Wish u had some of these types of vids without swearing. My niece and nephew would love u. But they’re 4 and ５so I don’t want them 2 pick up those types of words
About the soap in the shower. There was this dude who did drop it once. He looked nervous as hell. The rest of us laughed, because we could see he believed that myth
My brother got testicular cancer last year, 25 years old. They removed it and there's no sign of cancer spread anymore, thank you for spreading awareness Larry, greetings from iceland love your content :)
I was in jail for only 12 hours, and I knew it wasn’t a place for me. Hearing all of these stories are inspiring because you turned your life around. If you can do it, I can do it. Thank you Larry.
4 days in county, here. 72 hrs in solitary because the nurse wasnt in to evaluate me before being sent to gen. Worst experience of my life. Didnt eat for 2 days, lights on 24 hrs a day, no book, pen and paper... nothing. No contact at all, not even an awareness of time. That was 2014, never again. Best part was I got sent cause my ex-wife lied about abuse.
Maybe 10 days, but I was eventually cleared. I was treated fairly well, but I was in the Good Behavior unit. We wore blue. Mostly DUI and child support guys. I don't know how anyone handles it for longer. I have respect for that, especially for non violent offenses
I used to be a corrections officer, until I couldn't take the corruption anymore and the mistreatment of inmates being ignored and swept under the rug. Gotta say this is all 100% spot on. I worked in seg and we had to do daily cell shakedowns, obviously and I found very few shanks in my time. That told me that they were always on the inmate's person.
Larry, you're a born storyteller and you have the gift and inclination to share your experiences with others. Hopefully, the wisdom you drop will help people stay out of prison altogether or at least help them stay safe if they do go in. Love the channel stay safe!
You honestly remind me of my best friend's dad, he went to prison for some years and now he is just a normal every day person and I really respect him and you.
Larry, I want to thank you for making these videos and stopping me from doing something illegal that would put me in jail if it's traced back to me and my associate. Making money fast is tempting, but watching your life go by stuck in a cage and putting your family through hell is not worth it. Thank you for telling everyone how bad prison life can be and it's best to stay on the right side of the law.
RESPECT is huge in prison. I was 23 when i got off the bus and the thing that stood out the most that week, was the respect amongst inmates. What I've learn, was respect is yours to lose and if u address a situation as soon as it happens most of the time it goes no further.
I'm a former CO, but I was working a medium security state prison at our prison's intake, which is a barracks unit, and the respect thing is absolutely true, even from COs to inmates. You respect them, within reason of course, then you earn report from everyone who sees you giving respect.
Except that none of the custodial powers (in or out of prison) are forcing people to fight one another; tribal feuding has been a stain on our species since before there were prisons or governments, and continue regardless of who's in charge of them. And by the way, while I have no doubt the CO's don't want them to try it, the idea that the inmates could "join together and take over the prison" has no long term viability whatsoever; every time prisoners attempt that sort coup they either get beaten senseless by the guards, or get gassed and/or shot by state reinforcements, and the survivors are locked down by force. Like it or not, the state holds the power, and it is the holders of the reigns of power who define the parameters of the state. No civilian population has any chance of overwhelming their nation's military, and I can't think of a single actual-revolution in history that hasn't been utterly disastrous.
Very interesting how you said guards wanted prisoners to fight each other and keep them divided because if everyone united together, taking over the prison would be easy Sounds like what politicians and corporations are doing to humanity.
The tough pill to swallow for many is they do this by mixing up the races. Tgat is what he said. A unified racial group will have less conflict. Now maybe you understand why the border is wide open.
Indeed. Politicians and people in power would be terrified if all people, black, white, hispanic, asian, left wing, center, right wing, gay, straight, etc, all came together. It would cripple their power over us. Half their job is to make sure we're divided, the only thing they really care about is THEM making money, and keeping their power. No matter how much bs they tell you, they care about their power first, and will tell you any bs to keep it. Corporations and politicians don't care about me or you at all. They can and will sell you out.

Love this channel. Never been to prison and I hope I never do, but it's always interesting to learn from an expert on anything, and Mr. Lawton is an expert. My biggest takeaway overall is a reminder of how important it is to treat the people around you with respect, anywhere you are in life. Will continue to watch and learn.
I always thought the myth that you should pick a fight with the biggest guy on the first day was dumb as hell and a great way to get your ass killed or put in a coma. Everyone knows that the proper way to assert dominance is to T-Pose.
You know what's funny is cyanide and happiness did a short where a guy beat the biggest dude in prison the other inmates beat that guy up and basically said what larry said "who the fuck you think you are?"
My wife's ex boyfriend passed away from testicular cancer sadly at the age of 27. So did another one of my friends Chris. Who died at 23.... rest in peace young men.
They never guessed something is wrong? Normale you just get that ball clipped and maybe extra chemotherapy. Often not a "death sentence", at least in my homecountry.
Thank you for sharing this. As a former CO, I get these questions all the time. I can also attest to the fact that prison is not a good place for ANYONE, including the COs. We used to call it doing time on the installment plan. Good luck to you. Glad you are out and away from that shit!
As a CO for three years, I can backup everything you said. 100% accurate on all accounts. I’ve personally never segregated offenders by race. That was left to the classification staff, but trust and believe me when I say this. Anybody that says custody staff control the prison is a fool. There were about 50 of us and 2000 offenders. Who really controls the prison. Lol.
Great 1 hour show about the 1993 Ohio prison riot on Netflix, can't remember the name right now, remember that the first thing that happened was 7 snitches got pulled out of their cells and beat to death by inmates with baseball bats
One snitch was killed by having a metal pipe driven through how head. At least two were dismembered from what I've read. When the cops came in, they were wondering why the prisoners and taken sides of beef from the kitchen and hung them up in a cell blood. It wasn't beef, it was human torsos...
Larry. Great video. I did 7 years in Leavenworth. All of them were pretty uneventful. I just did my time and didn't get involved in the games. Best advice, you give respect and you get respect.
Larry, I always come to listen to your videos when I'm feeling depressed, beat up by life, or hopeless. You are really an inspiration to people that no matter how jacked up your life gets you can turn it around. thank you for inspiring me to push forward every day, and some days I have o remind myself that no matter how jacked up my life is there are people who have got it worse. Thanks, Larry, Keep it up

Every time I see your channel pop up I get a little smile seeing how well your channel is doing. I remember like 2 or 3 years ago(probably longer) watching you channel with like 60-70k subs and thinking that it wouldn't be long until you were into the 7 digits. Keep it up man you've earned it.
Thank you for the cancer psa Larry, my brother had it when he was young and nearly died. It's a very preventable cancer and the message is important to get out there.
My 38-year-old son is in prison for Meth and gun possession, he got 10 years. As a mother, I feel like outside of serious illness or death of a child this is the worst thing that could happen. I feel like all the joy has been sucked away and replaced with anxiety, guilt, and grief. It just sucks so so bad!
If he was caught up with those things, he could have died. So while I'm sure it's of little comfort, you have to remember that 10 years in prison can just be a chapter in what could be a long and fruitful life. Hopefully he gets through the experience and is able to learn from it. All the best with your situation.
I just discovered your channel 2 days ago and I have been binge watching. I'm amazed at your stories and experiences. I think it is incredible that you have taken such a negative part of your life and are using it for good and to help people. You seem like such a genuine good dude and I am so happy that you learned from your past and straightened your life out. I've heard stories my whole life because my father was unfortunately in prison in the 80s and served 5 years in the old Mansfield Prison. He is a great man, he had got busted for marijuana. I have heard horror stories from him and like you have said in past videos about how you can still hear screams, my dad says the same thing. He has said he can still hear the screams and cries of men getting shanked, raped or beaten. Anyway, I have nothing but love and respect for you Larry for what you're doing on this channel. God bless you Larry, stay safe and healthy. ✌
I will always go through life now thinking about the consequences of my actions thanks to Larry and what I’ve learnt about prison through his videos because it sounds like one of the worst places imaginable. Thanks Larry.
@@rubend9391 Sounds about right. In my country, the previous government was corrupt, so a lot of people in prisons got subjected to literal torture, most notable cases being guards raping young prisoners with broom sticks. That's when I realized I'd rather just stay irrelevant and not go to prison.
Thanks so much Larry for bringing up the testicular cancer. I had on removed, it didn't spread and at 69 still get a decent chubby. Guys listen to Larry regarding this subject. Believe me , a stiff rid is the last thing on your mind when you're told you have cancer. Fantastic job Larry, as always.
Iran has evin prison where they put people in a white room, wearing white clothes, eating white rice, in a white plate. And u don’t see colors for several years and they go insane
Man I remember andrew. Regardless, it's great that you are doing what you are doing. Life after prison can be pretty bad, and i think it's great that you are doing public outreach in a form that can actually get thru to people. It's quite brilliant really and you should feel a lot of pride in what you do. Thank you.
Watching your videos for a few days now, and here's what I learned thus far. 1.) A lot more people get away with things like drugs, beatings, and rapes in prison than I imagined. I always imagined prison as a really controlled environment with less of that going on than it appears does. I mostly thought this because of the constant surveilance you'd be under in that environment. 2.) Guards seem to have an inconsistent level of discipline, and self-control. Which seems to prove the Stanford Prison Experiment correct.
You did a really good sponsorship for manscape... I’ve seen other people on RUclips do a portion of their video who sponsored manscape and it in no way even compares to yours. Manscape needs to definitely give you a lot of money 💰! Love your videos , I am sure that they have helped many people. You seem like a honestly good person. Wishing you continued success for the rest of your life.
Yeah he doesn't know about other prisons. U bend over in front of the booty bandit. Yeah your getting it😅😂. He says, booty is better then food. Look up the booty bandit on lock up raw. The guards feared this man of being raped😅😂
Everytime i listen to you talk about what happened at a certain year i think, what did i do at that time and it blows my mind every time. Love your stories Larry
Christmas 2019 I had one of my testicles removed due to cancer. Thanks for bringing some attention to it, I feel like you did it with a good balance of humor and seriousness :D It's not like a bad cancer, it's just scary. And then when you gotta talk about it, and everyone gets awkward because you use the word "testicle". xD
Thanks for spreading awareness on testicular cancer Lar, I’m 24 n never thought of it that way I’m gonna start checking myself monthly , much love brother
@@LarryLawtonJewelThiefI'd talk shop with you. Aryan Ciricle, been at USP Florence, Lewisburg and them McCreary after I pissed off Grand Prairie for refusing to do security work at Lewisburg. Spent time at the fucking SMU there. Been out since 2010. Usually don't watch your video because it sets off my PTSD (it's real, no one cares about it though). Fuck, where we at Lewisburg USP at the same time? ... 2009ish? I used to get leftover oil paint from Leonard Pelieter.
How bout just end your shower and leave it on the floor? I think I'd prefer to miss cleaning a few of my body parts than experience a surprise backdoor visit!
I had a friend in prison drop his soap in the shower, he said "dammit" and bent down and picked it up. As soon as he stood up, he intentionally dropped it and said "Oh, not again....". We were all laughing so hard
Hey Larry, I just wanted to thank you for your awesome content. I had covid back in january till february and while quarantined for nearly a month I would watch your videos religiously. Which truly helped me during those rough times and truly thankful for you. Love the humor and cool videos! I try my hardest to be good and not go to prison... wasn't able to see my gal for a month and it felt like hell. I don't wanna know what it's like to go to prison.. Love ya lots Larry! Ray from Miami.
Good video, dude. Thankfully, I don't lead any kind of life that puts me at odds with the law or puts me at risk of going to prison. It's good to see a former inmate who appears to have put their life together and gotten on a better path. Congrats on that.
Preface to a few related questions: for years (even before this pandemic), I had told my students the worst place to be in a pandemic is points of travel (airports, airlines, ships, etc) and institutions (schools, day care centers, long term care and of course prisons). Aside from this pandemic, does the system vaccinate prisoners on processing into the system? Do they provide annual flu vaccines and how does the prison system deal with infectious outbreaks.
Larry should do a compilation of all his sponsorship videos, I would watch all of them again without skipping. Those stuff are better than 85% of other RUclips videos.
Spent 6-1/2 years as a guard and I can say that last part is accurate, when COVID hit the detainees started rioting and as a last resort they had a round the clock Cert team ready with riot shields and gear, the pepper spray and the pepper (spray) grenade launcher in the hallway ready to run into any dorm at any time it was crazy, and when the worst dorms went, I got orders to lock myself in the bathroom as a last resort since I was alone and no backup could be sent
Hey Larry I appreciate you touching on that on that cancer I'm fighting stage 4 melanoma cancer been given like six to nine months to live but I'm fighting it so keep up the good work man loving your shows
I don't know what made me click on this, but you reeled me right in, man. I think I could listen to you talking about almost anything on earth--I learned about tessiscula cancer, man-grooming, prison psychology, human nature, and somehow felt really 'edified' by this. My friends are not going to understand when I share this on FB, but given where I'm from (New Orleans), I suspect this could be useful information to more people than I expect. You are awesome. :)
One of the best people I ever met in my life was the "old man with advice". He could get on your nerves complaining and nagging about being locked up lol. But he was smart as hell and on top of that, he was hilarious! I could LISTEN to that dude talk all day and not say a word.
Omg, Larry 🤣 BEST AD EVER. Thank you for supporting and advocating for men's health! Its a topic that needs to be talked about, especially with how bad things are in our prison systems. The assaults need to stop, the system needs more levels to truly protect and rehabilitate when possible.
I'm so happy the hit the big guy thing wasn't true. I'm 6'4" and at the time was 280 lbs .That was back when I had to spend a few times to Cook County jail (had a drinking and drug problem for a few decades, have been clean and sober for over 15 years now though). I was almost always the biggest guy in the cell block and every time I had to go in, everyone would call me big show after the wrestler. So glad nobody came up and just hit me because I was big...that would have ruined my experience at the hotel California haha. New sub here as I've been enjoying your content, Thanks!

A legend they’ll never forget!
Larry, I always come to listen to your videos when I'm feeling depressed, beat up by life, or hopeless. You are really an inspiration to people that no matter how jacked up your life gets you can turn it around. thank you for inspiring me to push forward every day, and some days I have o remind myself that no matter how jacked up my life is there are people who have got it worse.
Thanks, Larry, Keep it up
When I lived in Phoenix from 92-96 and I truly felt safer because everybody had a gun. Nothing but love and respect from Brookfield Connecticut brother, keep up the amazing work!!!
I’m from the UK and only recently discovered Larry Lawton, really enjoy listening to his story’s,
Always remember, best way to survive prison is don’t do something that’ll get you there in the first place
I always say that
Bullshit this system is SET UP to lock People Up look up Prison Industrial Complex that ought to Teach ya something...(CCA)CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF AMERICA Get to know it and know it WELL!!!!.
@@GABRIELADAWSON You sound like a Gabriela
@@GABRIELADAWSON I’m 50 years old. I’ve yet to go to prison. I wonder how they missed me.
@@anthonysvenforsic4760 Well I wouldn’t be too hasty if I were you cause one day your time might come and you know the Elites don’t give a Flying Fuck about who gets Affected or Not...You’ve been Lucky so far but I’m just saying..
Every time I see your channel pop up I get a little smile seeing how well your channel is doing. I remember like 2 or 3 years ago(probably longer) watching you channel with like 60-70k subs and thinking that it wouldn't be long until you were into the 7 digits. Keep it up man you've earned it.
I haven't seen all your videos but "How many different uses for toilet paper" was something that I found pretty cool while I was down. Lol
So true.
Thank you for the cancer psa Larry, my brother had it when he was young and nearly died. It's a very preventable cancer and the message is important to get out there.
You know it's a good time when you see him in your notifications
thanks!
My 38-year-old son is in prison for Meth and gun possession, he got 10 years. As a mother, I feel like outside of serious illness or death of a child this is the worst thing that could happen. I feel like all the joy has been sucked away and replaced with anxiety, guilt, and grief. It just sucks so so bad!
I can’t imagine the feeling. I bet he’s thinking about you too!
If he was caught up with those things, he could have died. So while I'm sure it's of little comfort, you have to remember that 10 years in prison can just be a chapter in what could be a long and fruitful life. Hopefully he gets through the experience and is able to learn from it. All the best with your situation.

Larry: all old timers have crazy. Also Larry: i was an old timer
Well, at least he's honest.
I just discovered your channel 2 days ago and I have been binge watching. I'm amazed at your stories and experiences. I think it is incredible that you have taken such a negative part of your life and are using it for good and to help people. You seem like such a genuine good dude and I am so happy that you learned from your past and straightened your life out. I've heard stories my whole life because my father was unfortunately in prison in the 80s and served 5 years in the old Mansfield Prison. He is a great man, he had got busted for marijuana. I have heard horror stories from him and like you have said in past videos about how you can still hear screams, my dad says the same thing. He has said he can still hear the screams and cries of men getting shanked, raped or beaten. Anyway, I have nothing but love and respect for you Larry for what you're doing on this channel. God bless you Larry, stay safe and healthy. ✌
I will always go through life now thinking about the consequences of my actions thanks to Larry and what I’ve learnt about prison through his videos because it sounds like one of the worst places imaginable. Thanks Larry.
Honestly jails were worse. 500x more boring and commissary is shit. Only difference is the inmates aren't as psychotic. all the time that is
My first day i saw a guy get stabbed by a corkscrew like object, saw his guts spill out. The attackers friend shouted
" thats the wrong guy " 🥴
😯
I know it's wrong but I can't stop laughing 🤣
When you accidentally shank the wrong target.
@@TheAkrillion Yo...it was a corkscrew bu longer, thats when I realized, I could die here.
@@rubend9391 Sounds about right. In my country, the previous government was corrupt, so a lot of people in prisons got subjected to literal torture, most notable cases being guards raping young prisoners with broom sticks. That's when I realized I'd rather just stay irrelevant and not go to prison.
I was having such a bad day but when larry post i smile 😊
I'm smiling if you are smiling
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief thanks so much larry 🤗 it means alot
I do appreciate honest and humble advice from someone that's been there done that.
ill never forget when i found your channel last year
Thanks so much Larry for bringing up the testicular cancer. I had on removed, it didn't spread and at 69 still get a decent chubby. Guys listen to Larry regarding this subject. Believe me , a stiff rid is the last thing on your mind when you're told you have cancer. Fantastic job Larry, as always.
Here from Iran. Learned a lot and enjoyed a lot from this channel. Here to let Larry know his reach
I heard y’all have some insane prisons , I know they don’t play because they hang gay people in public !!
Iran has evin prison where they put people in a white room, wearing white clothes, eating white rice, in a white plate. And u don’t see colors for several years and they go insane
Man I remember andrew. Regardless, it's great that you are doing what you are doing. Life after prison can be pretty bad, and i think it's great that you are doing public outreach in a form that can actually get thru to people. It's quite brilliant really and you should feel a lot of pride in what you do. Thank you.
Watching your videos for a few days now, and here's what I learned thus far.
1.) A lot more people get away with things like drugs, beatings, and rapes in prison than I imagined. I always imagined prison as a really controlled environment with less of that going on than it appears does. I mostly thought this because of the constant surveilance you'd be under in that environment.
2.) Guards seem to have an inconsistent level of discipline, and self-control. Which seems to prove the Stanford Prison Experiment correct.
You did a really good sponsorship for manscape... I’ve seen other people on RUclips do a portion of their video who sponsored manscape and it in no way even compares to yours. Manscape needs to definitely give you a lot of money 💰!
Love your videos , I am sure that they have helped many people. You seem like a honestly good person. Wishing you continued success for the rest of your life.
I always thought the dropping the soap was more of a metaphorical story to be careful thing not that you'd literally be violated if you dropped it.
Yeah he doesn't know about other prisons. U bend over in front of the booty bandit. Yeah your getting it😅😂. He says, booty is better then food. Look up the booty bandit on lock up raw. The guards feared this man of being raped😅😂
Everytime i listen to you talk about what happened at a certain year i think, what did i do at that time and it blows my mind every time. Love your stories Larry
Christmas 2019 I had one of my testicles removed due to cancer. Thanks for bringing some attention to it, I feel like you did it with a good balance of humor and seriousness :D
It's not like a bad cancer, it's just scary. And then when you gotta talk about it, and everyone gets awkward because you use the word "testicle". xD
1 ball is more than enough
i saw this guys channel on youtube for a long time. glad i finally clicked. he’s great.
You're really inspiring with your story! Thanks a lot for sharing, it will sure help a lot of people
thanks. I hope it helps people avoid trouble and make good decisions.
Thanks!
A day with a Larry Lawton video is automatically great. Love your videos. Keep up the great work and stay safe out there
Thanks.
I like doing these bideos
Any idea when you would do another Ask me Anything? I have a question or two for you but not sure where to submit it?
Thank you so much Larry…every one of these videos is gold!
Only Larry can make a sponsored ad entertaining
Thanks for spreading awareness on testicular cancer Lar, I’m 24 n never thought of it that way I’m gonna start checking myself monthly , much love brother
Can you make a video about the gangs in prisons like the aryan brotherhood and the blood or crip. Love your videos btw
Thanks, I will look into that
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief I would also be interested in this.
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief Can you do a video on how the pedophiles are treated in Prison
@@robertrodriguez787 Read about Coalinga SH in Cali, it's essentially a max sec "pedophile prison"
@@LarryLawtonJewelThiefI'd talk shop with you. Aryan Ciricle, been at USP Florence, Lewisburg and them McCreary after I pissed off Grand Prairie for refusing to do security work at Lewisburg. Spent time at the fucking SMU there. Been out since 2010. Usually don't watch your video because it sets off my PTSD (it's real, no one cares about it though). Fuck, where we at Lewisburg USP at the same time? ... 2009ish? I used to get leftover oil paint from Leonard Pelieter.
Your videos are all the perfect length for my commutes to and from work, along with being great content. Keep it up man!
Oh my god those shanks look messed up. That looks terrifying
16:12 Larry's Windows notification sound trolled me so hard! :D I was checking my computer like: "Sigh, another Windows update? What now?"
I would never just dropped the soap and stick my ass out 😂😂😂👍🏻
Good idea
Nope, definitely bend at the knees.
Learn to pick stuff up with your feet😂😂
Instagram thots be like
How bout just end your shower and leave it on the floor? I think I'd prefer to miss cleaning a few of my body parts than experience a surprise backdoor visit!
I had a friend in prison drop his soap in the shower, he said "dammit" and bent down and picked it up. As soon as he stood up, he intentionally dropped it and said "Oh, not again....". We were all laughing so hard
Growing up I was book smart, but I've learned so much listening to ex-cons, and old soldiers about real life. Keep up the great work.
I'd say ex-cons got the most to teach.
Hi Larry, I like listening to your stories! I don't think I'll ever find myself in prison, but I have learned so much from you. Thank you!
Same, information like this is nice to file away, just-in-case.
Love ur channel Larry. So interesting. Listening to you reminds me to make my best choices daily. Stay safe, from Australia 🇦🇺 🙋🏻♀️👍
Hey Larry, I just wanted to thank you for your awesome content. I had covid back in january till february and while quarantined for nearly a month I would watch your videos religiously. Which truly helped me during those rough times and truly thankful for you. Love the humor and cool videos! I try my hardest to be good and not go to prison... wasn't able to see my gal for a month and it felt like hell. I don't wanna know what it's like to go to prison.. Love ya lots Larry! Ray from Miami.
Good video, dude. Thankfully, I don't lead any kind of life that puts me at odds with the law or puts me at risk of going to prison. It's good to see a former inmate who appears to have put their life together and gotten on a better path. Congrats on that.
Preface to a few related questions: for years (even before this pandemic), I had told my students the worst place to be in a pandemic is points of travel (airports, airlines, ships, etc) and institutions (schools, day care centers, long term care and of course prisons). Aside from this pandemic, does the system vaccinate prisoners on processing into the system? Do they provide annual flu vaccines and how does the prison system deal with infectious outbreaks.
We need a sequel! Ten more myths!
You pulled up in my feed yesterday and I’ve been binge watching since.
Larry should do a compilation of all his sponsorship videos, I would watch all of them again without skipping. Those stuff are better than 85% of other RUclips videos.
Spent 6-1/2 years as a guard and I can say that last part is accurate, when COVID hit the detainees started rioting and as a last resort they had a round the clock Cert team ready with riot shields and gear, the pepper spray and the pepper (spray) grenade launcher in the hallway ready to run into any dorm at any time it was crazy, and when the worst dorms went, I got orders to lock myself in the bathroom as a last resort since I was alone and no backup could be sent
"That guy is 3 times your size! Think Mark! He'll crush your bones into dust!"
Love your channel man, I was facing 37 years In 2020 your videos got me through a lot thank you
Thus guy is the cool uncle or grandpa that everyone wants
Hey Larry I appreciate you touching on that on that cancer I'm fighting stage 4 melanoma cancer been given like six to nine months to live but I'm fighting it so keep up the good work man loving your shows
Hope you are still with us friend
Hope you made it.
Honestly that manscape in the beginning had me dying when Larry took his shirt off
I don't know what made me click on this, but you reeled me right in, man. I think I could listen to you talking about almost anything on earth--I learned about tessiscula cancer, man-grooming, prison psychology, human nature, and somehow felt really 'edified' by this.
My friends are not going to understand when I share this on FB, but given where I'm from (New Orleans), I suspect this could be useful information to more people than I expect.
You are awesome. :)
I love your analysis Larry and your ads are hilarious
thanks - we have fun making them!
I randomly came across this video. Some other videos was recommended just only now watching. I've learnt new facts and I thank you
Thank you for making these videos, sir.
you bet - my pleasure
Never been to prison and hope to never go but you’re the best prison content creator out there man. Thanks for all you do.
13:27 Reminds me of the Morgan Freeman character in Stephen King's "The Shawshank Redemption."
One of the best people I ever met in my life was the "old man with advice". He could get on your nerves complaining and nagging about being locked up lol. But he was smart as hell and on top of that, he was hilarious! I could LISTEN to that dude talk all day and not say a word.
Love the videos Larry! Keep it up :)
thanks much appreciated
Omg, Larry 🤣 BEST AD EVER. Thank you for supporting and advocating for men's health! Its a topic that needs to be talked about, especially with how bad things are in our prison systems. The assaults need to stop, the system needs more levels to truly protect and rehabilitate when possible.
I'm so happy the hit the big guy thing wasn't true. I'm 6'4" and at the time was 280 lbs .That was back when I had to spend a few times to Cook County jail (had a drinking and drug problem for a few decades, have been clean and sober for over 15 years now though). I was almost always the biggest guy in the cell block and every time I had to go in, everyone would call me big show after the wrestler. So glad nobody came up and just hit me because I was big...that would have ruined my experience at the hotel California haha. New sub here as I've been enjoying your content, Thanks!
Eating ramen and watching videos about prison life has been my mood recently.
Huntsville prison in Huntsville Tx has their unclaimed cemetery about a block away. I was on the other side for 10 years as a Correctional Officer so I get a lot what you’re saying. Great job telling it how it is.
