Angel-mt2vr that’s a section 12 in mass, 72 hold (they juice you up with Thorazine)
@@sconartist oof yeah it’s 72 hour hold here too. didn’t get any of that though just increased my regular meds to make me a zombie lol
I was on a psych ward for 3 months.
I felt that I was doing something wrong if I used the kitchen unsupervised for the first few days.
I missed being there sometimes for a few months. It's a big adjustment. You go from sharing a room, having your blood pressure and temperature taken each day, being part of a tight knit community where everyone knows everyone's business and where you are with people most of the time to being alone a lot more, being part of a less close community, you get a lot less attention and a lot less social interaction.
You did your time, I can tell your sincere. Thank you for being so honest and open. Love you Jumpsuit Pablo and welcome back.
I might get a little hate for this but this is really similar to how I felt when I first got out of the Army back in 2019. I don't want to compare prison to the military but mentally, the military was prison to me and I went through a very similar transitional process my first month or so as a civilian. It was tough. I really find this video interesting and the rest of your channel Pablo! Keep up the great work!
I'm a jr convict meaning lots of jail but no prison my brother was in military the amount similarities in mindset and PTSD is crazy
Hey, I thought the same thing. I went in way back in 2005, and lots sound the same. I've never been to prison but I've been to jail a few times (I was good at not paying traffic fines and getting pulled over on Fridays when Monday was a holiday) and my late husband was in jail for a handful of months, his experience was similar to my basic training experience
I hear you. Prison, like Basic Training is considered “A total Institution.” I was definitely institutionalized by the time I got out of Basic. (Not to make light of people who served time.)
We are so glad that you came out of prison to be the person you are today. Granted, we don't know you in person, but you are seemingly kind, well spoken, soft evened out voice and funny as heck! We just know the type of person you are, and we are happy to be a part of your journey. ❤
Im 9 months away from getting off parole, it's been a long road for me and it hasn't gotten much easier. I hope you can find your peace brother there is no feeling like leaving prison, but staying out of prison and keeping away from things and people can feel like torture sometimes. I'll pray for you brother, you got this bruh.
Been a felony PO for my State for coming up on 5 years. Just wanted to stop by and give you some words of encouragement. You’ve made it this far, you can make it further. Take each day as it comes and look back at how far you’ve come. Good luck to you.
Your ability to just be candid and straightforward about your experience helps so many people- it's weird for me because I have been on the opposite side of your situation and my husband has served time in SCDC as well
But... he would never discuss it after he was released. Sometimes not even while he was there - there were so many things I wanted to understand and he wouldn't talk about (while he was there or when he got out)
It would have helped to know what exactly to look for...what the triggers were for him ❤❤
Great story! Super happy for you Pablo xo
I have watched this twice Paul and I am sooooooo very happy you have rejoined the other side again!!!! You are going to do 👍 great!!!! You have a very good heart and that is really what we all have to have to be good people!! I am very happy that you are home to stay!!! God bless you!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Joannie
Most of us never even really thought about how it feels being released from prison from the prisoners' point of view. This is deep. 2-thumbs up.
Thanks Pablo. Your channel, and your personality is 1 in 100000.
We all take so much for granted. Thank you for sharing your experiences. 🙂
I just saw this post even though it’s a year old but I still wanted to say it was very interesting and much appreciated. I was listening to every word. I have no idea what prison beds are like except a few online pictures. I was hoping you were going to mention your experience sleeping in a real bed the first night you were home or waking up leisurely the next morning. I bet that was a wild experience. Thanks for sharing the story.
I enjoyed this. I’d like to hear how things went after a month etc. I would imagine it took quite awhile for everything to seem “normal.” Do you ever still get triggered by certain things?
I thank God for you, Pablo. I love your channel. I hope you get right with God, if you haven’t already! Keep up the good work bro! You’re very bright, funny, and inspiring.
Thank you for sharing all of your experiences ❤

Hey Lori! Me too🇨🇦
Watching from Vancouver BC
Hi. I'm watching from Calgary Alberta. Love listening to Pablo. His voice is so relaxing. Great story.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Would love to hear more of your story.
Thank you for sharing your life story. Very interesting! I got entertained! I wish you all the very best in life...LIFE ITSELF!
Oh Pablo, you broke my heaŕt. I'm so glad that you're doing well. You hàve a heart as big as all outdoors.
Thanks for sharing your experience and I would enjoy hearing more about how it was for you to adjust back into society. All I can say is that I am so happy for you that you were given a second chance at life in the "free" world. I'm sure you appreciate every moment that many people take for granted. Imagine all the great things that are coming to you in the future.
Wow! So many things we would never think about! So many things we take for granted become foreign to anyone coming back from prison! So much has changed! Were Skinny jeans for guys even a thing before?! Thanks for your perspective! It’s fascinating! Definitely do more videos on the weeks months and a year out maybe! I think it might help people help someone else who’s going to be in a similar position.. how they can help people they know who get out.
Wow it's informative to hear the play by play discharge events & how you felt. Thanks for sharing. I would love more stories. ❤
Love your stories. Keep doing well. 😊
Hey jumpsuit, thanks for sharing your first day of freedom with us. I stumbled across your channel a while ago while searching for Murdaugh videos.
Great to understand what it is like after you are back to the world. I would like to know how it was to socialize with friends, look for employment, learn how to enjoy a chill day without being directed your every move.
Would love to hear more stories. You’re very articulate, self reflective and interesting. Found you cos I watched the Murdaugh trials and your videos were in my recommended videos. Kia Kaha (stand strong) from New Zealand :) 💕🌷🌸🇳🇿
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Brother… I soooo understand this. I did 21 years in Vadoc and the first place my wife and I went to eat was Crackerbarrell. Which is now our staple to go out to. Much respect to you sir.
Enjoyed, a great video.
