There's something about you that lets me know you're a good guy. I know that sounds generic, but I can tell that you're just an honest guy trying to make it, just like a lot of us. God bless ya, bro
That is exactly how I feel. He has a beautiful heart.
I felt the same while I watched one of his videos for the first time. I instantly subscribed. Just the energy through the screen is warming.
Your ok in my eyes. Be safe out there. I love what you do. Sometimes I go with my son and I love it. Besides I get to spend time with my son. Which I love.❤😊
I was thinking the exact opposite, being a LEO something just feels off with this dude
I love the Mutant Turtles , I watched the original when it first came out back in the day , But I like your channel cause your a blue collar working man while doing TH-cam , You deserve to upgrade to at least a mini van in the future , wish well in your future endeavors
I respect a man that can admit his imperfections and grow from them
Congratulations on your 8 month sobriety! That’s awesome. You being in your son’s life is so important. Especially at his age. Children need all the love their hearts can hold. Stay safe, be encouraged and God bless you.
Thanks, you also!
@@brenpgrace Hi Bren new subscriber, I was happy to hear that I am not the only one who likes winter a lot more then summer! Whenever fall comes around my spirits always seem lifted and when people ask me why I like winter so much I tell them during the summer you can only take so much off and still be sweaty but during winter you can always pile clothes on and get warm. My 2nd husband who is also an Irishman is almost 20 years sober from alcohol and pain killers. He hit bottom when he died and EMT'S brought him back that was when he knew he was done and he changed his life around completely. Please remember we find peace and happiness from within ourselves not from what we may or may not have! Stay strong and take one day at a time and you will get there I know you will! God Bless You.
Love it!
You make me happy.....
There is nothing more beautiful than seeing someone rebuilding their life. The display of pure courage, strength, positivity, efforts, sacrifices, hope, and motivation when countless things are against you is truly incredible. Wishing you all the best, brother. You are doing great! You have got this!!!
Kind words, thank you!
Good info !
I love how honest you are talking about your drinking problem. With your commitment to staying sober, your hard work, and God, I predict you are going to really turn your life around, and good things are headed your way:)
Now that your channel is growing, please don't address the haters to come. Don't give them the pleasure of your attention. Keep it moving, take it one day at a time and CONGRATULATIONS!!🥳🥳❤
Solid advice.
Thank you, haters will hate!
Right. Ignore the haters. They are sure to come out of the Woodwork, or from under their rock...
@@brenpgrace That's what they do. Dogs bark, cats meow, birds chirp and haters hate. It's their nature and you just get on down the road.
I’m so proud of you. My dad was an alcoholic and I saw his behavior ruin our family. You can do this 🙏🏻
My dad as well. Take care of yourself beautiful! :-)
Congratulations on your 8 months sobriety.👍🏽🙏🏽 Keep God in your life and you'll never go back.😊🙏🏽
This guys positive attitude is more contagious than covid. Keep it up bro
😂😂 thanks dude
I love your honesty. Our Lord is so merciful! I’m a grandmother with a grandson that has struggled with abuse. He too is living his best life now. Praise God. I found your videos this evening and became a subscriber. Stay safe. If you slip, just stand up straight and begin anew. God Bless you sweetheart.
I am 8 months sober now after years of struggling. What you said about getting rid of the shame and guilt really hit home. I wish you strength on your journey.
Thank you for sharing and watching
I grew up the daughter of an alcoholic. He never had the courage to try to stop and died young at 56. I sincerely applaud you for recognizing your addiction and working on it. God has strength enough for all of us, may He bless you. Continue to seek Him. You are in my prayers. I subscribed. Kathleen
It’s very refreshing to have a content creator be honest about why they decided to live in their car. Most other YT car life creators are full of BS and really are not up front. Thank you - I personally appreciate that. God bless you, I hope you continue to have blessings in your life.
I find the truth works best. Thanks for sharing
Father time is so important you are on a good track I asked God to help me quit smoking 35 years I smoked 7 yrs now I don't smoke I'm so glad I did that for my self
Do it for you bren 😊
Definitely hit a milestone on that last video! 138,000 views?! Nice. You deserve it. Love seeing people with positive energy build their community.
All of us are in it now.
I was just scrolling through TH-cam, looking for car or van life videos. This is my first time watching your video (4/22/24). Once you mentioned your struggles with alcohol, I started praying to God for deliverance and recovery for you. Than to hear you say, you finally gave your life to God, I was sooo OVERJOYED!!! You’re not by yourself brother.
No matter the life choices or mistakes, NO Weapons formed against you will prosper!!
Congratulations on your great sobriety accomplishment!!!🎉. I’m so proud of you!!! Keep fighting the good fight of Faith!!! We got your back in prayer!!!🙏🏾 New subbie👍🏾
Hey, thank you !
Hi Bren, I just found your channel and I am so happy to hear that you turned your life over to God. He will never leave you nor forsake you and is so faithful. I know that you are protected and loved more than you will ever know. God bless you abundantly
Just "met" you. I am a sober car-lifer too on the East Coast. Peace ✌️
I’m in recovery too. Celebrated 15 years in November. So I feel you so much. The realization that gave me escape velocity is that addiction is like schizophrenia. It’s a little voice in your head that lies to you and says whatever it takes to make you fail. Once I learned isolate that voice, I was able to ignore it, kind of like a schizophrenic lives with imagined people and must learn to identify and ignore them.
Heck yeah brother. Congratulations on your sobriety. Always lean on God. He is our rock.
👊
Keep going mate. God keeps bringing out of you the strength He has pre-built into you.
I like the sound of that, thank you! Much appreciated! 👊
Bro I am not going to lie, I pumped my fists in the air when you said you were 8m sober! You have a subscriber for life. Well done brother.
Let’s GO!👊 9m in 11 days. 🔴
We see and hear the faith-forward choices you are choosing……glad the algorithms sent me your way. This great grandmother so enjoys following you young folks who have found your armor, and are stepping in a direction that brings you peace and purpose. No matter our age, most of us understand winding paths.
I’m glad you enjoy it! Thanks for being here
There are many golden bits related to your channel. I’ll pick one. Your attention to detail sets a good example for your viewers. The way you organize your car is outstanding. The favorite of mine, though, is how you document your finances, take what you earn, and allocate specific amounts to car expenses, food, etc. Keeping your records in such detail is so helpful towards peace of mind. You’re doing great. Best wishes.
Amen to the winter brother. I lived in my car at Walmart for 2 years down here in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Winter time you sleep deep and like an exhausted baby, summer time- miserable utterly miserable. People who've never experienced living in their car simply can't know or understand: they think that logically it's better to sleep in your car in the summer time - WRONG.
When you said u went to God ! Lord I felt that God is using u as a Testimony . I am so happy I found your channel
The algorithm gods have smiled upon you. Congrats!
Winning youtube is comparable to trying to beat the temple run on LEGENDS OF THE HIDDEN TEMPLE GAME SHOW without encountering a temple guard 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hey there, Bren. I'm a new subscriber since last week. I agree with @shaunfossett there is something about you that lets me know that you are a genuine down to earth person. You have a funny sense of humor when you're picking up those orders. I stumbled onto your channel last week and have binged watched all of your videos. Who knew that watching a guy picking up and delivering food orders could be so relaxing.🙂
Enjoyed this Q&A. I didn't realize how much I've already learned about you in the few videos I've watched since subscribing. 😊 I'm the opposite of you when it comes to loving temperatures. I prefer it to be warm because I can cool down, but can't stand cold. I never seem to be able to warm up. 🥶 Cracked up at the "fellas" in the lounge! 🤣🤣 I love your sense of humor. Lastly, I've been a Christian pretty much all my life. The way you talk about your relationship with God lines up with my experience. I love that you put into words exactly how I feel. Sometimes, the way you nail it is a great reminder that increases my gratitude and joy when I think about the truth of how God operates in my own life and circumstances 🤗🙌🏿🙌🏿 Tracey from San Diego, California
His strength is made perfect in our weakness. Hang in there bro. We all have our faults. Sometimes they are there for a reason. Proud of your commitment to sobriety. You won't regret it! I've enjoyed hearing your story and also your attitude. You will go places! Sending love and prayers from Aus! xoxo

Re having God in your life, prayer works!! Morning prayer ask for help and have gratitude, go through the day knowing there's an evening prayer as accountability. It works for any problem out there.
The " not Canada cold" made me laugh it's 7:30 am -10 c feels like -14 which is about 6F
Thankfully it's warning up this weekend.
Your life is turning around and thats what is important....look forward and learn from the past ....you are a hard worker and you are well on your way to a successful future ❤️🙏..its great that you are a hands on father
I root for you man. 5.5 years sober here. Keep going ❤️
Nice!
@@brenpgraceI how much money do you spend on fuel per day when you are delivering.
@@brenpgracemy partner is alcoholic she been sober for 6 weeks.stay strong for your son you are a good dad by staying in your son life .
Your authenticity and vulnerability in sharing your life is so awesome to see! I’m a part time gig worker also and enjoy watching you work 😊
Thank you !
I wanted to tell you that this is the first video I've seen of this sort that actually gave me hope. The reason, i believe is that it did actually feel completely honest & open. I adore your lounge. The fact that you stay in the area more for the sake of being a father to your son is so very refreshing! Congratulations on your sober time, i wish you continued success, i hope life just keeps getting better for you. So happy for you.....And your son! Thank you so much for the good clear information and the links! You gave me hope and i sorely needed that this night!
I’m glad to hear, thanks for watching
Congrats on sobriety. Early days box mine deeply rooted in Rhode island. 3/4/91 just celebrated 33 years.
Big congrats on 8 months of sobriety!!!! I have 2 years and 3 months sober from drugs and alcohol and this has been the longest ive been sober; also I have lived in my car for a period in my sobriety and worked full time so I know how that is....anyways keep up the good work!
Congrats on your 2 years and 3 months, keep going one day at a time❤
Wow 136k views on the previous video, kudos man!
Seriously respect you! For facing your demons, and being a responsible loving father of your son. Be proud. With your strength,hopefully in the future you can help others in their journey. God bless.
One day at a time. Thanks for sharing your story.
Thank you! 👊
Amen..God is the answer. 8 months!! That's definitely something to be proud of.. Keep going! One day at a time. 🖤🖤❤️
Just came across your channel and want to offer you a huge, huge congratulations in staying sober for 8 months. I'm a former gambling addict and your story reflects my own. As you say keep the train moving and things will get better. Absolutely brilliant channel. Keep it going.
I’m a new follower and impressed by a lot of things but right now, it’s your organization. ❤
Great video! Thanks for teaching others you ca n be successful in sobriety.
God is good!I'm a snow baby. congratulations, On being sober.
Good for you on your 8 months sobriety!!! And your love of God, family and life!!! You deserve it.
Been watching you for a couple weeks. I dig your positive attitude and you hitting the grind everyday. Nothing but respect for that. Keep your head up and get after that paper. Stay safe out there man.
Wow 8 months free from drinking, thank God, you turned it over to the right one (God)❤
cheers from Romania, I hope u make it dude
Thank you, much appreciated! 👊
Keep it up, Bren! So glad you found God. And you are honorable for staying in your son's life. AND, I seem to be in the minority with my friends and family here in Texas, but I LOVE the winter! I went to college in Bristol, RI, in the early 90s and lived on Cape Cod for three years, then moved to CA and back to my home state of TX years later. I hope to live up north again before the end of my life. 🙂 Best wishes for you!
You are great man! You have been doing your great job! Keep up the good work!
Hey Bren! Wife and I came across a couple of your videos tonight and really enjoyed them. Nice production! Best of luck with your channel man, and congrats on your progress with everything you shared. I decided to stealth camp once recently in our Pathfinder because of an early appt that was a couple hours away. Really enjoyed it! Was inspired by another guy I’ve seen on TH-cam, Steve Wallis. I think his channel is @campingwithsteve? Wasn’t easy my first time, but thought of several things once I got parked that will make the next time better.
You learn something new every time, thank you for the super thanks Brandon!
Loved this video - made me subscribe. All the best to you Bren; you are making a good thing out of the tough situations you were in. Looking forward to watching your journey 😊
Okay Bren. I subscribed, then unsubscribedn now subscribed again. I admire and respect your determination to conquer the drinking addiction. Your most important 1st step was asking God into your life! With His help and guidance, amazing things will begin to happen, like 136k views! I am 73 yrs. old and just a gentle request to go lightly on the 4 letter words. I used to say sh.t all the time until my precious grandsons were born, then decided to clean up my act. You are in my prayers! I love your soothing voice and the Ninja gang are cute! God Bless!
You and your vids are soothing and relaxing, great music, great attention to details. Easily earned my sub !! Stay strong and well brother 🙏
I always enjoy hanging out with you Bren! So pleased for your latest success and that last viral video. I hope you keep going up and up 🎉
Happy for you bro, Keep grinding
I’m loving all these videos, binge watching and astonished how quickly your subscriber count is growing. TH-cam is not easy. I have some really cool videos on my channel but building that sub count is the hardest thing I’ve ever tried to do. Keep up the great content. Whatever you’re doing right, it’s working.
Loving the videos. Glad you are getting some recognition ❤ We just can’t get enough of you!
Stay safe and congrats on your subs! You’re an inspiration!❤
New subscriber! I found your last video through the algorithm and then stayed cause you have a good attitude about life and I had to support a fellow New Englander! Good luck on everything :)
