I swear.. There could be a channel *JUST* for Ghost and Herc alone. You guys are not only personally experienced, but both have a way of speaking to those who are street educated, and those who are not. With the utmost respect and love; you are appreciated and very much needed these days.. It is never too late to change, and nobody is perfect; so learn from the learned.. Don't burn with the burned.
On some real shit I stopped watching Herc a while back and literally stopped watching Prison videos in general because it started to get filled with a lot of clout chasers and big talkers but Ghost is the REALNESS. I'm seriously feeling this man.
I'm a C/O in Indiana, I love watching your show. It helps me get my mind right going and coming from work. Dudes need to wake up when it come to that line of work
straight up warrior, crazy to hear first hand stories from people who made out of the prison system and made something of themselves. Respect to both of these men, teaching me more than my own father did.
This just sounds absolutely crazy. I will FOREVER choose to walk the straight and narrow, before I do something to subject myself to this kind of stuff!
Don't think that just because you follow the rules means it can't happen. They change the rules all the time. If the whole population just started being on our best behavior, no murders no assaults or robberies. They're not gonna just back off and we all live in harmony. They're just going to move the goalpost and get strict about more petty shit, less and less privacy until all of us are controlable.
People think of government control/ oppression just as them in jackboots chaining all of us up.. but why do all that when they already got us doing what they want? We know for a fact that they spy on us through phones and shit...but we never do anything. The only time we do anything is in a george Floyd situation.. but what good did that do? Made some noise,the only people that got hurt is the average people. We have all these big problems and we don't do shit. They know that. They also know that you will buy the next IPhone, do the next viral challenge,etc. Law of large numbers. But everyone is so intent on playing this same game that we don't see that it isn't a game.
And to clarify. This isn't some conspiracy shit, I'm not a conspiracy guy, I don't go on reddit or watch conspiracy videos. Also I'm not saying that this is exactly what's happening or proof or anything. I'm just saying it's more than possible and feasible. Also, I'm not anti police or anti government. I'm a realist. We do need law and law enforcement and we do need government (ik a lot of you say you don't but then rely on the government for ALL of your needs like they're your daddy) I just want to live in a balanced world where people are judged on merit and all of us have true freedom.
That outnumbered riot story gives me chills. As a white dude, that's in my top 5 worst fears right there. But Ghost's tactical thinking, understanding that an exit must be available before numbers are even slimmer, or before everyone is fatigued probably saved some lives that day. Wisdom can't be taught, and learning warfare is the most expensive tuition in the world.
Man anytime ghost is on here I’m gonna tune in. I owe that man a lot. You never know what someone’s words can do for your life if you take them and start to bring them to life
Dude, I was a lucky kid man doing the shit. Never spent a day in jail. Spent 30 days in rehab as a plea for weed shit mainly. I could never think of going and doing this crap. I joined the Army to simply get the hell out. Some say that's its own kind of prison. Did a tour in Iraq. I'd do that any damn day of the week over being in a shoe box with some others man. Listening to you guys is a real gift.
Much appreciated for all the value that this interview is putting out. The scariest thing about this is reality, no gimmicks no tattoos no plays just real as it is. The level of educational content is 100! Keep it up!
I really enjoy your channel, Herc. I've never been to jail or prison but I've treated a lot of prisoners, medically. I've been a paramedic with a fire department for 28 years. Some of the worst trauma I've seen has been from prison. It's a crying shame what people will do to each other. Thanks again for your effort.
From all these videos you've been putting up, I can say without a doubt in my mind that the first mistake a new prisoner makes is to think that the guards are there to protect him. They don't care about what goes on in the jungle, they're just there for the paycheck.
They won't show that just like they wont talk about guards beating the shit out of inmates. Its illegal as fuck but no way to prove it happens unless they admit it. Im sure by the book they have to let you go to the bathroom every couple hours or something but whos going to make them?
I'm an experienced mma practitioner, but I'm 9000% not built for this. I'd better hit my bag and solder my PCBs all my life than spend a week in there. Or even a day. Stay out of jail, people. Thank you, Big Herc.
Love it when y’all get together and, speak the reality of the going’s on in prison. If this doesn’t scare a person, I don’t know what would. Don’t do it!!!💯❤️✊🏾👏🏾🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
G-d Bless You Big Herc AND DJ Verrett...The stories y'all tell, to have lived through those realities? It's a fucking miracle what y'all are doing here on TH-cam today, pardon my language but THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing! I and I'm certain many, many people had no idea...EVERYBODY makes mistakes and to have to endure these realities y'all speak of, it's by the grace of G-d y'all are here to tell them! I don't feel that way about rapists or chomos, or cold-blooded murderers, HELL NO, but to y'all who've made honest mistakes? OMG I'm so sorry and I pray for all who have, there really needs to be a better way to rehabilitate people...
All my childhood friends in the feds and the state or dead. I seen this shit coming along time ago but we was caught up in the streets. Glad I made it out alive and free
Fresh Out. Do you have counseling for some of these brothers? I know that look in Ghost face. He isn't telling you something he remembers. His whole being goes back to that point and time.
I was actually looking through the comments to see if anyone else saw something in his face that wasn’t right. Glad I wasn’t the only one. But I do agree as well that there should be counseling for them regardless of being on camera or not. :)
What I love is how the views is low I check back it’s dam near almost half a million! Herc stays on the grind to keep us entertained and his business growing! I love it! Same with the new intro! The old one is a classic
damn u can tell how traumatizing prison was for him and everyone else i’m sure. everyone i’ve seen telling war stories always gets goosebumps in the middle of the story. it’s crazy how much i can visualize that experience.
The whole point of gangsta rap was to incarcerate as many black and brown individuals as possible! NWA was a boy band put together by the recording industry to make money and help the prison industrial complex reach their numbers! The man Ghost is spot on with this!!
hey Herc, any chance of bringing back Ghost for like catching up or what happened to his book or like any reason to bring him back on? thanks for all you do!
@@pauliedibbs9028 exactly! Couldnt imagine the shear anxiety you would have walking into one of those concrete jungles and not having any clue what is gonna happen besides horror stories you've been told.
It’s crazy that we got man talking about jail. And their are still young brothers wanting to go to jail. And they are not watching this. Crazy they are telling us what it like. And it like nobody listening but everyone watching. Crazy.
I was 19 and the prison used a body belt, big leather one and hand cuffed at the sides, I spent 7 days in this belt, I did get my hand free just bored they released to eat I think so ......
I hope one day we can create the reality that doesn't force people through such diabolical meat grinders. Thank you for sharing these brutal realities. Much respect, men.
It isn't necessarily "us" that are behind the fundamental targeting, in which specific groups of people - usually in their youth these days - are being brainwashed and exploited... to either live in fear, or try to mimic what they see as being "G" ... I have spoken to some hardcore cats from Oakland to Chicago all the way to the Brooklyn and Queens. Strangely enough, they all said the same thing... *"It was almost like somebody just dropped off a shit load of guns in the hood one day... Once that happened, all hell broke loose."*
I could listen to ghost tell his stories all day bcuz he's a real dude did his time n came home these youngstaz could learn sum from these 2 guyz peace n blessings brothas
Ok. I haven’t heard this discussed, but since the subject of racial segregation was brought up, how were people of mixed races treated by other inmates ?
I swear.. There could be a channel *JUST* for Ghost and Herc alone. You guys are not only personally experienced, but both have a way of speaking to those who are street educated, and those who are not. With the utmost respect and love; you are appreciated and very much needed these days..

Well said

Without a doubt the best guest you’ve had on your show Herc. Much appreciation to Ghost for sharing his trials.
Yeah Ghost is straight up ..some other ones he had embellish some of their stories and act hard.
co-sign
I went and grabbed his book on `audible as I had 2 credits 🙏🏻
I also like Boo..the cat with the white hat..
Yes agree 100%
Props to DJ for speaking on this. It seemed like it wasn’t easy on him to go back into those memories but he toughed it out. Much respect.
I'm a C/O in Indiana, I love watching your show. It helps me get my mind right going and coming from work. Dudes need to wake up when it come to that line of work
Keep doing what you do, need to see more vid9
How to know when a riot is about to jump off: The Mexican got on boots 👀
Everybody has there boot's on in a USP. It's mandatory especially for white's and sureno's.
Love that dude. Good reference!
Lol ain't no Mexicans in my city bruh bruh.
@@justsaying2417 Look up Ali Siddiq - Prison Riot. You will then understand.
😂😂😂😂😂 Ali lmao
Make this man a regular on the show, Herc. You two are amazing.
Bro you can really see the goosebumps on his arms when told the basketball court story. As a man I can say I'm not cut for that shit.
straight up warrior, crazy to hear first hand stories from people who made out of the prison system and made something of themselves. Respect to both of these men, teaching me more than my own father did.
Every man can be a dad but not every man can be a father.
This just sounds absolutely crazy. I will FOREVER choose to walk the straight and narrow, before I do something to subject myself to this kind of stuff!
We got one life to live. Stay free bruh!!!!

With out a doubt Your best guest … This man can speak and knows how to tell a story
Man anytime ghost is on here I’m gonna tune in. I owe that man a lot. You never know what someone’s words can do for your life if you take them and start to bring them to life
Wow, just simply wow. DJ is one of his best interviews.
Ohhh this new intro is 🔥🔥🔥
Jessica I love you!!! Hope you and your family are doing well! ))
Your face is 🔥😍🤷🏻♂️
I’m just a normal person must be nice
@@fullarmorofgod8270 troll
Hell yes he gonna earn sum ,,$
Young people have no idea what is waiting for them. Thank you all for keeping it real. You may have already helped many avoid prison.

Never hit that like button so fast....
Keep spittin that truth Big Herc!!

“500 or 60 seconds?” Powerful, no lacking
“So I just knocked the 500 push ups out”. 😂😂.
Yeeea it must've been some pretty big dudes waiting for him to choose the 60 seconds.! He might b crazy but he's no fool.!!
Already been said but this man, DJ, is one of your best guests. Preciate y’all
Peace.
This is the best interview, Ghost is for real.
If this interview doesn’t deter you from staying out of trouble, I don’t know what will
From all these videos you've been putting up, I can say without a doubt in my mind that the first mistake a new prisoner makes is to think that the guards are there to protect him. They don't care about what goes on in the jungle, they're just there for the paycheck.
I think they do there job to the best of there ability honest the officers in UK nearly 2 decades incarcerated
This man is an inspiration and should be preaching to the kids! God bless you men!
The laying in your own feces for three days story is what they need in the scared straight program.
They won't show that just like they wont talk about guards beating the shit out of inmates. Its illegal as fuck but no way to prove it happens unless they admit it. Im sure by the book they have to let you go to the bathroom every couple hours or something but whos going to make them?
Blood raw, no wasted energy from this man! 💯
amazing interview....thanks for sharing. More young people need to hear this....
This guy tells some of the best stories
DJ Verret, you're the man! Your story from earlier video's is true inspirational...
I'm an experienced mma practitioner, but I'm 9000% not built for this. I'd better hit my bag and solder my PCBs all my life than spend a week in there. Or even a day. Stay out of jail, people. Thank you, Big Herc.

One of my all time favorite episodes. Much love and respect ✊🏼
Man as a skinny withe dude living in Switzerland this shit is just so far away. I wouldn't survive a fucking minute there
Not with that attitude. The mind is the most powerful weapon you possess.
Awesome show. Thanks for sharing and there needs to be reform and programs that can prevent recidivism. May we all heal and be well.
These young mfs excuse my language but these young mfs 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This brings tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing your pain. I hope it saves a life.
All my childhood friends in the feds and the state or dead. I seen this shit coming along time ago but we was caught up in the streets. Glad I made it out alive and free
God bless Bronx Love 183.

The choices you make, not the chances you take, determine your destiny
Man... KEEP bringing this man on the show Herc! 🙏
I LITERALLY just finished watching the one on the sagging of the pants "GOOD INTERVIEW" looking forward for the book 📖 👍🏾
Thanks for what you do guys! Modern day heroes.
Ghost, Mz Huntsman and Bounce Back B are the best guests. Actually all your guests are awesome. Keep it up!
This is the stuff the young need to hear ,
Tears dropped down my face hearing this one. Very sad reality.
Ghost is very refined man, I applaud you broz...and I'm glad you made it and doing good...I'm def going to look inton the book man
What I love is how the views is low I check back it’s dam near almost half a million! Herc stays on the grind to keep us entertained and his business growing! I love it!
Same with the new intro! The old one is a classic
I love Ghost interviews
I have goose bumps listening to this, wow. Crazy man.
Another great interview.
damn u can tell how traumatizing prison was for him and everyone else i’m sure. everyone i’ve seen telling war stories always gets goosebumps in the middle of the story. it’s crazy how much i can visualize that experience.
Appreciate you lacing me up much love big hurt 👍🏿💪🏿💯
"The Mesicans are wearing their boots' Lol
Ghost is a true Gladiator ⚔️

Thank you Thank you.
Love and respect.🙏🤙✌
To anybody watching this, DJ's book/audio book is dope!
For sure best guest and knowledgeable man. Invite him back for more interviews
Thanks for sharing your insights and experience.
hey Herc, any chance of bringing back Ghost for like catching up or what happened to his book or like any reason to bring him back on? thanks for all you do!
Keep Ghost coming 💯
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Ass interview keep up the good work Herc.
5:57 I cracked up laughing because he just cut him off lmao
Bless up! Horrific abuses. 🙏🏿❤️🇬🇧
Damn he had that look when he said Lompoc and his hands were fidgeting and seemed like he had some real PTSD from those days.
That was a life of death situation
Try to think of a worse situation to be in, other than going to a Federal Level Prison for your very first time...?
@@pauliedibbs9028 exactly! Couldnt imagine the shear anxiety you would have walking into one of those concrete jungles and not having any clue what is gonna happen besides horror stories you've been told.
I can’t imagine what a riot is like
From the words of Big Herc himself...
*"It's some medieval shit!"*
Ghost good to see u survived tjat shit and lifes good for you now. Respect from Australia OOOG!
DJ is my favorite interview on PT!
Man the US prison system is messed up
Thank you for sharing your stories Big Herc and Ghost.
he caught goosebumps just off the recap , u know he aint fronting
Easily one of the best guys you've had on
This is nightmare fuel. Never take your freedom for granted.
It’s crazy that we got man talking about jail. And their are still young brothers wanting to go to jail. And they are not watching this. Crazy they are telling us what it like. And it like nobody listening but everyone watching. Crazy.

My man gives some bomb interviews.
You can feel it. Deepest cut on the channel
My favorite fresh out interview hands down

It's reality right now in most developed countries!
Yo big Herc.....this was another cold-a** episode. DJ was droppin some serious sh**. That western guitar sample woulda been perfect for this one.
love you big herc keep it up during these times
The worst torture is the no-consent cheek busting!
Dope interview as usual Big Herc..
Big Herc struggling at 1:16, by almost saying busting cheeks instead of M16s 😂
He wasting thinking of mini-14s but he's way off.
Jesus this dude is messed up bad from prison. I hope he is able to get right in time.
I could listen to ghost tell his stories all day bcuz he's a real dude did his time n came home these youngstaz could learn sum from these 2 guyz peace n blessings brothas
You can tell he’s traumatized by this. It took him awhile to get into it.
Enjoy when this Brotha on. Good ish. RESPECT 💐✊🏾✌🏾
I'm loving these interviews
“He’s a big dude rightttt”
Arguably my favorite guest
This guy is a world class story teller. Could listen to him read the phone book and dig it
This guy can tell a Hell of a story.
Don't know how Netflix or Amazon haven't picked this up
This is wild. Very difficult to comprehend the insanity of the violence in there. What they saying is literally how it is. Insane.
Information incredible brothers keep spreading the word.
