I give you the true news so you don't have to invest any money in buying newspapers that charge you for the privilege of keeping your consciousness imprisoned in a tiny box of ignorance and lies

Beautiful, Russell! Thank you for being a genuine inspiration. You are loved & appreciated.
Keep these up. They're important. Best one yet!
More truth in 10 min than sky broadcast in a year!
I'm so glad that you make these. I hope that you keep making them for as long as you are able to.
I love that not only does this great man speak the truth, but he does so knowing that there are more naive and ignorant people out there who will regard him to be mad. Accepting the shit that we are spoon fed from the day we are born from schools, governments and the media is mad, and waking up from that is FUCKING BRILLIANT!
LOVE the theme tune, the message, the vibe and the direction
BEAUTIFULLY SAID RUSSELL, it grants me a wide grin to watch these videos
I was thinking to myself "this is very bill hicksish" just before he said that lol. Great video as always. I think it's better when he spends more time on the self improvement aspects at the end of the video
Hope he continues this indefinitely , pure brilliance this one
The Trews is a hoot, and I especially adore when you read from uplifting/enlightening sources ~ would you please share even more "Storytime with Russell?" It is/you are brilliant! Much gratitude for taking the time to make the Trews!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Russell,
I feel more and more detached from the world and the existing paradigms which we are currently bombarded with. It's exhausting really, and hard to understand for those who are not into the topic on how these discourses are slammed into us every single second of our life (the adds on youtube are screaming for my attention as we speak). Your video's and thoughts combined with the humor and occasional wisdom give me some sense of relief that I'm not the only crazy one out here.
Returning some of the organic good energy you give: Russell, this comment comes from a house spouse dading twin one year olds. Fulltime took on new meaning for me when those siblings came along. Every few days or so, once they are asleep and I have enough energy to not pass out, I catch up on your series of Trews. dude, your erradic rendering of all the tallow-like news into useable candles by which to cast a light of hope is endearing, engaging and helps me stay... Humanized. Thank you. .... And keep that orchid in East London alive! ;)
These Trews make my day. I love that you have added your own readings on eastern philosophy and psychology texts. I agree with every word you have said here. This fear just adds to depression and illness and dysfunction in relationships.
Best one yet! BF who is not a Brand fan is now watching every day. :)
Mate, i wish i was half as articulate as you. Your ideas and thoughts are very similar to mine. To think i didn't even used to like you before i became more open minded and woke up ! I changed my opinion of you and became less bigoted and more open minded after your interview with Paxman. Keep your vids coming. I look forward to them and hopefully they will wake more people up. Good man!
I can't keep up with all the episodes, but I am very much enjoying the insights and the humor. :)
Dearly love and me Trews..the passage about what 'god/spirit/energy "wants to be around"..gratitude and joy....so, so powerful a insight and so well delivered by you...Russell so glad you "are"...
Thanks for the philosophy bit. I will give it a shot, why wouldn't I. Choosing to be happy. How come nobody mentioned this sooner. Everybody says get a job, buy a house, get married, blah, blah. Yet some scruffy ex junkie suggests that I simply choose to be happy. He has mentioned this twice, minimum, and I have only just made a conscious decision to do it.
Russell you are right. Thanks for your persistence. I am happy. I have chosen to be happy. Sounds a bit gay. I shall start with choosing to be content. Satisfied. Perhaps working towards happy when I feel more comfortable with myself. More content. Awesome. It is my choice and I just made it. Job done. We'll see. Best of luck to everyone who gives it a go.
it's all about perspective then. and appreciation of everything that crosses our path. i am grateful for the hard times as much as i am grateful for the good times. sometimes life is like a beautiful sunny day and sometimes life is like a cloudy rainstorm, but both are important to make the flowers grow. thanks russ
I think this was the best TREWS so far! Finally we getting down to Russell's msg! Can't wait for more - Wake people up Russell
Russel you have taken the words right out of my mouth and said them in a way better than I ever could. keep up the good work
I love you, Russell...which is just my atoms responding in a warm hum to yours. You're really onto something. Thanks for your contribution to the revolution.
Always amusing, enlightening and illuminating! :)
"We are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. There is no such thing as death, life is just a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves."
Bill Hicks really did have some proper gems, and if we all knew that we were one, and acted a tiny bit kinder to one another, the reality we've created for ourselves would be just a little bit less shit.
I'm worried that you might stop doing these for some reason or another eventually. Doing them daily must be difficult, especially with a busy schedule. I have found these so rewarding. In the last 3 weeks I have asked myself deep questions about the reality I believe we live in. What was once a confusing set of feelings, are know being verbalised by you. If EVERYONE could listen to these and be brave enough to accept/question these things, some how wake up from their sleep, a monumental change would happen in a click!
The book is: The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself by Michael A. Singer
I really enjoy when you speak about self development and opening up your mind to greater consciousness.
This idea of separation and emotional detachment is ever present in all religious / spiritual / esoteric practices, and its so common and powerful it bleeds into the pop culture, I wasn't aware of this before. Thanks Rusell!
PS: easy to notice, I tend to focus on your spiritual ramblings than the actual news commentary.
Yeah, Russell. Great episode. Saw you in Ottawa. So good. I liked it when you read from the book you are into in this Trues episode. Love the spirit wisdom. Keep shining bright, brother! Love
I love the spiritual readings, they're actually really helpful. Also you're hilarious.
love this russell keep it up
particularly great episode of trews and sincerely, the highlight of my night.
I love seeing your face in my subscription box every day, Russell :D
I'm pissed out of my skull and currently on two weeks holiday in mecca (bingo hall).
This budget was just what me as a worn out, worn down, hard working Brit needed.
Love your show, Russell, you are starting to become one of my favorite celebrities.. keep educating people with your humor! Friggen hilarious!
Brian
In Swansea, Massachusetts
Russell, your 'trews' is one of the things that makes me smile everyday. FANKS!
I have watched every single trews video and I've subscribed and I will watch everyone you upload russell
Listening to Russel makes me feel good smart and funny and furious
Awesome as usual. Loving these rants. Good on ya.
Also - I imagine you're probably only the second West Ham fan (after me!) to have read and become passionate about The Untethered Soul... a seriously powerful read.
PS come on you Happy Hammers!
Are we really getting 2p off a pint of bitter? Fucking YES MAN! Brilliant.
Bahaha
Thats nothing compared to going to most other countries and getting it for a fraction of the price with higher alcoholic content, we are totally being screwed.
Engaging, informative, and digestible ... This is how any modern 'revolution' will move forward ... Change is happening. Good job Russ me'old mate!!
Russell you're amazing, love your ideas and the way you understand and see the world. I only wish everyone could really get a hold of this and change our freaking media. I loved your bit in Messiah Complex about how our senses are limited, so of course we can't see and experience everything there is in the Universe. I believe we were created that way on purpose because we were not meant to be able to understand everything in the "spiritual realm". I don't think our human minds could handle it! Love the excerpts from the books, and just thank you for sharing yourself in this intimate way with the world. :) and to the haters, get over it, it's just one man's perception of the world. My dad always told me perception is nine tenths of reality.. ; )
Brand and Rogen, what an epic collaboration that would be!
It would be powerful!
Please make this a daily series Russell !
it already is...
There is more insight and good philosophy in this 1 vid than first meets the eye,,, well said Russ,, top man!!!
Thanks Russ! this injection of the real every morning is starting my day off with the biggest smile!
-btw in my dream the other night you had a NEW BORN BABY in your room and when i approached it it stood up and said hello! so good luck to ya
Like a locomotive racing down the tracks of truth! (fuck... that sounds like a headline!) Russell, your in tune.
Woohoo nice one russ! And great mention of Bill Hicks, I was thinking of him when you said that we can get off the ride at any time, and then you go and mention him :-)
WHY DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS? Whether or not it is his opinion (please dont argue its sensationalist, it exists in the polarised ridiculous world that it does), it is atleast a genuine opinion on the reality of media distortion taken from his personal perspective. We have Media Watch in Aus that does it very much the same only with a less satirical take (no idea whether or not you Brits have the same level of media analysis, assume you do) and those are the things everyone needs to stay as informed as possible.
Brand's word is not gospel. however atleast its a consumable way of interpreting the information. In itself being an indictment on the consumption of media as a whole.
because he's not talking about his winkie...
This guy is like the son of Chris in the morning! I loved the cancelling our debt comparison.
Another quality report. Agree with your line about the head and the red briefcase
Russell the recondite man explaining the mundane, wonderful.
Love hanging out with Russell
funny , brilliant and real . you made my day again :-)
loving the Trews x
Just kidding, keep em coming Russell, I'm starting to look forward to my daily dose of Trews x
Brilliant Russel! you are a selfless being.
Awesome video, I understand what you're saying at the end too... so true
This is awesomesauce russell!
This was the most informed and complete analysis of the banking crisis produced yet. I mean, he doesn't seem to understand the difference between debt and equity, but that aside, it is a peerless review of the global financial crisis.
You used a segment of Bill Hicks line. I was just in the middle of noticing it, then you reference him..."It's just a ride."
So inspiring.. thank you
Lovely edition, Russell.
I wouldn't want to live in a bubble of unconditional happiness though. I'm fine with just moments of happiness. If there was happiness all the time, happiness as a concept would cease to exist. We'd just call it 'the status quo'.
I'd rather have meaning, than unending happiness.
But that's just me.
ive noticed that alot of people are starting to wake up and realise what a corrupt and crazy society we live in..what these higher powers fail to realise is that people evolve and come to realise whats going on..thankyou russell for speaking the truth.hopefully people will get to grips with this info and start a revolution :0
Extra points for mentioning Bill Hicks
Finally someone who shares the same views as me..
Rusty, love your work. Fight the power! Just a minor criticism, you seem to have shifted slightly to just taking the piss out of whatever you see in the newspaper. For example, what's wrong with scientists trying to figure out the world. Do you really think they're not aware of the arbitrary nature of time and our calendar systems? Also guides trying to promote a health body image. To get those badges they have to demonstrate genuine understanding of the concept and surely that's a good thing? Anyway, aside from that I love what you're doing and it's the first thing I watch every day. Thanks for being a voice for all the like minded people who would otherwise feel a bit alone and rejected by society, culture and it's various constructs.
Russel needs to do more to rally the masses
Why does Russel have to do it? Why don't you?
TheCausation you seem to have missed the point of Russel's argument. Let's stop being defeatist and work to change this docility, because at the end of the day it is all an illusion, a dream, and if you've ever practiced lucid dreaming then you know that reality is much more fluid that 1984 would have us believe.
Hahaha! Best trews yet! And the end was amazing. Your cringe face hahaha! Laughter is the best medicine and Russell you are the truth! #brightsoul
love. gratitude!
Russell Brand is a credit to the ability of people to transcend the narrow, marginalised boundaries that we choose to circumscribe ourselves by.
Yes, he is hilariously funny, but he is also a constant reminder that the degree with which we choose to engage with the fabricated narrative of the media, is up to us. Like the Beatles said "love is all you need". The rest is utter bullshit and pointless distraction.
4 min 49 second mark and so on until the book; you made me want to tear up.. very sad
Hi Russell, I must confess that after listening to yourself and Noam Chomsky I have given up listening to the news or reading the tabloid media as it seems as if I'm just being spoon feed lies in order to keep me complaicent and stupid. I have written a novel incorporating this facade and it set in the otherworld of English folklore. I would be honoured if you would give it a read at your leisure. Regards, Vincent
Awesome Ep, stoked to know the name of that book. Cheers Russ.
love this dude!
Cancelling debt it easy.
"Mary you're a single parent who owes us £1500 for childcare.......tell you what you are working and bringing money into society.....you don't owe us anything"
Takes 2 seconds and doesn't cost anything
Does anyone know the name of that book Russell was reading from? Or Russell, if you're reading this and wouldn't mind letting me know :-) Thank you.
If I were the camera person, I'd get fired for laughing.
I LOVE THE INTRO/OUTRO!!!
Nice to see the great Bill Hicks got a mention :D
howard yearley I appreciate your comment sir, very kind of you. I appreciate Russell isn't everyone's cup of tea but each to their own I guess =)
I wish people like him ran the governments. He is truly a truth teller.
Absolutely amazing. O, Joy!
This made my night, your not alive you are life
Just to let you know Russell, there are people writing dissertations in universities about your work.
I know what the answer is to all my problems. I know what keeps me down. I know how I feel about the universe and divinity. Why do I still feel so scared?
Thanks, as always you made my day..
Hey Russell I love the trews thank you for making it. Have you ever read 'The Power of Now' by Eckhart Tolle. I read it a year and a half ago and it has completely changed me (for the better ;) ). Would love it if you read something from it, I think Eckhart has a way of making these concepts accessible and easy to understand. Going to download The Untethered Soul now :)
You should do audio book recordings. It would be lovely!
Ahh. One mentioned Bill Hicks. One may also venture onto George Carlin. One must be very weary young Mr Brand that was also was mentioned by Bill was the ones that made us aware of the injustices of society and the illusion of reality where the ones taken out. Please be careful and know that they that be will only take so much. I luv what u do and hope that one day we can all look back at this hypocrisy and say.... whooooo.... that was weird. Luv you man . Take care.
This was a good episode.
Thanks for the title Russell!
"Could We Cancel Debt?"
In a word, YES! Private debt cancellation and government debt accumulation are the *only* ways we get money into our economies in the first place!
The fact of the matter is that we're going to get the same problem though if we don't fundamentally change the way money is issued.
Research: Steve Keen, Michael Hudson, Warren Mosler
Russell - Please do an Oz trews. You'd have a field day.
We can and we should sometimes. Everybody read about Island :) It is time for more fair and conscious banking and financial policies.
That shoes thing was Penny's idea from big bang theory :)
There are some things I refuse to detach from. I refuse to detach from those I love, the subject I study and aim to help alleviate the worlds hunger, there are things worthwhile to stay attached to. If I where completely detached from everything that in my view is apathy. I also think a world where people suffer is flawed and cannot completely agree with all existance and it should be changed so that more people can have the opportunity to obtain happiness.
I would vote for Russell
Great video once again dude. You should check out Michael Tellinger and his UBUNTU liberation movment. The guy had some serious and practical ideas regarding a moneyless society. He's also involved in some court cases against the big banksters. Check out the three part video on this here youtube machine, I think your ideologies would meld nicley and if that where the case a public figure like yourself could be of great assistance in raising conscious awareness for the UBUNTU movment. One love brother.
A lot of people seem to be missing- Russell isn't actually an MP, or a political force. He's an entertainer with a lot of self indulgent qualities which happen to be amusing. Let's not take it all so seriously
***** You just gave me a giggle. Best reply, friend. lol
I am GRATEFULL:warmly and deeply appreciative of benefits recieved,I am grateful that this man has taken the path of enlightenment because he is in a position to help many people.He certainly is lighting the path for me....TREWLY!!!!!!
