Could you imagine the scenes for every bloke aged 35 -75, if the Whirlwind came back and won a world title. That would be GOAT like status. Great interview James - top guy Jimmy.
been a long wait
Can you imagine if Elvis came back to life and danced the hokey jokey, that would blow everyone’s minds
Well, he did win the Seniors World Championship
Maybe Jimmy can get the ferret sat on his head to assist with his shots, might give him half a chance.
One of the best so far, Jimmy, what a genuine bloke. You could tell the way he started quizzing you about drugs and gambling, he was genuinely interested, not up his own arse like so many.
OMG… this is amazing …Jimmy White is a true legend of the snooker world.
Yas!
Best Jimmy interview ever. So candid and interesting for all us longtime fans. The artful dodger.
The only non snooker world champion you can class as a world champion. Absolute legend!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Legend
Jimmy is just a Smasher on every level.
We love him here in Ireland, a true Gentleman his family must be so proud of him.
Just watched fking brilliant 👏
Big ups for the main man Jimmy from another Irish fan!
A very humble, down to earth guy. Keep coming back to this interview because of it
Love it, we love him in Dublin
I felt this mans pain losing all those finals, i watched them all as a kid & was always rooting for Jimmy. .... i think everyone else was in the end
Match fixer.
@@chrisolagrim3597 what you chatting about u child porn victim
I love his honesty, most people would hide the stories of smoking crack and so on but Jimmy is a real person, no bull sh#t .
The first step to getting out of any addiction is to admit you have a problem.
Jimmy has brought so much joy to so many people. He was and is my childhood hero.
Loved Jimmy growing up, and cried everytime he lost the world final
He'll win it next year don't worry 😢
James really has tapped into something here. He is getting guests in (legends) that EVERYONE else is overlooking. Just when you think you know how this podcast is playing out he brings out Jimmy White!!! James English you legend
Get a room
@@KarlHamilton haha I wish he looks too good for me now with his new teeth!🤣
@@ants80 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know! Right?? No one else is doing this...
@@ants80 😊
What a superb interview. Jimmy is so open, warm and very perceptive. So glad he made it through.
A true gentleman. He’s been my snooker hero always. This interview has made me like him even more. ❤
Such a down to earth man! Humble and genuine. Comes to our local family cafe, always a pleasure to have him in. Jimmy you the best 👊💯❤
Absolutely phenomenal guest.
Jimmy is just about the most interesting interviewee in sport imo. Can't wait to watch this.
Amazin interview.. Both of you spoke from the heart and it was great to listen to.. Well done lads 👍👍
Me too, love Jimmy.
James, I've never seen Jimmy White interviewed before unless it's been about a snooker match he's just finished. What a really nice guy he is. James as I keep saying TV must be on the horizon. Keep the interviews coming.👍👍👍🏴
He really is, i had the pleasure to meet him twice and he's always open to have a chat with, picture, signature etc.
One of my favourite humans out there really.
I remember Jimmys semi final battle with Higgins in 1982. Incredible match. Everyone thought Jimmy had won it, but he missed a crucial red - it wobbled in the jaws of the pocket and stayed there. Higgins stepped in and cleared up. Once of the most incredible clearances ever witnessed.
Great match.
Love to say that I seen it live, just before my love for the game went into the stratosphere. Jimmy is my hero.
Jimmy what a player and man ,Respect .
Love Jimmy, but I hate how he doesn’t give Stephen credit. Yet, he gives credit to everyone who he’s never played in a world championship final
@@James-C-Callan on the other hand Hendry has always said Jimmy was his hero. Never copped onto that though
Loved watching Jimmy as a young lad growing up and what an honest bloke he truly is a legend 👏
JIMMY WHITE is a LEGEND ❤
He is my snooker hero since I was a kid. I was a Jimmy fan, my Bro a Steve fan.
He is the reason I have made a few 100 breaks. One of my real hero's.
Best man you could of got on a podcast James well done mate Jimmy is a legend 💯🎯
Amazing is the whirlwind White. Looking forward to this on James pal. 🙏💙
Awesome interview! Jimmy is one of the coolest guys EVER! Other guys won more titles than him, but he won 100 times more hearts!
My favorite moment is (weirdly non-snooker), when he and Alex played against Bobby Hunter & Mike Massey in 1995 in the Mosconi Cup. I could watch this match every evening with a glass of beer.
Anyway... just one thing to say to the producers - please, compress the s*** out of this those microphone signals. When he gets away from the mic, the voice level drops - 30% ...
Just finished this on Spotify. Had to jump on and say this was brilliant. A dont even really like snooker lol but what a podcast and what a guy. Pure honesty. Brilliant keep them coming James.
This podcast James was the best no1, what a legend what a great guy... Absolutely loved this podcast my fav one....💯💖💯
So many interviews with Jimmy don’t delve deep enough. This is possibly the best interview he’s given and a large part of that was your superb interview style and emotional intelligence. Hope you do another with him when he retires.
What a lovely guy Jimmy White is! So glad he’s come through it all x
I'm 51 and in my time, Jimmy was one of the most loved sports personality of my time, along with Jimmy's pal Alex Higgins , people who never watched snooker started watching these two extraordinary players , I have an addict personality and I will be fighting it for the rest of my life and it's great to see people discussing their addictive personality and how they are fighting it because we all have different ways of dealing with it andJames and Jimmy are two peas in a pod and a lifelong friendship has just started right there God bless you both!
Never seen Jimmy open up like this. Amazing interview! Love the fact that he still thinks he’s got winning tournaments in him. Legend !
What a lovely down to earth guy wish him the best thanks James another great podcast .
I STILL LOVE WATCHING JIMMY'S 155 BREAK x
Jimmy's book Second Wind is an absolute must read!
Fuck me, what a brilliant interview! Loved every second. Always loved Jimmy, James brings out the best in interviews because he's struggled with his own demons and people open up and can relate to him. You can tell they are more than happy to speak about the shit times as well as the good ones. Awesome x
👍🏼❤️
What an inspirational interview James. Jimmy is my age & it's great to see we're all the right side of our addictions & still have the zest to win. Jimmy competing & trying to win in the top tournaments is amazing. Props to you brother. Bless up 👊
The peoples champ. Probably the most well likes snooker player of his time.
Id say of all time,close by ronnie obviously
Alex higgins

Absolutely loved Jimmy as a kid proper interesting to hear his story 25 years on! Thanks for bringing the best variety of guests to the show week in week out 👍🏻
What a lovely human being Jimmy is. James - that was a masterclass interview. Well done fella.
The Peoples Champion. I met him once years ago in a nightclub where I worked. A humble & genuine man.
Brilliant James really enjoy your podcasts- grew up on Jimmy White playing snooker, loved him absolute legend. Great interview👍👍
I love the guests you have, often people who don’t have the opportunity to share their story.
Nice one James!

The energy on this podcast was brilliant. Fair play to James and Jimmy, one of my favorites
Loved this interview with Jimmy. So good to listen to non criminals bragging about all the awful things they have done.
Ole jimmy with his syrup. Gota love his honesty THEE people’s champ.
This just popped up on my recommended watch and if I’m being honest, it’s one of the best interviews I’ve seen for a very long time! The interviewer had a great rapport with Jimmy and brought out the best version of him. Can’t wait to look back through older interviews of James English, keep up the great work!
Top guy Jimmy looking forward to this 👍
By far the most relaxed interview youve eveer done.. Bonced of each other in conversation so so well.. True Legend is Jimmy.. so Honest.. Top Job James..
Aww man, what an interview. Jimmy seems like an absolute gem. Great that he still has so much passion for his snooker and believes he can win big again - I really hope he does.
Deffo one of the best podcast I seen.. Been through so much shit and still going strong...inspirational.. As always.. Keep them coming James...
Great interview, totally natural from both Jimmy and James , spoke as if they had been pals for years.
Jimmys hair colour ain’t natural
@@Nicky47662 it's a wig he is wearing
Not only an all time great in the sport but a very genuine, nice fella all-round. The man has certainly lived and its great the fire is still there and he has goals still, always good to see in anybody. Jimbo you establish a great rapport with these legends you have on mate, great banter but genuine chemistry and empathy also. Keep up the good work mate.
I reckon he still is an all time great
@@danedwadd62 Yeah me too mate.
Excellent interview with arguably the most loved Snooker player of them all!
Great interview james,,loved watching Jimmy play in his day,,love from Dublin Ireland ❤❤🙏☘
Brilliant interview. Love Jimmy, so down to earth, so humble and so human. Great to see the roles of interviewer and interviewee switch a number of times during this, such is the connection between them. Reflecting on life, the ups, the downs, the triumphs and those times, like many of us, succumbed to demons. A truly inspirational interview from two top guys. Thank you 👍
Would love to see more of these types of interviews James ,,, Jimmy “ I never ever hurt anyone only myself “ really enjoyed it thank you……….have a great day James 👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻⭐️👌🏻👌🏻
What a fabulous interview! Jimmy is a legend, I started following him and his mate Tony Meo in the late 1970’s, both of them a great talent. Thanks so much for posting and good luck to ya Jimmy!

Always loved watching Jimmy play. My uncle was friends with his dad over south London way and I used to hear so many stories. I can relate to loads of what he says in this interview.
Jimmy = legend
Great podcast James
Wow. What a fantastic interview. Probably the best I’ve ever seen. Love you Jimmy! 😎
Great guest never seen him interviewed like this next rocket Ronnie!
One of the best interviews I have ever seen, James is a brilliant interviewer and so refreshing to see someone who doesn't constantly interrupt the guest, top man !!
Absolutely brilliant! Best one yet, Jimmy,, the Legend !
My favourite player ever in the golden age of snooker. A real rock star sportsman and a man of the people. Hero worshipped by his fans!!!! Still own and use the Jimmy White snooker cue bought for me by my parents when I was a young lad!!!!
Listen to most of your interviews James but this is the best by a mile! What a legend!
Brilliant ☑️
Brilliant stories Jimmy. Top man. Good questions James. Good luck with your fight.
The best interview yet. Just brilliant!
Jimmy White, what an absolute sporting legend. One of my favourites you’ve done James, didn’t want it to end.
Great interview James, Jimmy is a real diamond, proper bloke and this just reminded me that he’s my favourite sports personality in my lifetime, lovely jubbly Jimmy!!
Such a fantastic podcast James. One of my personal hero’s. You have such an uncanny ability to bring out such great stories from your great guests. Keep up the great work!
He’s such a down to earth bloke and worthy of a world championship 👍👏👏👏
This is one of the best interviews I have seen for a long time. Absolutely brilliant 👍
What a interview class James....love Jimmy loved watching him play snooker along with Alex Higgins and the rest of them at that time, Jimmy was a fantastic friend to Alex Higgins he was there for Alex right up till Alex died. I live in N Ireland my dad was brought up not far from Alex he was also the same age as Alex, Alex could be a nice, funny, bloke but he could also be very ignorant and fight with his own shadow at times and he died a very sad death but even through all his flaws he was well liked and thanks to Jimmy for being there for him....well done James on another fantastic interview.....
Another amazin guest, you could listen to Jimmys stories all day
Class james
I thought that was one of the most honest interviews I have ever watched. Really enjoyed it James well done.
What a belting bloke, so genuine yet again jamesy keep up the star work. BRAVO
Loved this interview!…Jimmy is genuine and honest…he has had his demons! And battled them….(like a lot of us)…so glad he’s back playing snooker and commentating! have a gut feeling of who a good guy is…and Jimmy is one of them 👍
Well Done James English - another enjoyable success :-). Really impressive how he began interviewing you. I reckon he will come to the boxing match too. Great Guy.
Brilliant interview one of the best yet, Jimmy is such a sound bloke
Probably the best podcast I've seen James English do...love Jimmy White...x
cant wait to go back to work Monday so i can listen to this - not listening to it on my day off Sunday. Least i want to be getting paid while enjoying your great content !! top guest to land James - youre killing it !
👍🏼
JAMES That was a great interview, JIMMY WHITE IS MY BOYHOOD IDOL, I really enjoyed it , good luck with your boxing match 🥊🥊
My god what an interview! Jimmy was one of the players I most tried to emulate when I was first playing the game. Seen some good interviews with him over the years but this one just felt like two mates in the pub which really is credit to you James. I'm 8 years clean of gambling and drink currently and like you say I don't feel much different but I cope with situations a hell of a lot better now. Well done on your journey and keep fighting brother
Sorry I missed the live chat...jimmy white for snooker was the equivalent to Mike tyson in boxing.. made the masses start enjoying playing or watching snooker on a large scale.
Jimmy reminds me of Gazza.. seeing them come through is special .. I do feel that Jimmy is carrying guilt & regret .. let it go Jimmy ! Absolute legend ❤️
