Jimmy’s interview captivates with his storytelling prowess, immersing readers in the narrative. His books, including the exceptional “Black Bird,” have left a lasting impact, deserving the awards and accolades they’ve received.
His life never needed turning around, this guy is a winner that's not something you can teach. I only hope I can have at least one person like this in my network
He was selling weed at 12 years old and working with the cartel.. His life 100% needed turning around…. He was just reformed and life ended up rewarding. He just needed to put it to use from the jump. Tough hurdles at young age will do that though. Glad he is doing well.
This was a great interview. I didn't know anything about this guy. I read In With the Devil only off of a recommendation. The story was good but I wanted to know more about Jimmy's life. When his other book Chicago Phoenix came out and filled in all the blanks, I was so impressed with this guy and what he had to go through to make it to the top! I am truly a fan now. I can't wait to see what comes out next!
Great Series I'm a very ID addict and I saw this story on ID. Mark Wahlberg did a show called Very Scary People and Larry Hall was on there. It was Called The Twin and I was like I saw this story before. Great Job Jimmy
Can’t get enough of this Black Bird series !! Always good to know there are people out there like you , Jimmy! Thanks for keeping that killer behind bars! Keep up the fantastic work!
Excellent interview! Jimmy Keene's life story and all his books are compelling and informative. His Black Bird series was the best I subscribed to AppleTV just to watch it!
Great interview, book and series. I can't imagine coming face to face with a serial killer. How did he ever hold his composure. I would never have been able to do it. I'm looking forward to another book and series.
nixaeagle You just stay hiding down in your mommy & daddy's basement wetting your pants and sponging off public aid and let the real men handle life! You are just a lost nobody flunky on the road to nowhere! You would never have the balls to say that to his face you gutless jealous punk! Now get lost you dirt bag troll! @@nixaeagle141
I’m sure he had general knowledge. But Jimmy is very specific about a scene or moment, with little info. I think the host generally knew but not THAT specifically- and wanted him to go on to explain his point. He just agreed bc he had general knowledge. But yes you can tell. I wouldn’t say he DIDNT DO ANY watching or reading though.
What a cool interview, man! Interesting stories! I watched Black Bird! You get hooked from watching the first episode and you remain on the hook for the entire series!
This was a great interview listening to Jimmy tell his experiences. I have read the books and watched the series. I couldn't put them down. I can't imagine the decision of going from a minimal security prison the where he ended up. He did a great deed getting to know Larry Hall. I couldn't look him in the face knowing what he did to those girls. Because of Jimmy this serial killer is no longer on the streets.
Jimmy went to a low level prison to a high level prison. He was recruited to catch a serial killer because he has skills! He caught the killer! Thanks Jimmy!
He DID NOT!! Fools. LH in prison for the murder they convicted him in. Jimmy was suppose to try get info where other bodies. He saw a map, left a message and then blew his cover before evidence collected the map disappeared. Yes, it was great be tried. But people saying he caught a serial killer is a joke.
@@traveltmignorant comment! How would you do in a high level prison with other killers? How would know what to do? When you judge someone, it does not define the person that you are judging it defines you! Jimmy kept a serial rapist child murderer behind bars. Know the facts. It's been confirmed by CNN and Dateline.
traveltm you are an obsessed little jealous troll toad living down in someone's basement percolating off public aid! You forgot the man stopped a child rapist serial killer from ever being released and being able to kill anyone else's young daughters again! The serial killer for sure was about to be released on appeal on technical errors, guess you missed that part you idiot! Jimmy got over 6 months of new confessions on over 20 other young murder victims, some were recorded confessions too and that is what stopped the serial killer from ever winning his appeal and getting out! It's stated very clearly in his award winning "Black Bird" movie series and in his best-selling books! Guess you forget all that part didn't you idiot! That makes him a hero to all sane people! And your facts are all wrong the map did not mean a thing and he clearly in great detail explained why it did not matter, you idiot! The mission was 1st and foremost to make sure the serial killer did not get out, which Jimmy succeeded and accomplished, and 2nd to find the bodies, if possible, which FBI CSI teams have said was next to impossible to find them! Read his worldwide best-selling books and you will understand the real story and the facts you idiot!!! You would have been scared out of your mind in there and crying nonstop and been some inmates bitch in one day! You could never have accomplished what Jimmy did! Now crawl back in your stinky troll hole and get lost!
@@traveltmwhat Jimmy went through was basically hell on earth. How would know what it was like to be in prison with all these killers. Shame on you to judge! Try stepping in Jimmy's shoes- you could never ever do something as courageous as he has. Ignorant statements you just had made. You are the fool!
UNFATHOMABLE CONDITIONS - talking to and befriending a serial rapist child killer is an extremely difficult task and living in a high level prison is something that is typically not done. Who would agree to this mission? Who would know what to do or say to a killer? Jimmy had to do things that no else could do or say. No one has ever done this type of mission. If you know Jimmy's story and what he has done you know that Jimmy has kept this killer behind bars! Jimmy thanks for keeping this serial rapist child killer behind prison bars!
Awesome interview! I’ve read Jimmy’s best selling books and if you haven’t, I highly recommend! The Blackbird series was excellent! Can’t wait to see what’s next!!!!
@@bennettaintinit3095 what an ignorant jealous comment! 99.9% of inmates including you would not qualify or have the skill set do accomplish the mission and would have failed and the serial killer would have gotten out! That is why the FBI and US Attorney picked him for a reason! Remember Jimmy was able to get 6 months of recorded confessions on over 20 of the serial killer's victims and that is why the serial killer lost his appeal. Now he will stay behind bars forever, and never be able to roam free in society again to kill other people's young children! I'm a parent of young daughters and to all parents that makes Jimmy a hero!
Damn , i actually like the story told by him better then the TV series version. No wonder he is the guy for the mission , such charisma shown merely by an hour long interview.
Amazing story!!! It takes a lot of courage to do what Jimmy did keeping that serial killer in prison where he belongs. Black Bird is one of the best series I have ever watched hoping for season 2 !!!
Well, just finished the interview... at the end he mentions there will be a season 2 of black bird based on his new book the chicago phoenix. Could be bullshit marketing though.@@Boomer045
The question is did people watch it because of the interesting crime character that Jimmy was or did they watch it because they're into true crime serial killer shit. I would argue the latter. I'd watch season 2 though! Let's hope for the best. @@DianeReno
Jimmy has a way of sharing his life story that keeps you engaged in everything he says. The mini series literally is really interesting and what gets me is that this is a real life story and Jimmy pulls no punches in everything that he Did and what he went through. The whole experience of what he did once he went to the prison where that sicko serial killer was to help the FBI that alone makes one take a Deep breath not knowing what will happen in such a place. Jimmy saw the big picture which was and is the family of the victims he is a hero
@@mohanicus In some cases that's true but not all. Yellowstone started off as a limited series and ended up with many seasons. So did True Detective, so did Westworld and many more. There are talks going on in Hollywood for Black Bird 2 right now! So, like the commenter said HOPING for season 2. And a gigantically huge Black Bird fan base are all hoping for more seasons!
@@wikidbeats5958 But Jimmy is free, and we know little about how he came to be based on the series and the same with the FBI agents. Read his newest book (which was the point of the interview) and it gives a great lead into the prequel/sequel. They can do spin offs on any of the characters.
@@wikidbeats5958 Very easy! Jimmy is not locked up and he becomes a secret agent for the Government like a Jack Baurer! Or there are many other scenarios if you read his worldwide best-selling books, you will see there is plenty for a prequel/sequel.....plenty!
What an amazing interview! I read Jimmy Keene's best-selling books and they are really great reads! His Award-winning movie series "BLACK BIRD" is a must see! One of the best movie series I've ever seen! If you have not seen it yet I highly recommend it!
I have read all of Jimmy Keene's books and they are great! Then I watched the whole Black Bird series which also was amazing. This guys life is incredible! What he did for society by stopping this child rapist serial killer from ever being able to kill young girls again was a heroic act!
Great interview! I know Jimmy's story. I've read his book, In With the Devil. Black Bird is a gripping fascinating show based on his book. Keene's story is truly unique and true! Wished that the Black Bird series included some of those scenes from his book. I am currently reading his "Chicago Phoenix" book. It's fast paced. Hope they include some of these stories in a second Black Bird sequel or prequel .
Absolutely 💯amazing story, I wish people would focus on the fact how he kept this serial killer behind bars and he was never able to hurt another human being again !!
Wow his story is amazing what an interview. I love Jimmy’s books and the miniseries blackbird was absolutely wild. I can’t even imagine how he kept his cool for so long with that creep
Saw his story about 10 years ago on the show 48hrs. Fascinating. He mentioned then he was hoping to make movie on it or was already approached to document to film. Have to see the series Blackbird. Should be good.
He was on Dateline as well! His story is so unique! I watched Black Bird too! What an awesome show! Glad that he kept that sick crazy rapist child murderer behind bars!
This man has an incredible testimony from living a life that was so dangerous and out of control going to prison. Then getting such an offer that literally puts his life in danger to stop such a monster. Jimmy is a blessing to the families of the victims for helping get some closure
@@virtualworld2231 what an ignorant comment! The man was involved in the marijuana business which is now legal and something you use all the time! What a hypocrite! Much much different than a child rapist serial killer! You have a sick perverted take on this. Which obviously means you condone and support child rapist serial killers which makes you just as sick as the serial killer, and you should be locked up in prison yourself! Hope the Feds come knocking on your door soon!
@@virtualworld2231 what moral high ground are you from? There is absolutely NO comparison between a marijuana business and a CHILD rapist killer. Take the log out of your eye before passing judgement! I agree with Iris.
Because jimmy didn’t do that from the kindness of his heart he got a deal so he basically was just a criminal who was willing to snitch on another criminal
Just came here...Binged the show! I was hooked when he felt the doubt and fear pulling in to the prison! The van stopped, and everyone inside looked at him.... it was like this! " Friday night 4th down and goal w 1 sec on the clock and the team is looking at the "Guy! thier Guy! " and at that moment, it's on his shoulders....not physically to get it done but to mentally to inspire his "Guys" to believe they will get it done! It may not always workout but that mentally of F' it let's do is what makes this country. Leaders.lead! Real see's real! I'm about to watch the documentary and I'm sure there were some dramatic things added for the "big screen" but I'm also sure there were some things that were left out for the same reasons! I wished he just caved the old Italian guys head in when they only had 2 guys there but that's what made is character real! 100% Man!
Jimmy, thanks for keeping that serial rapist child killer behind bars! Thank you for the stories! I have followed your stories on CNN, Dateline, ETC... just incredible!
The apparent jealousy in SOME of the men comments is so laughable!These simpletons point out the inadequacies in themselves when attacking Jimmy's self-confidence, his character and self-assurance. Such little men! These pathetic fools lack luster and open-mindedness! Jimmy, thank you for keeping that serial rapist child killer behind prison bars! I have two teenage daughters and I am so protective of them! You did a good thing! God bless you!
I don’t watch a lot of DJ interviews but this shit is amazing. If this story is true how amazing! I just bought the book he wrote Chicago Phoenix and gonna binge Blackbird this weekend. Great spin on the ATypical true crime. We need more Jimmy Keene’s in this world. Bet he would be a great friend in a zombie outbreak to have by your side!
I Personally know Jimmy Keene and have just about my whole life....reading these negative comments makes me realize how clueless some of you people are...gotta laugh at some of these stupid comments...like any of you could have done what he did...pretty much had his life on the line and kept a child molesting killer off of the streets and you people feel the need to criticize that??? Wtf
"...Dangerous Bargain for Redemption" Jimmy Keene's book is a must read - In With the Devil: A Fallen Hero, a Serial Killer, and a Dangerous Bargain for Redemption read it for more supported facts. Jimmy caught that sick rapist killer! Thank you for sharing your stories! You did share your stories here on this platform! Very brave to be vulnerable!
@Souschef522 Jimmy's first book is "In with the Devil" A Fallen Hero, A Serial Killer and A Dangerous Bargain for REDEMPTION! It is such a great read! But my favorite is Jimmy's newest book "The Chicago Phoenix" a must read! 🙂🙂🙂
Jimmy Keene did a great deed! Who would go into a dangerous prison? Thanks Jimmy for keeping this child rapist killer behind bars! Loved this interview! I'm going to watch Black Bird now!

loved the interview...ive know jimmy and family just about my whole life...what a great story...cant wait to see whats coming down the road...congrats my friend
@annad326 I thought it was a great interview/story too. I just finished reading his new book "The Chicago Phoenix" and it was great! Very informative and filled in the blanks from the interview! Great read!
I come to YT and search Jimmy after finishing Black Bird, this is the fist thing to come up so i clicked it. Never listened to Vlad, of course I've heard of him but never listened to an interview before. God Damn his constant "OKay...." Not only throws me off but the person he is interviewing i mean for fuck sake act like you're interested in what he is saying it feels like he has a set structure of questions he refuses to get away from and kills any interesting tangent that may come up.
1:16:20 - had to go back to that scene lol. But that’s crazy. Basically reliving the moment from a different perspective. It was such a solid show but I’m glad the details weren’t specific. Cuz now I can enjoy the book
Black Bird is one of the best movie series I've ever seen. It has been nominated and won Multi-Golden Globes Multi-Emmy Noms, Multi-Critics Choice Awards, rated the #1 movie series of the year and many other awards. The Black Bird movie series is adapted from Jimmy Keene's worldwide best-selling books, which are based on his life! Check it out! 🙂🙂🙂
@@T.Sullivan And what major movie has been made about you? Oh, that's right there isn't one! Black Bird is a great movie series and Jimmy did a great deed for society by stopping a deranged sick child rapist serial killer! In normal sane people's eyes, he's a hero!
I just watched the documentary based on you and you are a freaking hero and the guy that played you could have not played it any better props to the guy that played it and more props it coming from you but you should’ve thought in that smart brain even though it got to you you should’ve tried to get him to let us use see that map you see that map I mean and more before you got mad and told him it was gonna be delivered and to go get it but oh well you did it so he won’t hurt no other little girls how the guy was raised is really fucked up though
Corroborated TRUE events based off of reports from CNN, Dateline, and other official sources about Jimmy. TRUE Hero! I have been following Jimmy since he wrote his first book and now his "Chicago Phoenix" book. Black Bird is an amazing series! I l am a big fan and I think that Jimmy did a great deed! He kept a serial child rapist killer behind bars! Thank you Jimmy!
I truly love Jimmy Keene's stories! His books and Black Bird series are also fantastic! What a great interview! Thanks Jimmy for keeping this serial rapist child murderer behind bars!
@SandyNCat I agree what Jimmy did by keeping that child rapist serial killer behind bars is a blessing to all of society! All parents are grateful for such a good deed!

One of the best shows I’ve ever watched, recommend it highly

That’s exactly what everyone is focused on, it’s what the whole mini series is about what are you talking about 🙈
Wow his story is amazing what an interview. I love Jimmy’s books and the miniseries blackbird was absolutely wild. I can’t even imagine how he kept his cool for so long with that creep
I’m sold, I’m watching that tonight!!
Saw his story about 10 years ago on the show 48hrs. Fascinating. He mentioned then he was hoping to make movie on it or was already approached to document to film. Have to see the series Blackbird. Should be good.
He was on Dateline as well! His story is so unique! I watched Black Bird too! What an awesome show! Glad that he kept that sick crazy rapist child murderer behind bars!
This man has an incredible testimony from living a life that was so dangerous and out of control going to prison. Then getting such an offer that literally puts his life in danger to stop such a monster. Jimmy is a blessing to the families of the victims for helping get some closure
lol he was a drug dealer hismelf him and that serial killer are not so much different from each other
@@virtualworld2231 what an ignorant comment! The man was involved in the marijuana business which is now legal and something you use all the time! What a hypocrite! Much much different than a child rapist serial killer! You have a sick perverted take on this. Which obviously means you condone and support child rapist serial killers which makes you just as sick as the serial killer, and you should be locked up in prison yourself! Hope the Feds come knocking on your door soon!
@@virtualworld2231 what moral high ground are you from? There is absolutely NO comparison between a marijuana business and a CHILD rapist killer. Take the log out of your eye before passing judgement! I agree with Iris.
@@virtualworld2231NO comparison! Something is really wrong with your thinking. Who are you to judge!?!
Because jimmy didn’t do that from the kindness of his heart he got a deal so he basically was just a criminal who was willing to snitch on another criminal
Just came here...Binged the show! I was hooked when he felt the doubt and fear pulling in to the prison! The van stopped, and everyone inside looked at him.... it was like this!
" Friday night 4th down and goal w 1 sec on the clock and the team is looking at the "Guy! thier Guy! " and at that moment, it's on his shoulders....not physically to get it done but to mentally to inspire his "Guys" to believe they will get it done!
It may not always workout but that mentally of F' it let's do is what makes this country. Leaders.lead! Real see's real!
I'm about to watch the documentary and I'm sure there were some dramatic things added for the "big screen" but I'm also sure there were some things that were left out for the same reasons!
I wished he just caved the old Italian guys head in when they only had 2 guys there but that's what made is character real!
100% Man!
Jimmy, thanks for keeping that serial rapist child killer behind bars! Thank you for the stories! I have followed your stories on CNN, Dateline, ETC... just incredible!
The apparent jealousy in SOME of the men comments is so laughable!These simpletons point out the inadequacies in themselves when attacking Jimmy's self-confidence, his character and self-assurance. Such little men! These pathetic fools lack luster and open-mindedness!
Jimmy, thank you for keeping that serial rapist child killer behind prison bars! I have two teenage daughters and I am so protective of them! You did a good thing! God bless you!
Honestly, he missed his calling as a detective. What he did with larry was great.
Amazing story amazing man looking forward to watching blackbird 👌 love from Scotland keep up the brilliant work Vlad!!! 🏴🇬🇧
whyay weeman
@@cue1806 🤣🤣🤣
I don’t watch a lot of DJ interviews but this shit is amazing. If this story is true how amazing! I just bought the book he wrote Chicago Phoenix and gonna binge Blackbird this weekend. Great spin on the ATypical true crime. We need more Jimmy Keene’s in this world. Bet he would be a great friend in a zombie outbreak to have by your side!
Jimmy Keene's story is true and real! His book "In With the Devil" and "Black Bird" book are based off of true events. It has been fact checked!
Going to watch Black Bird
Yes Black Bird is awesome! Probably one of the best shows I’ve ever seen and it’s based on Jimmy Keene‘s best selling books. Great great show! 👍
I Personally know Jimmy Keene and have just about my whole life....reading these negative comments makes me realize how clueless some of you people are...gotta laugh at some of these stupid comments...like any of you could have done what he did...pretty much had his life on the line and kept a child molesting killer off of the streets and you people feel the need to criticize that??? Wtf
"...Dangerous Bargain for Redemption" Jimmy Keene's book is a must read - In With the Devil: A Fallen Hero, a Serial Killer, and a Dangerous Bargain for Redemption read it for more supported facts. Jimmy caught that sick rapist killer! Thank you for sharing your stories! You did share your stories here on this platform! Very brave to be vulnerable!
@Souschef522 Jimmy's first book is "In with the Devil" A Fallen Hero, A Serial Killer and A Dangerous Bargain for REDEMPTION! It is such a great read! But my favorite is Jimmy's newest book "The Chicago Phoenix" a must read! 🙂🙂🙂
🔥🔥🔥🔥 interview fashoo
Jimmy Keene did a great deed! Who would go into a dangerous prison? Thanks Jimmy for keeping this child rapist killer behind bars! Loved this interview! I'm going to watch Black Bird now!
@Souschef522 Well said! BLACK BIRD is awesome!
alot of inmates would of done the same if they was offered almost 9 yrs off a 10 yr sentence
@bennettaintinit3095 what an ignorant jealous comment! 99.9% of inmates including you would not qualify or have the skill set do accomplish the mission and would have failed and the serial killer would have gotten out! That is why the FBI and US Attorney picked him for a reason! Remember Jimmy was able to get 6 months of recorded confessions on over 20 of the serial killer's victims and that is why the serial killer lost his appeal. Now he will stay behind bars forever, and never be able to roam free in society again to kill other people's young children! I'm a parent of young daughters and to all parents that makes Jimmy a hero!
What an incredible story! I watched Black Bird and the show deserves all the accolades! Thank you Jimmy for keeping this serial child rapist behind bars!
loved the interview...ive know jimmy and family just about my whole life...what a great story...cant wait to see whats coming down the road...congrats my friend
@user-jy9hd2wy6s I agree! Great guy, great family!
The series was ok,Ray Liotta was awesome as always.
This dude looks amazing for 59(if Vlad was right about him being 20 in '84)
Black bird good azz series 💯
What an amazing story. I just finished his new book and it was amazing! I want to know where to get a shirt like his. That logo is awesome!
@annad326 I read his new book too "The Chicago Phoenix" and it was awesome! I also want that Jimmy K logo T-shirt 🤩🤩🤩
@annad326 I thought it was a great interview/story too. I just finished reading his new book "The Chicago Phoenix" and it was great! Very informative and filled in the blanks from the interview! Great read!
This a good interview Vlad. He's actually funny. Had my headphones on and wife asked what are you laughing at. 😂
Was it because he said he runs a 4.5. Lol
That series is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Vlad has put out incredible content once again.
Keep it up Sir
I come to YT and search Jimmy after finishing Black Bird, this is the fist thing to come up so i clicked it. Never listened to Vlad, of course I've heard of him but never listened to an interview before. God Damn his constant "OKay...." Not only throws me off but the person he is interviewing i mean for fuck sake act like you're interested in what he is saying it feels like he has a set structure of questions he refuses to get away from and kills any interesting tangent that may come up.
Well done Jimmy! You got that low life scumbag! Black Bird brought me here and searched for more on your story! Incredible stories, man!
What a great interviewee fr.
Bro that show is fire ya gotta watch it if ya haven't
This interviewer needs to try say something other than “Okay” when his interviewee is done talking.
1:16:20 - had to go back to that scene lol. But that’s crazy. Basically reliving the moment from a different perspective. It was such a solid show but I’m glad the details weren’t specific. Cuz now I can enjoy the book
Black Bird is one of the best movie series I've ever seen. It has been nominated and won Multi-Golden Globes Multi-Emmy Noms, Multi-Critics Choice Awards, rated the #1 movie series of the year and many other awards. The Black Bird movie series is adapted from Jimmy Keene's worldwide best-selling books, which are based on his life!
Check it out! 🙂🙂🙂
It ain’t that good RELAX
@@T.Sullivan Thats a matter of opinion, I love it and everyone I know loves it!
And with a 98% rating seems most people really do too.
@@T.Sullivan And what major movie has been made about you? Oh, that's right there isn't one! Black Bird is a great movie series and Jimmy did a great deed for society by stopping a deranged sick child rapist serial killer! In normal sane people's eyes, he's a hero!
I just watched the documentary based on you and you are a freaking hero and the guy that played you could have not played it any better props to the guy that played it and more props it coming from you but you should’ve thought in that smart brain even though it got to you you should’ve tried to get him to let us use see that map you see that map I mean and more before you got mad and told him it was gonna be delivered and to go get it but oh well you did it so he won’t hurt no other little girls how the guy was raised is really fucked up though
Jimmy is a cool dude
Corroborated TRUE events based off of reports from CNN, Dateline, and other official sources about Jimmy. TRUE Hero! I have been following Jimmy since he wrote his first book and now his "Chicago Phoenix" book. Black Bird is an amazing series! I l am a big fan and I think that Jimmy did a great deed! He kept a serial child rapist killer behind bars! Thank you Jimmy!
@SandyNCat very well said Sandy! I agree!
I truly love Jimmy Keene's stories! His books and Black Bird series are also fantastic! What a great interview! Thanks Jimmy for keeping this serial rapist child murderer behind bars!
@SandyNCat I agree what Jimmy did by keeping that child rapist serial killer behind bars is a blessing to all of society! All parents are grateful for such a good deed!
Best Interview i've heard on this channel in awhile even though that guy seems to think he can take down an army by himself.
I like this guy 😂
Man say I’d knock a serial killer into his next life
First time hearing this vlog but thehost is kinda bad
Really good series.
