James thanking Fuhad and telling us what he did for him as his FRIEND is literally what love is about and has to be one of the most gorgeous things I've ever heard
This friendship is one of the most healthy and nontoxic male friendships I’ve seen on or off camera. I wish them all many years of growth and success! Rem and Ellis too☺️
Last year I used to shower everyday at gym before going to uni because at home we had some serious financial issues but its really nice to look back and laugh now
I have my own terrible situations that I've been through in my life, when you get to the point of laughing about it while talking about it it's an awesome feeling.
@@MSUTAY13 tbh I don't have anyone that I could apply it to, I don't really have friends just 'work friends' but we're not cool like that outside of the workplace, im a loner 😂😂. Just appreciating.
I love James' testimony about Fuhad. It filled my soul with so much love. True friendships are hard to come by and even harder to maintain. Congrats to you both 💜
Not me laughing and hollering at the D-E-B-T / credit card/overdraft increase stories and fully relating to them coz that's me currently 🤣. The grind goes on.
I can relate to that waiting for midnight for funds to hit. Me and my mama and sister would go to a 24 hour grocery store or one that closed at midnight. We would go in at 11:45pm or so and shop slow af waiting for the food stamps to hit! One time they got on the speaker and was like "attn shoppers we will be closing in 5 minutes. Please make your way to the register now." we were the only people left in the store LMMFAO!!! So they were definitely talking to us lol. Usually the stores that closed at 12 would have a couple people in line for us to get behind... NOT THAT DAY! So I faked an injury to buy time but I couldn't stay on the floor for 3 fuqqin minutes. I "limped" to the register and my mother was trying not to laugh. It was 11 fiftyfuckingnine when the lady finished ringing our stuff up. So we faked like we couldn't find the card for the next like 40 seconds until midnight hit. Then we swiped the card and walked out the store with our stuff (which we had already started eating in the aisles because we were starving) and I was so happy I forgot I was supposed to be limping. 😂😂😂😂😂 I put all this in my book 😩
I knew there was a reason james bought him that ride, you can tell they have history and a love for each that goes beyond a couple of years and a podcast. Fuhad is a real one and james recognized that and appreciated it. you always remember the ones who were down for you
The Weekly to monthly thing killed me!! Been there! But when did I realise I was broke? 11th January 2019. I had 11p in my bank account. Job was messed up so wasn't earning; couldn't pay child support so was stopped seeing my daughter; was living at my mums and couldn't pay her rent; had a woman I was seeing and I was struggling to find ways to take her out; had no car no money for bus anything. I was BROKE!!! COMPLETELY FUCKING BROKE! I've got the snapshot of my balance on that day as the background to my phone! It's my motivation to NEVER be that broke again! 11p? Fucking hell that shit broke my fucking heart and almost broke me as a man!!!!
@@Carpathianpixie i appreciate that thank you. Yeah it was a madness! On top of all that, my daughters mother the evil bitch she is kicked me when I was down. I’m back on top and I don’t wish evil on anybody but I NEVER FORGET!
Having no money, absolutely no money, can't pay rent, buy groceries, can't pay car bills, in debt at the bank... I feel like that will be one of the few things to truly bring a man to his knees and realize he needs to make a change somewhere. Glad you no more in that situation.
James needs to have a separate channel or a playlist of JUST movie/show recommendations and his awesome blurbs about them, cause I need a reference spot!
I got rejected from both or those and dollar general 😂 I finally found a friend that worked in Walmart’s HR and she got me an interview (I got the job then). The interviewer straight told me that without my friend, I would have got rejected again. I had a masters degree and they said they wouldn’t hire me as I’d want too much $. I was doing an unpaid internship and that’s why I needed the part time Walmart gig. So if you’re overqualified they will reject you quickly.
In my very early 20s I was poor and stupid. And I had way too much pride. I was so poor. I ate pancakes for 2 weeks straight. And at this point I lived with my sister. And I pretended I was just trying pancakes out in various ways. Chocolate chips, blueberries. It only really lasted a month and a half. Poverty was just not something Im willing to settle into. I learned how to balance the books really quickly. And I stopped spending every last dime I had lol. My pride would not let me ask my mom or sisters or brothers or father for a single penny. I had no food, just a box of aunt jemima's pancake mix. Till this day I have not been able to eat pancakes. The smell make me extremely sick. It's been 10 years, I'll still never eat a pancake.
This episode 🫶🏾 like seriously… thanks James for making us ALL more accountable on our shit. Fuhad thanks for showing us what real friendship( bro-sis) hood is suppose to look like. And the jokes ALWAYZ just DOPE
Ellie did believe her blood was gonna work because she’s immune to the infection and she hoped it would save him. This episode was so emotional. I definitely cried. 😢
My brother's best mate was getting sober and needed something to fill his time so my brother started a podcast with him to help him out. Many years later the are doing multiple podcasts, my brother built a studio in his basement and his friend stayed sober, got married and is now a substance abuse therapist.

This episode was fire! Amazing to see the level of friendship between you two. And thaks for sharing the tip about the calendar to stay consistent. I've been doing something similar in the past, but what you described seems way better. Thaks for everything guys!!
I love this episode so much guys. The part about accountability was so good and I NEEDED TO HEAR THAT!! James and Fuhad, thank you for being open and real about things!! ❤❤
Their friendship is so wholesome. I NEED this in my life. Sometimes as a woman it's so hard finding good, honest friends. Because a lot of women just hate on others. These 2 are the perfect example of what true friendship is! ❤❤❤
I started my accountability journey last year Feb 12th and i lost 34kgs from 93kgs in one year. Accountability works if you are discipline. Great work James
Haiti is the same as Nigeria for the electricity. Sometimes you can go a whole day without it. Inverters and generators are a must IF you can afford them and the gas for the generator.
8:15 here in South Africa we have something similar called load shedding, it happens so regularly that there's apps to notify us of the next power cut.
I've been listening for a while now - but this episode today earned my Patreon membership. Why... because you know what fuck it. You guys are the best of friends and it's a joy to watch. 35:13
I’ve actually started an accountability project. I work with two girls right now and they have been able to be consistent for 5 weeks . I love love working with people in this way. If you need an accountability partner, I’m here❤️
