I love Larry's stories mainly because he is so open and honest with his time in prison the good bad and ugly. God bless.
Absolutely!
God Bless
It felt great to find someone that I can relate to since I was locked up. When I was 15, I had gotten locked up for a year and a half in the Texas Juvenile Justice Department. I got out right before I turned 17 ( which I'm 17 right now.) And when I got out felt like I was left as an outsider with no one to go to or anything but when I found Larry's channel it made me feel better about myself because I realized that I wasn't alone and how many other people like me have went through this trouble.
Anything you need, let me know. If I can help, I will
Keep your mind right and keep a straight line. Make the future, a result of your past experience
Texas juvenile is daycare compared to Jail/prison lmao.
@@myratsalad did I say that?
@@myratsalad 😂 I know , God bless 'em
I hope you know that you should be so proud of yourself for making it through dark times and choosing to look for positivity You are not alone honey , remember one of the best ways to stay in a good path is by helping others and sharing your own experiences. I don't care if it's beating drugs, alcohol, jail, abusive childhood, abusive marriage, etc pulling other people up just seems to keep us straight. Bless you 💖
Hey Larry, just got your book today after being a long time viewer! Looking forward to starting it tonight. As someone who really didn't know anything about the prison system, watching you describe your time has been both enlightening and infuriating. You've really changed the way I look at prisons/inmates/guards. Love what you do!
Thank you for the support!! Enjoy the book, it’s a great read!!
Got my copy last month. Great read.
How is it?
It’s worth the read, got it last year and it’s got good co tent towards it and it’s good education
Love the content larry i used to be a trobled teen but seeing what you've been through has helped a ton anytime I've even had the thought of doing something i shouldn't its you that stops me keep it up
P
Hey that’s real good. He’s a great guy to learn from!
I used to run the streets with gangsters doing drugs etc, and I’m really glad a young person is seeing the pitfalls and avoiding them.
No advice or anything I just want to say good work Kade! Keep finding positive role models and stay away from the bad stuff. You’re going to have a great life with that attitude! God bless you kid
Words of wisdom from Larry- “don’t change your life for other people.”
That's probably meant to be taken with a grain of salt.
CHANGE UR LIFE FIR CHRIST
It’s my birthday today Larry and I just have to say I’m so grateful for freedom and I’m most thankful for a another year of good health and being debt free. Much love to my family and everyone else out there 💙
The best time I had in prison is the day that I got out.
But good Lord that was an overwhelming day. So much input.
Seeing that pain in Larry’s eyes when he’s recalling whatever traumatic moment he’s thinking about physically hurts my chest.
Then i start thinking about All the men and women that have been through the prison system here in the United States…there are *an incomprehensible amount of people walking around with severe PTSD from their time behind bars* and they are permanently damaged by the system in that way.
We need, as a society, to address this madness- _immediately if not sooner_
Larry, that speech about living life the way you are, and not pretending to be anyone else to please other people, was exactly what I needed to hear right now. Thanks for always telling it like it is, and stay awesome.
Thanks for all of the content Larry, you're such an interesting person to listen to and I always love watching your stuff.
Larry love listening to your content with my head phones at work, makes the night go by quick. Keep up the the good work.
Man I appreciate the positive vibes and advice you give. It's crazy the life you had then had to go through the shit you have and are able to have the outlook you do on life. Your an inspiration brother.
Thanks for sharing, Larry! Love your videos!
Luv your vids Larry! It's awesome to see you helping others 🙂
Your videos on my recommended feed on TH-cam always bring a smile to my face. You rock Larry!
How real you are is absolutely one of your best traits mate, definitely makes your videos better so don't feel weird about saying certain things.
Another great one Lar!!! Keep 'em coming!
Love the content man keep up the great work ✊👑
I’ve learned a lot from your videos Larry, you have educated me on prisons, your a great story teller, I could listen to you all day and not get bored, even though I’m from the UK it’s still interesting learning about the prisons in America
Great stories.Very entertaining and inspiring! Thank you Larry for sharing and keep up the good work!
Hey Larry, you make amazing videos. I always find myself binge watching your videos. ( What were some of your favourite songs you used to listen to when you were in prison or on acid ). Much love 🖤
Hi Larry! Great video , I grew on in Lackland A.F.B in San Antonio, Tx and The King and his Court use to come and play and one
time they played my dads squadron's team and it was so awesome. They are like the Harlem Globetrotters of softball. I love your personality and ethics so much. Thank you so much for sharing all of your positivity and light. God Bless you and your family 💖
Edit: Spelling, as always 😂
Great content, keep it going! 😊
You are a treasure Larry! Thx for your videos and the honesty in your stories
awesome vid Larry! can't wait to see the new book
Fun stories. As a woman myself, I took no offense to your acid trip comment 😂
😂😂
Thank you for all the stories, and lessons you teach others. You're awesome! ❤️🤘
I had a similar experience on Acid Larry. I was up north in Michigan on it and I was tripping and looking at the stars, listening to ambient Skyrim music and I had an out of body experience where it felt like I was flying through the sky. It was wild.
Skyrim music on acid lmao
@@donavantidwell9399 that was the shit that sent me to the sky 🤣
Do Morrowind music next
It was dope hearing you talk about stocks. Makes it sound more straight forward. Anyway, another dope video man, good stuff!
It’s inspiring how you made the best of a bad situation.
Larry I have ALOT of anxiety your video are a nice relief! Thank you
A lot of people will not believe good times in prison can be had. I had several good times in combat, some shit is just so dam funny. Made great friends. No matter where you are positive mental attitude is essential to surviving. I do pray for you Larry.
Hey Larry! I had a great time talking to you yesterday
Another amazing video, love your content keep up the amazing work.
Much love thanks for being here !
love your videos Thanks for making my day
I saw the King and his Court when I was a kid. The whole night was a blast. Those guys were great!
Love it brother
Another great show Larry..
Just bought your book, can wait for a masterpiece to arrive to my door.
When people ask me about jail an prison I tell them about all the fun times I had cause honestly I definitely had way more fun times then bad times. Glad this video was made.
Coming from someone who's never done time I enjoy your content larry. Your life story is very interesting and your a genuinely nice guy to hear from
I’ll
@@andrewflatt1453 that really isn't valid grammar policing in this situation but A for effort. Go write another ticket somewhere else
I love your videos Larry they make my day everytime you post
Glad i can add to your daily schedule
Doing acid in the 70's. You brought back some fond memories. Window pane, blotter, those orange barrels. Mescaline as well. Fun times.
larry i've been following u when u had less than 20,000 followers and your video editing skills have drastically improved! i almost thought i was tripping watching the screen before the woods 😂
10:09 A wedding in prison isn’t weird to me. It’s beautiful. I think you were lucky to experience that. The couple is even luckier. That’s really wholesome no matter the circumstances. It sucks that it had to be in prison but that’s life.
Nice comments on not pleasing others. My mom use to say “don’t live life for anyone but yourself “ great advice !
Well I found you only 2 weeks ago and seem to be addicted to your talks. Funny and informative. Canadian ❤️ your way.
Thanks for the new support!!! Check the original gangster redemption series out
Can we have some more of these story's loved listening to every detail of of this story
Another banger video thank u larry
This guy is telling real stories and has lived every story he shares. I love his content. He may say he wasn’t smart but his street skills are 100%
Uncle larry, the real OG dropping facts again. Talk about living in a different world in prison and still making the best of it. Wow.
Hi Larry, really enjoying your content. You're a great communicator and very entertaining. I appreciate you sharing your experiences, despite the trauma it may bring back and, how private these stories are to you. I appreciate it, and I know others do too.
I'm in the UK, and your book is really difficult to get, it costs over £100 to order. I was wondering why you haven't pushed the sale overseas?
Damn dude I never thought I'd be able to talk to somebody like you, no offensive course it's so interesting hearing your stories and the good you've done for people it's heartwarming, stay strong in these crazy times
"No offensive course"
Thanks for the video Larry!!!!!!! Woohoooo
Love your videos
I am almost done with Gangster Redemption and it’s great so far! Love the content Larry
God bless you, larry. I'm happy your doing well outside the big house.
Great vid Larry, much love from Ireland
Thank you for the love and support my friend !!
One of my best moments was when the bully in jail got moved to a different cell block for sexual harassment. It made time go back faster. And taco Tuesdays were the best!
Bully😳
Lol cringe
eh why is that particular thing "my best moment" as you put it??? no offense man but most of these youtube comments are cliched, weird AND sound forced
Good 😊
Wat i love about u Larry is your philosophy on life n others n in that way u r very much like me wit an open mind mate eh. have a good day buddy.
I don't even know you and I have so much respect for you. Ive watched a lot of your videos and I enjoy them all. TY.
Larry did you say the guy got life sentence for ACID?? Maybe I misunderstood, but that seems like a huge injustice!
There can be no suffering without happiness to compare the suffering to.
Love your stories dawg🤘
Happy Tuesday Larry, you ever get any really beer 🍺 in prison or just the homemade stuff ?
It would probably be extremely hard to get beer... you would probably get drugs easier than beer but if they had beer the drug usage would be reduced
I’ve had a trip like that before I’ve had floated up over my body and I could see everyone from above me trying to get me back. It was quite the experience
Great video Larry! We need a cooking episode.
love the content larry
Love the support more !
Yo Larry, I did some time and I gotta say you really tell it like it is brother. Keep on keeping on my Friend 👍
My uncle was in the the Atlanta prison in the mid 2000s. I remember he was bragging about meeting Woody Harrelson’s dad there. We are related to them and he thought it was the coolest thing ever.
Thanks!
bro described acid so well, man had an out of body experience
Just found your channel and watched your entire life though out the school week
Larry you have quickly become my favorit TH-camr. I have so much in common with you even though I have never been to prison. I’ve been in and out of the psych ward , and BOY are there some similarities.
I love love love your open minded attitude.
☺️☺️
Imagining you floating in the sky reminds me of that scene from The Big Lebowski haha!
...believe the acid stories because they are true. Its a super drug when a good trip.... horrifying on a bad one. Been there done that both good n bad. Keep doing what your doing Larry, really enjoy your stories!
I've dropped L a few times when I was younger- concerts, parties, a musical one time haha I think I prefer the trip from mushrooms a bit more cause it feels less jarring to me; I can be kinda wimpy when it comes to psychedelics. Also, I had an idea for future content potentially! I remember reading a Cracked article in highschool about 5 people who changed the world from inside prison. I remember one guy named Stroud who studied birds while he was locked up for murder and ended up becoming an authority on bird diseases and ornithology. Another guy devised the building the Eerie Canal while he was doing time. Just some for-instances from that article, but of course you could add whoever you like, it's your channel haha just a thought man!
larry i really like your content and im 15 and relised to stop doing bad because the consequences you talk about thank you have a good day
Good advice!
Awesome story thank you very much
Damn Larry! Thank you for your relatable experiences! ASP softball 1995-1999. They took it away. Didn't take our acid away tho haha! I was up for 2 days from a stamp once.. WHEW! Love your vids.
One of my favorite places to trip was in school, and I got the same questions you did Larry. "how can you trip in school and not freak out?!" I used to just zone out on the carpet in my school. They had the best carpet to stare at and hallucinate on.
I like how he does the same hand gesture in the video on the monitor
🎵"OOOH Life on the outside ain't what it used to beee" 🎶 lol
Larry, you had your fun the way you could. No judgement from me, heck I like playing video games, fun is all about perspective my brother, and sounds like you had a good time, and I could get behind that
I like how you are straight forward. I have done acid but I dunno if I can do that in prison. I would be scared of not be able to leave my cell.
Gotta have that some what positive portion of the day. Need a few more of those portions these days.
Lynyrd Skynyrd on acid is the best thing to ever exist. It’s like you’re right there in the late 60s early 70s jamming. Lynyrd Skynyrd on acid, I repeat, LYNYRD SKYNYRD ON ACID!
As a dead head that's tripped balz before I appreciate this video. One of my favorite videos of yours. Lol. This turned into an advertisement for LSD real quick. 😂
Hey Lar! You’re awesome brother 😎
I'm not sure if you ever went through this but what happens in prison when theres some form of natural disaster. Tornado, hurricane, earthquake, wildfire, flooding.I'm assuming most prisons can withstand a bad storm but was there ever a concern during a storm that it couldn't?
The leave them there….it happened during Katrina
So much love Larry ❤️
Love learning these and my dad tells me how he makes some stuff shile hes locked up✌
🇨🇦 shout out from Ontario,Canada🇨🇦
🏃♂️💎
GO LARRY ,GO!!!!
Hey Larry I loved how you mentioned the greatful dead and acid I went to a 3 day long greatful dead music festival having the time of my life tripping balls off liquid acid what a hell of a time man
Im not always a very sociable person and listening to Larry makes me not want to kill people when I am not in a particularly great mood, i medicate then relax the way needed and prescribed and suggested and then I GTF2S after the videos :) all my worries disappear when Larry speaks his wisdom
Larry man love your videos cuz
Hey Larry, have you seen the first episode of the 8th season of House MD ? House is in prison and a lot of the things in the episode made me think about your storys.
Larry, I was working on Coleman Federal prison laying block around the time you were on the main unit...
Took five hits at Camp Creek one year, literally figured out life that night, still to this day 20 years later one of the best nights of my life 🤣🤣🤣 Pink Floyd The Wall changed my life
