He is lying his azz off in alot of this. If you grew up on the streets you'd know. He does tell good stories, even if they aren't true or embellished the Hell out of 🤣🤣
@@texn9326 can you give deeper explanation as to how he's lying? I'm not against what your saying I just wanna understand what your saying on a deeper level
You people have just led boring lives. When you're from the streets his stories don't seem so outrageous and unbelievable. I've been through shit I'll never speak on. Johnny has absolutely no reason to lie.
Johnny can manically tell a detailed story while simultaneously directing traffic and conducting music, all while keeping his eyes closed. I'm impressed!!!
I love Johnny because Mark can literally just sit there, he doesn't have to ask Johnny questions, stop him to confirm something, Johnny just goes and talks and gets you absorbed into the story
Explain to me how a 65 year old grandmother from the Midwest can listen to this man’s stories and love every minute.. I’m completely captivated and like a good book, I can’t walk away until the very end. I wish he could make money doing this, so he never takes the risk of going back to jail ever again. He has a gift and I’m so glad he’s willing to share it, I just wish he could make an honest living doing this. Thank you Johnny.
I'll explain how a 65 year old grandmother from the Midwest can listen to this man's stories and love every minute >>> You and your kids didn't grow up in these neighborhoods. Being a kid and having to zig zag around dudes like this in order to stay out of trouble or get your head bashed in by a couple of them for no reason like i did, was not as glamorous as you might think. The fact that my brother and i didn't join my neighborhood gang made it to where they treated us like we didn't belong there. I'd challenge any of you to take your kids and move into one of these neighborhoods, and come back and tell me you love to hear what this man's got to say.
@@IZRRL you’re right. I failed to recognize my ignorance regarding my statement. I can’t imagine what it must be like to live in a city that’s run by gangs. I grew up completely opposite to what this man is talking about. I shouldn’t see it as glamorous or romantic at any level. My shallow statements were not thought through. I’m sorry for that, but thank you for enlightening me. You presented another level for me to think about. I’ve learned a good lesson, so please accept my apology. The Soft White Underbelly is my first glimpse into this world. I honestly had no idea what life is like in these neighborhoods or on skid row. In fact, I wish Mark would interview people who grew up in and around, but yet escaped becoming a gang member, drug dealer or prostitute.

@@gregkis I don't think it sucks, Johnny is a good story teller, which makes it interesting, but I still enjoy other videos. You should watch the one about Gummo the Hacker for example.

I'm why people feel the need to correct you ...Yes Johnny is high on H but he is purposely closing his eyes to reminisce , Anyone who's Actually caught a Nod before Can tell yes Johnny is High but he's Not So high his eyes are stuck closed... he's doing it on purpose while he pictures his memorys ...
Keep Jonnys stories coming mark. His story is a classic story of a young man growing up in gang infested neighborhoods in LA. This stuff is important for many generations to come.
Great movie? Sooooo many are in his way. I can’t imagine it be your car he stole or someone in his way who gets hurt or killed. Sad as it can be. What leads someone to do such things and what can we do about it? Hurting people, hurt people. Why are cops exasperated?
@@claircook4768..yes ma'am,its all bad things that he did in his past,I'm aware. There's really nothing great about it,I know,it is sad. But his story telling gift is great (I hope that makes sense)
I would just like to say that this channel and johhnys stories have done so much for me personally, I have been a heroin addict for 2 years and I've made my first week sober. I'll never forget Johnny's story about smelling Roses flowers, all smells of life coming back. i was crying. a real one who knows. mad love to mark and Johnny. you guys have done so much for me. this channel needs to be taught in schools!

maybe the story telling comes as a result of the meaningless gang violence, if you watch other gang member videos they all are pretty good at telling stories. I think that has a lot to do with life experience in general.
I know the neighborhood Johnny is speaking of. I worked at a high school in that area for almost 30 years and I remember stories some of the kids would tell me. He is captivating, so much so, that I had to comment. Mark, thanks for allowing people to be heard.

I'm absolutely taken by Johnnys' storytelling abilities, each one is different is his animations and the emotion put in it. I never want the session to end, I always want more stories. Hope hes doing okay.
Johnny, you have an incredible ability to tell a story and keep your listener engaged in every word. I appreciate your personal story and that you shared it with us. Thank you for letting us strangers into your world and best wishes in all you do.
One damned impressive storyteller, & I’ve heard some of the best. Speaks clear, no stumbling over words, manages to talk for so long and never lose his place. Very impressive.
He needs to be a character in the next GTA. I grew up in Pico Rivera ca right next to Norwalk and I was a teenager in the late 80s early 90s. I know how the area was back then. And he is telling the truth lol crazy. Johnny you’re the man.
@@JimiBegbaaji I don't want to be rude but how have you never heard of GTA atleast as the games not the actual charge for stealing a car, it's been in the news and popular media for like 20 years at this point lol
@@honeychubbs 😂 I know of the game. I just never caught it as an acronym. No one in my circle plays it, either. So, it wasn't front of mind when I came across it. 🤭
I'm thinking johnny would be a great motivational speaker to deter highschool youth away from gangs & violence. To warn them through his own experiences. His speech~~ ""How not to be like me" ~~ He could really help kids in a healthy way and possibly save them from joining a deadly gang life.
I love it, he's not trying to be scary or talk bigger than life, he's always really straight forward. I think a lot of people could learn from his past, somewhere out there is a kid who hasn't been locked up once and his family and friends might be pulling him in, he's gotta save them from that cycle. You don't wanna be locked up once.
I love real shit.... and I love when I can see the genuiness in somebody and here the authenticity of the story being told and the lesson being conveyed... take a bow my guy... like my father told me when I was lost mentally in what my purpose was "maybe you lived through and went through all the things you've been through so that others wont have to too" he said "starting with your children and the ones close to you and let that shit spread outward. Maybe it'll save a life or two or 3...""" and that stuck with me. But I enjoyed the time you shared on this platform homie... much love braddah... #LastOfADyingBreed
Johnny needs to get his own podcast and call it story time telling with Johnny, coming up my parents were strict so my life was totally opposite of what Johnny is talking about but yet at the same time I am holding on to his every word this man knows how to tell a story he is Flowing consistent not dragging his words and making it boring but fast encaptivating
Here’s a k9 exclusive for you k9 fan. Early 90’s loads of graffiti and petty crimes turned into out of town storefront robberies starting around 12 all the way through 21. My neighborhood was a split between nortenos and surenos and other Hispanic and black gangs that were further down. California had some rough areas and still does. Setting set. 2:00am-ish 4 other friends about 24 cans of spray paint on the highway in a really exposed spot of the highway called Highway 101. Loads of sneaky stuff and we finished out pieces and were sneaking back onto the other side of the huge wall that separated the highway roads and neighborhoods on the other side. Walking back the way we came in, stopping for car lights, ducking then continuing on. Clear as day we hear radio noise and everything went quiet, all of us stopped walking in unison. No kidding, one loud crunch from us stepping and we heard radio noise undoubtedly that time and we heard really low a white guy say some police shit basically saying nobody use the radio. So we booked it the other way and we hear him fumbling and yelling stuff wrong in the beginning and the last part was clear “There’s no cars”. Running away none of that clicked. We ran and I had my paint still realizing everything was running empty handed. I threw my paint, heard sirens on the other side of the wall. I was winded and knew I had to hide or I’d get caught so we boosted each other over to a tree we used to get over and my heaviest friend was last and we got him up slower and that was the first time I heard barking. The horse hooves Johnny mentioned hahaha yeah German Shepard’s got some big paws! Once he noticed us on the tree getting out last friend over his barks were loud loud and whimper-y. We all split up running down different back streets and I picked close to the wall as a hiding place because they’d never think I’d be that brave or stupid. I heard police cars zooming by and the dog barking. I heard sirens for a while then only gravel from car tires cop rolling up and down the blocks from the spot I was I could see the way we came down off the wall, and the k-9 was there smelling where we had to land when we jumped from the wall. Saw one flashlight shine the dogs direction then for a few minutes just the dog circling smelling around in that one spot. Being terrified he’s gonna smell me and find me I try to get down off the camper I climbed onto to hide on top of. Getting down made a lot of noise because of the tarp covering the top of the camper and when I hit the floor I heard nails and bolted into the closest backyard that had the gate half opened and I swiped the door closed and didn’t hear the clank from it closing and a split second later I was feeling the most intense mauling I’ve ever experienced. I screamed a deathly scream. Thick jeans plus calve muscles mean gnarly grip. I knew exactly why Johnny mentioned it the way he mentioned it. He mentioned how he heard his friend scream. Then right after added his friend also got to hear him scream haha. The dog honesty sounds and looks like he wants to kill you. I wrestled with the dog for an eternity it felt like and now heard voices yelling at me to do things. One voice said let go the other voice was yelling fooss and all I could see or feel was wet from slobber or blood. My jacket was now off and sleeves inside out wrapped around my right side and the dog. While fighting I felt nothing the whole struggle. Getting thrashed around by a dog with teeth so big is no joke. The pain hit me like a semi truck when they had me by the passenger door/hood. I heard the white guy voice again. Pretty distinctive and I looked and he’s just how I imagined. Standard white cop face and demeanor. He said some police stuff for get medical and he said something to the other cop and came to me and said that is why you never run from a cop with a ‘go switch’ and gave me a grin. The police officer got the last laugh in this story and isn’t one of my proudest moments. Your comment plus Johnny’s mention took me back to my youth and how much further I’ve become as my own person. I’m proud of where I came from and the person I’ve worked hard to become. I would like to 2nd your statements, Johnny is an excellent story teller, I also love dogs and have a special kind of admiration for k9 dogs but that’s all, and most importantly if any young people read this, none of this should glorify it for you, let these experiences and real life stories serve as an example of what not to do. STAY IN SCHOOL!
How can anyone be a fan of police dogs when the only time we see them being used is when subjects are already detained or when they are abused by the k9 handler?
Johnny and Reilly are my favorite. Their stories are wild and so authentic. Amazing story tellers. Johnny you remind me of my Uncles 💜 (thank you for sharing)
It would be amazing if Johnny went to schools and talk to kids about his crazy stories, his story telling is so captivating, im sure it would change and turn around someone's life!
@@jameslast7559 nah, Johnny doesn't glorify the life he led he just tells of the hardships and fucked up shit he did and how it's NOT the way to go. The shit they feed you now in school is propaganda (D.A.R.E) and if anything makes kids even more curious to drugs and maybe even crime. Older kids need to hear how things really are with someone they can relate to and from someone that doesn't sound like they're trying to sell you on something
Johnny gives swiveling chairs the most use I have ever seen, stories are entertaining too!! The interviewer actually went to lunch, came back and Johnny didn't even know!🙂
Living in Johnny’s neighborhood growing up I can see everything he says from the family stories the streets, growing up here in Santa Fe springs back then was crazy but I wouldn’t have it any other way I love my city. 🙏🏻
Yeah he's great at story telling, if you want to listen to some good gangster stories go to stories written by a current prisoner. Just like Johny some stories are insane!
Such an Intelligent and strong man. I wonder what Jonny would of turned out to be if he had childhood that didn’t revolve around the gang life. Respect
You’re just as low IQ as this goof.. he has destroyed so many people in one way or another and you have respect? Ffs .. how are we not extinct with such stupidity?🙄
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick I was just into his story at the time and and didn’t realize how much of a nutt job he really his. I grew up hating guys like him.
He is the definition of street smart. Solid vato, no nonsense, tells it like it is. Not too many have lived and survived the shit he's been through. And now he shares his truths. Respects to him
Can’t listen to this video since my daughter was the victim of the theft of her Celica. She had worked since 15 to save for this used car, it was beautiful and she had only had it 2 weeks. I was a single mother of 3 daughters, their alcoholic father had deserted them. The police found it a few hours later completely stripped. There was not even a bolt left. My heart broke, my daughters had been through enough already.
The people here praising this guy for his storytelling have obviously never been victims of crimes such as the many Johnny has perpetrated. There is nothing praiseworthy about being a criminal and inflicting harm and grief to others.
Johnny should talk about his breakdancing and pop-locking days! He’s one of the best popLockers I’ve ever seen would be dope to see him pop lock on his next episode!
While I agree Johnny is a good story teller, people are dying left and right in these stories. Don't forget y'all. These are stories of violence and treachery, and young boys losing their innocence (not only that, bu often their very lives).
@@lizbetgarcia8986 Ok.. I respect your opinion, but if you or your son or father or brother or daughter etc..were a victim of his murderous rampages or any number of despicable crimes he puts people through I’m sure you wouldn’t think he’s an ok guy.. Just because he’s a great talker doesn’t mean he’s a good person., It blows my mind how simple people are and can’t see through to his heartless ugly soul.. And this is only the stuff he actually admits.. He’s obviously a serial killer.. and he’s obviously still capable of horrible atrocities.,
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick no can push judgment upon anyone .... We all walk different paths.... If he has paid his debt to society few times..... I've been here has done more for his friends than 99% people today would for their friends .....
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick hes literally telling these stories to bring awareness. He isnt a lowlife, hes probably changing the opinions of many kids who want to become gang members. Hes bringing awareness to the gang life.
Dude, i lived in San Antonio, the only gringo in a Mexican neighborhood. Very rare and i did get my ass handed to me until i established mutual respect with all my Texmex brothers. I know and have met alot of cool vato's but you are absolutely the most interesting and legit man i have come across. Love your honesty and way you speak and carry yourself. You exhibit the true gang respect that in the old days was there amongst all the gangs regardless of what race or gang they belonged to. Now punks are shooting up neighborhoods and don't even know why. They claim it's about respect. Most of them today would piss their pants if you approached them and put them in their place. Keep on being yourself. You are a true Mexican American gangster that is one of the last of a dying breed. Pun intended...
This is Mr. Lo and Behold! Lol still got his eyes shut since running those red lights!! 💯 And don't you just love when a G is telling a story all dramatic but at certain parts they whisper...shits legendary!
Johnny you made me laugh this morning talking about all this stuff you have been through but never saw a mf throw up! So funny that that is what freaked you out. Thanks for your stories. I’ve been listening to all your videos this past week. I truly wish you the best. You are a great talker.
It's nice to provide a forum where worthless people can tell stories that make them feel accomplished and intelligent because they're rated in an economy of scumbags and lowlifes. If he never compares himself to a father who sacrifices and provides for his children, or a scholar who spends countless hours preparing his mind to better mankind, or a soldier who sacrifices his life to defend lives instead of prey on them, he's really accomplished. Instead, he's harmed every child, every woman, every family member he's come into contact with, hurt his neighbors, and destroyed lives in his community, and he's standing proud. Even had idiots validating him. What a wasted life.
Wish Johnny could turn it around~so articulate and what a great storyteller! He needs to write all those stories down. Hope and pray he gets it together- If you can breathe, you can change. Peace❤️
I remember Johnny told that story about his homeboy having to hide him before.. I can’t remember how it started the first time he told it, but from being hid because he couldn’t run to getting found and bit by the dog all coincides with the original version..! Lol
This dude is the greatest story teller…. I’m sitting here with Covid and he is entertaining me. Whether or not he’s telling the truth don’t even matter.
I love how Johnny tells these stories. He can talk non stop. makes you feel like you was actually there.
Yeah because he is high as fuck on heroin hh
@@flxxy4378 He maybe high, but closing his eyes is just helping him envision a image so he can describe the story in the most detailed ways.

Instagram?
One hell of a teller

No need to let small tiny thing like the truth get in the way of an interesting story!

Love Johnny’s stories, was a dope surprise to open UA-cam and see this!
I love how he doesn’t call females “bitches” or hoes . It’s always his homegirls or women lol
How OG put out themselves to the world
... unless he's pimping them out!
Cuz he Latino! Not black
You mean exactly like Sharp? 😂
I Love him....so much respect...xxx
Johnny, you have an incredible ability to tell a story and keep your listener engaged in every word. I appreciate your personal story and that you shared it with us. Thank you for letting us strangers into your world and best wishes in all you do.
One damned impressive storyteller, & I’ve heard some of the best. Speaks clear, no stumbling over words, manages to talk for so long and never lose his place. Very impressive.
This is the content I look forward to
I can listen to this channel for hours. Great content!
We need a quentin Tarantino movie based on Johnny’s life. Someone needs to write his story lol
It's already wrote my guy we good 😂
Verdad!
YESSSS!!!
David ayer
Blood in blood out
Can we get this man in these high schools and middle schools to speak with the youth about his experiences 🙌🏻
I’m at work listening to this and I can just picture everything vividly , great story teller
Johnny can we see some family portraits pleaseeee. I think we’d all love to see a young Johnny in his PRIME😈
Prolly looks like a straight g lol you can tell he’s all bout that shit
Yes!!!!
How can u see them
Good looking actually
I seen pics of him when he was younger
@@melissalove460 where
He has the best stories hands down, respect OG
He needs to be a character in the next GTA. I grew up in Pico Rivera ca right next to Norwalk and I was a teenager in the late 80s early 90s. I know how the area was back then. And he is telling the truth lol crazy. Johnny you’re the man.
@Jose Luis Avila What does GTA stand for?
I grew up in El Monte,Ca but I'm very familiar with all that area also.
@@JimiBegbaaji I don't want to be rude but how have you never heard of GTA atleast as the games not the actual charge for stealing a car, it's been in the news and popular media for like 20 years at this point lol
@@honeychubbs 😂 I know of the game. I just never caught it as an acronym. No one in my circle plays it, either. So, it wasn't front of mind when I came across it. 🤭
@@honeychubbs Also, here in the UK, when I worked with the police, the terminology was TWOC - Taking Without Consent.
He has his eyes closed to remember in every detail how every thing in his life went, he relives every detail. Dang crazy life....
Johnny needs to make a podcast of his own, I’ll bet he would get a shit load of subscribers.
He really should consider a podcast
I bet he would!
💯💯💯
As long as subscribers gave him $$ for drugs.
Nobody’s going to listen to this crackhead 😂
Mannnnn go find Johnny's brother for more stories. Johnny one of your best if not the best storie teller you have
Was happy to see Johnny’s face when I clicked on UA-cam today! Wish you well Johnny! 👍🏽💜
I'm thinking johnny would be a great motivational speaker to deter highschool youth away from gangs & violence.
To warn them through his own experiences.
His speech~~
""How not to be like me" ~~
He could really help kids in a healthy way and possibly save them from joining a deadly gang life.
I love it, he's not trying to be scary or talk bigger than life, he's always really straight forward.
I think a lot of people could learn from his past, somewhere out there is a kid who hasn't been locked up once and his family and friends might be pulling him in, he's gotta save them from that cycle.
You don't wanna be locked up once.
Yes!
He isn’t detouring lol
The most entertaining guest so far, glad this man has overcame his past and can now tell his experiences to help guide the youth at least
I love real shit.... and I love when I can see the genuiness in somebody and here the authenticity of the story being told and the lesson being conveyed... take a bow my guy... like my father told me when I was lost mentally in what my purpose was "maybe you lived through and went through all the things you've been through so that others wont have to too" he said "starting with your children and the ones close to you and let that shit spread outward. Maybe it'll save a life or two or 3...""" and that stuck with me. But I enjoyed the time you shared on this platform homie... much love braddah... #LastOfADyingBreed
More Johnny interviews please. Love listening to him talk
This vato has that old school cholo swagger... Good speaker
Eyes anxiously closed in anticipation of a epic story. Let's go!!!!
The way he's closing his eyes when he's telling his story really shows he's reliving the moment.
Johnny needs to get his own podcast and call it story time telling with Johnny, coming up my parents were strict so my life was totally opposite of what Johnny is talking about but yet at the same time I am holding on to his every word this man knows how to tell a story he is Flowing consistent not dragging his words and making it boring but fast encaptivating
When Johnny says Lo and behold he’s about to drop a bombshell 😎 dudes awesome and has lived a life
This is the best person you've ever had on here. And there are a lot of really good ones.
Johnny is a natural born story teller. I’m a huge fan of the police dogs! Moral of the story......”Stay in school kids!!” 😁😁😁😁
God bless johnny
Here’s a k9 exclusive for you k9 fan.
Early 90’s loads of graffiti and petty crimes turned into out of town storefront robberies starting around 12 all the way through 21. My neighborhood was a split between nortenos and surenos and other Hispanic and black gangs that were further down. California had some rough areas and still does. Setting set.
2:00am-ish 4 other friends about 24 cans of spray paint on the highway in a really exposed spot of the highway called Highway 101. Loads of sneaky stuff and we finished out pieces and were sneaking back onto the other side of the huge wall that separated the highway roads and neighborhoods on the other side. Walking back the way we came in, stopping for car lights, ducking then continuing on. Clear as day we hear radio noise and everything went quiet, all of us stopped walking in unison. No kidding, one loud crunch from us stepping and we heard radio noise undoubtedly that time and we heard really low a white guy say some police shit basically saying nobody use the radio. So we booked it the other way and we hear him fumbling and yelling stuff wrong in the beginning and the last part was clear “There’s no cars”. Running away none of that clicked. We ran and I had my paint still realizing everything was running empty handed. I threw my paint, heard sirens on the other side of the wall. I was winded and knew I had to hide or I’d get caught so we boosted each other over to a tree we used to get over and my heaviest friend was last and we got him up slower and that was the first time I heard barking. The horse hooves Johnny mentioned hahaha yeah German Shepard’s got some big paws! Once he noticed us on the tree getting out last friend over his barks were loud loud and whimper-y. We all split up running down different back streets and I picked close to the wall as a hiding place because they’d never think I’d be that brave or stupid. I heard police cars zooming by and the dog barking. I heard sirens for a while then only gravel from car tires cop rolling up and down the blocks from the spot I was I could see the way we came down off the wall, and the k-9 was there smelling where we had to land when we jumped from the wall. Saw one flashlight shine the dogs direction then for a few minutes just the dog circling smelling around in that one spot. Being terrified he’s gonna smell me and find me I try to get down off the camper I climbed onto to hide on top of. Getting down made a lot of noise because of the tarp covering the top of the camper and when I hit the floor I heard nails and bolted into the closest backyard that had the gate half opened and I swiped the door closed and didn’t hear the clank from it closing and a split second later I was feeling the most intense mauling I’ve ever experienced. I screamed a deathly scream. Thick jeans plus calve muscles mean gnarly grip. I knew exactly why Johnny mentioned it the way he mentioned it. He mentioned how he heard his friend scream. Then right after added his friend also got to hear him scream haha. The dog honesty sounds and looks like he wants to kill you. I wrestled with the dog for an eternity it felt like and now heard voices yelling at me to do things. One voice said let go the other voice was yelling fooss and all I could see or feel was wet from slobber or blood. My jacket was now off and sleeves inside out wrapped around my right side and the dog. While fighting I felt nothing the whole struggle. Getting thrashed around by a dog with teeth so big is no joke. The pain hit me like a semi truck when they had me by the passenger door/hood. I heard the white guy voice again. Pretty distinctive and I looked and he’s just how I imagined. Standard white cop face and demeanor.
He said some police stuff for get medical and he said something to the other cop and came to me and said that is why you never run from a cop with a ‘go switch’ and gave me a grin. The police officer got the last laugh in this story and isn’t one of my proudest moments. Your comment plus Johnny’s mention took me back to my youth and how much further I’ve become as my own person. I’m proud of where I came from and the person I’ve worked hard to become. I would like to 2nd your statements, Johnny is an excellent story teller, I also love dogs and have a special kind of admiration for k9 dogs but that’s all, and most importantly if any young people read this, none of this should glorify it for you, let these experiences and real life stories serve as an example of what not to do. STAY IN SCHOOL!
@@rival3822 👏👏👏
How can anyone be a fan of police dogs when the only time we see them being used is when subjects are already detained or when they are abused by the k9 handler?
Tell me about I can picture my dad telling his future grandchildren all these stories just like he told us growing up lol 😅
Praying for you every day. You are here for a reason.
Johnny and Reilly are my favorite. Their stories are wild and so authentic. Amazing story tellers. Johnny you remind me of my Uncles 💜 (thank you for sharing)
I absolutely love Johnny I get hyped every time I see and interview with him, his stories are so interesting.
It would be amazing if Johnny went to schools and talk to kids about his crazy stories, his story telling is so captivating, im sure it would change and turn around someone's life!
A very stupid idea!!!
@@jameslast7559 nah, Johnny doesn't glorify the life he led he just tells of the hardships and fucked up shit he did and how it's NOT the way to go. The shit they feed you now in school is propaganda (D.A.R.E) and if anything makes kids even more curious to drugs and maybe even crime. Older kids need to hear how things really are with someone they can relate to and from someone that doesn't sound like they're trying to sell you on something
Always look forward to Johnny’s Gangster tales
Johnny gives swiveling chairs the most use I have ever seen, stories are entertaining too!! The interviewer actually went to lunch, came back and Johnny didn't even know!🙂
Living in Johnny’s neighborhood growing up I can see everything he says from the family stories the streets, growing up here in Santa Fe springs back then was crazy but I wouldn’t have it any other way I love my city. 🙏🏻
Been patiently waiting to see him again 💯🐐
Johnnie & Louis are hands down the best story tellers on this channel.
Yeah he's great at story telling, if you want to listen to some good gangster stories go to stories written by a current prisoner. Just like Johny some stories are insane!
I agree 💯
Agreed
Johnny doesn't share inappropriate things.
I love Louis but he needs to censor himself.
Such an Intelligent and strong man. I wonder what Jonny would of turned out to be if he had childhood that didn’t revolve around the gang life. Respect
You’re just as low IQ as this goof.. he has destroyed so many people in one way or another and you have respect? Ffs .. how are we not extinct with such stupidity?🙄
@@anthonysolis8933 😂🤣
My comment is miss leading. This is not a good example of a strong or intelligent man, in fact he is opposite of a strong and intelligent man.
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick I was just into his story at the time and and didn’t realize how much of a nutt job he really his. I grew up hating guys like him.
I honestly think he is just giving mark a ride
I watched a video of him fir the first time yesterday. I was so captivated by his stories. He’s incredible ❤️
You cant deny he is telling this story out of pure ptsd and memory
Johnny! I absolutely love his videos! I’m glad he came back to share some more life experiences.
I haven’t even watched this yet but I had to comment first I stay checking up on the channel just to hear more of his stories 💯💯💯💯
DAMN Johnny is on another level when it comes to entertaining on this channel...Fires off words nonstop like an AK
He is the definition of street smart. Solid vato, no nonsense, tells it like it is. Not too many have lived and survived the shit he's been through. And now he shares his truths. Respects to him
Johnny's interviews are the best!!!!!
I'm watching this from South Africa🇿🇦🌍in KwaZulu-Natal province
Hello from Houston Texas...🎀

Can’t listen to this video since my daughter was the victim of the theft of her Celica. She had worked since 15 to save for this used car, it was beautiful and she had only had it 2 weeks. I was a single mother of 3 daughters, their alcoholic father had deserted them. The police found it a few hours later completely stripped. There was not even a bolt left. My heart broke, my daughters had been through enough already.
The people here praising this guy for his storytelling have obviously never been victims of crimes such as the many Johnny has perpetrated. There is nothing praiseworthy about being a criminal and inflicting harm and grief to others.
I thought he crashed it
He should be a director or be a writer..ACTION packed stories
Johnny should talk about his breakdancing and pop-locking days! He’s one of the best popLockers I’ve ever seen would be dope to see him pop lock on his next episode!
Say whaaa
;
Dude I'm so glad you made this channel.
While I agree Johnny is a good story teller, people are dying left and right in these stories. Don't forget y'all. These are stories of violence and treachery, and young boys losing their innocence (not only that, bu often their very lives).
Exactly.. this guy is a lowlife loser..
He stated in the beginning he wants kids to hear so they can be different. He’s not a lowlife every human is different. Just a poor soul lost.
@@lizbetgarcia8986 Ok.. I respect your opinion, but if you or your son or father or brother or daughter etc..were a victim of his murderous rampages or any number of despicable crimes he puts people through I’m sure you wouldn’t think he’s an ok guy.. Just because he’s a great talker doesn’t mean he’s a good person., It blows my mind how simple people are and can’t see through to his heartless ugly soul.. And this is only the stuff he actually admits.. He’s obviously a serial killer.. and he’s obviously still capable of horrible atrocities.,
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick no can push judgment upon anyone .... We all walk different paths.... If he has paid his debt to society few times..... I've been here has done more for his friends than 99% people today would for their friends .....
@@West-rn-showvn-ist-chick hes literally telling these stories to bring awareness. He isnt a lowlife, hes probably changing the opinions of many kids who want to become gang members. Hes bringing awareness to the gang life.
Johnny's stories are wild and crazy but the way he tells them is much fun he has the knack best to you Johnny
These are the ones that a hot bath, 16 hours sleep, a shave, new clothes that fit and a haircut would make them look 30 years younger.
Dude, i lived in San Antonio, the only gringo in a Mexican neighborhood. Very rare and i did get my ass handed to me until i established mutual respect with all my Texmex brothers. I know and have met alot of cool vato's but you are absolutely the most interesting and legit man i have come across. Love your honesty and way you speak and carry yourself. You exhibit the true gang respect that in the old days was there amongst all the gangs regardless of what race or gang they belonged to. Now punks are shooting up neighborhoods and don't even know why. They claim it's about respect. Most of them today would piss their pants if you approached them and put them in their place. Keep on being yourself. You are a true Mexican American gangster that is one of the last of a dying breed. Pun intended...
He said "Texmex brothers" 🤣🤣
How did your family end up living there?
Like why did they pick that neighborhood to live?
@@GORILLA_PIMP what is a Tex Mex? It sounds like a burrito or something.
San Antonio?puro barbacoa and big red over there.
I think your priorities are warped beyond repair.
This is Mr. Lo and Behold! Lol still got his eyes shut since running those red lights!! 💯 And don't you just love when a G is telling a story all dramatic but at certain parts they whisper...shits legendary!
Cops: we take u to juvenile hall
Johnny: ok, whatever... 😂
😂😂😂
like a real g
The REALEST of the REAL JOHNNY👈🏾
Keep Johnny's story coming.
frr!!
Johnny you made me laugh this morning talking about all this stuff you have been through but never saw a mf throw up! So funny that that is what freaked you out. Thanks for your stories. I’ve been listening to all your videos this past week. I truly wish you the best. You are a great talker.
This Channel will bring so much good, it humanizes people to their real core
Johnny's back, by far the most interesting individual on this channel.
You think he has his eyes closed telling his story but he's really trained and looking at hand movements apparently. Legend
R u serious? Who told u that? He has his eyes closed because he is high af on heroin and/or opioids.
@@yui_bernz Issa joke
He's a drug addicted crackhead.
Tecato....smack addict
It's nice to provide a forum where worthless people can tell stories that make them feel accomplished and intelligent because they're rated in an economy of scumbags and lowlifes. If he never compares himself to a father who sacrifices and provides for his children, or a scholar who spends countless hours preparing his mind to better mankind, or a soldier who sacrifices his life to defend lives instead of prey on them, he's really accomplished. Instead, he's harmed every child, every woman, every family member he's come into contact with, hurt his neighbors, and destroyed lives in his community, and he's standing proud. Even had idiots validating him. What a wasted life.
I. Love. This. Guy. Keep these stories coming!!
I always hit like on Johnny's videos before I've even watched them! What a larger than life character hehe. Kind regards from England, Johnny :)
Wish Johnny could turn it around~so articulate and what a great storyteller! He needs to write all those stories down. Hope and pray he gets it together- If you can breathe, you can change. Peace❤️
Love Johnny! I watch his videos over and over. 💯🔥😎👊👊
Me too he’s dope
Cleaning my house listening to this. Wow real story time for real
I hope you are cleaning it with your eyes open.
@@MrAndyCarlos and just a maid apron thing on... lol
@@McRemmyBaby 😂
@@MrAndyCarlos 😆😆😆🔥
Same and I never clean 🙃😂
I remember Johnny told that story about his homeboy having to hide him before.. I can’t remember how it started the first time he told it, but from being hid because he couldn’t run to getting found and bit by the dog all coincides with the original version..! Lol
Also the one with defending his aunt
thats how u kno its 💯
This dude is the greatest story teller…. I’m sitting here with Covid and he is entertaining me. Whether or not he’s telling the truth don’t even matter.
Such a captivating storyteller. I could listen to him all day.
