Gone through the comments this morning and I just want to thank everyone for the support 🙏 it's so up lifting to read these lovely comments. Thank you 😁🙏
Sorry about your early life truma,but there is no excuse to then go on to create victims because you have been hurt.
❤️ brother
@@josephmcdonnell8987 your passing judgement on something you don't understand.
It's a good thing you do being open .it helps others
Bro respect like been to mill and bk paul god bless
Top respect to this lad for opening up about his demons and mental health and its straight from the heart. I've suffered for years with poor mental health and addiction and the one thing I have learned is that the only person who is going to help you is you, its hard to do but with help you can beat it.
What a gripping story! But most of all what a humble, authentic, honest man. This story is so inspiring, I wish nothing but health and happiness for you and your family Paul - thank you for sharing 🙏 x
This story is one off the best james english interviews ive watched,well done paul venis God bless you lad and your family
Only 15 minutes in and can say this is an awesome interview. He seems like he's done a lot of soul searching and self reflection to be a better person.
Amazing to see how some people can turn their life around. Paul V seems like a down to earth lad and it's nice to see someone trying to have a positive influence on others dealing with addiction. Best of luck to you and your family Paul. 💗
@@burdturgler5600 i think Paul was underagetoo though if u do the math hes 36 with 20 year old daughter as you know it takes 9 months so i imagine he were bout same age himself.Its not ideal kids having kids but it happens
What a story , what a guy , I don't know Paul but I do know he is one of the most inspirational guys I've ever listened to . It's astounding who he has become and what he has achieved.
One of the best one of yours yet James...great to hear your story Paul...salt of the earth.
👍🏼
Quality listen. My brother just relapsed after 11 years clean. I’ll be forwarding this on to him.
Cheers Paul and James. 👊🏻
thanks for sharing, im nearly 10 years sober and it's been a hard week just goes to show it can happen on any day I hope your brother is well and gets straight back to it one step at a time looking for this podcast now 👍
@@themunchieman6767 keep the faith brother.
James, not only are your podcasts interesting to your viewers but it's so obvious that you are helping the people you interview, too. I know you're wrestling with your own demons but you should be proud of what you're enabling your guests to achieve through discourse. Keep up the good work. It's clearly helping many people.
Another great interview james,, again great to hear your view on life etc.. Brillant mate 👍🏻 well done paul has well for turning everything around and doing what you are doing today should be proud of yourself mate! Keep going strong james by far the best podcast out there keep the good and hard work up james👍🏻👍🏻
The greatest respect to James and Paul… 1 of the best podcast I’ve seen in a long time… keep up the good work lads..
👍🏼
What a legend to share that pain bro.
Salute to you family, blessed.
This is a beautiful interview.
So relatable on many levels.
Paul Venis inspiring to see the change you have made in your life and yourself.
Thank you.
25.46.."while I'm living this life Shaun"...🤣🤣..the real Jazzee Jeff..😉
Britain’s toughest doorman 🤣🤣
Paul is an absolute legend!! Such a nice kind hearted guy!!
What a great interview. James you’re the best in the game at interviewing! This was so raw and honest, pure respect to Paul and I only wish him the best in the future ❤️❤️ 🙏
Great interview, I relate to everything Paul said. I was a big lad when I was young but very insecure since my parents divorce when I was 4. i got bullied by 4 or 5 skinny kids. In 76 I passed my eleven plus and had the long hot summer to contemplate moving to the big school. I got fed up of worrying and simply decided if anybody hurt me they would get my very dark side. Within a couple of years the other kids avoided me and I enjoyed stealing cigarettes off my previous bullies. Moved to London as soon as possible after school and became a South London bouncer. Proud to say I never beat anybody up and I was never beaten up either
To have gone through all that and emerge with a moral integrity and decency is no small achievement. Great interview.
Loved this james. He seems a very down to earth person who's honest about his past. Fair play to him.
👍🏼
💯 the best Interview I've ever seen james do and Paul is so obviously as genuine as they come ..so a big thumbs up to paul
Thanks pal
Great to watch he’s very humble and genuine. Enjoyed this one he’s one of a few that changes his path and sorts his life.. not everyone can spin things around like this 👍🏻
Really good to see Paul doing well and on the mend.. top man great to listen too
All the best Paul.. keep up the good work 🙏
25:42 - James's face when Paul accidentally calls him "Shaun" 🤣
🙊
Wes smith
He didn’t react .. 😶
Fantastic interview James blessings to you and blessings and respect for Paul wish him and his family all the best in the world
I knew nothing about Venis before watching this,I literally just seen his name floating about and a couple of RUclips shorts of him having banter with Danny Christie,but this was honestly one of the best podcasts you've done. What a bloke Paul is,I wish him all the success and happiness in the world
Great interview James , thanks Paul for your honesty, you’ll help lots of people through your recovery & they’ll go onto helping others etc etc, all the best with you both , ✌️. Recommend anyone to watch this. ODAAT
Always the lads that can really scrap that are most humble in interviews. You can see that he has nothing to prove to anyone.
Unlike Simpson
💯💯💯
Yes..easier in a way for those fellas
Becuase there/hes real dont hide behind a knife
Humble? He had to tell every story, i went around eh the jail whos the hardest where is, you are mate, no where is, no its you, hahahaha fk off, what a total fanny he really is, trust me on that, all that god bollocks, guys still a bully and a prick
What another toughest doorman, what happened to last weeks😂😂
Fair play to this guy
Only stumbled across him on a documentary about lee duffy
Takes alot of guts to tell a story like that and is still standing
Good luck and all the best
James, I've been a fan for years, but this has been the best interview I've seen! This man is an awesome person who has truly made a huge change and has become the man he always knew was inside him!
Best of luck to the both of you, and I think I will start going to meetings again myself.
Cheers!
Thanks Gary
What a podcast im early recovery and ive never met paul bud would love the opportunity to meet him a hard man but so humbling to hear another addicts story from where a man has come from to where you are today i have the untmost respect for you not glorifying your wrongs but passing on the message that there is a way out of that dark place is amazing
Could listen to Paul chatting all day.
It's also good for me to keep watching people who have got on top of things, and stopped making excuses like I still do.
Great show James.
Especially when he calls James, Shaun @ 25.46 😅 … Attwood will be creaming his pants 😂
@@bennyspence9824 i heard him say that too 😂😂😂
Another great interview, what a grounded bloke, great to see he’s turned his life around, good effort Paul, well done and keep it going

This has to be the best interview ever not blowing smoke up paul arse but he real deal am going through struggles now and lived a similar life but he right in what he says takes a real man to sit and express this message and help others takes a bigger real man to understand how much his missus and kids mean to him a them to him even tho he admits every fault he made he makes up for it now because his family has him back well done paul and James great work best podcast ever

Great honest interview well done Paul. Life's a rollercoaster. Well done on staying clean. Family first. Happy wife easy life
Smashed it again James what a genuine man and great podcast
Bullying is one of the worst things you will ever go through it can destroy your whole life forever so it's never ever the same again. You never ever really get over it.
Coming from Middlesbrough (Newport area) I can assure anyone that South Bank area, known as Slaggy Island, was one of the roughest areas you can imagine. Respect to you Big Lad for turning your life around. You are a Man to look up to. All the best from a fellow Smoggy now living in Bavaria.
Fair play Paul enjoyed this podcast. honest humble and one of our own UTB!!
Interesting guy. A lot to be proud of and an inspiration for young people with addiction issues and for those who are born into disadvantage.
Another great video James. Inspirational messages from Paul. Well done lads 👍👍

@@ciaranhughes6016 mate i was in a bar one night, a group of fellas came in, told the bouncers to stand there and not move whilst they give a guy 200 stitches. bouncers stood and watched.
I knew Paul when he was bad with his addiction and seeing him now is unbelievable, great lad , inspiration to many youngsters and other ages in the Boro 👍🏼 used to love seeing Paul around grangetown when I lived up there years ago …. Top fella venna mate big love bro glad you found peace 🙏🏽💙

Another great interview James, respect for Paul Venis for changing his life around and respect for you for knowing when to ask a question, when to listen and when to empathise.

Another excellent one James,,these podcasts of yours have taken place of my audio books on drives.
I watched loads of podcast and this one here is up there fairplay this guy is real I really felt it
Paul is breath of fresh air 🤙 im only 22 and going through the same addiction this podcast was a wake up thanks to the two of yous 🇮🇪
Same here mate got a personal trainer at the gym bodybuilding and still smoking crack at 32 years old.all the best friend love from nottingham
Hi pall i went through addiction and got threw it alls you need is that self courage to say no again .i went to CA for 1 month and seen and let out everything i needed to say .take each day at a time mate and say no each day .now when i go out and see people at it i now laugh at them and wake up the next day feeling on top of the world do it for you no 1 else and you will over come it pall .i served in the army for 9 years came out had a house kids n GF .now since i have over come im married own my own house n successfull in what i do keep strong my brother n look forward n keep your head fresh n straight and keep your circles small with good people around you this helps in a massive way
@@scotthughes9939 thanks for that mate I do much talking about it and not enough action clean sober life is the goal 👍
One ☝🏼 of my biggest addictions that I am ashamed of is Tim tams …. Especially with a glass of milk 🥛…. Drugs and schizophrenia or prison and being sectioned is not a problem… it’s those chocolate 🍫 Tim tams…
Always makes me laugh when someone is declared the hardest.......what it means is the hardest of the people that aren't actually functioning members of society 😅 I'm sure there are some hard dads out there working 9 to 5 to support their kids
He had to make a response video 'i only worked a few shifts on the doors' as to not upset the real hard fuckers out there that dont run about with replica guns on the streets. And i think he is wise enough to know he's ok fighting semi pro sort of white collar, but some animals around that well rounded fighters wouldn't mind taking that title off him, so he had to straighten that out....:)
Or pro fighters that would toy with him
@@jamiejosh96 Dont let the little youtube cult see that mate, theres a few thousand die hard venis is the terminator plums around, they think hes some sort of unstoppable force, same sort of people that idolise a crackpot, liability roidhead that went around punching doorman, same mentality of people. Real deal hardmen, dangerous people do not go in to prison and go whos the hardest where is he, or go around cracking doormen......yeh hes got a record of 20 summit knockouts, i've knocked over 100 people out at work, out of work, in a cage, but they weren't good fighters, some were ok, but they weren't anything worth mentioning, i only knocked them out instead of submitting them because the bosses told me that submissions were dull, i would shoot in double leg venis, take him down, and reign fire on him, hed gass out wriggling about and id just keylock him or armbar him, choke him, smash him, he said decca isn't in my league, people have inflated this guys ego so much since that fight, nobody knew who he was outside teeside, he thinks hes up there, hes what 5'10, stiff as an egyptian mummy, as slow as week in a police cell, he doesn't move, one solid straight right to that melon, anyone thats fast on their toes with a bit of power, goodnight irene to venis, and i think decca would have him, i watched both of them, and decca at his best is quicker, just better than venis.
Lenny McLean would snap him like toothpick! Take away those roids n let's see how hard you think are!
@@TheReesi73 Lenny was roided out his nut. Yeh he was a big fker, not much skill, see all these guys, any good fighter, trained fighter would lay out ten lenny mcleans, one after another, in the ring, on the cobbles, you think guys that are mma guys cant bite noses off and gouge eyes? They do, and the difference between them and lenny is theyre trained at getting you in a position to do that, even your average 95kg mma guy, thats a pretty good wrestler would fuck lenny mclean up anywhere, if he was an animal and had a nasty streak to fight dirty, these guys are only known for bully tacticts and being crackpots, theyd get punched all over by decent fighters, believe it.
What a cracking lad , I can only imagine the positive influence you're having on the people who cross your path. Physically saw you grow during the interview. Stay strong , stay positive, stay humble x
physically grow 😂😂
Superb interview James! 👏 Massive respect to Paul for turning his life around for the better 👏👊🙌
