I literally sit and make myself watch one of these a week. I don't know what it is, but it's I get the feeling that as I'm listening to these people (who I assume have never had the opportunity to express their feelings comfortably) that as they are releasing their pain, I'm releasing mine. This is some of the best shit I've ever came across. It's like an ode to humanity. Respect.
Yep . The good ol days when things were simplier. Still gangs, but different.one of my girls came from Truchas or somewhere, came back to school with a wicked ass scar up n down her leg, from a can opener. Like ok, respect. We all were n "special schools". ☮️
Hell yeah! Love it and feel the same exact way... there's very few people on this planet that give a damn about you or how you're feeling, it's nice to have an ear to just listen sometimes.
@Richard Garcia My moms never gave a damn I hang around with, Stories, tales just an insight into another persons life - I look at people eating on TV I dont necessarily wanna eat it cos I see it.
@@BornWriter Very smart analysis. It's better to watch than experience the true horror of what it really was..I was a normal kid in that hood, and still have vivid memories of what I saw, including death...like right next to me. Stay smart and on the right path. 💯💙💎👌🏽
That story about his mother and aunt getting run over by the truck is horrible. Damn..... This guy seriously needs to get with a professional author and write a book. He peppers his stories with little details like a great writer does. You can’t make this shit up. Love this guy...
Soft White Underbelly I look forward to more videos! I can tell you’re sitting back listening, just as captivated as us viewers. No questions needed. He just keeps the story rolling himself. Love it!
y'all realize he's all drugged up, right? he can be your hero, but i can't look at people that do the type of things this individual does, as "good people." He is not good people and does not deserve an ounce of respect. in addition- y'all realize he's all hopped up on something, right? his stories are literally that- "stories." Who knows how much of it is true, fantasy or drug-inducted-psychotic ramblings. it is interesting to hear the stories of these people, but you're foolish to put stock into what they're saying. i've dealt with these people 1) they're making a living off panhandling and telling sad stories- you bet your behind they've got good stories, nobody will give cash to them if they don't 2) mental illness is not as easy to recognize as you would think. i've been fooled many times and can tell you their stories seem legit, but they aren't always. 3) go ahead and trust them. you'll find out how trustworthy they are.
@@SoftWhiteUnderbelly Hi! I posted on Cassandra's thread too..but...soo many comments...I know I've suggested this to you before..(and u have so much free time)...but...what about merchandise? I think it will sell fast! Income for SWU and maybe % for interviewees? Many sites available that r easy to use to create and sell on TH-cam. I think you may be surprised how much and how fast you sell SWU merch. 💕
Boy can this man talk! The only time he didn’t speak was when he was being asked a question. Other than that, he spoke non stop for 50 minutes! Verbal machine! Excellent story teller. It seems like he’s speaking from experience. If what he’s saying isn’t true, he’s a phenomenal shit talker! 😂
Michael L addicts live lives that if they share it with you 90 percent of you would believe that they are lying. I been clean five years with one slip up two years in that lasted about a year I'm good now. But if I told my life you all would believe that I am lying about it all.
Larryjay Hamilton I believe what he is saying is true. It’s fascinating to hear all the insane experiences he has gone through. Good on you for getting sober. I know it’s certainly not easy to do, so hats off to you brother 👍
Larryjay Hamilton... same here, if I told you my life events it would give you chills too, as it has when I did tell my story to my best friend yes she got chills. I love this channel but something about johnnie and his eyes being closed triggered me to shut it down.
Put some respect on his name. To have made it out the 80s and 90s in my era is a mandatory salute. Did what he did, that was his lifestyle, and of course it was his choice. Blessing big dawg, looking forward to hearing more about him!
Camaro 1968 everyone faces a different lifestyle dont compare anyones to his, or yours. Of course there was people who made it out and are doing better than he is. He chose it, stupid mentality, dumb choice if u ask me but hey its reality! Not everyone has the same path.
In L.A there is an infamous Denny's located right down the street from the twin towers county jail, or old county jail. I'm sure tons of ahit happened there

Excellent Interview I respect and love you Mark that you’re not interrupting Johnny Storie telling what a release for Johnny to express himself I pray for Johnny safety and guidance 15 years old were just the misfortunes after misfortunes of Johnny life’s experiences
I'd love to hear an interview with Johnny's grandmother. She has a valuable story to tell, as the matriarch of a gang family. What a heartbreaking tale she has to share with us. I'm saying this as a woman, and as a mother.
I could listen to this man talk all day. So incredibly smart and talented, idc what anybody says. It takes a special somebody to go through all that and still alive to tell all these stories!
With every word he says, I can see the events happening in front of me like it’s a movie. Every time he describes a particular family member or something they said or did, it’s like I can see them more clearly too, they’re becoming real people in my mind, people I can empathize with even though their lives have been so vastly different from mine. I’ve never had this experience before from listening to someone speak. Something about Johnny, his voice, the way he describes people and remembers specific details…he’s an incredibly talented storyteller. I could listen to him for hours. I have ADHD, and I only mention this because it means that I am especially prone to zoning out/losing focus of a long story when I’m bored. That doesn’t happen with Johnny. There is not one moment when I’m not fascinated, or disturbed, or feeling some strong emotion because of how well he speaks. Johnny, if you ever read this, I just want to say thank you for sharing these stories of your life with so much honesty. When I hear pain in your voice, I feel it. It breaks my heart what you’ve been through. None of us are perfect, and we can’t choose our fate in life. Who are parents are, how we grow up, it can set us up for such different lives. But that doesn’t change our value as a human being. I’m not saying the things you’ve done are good, but neither were the things done to YOU. The world is unfair. But from one human to another, I love you and I hope you can heal and find peace.
@@darrinmiles3712 Where did I make fun of addiction? I will mock his ability to stay coherent. Everyone else is shocked by his elegance, dignity, strength, and intelligence. Meanwhile, he cant open his eyes. Reading comprehension is not strong in these ones...
By far the most entertaining guy on this channel. The best storyteller with the best stories. They need to make a movie about this guy’s life. Ty Johnny.
The way he can be that silly and play around or even just be that charismatic aftwr recounting his mother’s brutal death and fathers suicide is more than enough inspirations I need to get through hard times 😭💪🏼❤️
The connotation of “bless you” is totally religious. Also you say you are not religious but your TH-cam channel has videos about allah and the ridiculous quran. Religious people are addicted to abuse...abusing themselves and abusing others.
He was a good at Pop locking /dancing when he was younger . Remember going whale watching In elementary, He and his brother were so happy That day, Hope you find peace Johnny.
I can’t get enough of Johnny’s stories. Man has definitely lived a wild,crazy life and has lived to tell his tale. Not too many people that live the sort of life Johnny has make it out alive. Much respect to him 🫡🫡
There literally needs to be a movie about him, his stories are very entertaining and its trippy to hear what happens in each story much respect for him and all his fam.
I swear Johnny is the best individual I've seen on this entire channel. So vivid and real. All his videos are great to listen to. Man deserves an entire biography!
@@floridaboybrandon954 I don't think he'd be able to talk so fast if it was from the dope. I thought he was closing his eyes because he was trying to imagine himself back there to be able to tell the store as vividly as he did. He's pretty good at telling the story and capturing attention.
He explains in another video that he closes his eyes while doing these to insure he's speaking exactly on how he remembers things, to insure no one calls him out saying "Hey, I was there for that and your story is false"
Yall crazy with the content. These are so beautifully produced, well conducted. The audio sounds great, the guests are charismatic - well picked. The photos yall take are stunning. Great great job all around fr
I think at times when I watch these interviews that this is the first time someone has sat down and really listened to them. I’m grateful for this page for opening my eyes and mind to people I would have never came into contact with. Goes to show you that we are all just trying to survive this time on earth at any means possible. Thanks for sharing your life story!
@@jrocktalks6480 You: hfbbfhvefhfuvsfdvbs nksfjencjb ubejdvsjcbh kucbsn Everyone Else: Thank you soOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo much! Your P0C is very important to us!! NOT!!!
I understand big casper feelings very well. My own wife passed just after turning 24 of opiod overdose. I feel that same guilt of living when my younger wife cannot live. Till this day i feel guilty for being able to walk this earth when she cannot.
I love Johnny. He's so open and (I believe) honest about his life. Bravo and thank you, Johnny, for giving it to us raw. Thanks to you, Mark, for giving us these videos.
I don’t get it there’s two videos by this channel interviewing two guys named Johnny that look identical. Am I tripping? Is this not the same guy as in this video
@@ethanredd3342 Sometimes he interviews the same people multiple times. Most times he'll put like, "update" or something, but other times, he just tittles it their name
Just absolutely tragic. So sad how he lost his mom and father. I couldn’t fathom going through a pinch of what he’s been through. I would love to see an interview with his grandma
Was torcido with Casper 93-96 C.V.S.P. was a solid well respected individual. Always carried himself with style and un chingo de class. Heluva a pinochle player, Having queens and jacks walk!
Johnny, I had no idea you faced so much loss, trauma, and blame at such a young age. You’re my favorite guest on this docuseries. Big hugs from Sparks, Nevada 🖤
Holy shit man, could you imagine losing your mother like that.. count your blessings people, and never judge.. you never know what the next person has been threw..
Anyone saying he’s sleep obviously doesn’t know the street. He’s on dope. They call it the social nod which means you can speak but not keep your eyes open. Hope the homie get off that shit - got a possible career in story telling waiting for him .
He was involved in all that but yet he sitting there giving interview Born and raised in NORWALK SELA REAL VATOS DON'T TALK ESPECIALLY IF THEY SURposely involved in this stuff all stories don't believe everything on these interviews
@@BigBadMF43 i know that I was involved in the same life style except the drugs i know many old hypes that don't sing like a canary when they slam back
Everything this Cat is saying is true... I know him been busted with him and his brother shorty .... Both no good he lost me when he said he is Active... And the cheese 🍔 sisters are also the real deal... ✌👊
Mad respect for these interviews. Thank you for letting people be themselves without judgement or commentary. I am learning so much about what the truth is in the lives of people I have never truly known in my personal life. I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict with a story that is enough for me. I am humbled by the huma nity you are allowing to come to us through these interviews. This feels like true love in action.
@@Gary-jh3wd yup shouldn't be hard to find under videos. I would link, but I'm on mobile. Also, the thumbnail is different but still under the name Johnny.
Like a favorite movie, I listen to this particular SWU interview adleast 2times a week. He could of written a novel, still can. Mr Casper you are truly a real 1 n extremely entertaining. Thank you sir
Thought the same thing me and my daughter thought what a great story could be a book, keeps his eyes close remember and everything that happened in his life. Lucky for him he still alive so far anyway
Lisabeth Gump He needs to repent and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. Gods been merciful on his life. I’m Sure his mom who was right with God before she died has a lot to do with it.
My favorite guest ive found so far, frenchie was also excellent. Literally just descovered your channel recently and been binging ever since, so im sure iv alot of great ones still to come
I seen where a couple people think he's lying. But i dont think so!! Because that's alot of stories to keep up with. Am sorry he had to see what happen to his mom and aunt😔that's horrible. And for his dad to tell him he going to end his LIFE!! Am surprised he dont have PSTD dealing with all that as a kid. His whole has been filled with drama and pain...It's a shame ur family didn't give you a better outlook for life... He's life would make a best seller book. I wish him the best and i really enjoyed his interview. Much blessings and love to you Johnny.💕💕💕
@@donatopr86 some of these youtube geniuses in the comments thinks hes lying about most of what he says but i believe Dawn that it has to be hard to remember the timeline down to exact age and everything when you have had a life filled with events that most people wouldn't reach in multiple lifes.
You're right, he's telling the truth. Johnny is actually famous for the activities, and power of his past. I didn't live it, I've learned about it from others. I do remember cholos in El Monte, California, wearing hairnets. There were guys in wheelchairs because of drive-by shootings. I always wonder about the women affiliated with the gangs. The mothers and wives, the sisters and girlfriends. What do they think of all of this?
I live in the mountains of western North Carolina in a small town. But I love to listen to Johnny tell his stories about his life and how he handles situations and it’s so crazy how two people who live completely different lives are so similar
Can we please get a tv show about Johnny's life? His life story is so tragic. It's a gritty life filled with death, drugs, violence, gangs, sprinkled in with some happy moments. It's an intense look at humanity lived through the eyes of a child as he grows up in a chaotic system of dysfunction. God bless you Johnny.
This one interview made me tear up. My daughter sat around and watched it with me and asked me if I knew people like this dude? And I did.... It was my childhood friens.
Damn homie! That's crazy! Hey, I used to have a really good friend with the same apellido. He was from Guadalajara, del donde eres? If you want to reply it doesn't matter which language you prefer. Not trying to make assumptions, ONLY to show respect.
@@Ernesto91763I had a great friend from Jalisco! We were cooks in a good restaurant, he's one of the best I've ever seen! Yo creo jalisco es una ciudad de gran gente, pero esta muy lejos de donde yo estoy! ¡Me gustaría ir allí algún día!
Has anyone seen Sons of Anarchy? Remember the writer/producer/director Kurt Sutter that plays Otto? This guy reminds me of a Mexican Otto for some reason.
Man can’t believe this guy is still alive to tell his tales. Truly unbelievable stories and it seems like these are normal things for him. Best of luck my man 🙌🏾
Johnny is the best guest in my opinion, i like him more than i like Sharp. Different walks of life i guess but thats what i love about your show! The various walks of life in full effect without any judgement or persecution just a safe spot to tell real life stories. I love how sometimes Johnny is almost nodding off but he is still telling the story with total conviction! He's a positive dude now, I'm glad he has lived through all the things he has, if anything just to tell his stories!
PLEASE TELL HIM TO WRITE A BOOK !!! He’s so good at telling his stories ! I honestly never got bored and I’m on my second video of him. Please tell him I appreciate his honesty and that hearing about his life gave me a better look into what some “gangsters” go through
If any kids are watching this , take notes . The decisions you make in your youth will determine your future. Johnnys story is great and intriguing to listen too but pay attention, his family has 3 generations of pain and suffering. Nothing of that is anything to be proud of or look up to.
"Jonny" has many great stories to tell. The story about his Mother, Aunt, and Father ripped my heart out. That is such a huge tragedy to face as a young person. I am so glad that his Grandmother stepped up for him and his brother. Jonny has such a likable personality, even though he speaks of things that I could not even fathom doing, I like him. He could write a book about his life under an assumed name and probably make some money.
Thanks for this videos. I watch these when i get really deppresed. And it makes me realise that my problems are nothing compared to some people. I feel for you Johnny. I hope your will get a good life in the next round.
"Johnny" has to be one of the best stories tellers in your series. I came of age in the early 70s in NYC. I was the youngest of five brothers. All of them were 7+ years my senior. Four of my brothers were hardcore users for years and survived to tell their stories. Johnny's stories are almost the same as theirs but, set in NYC. He reminds me of my brother Robert because he told the best stories and was funny as hell as he told it. "Cheese Burger 🧀 Sisters" LMAO.
I literally sit and make myself watch one of these a week. I don't know what it is, but it's I get the feeling that as I'm listening to these people (who I assume have never had the opportunity to express their feelings comfortably) that as they are releasing their pain, I'm releasing mine. This is some of the best shit I've ever came across. It's like an ode to humanity. Respect.

...because there's a difference between knowing the stories and walking the stories.
This guy was "the stories"
passion
Because he lived it.
Because his adrenaline is hyping him up while knowing the fact that he will be getting some money to fuel his habit. That's most likely why
He was a good at
Pop locking /dancing when he was younger .
Remember going whale watching
In elementary,
He and his brother were so happy

Hope you find peace Johnny.

I swear Johnny is the best individual I've seen on this entire channel. So vivid and real. All his videos are great to listen to. Man deserves an entire biography!
He's so gangsta his eyeballs called it quits and dipped
It's the heroina
@@floridaboybrandon954 I don't think he'd be able to talk so fast if it was from the dope. I thought he was closing his eyes because he was trying to imagine himself back there to be able to tell the store as vividly as he did. He's pretty good at telling the story and capturing attention.
@@evec2104 its called a tolerance take it from a ex junky dudes fucked up on some type of opiate
🤣🤣🤣🥴🥴🥴
He explains in another video that he closes his eyes while doing these to insure he's speaking exactly on how he remembers things, to insure no one calls him out saying "Hey, I was there for that and your story is false"
Yall crazy with the content. These are so beautifully produced, well conducted. The audio sounds great, the guests are charismatic - well picked. The photos yall take are stunning. Great great job all around fr
California history right here..these stories are gems bro..by any chance if u read this Johnny thank u and I wish the best for u brotha..
I think at times when I watch these interviews that this is the first time someone has sat down and really listened to them. I’m grateful for this page for opening my eyes and mind to people I would have never came into contact with. Goes to show you that we are all just trying to survive this time on earth at any means possible. Thanks for sharing your life story!
“I never call the cops.” “I am the cops.” 🤣
his eyes are closed cause hes reliving it as he tells it in his head you can tell hes not lying
also nigga might b on a lil dope
TheOriginalCast lmao its called heroin bro hahahah
@@donovantrujillo8836 if you could read "bro" i said dat
TheOriginalCast ` yea he a lil high
It's called heroin man.....
Grandma sounds like an undercover gangster 🤣
House mom. Had a few of those!
This one is the heaviest one. He saw his mom die and couldn't stop his dad from killing himself. And he can't even see his little brother. wtf
@Young PC Your screen name ain’t on good terms ese
Yup that's not uncommon in l.a alot of kids dnt got dads at all

He's doing good, thanks for your guys concern he really appreciates your guys support ❤️ and thank you!
I love listening to your dad,very charismatic 👌 tell him i said hi 😉 🇮🇪
I understand big casper feelings very well. My own wife passed just after turning 24 of opiod overdose. I feel that same guilt of living when my younger wife cannot live. Till this day i feel guilty for being able to walk this earth when she cannot.
What’s crazy is that y’all think his eyes are closed. He peep everything. That’s ol school og. Respect
"Made by a woman and raised by a woman." Deep and very important.
Women can't raise kids, they suffer with women.
Part of the reason he soo messed up . Sry to say , every boy needs a Man in order to become one . 💯🙏🏾

I procrastinated this episode for a while but it’s one of the best I’ve ever seen, life is surprises you sometimes.
This is my favorite. Very emotional and picture painting!
It felt like an audio book
This was
Is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen.
This man is incredible. So amazing to hear his story and background!
johnny. you inspire me i’m 19 and i’m lost but you inspire me man
Hang in there Hayden
I love Johnny. He's so open and (I believe) honest about his life. Bravo and thank you, Johnny, for giving it to us raw. Thanks to you, Mark, for giving us these videos.
WHENS THE NEXT JOHNNY INTERVIEW COMING WE NEED IT
facts we do
I don’t get it there’s two videos by this channel interviewing two guys named Johnny that look identical. Am I tripping? Is this not the same guy as in this video
th-cam.com/video/qdcaBLUsgGQ/w-d-xo.html
He’s from my neighborhood
@@ethanredd3342 Sometimes he interviews the same people multiple times. Most times he'll put like, "update" or something, but other times, he just tittles it their name
This is one of the BEST video I've seen in this channel
Just absolutely tragic. So sad how he lost his mom and father. I couldn’t fathom going through a pinch of what he’s been through.
I would love to see an interview with his grandma
Yup thats right a interview to his under cover gangster Grandma
damn the story about his dad brutal, this dude must have felt alot of pain
Keep bringing this guy back. He has lived so much and has so much to share. I could listen to him talk for days.
Was torcido with Casper 93-96 C.V.S.P. was a solid well respected individual. Always carried himself with style and un chingo de class. Heluva a pinochle player, Having queens and jacks walk!
No Go Damn foo , real shit ? nigga do seem like he carry himself well n allat but can he fight n shit?
Johnny, I had no idea you faced so much loss, trauma, and blame at such a young age. You’re my favorite guest on this docuseries. Big hugs from Sparks, Nevada 🖤
Holy shit man, could you imagine losing your mother like that.. count your blessings people, and never judge.. you never know what the next person has been threw..
Darren Brown word man.
Real talk.
whatever he's been through, likely doesn't compare to the horrors he caused other people, this man is a demon
@@joeramos4489 shut up
@@joeramos4489 u don’t even personally know this foo and u over here judging tf outta him 🤣
I been binge watching Johnny all day! 😫😳
Damn this brother has had quite a life, I hope all the mistreated souls can find peace one day
@Cowboy BEST TH-cam ID name EVER!!!!!
What an incredible speaker/storyteller this dude is, such an incredible talent to have
Strangely one of the few TH-cam interviews i believe every single word in.
Your gorgeous ✌️
What's your IG
Facts 💯
THANK YOU
Anyone saying he’s sleep obviously doesn’t know the street. He’s on dope. They call it the social nod which means you can speak but not keep your eyes open. Hope the homie get off that shit - got a possible career in story telling waiting for him .
He was involved in all that but yet he sitting there giving interview Born and raised in NORWALK SELA REAL VATOS DON'T TALK ESPECIALLY IF THEY SURposely involved in this stuff all stories don't believe everything on these interviews
Larry Lara Sr no doubt Mano . It’s why I said story telling😉
@@BigBadMF43 i know that I was involved in the same life style except the drugs i know many old hypes that don't sing like a canary when they slam back
His varrio is still very active he don't go there anymore
Everything this Cat is saying is true... I know him been busted with him and his brother shorty .... Both no good he lost me when he said he is Active... And the cheese 🍔 sisters are also the real deal... ✌👊
Can’t stop picturing this dude being Jorge masvidals dad lol
Nugs YT or Nate Diaz’s uncle
Haha That was what i was thinking dawg
3 piece and a bullet
@@crook4life513 or stockton slash
Bruh
Johnny, you’re a literal inspiration. I watch all your videos seriously every single one and you’re a force of nature
"Stash me somewhere" 🤣 then he stashed me like a gun in the bushes, put some leaves on me and ran away
Mad respect for these interviews. Thank you for letting people be themselves without judgement or commentary. I am learning so much about what the truth is in the lives of people I have never truly known in my personal life. I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict with a story that is enough for me. I am humbled by the huma nity you are allowing to come to us through these interviews. This feels like true love in action.
I can’t stop listening to his lived stories they reminds me of RIP brother.
Legend has it that he’s still 15 till this day
🤣👍👍👍👍
Hahaha
😂😂
😂😂
@John Covington ey i been threw hell from the age of 12 and 18
I've been waiting for this. I enjoyed his first interview.
Yup.
on this channel?
@@Gary-jh3wd yup shouldn't be hard to find under videos. I would link, but I'm on mobile. Also, the thumbnail is different but still under the name Johnny.
Hands down Johnny has the
best stories !!! He needs his own Chanel
I coudl legit listen to this guy ALL DAY LONG!!!! You should have him weekly on your channel !!!!!
Best episode yet! His honesty and transparency is amazing.
85 cent pack of cigarettes now you know that was a long ass time ago.
Crazy I remember those days
Yup me too. I think I remember when they were 35 cents.
Like a favorite movie, I listen to this particular SWU interview adleast 2times a week. He could of written a novel, still can. Mr Casper you are truly a real 1 n extremely entertaining. Thank you sir
Thought the same thing me and my daughter thought what a great story could be a book, keeps his eyes close remember and everything that happened in his life. Lucky for him he still alive so far anyway
Lisabeth Gump He needs to repent and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Gods been merciful on his life. I’m Sure his mom who was right with God before she died has a lot to do with it.
My favorite guest ive found so far, frenchie was also excellent. Literally just descovered your channel recently and been binging ever since, so im sure iv alot of great ones still to come
I cannot get enough. I have so many questions. I wished i could spend weeks talking with him. Wow.
These vids are nothing short of remarkable.
Keep doing it, Mark
Right tf on.
Sorry about your losses brother. Love every interview with you Casper
I love these videos!! We need more people like you , Mark. Thank you for letting these souls express their emotions
I seen where a couple people think he's lying. But i dont think so!! Because that's alot of stories to keep up with. Am sorry he had to see what happen to his mom and aunt😔that's horrible. And for his dad to tell him he going to end his LIFE!! Am surprised he dont have PSTD dealing with all that as a kid. His whole has been filled with drama and pain...It's a shame ur family didn't give you a better outlook for life... He's life would make a best seller book. I wish him the best and i really enjoyed his interview. Much blessings and love to you Johnny.💕💕💕
Who thinks he's lying? Nothing he said is super crazy. That's regular day to day shit.
yeah I agree. if he was lying, he'd have to have written all this stuff down to memorize it so much.
@@donatopr86 some of these youtube geniuses in the comments thinks hes lying about most of what he says but i believe Dawn that it has to be hard to remember the timeline down to exact age and everything when you have had a life filled with events that most people wouldn't reach in multiple lifes.
Dawn Petgrave LA was no joke in the 80s 90s 00s
You're right, he's telling the truth. Johnny is actually famous for the activities, and power of his past. I didn't live it, I've learned about it from others. I do remember cholos in El Monte, California, wearing hairnets. There were guys in wheelchairs because of drive-by shootings. I always wonder about the women affiliated with the gangs. The mothers and wives, the sisters and girlfriends. What do they think of all of this?
I live in the mountains of western North Carolina in a small town. But I love to listen to Johnny tell his stories about his life and how he handles situations and it’s so crazy how two people who live completely different lives are so similar
He actually sleeps w his eyes open 👀
It’s actually pretty is to sleep with ya eyes 👀 open. Just need practice.
And tells stories with his eyes closed.
Hahaha!
His secret.... Hes always sleepy 😴😴😴
👀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can we please get a tv show about Johnny's life? His life story is so tragic. It's a gritty life filled with death, drugs, violence, gangs, sprinkled in with some happy moments. It's an intense look at humanity lived through the eyes of a child as he grows up in a chaotic system of dysfunction. God bless you Johnny.
He’s such a great story teller; I can always visualize exactly what he’s saying
Hands down the best channel for interviews
This one interview made me tear up. My daughter sat around and watched it with me and asked me if I knew people like this dude? And I did.... It was my childhood friens.
Damn homie! That's crazy! Hey, I used to have a really good friend with the same apellido. He was from Guadalajara, del donde eres? If you want to reply it doesn't matter which language you prefer. Not trying to make assumptions, ONLY to show respect.
@@alexmajors7915 Guadalajara like you said....
@@Ernesto91763 yup, or very close by, like the outskirts of the city.
@@alexmajors7915 LA Barca Jalisco
@@Ernesto91763I had a great friend from Jalisco! We were cooks in a good restaurant, he's one of the best I've ever seen! Yo creo jalisco es una ciudad de gran gente, pero esta muy lejos de donde yo estoy! ¡Me gustaría ir allí algún día!
Give this man a TV show. I could watch this ALL day.
All his family knew that his destiny was prison. That's some generational curse right there. The devil is alive.
This dudes life has been so eventful, one interview doesn't cover it all. In fact, I've seen several. Dude is legend.
Has anyone seen Sons of Anarchy? Remember the writer/producer/director Kurt Sutter that plays Otto? This guy reminds me of a Mexican Otto for some reason.
I am so sorry for all the loss you have experienced Johnny. Blessing to you.
Give us more Jonny stories 🙏🙏🙏😃!!! I’ve had my share of run-in’s as a youngster, but Jonnny’s a genius at telling these stories! 😉
Man can’t believe this guy is still alive to tell his tales. Truly unbelievable stories and it seems like these are normal things for him. Best of luck my man 🙌🏾
Dang i really wanted to hear him finish the story of what hell is like and his brother taken over heaven
Me too !!!
Same here!
Johnny is the best guest in my opinion, i like him more than i like Sharp. Different walks of life i guess but thats what i love about your show! The various walks of life in full effect without any judgement or persecution just a safe spot to tell real life stories. I love how sometimes Johnny is almost nodding off but he is still telling the story with total conviction! He's a positive dude now, I'm glad he has lived through all the things he has, if anything just to tell his stories!
He gives a perspective of gang and street life that I have never heard before. I could listen to him talk for hours.
i have no words... im so sad this is true. Amazing talker and interview!
Today's word of the day is Treacherous.
😂
Hahaha
I think it's BRANDISH!
Hell yeaa
PLEASE TELL HIM TO WRITE A BOOK !!! He’s so good at telling his stories ! I honestly never got bored and I’m on my second video of him. Please tell him I appreciate his honesty and that hearing about his life gave me a better look into what some “gangsters” go through
Another one! Nice! I am endlessly fascinated by this guy....
If any kids are watching this , take notes . The decisions you make in your youth will determine your future. Johnnys story is great and intriguing to listen too but pay attention, his family has 3 generations of pain and suffering. Nothing of that is anything to be proud of or look up to.
"Jonny" has many great stories to tell. The story about his Mother, Aunt, and Father ripped my heart out. That is such a huge tragedy to face as a young person. I am so glad that his Grandmother stepped up for him and his brother. Jonny has such a likable personality, even though he speaks of things that I could not even fathom doing, I like him. He could write a book about his life under an assumed name and probably make some money.
I'm learning so much watching these videos.
School of hard knocks .. first hand right here on TH-cam.
Thanks Mark.
That photo of him is a masterpiece
Thanks for this videos. I watch these when i get really deppresed. And it makes me realise that my problems are nothing compared to some people. I feel for you Johnny. I hope your will get a good life in the next round.
Johnny could write a book that could be made into a movie. I’m fascinated!
"Johnny" has to be one of the best stories tellers in your series. I came of age in the early 70s in NYC. I was the youngest of five brothers. All of them were 7+ years my senior. Four of my brothers were hardcore users for years and survived to tell their stories. Johnny's stories are almost the same as theirs but, set in NYC. He reminds me of my brother Robert because he told the best stories and was funny as hell as he told it. "Cheese Burger 🧀 Sisters" LMAO.
