having a RUSS interview is LITERALLY ICONIC SIS. there will NVR be another RUSS..people really can’t comprehend the impact that man has had on the music industry. absolute GENIUS.
I love Russ even more after this pod, this was such a healing episode in many forms. It felt like you both were healing through each other’s point of view
The frequency in this interview is amazing you guys are not trying hard you just talking about healing and growing and that's needed in this generation god bless you B for this episode it's gonna help a lot of people, it's not to be perfect and love yourself. Whoever is reading this I wish you all the love and healing to your journey don't stop now continue that's a treasure at the end❤
Masterclass of an interview. I aspire to be on this show one day. What amazing real conversations were had in such a necessary time. Much love to you both!
ACCEPT THE FACT THAT IT HAPPENED, that’s the first step to forgive yourself❤️ don’t want to cut out any part of you because that is what makes you YOU . We gotta free ourselves✨ Great pod
That talk you gave us in Ontario, CA on Saturday….B your voice is stronger than you know. You had my hg in tears…to see you from BabygirlTV to Know for Sure to LTTA is truly inspiring…definition of resilience ❤
This was a great episode that allowed B Simone to expand on her interviewing expertise. This wasn’t a guest that communicated like other female guests (agreeable, finishing each others sentences - in the best way of course) but someone who we as supporters had to actively listen to. Active listening is so much more necessary when communicating with someone who is unlike you - no interrupting. I loved this!
I'm afraid that I'm running out of Russ interviews and podcast -.- Soo inspirational and helpful. When your favorite singer becomes somehow of a mentor, you are in the right direction.
Loved this interview bc I’ve seen every Russ interview the last decade and you asked more personal questions I’ve never heard someone ask him, true fan interviewing him ❤
RUSS does deserve his flowers!!! I went to his concert at the forum and I purposely got floor tickets to give him his flowers but security took them away. But anywho overall it was an amazing show, keep inspiring others to be themselves selves, I’ve seen Russ 4 times now and I can’t believe how big the crowd keep getting.
I went through my worst relationship problems in 2022. I was living in my truck, dropping out of college for the second time, getting drunk in parking lots and his song "Waves" had me bawling my eyes out one night hanging on the wheel just feeling every word.
B saying how he is her confidence is how I feel about her. From watching vids of you speaking things to existence and how you even write it in your journey. Dope to see both Russ and B doing this ❤️🙏🏻
You forgive yourself by being thankful for the person you were because without you going through everything you went through and without you moving through different versions of yourself you wouldn’t be the person you are today and you wouldn’t be where you are today so forgiveness comes from gratitude but also in the understanding that everything happens for a reason because everything is so nuanced and when you start to really look at the finer details of life and everyday circumstances you realize that almost nothing is black and white and there is always a gray area and it’s as certain as knowing the sun will set and rise
The deeper we dig the easier it will be to heal. People that are surface and never explore the whys and ask the hard questions never find the answers. Conviction and rebuke is good for our evolution. At some point we have to learn from our mistakes and accept that version of ourselves and strive to be a better person. We didn't always know what we know now.
i love the last conversation about you asking about his faith. i feel a lot of russ’s stress roots from not having a relationship with Jesus. you came to him with love and support and even though you’re a Christian you showed him we all face the same temptation as humans. you planted a seed. ❤️
i’ve been a russ fan since the beginning but him opening up even more on this pod just shows how much of an amazing person he really is😭 made me love him even more
I have never resonated with another interview like this one before -- regardless of the fame or not, the feelings are something I think most people on a spiritual journey have experienced through their journies. Thank you.
OMG it's so amazing to know that we are all going through life's ebb and flow in a similar way... The lack of understanding & support from the immediate environment makes it seem like because we were young & experiencing life, that makes us who we are! I regret nothing because I'm grateful for the lessons & I love myself then & now!!!
Wow. Beautiful conversation! I really appreciate it being with a women. Not sure if I’ve seen a one on one conversation of Russ with a woman before. It brought out different emotions and sides of Russ. Very vulnerable, authentic, and honest!
But I dropped a couple tears when y’all talked about self forgiveness. I appreciate this conversation. This was actually my first time listening. Good job B for picking it up and trying it AGAIN! Russ was an awesome guest!
Wow is all I can say! At the end of this I am feeling so filled with inspiration, peace, and joy! Knowing that it’s okay to love the person I was when I was at my lowest and learning to bring back that feeling of excitement. Don’t get me started on the feeling judged from the church lol. This is definitely one of the best episodes thus far! I would have not been mad if this was a 2 hour episode. I need a part 2 with Russ! Also, B. I wanted to say that you are a person that I have looked up to since 2019. You have helped me through so many dark times. I was one of the 30,000 that purchased your first book and I will purchase the second, third, and tenth book. That book was my first step into healing and I would not have as much peace as I do now without it. Keep being you and trying again ❤
NEEDED TO SEE THIS SO BADLY TODAY! I am a mentally ill millenial based in ATL so I truly look up to you both! I just got my mic in the mail, so I'm coming to join the conversation with my perspective! Thank you for sharing!
This was amazing ✨ I myself found Russ during 2016 & his music healedddd me. I love B sooo BIG. The conversation flowed so well and so happy to see this version of Russ ❤️🩹
I love russ forever, he was always my basis, my rock. I am so glad to see him in toronto concert, after he canceled the show in Europe, I am still here for you, always getting your back! ❤
It’s okay to cry B. You don’t need a reason to explain your emotions away. It’s your heart and the way you feel that makes you you. Never change that and embrace it bc it’s beautiful.
I didnt get into this episode this week knowing you guys were going to tap into grief! B. SIMONE, THIS WAS THAT EPISODE! I think as a society we never have really dealt with grief because we are taught to do everything but grieve. It has an effect on us and plays into our actions when we arent ready to handle it. The crazy part is, not understanding our triggers, especially the ones that channel the emotions of grief is not talked about enough! This was a healing conversation on so many levels.
I have to say…. That I was one of Those who were on the fence about B. But the more I learn to about myself and my relationship with God, and how much healing I actually need, the more I am able to give out grace,. I find that I align with her and i actually feel very much like her often! I too have been “muted” and it’s so hard because my voice and personality takes up a lot of space and I was made to feel bad about it! B please keep going. I was one who raised their brow because of rumors but I understand you and love your depth! I am inspired. May everything get better for you and may you get STRONGER
I agree 100% I’m not obsessed with Russ to be creepy but because I want to progress with myself and be the best person I can be and Russ is a huge inspiration for that
Russ definitely hit the nail on the head about the church. It’s very hard to grow a relationship with god when you have been scared into one. Really great episode!!!❤
In the depths of your eyes, I find my truth; in the echo of your voice, I hear life’s song. Your smile, a sweet dessert, nourishes my heart’s deepest longing. Your words, the sun’s rays, illuminate the path I walk. Your arms, my sanctuary, in your embrace, I find the deepest peace. Your soul, my greatest blessing, a light that guides me through the darkest night. Your distance, a teacher, in silence, I learn the lessons of the heart. 🌊 Russ I love you ❤
"Bracing for impact" yes!! I never thought of it that way. Tha k u for trying again, because everything in this episode us so relevant to me today! Stay in ur beautiful purpose ❤🎉🎉
What an amazing episode, two of my favorite personalities. You guys inspire the life and loving out of me. Thank you B. Simone for this beautiful podcast.
This was so good! Focus on relationship not religion. I’ve been feeling this way for so long. Love what you’re doing B. And super proud of your perseverance.
Honest post. Never been a fan of yours but anytime Russ does an interview, I have to watch. So im like lets see if i can get through this and damn...this was a great episode and you are pretty dope.
Great interview. Russ is official I love for what he stands for. You've both covered some impeccable information in regards to healing. The journey of healing is POWERFUL.❤❤
When it comes to church community I strongly believe that having a community is so important. Surrounding yourself with others who are on their Christian journey can be beautiful. Don’t allow what you’ve been through in the past isolate you from church community. Find the right community to rock with. Not every church is for everyone🥰
Love this!! And I read his book it hit me good lol!! All the thoughts all the feels!! Thank you B for having him and Russ thanks for showing up and sharing!!!
Thank you! I definitely needed to listen to this. Currently going through this all at the moment, especially starting my press on nails business & making a t shirt. I am always looking to grow myself. I absolutely love this
Perseverance is a must I’ve always said I am nothing if not persistent and that was what I found when I was all broken down to the very essence of who I was
This is probably one of my favorite episodes! What y’all think ??? - B
Nothing better than seeing you grow and be the best new interviewer in the game ?!?! This is definitely one of my favorite episodes
Why don’t “Christians” like B. Simone care about holiness. It’s true you can’t serve God and the world 😂
Best episode so far! He’s dope AF. ✨
bro this ep is soooo 🤌🏾🤌🏾BIG chef's kiss🩷 love the honesty and genuine connection between the two of you!
Cos you both were comfortable with the conversation you were in flow and understanding it from an equal perspective
“I wasn't comfortable being my authentic self because I haven't seen this archetype succeed.”
There will never be another Russ ppl don’t understand this man is a genius and inspires so many ppl and is true to himself and does it all himself
Russ pouring into you, just poured into me. “Stay the track, be yourself, your community will come.” That ripple effect is profound, I AM grateful ❤
He is so slept on. One of my favorite artists
Slept on with sold out shows.. lol
Agreeddddd
I've never heard of him
having a RUSS interview is LITERALLY ICONIC SIS. there will NVR be another RUSS..people really can’t comprehend the impact that man has had on the music industry. absolute GENIUS.
Who is he? I saw the short and wondered. This popped up and I clicked just to see but she didn't introduce him😊
Imagine feeling everything Russ said in the beginning without the fame … this conversation is so relevant ! He overcame his own ego
Omfg you got Russ ??!! I love it here 😭
Exactly my thought- had to tune straight tf in too 😅
Who is he?
@@yogaqueen1527a rapper/singer
Clip that line “people try to hold you hostage to your past “
This conversation is of generational importance. We’re all going through the same thing right now. More love and understanding ❤
I love Russ even more after this pod, this was such a healing episode in many forms. It felt like you both were healing through each other’s point of view
The way you feel about Russ is how I feel about you b!! I’ve been watching you since day one!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾💜
The frequency in this interview is amazing you guys are not trying hard you just talking about healing and growing and that's needed in this generation god bless you B for this episode it's gonna help a lot of people, it's not to be perfect and love yourself. Whoever is reading this I wish you all the love and healing to your journey don't stop now continue that's a treasure at the end❤
Oh I love Russ, I’m excited for this episode🩵
Same here❣️🤗

she spoke so perfectly about Russ for so many of us 😩🫶🏻

I’ve never heard of him before but now I’m curious to hear more from him. Thanks for exposing us to him.
Russ is so emotionally intelligent. He gives great advice & is an amazing story teller. Bravo B. simone 👏🏼
i really dont think you were out of control in interviews bro, give yourself grace, i loved the energy and it gave me hella confidence
This was good B. Keep going! I can’t wait to see you when you come to Chicago!
This was so good! Focus on relationship not religion. I’ve been feeling this way for so long. Love what you’re doing B. And super proud of your perseverance.
Why am I crying rn. So relatable.
Amazing episode ❤❤❤
That last question was poured into his song September 16. One of my faves. I can tell he really does wish he could re-navigate that moment in life! 🙏🏽
Honest post. Never been a fan of yours but anytime Russ does an interview, I have to watch. So im like lets see if i can get through this and damn...this was a great episode and you are pretty dope.

11:30 got me emotional for so many reasons. I wanna hug her but i also want that experience she had with russ. Manifesting this
I love the energy between you two!
Clapping 👏🏼 👏🏼 interesting topics especially close to the end of
When it comes to church community I strongly believe that having a community is so important. Surrounding yourself with others who are on their Christian journey can be beautiful. Don’t allow what you’ve been through in the past isolate you from church community. Find the right community to rock with. Not every church is for everyone🥰
Russ is such big friend material!!! And his laugh!!!!?????? Bless that man
Props to Russ. I love your growth and I love that you’re standing in your truth and authenticity 💯💐🔥 I can’t wait for some more new music #Getup&Getit

I knewwwwww this was gonna be great and I was right
“We’re vegan….” B Simone the only person that could get me to cry happy/sad tears all at the same time 🤣
This episode is soooo deep and I love it with me going through the same thing
This was awesome I don’t know who he is but the way he expressed himself and life experiences was very eye opening Ty B
This is one of my fav collaborations from you! So authentic! 🤍
