Really good interview. I've always known Ferris was intelligent and articulate but I was quite surprised by the level of internal analysis and genuine thoughtfulness. Aye, great job on this one pal.
I thoroughly enjoyed the interview with Paul and yourself James. I came from Zena Street in Barmulloch and went to St Philomena's school at the same time as Paul, then on to All Saint's school. I experienced some of what Paul talks about with certain brothers, so I can empathise with Paul in that respect. All the best.
Good interview. A guy who is obviously very interested his interviewee and give him the room to let his story flow and basically interview himself whilst just asking the right questions to keep the topic on point and keep a wee bit more coming
@@JamesEnglish chocking to watch the one with danniella westbrook as i no she had a bad time back in the day n the ching .as i say looking forward to it imagine with these pod casts poppin up awe over the place like mike tyson fox example youngest champ at 21 boxing needs mike involved hes a historian and cus d amato the bond. Pod casts are the dogs bollocks these days always a pleasure James.
Agree, there’s no ego or narcissism. It’s about the interviewee not him trying to be clever. He’s a great listener, he behaves like a counsellor to the point it makes me think he’s studied counselling skill classes because he uses all active listening techniques counselors use - paraphrases, reflects, clarifies, summarises, sharing, positive encouragers etc. He’s a natural. Very professional - f words aside 🙂.
Fantastic Interview, I discovered James English a few months ago and have watched nearly all of the Interviews, this is up there with the best - keep them coming
Thank you James, your effort is much appreciated. A compelling interview with so many areas covered. Paul Ferris, what a life, it's fascinating to listen to him.
Another top notch interview James. You're going from strength to strength. Have been waiting on this one for a while. Remember buying Paul's book the week it come out and sat and read the whole lot in one day. Well done boys, 10 out of 10.
You know what i love about all these interviews is a, James doesn't interupt, also never ever judge a book by it's cover. Listen to how well spoken and softly spoken he is. These real OG's you would bump into them in the street, make a mistake and end up getting pensioned off.
What an inspiring, well spoken , well educated guy. I’m all for about being in the present and not the past as everyone can change, however every character needs “shaping” through their childhood, adolescent years, teens and throughout life. James you present well mate, always asking very smart and open questions whilst making your guests feel at ease. Love this podcast, came across by chance and hooked now!!!
Probs because back in 2000, the podcast scene was practically non-existent. The term "podcast" itself hadn't even been coined yet lol I read Vendetta as well. Great book. Theres another Glasgow gy who wrote great true crime books, the names on the tip of my tongue. Grrr. Is it McKay? Somebody McKay? Canny mind, man.
Thank you to Paul Ferris and James English for this fascinating long interview. I'm a big fan of James English's podcasts and interviews, great style. Paul Ferris looks like a really decent bloke you would like to have a pint with down the pub. It's hard to picture him in his previous life doing violent crimes. I bet he can tell some really great stories. There's enough material here for a sequel to his autobiographical film Wee Man which only scratches the surface of his life really and gives an overview. Any plans for a second film I wonder? My own life has parallels to Paul's. Like him I was bullied a lot at school. My Grandfather was my father figure and role model growing up ex-army Corporal and no-nonsense hard man. He showed me how to stand up for myself and encouraged me to learn how to fight and stand up to bullies. I studied martial arts, Karate and Kung-Fu and became fearless. Eventually I gained a reputation for being a local hooligan and trouble-maker. I was involved with gangs, getting in trouble at school skipping classes and had zero fear of or respect for authority. When you give in to that dark side it can lead you to some very dark places. I remember my first time in the nick sitting in a cell before Court and thinking this isn't the life for me it was a wake up call. I turned my life around though by my 30's and then went to university later in life and so avoided going into a life of crime. I chose the opposite path and worked in the legal profession which gave me an appreciation of the legal system and how working within the law instead of against it can be very empowering and rewarding. I'm semi-retired now and glad I chose the path I did instead of crime, which rarely pays or comes to any good for you or anyone around you. Paul Ferris is one the exceptions for someone with his high-profile and criminal background. Much respect to him to turning his life around and bringing his son up the right way.
Loved that interview, Paul`s life experiences and life lessons (although extreme) can be applied to the most micro aspects of a great many of us I'm sure, its incredibly difficult to turn the mirror on yourself sometimes but Paul does it without being preachy or smug. Great stuff.
Inspirational! taking self analysis to new heights. Paul's a valuable role model in this troubled society of ours and a reminder that the road to redemption is broad and wide. This podcast just get's better by the week, excellent work!
Great podcast James, I have a lot of respect for Paul Ferris ,he is a very educated man ,and projects himself very well,and fair play to him ,he should be a psychologist ,he could redirect the thoughts and attitudes of our current youth ,based upon his own learned experiences ,I grew up up in the same environment as he did and chose a different path ,but what an ambassador this man is ,good on you 👍👍👍
The wee man... great interview from both . One of the most intelligent underworld figures in recent history. Well hes alive and rich so that says it all .
Between yourself and Shaun Attwood you have both really mastered how to produce amazing podcasts and let people tell their stories. Hats off to you both. Huge respect.
Attwoods interviews not my cuppa tea like.. ruins it with all the explanations for the American audiences just fucks the interview right up.. james just let's the guy he's interviewring talk simple as that ... 👌
Absolute class interview James 🍿 Why did it me so long to watch this.. Wasn't disappointed and wow how you've grown through your journey in the podcast world 👏🏻💜
Highly insightful conversation with a guy who has always fascinated me. I'm particularly interested in his attitude to the things that have gone before. I know for sure that I wouldn't last a second in prison or indeed in the "underworld" for want of a better term. However Mr Ferris' calm demeanor in describing all of this is as fascinating as it is unnerving. Great production. Much respect.
Fascinating interview. Paul Ferris shows impeccable social skills here. Brilliant. Would love to chat to him for hours over dinner. James English is a great interviewer and just let it flow. Yes, good will to both of you for your futures. Cyril.
This was well worth waiting for James this channel goes from strength to strength and well deserved mate i could listen to Paul All Day he has so many life experiences to share and is always open about his life i really look forward to the next podcast Top Man
Another amazing interview James. These interviews let people see into the other world so please keep them going. These guys were legends. Theres more to Paul than meets the eye. Hes an intelligent guy.
Yeah this is the first I've heard of this guy. I was looking for a good podcast to listen to while working. He has had an eventful life and a great story teller. Also liked the part about the 12 week rule of thumb for goal/habit setting. Something we can all consider.
Rebel Mixes Honest in that he came out and told his story or honest in that he always kept his mouth shut and done his time with no complaints . Either way he’s a very honest and honourable man in my opinion .
Enjoyed this interview very much,Looking forward to all the audio tapes on bent cops being released. Paul you are a great story teller,in your case a true story.Thanks for sharing.
I met ferris a a few years ago, about the time his film was being made. He spoke in a soft manner and was very polite. He never acted hard or moved about as to say "Im a Gangster" If you did not know his history you would never know what he once was, unless you looked into eyes, they told a story of their own. He was severely bullied as a child which explains how he became so relentless. Their was nothing false about him I respected him for that.
Great interview, thanks for the upload. Enjoying your Channel mate. Would be great if you get an interview with Geoff Thompson from Coventry ..very hard bloke but intelligent and has a great story to tell!
Fake as fuck laugh what he can switch off at the click of his fingers.. if I'm laughing I can't stop that fast.. and if I made somebody laugh and they stopped in a breath I'd think what a weirdo..
First time I've watched this channel and that was Top Class! The depth that Ferris goes into for 2 hours about his life, straight talking truths was quality! Be keeping check to see what other guests you get
No problem, with the amount of bullshit on social media and the press it’s refreshing to get interviews from guys that tell it like it is. Especially the brad welsh one too! Don’t know who else you’ve got in mind to interview but to get these guys talking to you the way they do - you’ve got something mate, all the best 👍
that line "toast and beans became my dad" nearly had me in tears, People play Paul off as this wild animal, he is just a product of his environment If its everyman for themselves, then you need to win
Yeah Andrew, this is a controled nihilistic dog eat dog paradigm we live in with a hierarchical structure.Some ppl won't lie down and be manipulated by the psychological fuckery that is apparent.
@@adriantroy9294a few fancy words there 😂 but makes you wonder, like the bullying over time lit a fire in paul that he might not have ever been able to get access to without the torment.

Absolutely fantastic interview James..Read all of Paul's books and alway's been interested in the whole Arthur Thompson thing with Paul growing up...Very intelligent likeable man..Again a pleasure to watch!!
Always funny how these gangsters and enforcers hate bullies, but will have no doubt bullied numerous people and taken advantage of them to run a successful crime gang
I have watched other's doing these podcasts and for me they're not so good...your's are very laid back and professional. Really enjoyed this one...paul is a very clevee man. Thanks again.
yes.... iv been waiting for this for a long time iv watch ever interview Paul has done and read all the books seen the move. looking forward to watching this tonight ☺👌 major respect for this man.
I watched last week 1st time, brilliant you say, you can't fast forward a Fact that happened when Ferris was a Baby yes an infant be lucky if he was 3, in the movie he was full grown Thompson & his M-I-L were blown up in the mid 60's not the late 80's
He could have done anything? He has mate. He may have had a bumpy start, but he realised that his life of crime wasn’t sustainable, and he went on to do well. Book deals, films, other successful business ventures. He landed on his feet, for sure. I think I know what you mean, though. Do you mean he could have led a more legitimate path from the start?
Well done James'y love the new intro this was a very different ferris interview! Everyone else just wants to hear about the shootings and this that n the next! This was a very much more grown interview, well done James!! ✌🏼️💯
Remarkable man, his way with words are hypnotising, he's been through the mill and came out a better person, good luck to the guy, I respect survivors.
Great podcast..... Paul was a product of his enviroment..... he adapted to his surroundings like so many people in citys all over Britain. Love or hate him.... I know a few people from Blackhill who are around the same age and grew up around him.... he was a nice guy who had enough of taking shit off people.... he has paid his debt to society.
Paul a love your film watched it many many times. Pure heart felt. If somebody asked me what a good criminal was. A would say you. Millions of respect X
Really good interview. I've always known Ferris was intelligent and articulate but I was quite surprised by the level of internal analysis and genuine thoughtfulness. Aye, great job on this one pal.
Great interview James. Paul Ferris is a very interesting and intelligent man. I could listen to him all day.
The god father has spoken no1
I thoroughly enjoyed the interview with Paul and yourself James.
I came from Zena Street in Barmulloch and went to St Philomena's school at the same time as Paul, then on to All Saint's school.

This is one fine interview, very honest man Paul, his knowledge about bullying as a boy is genuine and very honest. Brilliant.
He’s a strong character, but I wouldn’t say honest 😂
Anti Bullying activist - total respect. Great conversation. Clever man.
Great interview. I like James podcasts, he let's guests tell their story. Wee man was a really good film, definitely worth a watch.

But I bet none of the people he was taking advantage of were criminals
Seen him bulling in JAIL ask him about the riot in Shotts
Exactly you don’t get to run a crime gang or climb the ranks by being Mary poppins. They are all bullies who prayed on the vulnerable at some point.
Weren’t criminals I meant to say

We are all products of our environment. Very interesting interview!
An articulate and intelligent man with a deep understanding of the human condition , under different circumstances he could have done anything.
He could have done anything? He has mate. He may have had a bumpy start, but he realised that his life of crime wasn’t sustainable, and he went on to do well. Book deals, films, other successful business ventures. He landed on his feet, for sure. I think I know what you mean, though. Do you mean he could have led a more legitimate path from the start?
Brilliant interview. Much admiration and respect for Paul Ferris.

Stick to crime son, politics is to dirty 😂
So go on what did he say?
Idiot
Clever answer Tom Swan, cant knock that!!
But at the end of the day / were wer Paul's "EDUMACATED?"

Remarkable man, his way with words are hypnotising, he's been through the mill and came out a better person, good luck to the guy, I respect survivors.
What an interview. Amazing stories and excellently excuted interview.
Brilliant interview, PF is a very intelligent man.
Stuart McIntosh thanks Stuart
Great podcast..... Paul was a product of his enviroment..... he adapted to his surroundings like so many people in citys all over Britain. Love or hate him.... I know a few people from Blackhill who are around the same age and grew up around him.... he was a nice guy who had enough of taking shit off people.... he has paid his debt to society.
I have to say i love this interview
Paul a love your film watched it many many times. Pure heart felt. If somebody asked me what a good criminal was. A would say you. Millions of respect X
