He has kind and gentle eyes His words are full of wisdom. A hero that has saved many lives He truly deserves a nice place to live with NO RESTRICTIONS !
This man should have been a lawyer or a doctor he was dealt a bad hand but he still has a sense of eloquence . I will surely pray for his soul bc if living on the streets is tranquil life has really been hard for him .
Pete, you’re a celebrity in my family. My father is a retired Major. He’s not one for expressing his feelings (imagine that). I’ve caught him on numerous occasions smiling and laughing watching your interviews. Thank you for allowing yourself to be vulnerable and share your life story with the world.
Repeat has amazing insight into his family of origin issues. I'm sure prison provided groups and therapy enabling him to gain insight into his childhood trauma. That's the first step to recovering from childhood trauma. I would love for him to get therapy at his local county mental health facility. If he has a probation officer he could get inked to his county services free of charge. I know for me, I had to feel the pain of my past in order to liberate myself from it. Grieving was excruciatingly painful but I'm liberated from my past. The price of freedom is high but always worth it. Alberto Einstein said " The true value of a human being is determined primarily by the measure and the sense in which he has attained liberation from the self." I'm sending Repeat nothing but good vibes and prayers.
I thought he was leaving to get a job a few months ago. I’ve been thinking about him and what a shining star he is. I love this guy. I so wish he could find happiness and contentment. He’s a wealth of information and knowledge. Wish I could help him somehow.This one is special.
This really hit home, I'm so sad for him for what he went through as a child. Hearing him say that if he hears someone screaming rather than run away, he runs toward them because they might need help..such a kind soul♥️♥️♥️ I'd love to be able to hug this man.
I’m sad to hear of Hye Jung’s passing 😔 She was hurting… mentally and physically. The drug was the only way she knew how to make herself feel something. I feel like she had high functioning depression. Rest In Peace ✨ I hope that Repeat gets his wish and finds peace and quiet in a new place. He deserves happiness too💙
Wow!! Angels come in so many different ways. I know I have encountered some personally. And I thank them because our encounters have never left me. Repeat you are an angel on this wicked earth. Much love!!
Thank you, Mark. I have been waiting for an update on Repeat. I admire his willingness to be vulnerable and forthcoming in your interviews. Just as he wants to protect people from harm, your viewers want to see him win at life. He has a brilliant mind and a compassionate heart. The love he has for his brother and the care he is providing to others, I hope someday he can give to himself. I'm grateful to have met Kelly and Bonafide through your channel. You humanized two women, with two very different stories, that the world sees as >, RIP ladies.
I'm so sad to know that she's passed. Oh my god. I remember her interview. I was expecting an update on her at some point. She looked too fragile for that life....This is messed up.
Mate, I've been there, I can't tell you what to do, I don't know what you're going through, I will never judge you. But please, fight as long as you can bro.

I remeber when i got released from prison, the first night i just walked and walked and walked for hours... That feeling of freedom was so intense i never felt that free in my life ever again...
wow, I will actually cry if I hear that something bad happened to him. Great interview. He is so intelligent. I hate that society failed him along the way growing up because he should have been something great. He still can actually!!
“It’s time for me to go, I’m tired of watching movies around every corner.” He sounds so exhausted. I really hope he finds peace and stability. He deserves it! I hope he comes back for an update, I really want to see him happy.
Yeah! He does sound exhausted this time. I fear he may not leave, not able to make it out of this tunnel. What a good soul! A seriously flawed but essentially good soul! Ouch!
Thank you Repeat for all you've done and continue to do for all those lost souls. I really believe "Kelly" was so very, very tired. So deeply conflicted. She's at peace now. Don't forget to look out for yourself though, because you're needed. Bigtime. The Row is truly Dante's 10th circle. And, PLEASE watch yourself if and when you do CPR on an overdose because if it's fentanyl - if could be still present on their mouth and transferable. God bless you sir💕
I love this Brother like a real brother. I listened to I think all of his stories and I just wanna shake his hand and hug him like a brother and never let him go. Repeat. Man God bless you and your family
So it was her , that sad she was kind , skid row was. Not her, but it ate her up . Damn that hurts, her interview was so raw. Totally understand her circumstance.
Super intelligent and articulate man. He’s a teacher in a way. Full of wisdom. He should write a damn book. He fought for our country and this is where he is. Pisses me off.
This man is very intelligent and has a lot of integrity. Not because he won't do a program, but because he honored his own human dignity in the face of so much peer pressure.
Very chill brutha...he was in my dorm in wayside... Extremely knowledgeable and just good vibes. He's started to teach me about racing horses. Sadly we never got to finish the lesson..but gladly we couldn't because we got out.
Repeat....Thank you for sharing brother. I'm so sorry you had to witness the things you did as a child. It's not fair. I tried to cut my wrists when I was 6 years old with scissors. This was back in 1978..i wanted my Mothers crys to stop. My Father would beat her so bad in front of me...i just wanted it all to stop. I can not imagine now, as a adult.. how a 6 year old would even know or want to kill themselves. I only share this horror story because I believe adults should know the impact of their actions. When my Dad put the shot gun to her head..she finally left. 💜💜💜💜💜 Being aware of our own actions is the first step in making a change.
Took the words right out of my mouth. He's like the angel of Skid Row. So much he could offer to this world and he seems to understand that. Wishing him only the best.
I watched the interview with Kelly before i watched this interview, i didn't know!! Thank you Repeat for what you did. I wish nothing but the best for you..
Your demeanor is soothing, your humility makes me feel strong, with urgency to keep up with your good will, your own strength, and resilience. I hope you find somewhere to settle where you can shine, put down roots, find your home. Good luck on your journey.
I feel you man I’m 20 going on 21 years in about a month my father was a alcoholic and a drug addict my whole childhood and all of my adolescence me and my siblings were surrounded by nothing but chaos I’m blessed because I realize that sooner rather then later when I see people like you it’s messed but I look at you and I’m just glad happy because I’ve realized I’ve changed and matured a lot since then
It is a shame City Councils do not see even a 5 minute clip of this. Saying, look housing (if you people want to offer it) is great... but I am a grown man! A Vet! A good person. House me or do not. No one should be telling me when to come in. So many people can not sleep at night for many reasons. If it was entirely his place he could come and go as he pleased without accounting to anyone about anything. Unless or until a resident becomes a problem in the same exact way you or I might in an apartment, unless a sensible rule is broken... he should be offered housing period. No strings attached. No Vet should be on the street. He more than earned his Freedom and it is ridiculous anyone is “Should - ing” all over him. If he wants therapy he knows he can get it. Forced therapy is utterly useless.
Annie, you're right but there's two sides to this story. Maybe, he doesn't want to do right. Maybe, all those requirements are temp and u can transition into independent living. He seems all there and capable of living on his own and supporting himself. We don't know the whole story. God bless his heart.
@@jazzmia123 sorry, I meant it rhetorically, as some have refused shelter. I totally agree with you. That’s the least we can do for them after they’ve done so much for us. US wouldn’t be worth living in without our Veterans’ sacrifices.
The children on Skid Row who desire to go to college or university, who benefit GREATLY from Repeat if he wanted to do SAT/ACT prep for the English/Reading sections.
If you leave, your brother may just follow your example. And if not, at least one of you will have a happier life. You can be there for other family members, like your grandchildren. They would love you so much. Give yourself that chance. You've got so much wisdom to share. May God bless you and lead you where you will shine the brightest and where you will find joy and much peace.
Him tellng the story of hye jung was so heartbreaking, i remember watching her interview a long while ago. What an awful story, i feel so bad for her. Repeat truly is a wonderful person and i wish him the best.
God bless this man, I hope he finds hope and GOD, and God bless this channel, this needs to be a Netflix series so the world can see it’s not about black and white it’s about all people struggling with the same abuse and addiction, and are in need of help in every which way. Wake up America we have to make the next generation better and break all these evil cycles.🙏🏾
So many powerful stories. Especially reuniting with his brother, im just imagining being someone who frequents the areas who would shout, thinking hes crazy and hearing his screams like clockwork every day until i finally see him find his brother and having everything suddenly make sense. And those words "i cant do another program i wont do another program even if i have to live on the streets" god how powerful
I totally understand what he's saying and respect him for it. It's not freedom when someone tells you when to do it where to do it or how long to do it. We are free human beings, born with our freedoms. The sooner more people realize that, the better off this country will be.
Thank you Mark...you are amazing! I set my alarm every day to 5 am to watch your videos..,yes I’m subscribed, yes I always like EVERY video ...can you tell us how we can help YOU??? I have very few heroes in my life... most days I want to give up...thank you for continuing to post...because of you I continue not to give up. Never underestimate the difference you make. No one in my life knows...I’m not on drugs...but I’m ready to give up. He’s right you don’t tell others...you just become another statistic
Somewhere there is someone that needs your story so they, too, cannot give up. Big Brother. Big Sister is a good start. Working with teens helped me🙏 Don't give up! Society needs you, too💪. Love from Nashville 💞 Mark has a GoFundMe.
@@KimbradleyMasterGardener Well said🙌🏽💖✨ I wanted to give some kind and encouraging advice, but just couldn’t find the right words yet.... (just waking up) then I saw your comment and it made me smile. Hopefully “Nyl”gets the same vibe. Have a blessed Sunday💞
I Love “Repeat” ✨❤️✨... He’s getting tired, I pray he will get his own place, experience peace of mind, freedom, love, and comfort ... 🍃🍃🕊. Sometimes you have to save yourself, others will take you down their path and both of you will end up in the Dark 🕳... 😢 〰️〰️〰️ 🙏🏽🆙
I feel you ,Repeat. As soon as I hear "program", it's over. People get tired of being treated like this when they need assistance. The "program" is structurally abusive and triggering by default bc its not genuine.
Haha it’s crazy he just explained everything mark said about putting these homeless people in a home .. they won’t stay their because their freedom is going to be taken away from them and that’s the last thing they want .. I think the only thing we can do is bring awareness about how important it is to really love and nurture a child ;especially early on in their lives . I hope I’m one day able to bring awareness especially to low income families & first generation kids from immigrants . I know it has taken me a long time to even figure out that I’m not like other people . Now I’m just in that journey of learning how to heal , forgive myself for all the things I’ve done to myself and just be present and happy 🤍
Repeat, idk if this is up your alley but I do know goodwill does let you volunteer without a background check. Goodwill will hire on those who show they want work. Volunteer work will be great for your resume. It's not much but it's a start. Hope you find your way to the right path.
@11:27 Repeat refers to himself as "taciturn" and I agree with his assessment. He is incredibly eloquent and articulate while also managing to give off an air of the proverbial laconic cowboy.
Psychologists ask a question of people who have been through trauma, the answer shows a lot (think hard about the answer!): Repeat, if you ever read this, try answering this one question: 'If there were wild bears in your area, threatening to hunt down everyone, would you go to deal with them alone?' If your answer is 'yes', it means that you've had to cope with so much alone but you've not yet learned that asking for support and help is STREGNTH. It is NOT 'control from others, it's others offering you something that you've never tried. It's fear that makes us avoid offers of help. We can try them and if they are crap, give it up. If we don't even try the offers, what is this saying? Good luck to you Repeat.
Love you Repeat! I have a lot of favorite interviewees- but Repeat is hands down my favorite. Also- he reminds me of the main Black dude on Walking Dead. The one who walks (and speaks softly) and carries a big stick. I too was a Black kid who loved etymology- and casually used words like etymology... but I also had the natural gift of code-switchin' effortlessly without tryin'. And I'm a woman, and high yella... so am received differently. Edit: I wrote this before he talked about the baseball bat. *I put some of that no-slip sandpaper tape for stairs on my baseball bat- guess mine ain't a sport tool. I feel ya tho Repeat!

Haha it’s crazy he just explained everything mark said about putting these homeless people in a home .. they won’t stay their because their freedom is going to be taken away from them and that’s the last thing they want .. I think the only thing we can do is bring awareness about how important it is to really love and nurture a child ;especially early on in their lives . I hope I’m one day able to bring awareness especially to low income families & first generation kids from immigrants . I know it has taken me a long time to even figure out that I’m not like other people . Now I’m just in that journey of learning how to heal , forgive myself for all the things I’ve done to myself and just be present and happy 🤍
Much love, Repeat.
Wish I could've met you.
That Goodbye Sounds Different 🙏🏾 Some may see him choosing I see depression despair hopelessness repeat I hope you find your way
Just came across Repeat, what a beautiful soul...
This is The realest of real talk!! Keep ur head up brother!👊🏿👊🏿
I just wish he would look up when he speaks. 🤦🏽♀️ He reminds me of a calmer DMX for some reason.
Daphnee D, I dont think he looks up because of the shame he feels from his past. I know that was true for me.
@@reginaarnone4845 😣😭
This video should go viral for so many reasons.
I’m so sad to hear about Kelly. 💔😔
Repeat, idk if this is up your alley but I do know goodwill does let you volunteer without a background check. Goodwill will hire on those who show they want work. Volunteer work will be great for your resume. It's not much but it's a start. Hope you find your way to the right path.
@11:27 Repeat refers to himself as "taciturn" and I agree with his assessment. He is incredibly eloquent and articulate while also managing to give off an air of the proverbial laconic cowboy.
Beautifully said. I hope he is doing okay.
Amazing guy. Amazing storyteller. Wish you the best.
Repeat is trying to save people like he did when he was young trying to save his mother
i had just watched Kelly before this. That's so sad she died.
I’m pulling for this guy so so much
Psychologists ask a question of people who have been through trauma, the answer shows a lot (think hard about the answer!): Repeat, if you ever read this, try answering this one question: 'If there were wild bears in your area, threatening to hunt down everyone, would you go to deal with them alone?' If your answer is 'yes', it means that you've had to cope with so much alone but you've not yet learned that asking for support and help is STREGNTH. It is NOT 'control from others, it's others offering you something that you've never tried. It's fear that makes us avoid offers of help. We can try them and if they are crap, give it up. If we don't even try the offers, what is this saying? Good luck to you Repeat.
Love this guy, man I'm getting teary eyed..
Repeat thank you for your service sir. I wish you the sir.thank you for sharing your story
Great interview. Thank you, Repeat, for giving us a new insight into why some people choose homelessness. A reason I always suspected.
This guys segments have been pretty interesting.
I really hope he makes it out. He’s saved lives and seems like a good guy.
Although he wants to leave...he ain’t ready yet-he said-he ain’t signing in in no program....
right and he will need a program away from california that will work if he wants out.
Love you Repeat! I have a lot of favorite interviewees- but Repeat is hands down my favorite. Also- he reminds me of the main Black dude on Walking Dead. The one who walks (and speaks softly) and carries a big stick.
I too was a Black kid who loved etymology- and casually used words like etymology... but I also had the natural gift of code-switchin' effortlessly without tryin'. And I'm a woman, and high yella... so am received differently.
Edit: I wrote this before he talked about the baseball bat. *I put some of that no-slip sandpaper tape for stairs on my baseball bat- guess mine ain't a sport tool. I feel ya tho Repeat!
