I love this PODCAST so much ! Especially when your Grandpa talks about how to raise your children, I was raised the same way and it worked 😂 The world nowadays just raises soft kids wrapped in Bubble Wrap ! MUCH LOVE FROM THE UK ❤
Your granpa's love for her & his ability to provide everything she wanted is what helped her survive 6 years after a Stage 4 diagnosis. His love for her & her love for all of you combined with her upbeat outlook on life made all the difference. When I was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer my Oncologist was more worried about the fact that I was in an abusive marriage than he was about anything else. He said for most people stress feeds cancer. It's what can cause it to begin & keeps it growing. I had JUST gone into remission when our daughter lost her leg to an aggressive form of Type 1 diabetes. Nobody in the family survived more than a year after that. And while she was only 33 & we knew she would never see 40, her cardiovascular system was so aged by the disease that she had the cardiovascular system of a 73 year old when she lost her leg. My Oncologist found out & called me all the time to check on me. He was so scared for me. But we turned it into a positive & as a nurse I helped her get all her Living Will & DNR on file. And her uncle is a mortician, he not only helped her plan, he did everything himself because he pinky promised her he would.
I just adore your grandfather! My dads dad lived to 104 and he had the BEST stories and lessons! Even at 104, he could still remember his income from his very first job and the cost of pretty much everything through the years! What a wonderful podcast to always have for years to come!
I’ve only just started watching and I’m already holding back tears. My Parents were married 55 years, together 57. We lost my mum last week at only 73 years old. I’m devastated but my poor Dad is totally heartbroken, it’s almost harder watching him trying to navigate his grief when mum was all he had through his whole teenage and adult life 💔 xx
Omg I am so sorry for your loss. Reading your comment broke my heart. I hope your dad is ok and of course you and your family as well. I will definitely keep you all in my prayers ❤
I absolutely LOVED this episode! Your grandfather is cut from the same cloth as my dad. I laughed & teared up throughout. When you were talking about being with your dad, it brought me back to being with Dad as he passed. Hardest thing I ever did but a time I will forever cherish. ❤ Thank you so much for sharing with us. It was a blessing. 🥰
@CJFaison I am just listening to your vlogs. I lost my mom on 10/31/2021 to Pancreatic cancer. She was diagnosed in Dec 2017 while helping me learn to walk again after a botched surgery. They told her she would have 3 months to live, and she fought for almost 4 years. When she went to hospice 10/26/2021, she held on for 5 days. Every time we thought it was the day she kept going. She would acknowledge us when we told her we loved her even tho she was sedated. She reached up and hugged my dad the day before she passed. That day, I said all the things, told her I loved her, and said my good yes she sat up and reached out her arms and smiled. We believe she saw her grandparents and her aunt and joined them. When she laid back down, she shed 1 single tear and then didn't react to anything after that. She passed away that next morning at 11:26am. It was the scariest, craziest but most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed, and I will never forget it. I'm sorry for the loss of your Father, but I know he is with you, and watching over you always ❤🥰🙏🏻.
I adore your grandfather!!!! Awww I call my grandma Mimi too!!!! This conversation is literally making my heart ,eyes tear up, and butterflies in my stomach! Such a handsome man inside and out, I see how his soul has trickled down the line to you. It's so funny, your Grandpa owned 3 airplanes. My papa also had a plane You're truly blessed to have a hard working, loving , tight nit family!!! I had a similar up bringing but I was raised by my southern grand parents and they were big in the real estate business, and my papa was a professor at Loma Linda university medical center for about 40 years, married to my Mimi for 47 years before he passed from having a stroke then a heart attack which left him having triple bypass surgery, he was good for a about a week then he stroked out again and was coma toast.😭😭😭 my Mimi pulled him from the hospital and put him in a hospice home where he only lasted 4 days... i was the last one to see him .I will never forget the feeling of him letting me know he passed 2 hours after I saw him... 2 days after hin passing, while I was sleeping, I had like this out of body experience where my papa took me to this dinner and it was alllll my family that wereI adore your grandfather!!!!

Hi CJ, I really enjoyed this podcast with your Grandad! He is a very smart, insightful, and humorous man with great stories and a wonderful life that he has lived to the fullest! It's really nice to see how close you two are and I'm sure you know how lucky you are to have him as your Grandfather! Much Love ❤
CJ, this video made me cry. I just lost my mom to Cancer; in August 3rd. She was diagnosed with stage 4 Brest cancer in April. I went to every appointment she had. What good interview. Love your grandfather.
ABSOLUTELY love listening to your Grandpa! !! I still remember you taking him in the woods for an investigation!! We can learn so much from our elders!!! THANK YOU for sharing this!! Consequences, personal responsibility, work ethics, morals, respect for self and others!!! He’s a very wise man Cj…I ALWAYS tell ya your father left you more riches that money can’t buy!! Love this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ok ok... I'm bawlin like a foolish old woman... That man is absolutely a treasure. People need to learn to cherish these incredible folks before it's too late. Their wisdom and experience is absolutely gold. Thank you for bringing us this lovely human and his story. I am so thrilled to have had the opportunity to hear this. Oh to have been loved like the way they loved... His emotion at outliving his son... I understand... I outlived my 33 year old daughter because of cancer. Gods blessings sir, and many prayers .Thank you for your service, and thank you for sharing. Just incredible.
I just finished watching this podcast and out of all your videos, I would have to say this is the one that touched me the most. The obvious love and respect you and your grandfather have for each other, is an inspiration to anyone. I cried and laughed for the whole thing. You are so blessed to still have him in your life. Much love from one of your Aussie fams xoxo 😘
I love your pop pop. My dad is 82 and just listening to you and him brought tears to my eyes. My parents are married for 63 years and i totally understand. God bless your pop pop and keep enjoying the time you have with him. Life is too short. Much love from NJ.
CJ, I watched this on my tv when you first posted it. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!🥰 Your grandpa is such a WISE, SWEET, HUMBLE man!! I just love him! When I first saw him & what a trooper he was (even though it was past his bedtime 😂), on his first TH-cam video with you where he went into the woods with you..I knew right then you 2 had a special relationship! It was so cute! And then him riding along with you in that little imported vehicle 🤣 That was a hoot!😆 But this podcast was full of everything…love, laughter, tears, encouragement & the PRIDE he feels being your grandpa ❤I loved hearing all the stories. This was so very interesting & I loved every bit of it!!! 🥰 Great job to the 3 of you for this video! Thank you! What a blessing to have been able to do this together🥰 What a blessing to have each other in your lives & what a blessing to have such an amazing man to look up to with such great advice! The love he had for your grandma was just BEAUTIFUL! What a great generation of 3 men….your grandpa, your dad & you CJ!❤ I will be watching this again☺️ Much love from a big fan in Michigan ✋♥️
What a treasure to have these conversations recorded. That generation was a different breed and their stories are the best. Thank you for sharing with us. I look forward to the next conversation!
Wow!!!! What a beautiful podcast ❤️🙏 I totally see where you get a lot of your mannerisms and ethics from CJ 😎 Your Grandfather is such a joy to listen to and the Love he has to give is absolutely incredible,The way he spoke about your Grandmother and how he took care of her was so emotional 🥹 I highly doubt you would see that much dedication today right down to telling the nurse and dr that he would put her bandage on because he would wash his hands in the hottest of water so she would not get any rashes or infections…I actually cried because that there is the definition of not only true Love but everlasting Love,The entire podcast was absolutely amazing 🙏 I could have watched another two hours of you both reminiscing about your father and your entire family.Its so nice to see that you can share so much of your life with all of us (your second family) This touched me so deep and I can’t Thank you enough for sharing 🙏 You are blessed beyond words,I know I don’t know your grandfather but if you can remember do me a BIG favor and just give him a hug from me (Katie) I know that’s probably the last thing you will be thinking about when you see him but I just thought I’d try lol❤Much Love to you and your family ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you again this was beautiful! Stay safe
Cj, this may have been the best video I've ever seen you post! I've been watching you for several years now, and I don't comment often, but your admiration and love for your family can be felt every time they are shared in your videos. Thank you for what you do, and thanks for letting us be a small part of your family. I laughed and cried through the whole episode. You are truly one of a kind. THANK YOU!
This comment right here means so much to me, thank you!!! 🙏🏻 I’m so glad you enjoyed the conversation and I really appreciate you watching me for years
This has been one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. You three are amazing. Your GrandDad is amazing I’ve been so glued to this. Thank you so very much for doing this. Please have a great safe evening. It’s 4:13 in Ohio.
This is the best interview I've seen so far CJ! Absolutely adored listening to your grandfather talk about you, his life, and more. It is always so interesting to hear the perspective of an older generation. My grandparents were married I think I was sixty some years before my grandma passed away just shy of her 90th. Cancer also took my grandma's life, she had a rare form of blood cancer. My grandparents were born in the 30s and I still kick myself for not talking to my grandma more about her childhood. Absolutely love our older generation, they are true warriors and so much more for what they have lived through. Thank you CJ, Chris, Ron Sr for sharing this podcast! I hope you have your grandfather on again, bring your mom too!
The Best conversation..always remember everything Grandpa says I missed talking about old times...Ok, so on your wedding night was you nervous???? Love it
I loved this sit down with your Grandfather. I laughed and I shed A few tears. I was raised to know actions have consequences and tried to raise my 6 boys the same way.I realize my only daughter is a mini me.
I am sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in 2008 to Cancer. The doctor gave my mom 8 months and she died a year later. My mom was the rock in my family. I miss her every day 😞
Just watched this podcast, very moving, and stirred up a lot of emotions. We have had similar experiences. The only difference being, after my mom's biopsy, the Dr. Left the hospital for the day, and left me to tell my mom that she had stage four, inoperable, incurable lung cancer and only had six months to live. My mom also waited for me to tell her I would be ok, and when she was ready it was ok to go, within a minute, she was gone.
Oh My Gosh! I Love Your Grandad! ❤️ What a beautiful person. I have always enjoyed watching you in your videos because you are so articulate and well-spoken. It just shows an heir of intelegance and grace. Your Grandad is a very well polished version of you! This podcast was a huge window inside the soul of CJ Faison and how you reached such intelegance at such a young age. You have come from generations of intelegant men. To see the same spark, I enjoy so much in your personality coming from your grandad was endearing. This same spark was in your father's personality, too. All of you are wise beyond years, and it was obvious in this podcast why all the Faison men have succeeded. Then there is your Mom, and from the sound of it, your Mimi too who created the fun-loving side of you. Your girl Chelsea is so much like your mom, too. It's insane. You need to do more videos with both your Mom and Chelsea together. Thank you for including us on this look into your personal life. It was such a wonderful journey tonight that I almost wish it hadn't ended. You already know that you are on to greatness in life. Be more careful when choosing to do things where you say, "I don't know if this is a good idea!" The world is a better place because you are in it to thousands of fans. To lose you would be a catastrophe !!! Much love from Northwestern Pennsylvania ❤!!
One strong grandfather. Loved listening to them, their stories, life experiences, lovelife, can really learned alot.. To those still have their grandparents love, enjoy, make time, be with them.. BIG LOVE! Very well said.. About cancer. So relatable, heartbreaking.. 💙🖤💔 Great vlog/podcast..
Best podcast ever. I laughed, I cried. When it was over I had the biggest smile of all time. Can't wait for another podcast with grandad. He is an awesome man.
I could sit and listen to your grandad talk for hours ❤ he's so sweet and special, cherish him!❤ you were blessed with one of the good ones ❣️🙏 my prayers and condolences to you and your grandad on the loss of your father and his son. 🙏
This is the best episode yet. It's only the second time I've seen your grandfather. I'm 71, so I know where he's coming from. I really enjoyed watching this video. I could listen to him for hours. Wish I could actually meet him some day. But I can't travel for my health is too bad. I've been disabled for over 35 years.
CJ, out of both of your channels and all of your videos, this is by far my favorite video!!!! I hope you are able to do more podcasts with your grandfather! Cherish every moment you get to spend with your family!!!!!!
Hearing both ur cancer stories brought it all back my boy got cancer at 4 years old it was in his face nearly stage 4 it was creeping up to his brain He had lots of treatments in the uk but going to America to have proton beam therapy saved his life he is now 6 years in remission so I know exactly how u all was going through just my boy was one of the lucky ones R I P to ur grandma and dad 🇬🇧❤️xxxx
I loved this episode so much. Oh how I miss my grandfather. Loved hearing a little about him being in the military, I too started in computer in the military till I moved on to paralegal my last three years I was in. Hope your grandad can come on again and hear more about his time in the service.
So glad we got to see n learn more about Grandad today!! I'm the female version of him! I brought my kids up exactly the same as he did! Like him, I'm so proud of the wondferful decent, productive adults they've become! He is truly a rare breed these days and a perfect example of a fine gentleman!! God bless you all. 💖
This was one of a kind CJ..thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing this..I know we all shed some tears..much love to you and your family❤.. I lost my mom 14 years ago..she had 3 different types of cancer in her life and beat every one but died from a brain aneurysm that she didn’t even know she had. Felt like a slap in the face!
The same thing happened to my dad when he was going to pass. I was in his room and I told him that it was okay to go, then my sister came after me as we lived in different cities. She told him the same thing and I wasn't aware she did that after me. That morning on New Year's Eve, he passed away. He didn't want us there when he passed. I am so empathetic but it's harder when they pass before their time. I'm so sorry for your loss, as it's always, in my mind, still a hard time to remember how it happens. You have an amazing family.
This is an amazing interview and I'm only 30 minutes in so far. I'm very emotional. You are One of my favorite TH-camrs. Thank you for sharing this with us. I know how hard this must have been to share this.
My husband and I were together 31 yrs. Found out in 2018 he had cancer, he fought two yrs and I lost him in 2020. I could relate to your grandfather when he was talking about your grandmother. Love the videos.....
Thank you Sir for your frank and open interview with CJ and Chris. Clearly you have been a wonderful guiding light for your family and by your example, your legacy has been instilled in them and no doubt, will continue onward. A solid role model is worthy of imitation.
I would love to see your grandfather come back on here. I enjoyed hearing his stories and your story as well, cj, and I'm sorry for the loss of your dad. My grandpa is fighting cancer, and he has 6 months to a year and I call him every day and talk to him he is 79 years old. I also had an uncle who passed away with cancer back in 2020 he had it for 25 years. Cancer sucks
Wow what a great interview with your grandpa. I've learned so much more about you CJ and your family. I'm glad you shared the experience with your dad. 😢 At least you got to say goodbye. ❤Thanks for asking my question.. that was a good memory..😊 That was funny him talking a pit chris in the rally truck 😂 Would love see another one of these with someone else in your family.
I about LOST it when Chris asked Ron what changed in the day to day dynamic and he responded "Anything she wanted... she got." You can tell just by his words, that he devoted his life to his wife. So wholesome ❤
Definitely would love to see your grand dad back on. Loved hearing you two talk. Made me cry 4 times with some beautiful touching stories. My question for him would be how he handles being without Lucy? I’m a widow also and it’s hard. I’m still trying to figure out my days without my husband. Thank you for such a wonderful podcast ❤
I love watching the dynamics between you and your grandfather. It made me remember the relationship between me and my grandma. I would love to see you two reminiscing again.
Loved this podcast best one yet. CJ learn and ask questions as many as you can, that's alot of regrets people have. I was raised exactly how your GPA was and taught them the same way
Omg ur grandad is the most sweetest genuine funniest young man. Had me in tears when he said ‘anything she wanted ‘. What a legend. Ur sooooo much like him and ur dad much respect. Love from London uk 🇬🇧❤️❤️xxxx
Your Grandfather is the best. I loved watching your Father when he did his cooking videos and now I see where you and your Father get it from. Your family is the best. I have so much respect for all of you.
CJ I absolutely loved this podcast I could listen to Grandad talk all day reminds me of the good days since most of my family has moved on to better pastures ❤❤❤
What a lovely man your grandad is. I lost both grannys at age 10 and both grandads at 15. We lost my mother in law 2 years ago to stomach cancer that came back for a second time she was given 6 weeks to live lost her at 5 weeks. My dad is 78 and living with prostate cancer him and mum have been married 55 years.
Hey CJ this was the best video you've ever posted. I cried, I laughed it was awesome. What a special moment thank you for sharing this with all of us. Your grandfather is hilarious and very precious. Much love and hugs from SOUTHEAST TEXAS ❤️🤗
Just got done watching. This was perfect. I love your Grandad. He reminds me so much of my Grandpa Jack. When you talk to him, you can see and hear the respect you guys have for one another. I lived watching this. I honestly think you should do more like this. Grandad is an amazing man. I cried when he was talking about Mimi. You could see and hear the love in his voice. Thank you, CJ. Much Love 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
that was a very awesome story that your grandad told he is si awesome i like his story telling and yall are so awesome thanks for the great podcast take care
This is the greatest video it was hard trying not to cry I love your grandfather I could sit and hear his stories all day every day you all are special sending love to you all stay safe
YES please get him back on, I don't know much about you CJ apart from the paranormal, rando and about you winning the dedicated race for your late father, but I have to say that after listening to this pod cast I love your granddad! He's awesome and I do love the old school way of thinking, The reason I have been trying to ask you about your racing is cos you must of heard of the TT races? or The Manx Grand pre? TT stands for Tourist Trophy, so you could easily do it or is bikes that literally when your on them and go round a bend!! man I'm not joking but my hair was touching the floor and it is very dangerous but please get back to me about this cos I'm dying to know if you have heard about it, I could and would send you things that you can't get, but back to your lovely granddad, I started watching and at first I was crying and laughing at the same time, but this has made me love your granddad, now I don't have anything to offer as I'm broke so on the off chance he's looking for a "sugarless Mama" then give me a shout cos he's the man and I think he's great really CJ your very lucky cos I used to have to work for a neighbor just so I could eat the scrap's from their plates before I washed them, and I didn't tell you that so you would feel sorry for me but to show you just how lucky you are to have a Family that loves you, look after each other and keep having each other's backs.

You get a 👍 just for your Grandad. Respect from here. What changes he’s personally witnessed, is dumbfounding. I’m 50 at Xmas. Even I’ve watched it all . All the best to the big man 👍👍
I love this PODCAST so much ! Especially when your Grandpa talks about how to raise your children, I was raised the same way and it worked 😂 The world nowadays just raises soft kids wrapped in Bubble Wrap ! MUCH LOVE FROM THE UK ❤

So sorry for your loss. I know it's heart breaking to lose your mom. My mom passed away 5 years ago a week before mother's day..
Sorry for your loss
I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. It has been 4 years since I lost my Mom. I still think of her every day. I miss her so much. Take care😢😢

Aww the memories you talked about your dad made in tears 😢

When I first saw him & what a trooper he was (even though it was past his bedtime 😂), on his first TH-cam video with you where he went into the woods with you..I knew right then you 2 had a special relationship! It was so cute! And then him riding along with you in that little imported vehicle 🤣 That was a hoot!😆 But this podcast was full of everything…love, laughter, tears, encouragement & the PRIDE he feels being your grandpa ❤I loved hearing all the stories. This was so very interesting & I loved every bit of it!!! 🥰 Great job to the 3 of you for this video! Thank you! What a blessing to have been able to do this together🥰 What a blessing to have each other in your lives & what a blessing to have such an amazing man to look up to with such great advice! The love he had for your grandma was just BEAUTIFUL! What a great generation of 3 men….your grandpa, your dad & you CJ!❤ I will be watching this again☺️ Much love from a big fan in Michigan ✋♥️
What a treasure to have these conversations recorded. That generation was a different breed and their stories are the best. Thank you for sharing with us. I look forward to the next conversation!
Last night and tonight awesome. Now to watch this. From England U.K.
Wow!!!! What a beautiful podcast ❤️🙏 I totally see where you get a lot of your mannerisms and ethics from CJ 😎 Your Grandfather is such a joy to listen to and the Love he has to give is absolutely incredible,The way he spoke about your Grandmother and how he took care of her was so emotional 🥹 I highly doubt you would see that much dedication today right down to telling the nurse and dr that he would put her bandage on because he would wash his hands in the hottest of water so she would not get any rashes or infections…I actually cried because that there is the definition of not only true Love but everlasting Love,The entire podcast was absolutely amazing 🙏 I could have watched another two hours of you both reminiscing about your father and your entire family.Its so nice to see that you can share so much of your life with all of us (your second family) This touched me so deep and I can’t Thank you enough for sharing 🙏 You are blessed beyond words,I know I don’t know your grandfather but if you can remember do me a BIG favor and just give him a hug from me (Katie) I know that’s probably the last thing you will be thinking about when you see him but I just thought I’d try lol❤Much Love to you and your family ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you again this was beautiful! Stay safe
Cj, this may have been the best video I've ever seen you post! I've been watching you for several years now, and I don't comment often, but your admiration and love for your family can be felt every time they are shared in your videos. Thank you for what you do, and thanks for letting us be a small part of your family. I laughed and cried through the whole episode. You are truly one of a kind. THANK YOU!
This comment right here means so much to me, thank you!!! 🙏🏻 I’m so glad you enjoyed the conversation and I really appreciate you watching me for years
This has been one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen. You three are amazing. Your GrandDad is amazing I’ve been so glued to this. Thank you so very much for doing this. Please have a great safe evening. It’s 4:13 in Ohio.
I love your grandfather he is funny love his stories I was born in 1956 how times have changed 😊🙏🙏🙏💖🇦🇺
This is the best interview I've seen so far CJ! Absolutely adored listening to your grandfather talk about you, his life, and more. It is always so interesting to hear the perspective of an older generation. My grandparents were married I think I was sixty some years before my grandma passed away just shy of her 90th. Cancer also took my grandma's life, she had a rare form of blood cancer. My grandparents were born in the 30s and I still kick myself for not talking to my grandma more about her childhood. Absolutely love our older generation, they are true warriors and so much more for what they have lived through.
Thank you CJ, Chris, Ron Sr for sharing this podcast! I hope you have your grandfather on again, bring your mom too!
The Best conversation..always remember everything Grandpa says I missed talking about old times...Ok, so on your wedding night was you nervous???? Love it
I loved this sit down with your Grandfather. I laughed and I shed A few tears. I was raised to know actions have consequences and tried to raise my 6 boys the same way.I realize my only daughter is a mini me.
I am sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in 2008 to Cancer. The doctor gave my mom 8 months and she died a year later. My mom was the rock in my family. I miss her every day 😞
Just watched this podcast, very moving, and stirred up a lot of emotions. We have had similar experiences. The only difference being, after my mom's biopsy, the Dr. Left the hospital for the day, and left me to tell my mom that she had stage four, inoperable, incurable lung cancer and only had six months to live. My mom also waited for me to tell her I would be ok, and when she was ready it was ok to go, within a minute, she was gone.
Oh My Gosh! I Love Your Grandad! ❤️ What a beautiful person. I have always enjoyed watching you in your videos because you are so articulate and well-spoken. It just shows an heir of intelegance and grace. Your Grandad is a very well polished version of you! This podcast was a huge window inside the soul of CJ Faison and how you reached such intelegance at such a young age. You have come from generations of intelegant men. To see the same spark, I enjoy so much in your personality coming from your grandad was endearing. This same spark was in your father's personality, too. All of you are wise beyond years, and it was obvious in this podcast why all the Faison men have succeeded. Then there is your Mom, and from the sound of it, your Mimi too who created the fun-loving side of you. Your girl Chelsea is so much like your mom, too. It's insane. You need to do more videos with both your Mom and Chelsea together. Thank you for including us on this look into your personal life. It was such a wonderful journey tonight that I almost wish it hadn't ended. You already know that you are on to greatness in life. Be more careful when choosing to do things where you say, "I don't know if this is a good idea!" The world is a better place because you are in it to thousands of fans. To lose you would be a catastrophe !!! Much love from Northwestern Pennsylvania ❤!!
I loved this Podcast. Your Grandfather is awesome. He reminds me of my own Grandfather. Full of love and very proud of his Family. AWESOME!
Thank you for your service. He is awesome, love your grandfather
One strong grandfather. Loved listening to them, their stories, life experiences, lovelife, can really learned alot..
To those still have their grandparents love, enjoy, make time, be with them..
BIG LOVE! Very well said..
About cancer. So relatable, heartbreaking.. 💙🖤💔
Great vlog/podcast..
Best podcast ever. I laughed, I cried. When it was over I had the biggest smile of all time. Can't wait for another podcast with grandad. He is an awesome man.
this is so awesome my dad was a auctioneer for 40 years in North Carolina and my parents were married for almost 60 years CJ this was awesome ❤❤❤
I really enjoyed this. I love your grandpa. He's fun.
I could sit and listen to your grandad talk for hours ❤ he's so sweet and special, cherish him!❤ you were blessed with one of the good ones ❣️🙏 my prayers and condolences to you and your grandad on the loss of your father and his son. 🙏
I lost my brother to cancer 5 years ago, it hurts still😢
This is the best episode yet. It's only the second time I've seen your grandfather. I'm 71, so I know where he's coming from. I really enjoyed watching this video. I could listen to him for hours. Wish I could actually meet him some day. But I can't travel for my health is too bad. I've been disabled for over 35 years.
CJ, out of both of your channels and all of your videos, this is by far my favorite video!!!! I hope you are able to do more podcasts with your grandfather! Cherish every moment you get to spend with your family!!!!!!
God i would love to have my grandpa around thank to that young man for his service much love to any and all that serve
Hi hi CJ I m here I m so excited to watching your video and much love to you CJ ❤️❤️😘 you are the best CJ ❤️
Hearing both ur cancer stories brought it all back my boy got cancer at 4 years old it was in his face nearly stage 4 it was creeping up to his brain He had lots of treatments in the uk but going to America to have proton beam therapy saved his life he is now 6 years in remission so I know exactly how u all was going through just my boy was one of the lucky ones R I P to ur grandma and dad 🇬🇧❤️xxxx
Not far into this and my heart is bursting with sadness such a beautiful and heartfelt message. Much love from Arkansas ❤️❤️
I loved this episode so much. Oh how I miss my grandfather. Loved hearing a little about him being in the military, I too started in computer in the military till I moved on to paralegal my last three years I was in. Hope your grandad can come on again and hear more about his time in the service.
So glad we got to see n learn more about Grandad today!! I'm the female version of him! I brought my kids up exactly the same as he did! Like him, I'm so proud of the wondferful decent, productive adults they've become! He is truly a rare breed these days and a perfect example of a fine gentleman!! God bless you all. 💖
This was one of a kind CJ..thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing this..I know we all shed some tears..much love to you and your family❤..
I lost my mom 14 years ago..she had 3 different types of cancer in her life and beat every one but died from a brain aneurysm that she didn’t even know she had. Felt like a slap in the face!
Your grandad is an amazing man. Stay safe all of you. From England UK
The same thing happened to my dad when he was going to pass. I was in his room and I told him that it was okay to go, then my sister came after me as we lived in different cities. She told him the same thing and I wasn't aware she did that after me. That morning on New Year's Eve, he passed away. He didn't want us there when he passed. I am so empathetic but it's harder when they pass before their time. I'm so sorry for your loss, as it's always, in my mind, still a hard time to remember how it happens. You have an amazing family.
God bless the family rest in peace 💯♥️
This is an amazing interview and I'm only 30 minutes in so far. I'm very emotional. You are One of my favorite TH-camrs. Thank you for sharing this with us. I know how hard this must have been to share this.
My husband and I were together 31 yrs. Found out in 2018 he had cancer, he fought two yrs and I lost him in 2020. I could relate to your grandfather when he was talking about your grandmother. Love the videos.....
Watching with tears in my eyes. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thank you Sir for your frank and open interview with CJ and Chris. Clearly you have been a wonderful guiding light for your family and by your example, your legacy has been instilled in them and no doubt, will continue onward. A solid role model is worthy of imitation.
I would love to see your grandfather come back on here. I enjoyed hearing his stories and your story as well, cj, and I'm sorry for the loss of your dad. My grandpa is fighting cancer, and he has 6 months to a year and I call him every day and talk to him he is 79 years old. I also had an uncle who passed away with cancer back in 2020 he had it for 25 years. Cancer sucks
What a lovely video CJ, thank you for sharing, nice to see you all, take care, much love xx UK 🇬🇧 🎃👻
Mr.Faison thank you for being so honest with your heartfelt memories of your wife and son
So much knowledge ❤🙌🫶 I'd love to sit on the old porch swing and chat with him about the good old days ❤
Wow what a great interview with your grandpa. I've learned so much more about you CJ and your family. I'm glad you shared the experience with your dad. 😢 At least you got to say goodbye.
❤Thanks for asking my question.. that was a good memory..😊
That was funny him talking a pit chris in the rally truck 😂
Would love see another one of these with someone else in your family.
I can’t believe I missed this! Your grandpa is great, and I loved this podcast of beautiful memories and sage advice.
I about LOST it when Chris asked Ron what changed in the day to day dynamic and he responded "Anything she wanted... she got." You can tell just by his words, that he devoted his life to his wife. So wholesome ❤
I did lose it. There could never be a more beautiful heart felt loving answer.
absolutely want more !!!! i would like to ask him" what is one thing about CJ that people don't know but you wish they did??"
Definitely would love to see your grand dad back on. Loved hearing you two talk. Made me cry 4 times with some beautiful touching stories. My question for him would be how he handles being without Lucy? I’m a widow also and it’s hard. I’m still trying to figure out my days without my husband.
Thank you for such a wonderful podcast ❤
This is so special! ❤
I love watching the dynamics between you and your grandfather. It made me remember the relationship between me and my grandma. I would love to see you two reminiscing again.
I love your dad's accent I can listen to him all day😊
You have an awesome grandfather, I got tears in my eyes hearing the story of his life ❤❤❤.
your grandfather is an absolute gem. also a hero putting up with your pranks😇❤
Loved that your grandfather was on the poddcast 🙏🏿❤ much love to you all three ❤
Loved this podcast best one yet. CJ learn and ask questions as many as you can, that's alot of regrets people have. I was raised exactly how your GPA was and taught them the same way
Omg ur grandad is the most sweetest genuine funniest young man. Had me in tears when he said ‘anything she wanted ‘. What a legend. Ur sooooo much like him and ur dad much respect. Love from London uk 🇬🇧❤️❤️xxxx
Your Grandfather is the best. I loved watching your Father when he did his cooking videos and now I see where you and your Father get it from. Your family is the best. I have so much respect for all of you.
CJ I absolutely loved this podcast I could listen to Grandad talk all day reminds me of the good days since most of my family has moved on to better pastures ❤❤❤

ABSOLUTELY bring Grandpa back. I TRULY ENJOY & LOVED THIS PODCAST 🙏🏻❤️✌🏻🇺🇸
What a lovely man your grandad is. I lost both grannys at age 10 and both grandads at 15. We lost my mother in law 2 years ago to stomach cancer that came back for a second time she was given 6 weeks to live lost her at 5 weeks. My dad is 78 and living with prostate cancer him and mum have been married 55 years.
Listen to your grandpa on a good marriage, he talks so much sense. We have been married 40 years, still feel the same as when we met ❤️
This is the best pod cast yet!!!! Ty so much for sharing Granddad again❤❤❤

Your grandpa is so awesome. Love his accent
CJ Loved this with your grandpa and the guys . Your grandpa is a doll . I see where you get your ways .🙂
Just got done watching. This was perfect. I love your Grandad. He reminds me so much of my Grandpa Jack. When you talk to him, you can see and hear the respect you guys have for one another. I lived watching this. I honestly think you should do more like this. Grandad is an amazing man. I cried when he was talking about Mimi. You could see and hear the love in his voice. Thank you, CJ.
Much Love
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Best episode ever! He melted my heart!

that was a very awesome story that your grandad told he is si awesome i like his story telling and yall are so awesome thanks for the great podcast take care
This is the greatest video it was hard trying not to cry I love your grandfather I could sit and hear his stories all day every day you all are special sending love to you all stay safe
Hi cj and Chris have fun and looking forward to next video
YES please get him back on, I don't know much about you CJ apart from the paranormal, rando and about you winning the dedicated race for your late father, but I have to say that after listening to this pod cast I love your granddad! He's awesome and I do love the old school way of thinking, The reason I have been trying to ask you about your racing is cos you must of heard of the TT races? or The Manx Grand pre? TT stands for Tourist Trophy, so you could easily do it or is bikes that literally when your on them and go round a bend!! man I'm not joking but my hair was touching the floor and it is very dangerous but please get back to me about this cos I'm dying to know if you have heard about it, I could and would send you things that you can't get, but back to your lovely granddad, I started watching and at first I was crying and laughing at the same time, but this has made me love your granddad, now I don't have anything to offer as I'm broke so on the off chance he's looking for a "sugarless Mama" then give me a shout cos he's the man and I think he's great really CJ your very lucky cos I used to have to work for a neighbor just so I could eat the scrap's from their plates before I washed them, and I didn't tell you that so you would feel sorry for me but to show you just how lucky you are to have a Family that loves you, look after each other and keep having each other's backs.

This was absolutely awesome I enjoyed watching every second of the video. FAMILY ❤
Hi CJ watching liked and shared with thanks again for another great video bro.
You get a 👍 just for your Grandad. Respect from here. What changes he’s personally witnessed, is dumbfounding. I’m 50 at Xmas. Even I’ve watched it all . All the best to the big man 👍👍
Loved this! Loved the wisdom, all of it I agree with and was raised on.
Hes amazing. Great interview.
