Cant say it enough Theo, thank you brother.. its been a hard year, tomorrow is my 30th birthday, this time last year the woman i thought i was going to spend the rest of my life with left me after i found out she was cheating on me.. ive been gone this last year.. just spaced out. Lost my job and all sense of myself and self worth,. Its been dark. Hard. But listening to you,. Other comedians. Really does make these dark days brighter. Happy Birthday to myself.. ive never felt special on my birthday.. this one feels different.
Fuck a birthday bro, she gave you a clean slate. You may not see it yet, but she did you a favor. You got this bro, seize the damn day and squeeze every drop outta this life that you can. Godspeed 🚀
Happy early birthday brother and I am sorry to hear that. I've been through that and it's just a temporary bump in the road. You'll find a even better woman and even a better job next time keep fighting because it will get better! Happy gangsgiving
Happy 30th birthday brotha just know you have one life you may not realize but god has a plan for you , just keep your head up high eyes open ears cleared senses high , hel lead you the way u just gotta go with the flow stay true to yourself and be the best of you still ! Godbless
These solo eps always have me crying, Theo is so intelligent and articulate in the way he speaks and the way he expresses what he’s going through really hits home
Not me . Raised catholic. I wish church had that much swagger. Chris D’elia has some good impressions of my church . Except a few times going to some all black churches . Then it was on the opposite side .. more swagger then I could handle. I was up front with the mic for some of it . Peace be with you
I was a heroin addict for 20years and this talk about hope gave me strength to carry on. Been of drugs for 10 years and work as a nurse no.. Theo keep doing your thing
I've commented this so many times, but I have so much genuine love for theo. Whenever the day he passes away, which may the lord let it be very far into the future, I know it's going to hit me hard. He's one of the very rare "celebrities" that reached the highest level they can reach with their craft and still maintain his humanity and empathy for others
It really struck me when Theo said he "wants to do the simple things, like hug my sister...". 'Cos it's not simple at all. Lost my sister 20yrs ago when I was 17 n she was 21 in a car accident n it devestated our family, and me. Now it feels weird to hug or even touch anyone, even my mum. Hugging your siblings, parents, family, friends, is not simple but very important. Critical. Don't ever take that opportunity for granted, it can literally be taken away instantly. Appreciate the ppl u love, n express that love while u can, when u can. My only advice.
My parents never hugged me after I was a toddler. I hug my kids every day and the coolest thing is, even my teenage sons have zero thoughts or shyness about hugging their papa anywhere, even in front of other kids. it took me until I was well into adulthood to realize I had missed this so much in my childhood.
@@smokey5883 I'm sorry to hear that, it sucks. Thanks, same. I think it's possible. Am certainly gonna' keep trying til my dying day - and you should too, you deserve it!
To that young man who just found out his dad isn’t his biological dad, remember this. The man who gave you his genes was not the man who raised you. Whether or not your mom wanted him in your life, he made the conscious decision to leave you out of his all this time. That being said; another man loved your mom enough to take care of you and raise you as his own. Love him just like you always have, but never forget that you came from a different place. Let this pain make you a stronger and better man
One day you'll learn, why your father wasn't going to raise a child with a horrible woman...and that woman probably wouldn't suddenly change into a decent person. One day, you'll idolize that man with convictions that left. That knew if he couldn't raise you to be his son, because other people had you ninety percent of the time. That he wouldn't be there to lead a proper example for you. Let that be the biggest example in your life in your path to manhood. You don't fold to others, or live by their rules.
I get what you're saying man, but... my heart breaks every time I think about how my 9-year old brother doesn't know his dad isn't really his biological dad. And that both of them abandoned him...
The man who works hard for you and shows you his love is your father. This is the way God wanted it to be. Open your heart and let this man be your father. Give him all the love that he has given you. He deserves it, as much as you deserve his love. If you still need help processing this, turn to God and ask him. He will give you the answer you are looking for, I promise
This is my literal situation, and I'm still trying to process how someone could leave their own blood, and barely fight to see them even after 30 years. The man that raised me, for me. Not because he loved my mother but because that was what he thought was right.
@@KaliBeatsYoSoyAquel It has potential to mess you up for sure. I was seven when I found out neither of my parents were my parents. I do wish I was a bit older when I found out, because I just didn't know how to cope. Might have been worse the other way though, never know. I'm just thankful I had my big brother to go through it with. Good luck to you guys💛
These Solo episodes always seem to drop exactly when we all need them the most. Setting boundaries and "managing yourself so you can stay alive". 💜 Be good to yourself.
Just lost everything this year my girl my car my place to live everything I worked for over the last 4 years is gone this’ll probably be one of the worst thanksgivings I’m gonna have but at least we got people like Theo to watch to try and get through it
Jack It's never too late to start over you have the most important thing in the world and it's you, just know it can always be worse and you are not alone ! Triple Gang Mane 😎
Well I suck at sharing, being vulnerable but I'm gonna try. Keeping me in tears Theo. Struggling.Trying to keep hope alive man but it's hard homeless and sitting alone in a garage of a friend freezing my ass off. Thank you Theo. You're openness is unique and cherished . Gang gang brother.
@@Kickboxingenthusiasts thank you. Many have a lot but lack happiness. What we all lack is meaningful connections. Independence is so important but we forget that independence doesn't mean/never equalled alone and/or unable to have attachments to community but that's not focused on at all so we go about achieving and accomplishing and acquiring stuff that were told is what signifies success but later discover that some holes can't be filled w awards, degrees, things, power, etc. That's because we are connected. To God, earth, re ach other and when we don't nurture and preserve and respect that basic truth those connections fade, get damaged or are lost and then we're just alone. Poor and alone. Rich and alone. I'm lost and alone. You're strong as well my friend. I hope we pray we both find our way back to belonging because then we build our own community and it makes the community at large have connections and purpose and with that we can help others and when we can give ourselves to others it completes the cycle.
Literally the first minute brought me to tears. We lost my grandfather this year, and moved my grandma in with my mom. This will be our first thanksgiving without him. You made me laugh and cry at the same time… and that’s why I love you Theo. Thank you so much for being true to you. And getting us through our tough times….. Happy thanksgiving guys.
Probably the only podcast that will having you peeing your pants from laughing & then a few moments later your eyes are leaking like a faucet. ❤🥹 much love Theo, Gang gang.
Just celebrated my birthday by myself, and I will be going into the holidays completely by myself. But I'm glad I got your podcast brother it really is a light and in a not necessarily bright time. Thank you for all you do brother know that you don't struggle alone, you are my favorite living comedian. God bless
I just died at “Ok this is getting a little dark… Happy Thanksgiving” 😂 Thank you Theo for blessing us with this T-sgiving special. Hope you have a great one. You deserve it.
Theo your podcast makes me so happy. You remind me a lot of who my fiancé once was before we both kinda fell into a really rough and crushing financial rut that swung him into a really deep depression I’m hoping God can pull him out of. Watching/listening to these podcasts gives me a lot of hope he’ll be back swingin and gang-gangin’ again soon
Sometimes when I’m all alone and painting late at night, I’ll slowly turn down the music, put my paint brush down And ill just say for absolutely no reason in Theo’s slow drawl, “Gray Block Pizzaaa…..Get dat Hiiittterrrrr.” Then I’ll chuckle and return to reality. Thanks for ur podcasts they keep me company lol
I want to say Happy Thanksgiving to Theo and the Gang. Im having a very tough week as I'm covering for a bunch of people out of office and it's been tough but this is what I needed to hear. Thanks Theo, your insights and how you see the world is truly enlightening & inspiring. Love you brother!
That phrase has helped me most with washing paint brushes. Before I would just say screw it’s only 7 dollars for a new brush but I started washing that thing once I realized if I’m gunna cut corners here why would I think I could run something big . Maybe one day I’ll be rich enough to pay someone else to wash paintbrushes .
I know it’s standard for comedians to put out specials every few years and there’s seemingly a lot of pressure, but what Theo does it so much harder to do and has way more value than a special in my opinion. Theo’s doing the world a service by coming out with these.
Theo, so many of us here are truly grateful from the bottom of our hearts that you and openly share yours. You show up and talk about it all the good, the rough and the painful. We're all going through it and hearing you so genuinely share your stories helps us all heal or at least feel connected and not alone. Thank you.
Hey Theo - Whats up, Fam, Hey I just wanted to let you and the rest of the community that as of November 18th I am officially 1 year free of alcohol. I mean, I had one beer at UFC 281 at MSG to celebrate, but I don’t have any desire to drink anymore. Your podcast really got me going in the direction I needed to go and helped me realize that I could be free from alcohol and a few months into the journey, helped me feel normal about seeking help. I’ve been going to therapy for 8 or 9 months now and I’m still on the journey towards happiness, but you really inspire people and I value these solo podcasts the most. If anyone is reading this and doesn’t think they can do it, I was exactly where you were a year ago. You’ve got this. I believe in you. Gang gang.
This episode hit so hard, that listened to it twice back to back. Especially the guy who mentioned having a hard time with his emotions and gets mad when he bumps into things. I struggle with the same issues of self loathing and being hyper critical of myself. Keep up the hard work Theo!!
Happy Gangsgiving bruh!🔥 Its gonna be a lonely holiday season, my girlfriend passed away back in January but all my favorite comedians are forever getting me through the worst days. We love you Theo!
His random analogies give me life I didn't know I needed sometimes. A few episodes ago, he said something along the lines of someone participating in incest is gonna result in the baby being born as a hot air balloon, or a lava lamp and I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Also, I can relate to him so much more being that were both in recovery. I'm so glad he's doing so well right now, and doing what he loves. Shit like that gives this recovering alcoholic hope for the future to keep it moving, keep pushing and aim for the stars. Just celebrated 3 years sober in September, and Theo's humor and his random shit he spews out sometimes is just enough of what I need to hear to keep moving sometimes. My Grandfather, and Stepdad passed two days after my 3 years, and it's been really hard on me lately and my family.. So thank you for all the laughs and making life worth living sometimes, you don't know how much the impact you have on others when life hits them suddenly.
This one is a banger!! Especially for all of us that lean on this man like a Sunday sermon...Theo, you came with them hitters this week!! I love the energy. It's so obvious how bright your light is currently shining brother..forever thankful for you!! I love you brother, Gang!
You are a gift. I know it’s not just for me but you are so special to me. Thank you for showin up. Good on you for bein a professional when it is absolutely painstakingly exhausting at times. You’re an inspiration
Thanks for the content brother. Love how honest and open you are while weaving in your unique sense of humor. I got sober when I was 21 after being in and out of rehab from 16 until then. I kept it together for 5 years and then had one of those slips that’s lasted for about four years and is still going. I want to want to get sober, I know I need to, but I just can’t quite stop this time. Doesn’t seem to be much light at the end of the tunnel, but I for sure look forward to your podcast among very few other things. Enjoy the holidays!
4 days off weed. Never felt better. Thank you Theo for showing me that I can do it & it’s brighter on the other side. I know it’s not long but this is the first time ever I’ve been able to go more then a few hours without needing to get high. So thank you I’ll strive for that year 🙏🏼
I just have to add, that if you have PTSD from being terrorized by people who you’ve known as “family”, blood or adopted, it’s very possible and healthy to Love them at a distance until they’ve had deliverance from those demons.
Thewo, thank you for this episode. This years been hard on my family, but we've kept hope up that things will be better. You're spot on talking about how holding on to that anger over things gives you power, but hope gives us way more power than anger does. At the beginning of this month, I was riding my motorcycle to report for jury duty when I was hit by a semi truck. I have every right to be angry at the truck driver, but I can only hope that he will take that accident as a learning experience and look for motorcycles from now on. I'm hoping that this coming year is going to be better for everyone on this planet.
The part about growing up and letting go of your inner child.. really hit home dude. Had to stop what I was doing to really absorb that message. Love you dude
Theo man! You are so gifted! You said a lot of things in this podcast I needed to hear! Thanks for that! Your so wise and I don’t think you give yourself enough credit for that! Happy gangsgivings brother!
Thank you Theo [and everyone] for sharing. This landed for me and reminded me how it is that I can stand here at 48 and continue to enjoy the ups and downs. Peace.
I’m not even 15 minutes in and I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. I’m going to ask for a middle eastern nut skin robe for Christmas this year.
Yes, I feel like life has burnt me a little lately - my dang health is frustrating me for being so young. Thank you for letting us know we all go through these emotions.
Just had to revisit this for some clarity and guidance. That last bit about growing up really hits. Appreciate the work you do and for being a vulnerable human in your own ways.
I actually love you dude. So glad I found you and this wonderful channel. Love to you my brother , hope to meet you one day. Peace and love from Ireland 🇮🇪
We really are closer to one another then we think. We’re all struggling. I came here to mention my “sad story” and the first 3 comments were my exact situation. Almost a sense of relief comes over me reading them. Anyway. Much love to you. The reader. Theo. And anyone who just tries to make this world a better place. Much love
Theo might have lacked the attention he needed/craved as a child, and even though there’s no way to regain that, know there are thousands of people who love you. You Have our attention. ❤
Theo your my brother that will always be there no matter what . I'll give the shirt off my back to anyone in need of anything. Last generation that understands the dark rock bottom of losing everything and struggle. If anyone needs someone to talk to if they are going through any shit holler at me I'm here for you. I hope everyone makes it out of the hole they are in. The only time I'm looking down on someone is when I'm helping them up . Life can be taken from us in a blink of an eye and never take it for granted ! 🤘
This podcast is the most human thing ever produced. It encapsulates everything from family to love, existential dread to addiction. If I was tasked with teaching an alien species about humanity, I'd just tell them to watch this
My brother and I (42, 44 yrs old, respectively) always exchange *I love yous* every time we talk/txt. No excuses. Cuz life is hard, but we're awesome and hilarious.
I love listening to you and your stories, you are just super real and the conversations you have with your callers are so truthful. Theo you are a real inspiration, especially for people who have struggled with themselves, addiction, life. Keep taking care of yourself, take time off when you need to, because we need you!!! There's a ton of people that you either make laugh and get them through the day, or truly help with us with addiction or just general self loathing🥲. OMG you just mentioned hiring someone for media/advertising. My daughter is in college and needs an internship, I'll have her send her resume!!!
I can't even say how much I look forward to these. I have started with the very beginning of the podcast and am slowly moving through them to savor them! Thanks for being you
Cant say it enough Theo, thank you brother.. its been a hard year, tomorrow is my 30th birthday, this time last year the woman i thought i was going to spend the rest of my life with left me after i found out she was cheating on me.. ive been gone this last year.. just spaced out. Lost my job and all sense of myself and self worth,. Its been dark. Hard. But listening to you,. Other comedians. Really does make these dark days brighter.

Fuck a birthday bro, she gave you a clean slate. You may not see it yet, but she did you a favor. You got this bro, seize the damn day and squeeze every drop outta this life that you can. Godspeed 🚀
Happy early birthday brother and I am sorry to hear that. I've been through that and it's just a temporary bump in the road. You'll find a even better woman and even a better job next time keep fighting because it will get better! Happy gangsgiving
Happy 30th birthday brotha just know you have one life you may not realize but god has a plan for you , just keep your head up high eyes open ears cleared senses high , hel lead you the way u just gotta go with the flow stay true to yourself and be the best of you still ! Godbless
Happy Birthday! Be good to yourself - YOU deserve it ❤
Happy Birthday dude 🎉
When Theo says “ what am I talking about “ and pauses.. I lose it every time 😂😂
“But anyway.. I don’t even know what I’m talkin bout now” 😂
Gets me everytime 😅
These solo eps always have me crying, Theo is so intelligent and articulate in the way he speaks and the way he expresses what he’s going through really hits home
What a damn gift to society this man is.
you can really see Theo's genuinely kind, empathetic soul in his responses to the 3rd caller - the one who's in recovery and 57 days sober
As a Canadian you gotta go to Australia during North American winter because it is summer over there in Australia 🇦🇺
I love Theo. He is like if your pet dog could talk to you. Full of wonder and always happy to talk about shit.
Great analogy for Theo!
Gang! Gang!
He's the golden retriever/lab cross lol
And Eddie there too as a terrier

Talking to yourself for a hour 30 and being so funny is insane 😂 love you Theo happy thanksgiving !
But when I do it without a camera I’m called crazy wtf
@@cMind607 lol
And they call me schizophrenic
idk i do it all the time. I'm my favorite person to talk to
It is pretty funny to think about haha. He really is just talking to himself. Imagine if there was no audience.
Never been to church but the first few minutes seems exactly why people would go every Sunday. Thank you Theo
You should try it sometime, probably not what you think
Not me . Raised catholic. I wish church had that much swagger. Chris D’elia has some good impressions of my church . Except a few times going to some all black churches . Then it was on the opposite side .. more swagger then I could handle. I was up front with the mic for some of it . Peace be with you
But maybe that’s the vibe of rolling through the pearly gates
Theo would absolutely crush it as a pastor. People would be into it.
I was a heroin addict for 20years and this talk about hope gave me strength to carry on. Been of drugs for 10 years and work as a nurse no.. Theo keep doing your thing
Respect
Theo is literally blending non denominational church with outrageous & true life comedy. Love this guy
Jesus is king haha Theo one of the new 🐐
I get more out of these podcasts than a Catholic mass.
Happy Gangsgiving... I'm thankful for this man right here helping keep my sanity one episode at a time
Amen
You need help

Your podcast really got me going in the direction I needed to go and helped me realize that I could be free from alcohol and a few months into the journey, helped me feel normal about seeking help.
I’ve been going to therapy for 8 or 9 months now and I’m still on the journey towards happiness, but you really inspire people and I value these solo podcasts the most.
If anyone is reading this and doesn’t think they can do it, I was exactly where you were a year ago. You’ve got this. I believe in you.
Gang gang.
Love these Theo alone ones
i really needed to hear your first 10 minutes... Thank you for being you Theo. Much Love Gang Gang
Theo is such a good man. He’s not just a hilarious comedian but he is helping so many people
This episode hit so hard, that listened to it twice back to back. Especially the guy who mentioned having a hard time with his emotions and gets mad when he bumps into things. I struggle with the same issues of self loathing and being hyper critical of myself. Keep up the hard work Theo!!

Happy thanksgiving, Theo!!! Thanks for chopping it up with us after your show in SD!
Theo is the perfect combination of dirty old man and the best friend you always wanted. ❤️
Thankful for you Theo and all my fellow Rat King followers. God bless y'all. Tell people you love em and help the hopeless.
Noah's call and Theo's respone was so relatable to how i am too myself. Man that made me emotional. Thankyou Theo ❤ stay strong everyone. Praise God
These episodes are literally a form of therapy
Theo is a genuinely inspiring person.
Happy Gangsgiving bruh!🔥
Its gonna be a lonely holiday season, my girlfriend passed away back in January but all my favorite comedians are forever getting me through the worst days. We love you Theo!
His random analogies give me life I didn't know I needed sometimes. A few episodes ago, he said something along the lines of someone participating in incest is gonna result in the baby being born as a hot air balloon, or a lava lamp and I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
Also, I can relate to him so much more being that were both in recovery. I'm so glad he's doing so well right now, and doing what he loves. Shit like that gives this recovering alcoholic hope for the future to keep it moving, keep pushing and aim for the stars. Just celebrated 3 years sober in September, and Theo's humor and his random shit he spews out sometimes is just enough of what I need to hear to keep moving sometimes. My Grandfather, and Stepdad passed two days after my 3 years, and it's been really hard on me lately and my family.. So thank you for all the laughs and making life worth living sometimes, you don't know how much the impact you have on others when life hits them suddenly.
I could listen to Theo for hours. Such an amazing human being. Thanks for making us laugh and feel.
This one is a banger!! Especially for all of us that lean on this man like a Sunday sermon...Theo, you came with them hitters this week!! I love the energy. It's so obvious how bright your light is currently shining brother..forever thankful for you!! I love you brother, Gang!
You are a gift. I know it’s not just for me but you are so special to me. Thank you for showin up. Good on you for bein a professional when it is absolutely painstakingly exhausting at times. You’re an inspiration
Hello 👋 How are you doing today?
Are you still there??
Let’s gooo! You know it’s gonna be a good day when theo releases a new episode! Happy thanksgiving y’all
Happy Gangsgiving to U & Ur's.
Thanks for the content brother. Love how honest and open you are while weaving in your unique sense of humor. I got sober when I was 21 after being in and out of rehab from 16 until then. I kept it together for 5 years and then had one of those slips that’s lasted for about four years and is still going. I want to want to get sober, I know I need to, but I just can’t quite stop this time. Doesn’t seem to be much light at the end of the tunnel, but I for sure look forward to your podcast among very few other things. Enjoy the holidays!
4 days off weed. Never felt better. Thank you Theo for showing me that I can do it & it’s brighter on the other side. I know it’s not long but this is the first time ever I’ve been able to go more then a few hours without needing to get high. So thank you I’ll strive for that year 🙏🏼
I just have to add, that if you have PTSD from being terrorized by people who you’ve known as “family”, blood or adopted, it’s very possible and healthy to Love them at a distance until they’ve had deliverance from those demons.
Thewo, thank you for this episode. This years been hard on my family, but we've kept hope up that things will be better. You're spot on talking about how holding on to that anger over things gives you power, but hope gives us way more power than anger does. At the beginning of this month, I was riding my motorcycle to report for jury duty when I was hit by a semi truck. I have every right to be angry at the truck driver, but I can only hope that he will take that accident as a learning experience and look for motorcycles from now on. I'm hoping that this coming year is going to be better for everyone on this planet.
Glad you were OK friend. Sounds like the old Guardian angel was looking out for you?.... wishing you and your family the best.
Hope you will heal up with no lasting injuries and everyone involved is taking with them what they needed to learn from the experience ❤
Ay bro this podcast is hitting at the most perfect time, thankful for you and the TPW community
1:55 “I’m amazed sometimes at my ability to be loving towards strangers but then lacking that same compassion for myself” FAX THEO 💯
The part about growing up and letting go of your inner child.. really hit home dude. Had to stop what I was doing to really absorb that message. Love you dude
You've gotten me through a lot. Love you Theo!
Theo man! You are so gifted! You said a lot of things in this podcast I needed to hear! Thanks for that! Your so wise and I don’t think you give yourself enough credit for that! Happy gangsgivings brother!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING MY AMERICAN FRIENDS 🦃🦃🦃
HAPPY GANGSGIVING TO YOU TOO MY AMERICAN FRIEND!
Keep coming back to this episode. It's the Goat for me so far.
Thank you Theo [and everyone] for sharing. This landed for me and reminded me how it is that I can stand here at 48 and continue to enjoy the ups and downs.
Peace.
I’m not even 15 minutes in and I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. I’m going to ask for a middle eastern nut skin robe for Christmas this year.
Gang Gang yall talking about the Devils chicken nuggets!
Mannn I didn't think id do much laughing n smiling today but thank God for Theo. We love you Theo, Happy Thanksgiving!
Yeeee was just listening on spotify waiting for this!
Yes, I feel like life has burnt me a little lately - my dang health is frustrating me for being so young. Thank you for letting us know we all go through these emotions.
Just had to revisit this for some clarity and guidance. That last bit about growing up really hits. Appreciate the work you do and for being a vulnerable human in your own ways.
Theo is a lifesaver and needs to be protected at all cost
I actually love you dude. So glad I found you and this wonderful channel. Love to you my brother , hope to meet you one day. Peace and love from Ireland 🇮🇪
when i write my list of what i’m grateful for, better believe theo von is way up there … happy thanksgiving, friends 🦃❤️
Imagine a world where everyone was as open, sweet AND funny as Theo !
We really are closer to one another then we think. We’re all struggling. I came here to mention my “sad story” and the first 3 comments were my exact situation. Almost a sense of relief comes over me reading them. Anyway. Much love to you. The reader. Theo. And anyone who just tries to make this world a better place. Much love
Your solo pods never fail to brighten my day, I’ll listen to them a couple of times just so I know I didn’t miss anything
You’re changing lives by just simply being you ❤
Theo might have lacked the attention he needed/craved as a child, and even though there’s no way to regain that, know there are thousands of people who love you. You Have our attention. ❤
This is what I've been needing. A one-on-one talk from the man upstaaaaaaaairs 💙 love you rat king
Theo really helped me become more vulnerable and open myself up to friendships and relationships. This man is amazing
I’m just watching this now, I’ll take a hug! Happy thanksgiving, sending love from Scotland! ❤
Theo youre on fiya today! Best monologue ive heard ina hot minute buddy. Gangulater
I was at that San Diego show, and Theo roasting that security guard was hilarious 😂
Theo man, your honesty is so appreciated each and every podcast. You might not know the impact you have on a life, but you’ve impacted mine.
This was one of your best episodes yet. Thank you for the honesty and being genuine with your thoughts. It was a delightful watch/listen.
I've seen a couple of your vids and you're growing on me.. sweet and humble, happy thanksgiving 💖💖💖✌
Not having the best year & your comedy has helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel. The nutskin sheer coat was genius😂
“You got them 1990’s nuts.” LMAOOOOO
Theo your my brother that will always be there no matter what . I'll give the shirt off my back to anyone in need of anything. Last generation that understands the dark rock bottom of losing everything and struggle. If anyone needs someone to talk to if they are going through any shit holler at me I'm here for you. I hope everyone makes it out of the hole they are in. The only time I'm looking down on someone is when I'm helping them up . Life can be taken from us in a blink of an eye and never take it for granted ! 🤘
Hello 👋 How are you doing today?
@@David_Robert_1 I'm doing good brother and how are you ?
@@toddchadct Good. Nice to meet you here
Well my name is Robert I’m originally from Texas USA. You??
@@toddchadct Hi 👋
This podcast is the most human thing ever produced. It encapsulates everything from family to love, existential dread to addiction. If I was tasked with teaching an alien species about humanity, I'd just tell them to watch this
I genuinely love listening to this man. We love you Theo.

Funniest, genuine man I've ever seen. Love from the UK 🇬🇧
Call me nuts, but I think Theo is like a transmitter that picks up on the right words we need to hear an sends them across time and space
My brother and I (42, 44 yrs old, respectively) always exchange *I love yous* every time we talk/txt. No excuses. Cuz life is hard, but we're awesome and hilarious.
I love listening to you and your stories, you are just super real and the conversations you have with your callers are so truthful. Theo you are a real inspiration, especially for people who have struggled with themselves, addiction, life. Keep taking care of yourself, take time off when you need to, because we need you!!! There's a ton of people that you either make laugh and get them through the day, or truly help with us with addiction or just general self loathing🥲. OMG you just mentioned hiring someone for media/advertising. My daughter is in college and needs an internship, I'll have her send her resume!!!
Gang gang son. Onward 🍻
Love you Theo! Thanks for making me laugh my ass off every time you post
Man the intro is so good its like therapy
I can't even say how much I look forward to these. I have started with the very beginning of the podcast and am slowly moving through them to savor them! Thanks for being you
