I lived in Belfast during the troubles and I always had friends from both communities. Nobody has to be a bigot. The real tough guys are the ones who didn't get involved and made the peace.
Good man, a man after my own heart mate, I grew up in the Shankill road area, always had friend on "the other side", even in the 70's-80's when the trouble was high, 50 years old now and I still can go to any one of the mates I had back then for a cup of coffee or a roof over my head if needed.
Well said Paul . I lived in the greater Belfast area during the Troubles . I guess I would identify myself as a Unionist / Loyalist . But I also had friends from both communities and thats a major reason why I did not get involved .
@andrew chambers Historically the Catholics are right ...hmm that's a pretty broad statement , care to elaborate how's the Catholics are right ? If you are meaning that the Ulster Scots came in and pushed them off the land , well I would say its was not their land anyway.The Celtic tribes invaded Ireland , Scotland and Wales from what is present day France and Germany. No one has ownership of the land if you want to wind the clock back far enough .So no you are wrong , the Catholics are not right..
@Pablo Escobar No one owns the land ....Please prove me wrong Cabron......if you can ?
@Pablo Escobar No one owns the land but I do not condone the things that were done by Oliver Cromwell against the Irish ,.
As an American I've always been confused because it's never truly been explained to me. Listening to you gentlemen talk, it all becomes quite clear. Thank you very much for this
In the tenth century britan tryed to invade Ireland and over the next 600 year's Ireland fought Britain then Cromwellian force's tried and failed although they did inflict bloody casualty's on the the Irish but then in the 1600s the Scottish Protestant came to the North of Ireland then came the rebellion's And rebellion's And rebellion's in the early part of the 20th century the IRA came into their own fighting the black and tans having losses but also having Victories such as kilmickal in1919 under general Tom Barry And then the provisional IRA came into being with Bobby sand's who actually died on Hunger strike in 1981

Worked with a Irish lad in Kuwait, he left Ireland to get away from the troubles n a week from lading in Kuwait, Iraq invaded lol
He’s right about the kids being scared..he drove past us 1 night in a big Ford Sierra and just looked at us....we shit ourselves and ran home n told are mas.they were mad days and Adair was a mad man
As an Irishman i have alot of issues with Johnny adair but an honest interview!
Agree I had grown up hearing horror stories about Johnny Adair but I find it very interesting hearing the other sides story
In the 90s we got told of the s/k butchers
I miss when he was on cowboy builders
What 😂
Uk Auto 😂😂 ringer
😂😂😂😂he's a cowboy on run
Brilliant haha
Dominic littlewood 😂 dont get dom get done 😂😂🏃🏽♂️
This is why this channel is the best on youtube the diversity of the guests and the stories they have to tell Johnny has been through so much and is still here to tell the tale keep it up James
Mark Lee thanks mark
I am a full blown Republican with a strong family history . I know that this bastard is a murderer . But i respect Johnnys Change . He speaks some truth and has made realisations that would have helped him 40 years ago
maybe he changed because he had no choice.he was booted out of the shankill??

Il check Google.. but did Johnny kill a protestant & just order the murders of catholics
Would of loved to see him and a republican talk it would be class
Would inevitably have so much in common but obviously from an opposing viewpoint

Getting him and Jackie McDonald to talk would be even better.

The war is over,johnny accepted that ,Now the rest need to do the same ,,Very good Honest interview. Very true words well done.
Hi James how are you doing today
Wars Not over Not by a long shot my friend ;-)
No he didn't he wanted to keep it going but had to jump ship to Scotland n England coz his OWN were going to nut him; whys he not bk on shankill Rd?
@@michealmcleery6148 billy big balls sitting in his ma's attic for God n ulster, keyboard warriors unite, whoops you don't like the 'u' word do you loyalists (loyal to paedos)
@James Thompson No Johnny needs another "war" from under the cover of which he can carry out his criminal activities.
Whatever about him turning his life around, I think people watching this video should know that Adair wasn't some loyalist hero fighting the IRA, he never even killed a single IRA member, he used to kill Catholics at random
At Adair's trial in 1995, the prosecuting lawyer said he was dedicated to his cause against those whom he "regarded as militant republicans - among whom he had lumped almost the entire Roman Catholic population".
If you think that just because it ain’t in a court document that he killed anyone in the IRA means he didn’t you surely arent thinking right guy had c company who carried out assassinations n such
Yes, mate.I suspected as much.
Interviewer has a good flow and natural good relations, especially to get Johnny to speak so frankly and honestly
Got too honest. I'm not the biggest Adair fan. But this shows what a good interviewer James is. And fair play to Adair for opening up. Good work.
he forgot to say that he had to join the uda because he was getting knee capped for house breaking

As an Irish man I grew up waiting for this man to be assassinated. Could have been done but he was a loose cannon and the term “give him enough rope and he’ll hang himself” was used. His own people turned on him he was that foolish. Listening to this I was surprised, he sounds more intelligent than some people you’ve interviewed. Nice to hear him say we are all human which we are. I have nothing against this chap because he done more damage to his own people than he could have to any catholic. Has he changed his criminal way? Sounds like it but we’ll see. Good interview lads 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

James English has got the best pod cast on TH-cam another decent interview 👌
Scott Cee thanks scott
Maybe best from UK. Not close too JRE.
james coull the best on TH-cam a said (THE BEST) 🤣
And this moron adair is his worst interviewee... A complete moron..
What a fascinating interview, as an Englishman, I genuinely cannot imagine the hardship and brutality that so many Belfast folk experienced, it really saddens me, deeply. For me, it matters not that this man was Protestant or Catholic, for in reality he could have been either. I hope Belfast has a rosier future with the peace process. But every word was fascinating.
He didn't tell the truth though
It wasnt just Belfast, it was across all of NI.
Hardship and brutality was caused by people like him on both sides. All terrorists, evil psychopaths and guilty of murders.
This is brilliant stuff James. Great podcast. Johnny certainly has broad shoulders & a pit bull mentality. You've got a canny way of getting your guests relaxed & at ease with you instantly. Good stuff. Bless up bro 👊

@@monkeybone39 he was there with his wife lol
Big Edd should have done it properly good try Johnny Adair is a rat
I understand the history of Ireland and the horror & sadness of the "troubles" but putting that aside, I can see both sides; those that wanted sovereignty & those that felt they wanted to stay with the UK. Always for me though, is the overwhelming sadness that this happened at all. Ireland is a beautiful country & the Irish are utterly fantastic people. I hope now that they will all live in peace but I think it won't be possible as we all now face new enemies, but at least now we can stand together to face them. God bless Ireland & for different believers ...may you be happy & live in peace.xx
A very honest interview from Johnny to be fair.
Coming from a Republican your bound to say that
liam mellows1916 Who do you think people will believe? You who’s Typing away on the internet, who can prove absolutely nothing. Or this guy, who’s publicly known. Because when you break things down, I’m pretty sure more people will pay attention to him than you. Maybe you can get on a podcast & tell us all
I agree Johnny is an honest man .his IQ is second to done .all them lies about Johnny poisoning his own community with drugs and killing a man who had special needs were obviously republican propaganda designed to blacken Johnny's good name . ⚓Anker

Great interview, I live in NI there is still hatred on both sides to this day, never will it be back to the old days but unfortunately both sides will never trust other and 1st time u meet a new person like workdays etc it's good to try and figure out which religion the person is so as incase the wrong thing can't be said, I come from a loyalist village and I respect Adair, hes telling everything with true words. Unfortunately paramilitaries are still recruiting to this day.
Whomever you are, you can't be blamed for where and when you where your born.
Never disappointed James, you always deliver brilliant guests. I grew up in the Gorbals on the opposite side of Adair, but we get to understand what life was like on his side. Thanks!!!
Hi Ray how are you doing today
@@jeanettestilwell2369 are you from the Gorbals too?
He was a sectarian butcher who only murder
I'm a Loyalist but I wish he would stop saying Protestant's and Catholic's. I'm not one to tell someone like Adair what the conflict was about (he's lived it) but I've always thought it was far, far more political than religious. A lot of the original fenians (in the true definition of the word) were Protestant.
@Oliver 2000 yeah I do get that, I just feel bringing religion into it makes the conflict sound something it really isn't. In my opinion.
@@GeorgeSquare It was religious on the Protestant side.
@@adammartin7007 shut up
@@GeorgeSquare No
Yep I’m a republican, and always saw it as a conflict over national identity rather than religion.
I lived in N.I in the 90's. At that time the local kids would say they were UFF or UDA associated to try make people fear them. But in reality they were just scrotes who dealt drugs. Everyone else was so sick of the troubles. It was a brilliant place to live, everyone was super friendly (except a couple of psychos), but the partying got too hard for me and I almost died. So I came back home to England. Within 6 months, several of my friends were dead from heroin overdoses. It was fucked up.
Heroin problem in the 90s northern Ireland? Not doubting you but where? Belfast, Portadown or Londonderry?

Fantastic interview ! Very honest ! And that’s all a man like me enjoys ! ,,,,Paul ferris interveiw was brilliant and so was the blink McDonald interveiw 👍! ,,,,,...............in this world of lying politicians / police etc I really enjoy the story’s and lives of true down to earth people ! Great show james !
true down to earth people? They're bandits.
I’d rather listen to these people than lying politicians! My point being ,,,,a spade is a spade not a pitchfork.
The way he says he respect the hunger strikers. Make mes respect the man.
Interesting. Hate his politics but respect his honesty. It’s positive as a Republican/Nationalist to gain this type of insight. One thing I can’t understand is the constant reference to Catholic Vs Protestant. For me, it’s the British invasion and oppression I’m against, not people with alternative religious views.
It would be a great follow up to interview a Republican with similar status. I’m sure there would be many commonalities
He would probably say 'protestant' denotes British identity in Northern Ireland and opposition to republicanism as opposed to anything doctrinal
Nick Thompson True
The sort of nonsense that continues in these written posts talk about “ a British Invasion and oppression”. Those who consider themselves “ British” ( mainly but not exclusively Protestant) have been on the Island for at least 400 years and many descended from the clans who lived in County Antrim and the West coast of Scotland for millennia ( long preceding the Reformation). The Irish tribes also invaded the bigger island. One would imagine that after 400 years Irish Protestants might not be considered an invader - with their own rights and national identity. That sort of talk that considers Protestants as foreigners would be considered racist in any other context and would bode very badly for those who claim a United Ireland would respect Unionist rights.
@@PaulJohnston-n5wno, Unionists are very much part of Ireland; its culture, heritage and make up.
It’s British government policy and action on the island of Ireland that can never be forgiven.
So what you appear to be saying is that Unionists are welcome as long as they are no longer Unionists. We will get rid of the Union but you can still call yourself Unionists!. Unionists would have to cut off the political and economic structures of Government with the rest of their nation ( the UK/ British) but still call themselves Unionists. Plus how could Unionists be comfortable being part of an Ireland that lionises the people who used violence in trying to deny them their political rights to remain part of their nation of choice. Many Protestant Unionists were extremely badly treated including massacres in the southern counties during the War of Independence eg The Dunmanway/ Bandon Valley Killings. Did anybody believe that Protestants in the North would wish to join a State where Pogroms were being carried out on their relatively small percentage of Co- religionists. A State in which even Catholics came to resent Church domination of social and political life -where the Church constructed a culture of silence with the State as it abused its most vulnerable citizens. The Protestant population in the South greatly reduced and many were not regarded as proper or loyal citizens . As for the later troubles from the 70s onwards - the IRA planted Bombs in Protestant areas like the La Mon hotel where I think , from memory , it was the local Collie dog breeders who were having a meeting - 12 were killed and many more were disabled for life because of a Napalm substance that had been added by Republican terrorists. Unionists ( Presbyterians or whatever label you prefer) - consider themselves British but trying to force them to do something brings out a stubborn resistance that the Americans defined as classically “Scots- Irish”. Republicans continued many sectarian murders such as stopping a work bus and singling out the Protestants for murder - some of them children begging for their mothers. Of course , people will say “what about ? “ this or that on the other side . That is not the point I am making. I am saying that there were many things that means that many from a Protestant/ Unionist tradition who may have wanted some sort of closer relationship with the Republic were greatly sickened by Republicans who tried to use violence to force their political viewpoint upon them. Remember the Republican United Irishmen in the North were solidly Presbyterian but Irish Nationalism in the 19th century became Catholic and blood sacrifice orientated. The actions of this latest generation of blood thirsty sectarian Republicans from the 70s onwards means that Northern Protestants will remain solidly Unionist for many, many generations to come. And many will maintain that the island state is not for them . And they are even more determined to remain in the Union with the rest of Britain because of the murderous attempts to force them out against their express democratic wishes. Furthermore, attempts to force a quarter of the population of the island of Ireland into to a Unitary Irish State is likely to create another cycle of strife - this time with the Republic taking the place of the UK as the perceived aggressor . To replace Republicans versus the British state with Unionists/ Loyalists versus the Irish State is not what any decent person wants for the future of our Island.
@ James English - James you don’t need to explain yourself to me or anyone else but since it’s a public forum I’m going to ask you a few questions & pass on some thoughts. What type of interviewer are you aspiring to be? Light hearted, informal, general chat, & a bit of banter OR are you hoping to conduct serious interviews, asking difficult well researched questions that challenge the interviewee and the audience? If it’s the first option then crack on as is if it’s the second option then I’m going to pass on my thoughts. When interviewing anyone, but especially someone responsible for the crimes that jonny Adair has been accused and convicted of, handle it with great sensitivity and do your research. Asking questions like “have you wrote a book” “have you made a film” show how little, if any, research you’ve ldone. Also flippant questions such as “how many funerals have you been to” “what were the troubles about” when interviewing a person who most consider to be a key player both directly and indirectly in the murder and intimidation of many men women and children, is deeply insulting to your audience and borders on insensitivity towards the people (both Protestant & catholic) who have been victims of Jonny Adair and his infamous C unit. I enjoy what you do and wish you every success but as your podcast progresses and the subject matter becomes more serious choose your words, body language, and questions with a bit more care.
is that a book yu wrote lol,how long that take,gee james his due hes coming out his shell a bit more ,i found this interesting n im a tim,
Maybe if he was to be interviewing the way you would prefer then maybe just maybe half these guys would tell him to fuk off ??
Why don’t you do as you do and leave people make there own minds up ..
Tollcross123 what women and children did Johnny Adair kill you half wit. Killing kids and women was the provies speciality and you’ve a cheek to accuse someone of not knowing what they’re talking about? Idiot!!!
Listen ya fanny, the interview starts the same everytime.......look boss I don't start wae questions just start fae the beginning of your story
McR1D3R 007 that’s correct. What’s your point?
Making enemies of both the I.R.A .and the U.D.A. That has to be a first.
That was a fascinating conversation James .
You actually believe that shit you sad person, he was a tout that killed innocent catholics

True story I was on remand and so was young Johnny a think it was 2006-2007. At this time a held the bench press record of 145kilo. I am catholic and is protestant so he went over to pt hall and pushed out 150kilo. So 1 week later I pushed out 155. Rip young Johnny. ❤️

That's a mad interview talking to a drug Dealer who left a lot of protestant young people with horrible addiction
The man was operating in a war zone, troubles my arse , as I was in the same theatre , it's nice to see his humility shining through 👍👍👍
Belfast what a city after what it's been through, proud to be from East Belfast
Problem with Johnny's analysis is that the last 20 years of the troubles loyalists committed more murders. Also many of loyalist murders were against innocent catholics. Lastly Johnny was a drug dealer and rackateer and his organisation tortured his own community.
Martin Mullan mmm soso m8 bt Dnt completely agree he put in check We Badtards Joyriding etc which iv no probz wth even his own son got shot for fkn about #loyal to the Cause
He was part hero and part enemy to his own community. Criminality was no1.
People of Ireland (Southern and northern) better realise we have a common goal in riding ourselves of the yoke of globalism,and all it intails.
Stick a what in him Johnny, a pininim , a pinamam ,oh a pin in him lol ,soz mate but that had me in stitches lol

James “ Johnny you got shot in the head at a UB40 concert!! How did that feel?”🧐😂😂😂😂
He walked away ....enuff said ..
He said he got shot, they proved it was a lie.
Why can't we just all get along?
Seriously though, you can't judge anyone without being in their shoes, this man had his path carved out for him with social and political circumstances. As a Welshman and having the odd visit abroad I see all English Scottish and Irish as my fellow countrymen. ✌🏻
he even said if he was born down the road he would've likely been in the ira. Doesn't make anything right but circumstantial back then is true
@@frankb952 Yeah, a product of the environment, if it wasn't Johnny then it would have been someone else just as 'bad' as you don't see nice men leading groups like that.
He and others like him were prepared to do time and die for their cause. How many of us can judge having never been in that position?
Brilliant interview, James is the best podcaster going ,I've watched a few of his interviews and they're all really really interesting
Would love for you to talk to some ex Ira members for there perspective. Great to here both sides of the story.
31:08 Why’d you make him take his arms off the table? Watched it over and over and couldn’t understand...
It seems to be something to do with the mic, I caught it just as I read your comment.
No, his bracelet was making a noise and maybe rattling or scraping the table. Watch how James touches his own wrist to show.
Another cracking interview.....thanks James
Good to hear he is still about was wondering what he was up2, not heard anything about him since the danny dyer programs.
West Belfast Catholic who survived a drive by shooting by Johnny an his mates wen I was 12, loyalism is fucked in this day and age, adair done what he done and he owns it but he can see the bigger picture, we now have the DUP who are more dangerous than even mad dog was because they are trying to reignite the war

Just found this channel only on off chance Mr adair wow this guy is fooking amazing doing wa he did to change his life around is incredible I watched a crime show once about this guy and I was locked to this man I looked at other interviews but as of yet haven't come across any bigger than Mr adair wow thanks for this episode big up John adair you done wa you did time to live your life now my brother with kids missus leave the past behind wow again loved this interview wa a inspiration to do and not what to do lol I would love to go out for a beer with adair love it he is brilliant ❤
If he was such a Loyalist hero then why is he living in Scotland?
Because his ego got the better of him, he killed a leader who was much more respected than him and tried to take control and was swiftly expelled from the country.
His own were gonna shoot him

I'm English and have always found Loyalists intriguing. I get Irish Republicans- the allure is fighting for a historically oppressed people and nation (and of course, denomination), but the only allure of Loyalists seems like the classic "You're X- you hate Y, now get on with it" like any partizan area. I suppose as soon as one side becomes violent the "Other Side" want retribution (Not accusing one side of "Starting it"- I'm talking generally).
Fucking mental that this stuff can go so far. Divine license? Sod off. Maybe if we all accept magic is almost certainly not real there'll be less necessity for the extremism.
In a perfect world! Not the Irish story unfortunately
