This dude hides his pain with laughs. Hope he has a life full of happiness and no more pain. He ain't a bad dude he just been dropped in a mean f**king world
That laugh is reliving every moment. That laugh is knowing you went through some crazy shit and your new found happiness for life and the present moment.
Richards a real one.. built him a few motorcycles with Dirtbags and had him at a couple bike shows in our booth. down to earth, funny ass dude, lot of fun to have around. He's my mom's favorite character from Mayans MC so he hopped on a FaceTime call with her and made her day. I got a lot of respect for him
@@iTsTHumpa I don’t think that was the original plan but Richard was done with the show he kind of eludes to it in this interview so they killed his character
Idk, maybe. Coming from my own VERY fucked up history of drugs/booze/fights/death, the last thing I wanna do is re-live it. I get what you’re sayin though
Bro we Mexicans are resilient. Our entire history from the Aztec empire to New Spain, the revolutions and wars to the forming of Mexico. To Oppression and living in silence here in the US cause we don't know the English language. And being afraid to speak up. We are so used to living in trauma and pain. War and abandonment and families being seperated for hundreds of years and it still goes on to this day. Us mexicans still fight with one another like the ancient mesoamericans back in the mayan days. Its in our music bro. Its our entire culture and what makes us Mexican. We never once knew peace. Thats what makes us so strong and that's why Richard Cabral is awesome cause he is speaking ad channeling generations of trauma and pain us Mexicans suffer and go through in Enlish. And thats why we keep pushing and moving forward cause we know our pain live our pain everyday and it makes us strong and we arent afraid to relive it.
Jon and Richard caught lightning in a bottle. You can feel Richard's intestity through the screen, you can hear his raw emotion. Jon was the perfect compliment. He listened and asked questions when needed. I felt utter heart break hearing Richard's story but also proud that he bettered himself and didn't allow his bad decisions be the end of his life. Top 5 podcast episode of the year, if not number 1 for me.
@@usernotfound904 ha that's all I could think this whole interview. Regardless it is always good to hear someone else's view on things. When I see guys like Richard, I'm grateful that I got a life change before going through all that. I grew up in South Central LA and I'm convinced if my uncle didn't hit it at the horse track and make that $20 grand to put down as a down payment for a house in Santa Fe Springs, CA. I might be dead or in prison, it is the life you live. Like Richard said it's crazy once you realize there's another world and one where it's not so messed up and toxic. I talk to everyone I can and always try to give everyone good advice and share whatever I've learned so that maybe they take something and learn from me and my mistakes in life. Try to give them another mindset. Life has been a crazy rollercoaster especially being on both sides of the world. Growing up in crime ridden, gang, drug infested community to working with and having met some of the most influential and rich people. Just 2 completely different worlds and if only they knew.
So many tell stories. So many want to live this life, but don’t. This man lived it on a daily. His passion and transparency and the hurt is shown with every word. He has a lot of knowledge in his dome, mixed with darkness. So, much respect Richard. 🤎
I've listened to the audio version at least 10 times, and it never gets old. I discovered Richard on American Crime, and I've been excited to see him pop up in anything new ever since. As a Mexican, Richard gives us a reason to be proud of where we come from, shows us that all your bad choices in life don't have to be the end of your life, if you want to change, you have to fight for it. He's a legend in the make, making mexicans proud of 🇲🇽
I’m not Mexican, I’m white. But I love y’all! Strongest pound for pound, and they work hard as hell like terminators all with a smile on their face! Working with them as a minority, I can say since I’m also a hard worker, that I get nothing but love, and I’ve met such nice homies, that always try to encourage you! Yeah I have nothing against Mexico or their people! ✌🏻❤️
I hope Richard see this. From one only child that went through the lifestyle to another, I SEE YOU, I HEAR YOU & I FEEL YOU! The type of loneliness that we experience in life is very unique & when we work through our trauma it becomes a skill, a powerful one. God bless the streets and the people in them because they’re the ones that need them the most and I know for a fact that this interview will change the life of at least 1 youngster who stumbles upon it. Que viva our beautiful raza & the eastside of course 🖤
Man when he talked about being there for your children. The emotion coming off him it’s like at that moment he was talking to his dad, the anger the sadness. That was pure heart talk and I feel that 100 percent growing up without at father until my stepdad came in and I’m grateful for him.
This interview is the epitome of never judge a book by its cover or by the first few pages. Honest to God, the struggles is unfortunate but it’s motivating and inspiring. Top 3 interviews I’ve watched in 2022 this far
This man and Joseph Raymond Lucero are the men that saved my life. I'm a firefighter now and a year sober. Thank you Richie for being the amazing person that you are.🙏❤ Ps. Daily reminder: I'm proud of y'all for getting through every day like champs and glad y'all r alive! Stay safe, stay fire and stay legendary ppl.🙏💪
@@slowedversion6393 It depends where you are but i'd suggest you to go to your local fire station and ask for the requirements needed to enlist into the fire accademy. Definitly recommending coming to the fire accademy already in high shape and good heath and trying the weekly firefighting trainings, to see if your mind and body is really prepared to do that as a career.
I'm grateful I watched this today - I lost my job yesterday and have been in deep thought about what I want to do with my life. Thank you Richard and Jon for this. Every day is beautiful, a wonderful gift, another opportunity to not only get back up, but to ascend to an even HIGHER level than before. Have a blessed day, everyone.
This discussion should have 50 million views. The young world needs to know what reality sounds like! This man is pouring his heart out about reality in inner cities! It sounds like he’ll! God bless him
I think alot of people dont know his name , Ive seen him in countless of movies , and The Mayans , but when I saw him on Law & Order Svu I made it a point to learm his name , and I found out he opened his coffee shop , and is doing very well for himself .. all these years I didnt know his name !! And now , I wont forget it , especially die to this interview .
Back here a year later. I’m so in awe of the way Rich talks. So much passion and understanding in his words. EVERYTIME he talks about his life experiences I cry. And whenever I’m feeling down I’ll come back here and replay ❤.
This hit home. I was part of a gang intervention program & they took us to Homeboy Industries. We all hated each other b/c it was a mix of youth from different gangs. What Father G shared with us and seeing how so many ex-gang members were thriving stuck with many of us. I went through a lot of pain and suffering coming from a broken home full of gang members but I’ve now taken the steps to build the life I want that will harm no one & have celebrated 3 years of sobriety. I still check on the ppl from that trip from time to time & many are doing great while we have lost others. I wish every child could grow up in a home filled with love,care and compassion so that no kid like me will have to seek love & validation from violence in the streets. Forever proud of Richard Cabral.
I heard about you guys!! i worked at rethreaded in Jax, fl.. same idea but w women coming out the game(sex trade,etc).. I loved the videos I seen about the ministry!!
If you just listen he’s a modern day poet. His way of speaking is raw & beautiful & although our lives are completely different I can recognize the pain he’s sharing with us. Thank you for being open & keeping it real.
The amount of pain he still retains shows that knowledge is power. Knowledge to this man has helped him understand what has happened to him and gives him reasoning behind his decision which can allow him to better himself for his family. He just wanted someone to be there for him and we have to do better as a community. We can’t just walk through life and see people in times of need and say “it’s not my problem” or that “it’s not my responsibility” when all they needed was for someone, anyone, to show them they care and they will listen and be there for them. This was an awesome interview and I pray for nothing but a successful fruitful love filled future for him and his family. God bless!
@Media Mania Network I understand exactly what you mean - of course his pain & experiences are his own, but his ability to articulate his emotions allows us a genuine glimpse into what he's been through. GODLY energy indeed.
This has to be the most incredible heart felt interview I have ever seen that I cried watching it. The rawness of Richard being so vulnerable and real was unexpected yet beautiful. John did an amazing job of listening to his friend speak from the heart and only spoke when necessary. Which is a gift and a talent to master the art of truly listening while you give the other person the floor to talk.
It doesn’t get views because you have to verify your age on your primary account. I did it several times and it kept getting an error message. I finally got it on my mobile device using a vpn and cast it on my tv. I immediately wanted to watch it, but TH-cam wasn’t having it. Great interview. Raw and real. Affected me like Shia’s interview.
Man I got choked up hearing the breaking in his voice. All this emotion pouring out of him…. You can hear him trying to control it as he’s trying to convey his thoughts. So heartbreaking. Much respect to him for sharing his story. And bro much respect to Jon for being a great listener and letting him speak before asking more questions. His interviewing and listening skills are so dope.
47.35 I honestly can’t remember last time I cried but hearing Rich say I’m going to be there for you son all I have is enough for McDonald’s son but I’m gonna take you there made me cry my eyes out this man is an inspiration
This man is so animated and passionate about his past life experiences, definitely a real solid dude just by his mannerisms and his character coming out from his words
I use to hang out with Richard and his homeboys back then on Floral in East LA. There was a little corner store by the freeway we'd go buy beer I think they called him Joker I'm not to sure. Years later I run into him in Highland Park at Antigua, super chill and humble dude. Proud of u Rich u made it carnal.
Best statement anyone has ever said. So simple but true “be there for your children DF! be there, love them, listen” not complicated at all!! Love the raw emotions and realness felt through cabral’s story
Never knew of Richard’s history of filmography before this but I could always tell on Mayans that he was a real one and that his performance was authentic. Without a doubt he was my favorite, after watching this he’s became another human that I do not personally know but have a great appreciation for. Man seen life and death, dealt with emotions, trials and tribulations, and still he stands a man willing to still find the light. Loved this podcast dearly and happy I took the time to genuinely watch every word and emotion that was shared. Wish nothing but the best for Richard🙏🏾
Even though this was a year ago, I came to this channel watching Richard and Primo Paulie’s interview. My respect 🫡 for both of them, and hearing Richard’s story is so empowering. This interview was not enough time!!! I can hear his stories over and over again !!!! ♥️♥️♥️
First time I seen rich was on the movie “End of watch.” Crazy how he’s telling his upbringing and his life. From a street soldier to a big screen actor. Respect for changing ur life around and being a positive role model. 🙏🙏
Man…I grew up in the City of Commerce in East LA so there’s so many relatable feelings. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a podcast that made me tear up multiple times. What a freaking great podcast!!
This interview for some reason resonated within me due to his pain, suffering and his passion but more importantly his amazing ability to have art save his life!!! I must meet Richard one day to let him know his life was not one of destruction but one of an artist finding the light! Tears fall from my face as I watch this.
1:07:55 - 1:09:05 Pure, unfiltered, raw emotion and energy from this fucking guy man. He said everything i felt and had experienced in my life the past two years. (no jail/prison time, I've managed that much lmao) Giving time and energy to people who aren't gonna do anything with it and being disrespected because of it. Turning around and focusing all my time and energy into myself. Richard is a living legend bro we gotta protect him at all costs.
Man this guy speaks from the hart all facts if ur from Los Angeles streets u know this man is talking nothing but the truth much love my brother congratulations to ur success I wish u nothing but the best god bless u and ur family
Amazing interview. Love how Jon never gets frustrated when he can’t even finish his questions half the time lol he just lets them tell their stories. He was the Same with Shia. Good shit fellas ✊🏽
We are stronger than our misfortunes. He is the prime example of it. God bless you Jon for using your platform to show the honest and real parts of life. Life is undefeated! Hang on tight and smile. The part when he said "No one is coming bro!" That hit hard. God bless you all!!! Xoxo
Dammit! 😭 I'm crying at the end of this interview. The tears are overwhelming inspiration and love and hope! What an incredible human, a true example of a Phoenix, and one that rose & rises but brings others with him. His story is so powerful & needs more attention. Give a kid on the street some hope & inspire them by sharing stories they can relate to. Big love, Richard! May the wind of your ancestors carry you to the highest of heights & bless your children & family! May your love with your partner be everlasting!
My older brothers lived crazy gang life in west denver and I'm glad they are still alive it seems like they lose one homie a month and my bros are trying to save young homie from the street life
Beautiful message bro… Also, really hope Richard uses his amazing talent of storytelling to help kids in their steps to the better! Both him and Jon are truelly great men and examples to young men today…
I've followed Richard for a few years now, I found his acting to be so genuine, which clearly comes from his life, his first hand experience. I grew up poor in an east coast city in the 80's/90's, I was poor, broken household, often homeless, barely surviving on welfare, food stamps and public housing while food kitchens kept us from starving. There were always gangs when I was a kid, always turf and disrespect causing issues, but when crack hit, it turned the poorest parts of our inner cities into war zones. Many of my friends ended up locked up in their teen, couple kids I grew up with decided to bang and got themselves killed. I made serious mistakes in my youth but managed to get incredibly lucky, somehow escaping every life-threatening situation that my idiotic decisions put me in. I was fortunate, so many people were racist AF back then, I was white, and I had some natural skills and a few teachers and one employer that refused to let me flush my life down the toilet, I managed to escape before that world put enough hooks into me where it wouldn't be possible. None of my close friends from my teens made it out, and I wouldn't have either if it weren't due to those factors. I listen to Richard talk about his childhood, about not getting the love at home so he got it on the street with his friends, and I relate to that so hard, I'm sure a lot of people do. I wasn't a gangbanger and I hated committing crime, but I loved my friends and needed to survive, so I went along with shit that should have got me locked up or killed, and I protected my friends not realizing that they wouldn't have protected me in similar circumstances. Real people are real, you can always tell when people are playing up or exaggerating their experiences.
@@peaceandlove544 I can't get behind the idea that an entity who's "plan" involved a child being forced to grow up in what I grew up in, with the years of violent physical, mental and sexual abuse, allowed a child to experience that out of "love". No loving God with any power over humanity would every force a child to endure what so many like myself have had to endure. I am not against others having faith, and I will defend your rights to faith and practicing religion with my last breath as our constitution deems it so. I just personally cannot carry on such a relationship.
This is one of the greatest interviews I've seen in my life...Jon you're a master at doing interviews....Richard told the most authentic heartfelt story ever....loved it...brought tears to my eyes😢
I don't know if jon and rich will ever see this but I've been struggling, not like this but in my own way, this moved me soo much. Thank you. Please do another one with you two. God bless both of y'all, inshallah.
You can see and feel the anger of his childhood in how he answers. Emotion upfront and mostly ends in anger. I hope he continues to get better. Loved this interview!
The way he expresses himself is real. He’s been thru it and he’s probably still going thru it but look at him now.. he’s doing amazing and he knows what’s real and what isn’t. I appreciate you so much Richard🙏🏼❤❤❤ I pray for you and I hope you continue to do good in this world 🐐🔥
As someone who went through some tough times. And has tattoos everywhere Richard made me see there still opportunities out there for everyone and anyone . Just takes dedication, practice and alot of heart. But you can get where you want to be. Thanks for this story John. I needed this. Makes me have alot hope for my own future. I would love to be an actor just like you guys.
Man, this dudes so blown out it’s crazy to see him because he’s dealt with serious trauma and this is probably the first time he’s talked about his life
Grew up in east LA and late 80’s and early 90’s it was bad. Shootings all over! Playing sports at the park most kids that went to public joined a set and most were killed. In retrospect, it’s crazy how numb we were to all this behavior.
He is not ate up or blown out trust me he's just a charismatic mexican. I'm not Mexican but trust me I understand what you're saying but that's maybe 49% that over powering 51% is his character I enjoyed him in SOA
If I can explain what it’s like growing up in New York in the 90s this would be the best way I can describe it, only real can recognize real . I’m more happy now that his career as an actor keeps going both men .
The energy he has amazing you can just here the realness and passion this guy should be a star Hollywood needs to wake up and put this man in more movies
I love how when John asks a question, you can see the thought connect to a specific moment and he is like excited to explain and express the answer to the question. Great interview
Okay I broke down about 5 times while watching this pausing it and rewinding it several other times . Unbelievable story . And there are many more . Thank you for sharing a little bit about your life .
Being someone that hasn’t walked the easiest road myself . This interview cut deep . I pray this man’s life becomes easier to deal with and one day he feels true peace 🙏🏼💯💙
Love these interviews.. no scripted stuff.. actual real-life experiences. Richard is as real as they come, hope life treats you well.. thank you for sharing man.
It's like looking into a mirror, my familia from East Los too and my family from one of the oldest neighborhoods in LA just like him, this man is pure raw emotion it's crazy you can feel every word he's saying
WOW..... I'm glad for his success and hope / pray for his health and peace. The thing about trauma is that it manifests itself in us victims in many different forums. I think being hard and street is not an issue for this man. Being whole and deep is a new journey for him. It's when he speaks to commitment to his son, finding acting, digging in and seeing life clearly that's when the relief of tears comes. Mr. Cabral head held high face to the wind. It's a new day.
It took too long to be released I was watch a 10 minute segment of the full video about 2 months ago I kept checking for this! Finally released 3 weeks ago
This is a man that seen it all, heart aches, pain and misery all in one. But I love the fact that he poured his heart out. Thank you Jon, for giving us the real shit in life.
I’ve been waiting for this to be released. This is the best interview I’ve ever seen. Jon has so much respect for Cabral and it’s noticed by him. Pure authenticity on both sides.
Hope this fella has the strength , dedication & pathway to break the mould & give his kid the opportunity & love that he didn't get. Praying he gets a chance, grabs it & makes the best of it 🙏❤
I’ve been following Richard Cabral since he started showing up on tv. I’m from Los Angeles and I just knew that he was acting but he wasn’t acting if you understand what I’m saying. I just saw the way he carried himself I knew that he was sincere and I looked into him and saw his background and as a Mexican in and out of the correctional system I just began to become a fan of his work and he gives people like us hope. Thank you both for this amazing episode.
He’s passion is palpable through every word, I’m glad he decided to turn his life around. Great interview, conversation and connection between them! Good vibes always 💯🙏🏾✊🏽
I cried watching this .. It’s hard finding ppl with the same passion as u in some of the same situations u can relate to .. I needed this i Preciate u Rich 💯
I love Richard, he's so real and honest. The things he's been through were so traumatic, but fortunately he is one of the lucky ones that turned his life around and turned all that coal into a diamond. Bless his heart and I wish him the most light and love to continue being successful and to further telling his story through whatever art medium finds him. He's an inspiration. Thanks for interviewing Richard Jon, love this show/podcast. Keep 'em coming. 👌
The wait was so worth it for this one. The passion is unmatched. The vibe is 100% real. Dude has made me feel accomplished to be a father to my baby’s and so proud. Thank you truly for sharing your story 🙏🏻
Richard played in Paranormal Activity The Marked one’s!! Omg probably my favorite one of that series!! He was the thug that was shooting all the demon grandmas with the shotgun 😂😂 he has one of the most eye opening yet saddest life stories I’ve ever heard and he seems like a genuine dude!! Thanks Jon for giving us another great interview!! ❤
One of the most under-rated interviews hands down
Agreed
Strongly Agreed 👍 👌
Your right!
Dope ass interview
The most!!
Can we just give credit to Jon for being one of the best listeners ever.
My man's clearly has CPTSD. I also have it. We project a lot..
@nochesdekaraoke6802 shame and guilt. Their ancestors are embarrassed lol
He is the best listener literally on this planet!
No doubt!
Bro this is so fake thank god for this amazing listener and did not laugh
“All I got is enough money for McDonald’s son, but I’m gonna take you there.” Love is love.
That part brought so many emotions for me. Been there.😢
Hit the spot for sure .
God is Love.
I’m 34 years old and this man’s passion and heart made me shed tears. I respect him 100% and his turn around and approach to life.
Soft
This dude hides his pain with laughs. Hope he has a life full of happiness and no more pain. He ain't a bad dude he just been dropped in a mean f**king world
I hope so too..but this kind of pain never leaves you. The tears tell me everything. 🙏
🤜🏽🤛🏽🫡🫡🫡🫡
He doing good,he open up tepito coffee
Us mexicans do this alot. I catch myself laughing at my mistakes every single day
That laugh is reliving every moment. That laugh is knowing you went through some crazy shit and your new found happiness for life and the present moment.
Richards a real one.. built him a few motorcycles with Dirtbags and had him at a couple bike shows in our booth. down to earth, funny ass dude, lot of fun to have around. He's my mom's favorite character from Mayans MC so he hopped on a FaceTime call with her and made her day. I got a lot of respect for him
That’s badass
Jesus, you can hear the heartbreak, sadness and hope he carries. Hollywood is sleeping on this Man.
Hollywood is satanic and fakeness. This guy represents realness, I hope for his sake that he doesnt fall into the hollywood dark hole.
What does Jesus have to do with this?bless his name instead
Hollywood is a perverted corrupt place so no
Hes famous as fk u must not follow him to not know he's not being slept on he's in one of the biggest movies and shows he's really out there
Hollywood is good for using people
This is why Coco was one of if not the most loved character in the entire Mayans series ….this man’s PASSION and authenticity
The way they killed him off was so disappointing. He gets clean off the opiates then boom he dies.
@@iTsTHumpa I don’t think that was the original plan but Richard was done with the show he kind of eludes to it in this interview so they killed his character
@@iTsTHumpa similar to half sack in SOA I think they wanted to originally build that character too
@@DPav88 that’s what I had heard too
It was stupid of them to kill his character off, coco was real. He didn’t snitch kept it real, sure he stole a key. But was awesome.
It’s crazy how you can see Rich literally take that trip back in time whenever he tells his story. He relives it. It’s what keeps him going.
Idk, maybe. Coming from my own VERY fucked up history of drugs/booze/fights/death, the last thing I wanna do is re-live it. I get what you’re sayin though

Every day is beautiful, a wonderful gift, another opportunity to not only get back up, but to ascend to an even HIGHER level than before. Have a blessed day, everyone.
Keep your head up bro
Hey man same thing here just two days ago and I'm in the same headspace and I'm here right now. Stay strong.
@@theguerovaquero Thank you, brother. Same to you 💪🙏
praying for you
Amen brother, God be with you 🙏
This discussion should have 50 million views. The young world needs to know what reality sounds like! This man is pouring his heart out about reality in inner cities! It sounds like he’ll! God bless him
I think alot of people dont know his name , Ive seen him in countless of movies , and The Mayans , but when I saw him on Law & Order Svu I made it a point to learm his name , and I found out he opened his coffee shop , and is doing very well for himself .. all these years I didnt know his name !! And now , I wont forget it , especially die to this interview .
Back here a year later. I’m so in awe of the way Rich talks. So much passion and understanding in his words. EVERYTIME he talks about his life experiences I cry. And whenever I’m feeling down I’ll come back here and replay ❤.
This hit home. I was part of a gang intervention program & they took us to Homeboy Industries. We all hated each other b/c it was a mix of youth from different gangs. What Father G shared with us and seeing how so many ex-gang members were thriving stuck with many of us. I went through a lot of pain and suffering coming from a broken home full of gang members but I’ve now taken the steps to build the life I want that will harm no one & have celebrated 3 years of sobriety. I still check on the ppl from that trip from time to time & many are doing great while we have lost others. I wish every child could grow up in a home filled with love,care and compassion so that no kid like me will have to seek love & validation from violence in the streets. Forever proud of Richard Cabral.
I heard about you guys!! i worked at rethreaded in Jax, fl.. same idea but w women coming out the game(sex trade,etc).. I loved the videos I seen about the ministry!!
Proud of you 👏🏻
I absolutely love this dude's energy. I will 100% be going back and watching every piece of art this man has had a hand in.
Arts very subjective
The passion that Richard is expressing is completely honest. I'm entranced
If you just listen he’s a modern day poet. His way of speaking is raw & beautiful & although our lives are completely different I can recognize the pain he’s sharing with us. Thank you for being open & keeping it real.
his ability to speak flashed me as well, so clear no uhm or eeeh etc
Honestly one of the best interviews I’ve heard and seen the energy this man puts out is incredible
The amount of pain he still retains shows that knowledge is power. Knowledge to this man has helped him understand what has happened to him and gives him reasoning behind his decision which can allow him to better himself for his family. He just wanted someone to be there for him and we have to do better as a community. We can’t just walk through life and see people in times of need and say “it’s not my problem” or that “it’s not my responsibility” when all they needed was for someone, anyone, to show them they care and they will listen and be there for them. This was an awesome interview and I pray for nothing but a successful fruitful love filled future for him and his family. God bless!
His energy is GODLY. I felt the pain of every word Richard spoke.
you may have felt some pain but not THE pain.
@Media Mania Network
I understand exactly what you mean - of course his pain & experiences are his own, but his ability to articulate his emotions allows us a genuine glimpse into what he's been through. GODLY energy indeed.
It's meth
I saw the pain through his eyes.
I was absolutely GLUED to my phone watching this. Phenomenally beautiful to have experienced such an exchange between these two.
This has to be the most incredible heart felt interview I have ever seen that I cried watching it. The rawness of Richard being so vulnerable and real was unexpected yet beautiful. John did an amazing job of listening to his friend speak from the heart and only spoke when necessary. Which is a gift and a talent to master the art of truly listening while you give the other person the floor to talk.
I have no clue how this podcast doesn’t have more views . This one is slept on
Bro i didn't even know Jon Bernthal AKA The Punisher even had a podcast until i saw a clip right now on Tiktok, which brought me here
This dude is a bad ass actor he plays a good part in a TV series called Mayans. M.C. great program
@@Jamzymalone my favorite ones him with shia
Because people like me just found it... It's 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It doesn’t get views because you have to verify your age on your primary account. I did it several times and it kept getting an error message. I finally got it on my mobile device using a vpn and cast it on my tv. I immediately wanted to watch it, but TH-cam wasn’t having it. Great interview. Raw and real. Affected me like Shia’s interview.
I’m sitting in the psych right now fighting depression I’ve been blessed with someone to tell me what’s real thank you Rich thank you Bernthal
How do you feel now
Stay strong Matthew
Keep ur head up Matteo
Stay hard brotha! One day at a time
You got this fam! Another day, another chance to be great!
Man I got choked up hearing the breaking in his voice. All this emotion pouring out of him…. You can hear him trying to control it as he’s trying to convey his thoughts. So heartbreaking. Much respect to him for sharing his story. And bro much respect to Jon for being a great listener and letting him speak before asking more questions. His interviewing and listening skills are so dope.
47.35 I honestly can’t remember last time I cried but hearing Rich say I’m going to be there for you son all I have is enough for McDonald’s son but I’m gonna take you there made me cry my eyes out this man is an inspiration
I see this episode once a week, and I feel like it’s the first time every time watching it.
Me too bro. We're misunderstood.
Minute 33 and forward. ❤
This man is so animated and passionate about his past life experiences, definitely a real solid dude just by his mannerisms and his character coming out from his words
It’s called meth bro
Not meth its called LIFE
He's high as fuck lol
He is a former addict lol 😆
If ur from the east cost u can’t relate
Realest podcast I’ve ever watched.. the emotion, connection between the two, the story telling… amazing and inspiring. Thank you both
The realest interview ever. Mad respect for Rich and Jon. They have to make a part 2.
I use to hang out with Richard and his homeboys back then on Floral in East LA. There was a little corner store by the freeway we'd go buy beer I think they called him Joker I'm not to sure. Years later I run into him in Highland Park at Antigua, super chill and humble dude. Proud of u Rich u made it carnal.
Best statement anyone has ever said. So simple but true “be there for your children DF! be there, love them, listen” not complicated at all!! Love the raw emotions and realness felt through cabral’s story
Never knew of Richard’s history of filmography before this but I could always tell on Mayans that he was a real one and that his performance was authentic. Without a doubt he was my favorite, after watching this he’s became another human that I do not personally know but have a great appreciation for. Man seen life and death, dealt with emotions, trials and tribulations, and still he stands a man willing to still find the light. Loved this podcast dearly and happy I took the time to genuinely watch every word and emotion that was shared. Wish nothing but the best for Richard🙏🏾
This guy should make a movie of his life it would be so good !!!!!
He did
@@yesididntdoitt7512 whats it called ??
He has a podcast called without your permission
@@jenniferrodriguez5123 ok thanks i will check it out !!
@@AM55922 i dont remember but its his own project look it up he released it after getting the role on Mayans
Even though this was a year ago, I came to this channel watching Richard and Primo Paulie’s interview. My respect 🫡 for both of them, and hearing Richard’s story is so empowering. This interview was not enough time!!! I can hear his stories over and over again !!!! ♥️♥️♥️
First time I seen rich was on the movie “End of watch.” Crazy how he’s telling his upbringing and his life. From a street soldier to a big screen actor. Respect for changing ur life around and being a positive role model. 🙏🙏
He was a rapper back then too mans just a beast look him up baby jokes
Man…I grew up in the City of Commerce in East LA so there’s so many relatable feelings. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a podcast that made me tear up multiple times. What a freaking great podcast!!
Vanessa is that you ?
Facts
This interview deserves more views!!
I have been waiting for this to come out. This is by far one of the most powerful interviews I have heard. His story and pain touch my soul.
This interview for some reason resonated within me due to his pain, suffering and his passion but more importantly his amazing ability to have art save his life!!!
I must meet Richard one day to let him know his life was not one of destruction but one of an artist finding the light! Tears fall from my face as I watch this.
1:07:55 - 1:09:05
Pure, unfiltered, raw emotion and energy from this fucking guy man. He said everything i felt and had experienced in my life the past two years. (no jail/prison time, I've managed that much lmao) Giving time and energy to people who aren't gonna do anything with it and being disrespected because of it. Turning around and focusing all my time and energy into myself. Richard is a living legend bro we gotta protect him at all costs.
Stay in there man! I feel you
I love my kids, but this just made me look at my children in a different way. I can never fail them.
Man this guy speaks from the hart all facts if ur from Los Angeles streets u know this man is talking nothing but the truth much love my brother congratulations to ur success I wish u nothing but the best god bless u and ur family
One thing I like about Jon in these interviews that he doesn’t interrupt, he lets them tell there story.
I've been waiting for this for a while now and this episode is one of my favorites now.
me 2 man, both these dudes are awesome
Patreon earlier release always
Richard is so passionate, how he can be his real and authentic self is something I respect so much!!!!
Amazing interview. Love how Jon never gets frustrated when he can’t even finish his questions half the time lol he just lets them tell their stories. He was the Same with Shia. Good shit fellas ✊🏽
I really didn’t want this conversation to end. So good
I’ve never felt this type of emotion hearing someone’s story, this guys pain is felt man, damn much respect bro and wishing nothing but the best. 👊🏽
We are stronger than our misfortunes. He is the prime example of it. God bless you Jon for using your platform to show the honest and real parts of life. Life is undefeated! Hang on tight and smile. The part when he said "No one is coming bro!" That hit hard. God bless you all!!! Xoxo
One of the realest, intriguing, heartfelt, truest most amazing conversations I’ve ever listened to.
He has such an incredible, deep, real laugh. I love his laugh
Dammit! 😭 I'm crying at the end of this interview. The tears are overwhelming inspiration and love and hope! What an incredible human, a true example of a Phoenix, and one that rose & rises but brings others with him. His story is so powerful & needs more attention. Give a kid on the street some hope & inspire them by sharing stories they can relate to. Big love, Richard! May the wind of your ancestors carry you to the highest of heights & bless your children & family! May your love with your partner be everlasting!
My older brothers lived crazy gang life in west denver and I'm glad they are still alive it seems like they lose one homie a month and my bros are trying to save young homie from the street life
Beautiful message bro… Also, really hope Richard uses his amazing talent of storytelling to help kids in their steps to the better! Both him and Jon are truelly great men and examples to young men today…
I've followed Richard for a few years now, I found his acting to be so genuine, which clearly comes from his life, his first hand experience. I grew up poor in an east coast city in the 80's/90's, I was poor, broken household, often homeless, barely surviving on welfare, food stamps and public housing while food kitchens kept us from starving. There were always gangs when I was a kid, always turf and disrespect causing issues, but when crack hit, it turned the poorest parts of our inner cities into war zones. Many of my friends ended up locked up in their teen, couple kids I grew up with decided to bang and got themselves killed. I made serious mistakes in my youth but managed to get incredibly lucky, somehow escaping every life-threatening situation that my idiotic decisions put me in. I was fortunate, so many people were racist AF back then, I was white, and I had some natural skills and a few teachers and one employer that refused to let me flush my life down the toilet, I managed to escape before that world put enough hooks into me where it wouldn't be possible. None of my close friends from my teens made it out, and I wouldn't have either if it weren't due to those factors.
I listen to Richard talk about his childhood, about not getting the love at home so he got it on the street with his friends, and I relate to that so hard, I'm sure a lot of people do. I wasn't a gangbanger and I hated committing crime, but I loved my friends and needed to survive, so I went along with shit that should have got me locked up or killed, and I protected my friends not realizing that they wouldn't have protected me in similar circumstances.
Real people are real, you can always tell when people are playing up or exaggerating their experiences.
🙏🙏
💯🙌🏽💪🏽
Thank you for sharing brother ✊🏽
Wowwww God you are a survivor God really loves you
@@peaceandlove544 I can't get behind the idea that an entity who's "plan" involved a child being forced to grow up in what I grew up in, with the years of violent physical, mental and sexual abuse, allowed a child to experience that out of "love". No loving God with any power over humanity would every force a child to endure what so many like myself have had to endure. I am not against others having faith, and I will defend your rights to faith and practicing religion with my last breath as our constitution deems it so. I just personally cannot carry on such a relationship.
This is one of the greatest interviews I've seen in my life...Jon you're a master at doing interviews....Richard told the most authentic heartfelt story ever....loved it...brought tears to my eyes😢
I don't know if jon and rich will ever see this but I've been struggling, not like this but in my own way, this moved me soo much. Thank you. Please do another one with you two. God bless both of y'all, inshallah.
Same brother I feel you 🖤
I hear you brother ,keep strong I hope you are OK
You can see and feel the anger of his childhood in how he answers. Emotion upfront and mostly ends in anger. I hope he continues to get better. Loved this interview!
Love both these guys. I remember seeing Richard Cabral in a movie and saying, that guy is a great actor.
Berathal as The Punisher. Man, he was great.
I’m so glad the full interview is out!!!
The way he expresses himself is real. He’s been thru it and he’s probably still going thru it but look at him now.. he’s doing amazing and he knows what’s real and what isn’t. I appreciate you so much Richard🙏🏼❤❤❤ I pray for you and I hope you continue to do good in this world 🐐🔥
This man is 💯 percent straight up can feel the pain in his voice. Best interview I have ever heard
Richard opened his soul for us. I completely know his pain. And well done for surviving and then becoming an actor 👏
As someone who went through some tough times. And has tattoos everywhere Richard made me see there still opportunities out there for everyone and anyone . Just takes dedication, practice and alot of heart. But you can get where you want to be. Thanks for this story John. I needed this. Makes me have alot hope for my own future. I would love to be an actor just like you guys.
Man, this dudes so blown out it’s crazy to see him because he’s dealt with serious trauma and this is probably the first time he’s talked about his life
Come from hoods like him man now I’m an engineer no degree but worked my ass off but his stories shit I been through
@@manuelojeda1189 I commented something like this, it’s like a cycle of how kids in the ghetto grow up
Grew up in east LA and late 80’s and early 90’s it was bad. Shootings all over! Playing sports at the park most kids that went to public joined a set and most were killed. In retrospect, it’s crazy how numb we were to all this behavior.
He is not ate up or blown out trust me he's just a charismatic mexican. I'm not Mexican but trust me I understand what you're saying but that's maybe 49% that over powering 51% is his character I enjoyed him in SOA
If I can explain what it’s like growing up in New York in the 90s this would be the best way I can describe it, only real can recognize real . I’m more happy now that his career as an actor keeps going both men .
The energy he has amazing you can just here the realness and passion this guy should be a star Hollywood needs to wake up and put this man in more movies
I love how when John asks a question, you can see the thought connect to a specific moment and he is like excited to explain and express the answer to the question. Great interview
Okay I broke down about 5 times while watching this pausing it and rewinding it several other times . Unbelievable story . And there are many more . Thank you for sharing a little bit about your life .
Oh and thanks for reminding me . I just bought two bags of that good stuff can’t wait to try some of that good coffee . Let’s fing GO !
Being someone that hasn’t walked the easiest road myself . This interview cut deep . I pray this man’s life becomes easier to deal with and one day he feels true peace 🙏🏼💯💙
Love these interviews.. no scripted stuff.. actual real-life experiences. Richard is as real as they come, hope life treats you well.. thank you for sharing man.
It's like looking into a mirror, my familia from East Los too and my family from one of the oldest neighborhoods in LA just like him, this man is pure raw emotion it's crazy you can feel every word he's saying
It’s cus meth amplifies your dopamine 10x the highest of any drug in the drug family.
WOW..... I'm glad for his success and hope / pray for his health and peace. The thing about trauma is that it manifests itself in us victims in many different forums. I think being hard and street is not an issue for this man. Being whole and deep is a new journey for him. It's when he speaks to commitment to his son, finding acting, digging in and seeing life clearly that's when the relief of tears comes. Mr. Cabral head held high face to the wind. It's a new day.
And this is why I love this podcast, no other actors out here doing shit like this. Much respect to you Jon ✊🏽 keep ‘em coming bro
I don’t get why this amazing interview hasn’t reached millions of views?!?! This was so inspiring.
It’s gone viral on tiktok, it usually does before TH-cam
It took too long to be released I was watch a 10 minute segment of the full video about 2 months ago I kept checking for this! Finally released 3 weeks ago
Foo this vato is a tweaker! Lol
@@juniorgallegos4588 ? Context
It's rehearsed. Interesting but rehearsed nonetheless.
This is a man that seen it all, heart aches, pain and misery all in one. But I love the fact that he poured his heart out. Thank you Jon, for giving us the real shit in life.
I’ve been waiting for this to be released. This is the best interview I’ve ever seen. Jon has so much respect for Cabral and it’s noticed by him. Pure authenticity on both sides.
Been waiting on this for SO LONG!
So much conviction in his speech.
@Patricio Medrano just parts
Ya I've been waiting on this interview to drop for it feels like months! Lol!
@@spoom937 patreon
@Patricio Medrano a partial clip of this video was released to get you to tune in on the whole video on patreon first
His pain runs so deep. But, somehow he thrives through it. I respect this man
This is such great episode! He's got heart! Been thru alot to get where hes at now
Hope this fella has the strength , dedication & pathway to break the mould & give his kid the opportunity & love that he didn't get.
Praying he gets a chance, grabs it & makes the best of it
🙏❤
46:34 talking about his love for his son is so wholesome.
I’ve been following Richard Cabral since he started showing up on tv. I’m from Los Angeles and I just knew that he was acting but he wasn’t acting if you understand what I’m saying. I just saw the way he carried himself I knew that he was sincere and I looked into him and saw his background and as a Mexican in and out of the correctional system I just began to become a fan of his work and he gives people like us hope. Thank you both for this amazing episode.
It’s amazing how he analyzed his emotions and I hope everybody feels it’s okay to feel emotions like this
Realest interview ive ever watched. Respect for Richard Cabral. Honest raw interview.
He’s passion is palpable through every word, I’m glad he decided to turn his life around. Great interview, conversation and connection between them! Good vibes always 💯🙏🏾✊🏽
I cried watching this ..
It’s hard finding ppl with the same passion as u in some of the same situations u can relate to ..
I needed this i Preciate u Rich 💯
When times get rough i come to this interview. luv
I love Richard, he's so real and honest. The things he's been through were so traumatic, but fortunately he is one of the lucky ones that turned his life around and turned all that coal into a diamond. Bless his heart and I wish him the most light and love to continue being successful and to further telling his story through whatever art medium finds him. He's an inspiration. Thanks for interviewing Richard Jon, love this show/podcast. Keep 'em coming. 👌
The wait was so worth it for this one.
The passion is unmatched. The vibe is 100% real. Dude has made me feel accomplished to be a father to my baby’s and so proud. Thank you truly for sharing your story 🙏🏻
Richard played in Paranormal Activity The Marked one’s!! Omg probably my favorite one of that series!! He was the thug that was shooting all the demon grandmas with the shotgun 😂😂 he has one of the most eye opening yet saddest life stories I’ve ever heard and he seems like a genuine dude!! Thanks Jon for giving us another great interview!! ❤
