Ehhh 💯
Didn't even know about a pt 2, let's glo
Lol tell me again why he did this interview with his shirt off?
Why don't you look at JD paperwork smh this is sick you make a video on a guy talking about paperwork when his own paperwork is all bad
@@garytheretaaraaaaaaard.9173 I don't think he has shirts
I can absolutely relate to this man. I had a perfect childhood with perfect parents but yet I still fell into a deep hole with opiates. Fortunately I have been clean for 6 years now
Glad to hear! JD is the man.
Keep goin brother. ❤️
Congrats brother. Keep up the good work
People look at criminals and whatnot and say “where were the parents at?” And honestly that’s unfair to parents. Free will exists. People can choose to go against their upbringing; and often do. In real life, some of the worst criminals came from strict, loving and religious households. They fell in love with money and power on their own.
Ayo, big fax I was the perfect kid with the perfect life with a perfect mom with a perfect dad with the perfect house with a perfect yard and I mean fuck dude I ended up being a goddamn alcoholic shit affects everyone
thats crazy i was on heroin from the time i was 16 til i was 22 when my daughter was born, then i got on methadone i have been on it for 4 years and im tapering from 65mg and now im at 1mg and i got 1 week til im out completely its amazing seeing people actually doing something to help people with addiction
Great work man… that’s the worst of the worst as far as drugs and getting off it. Methadone is a terrible thing to get off of also. I had been taking it recreationally for like 8!yrs. Around 10-30 mg Dailey. Then had to stop cold Turkey. It was a literal hell physically and mentally for at least a month. I couldn’t sleep a full 8 hrs longer than that. The leg pains were torture.
But congrats though. Then to do it for your coming child shows great character. Not many care enough to do it. I hope you kid really appreciates how much you care.
Keep pushing my brother. I'm on the same path. I know nothing but dope and prison. Trying to get a podcast started for us. Trying to get my point across on Ian bicks show
keep it up man
You can do it! It’s horrible but you can do it! Look into the naloxone taper as you stop the methadone. It’s blocks the receptors and blocks the discomfort as your in withdrawal
This guy is still proud of his violence. He claims to be in recovery but his ego is still running his life.
As much as I like him you are definitely right. You can tell he loves telling everyone what he's done. He still wants to be looked at as "hard". Whether he knows it consciously or subconsciously... that's the way it comes out at least. Having said that, I like the dude. He's good money to me.
"I don't want to wake up and the first thing i think about is getting high. I don't want to be a slave to that." TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN! Chasing that dragon everyday is so tiring. Having to mold everything that you do around drugs was the only thing I could think about. Im now over 4years sober. Im lucky that part of my life wasnt my destination, it was just part of my journey. Im worth my sobriety, you're worth your sobriety. Now, as a team, let's show everyone they are worth it too. Much love ❤️
Keep it up
A lot of the time you don’t get to sleep you’re up all night trying to think of how you’re going to get high. You really are a slave to it. It’s fun the first couple months until you start feeling a need for it then it’s like air you need it or you feel like you’re going to die it’s all you can think about
I’m there now literally gotta have some soon I wake or ima b sick within a hour or so everyday is a scheme some kinda hustle im trying get much I can for the least amount of money I wanna get clean I really do I’m so tired of this BS
@superdad4580 I understand, man. You have to accept that you are the problem, but you're also the answer. Reach out to sponsor, meeting, or facility. I see that you're a Dad, and I would imagine you want to be a good one. You owe it to yourself to give yourself a chance to be one. We don't get sober alone, we don't stay sober alone. Reach out to your inner circle of recovery
@@Ivanwithcali get on suboxone if you can, at least you can be productive on that, then you can think about reducing and coming off.
Let me know what you think of this interview and who you think I should interview next!

Johnny Mitchell ex drug cartel drug trafficker
This dude doesn't know his drugs, surprisingly.
Ritalin and Adderall are not at all alike, at Ritalin isn't chemically anything like methamphetamine.
Adderall (amphetamine) is a methyl ring away from methamphetamine. But they're still very different despite both being Amphetamine variants.
Ritalin/Focalin is methylphenidate. Which isn't at all an amphetamine. It's actually way closer chemically to cocaine. Injecting methylphenidate is very similar in feeling to injecting cocaine.
Cocaine and amphetamines are way different and do very different things. Methamphetamine is way more damaging to the brain and body than a drug like Adderall.
This dude has mental ailments and went on to self medicate with meth, like many addicts. Blaming it on childhood medicine is a cop out. You didn't know how to cope with past trauma so you escaped with meth.
And I'm someone who was molested as a kid, didn't do drugs and got a taste of how opioids emotionally numb you after being prescribed them. Then I went onto heroin until I got clean after learning to address my trauma.
@@JohnDoe-cz9gy while most of what you say is on point you lost it at the end. You can't just say blaming his drug use on being prescribed Ritalin as a kid is a "cop out".
For one, you have absolutely no idea how his brain processed that info and what connections were made from it.
I try not to give my kids medicine unless absolutely needed because I don't want them associating taking something to make them feel better. It makes absolute sense.
I'm not saying it is an absolute cause but it is certainly a possibility. Your extremely limited anecdotal evidence apllies to no one else.
Omg I am so sorry about your son. My husband was murdered and we lost our daughter 3 years before that happened 😢 You should honestly write an autobiography. Your story should be heard by the masses!
I think you should write one (or get a ghost writer) as well!
My GOD be w/ you

@@robertbthomson1 right
Rip.. I wish you the best
I love when career criminals get on their moral soapbox about other types of crime.
There are definitely crimes that are worse than other crimes?
Idk how i found JD's channel but im glad i did. He's a great entertainer and a great person. Much love to him, hes doing great things and depsite his past he 100% deserves his success
Jd is amazing
@@ianbickCTwhere can i find the video of your story?
JD is very cool. Glad he turned his life around.
Well he's overcoming a mostly imaginary past so ......🤦 he did less than 3 years for a violation of the probation for the counterfeiting and snitched on his codefendants. He wasn't a shot caller. He isn't even a gang member. He's a con man. He got those tattoos in the last few years for the Internet. He has one small one on his side neck in his mugshot from 2019. Oh yeah. All this just happened. He wasn't a crook like 20 years ago and turned it around. Dude he just got out! Lol. He's a con man running game. He's a wish version of Andrew Tate.
Depsite 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😆
He turned himself into a role model. I bet a lot of people watch him to get through hard times
Tbh I think there's only 2 types of role models: the ones who have lived what they say since day one and those who've been on the wrong side of everything and flip that on its head
I'm 9 years in recovery and when shit gets hard, I always pull up JD and it helps so damn much.
Literally what I’m doing right now
@@motherofhounds3837 Yeah. His Positive energy really helps you get motivated to do the right thing
The wild part is that most addicts started on Ritalin/Adderal.. It showed me I could get instant gratification from a pill! I got an injury in high school and was prescribed opiates.. It took me 13 years to get out of that hole! There was a group of 8-9 of us that abused opiates in high school and I’m the only one still alive… After my last friend died I detoxed in the Psych Ward and haven’t touched a thing since! July will be 4 years! I don’t like many people but I’d love to go for wings with either of you guys!
Congrats, brother. I dont even know you and I'm proud of you.
Huge congratulations. Im sorry to hear about the loss along the way but your success is something to be proud of. Thank you for the motivation amigo.
An inspiration to us all brother, keep strong and live proud of your accomplishments thus far
It’s July now.
You’ve had 4 years.
Now you just gotta aim for 40.
Then 400.
Then 4000.
I was given basically unlimited unsupervised adderal when I was younger and it fucked my reward and motiviation system in my head. Been better lately tho, it just takes work
Ian you are an amazing interviewer. The way you allow your guest to speak and not interrupt with stories or details about you or your past. You show so much respect and empathy towards each guest and I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. You should be really proud!
J.D.s interview has by far been the most interesting to me. I think its because when he speaks you know its the truth. He's not glorifying his past or bragging about the things he did or was forced to do. His accountability and self-awareness is so evident in the way he conducts himself. I have so much respect for him and Ian. Thank you both for such an honest and open interview. It was very inspiring and uplifting!
I cried when I quit. It was like I lost a loved one. I wasn't sad that I wasn't getting high it was just like someone I loved died. Thank God I've been clean 6 years now
Hi Hugh. Not a habitual user (I'm sure you've heard that before) is there anything you'd say to yourself back in the day? What would've cut through to you?
I'm going on 34 now. Gone through the self help gauntlet.
If you have the time and patience for a specific "hypothetical".....
Ballpark advice for a person on the precipice of deciding "straight and narrow" vs "by any means necessary. What would've worked for you and your life. What doesn't work ever? What doesn't work, sometimes?
A million thanks.
@@TheJoshestWhite people say addiction is a disease. I say it's the symptom of a disease. Everyone has a different life and a different solution. I was a heavy iv user and and alcoholic for 20 years. The only thing that worked for me is just not do it again. I know it sounds ridiculous but that's the only thing that worked for me. Good luck bro. Find your solution and go at it head on! You got this brother!
I cried every time I used.
Well I shivered in cold sweats, felt like my skin was peeling, shit my brains out, body in searing pain, no sleep, and insane mental anguish and anxiety to the point where I wish I would just die to end the pain on the floor of a jail cell for two weeks.. then went to a rehab and stayed in detox for nearly a month..
I know the feeling brother. I battling it now.
Man, his comment about the first time he did meth is so relatable to me. My drug of choice was opiates, but I'll never forget the first time I did it. It really was like a switch went off in my head. Addiction is awful, and so hard to understand if you've never been through it, but it's still somewhat comforting hearing another addict talk about it.
Same. I'll never forget the first time I took Vicodin which turned into oxycontin which turned into fentynyl. I'll have 7 years clean in October.
Yea I danced with Opiates several years first oxy, then morphine, heroin wasn't around here except when someone, like me would make a run to bigger cities. But, I'm still riding the methadone train yrs. Later. So if mess up and go in, even for a small amount of time, 1 week and I'll be doubled in the corner. God forbid I hadda go to prison. I guess by the time I got there I'd be detoxed or dead. It could easily kill me.140 mgs a day 15 yrs 7 yrs on dope before hand.
But luck to anyone staying off the shit. Especially now with fentonyl around.
@dirtyworks13 they give out suboxone and methadone in jails and prisons as long as you had a valid script when you get locked up. I'm on suboxone. I'd never want to be on methadone. That shit gets into your bones.
Amen to this comment. Couldn’t have said it better. 🙏
Meth is a totally different animal! IDGAF what anyone says. It is EASILY the worst drug i ever sold and I'll admit tried. That first hit turned into 4-5 days. After that, i never touched it again either using or selling. Absolutely the worst drug in my opinion.
My husband says the same thing about ADHD. He was on Ritalin as a kid. He abused it and then naturally moved on to methamphetamine. Years of addiction and recovery later, it's something I see with a lot of meth addicts.
I live in one of the worst methtowns, Stockton CA, and I've noticed that alot too..
Exact same thing with me. I almost thought I was the only one
That's why they have very different ADHD meds that don't gateway people.
@@TurquoiseInk Yes they do! Unfortunately a large number of addicts are genetically predisposed to substance use. If you want to get high, you are going to get high. Meds or not.
You two have great chemistry. You asking the right questions and JD is a gifted story teller with great energy. Great combination.
I am also a victim of CSA by more than one perpetrator. It not only changed my life, but it changed every relationship I've ever had. In my early 40s, I finally came to terms with it and was able to tell my mom, and even then, I wasn't able to go into graphic details. It took 30+ yrs to start processing the first SA, and then I worked through the others. For many years, I blamed me for doing something that made these men SA me. 3 of the men were members of my parents' church and were given permission to take me to church events only to be taken elsewhere and SA'd. These events totally changed everything for me. DRUGS, ARRESTS, DIVORCES, NOT BEING THE BEST MOM, BEING THE VICTIM OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. This man speaks the truth of how one act of violence can change everything for you. MLH&R to him.
I hope you find the peace you deserve, much love Sister.
@@EnderPearlRsThank you. ❤
@@JJShaw1210how about some personal accountability in your life
This is the one !!! You’re the man JD
@JD Delay, I have been fortunate enough in my life to not have those demons nor have I had to go inside. But for some reason, the realness you put out in the world has resonated with me. Keep doing the amazing job in your community. As a dad, I can't imagine what it must have felt like to lose a child in that fashion( or any fashion for that matter) so my condolences for that bro. Keep on keepin on man
This new generation has no loyalty.
Man I was just waiting on you to go down on this guy.
Holy hell.... Losing his child like that. I was shocked hearing that. I'm glad he manned up and didn't go back to using after that happening. Hearing him speak really gives me hope that us addicts can become something. It's hard knowing nothing else other than numbing yourself to deal with life. He really is a glimpse into a future of putting in the work. I hope I can be like that one day...
Your not alone brother. Its about putting in the work. Im a few months sober from opiates (still smoke dabs) but im at the point where im the last man standing in my group of "drug friends". Almost 50 lives that meant something to me wether acquaintance, friend, or day 1 homie, unnecessarily cut short by addiction or life on the streets. Im only 42 and its been a crazy ride, but i insist let me off right here. I hope you all get off the crazy train too. Its destination is DOOM.
Like the other brother said, ur not alone. Suboxone is a miracle medication when ur hooked on opioids and have stuff going on and can’t take the time to go through detox n all that. It’s better to get on suboxone to ween off the opioids. Takes longer of course but life is so much easier with suboxone. Not methadone!
@Steven Stevens absolutely! Suboxone saved my fucking life! Been on them 4 years and haven't used a opioid ( heroin ) the entire time. Well the first few months I tried getting high but it was blocked. But yeah subs are

Anyone fighting addiction it's not really a cause related to me but I wish you luck.
Thanks for speaking up for male childhood abuse victims.
Love this dude. His channel is legit one of the best interviews I've heard.
JD is one of my favorite guys. I interact with addicts and criminals every day. When they come up to me and say they want to change, I always refer JD to them. I think they can change and learn from someone who has gone through familiar situations.
You are amazing at interviewing people. You give them a chance to speak, yet you guide them and stay on topic. Great interview!
Thank you so much!
I was really young when I was molested, my mom got me addicted to control me... I've got so much love and respect for him surviving all this and becoming who he is today.
I lost 6 years of my gof damn childhood to that prescription drug, smh.
@M R im sorry man I hope ypur life is on a healing path
This interview is so well done. Ian you are very good at asking questions that keep the interview flowing, while transitioning from subject to subject, and JD has a magnetic energy, and a knack for telling stories that are entertaining, and easy to follow, without being stale or boring.
His first day in prision and immediately see someone bleed out and he thinks it was "Exciting " .
My wife was abused by her brother, when she was way younger. And her family is highly religious. When it came to light what she had went thru, they basically told her to suck it up and swept it under the rug. I've tried putting hands on him, but he stood behind his mommy, and we stopped talking to her family for a while
I've been in a similar position with a past women I was with 8yrs that had been touched by her uncle. Everytime I tried too put hands on him something would prevent. The 1 time I actually was successful I was arrested and nothing ever happened too him legally for what he had done for several year's to her when she was a child. Sex offenders have it so easy these day's it's sad hiw easy they actually have it. Even in most lockup situations they have ways of protecting these horrible people unless you come across certian guards that make it possible for you too reach them, but that doesn't happen as often as it should.
JD congratulations on your soberity. I'm also been on the wagon since 2010. I even done this living with a friend that drank every day. But the third year into my soberity he died from Sepsis, but two months before I father passed away but as of today I'm 13 plus dry and lucky to be alive. I did this through will power and the grace of God. And to the host of this channel, great interview.
That's awesome. Follow Russel Brand at all?
Congrats brother
@@TheJoshestWhite No, I don't.
🙌👑✝️🙏 congrats on your sobriety and testimony, may you help pull many others out of the same.
Born and raised in Portland! Ran all around this state and have been through all the local haunts. Never seen this dude.
He’s a informant. Snake river isn’t a gladiator school, it’s soft as fuck. He got raped as a kid and said he was taking them all out when he got to prison and they walk main line and he didn’t do anything but make them pay. Come on bro this dude so full of shit his eyes are brown
😂😂😂
I keep trying to put into words how incredible this interview was! 🔥 content Ian!
Thanks so much! We appreciate you watching.
2:00 I'm a 42 yr old male (former marine) married w-kids who also was molested by a man when I was a young child. This DEFINITELY affects many aspects of your life, all I did as a teenager into young adulthood was fight & fu$k, as much as possible trying to subconsciously "prove" to myself that I was a "man". Major trust issues w family & people in general. Just know if this is you, your not alone & as men we don't allow something like this done to us as child to define us! Once I became aware of this & sought help to work through it, my life drastically changed & I haven't looked back. It takes some work, & some painful conversations maybe but please seek help don't waste many yrs of your life like I did in bars & at a diff woman's house every other day that life gets old real quick. And there's so much more to life to enjoy.
CORRECTION you are a PRIOR SERVICE MARINE!!! Difference between US and THEM is we EARN THE TITLE regardless of how we felt about our time we earned it ALL!!! What happened to us as children we couldn't help but allowing that to dictate what that does to us in our present lives is something we can not do. When my mom's brother passed away, we were at the VA and I leaned over to him one vet to another and told him I'll never forgive him for his actions to each and everyone of us.
I'm just an average civilian hippie, but I had a rough up bringing that made me numb to the world around me. I'm constantly seeing drugs destroy people, but some of the nicest people I've met have been recovered addicts. I relate to honesty. Also I believe in the golden rule. Do on to others what you would do on to yourself. Great video, and I am happy to see some humanity in this fucked up world.
🤡🤡🤡
Love this man. JD is always a great interview.
I’m glad I stumbled on this video. Great story and a great message. Thanks guys
Glad you enjoyed!
This is very well said JD. A lot of people don’t understand addiction. You will do whatever to feed that habit. Your definitely one of my favorite creators
What a truly inspiring watch/listen. I am having some hard times myself and this has given me inspiration, tears and smiles in equal measure. Thank you both
I LOVE listening to people that have found their purpose in life after living and learning some wicked crazy things. Trauma can either break you or shape you.
I've been watching podcast for like the last two weeks strait. I can't get enough of this shit. As soon as I did a line of meth I was hooked and it really fucked up my life. Being 40 now and indigent I look forward to a day that I won't hear the call of drugs and alcohol. Thank you for the upload, it gives me strength to continue with my life. Ben Hill co springs co

@@ianbickCT Hi Ian would you be receptive to an interview?
Let me out it this way, I ask questions that people who aren't felons (yet at least) would like to know answers to. You answer.
If you'd like me to create a channel for such content. No big deal. Otherwise you can post the content yourself.
I have no web presence, I'm not a clout chaser or a follow,ers chaser.
I simply love good stories and try to assist REAL journalism.
Great interview Ian and JD! This one was a real EYE OPENER!
How does someone “own a nightclub” at 19? You can’t even get in a club!
I totally feel this interview I'm a 43 yr old that just got out in August form my 2nd bid and god has blessed me with 2nd chance and not gonna blow it inspired by this ty guys
Great collaboration right here. Keep grinding.
Thank you🔒🙏
This is one of my favorite podcasts I've ever seen. I'm a big fan of JD Delay and love his energy and wit and now I'm going to check out Ian Bick by subbing.
It's just so freaking awesome to have the strength to tell the horrific stories of unbelievable past lives this man had. I relate to this man, finding myself in the joint for years. Longest amount of time was 5 straight and 2 bits that were 2 years a piece. All of because of drugs, not only drugs but messing with the soft. That stuff ended up to be my mom, my dad,my sister and my everything. What sat me the f down was my mom passing away in a house fire in county and not to mention being on the phone with my dad in county while it was going on. Wish I could go back to that young kid and sit him down or strap him down and dopesick it out. You all inspire me into making a social media platform and talk it out.
Love JD! Been quietly following him for a while. I couldn’t be more proud of him for finishing his house arrest while building his business and continuing to flourish. That’s just straight amazing and incredibly inspirational
Long time youtube watcher, first time seeing this channel. recently came across JD and his youtube just today, and found this interview. Absolutely LOVE the questions that are asked, very detailed and curious questions. Alot of interviewers ask a super general question and move on. These questions arent like that and i love it. Great job and cant wait to watch more content!
Thank you so much🙏 we appreciate the support
Damn Ian I’m new to your channel & super impressed on how you place the questions perfectly in the conversation to keep it flowing so smoothly. This was a great interview thank you!
Yessssss!!!!!!!! Ian, you are CLEVER! Rare
Thats so ironic, he was mentioning CO's telling what chomos are in for, and then Shawshank, bc my uncle actually did time at the old Mansfield penitentiary where that was filmed and he said then (late 60's-70's) that guards would come in and announce it, like 'baby raper coming into B13' as loud as he could.
JD's story is very moving. Ups and downs, horror and happiness. I'm so glad he is here and doing what he is doing now. He is making a massive difference. Love you brother.
In your opinion is girth more important than length??
Brother, your interviewing style is incredible, I don’t know if it’s just super clever editing but you don’t interrupt! There is such a feeling of grace and respect for whomever your interviewing, I can tell you’re a good person. Keep doing this brother!
Thank you man! Trying to stand out in a world filled with podcasts! We appreciate you taking the time to watch and support.
this guy got me deep in the heart, and i'm hoping and pulling for him more than anybody i seen on a computer screen since i started on my computer in 2016. I know he's going to stay right and go far as he wants to. God be with him, I've never said that about any one yet! GOD PLEASE STAY WITH THIS GUY!!!
Thank you both, for sharing this inspirational interview. 🌟
JD is a living legend bro glad to see u change your life for good God bless you man 🙏
JD is one of the best dudes I've ever met, period. I been all over the world touring in metal bands and met a lot of people but JD one of the best for real.
My Brother!!! Love you my dude!!! We gotta get together soon! Miss seeing ya at check ins 😂
Dude, what bands
What an awesome testimony! Keep up the hard work. It makes a huge impact in our world.
I had a friend who was more like a cousin who had also just finished barber school and last January he snorted 2 pills that were laced with fentanyl and passed that night on his grandmas couch REST IN PIECE JUJU a great spirit. I’m checking into rehab this week and this man’s story has helped me relieve myself of a lot of grief/doubts and regrets that I’ve had throughout my life. I’m ready for another chance even tho we’re not there yet I believe big changes are coming. Just keep moving forward people 💙
You make it to rehab
Prayers from Mississippi, you got this
"I don't believe it's possible to snitch on a sex offender. But you'd better not snitch on, say, someone who sucker punches and kills an 80 year old woman during a robbery. That's going out bad." Amazing how their self-serving "criminal code" somehow makes them the noble Robin Hood figure while conveniently helping them get away with crimes.
You don't snitch on somebody who sucker punches and kills an 80 year old woman, you handle them yourself.
That's right bro. Fuck criminal code. This dudes a joke. No way you'd become a shot caller when you first arrive at snake and you only got a 36 month bit with no violence on your paperwork. I was there for 8 years and I can tell you this story is bullshit. Seems like a lot of people are buying it though. Thinks he's a prison god and only has 36 under his belt. Yawn
@@reddillon8425And then end up in a cage.
Wow right around the 3:30 mark I started to tear up. Reason being, while I wasn’t molested I struggled w/ addiction for over a decade. Luckily I’m sober now & have been for 7 years but the line you say about taking a pill to feel normal or be like other kids I’ve said myself many times. Word for word it’s how I explain the early part of my story. Thank you for having the courage to share & overcome, such an inspiration to so many.
Thank YOU for having the courage to share your story, too! And, please give yourself the hard earned credit you deserve for your sobriety. Obviously, I don't know your story, but I have to imagine that luck isn't completely what made the difference in your sobriety. You've gotten through some really, really tough shit in your life and you're stronger for it! I know that some times this can come across condescending, but please trust me when I say this, I mean it: I'm proud of you, and you should be, too!!!🎉

Great video! Your questioning is excellent and JD is so entertaining to watch, he's larger than life I'm happy for you both. Much ❤
It is crazy to hear how different your experiences were. This is why I love your work. I also really enjoyed hearing JD talk about his moral code, that kind of discussion is needed to help break the stigma about people who have broken the law.
Thank you very much. I think we nailed it on this one!
@@ianbickCT you did Ian, this was a great interview. I watch both channels. Not sure how i missed this one.
Hats off to both of you guys!!!! I can totally relate to alot of what JD was talking about. I was a menace in the town I lived in. Got caught up in the dope game became an addict myself. Was in an out of jail all a bunch of bullshit charges. Thankfully never a drug charge but please believe I gave both the city an county a run for their money. Finally decided to change my life. Stood in front of the criminal court judge admitted my drug use. I asked to stay in jail to flatten my time. My lawyer almost fell out when I spoke to the judge. I finished my time an came out a different woman. I packed my bags moved 1000 miles away and have continued to do good. Like JD said I'm praying the good I do will somehow balance my past actions.
Good on you. I wish you well.
Great interview I’m in tears right now
This a wonderful interview thank you for this !! I wish yiu biyh major success
Been waiting for this one 🔥
This guy is amazing, especially if you live like that. Such an inspiration. He gives me hope.
I don’t think Delay knows how based he is
GOD! i love this dude. everything he said about the neuro chemistry switching to where you think you need that substance to survive- that was what made it so damn hard for me to quit fentanyl.
3.5 years sober, no program- but we still at it.

One love 🕊 fly high A
Yo! Who’s this? I already know I love you! 🖤🤘🏻
JD talks about growing up in a normsal loving family but gets molested at a young age and not able to process it, starts to act out and that life leads him to crime. Made me really think about how many people I know who are from nromal loving families who take drugs and live a life of an addict. Like what demons are they also fighting.
I can tell you from what I see from me and all my friends who were deep into drugs a lot of it had to do with untreated underlying mental illness.
It progresses from there
Like ADHD. Its a disorder that doesn't seem very serious. But it is. It means your brain cannot produce enough dopamine to execute daily functions on a consistent basis.
So in order to get that dopamine you get into drugs because nothing you can get legally works. Marijuana to escape the Adderall comedowns and depression from Adderall ,(if you're lucky enough to actually get real help because the only way to treat ADHD is amphetamine stimulants. Exercise and eating right does not work as well as people think or say but it helps)
Then other drugs to counteract side effects of drugs, because the only drugs and medications that work have side effects.
So without help you're stuck in a deep sense of dysphoria
You'll forever feel depressed, anxious and just never actually feeling okay.
Then you cannot function correctly in real life.
You'll always ruin opportunities and mess everything up at work because you cannot focus.
That's why homeless people usually have just given up.
Mental disorders like this, leads to drugs.
Then ultimately the acceptance that you'll never fix your life because youve done everything you can to fix it
And people think drugs are the reason it's bad
But drugs are the only way at that point.
That's why it's important to JUST deal with Adderall, and take tolerance breaks and just accept that you're still gonna be a mess even with that
The brain goes into a state of homeostasis.
Whatever you do, your brain will get used to it. Which leads to you needing more
And when I say Adderall and marijuana, I mean it starts with those good medications and leads to meth, opiates, alcohol, OR other terrible behavior
Curiosity and boredom for me, but out of everything I tried alcohol is my DOC ( drug of choice ) I drink in moderation now, struggled with it as a teenager but got a grip on it in my 20’s
Yeah man I think the only difference between him and a white collar situation is that 1. He sought ethical justice while inside. Simply could not abide a predator preying upon defenseless people (children, women)
There’s a lot of people that grew up with parents together, food on the table, didn’t want for much. But parents were always at work, stressed out, angry all the time so took it out on the kids.
Or didn’t take it out on them, but were never there emotionally for the kid. So many like to say being poor was so hard to grow up around. Always act like if you weren’t starving and had a parent on crack then you had it easy. I’ve known many instances where kids were growing up with money but had violent parents or they didn’t show any love. They had it alot harder then some I knew that were poor as fuk but their parents showed them alot of love.
Great interview. JD seems to be as open and honest about his recovery experience. I give him tremendous credit for remaining sober after losing his child. Which is an unbelievable challenge. I'm so sorry for anyone who has lost a child. Those i know who have it has pushed them to near death or taking the express lane to the next plane sadly.
Delay said "I even let him keep his shoes which i thought was very gracious." 😂 this man was a savage. Love it great story teller
Ya story teller. He should of been a non fiction author
Great interview, Ian. Love JD and although his videos he makes he gives us the story behind his life. He did so with even greater detail here with you and we got more stories. I kinda found out a few days after I found out about him and it was a treat to know you both had this banger coming out. And it was a great watch. My wife and I loved it
Thanks so much Michael! Glad you enjoyed
I really enjoy your content!!!!! Excellent interview
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed.
Man JD is one of the most real and humble human beings on the planet. I’m happy to see he turned his life around. This world needs more people with the mindset of JD
This is my 2nd episode in a row that I've watched on your channel. You're such a good interviewer! You've gained a permanent subscriber!
Last year I had twenty-five years clean and sober, still crazy but clean. Even after all these years. I can still hardly believe it. I'm a chemist and I was born addicted to barbiturates. My mom copped Seconal for morning sickness. But I really have twenty-five years. I can't breathe, I have Emphysema. But I love life. Thank you guys
Respect. Keep going. I'm working towards sobriety myself
JD I got so much respect for you bro……… so so so so much man. When I had first seen one of your UA-cam shorts, I was a little judgmental. Now after seeing a solid amount of videos, and especially now after watching this, my respect and appreciation for you has went through the roof. I am completely sorry for your loss brother. I’ve lost my brother Father’s Day of 2020, to fentanyl use. So it really resonates with me. Keep pushin’ my guy!!!! Got all the love in the world for ya. Ian you rock for this interview and podcast my guy.
🙏🙏💪
Been fans of you both for a while! Much love to you both!
Thanks so much rob!
Ffs get a room
I really enjoy JD's content and I've thankfully never been to prison or jail but I'm in active recovery. I've got 3 different sober dates for 3 different classes of substances. 19yrs clean from hard drugs, 12yrs sober from booze and I'm 569 days clean today from Opiate pain pills. I'm doing great in my recovery. No slips or relapses and I really don't miss the pain pills at all. I'm on Suboxone and it's really helped far more with the chronic pain I have than the narcotics I'm addicted to ever did. It's crazy that until I finally self submitted to a Rapid Access to Addiction Medicine (RAAM) Clinic on August 17th 2021. Best thing that I ever did.
Congrats brother. That’s a hell of an accomplishment. I have almost 7 years clean from heroin and pain pills. I take subutex and it saved my life pretty much. I don’t think I’d be alive or at least wouldn’t be clean without it. Im down from taking 24mg a day to 4mg, trying to get off it all together, but taking it one step at a time. Just glad I got out of it at the right time, before fentanyl got into everything. Glad you made it through man. Good luck with the rest of your life. Make it a good one!
Sound like a ju nkie to me
Good job! Now get off the Suboxone! I got the sublocade shot for 3 months in a row, and was then able to get off completely! Hope you can do the same!
Damn. When JD said he left his mom weeping, it hit home with a ton of bricks bro. Makes me really wanna go see my mom. ❤️
Give her a call
I read this, heard him say it, and had to tell my mom I love her. I’ve put her through a lot. That was many years ago but still, never hurts to remind someone how much you love them.
I have recently discovered Mr. Delay a short while ago, he sends a beautiful message of you can't judge a book by its cover as well now as Mr. Bick whom I am now subscribed to as well, interesting conversations. We all have our demons, luckily and thankfully these two lived to tell the tale. I look forward to both channels.
Hey JD, thanks for sharing the story of your son. I'm sorry that you've gone through that loss, but nonetheless I am impressed that you dealt with the traumatic event in a healthy way. KEEP FIGHTING ON!
At 1:18:40 that moment then JD says "thank you brother I appreciate it" I started to tear up. At that moment the weight of those words are extremely heavy.
Just finished watching his live. Im here from his live chat
Same
This was/is a GREAT interview Ian!! I like this dude!! U guys are doing great!! Keep up the fantastic work!💪🏽♥️
I have never heard a more relatable story to my own when it comes to meth. Kudos.
Knew this podcast would blow he be at 100k in months
What an amazing story, and person. I wish JD all the success with his continued recovery and community outreach. I love when someone can go from among the worst of society to being such a positive force in the world.
I love how passionate JD seems to be about his life now. He fought hard to get to this point in his life, and he certainly earned it. I’m glad he’s putting his energy into fighting for others too. So cool.
My uncle did time from when I was 8 ta when I turned 15 and I'll never forget when he was actually excited to get out of county cause they had more available at the prison lol and man he's got more war story's a scars from county then he does from prison... This is super cool and jd delay is the best UA-camr ATM he has so much detail and character when he tells his situation
Meant to check out a couple minutes of this and ended up watching this whole episode at 2:00AM
So good
this dude is so honest if you’ve ever been in you know, especially on the west coast. you just know he’s tellin it like he is
This just shows me that not every inmate is always violent. JD seems extremely tough, but is also a really cool and caring guy
Love of yall btw.im an addict in recovery and also a convict.
Proud of you! Recovery is amazing!!!
@@JdDelay5150 thanks brother that means alot coming from you
His energy. Some of us were lucky and never got caught and we can relate. He is fking awsome
After he said “I don’t why 69 is still breathing” I LoL and fell out of my chair had to pause it and write this 😂
