Yeah, I've only come across Josh and Ollie recently, but I immediately found the combination of a more 'straight man' Josh with the funny Ollie to be brilliant. And, like you say, Ollie's sort of goofiness and humor is very disarming and immediately sets a friendly atmosphere and even though Ollie plays the goof, underneath, I think he's a pretty smart, clever person. Not to say Josh isn't, but Josh is much more straightforward with his approach? Regardless, they do make for a great combo for sure. And, like you said also, he does his research.
Fun fact. Trejo would only agree to a movie if his character is killed/jailed forever because he didn’t want to portray that being the bad guy is cool/rewarded, etc. Respect 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I knew a lot about him but never heard that... But it absolutely makes sense now that I think about how he dies a lot in movies and TV shows even if he does a small cameo
And the only way that you can work at one of his restaurants is to have a criminal record. He goes and looks for people like two-time offenders, the people that are at risk of going down the road that he went down. He's not only turning his life around he's making sure that the generation that comes after him has a mentor in someone to look up to as opposed to falling through the cracks.
This man is eighty years old, and survived cancer and a stroke, after a rough start to life. Incredible. He hasn't aged in thirty years, except to look happier. Had the pleasure of meeting him in LA years ago, he doesn't act like he's famous at all. Just a kind man. There's a reason he's a treasure to Angelinos.
@@gula_rataNot true. “He once joked to LA Mag, ‘I think it's against the law for a Mexican to be vegetarian.’” He has recently added some vegan options to his restaurants, though. That’s all. Please don’t spread misinformation.
@@CJMGalaxyikr 😂.. I was there yesterday and there’s 2 vegan tacos there. Mushroom and jackfruit. I’m vegetarian and the mushroom asada tacos are straight fire!
While Josh is more highlighted in Korean Englishman, Ollie truly shines in JOLLY. So much work into researching the guests and taking into consideration good questions and having flow throughout the entire interview makes the synergy so well! I teared up during Danny's story about the kermit frog and his mom and the story about working with his son directing his film. So blessed we get both channels!
Agree! It’s such a sign of respect, too, when he asks questions he could only know through research. Especially with celebs, who are used to junkets and the same 10 questions about their life/work, it must be so refreshing to hear someone asking genuine, thought-out questions.
Thank goodness our cruel for-profit jails were not around when Danny was incarcerated. He would probably still be a legally-held SLAVE all these years later. For-profit prisons are EVIL.
Absolutely, I was raised by this, thanks to my mother. "When you give, you shall receive." I feel that because of this way of thinking, I have never been without anything. I'm not rich, but I always have enough to afford what I want and need. All the more reason to share when I can. Big shout out to my mom, in heaven, for helping me understand this at a very young age. 🌹❤
My husband was his security for a Comicon here in Houston. He said Danny was so hard to keep up with, he feared nothing, had no hesitations about just walking into the crowds and embracing others. He was very personable and greeted everyone equally like an old friend. Not like most of the stars he worked with who avoided their fans. He was one of Hawk's favorite clients.
@@akirebara most people are killed by people they now including Selena. But she was killed because the lady was stealing money And Selena found out. From what I understand.
I'm sure this sounds silly to some, but hearing Danny Trejo openly talking about getting emotional and crying in a movie scene gives me so much hope. Here's the toughest of the tough guys letting us know it's alright to cry. Love this guy. You deserve everything you have achieved and accomplished throughout your life, and wish you nothing but the best
I can't remember where I heard this but he was raised with his cousins (all girls) and loved fantasy and make believe, and his dad took him away because he didn't want a "sissy" as a son. There was a story of the whole family sharing a holiday meal while Danny was locked in the car outside. Utterly horrific, for him to be so sunny and happy after that kind of childhood (and the gritty aftermath) is a real achievement.
"Everything good that's happened to me has happened as the direct result of helping someone else, and that's the way I live my life." What an amazing outlook on life. I wonder how much better the world would be if we prioritized helping others.
What a coincidence, I'm reading Maxwell Maltz Psycho-cibernetics and that's what he says, that it is scientifically proven that people feel better and their lives change when they give or help others than when they receive.
I am enjoying Ollie taking the lead and doing these interviews more and more, (he gets so much out of people it is insane) almost as much as Josh enjoys just showing up and eating food lol
@@Michael-kf7gm Josh has had problems with gabie and her pregnancy recently so he might not be in the best headspace and both of them are equally important for this channel
@@Michael-kf7gm I disagree with the claim that he's been disingenuous and disengaged. I think Josh often has a lot more comfortability in food and culture. Ollie definitely has a greater talent for relationships (as in if Josh is average to above average in conversation skills, Ollie is gifted). This video, like many of their interviews, was "led" by Ollie because of that. As for distracted, if you pay attention to the Korean Englishman channel, you'd know that he's got a child on the way, he's been doing many trips to Korea for his first (and more successful, since you want to yap bout their brand) channel, and a member of the team lost their house to a fire. I'm unaware of the person's role but depending on their level in the production process, slowing operations while they stabilize their situation seems entirely reasonable. And most importantly, Josh and Ollie are partners on both this channel and KE, how on Earth do you think Ollie's going to kick Josh from an equal relationship? I haven't even seen anything damaging to their brand, what damage do you see (other than you being butthurt over nonexistent problems)?
@@Michael-kf7gm I sincerely hope that you grow as a person and learn that pregnancy aren't entirely the mother's matter. If she has complications that affects Josh because he loves her. If the baby has complications that affects Josh because he loves his child. To imply that he should abandon his family in her times of need because you want more frequent uploads is absolutely selfish and shameful.
@@Michael-kf7gm The irony of your level of cynicism while you fight "for" a channel named Jolly is actually incredible. The narrow-minded nature of your mindset is more shocking than a biblical plague.
Danny Trejo is the real deal. He gives back to the community as much as he can and also still goes to AA local meetings in LA. I get so happy remembering that this man was given a second, third, 4th, 5th chance in life.
yeah, it goes to show you that if you keep moving forward, good things can happen. Too many people, when they've gone through things, sit back and make excuses. NO reason to. Fight, work hard, move on. You never know what it can lead to
I met Danny years ago and his back story is amazing. He was in prison serving time and his cellmate got out of prison before him and told him to look him up when he was released. Danny did just that and found his old cellmate working behind the scenes on a movie set. The movie director saw Danny and put him in the movie just based on his look and that is how he got his start in movies.
My family and I just met Danny Trejo in January, at a convention, and he was so sweet. We got a photo op with him, and his autograph. We found out that he did selfies as well, and my 6 yr old daughter, wanted a selfie with him, which made him smile. I just showed her a little bit of this and she shouted happily, "MR. DANNY ! I LOVE MR. DANNY !"
why am I more surprised by you guys interviewing Danny Trejo than when you interviewed David Beckham, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chris Hemsworth, etc??!?! An absolute legend!!!
I’ve worked as a PA in a few movies Danny was in, he’s a gentleman. He’s a funny, clever, old timer with a good heart. He enjoys making people smile and laugh. Loves and appreciates his fans. The brother looks great at 80. Great interview Gents.
Danny Trejo has one of the toughest, meanest faces in Hollywood. But he has a heart of pure gold. There's a podcast he did with Jason Mewes as a guest for Jay and Silent Bob Get Old and I realized then what a awesome dude he is.
Mr Trejo reminds me of my great grandpa. I'm white as snow but my great grandpa was a Mexican American WW2 Airforce Vet who was shot down over the pacific and survived for weeks on a life raft
That's amazing. Honestly I was thinking the same thing. I loved hanging out with and hearing the stories of my great grandfather. He was in WW2, Vietnam, and the Korean wars. He would tell me about how his dad (my great great grandfather) rode with Pancho Villa during the Mexican revolution. We're blessed to have known our great grandfathers who were hardcore warriors of their times, and watching him as I grew up, just be so giving to everyone around him.
@BenjaminTrillington the sad part is I was always scared of him as a little kid (looking back, I had no reason to be he was very kind to kids) except one time I worked up the courage to give him a hug. I only later in life learned of his military career, long after he died.
ollie is one of my favorite interviewers ever he is so considerate and kind and always does his research to ask whoever he’s interviewing the most interesting questions and tries to genuinely get to know them it’s incredible
Im not someone that recognizes good interviewers. Usually when i hear that about reporters or other YT interviewers, i dont notice anything different from other interviewers. But ive def noticed it with ollie. Idk what it is about his questions, maybe its him not asking the same questions as all other interviewers, or maybe its the fact that he gets little tidbits of information that not many people even know about and then ask those questions, but i def notice it.
8:18 “Everything good that’s ever happened to me, happened as a direct result of helping someone else.” I cried. The basic things I teach my kids, my students and my Girl Scouts, this is of upmost importance. Help others, and good things will come along ❤ Ollie, you shine in this interview 🤩 fantastic! Just added his book to my list.
A friend saw Danny years ago at a diner (Denny's?) in San Fernando with his family and his mom before she passed and said he was just a genuinely nice guy. He went around saying hello to people and took pictures with them. You could tell he is thankful for his life and he shares that gratitude with others by being the best human he can be.
People tend to forget, or not know, how freaking funny Danny is.... Living legend, can't wait to try his food....Just to name a few he's been in : Wedlock, Desperado, Heat, From dusk till dawn, Con Air, The replacement killers....
That was very enlightening. The meanest, roughest, nastiest guy in Hollywood is actually a pretty nice guy that is saving lives left and right in drug and alcohol counseling. Who knew? His movies may not be my cup of tea, but a definitive success story if I've ever seen one. Very inspiring.
The more I learn about Danny Trejo more. I really like the guy. He pulled himself up from all the things that people get stuck in... And made something better of himself and that's got to count for something in life! I'm glad you guys let him speak and talk.. He had some really good things to say to everyone
Greetings from L.A., the home of Trejo's Tacos. Danny also owns Trejo's Coffee & Donuts on Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood. As mentioned in the interview, his life has been a story of successes and overcoming challenges.
Brit here living in San Francisco. I am so envious that Notting Hill has its own Danny Trejo. He is iconic, and has come so far from his days in San Quentin, a hip, skip and a jump across the Golden Gate Bridge, near where I live. In San Francisco, we go to the Mission District to get our wonderful, authentic, Mexican, El Salvadoran, Nicaraguan, Peruvian and Chilean food. But, we’d kill to have Danny open a restaurant or take out here in SF. Please use your Jolly influence to make it happen. This was a wonderful episode to watch. Thank you.
There was a Trejo's Tacos in Redwood City for a hot minute, but it seems to have closed down for some reason. Honestly I was just assuming that it had stiff competition there since Redwood City has so many great Mexican spots and has for many years.
Ollie is a delight to have as an interviewer. I mean he is a delight to have in general but the thoughtfulness he put in these are amazing. He has such a kind and joyful way with people. Simply a wonderful human.
I hope Ollie goes on to pursue projects, other careers on his own. The more and more that I watched the Jolly and Korean Englishman videos everything is quite apparent without saying words. Ollie is quick witted, brilliant, talented in so many ways and incredibly intelligent not to mention very approachable. He wrote two books, one using the proceeds for the worlds largest carrot in Carrotland and the other for charity. I love, love, love how he's always done charitable work to help others and had past employment assisting homeless.
You act like Ollie isn’t doing well already both the channels belong to the duo he’s no less involved in both channels - they’ve been in this game 10 years
Wow the level of dedication and research Ollie puts in for every person and content in their videos is one of the main reasons why this channel is so successful. He reads Danny Trejo's memoir in preparation for the video and has all these questions for the guests that really show them that he's interested in them and what they're doing.
I don't really know much about him, I've certainly seen him in a few movies, but he's never stuck in my head. This interview really changed that. What a lovely man. Ollie, killed it on this interview, man. Great ep guys.
11:10 Never knew this about Ollie. I have so much respect for that, man. Everyone on earth deserves respect and compassion as we are made in the imagine of God. Great interview!
I recommend you watch their interview in the try guys podcast. He talked about it in more details there before fully immersing himself with youtube work.
Danny, sitting there, not eating, making sure the boys eat, and - like it ! Machete kills - every time ! We need a Mexican joint like that in Parramatta, Sydney. Come on, Danny ! Make my wish come true ! Thank you, boys ! Great interview, an icon as a guest, and fine Mexican food ! Thank you !
Danny Trejo is an absolute legend and one of my favourite actors. I’m so happy he has opened a taco joint in the UK, we need proper Mexican food in our lives. I wish him the best of success and hope one day to try em. Thanks lads! Don’t forget to wash down with a good glug of Don Julio Anejo!
I had the GREAT HONOR of meeting Mr. Trejo once and getting to sit in on a conversation he was having in New Mexico. Absolutley a wonderful man! Loved him! Good luck, Danny!
Clicked to watch a food review, and stayed to watch a really good interview. Credit to Ollie (and probably Josh too) for doing excellent research going in. Trejo must’ve loved this
I can't believe he's 80! He looks amazing! What a great interview, and his food looks absolutely delicious! You guys got a real treat in both trying his food but getting to sit down with a true legend. 👍💛
What a wonderfull man. My man is a recovering alcoholic and druguser, he's been.sober for 24 years now, and he also lives ny the 12 steps, being a buddy of several people, also a speaker every now and then. Cool to hear him talk about it, very recognizable ❤
Man, Danny Trejo is a Real Special Treasure! Zero celebrity pretentiousness. I really love his down to earth personality, his positive and humble attitude, and the fact that he gives back, what he has received in his lifetime. That is rare gratitude. There's no mistake as to why he's so adored by myself and fans from all over the world. 💕 👌 ♥ 🤗
I absolutely LOVE Danny Trejo. He is so warm and strong and caring. He has turned his life around many years ago and he is just such an inspiration. I am so glad that he has had the success he has had and I pray he has many more years of equal or better success to come
Omggg, I love Danny Trejo so much!!! 😍😍😍 Talk was an amazing, if unexpected crossover collab!!! You guys are so lucky to have been able to mee Mr. Trejo! 🥹
I came to the comment section to write you praises on these interviews you've been doing, and I see, everyone agrees. It's so nice seeing how comfortable people become when they realise you have actually done your research, you are genuinely interested and are promoting their work and sharing their story. As a viewer I appreciate this immensely. Keep doing amazing work.
Danny is the Los Angeles Mission's treasure. I have had the pleasure of working alongside him at a Christmas event for the homeless. He is the most humble and loving person. JOLLY doesn't even begin to know.
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. I had a smile on my face the entire time. I've loved Danny Trejo since the beginning of his film career and I had the pleasure of meeting him in fact at JFK airport before he "hit it big" in the movies. It was right before From Dusk till Dawn came out if I remember the timing right. He was so nice and just like in the video here - loved telling stories. He told me a story of when he was in prison and just, I could listen to him for hours. I'm so happy he's still going strong (as Ollie said a literal serial survivor!) and doing so well for the Taco restaurants. Also, props to Ollie for being awesome in this video. You can tell Danny appreciated Ollie doing his research and they felt like old buds talking about crap lol
Wow. This episode is so overwhelming, from Ollie killing it with the questions, Josh absolutely enjoying the food, 3 of them talking like they're old friends that haven't seen each others for a long time, and how Danny Trejo talking about helping people, being nice to others, giving back to community, and having good things in return at the right time... Gosh, my heart os so full. This episode is very heartwarming.
I always thought Ollie wa s a bit of a goof (in the best way!), but I really appreciated his questioning/interviewing here. And Danny Trejo continues to be the kindest, most generous tough guy EVER. He is a gem. Jolly, this might be my favorite video of yours. Good owrk.
How on EARTH do you guys have such amazing chemistry with each and every guest? I mean you guys are genuinely amazing. And Danny Trejo is such a sweet man!! I love his laugh 😂😂
got to see danny in passing a few months ago at fanexpo cleveland - never seen a more personable, kind gentleman in my life!! he was so enthusiastic about everyone that came up to his table to meet him, he even recorded a gender reveal for a couple!! absolutely legend of a man
He will forever be one of my absolute favorite actors! He’s genuine, humble, and he’s not really acting, he’s taking the part given to him & making it his. I love that!! Much respect & love from WV @DannyTrejo ❤️✌️
I remember the first time I watched Danny on Con Air, as Johnny 23. I thought he has to be such a scarry person. And after that, reading all the good works he does, and how well he is liked by everyone. A friend of mine got to briefly meet him when they where shooting a scene by her job. She said he was the nicest person. What a testimony to what an outstanding actor he is. I wish him all the best, for a long time to come.
I LOVE Danny Trejo. His tacos, his generosity, his business acumen, his acting, and his love of his culture! So jealous you got to meet such a LEGEND!!
That is a grateful human being. And just one of the most interesting, lovable stars around. What a treat to be able to watch this collab. Much love to Danny and the boys!
This was great! As a fellow Los Angelino, Danny Trejo makes us proud. And, man, does that food look amazing. Vermont needs one of his restaurants, that's for sure.
This one is a blessing. Danny Trejos is a true inspiration for so many reasons. Listening to him today made a true difference to me. What a great collaboration for you guys. He is something, that is for sure. Thank you so much for sharing this piece!
I mean i liked him a lot before this but god I love this man now, naturally funny, kind, and truly inspiring. This is a man who made his mistakes and learned from them and went back and fixed everything. A direct result of helping others! how beautiful was that line? Hollywood needs more gentlemen like him.
Great interview. It is refreshing to see someone ask questions who has actually read the book. This man is a treasure and I've never heard anything bad about him. If more folks would give back and help their communities, the world would be a lovely place.
Thank you for touching on the topic of addiction and recovery. I lost my daughter when she was 19 and I just appreciate it so much when a people show that their is hope and recovery is possible. thank you thank you
i think this is one of the most wholesome episodes that ive ever seen, it was beautiful and funny, knowing danny trejos back story.... itss just amazing
Danny Trejo is one of the most talented, professional, RESPECTED Mexican actor, Salma Hayek has described him as a genuine representative of the Mexican-American dream!! He has inspired me and so many hundreds of thousands of people to rebound every time life presents a painful challenge! He is incredibly humble about who he is and his achievements!! He is a Mexican Titan!!
❤❤❤❤ Danny!! You two are so lucky to share a meal and talk with him🎉. I'd love to sit with him and just listen to him reflect on his life. One of my favs.... true icon 🌟🥰
Man, Ollie is killing it as an interviewer. Sounds like someone who's done their research and is asking thoughtful questions.
He is always do research before interviews. Some people did surprise he knew lot of things 😂
Well, who else but Ollie? 😅
this and a dad joke
I somehow have the feeling that Ollie will slowly become like Sean Evans and be quite famous for being a good interviewer

I didn't know that was his reason 😮
Cause he was in the crime world when he was young and didn't want anyone experience such thing@@HaruAcademy
I knew a lot about him but never heard that... But it absolutely makes sense now that I think about how he dies a lot in movies and TV shows even if he does a small cameo

I cant believe Danny Trejo is 80 years old. He's got the energy and zest for life as someone much younger than him. Great interview.
He's 80!!!!
What?!!??
Wow. That man has looked the same for the last 40 years. That’s amazing.
Wtf,80!!!??? Incredible.

"I never dreamed I was getting out of prison!"
Teared up here, not gonna lie.
His episode of Finding Your Roots on PBS was intense, the guy has lived a tough life for sure
Ray Liota, "You alright tough guy?" "Shut up!," Trejo. I felt that. I could only imagine.
Thank goodness our cruel for-profit jails were not around when Danny was incarcerated.
He would probably still be a legally-held SLAVE all these years later.
For-profit prisons are EVIL.
Why am I crying when Danny starts talking about how everything good happen when he does good for others. Wow. Love this man.

Well expect the unexpected from the duo.
It was so wholesome. Loved it.
But the one we always needed
Yup, saw the thumbnail, fr
I’ve worked as a PA in a few movies Danny was in, he’s a gentleman. He’s a funny, clever, old timer with a good heart. He enjoys making people smile and laugh. Loves and appreciates his fans. The brother looks great at 80. Great interview Gents.
There’s not a celebrity in the world that’s more genuine than Danny. Change my mind. Dude is SO awesome!
Actors and celebrities for the people and not the paycheck are my favorite
Danny Trejo has one of the toughest, meanest faces in Hollywood. But he has a heart of pure gold. There's a podcast he did with Jason Mewes as a guest for Jay and Silent Bob Get Old and I realized then what a awesome dude he is.
He's also Enrique on King of the Hill lol
Mr Trejo reminds me of my great grandpa. I'm white as snow but my great grandpa was a Mexican American WW2 Airforce Vet who was shot down over the pacific and survived for weeks on a life raft
Hero! 🇺🇸
Your grandpa is as badass as Danny.
That's amazing. Honestly I was thinking the same thing. I loved hanging out with and hearing the stories of my great grandfather. He was in WW2, Vietnam, and the Korean wars. He would tell me about how his dad (my great great grandfather) rode with Pancho Villa during the Mexican revolution. We're blessed to have known our great grandfathers who were hardcore warriors of their times, and watching him as I grew up, just be so giving to everyone around him.
That's siiick! Glad he ended up making it out alive!
@BenjaminTrillington the sad part is I was always scared of him as a little kid (looking back, I had no reason to be he was very kind to kids) except one time I worked up the courage to give him a hug. I only later in life learned of his military career, long after he died.
ollie is one of my favorite interviewers ever he is so considerate and kind and always does his research to ask whoever he’s interviewing the most interesting questions and tries to genuinely get to know them it’s incredible
Im not someone that recognizes good interviewers. Usually when i hear that about reporters or other YT interviewers, i dont notice anything different from other interviewers. But ive def noticed it with ollie. Idk what it is about his questions, maybe its him not asking the same questions as all other interviewers, or maybe its the fact that he gets little tidbits of information that not many people even know about and then ask those questions, but i def notice it.
@@erickim1739 Kermit 😍
8:18 “Everything good that’s ever happened to me, happened as a direct result of helping someone else.” I cried. The basic things I teach my kids, my students and my Girl Scouts, this is of upmost importance. Help others, and good things will come along ❤ Ollie, you shine in this interview 🤩 fantastic! Just added his book to my list.
A friend saw Danny years ago at a diner (Denny's?) in San Fernando with his family and his mom before she passed and said he was just a genuinely nice guy. He went around saying hello to people and took pictures with them. You could tell he is thankful for his life and he shares that gratitude with others by being the best human he can be.
I see the thumbnail. I see Danny Trejo. I click and watch the video.
Based
Respect
Same!
I see your comment. I click reply. I reply to your comment
Congratulations. 🙄
People tend to forget, or not know, how freaking funny Danny is.... Living legend, can't wait to try his food....Just to name a few he's been in : Wedlock, Desperado, Heat, From dusk till dawn, Con Air, The replacement killers....
I forgot he was in From Dusk Till Dawn!
I loved how you can tell Ollie was being a fan boy. I wish i could meet Danny Trejo that would be a dream
Go get some tacos, you might score.
Mr Trejo came and spoke at my son’s High School. He is so very much community involved.
That was very enlightening. The meanest, roughest, nastiest guy in Hollywood is actually a pretty nice guy that is saving lives left and right in drug and alcohol counseling. Who knew? His movies may not be my cup of tea, but a definitive success story if I've ever seen one. Very inspiring.
Love how Ollie always does his research on the guests
Yup
I wish he did research on how to eat a taco....
@@DatBoiAntix Oh boy you can go kiss my a--. Who cares. You just bite it and eat it.
@@DatBoiAntix I know, he eating that taco like a burguer irked me a little bit ngl
The more I learn about Danny Trejo more. I really like the guy. He pulled himself up from all the things that people get stuck in... And made something better of himself and that's got to count for something in life! I'm glad you guys let him speak and talk.. He had some really good things to say to everyone
Greetings from L.A., the home of Trejo's Tacos. Danny also owns Trejo's Coffee & Donuts on Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood. As mentioned in the interview, his life has been a story of successes and overcoming challenges.
I wish he had a place near me, that food looked so damn good!
Brit here living in San Francisco. I am so envious that Notting Hill has its own Danny Trejo. He is iconic, and has come so far from his days in San Quentin, a hip, skip and a jump across the Golden Gate Bridge, near where I live. In San Francisco, we go to the Mission District to get our wonderful, authentic, Mexican, El Salvadoran, Nicaraguan, Peruvian and Chilean food. But, we’d kill to have Danny open a restaurant or take out here in SF. Please use your Jolly influence to make it happen. This was a wonderful episode to watch. Thank you.
There was a Trejo's Tacos in Redwood City for a hot minute, but it seems to have closed down for some reason. Honestly I was just assuming that it had stiff competition there since Redwood City has so many great Mexican spots and has for many years.
Ollie is a delight to have as an interviewer. I mean he is a delight to have in general but the thoughtfulness he put in these are amazing. He has such a kind and joyful way with people. Simply a wonderful human.
I hope Ollie goes on to pursue projects, other careers on his own. The more and more that I watched the Jolly and Korean Englishman videos everything is quite apparent without saying words. Ollie is quick witted, brilliant, talented in so many ways and incredibly intelligent not to mention very approachable. He wrote two books, one using the proceeds for the worlds largest carrot in Carrotland and the other for charity. I love, love, love how he's always done charitable work to help others and had past employment assisting homeless.
You act like Ollie isn’t doing well already both the channels belong to the duo he’s no less involved in both channels - they’ve been in this game 10 years
Loving the contrast in content between jolly and Korean Englishman rn
Wow the level of dedication and research Ollie puts in for every person and content in their videos is one of the main reasons why this channel is so successful. He reads Danny Trejo's memoir in preparation for the video and has all these questions for the guests that really show them that he's interested in them and what they're doing.
I don't really know much about him, I've certainly seen him in a few movies, but he's never stuck in my head. This interview really changed that. What a lovely man. Ollie, killed it on this interview, man. Great ep guys.
Mannn him talking about blood in blood out really made my little chicana heart happy🥹 Love that movie! VATOS LOCOS FOREVER ESE
Watching Ollie eat a taco from the top was the most expected British interpretation of eating tacos I could think of hahaha
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT!!!! OMG it broke my break. Like the "put it in the square hole" girl it's just wrong.
Yup all I could think of is who put a cob of corn in his hands I thought he was eating Tacos. Gotta eat it like a hotdog Ollie
Yes!! I thought the same!! Lol!!
Ollie is really coming into his own. Very intelligent, kind and handsome young man. This was a moving interview in the best way. Thanks.
11:10 Never knew this about Ollie. I have so much respect for that, man. Everyone on earth deserves respect and compassion as we are made in the imagine of God. Great interview!
Yes!
I recommend you watch their interview in the try guys podcast. He talked about it in more details there before fully immersing himself with youtube work.
@@Catherine-Zane I'll check that out, thank you. =)
Danny, sitting there, not eating, making sure the boys eat, and - like it ! Machete kills - every time ! We need a Mexican joint like that in Parramatta, Sydney. Come on, Danny ! Make my wish come true ! Thank you, boys ! Great interview, an icon as a guest, and fine Mexican food ! Thank you !
"Has he ever not been a villian?" Spy Kids! He was awesome and wholesome in Spy Kids! 0:23
Danny Trejo is an absolute legend and one of my favourite actors. I’m so happy he has opened a taco joint in the UK, we need proper Mexican food in our lives. I wish him the best of success and hope one day to try em. Thanks lads! Don’t forget to wash down with a good glug of Don Julio Anejo!
Amen to that! If there's one thing the UK lacks, it's good Mexican food!
I had the GREAT HONOR of meeting Mr. Trejo once and getting to sit in on a conversation he was having in New Mexico. Absolutley a wonderful man! Loved him! Good luck, Danny!
Thank you for sharing this. I have been a fan of Danny' for decades and am so glad he represents us Mexicans as well.
The American dream is Trejo, you can do anything in America. There’s always an opportunity to succeed
Love how much Ollie researched and looked into things for this interview.
Good one.
Loved this segment.
Danny Trejo is Awesome!
Clicked to watch a food review, and stayed to watch a really good interview. Credit to Ollie (and probably Josh too) for doing excellent research going in. Trejo must’ve loved this
I can't believe he's 80! He looks amazing! What a great interview, and his food looks absolutely delicious! You guys got a real treat in both trying his food but getting to sit down with a true legend. 👍💛
10:52 Danny gives a lot back to the community ❤
He does, we love him here so much
What a wonderfull man. My man is a recovering alcoholic and druguser, he's been.sober for 24 years now, and he also lives ny the 12 steps, being a buddy of several people, also a speaker every now and then. Cool to hear him talk about it, very recognizable ❤
Man, Danny Trejo is a Real Special Treasure! Zero celebrity pretentiousness. I really love his down to earth personality, his positive and humble attitude, and the fact that he gives back, what he has received in his lifetime. That is rare gratitude. There's no mistake as to why he's so adored by myself and fans from all over the world. 💕 👌 ♥ 🤗
One of the truly nicest men in hollywood !!!
Ollie did a stellar job as interviewer, really just elevated this fun video. Danny is such a delightful and good humored person who just loves life.
Happy 80th Birthday (yesterday) to Danny Trejo!
There are few people in this world with a more beautiful heart than Danny Trejo. Amazing interview guys. Love from Buenos Aires, Argentina ❤
I absolutely LOVE Danny Trejo. He is so warm and strong and caring. He has turned his life around many years ago and he is just such an inspiration. I am so glad that he has had the success he has had and I pray he has many more years of equal or better success to come
Insane collab
Danny is such a great guy in the way he gives back to his community. He understands the concept of gratitude.
Danny seems like the sweetest, most genuine man. So glad you were able to have this experience with him!!
ollie has such a laugh and I think thats what makes him such a great interviewer because he knows whats important to people
Love love love Danny Trejo ! That is a real American through and through
Omggg, I love Danny Trejo so much!!! 😍😍😍 Talk was an amazing, if unexpected crossover collab!!! You guys are so lucky to have been able to mee Mr. Trejo! 🥹
Mr Trejo is truly a sweet human being.
God bless him.
absolutely love Danny Trejo! one of a kind, broke the mold and one of the most humble guys on earth.
I came to the comment section to write you praises on these interviews you've been doing, and I see, everyone agrees. It's so nice seeing how comfortable people become when they realise you have actually done your research, you are genuinely interested and are promoting their work and sharing their story. As a viewer I appreciate this immensely. Keep doing amazing work.
Danny is the Los Angeles Mission's treasure. I have had the pleasure of working alongside him at a Christmas event for the homeless. He is the most humble and loving person. JOLLY doesn't even begin to know.
Wow! That is amazing Danny Trejo sat down with you! What a guy!
Good job boys and Ollie has become such an excellent interviewer!
How you doin
@@A-rl4or there is no way you’re tryna holla at a girl on UA-cam comments. Seek help dude.
@@Matt-Varvorski-Go-Birds how you doin big boy
@@Matt-Varvorski-Go-Birds this girl is completely ignoring him 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. I had a smile on my face the entire time. I've loved Danny Trejo since the beginning of his film career and I had the pleasure of meeting him in fact at JFK airport before he "hit it big" in the movies. It was right before From Dusk till Dawn came out if I remember the timing right. He was so nice and just like in the video here - loved telling stories. He told me a story of when he was in prison and just, I could listen to him for hours. I'm so happy he's still going strong (as Ollie said a literal serial survivor!) and doing so well for the Taco restaurants. Also, props to Ollie for being awesome in this video. You can tell Danny appreciated Ollie doing his research and they felt like old buds talking about crap lol
Wow. This episode is so overwhelming, from Ollie killing it with the questions, Josh absolutely enjoying the food, 3 of them talking like they're old friends that haven't seen each others for a long time, and how Danny Trejo talking about helping people, being nice to others, giving back to community, and having good things in return at the right time... Gosh, my heart os so full. This episode is very heartwarming.
I always thought Ollie wa s a bit of a goof (in the best way!), but I really appreciated his questioning/interviewing here.
And Danny Trejo continues to be the kindest, most generous tough guy EVER. He is a gem.
Jolly, this might be my favorite video of yours. Good owrk.
How on EARTH do you guys have such amazing chemistry with each and every guest? I mean you guys are genuinely amazing. And Danny Trejo is such a sweet man!! I love his laugh 😂😂
got to see danny in passing a few months ago at fanexpo cleveland - never seen a more personable, kind gentleman in my life!! he was so enthusiastic about everyone that came up to his table to meet him, he even recorded a gender reveal for a couple!! absolutely legend of a man
Well dang, that was wholesome as anything! Great interviewing by Ollie too!
He will forever be one of my absolute favorite actors! He’s genuine, humble, and he’s not really acting, he’s taking the part given to him & making it his. I love that!! Much respect & love from WV @DannyTrejo ❤️✌️
Ollie's research on Danny is incredible! Favorite interview they've done so far. Love how thoughtful and respectful the questions are -
I have been WAITING for this to open in London!! Literally tracking progress for months lol. Can't wait to pay a visit!
make sure you try the street corn. lots of people in Cali eat it and i always thought it was a weird thing but once I tried it, I can’t get enough. 😋
@@LaMeredeMaks I'll make sure to, thanks!
Danny Trejo seems like a really amazing person ! I am very impressed by him. Thanks a lot Ollie and Josh for this great video.
I remember the first time I watched Danny on Con Air, as Johnny 23. I thought he has to be such a scarry person. And after that, reading all the good works he does, and how well he is liked by everyone. A friend of mine got to briefly meet him when they where shooting a scene by her job. She said he was the nicest person.
What a testimony to what an outstanding actor he is. I wish him all the best, for a long time to come.
I LOVE Danny Trejo. His tacos, his generosity, his business acumen, his acting, and his love of his culture! So jealous you got to meet such a LEGEND!!
That is a grateful human being. And just one of the most interesting, lovable stars around. What a treat to be able to watch this collab. Much love to Danny and the boys!
This was great! As a fellow Los Angelino, Danny Trejo makes us proud. And, man, does that food look amazing. Vermont needs one of his restaurants, that's for sure.
My mom grew up in the Vermont area in the nineteen teens, a looooooong time ago.
This one is a blessing. Danny Trejos is a true inspiration for so many reasons. Listening to him today made a true difference to me. What a great collaboration for you guys. He is something, that is for sure. Thank you so much for sharing this piece!
I mean i liked him a lot before this but god I love this man now, naturally funny, kind, and truly inspiring. This is a man who made his mistakes and learned from them and went back and fixed everything. A direct result of helping others! how beautiful was that line? Hollywood needs more gentlemen like him.
Great interview. It is refreshing to see someone ask questions who has actually read the book. This man is a treasure and I've never heard anything bad about him. If more folks would give back and help their communities, the world would be a lovely place.
What an amazing guy! He always has time for people and just loves helping and now we know why. What a great video guys!
my new favorite video on this channel, Danny is a true legend!
Just watching Danny Trejo's deminer and humbleness and just being so down to earth and light hearted, made me smile for the whole video.
Thank you for touching on the topic of addiction and recovery. I lost my daughter when she was 19 and I just appreciate it so much when a people show that their is hope and recovery is possible. thank you thank you
i think this is one of the most wholesome episodes that ive ever seen, it was beautiful and funny, knowing danny trejos back story.... itss just amazing
Are you kidding me??? Did Josh just call refried beans bean sauce?? 🤣🤣🤣
A British Gringo is still a Gringo.
This is why I came to the comments! 😎😎🤘🤘
I thought this and then I realized who it was lmaooo
Yeah lmao
Or Olly saying Tack-Os.
Danny's an absolute legend here in the City of Angels, so glad he's spreading his positive humanitarian vibes to the UK too! 😎
I love this! Wish it was a longer episode, I can tell Ollie was just bursting with more questions!
Danny Trejo is one of the most talented, professional, RESPECTED Mexican actor, Salma Hayek has described him as a genuine representative of the Mexican-American dream!! He has inspired me and so many hundreds of thousands of people to rebound every time life presents a painful challenge! He is incredibly humble about who he is and his achievements!! He is a Mexican Titan!!
❤❤❤❤ Danny!! You two are so lucky to share a meal and talk with him🎉. I'd love to sit with him and just listen to him reflect on his life. One of my favs.... true icon 🌟🥰
Excellent job, guys. Thank you for treating Mr. Trejo with the respect he deserves.
Never thought i see Danny Trejo featured on Jolly!!!🤩🤩🤩
