I've met Alex many times on the fight circuit. He's always been friendly polite and respectful when dealing with people. He gets some stick but laughs most of it off. He's a good guy and was a better fighter than given credit for. He said he got into fight sports to be tough.... He certainly achieved that objective. Good luck to you Alex.
He's masculine, quirky and people pick on that thinkng it's a free prey. I like the guy, you could see who he was in bigbrother, hope he has fun as he continues on his interesting journey.
I've had the complete opposite experience with him. Found him to be so ridiculous with the way he put himself across that barely anyone wanted to go near him unless they had to. Pretty obvious as well that he'd do anything to get back on telly which hasn't helped added to his appeal.
This man has been dragged through the shite by the media vultures, the strength of character to get though all that an not jump of the bridge is amazing mental strength at its finest well done Alex and good luck

Alex is more genuine, honest & sincere than the media & public have given him credit for. What he does in his private time is his business alone and no one else’s. I appreciated this interview and it was refreshing to have such a plain honest discussion.
I've known Alex for 20 years now and in my opinion he is the same guy now that he was then, still fighting one way or another and he is genuinely, hand on heart one of the nicest guys who could wish to meet. His dad was 1 in a million and his mum always made me the best cup of tea ever! Love the bones of them all. Well done brother ,great interview and once again you've shown the world how courageous you are. You've been through hell and back and I know how hard things have been for you pal. Speak soon pal much love. James thank you for giving Alex the opportunity he deserves 🤜🤛
It's lovely that he has a good friend like you standing by his side.. Alex always struck me as an intelligent gentle giant who would do you right a million times before doing you wrong. I hope he finds true happiness and put that awful women behind him,, he was always way to good for her! Bless him and bless you for having his back x
Maturity would've been honesty up front and before bringing children into the world. So many people are forced to accept this stuff, when in reality, who would want to be in a position like that..? I see Katie Price as a survivor: good for her that she's struck a deal with Channel 4, most especially since 'bankruptcy' was mentioned! She found a way to save her house, to provide for her children, and she's willing to roll up her sleeves and work. What is this human doing - other than drawing other people's narratives into his own, then Alex plays the victim much of the way through this interview. Such people leave devastation in their wake and that's no message of empowerment. Not from where I'm sitting. I won't be manipulated by yet another 'start again as somebody else' story. I've yet to meet a trans person who wasn't bullied as a child: always blaming, it must be so weirdly confusing to have kids with such a person, and their narratives are usually ALL about them, and ONLY about them.
@@jackgrant7356 Yes, honestly about the 'cross dressing'. You won't deprive me of the free will to speak. Neither you, nor anyone else. Either way I'll air my opinion.
I feel bad for falling for the media perception of Alex Reid...clearly a guy with his heart in the right place. I wish him all the success and peace of mind.
I watch most of your podcasts but this one is special to me. I have contacted the bob reid foundation as i went through family court and it more or less gave me a mental breakdown. The same thing has happened that if i want to see my kids i have to go back to court but am so scared for my mental health and how i got treated as i dont have money for a solicitor. There needs to be more people out there that help in this way as men without money suffer in the family court. Thank you so much for what you do James
Not just men women too sorry your going through it … it’s so sad and bad the system i now realise that parental responsibility means nothing in court 😢
Actually met Alex Reid in a bar in Billericy He approached me and a friend and started talking to us , seeing him on tv I always thought he was a nob but having actually spoke to him he was a nice genuine guy
Listening to this has woken me up, Alex Reid is a Top Bloke, this has to be one of the best I've ever seen so thank you James, i have been in a bad place for the the last 10 Weeks, and i have never been so low, turned of my phone, the people who really care will drop you a email, thats who love you, so if there is any more depressed blokes watching this, there is help out there, this podcast has helped tonight So Thank you James and Alex
I feel the same. Seems like I’m just existing. We are all one though and here to support each other. Never thought I’d say this, but I’ve met some amazing virtual friends 😂 stay strong and know you are loved 👊🏻
@@deancarlanthonyraisingthec1135 Yep. I don't think that he seems so troubled. The difference is that he's open, he's being very open about his pain. Which is exactly what we all need to do if we ever want to have peace and healing.
Actually, the level of conscious advancement Alex portrays here is phenomenal! Not many can truly see how advanced his soul is. Yes, he's a great guy, but there is so much more to him than just this... He's a messenger with deep inner vision and universal wisdom. I don't think he even knows how special he is!
I didnt realise he was such a nice guy. Using your own pain experience to help others get through the same things, helps you to heal too. Ive been doing a form of that for 12 years, and it makes me feel soooooo good when people tell me they are only still here because of an outlet i have created.
It's always interesting to hear somebody you've only seen/heard portrayed in the media speaking freely and honestly. These interviews are fantastic, Alex comes across really well.
I never liked Alex Reid much but my god I take it back. He's so so gentle and friendly and I totally appreciate him sharing his life experiences. Also James is a great guy to and nice to look at were the same age to 😂😂😂😂😂👀😘
I've been following Alex since near the beginning of his mma career and as a man, I looked up to the fella for the complete bad ass that he is. I never paid attention to the media side of his life but as a man, he is as real as it gets. Great interview, fellas!.
He was with KP when he went in to the CBB house.. He won, she was waiting outside, whisked him away and married him there and then. He had no chance to get a career. I saw him on Shooting Stars later when he was guest and a lady on his team fell off her chair, he rushed over and gallantly helped her up. He as a gentleman.
I’ve never really had an opinion on Alex either way. I formed my opinion of KP years ago, possibly even before PA. He’s a guy who has experienced hurt his entire life, and I hope he is finally finding peace. Thanks to both of you for addressing Male mental health. I lost my dad to suicide when I was just 16, so too young to even know it was an issue. As a 49 year old I push the subject every chance I get. It’s not weak to speak. Great interview James, you have earned yourself another subscriber. (Even if you are Glaswegian)!! 😂
Like most of us he's bullied himself. We make bad decisions about our lives and future that we wouldn't edvise others to do. Seems like a good guy i just hope he stays safe
He’s obviously exhausted and totally over having to pretend to be someone other than his true self. Keep your chin up, Alex. Thank you for your honesty and bravery 💪🙏👍
Youd think alex would be a bellend but hes not, hes a normal guy that gets hurt just the same as everybody else. And katie price is the pits for doing that to him
He OK yeah. I remember he was in the film Sliding Doors, only a little clip for 5 secs but that's what I remember him from. Katie Price screw anyone up
Katie price, is a money grabbin 2 faced old boot to say it nice enough, but i dont know her just know of her, rest speaks for itself, mind the house got demolished ,tennis court was like a battle field, and theres princess price going through her phone book saying well were still on good terms he could maybe help fix a room oh and heres another....felt sorry for the kids
Such a lovely genuine, nice looking down to earth guy. Ignore the media Alex it's all pantomine, for them to make money , headlines. All the stress he's been through but not aged. Looking so young & healthy. Can clearly see he's well liked by a lot of people, that's why he won big brother, because he's real.Not fake. Can see him doing very well in his career. People who treat others bad says more about them than you. Most of the time it's jealousy. I detest bullies. Wishing you lots of good luck & happiness for the future .
I don’t read newspapers or watch tv news , I’ve only seen Alex in the past with Katie Price on TV. I wish you all the luck and love in the world Alex you are an authentic guy who will go on to help many people . Great Interview James English ❤️
Love Alex , such a gentle soul , how that toxic Katie Price has got away with bullying the men in her life & being such a terrible Mother , yet still makes the newspapers is beyond me !! Shows the double standards in our world .. Alex who’d make a great Father can’t see his Daughter ( shame on Chantelle !) & Price dumps hers to holiday regularly still sees hers ?? Great chemistry between you & Alex, James .. really enjoyed it !!
tincan tincan You didn’t listen he is the same person, you just met the version of him that day. For people who are deep there’s nothing they like more than bearing their soul, if you ain’t got a deep side you’ll never understand the conversations people have with themselves in their heads. To some it’s perfectly normal. People like Alexander don’t meet many on the same level. Good luck to him. I completely get it.
Unfortunately I don’t think he dodged it. I think he got hit. Square in the heart. But sounds like he’s healing. He’s got insight which a lot of people don’t have.
If you haven't met her in real life she is always late acts like a Diva difficult to work with a bit fake a Narcissistic at times and was abit too full of herself when with Pete
I met Alex when he was going through all the nastiness in the papers. It was in Yates in Leicester Square. He was humble, kind, friendly and a sounds guy.
James English for national radio or talk show in next 2 years great interview as usual .Alex Reid genuine honest chat stand up guy with a troubled soul kerp safe Alex
Great interview James.Alex seems like a really nice guy.I'm a big believer in Karma.Just sit back and watch Katie Price will get what's coming.Take it easy mate.
And look at her now letting some man 💩 on her chest that's about to explode 10k for that ... Karma has hit back she's lost it all, including her kids! She needs help, and this man had a lucky escape
For anyone to get involved with Katie Price seriously means only one thing! They don’t value themselves! Alex has always been really nice when I’ve spoke to him and treats everyone the same. I also felt Vinnie Jones bullied him in Big Brother and was wishing Alex would put him in his place which he could’ve easily done.
This is a great interview. James is really good at getting people to open up and also listening. Alex seems like a nice guy, I wish him all the best in life.
Top interview James.. Well done mate... What I love is you make interviewing look easy cos you just let it flow.. Sounds simple but so many interviewers don't do that.. Parkinson was the King of it.. Alex Reid comes across as a real nice fella. He's been fucked over by various things but looks like he's coming out the other side. Fair play Alex.. Keep it going and good luck pal 👍
I am no one important but James you and your guests inspire me and i have decided to make changes in my life. having struggled with mental health most of my life and tried taking my own life which lead me to wake up and smell the COFFE keep it up brother
Couldnt watch this all the way through Alex is the definition of a sensitive intelligent beautiful soul - affected by this world.He had no mental defenses against what he faced because none of us are born to witness or be subjected to this world is cruel...Im sorry Alex that life troubled you before you had a chance and you have spent the rest of your life trying to heal... Great interview - Alex has a presence and intensity that directed in the right way would make him a force to be reckoned with.Good luck Alex and God Bless.
Done some boxing training with Alex about 12 years ago in aldershot with the army. .just before he got with Katie. Great lad, great sense of humour. Seems to be a bit all over the shop, relationship and fame has clearly affected him. Great interview James hard to control the direction of that interview 👍
Came across james English podcast by accident on youtube if I'm honest, I've now lost count how many I've now watched in full. Keep up the good work mate ......❤🏴🌍
I loved the deep parts of this interview talk of ayahuasca, reiki, soul, awakening etc. I'm glad Alex was given a platform to be heard hes very sensitive but still harbours alot of anger around katie. I pray he finds relief from that so he can be totally free. Well done James you handled that interview with empathy and compassion although your jokes were hit and miss at times 😂
Stephen Edwards well he was classed as a celebrity still after the split by the media. He was still appearing on tv shows etc and being ridiculed for being her ex
Actually just stumbled across you last month mate , and I've bashed through all the podcasts 🤣🤣🤣 it's the way I roll 👌🏻😆😆😆 . Top man and your pods are 10/10 bro 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Katie price only married him because of him winning big brother so she could keep her face in the shop window.he was getting bully in big brother by Vinnie Jones. don't like Vinnie Jones he thinks he a gangster.alex Reid come across like a good person that got a few issues but ain't we .all good luck to him
@@popeye8813 he watched the piers Morgan show with vinny the other day & thinks he knows him plus he's got all the sympathy coz his wife died last year. Vinny was a bully on CBB. Facts.
Alex comes across as a thoroughly likeable, decent guy and puts himself across as quite eloquent and genuine. The life experiences he has experienced has kept him humble and down to earth. Wish you and your partner well.
Respect to alex reid, dont know him personaly, but the guy has heart and also been dragged through so much bullshit its unreal, good to see hes still going strong...
I felt quite emotional at times during this interview. Alex wants 2 help people, which is good, but I feel he could really do with some help. I hope he has some real + true friends around him. I like his honesty.
Alex seems like such a great guy, really enjoyed that. Comes across like the kind of pal anyone would love to have. I can't see how he would find someone so fake as Katie attractive, he seems the complete oposite to her. She must have some kind of voodoo shit going on, Peter Andre is a really nice guy as well, she just ploughs through love and life leaving devastation in her wake. I truly wish him all the best for his future, he surely deserves it. I've watched all James' podcasts and I think this is probably the most interesting for me. Well done James, great find.
This is a prime example of the public ppl being sheep and believing what they read or see! I’ve always liked Alex in my opinion he’s not a bad man, everyone’s got faults and ppl make mistakes it’s how we learn... to many ppl judge others without ever looking at themselves and it’s wrong.
James thanks for your podcasts ( Sonia's has been your best so far, you were both in the zone no one else was there but you two, amazing), your honest and a great listener. I love when you tell your guests that the shows ratings boosts your ego and then you realise what you've said and then you say it's all false BS though. Your just like everyone else in life looking for acceptance from people and you just want to be content with yourself. I'm sure your Podcasts are helping you in a big way as well as others. Keep up the good work James, Stay Safe.
I've only recently discovered your channel and I have to say it is brilliant. It's refreshly real and honest. There's big things on the cards for you James. Watching in Dublin, Ireland.
Broken people are the only people I allow into my life. They have been a gift of freedom. They have started the process of really living and contributing to society more than anyone else.
Interesting guest James. Your timing and poise in your interviews just keeps getting better and better man. Alex seems a man with a good heart but also a troubled soul. Complex and interesting although get the impression he is currently on a path to seek something which may not exist. Hard to describe but seemed more intense than relaxed the majority of the interview, perhaps just his personality which is no bad thing. Clear to me (although not putting all of the blame on her, as not heard her side of the story) a lot of Alex's current state is down to his time with KP. Hope he finds what he is looking for whatever it is..! ✌🏴
"You've did ur homework....." "yeah fucking right" bloody brilliant so glad I've found ur channel james! Interviews r quality content and gives insight to people i never had! Love love love this channel
There was always something about Alex that would make me feel sorry for him anytime I saw him on TV, this explains everything. All the best to this guy.
Always liked Alex and its been refreshing watching this, thanks James and Alex

James I am a very very old Scotsman who enjoys all your interviews and know you have had a very hard life but, I am amazed how fit and healthy you look now. you must have a huge female fan club with your present look. Smart Haircut clean shaven, no silly hats etc. my god I am jealous but, you have made a huge success with your many interviews compared to some of those overpaid Ginger Beers on morning Mainstream TV and, I wish you continued success.
You know Alex your telling your story I’m sure will help other people don’t underestimate yourself a blind men can see your vulnerability and it’s sweet your a nice man ni
In a previous podcast James you mentioned that you felt your time for settling down and finding your "rest of life partner" and that you are feeling more driven, positive and focused. I didn't realise you were 36, this is the age I suddenly felt different as a human and a man. I spoke with a friend who is film director, we discussed this and he made a point that a man is a Knave until he is 36 and then he can become a King. I have seen this in so many friends and believe it is true. Stick to your path and trust yourself.
One new subscriber James Thank you so much .Alex came over very well considering how troubled he is .Just goes to show how the media can destroy a persons reality to fit an agenda .Please wish him well ,he has shown warts and all
This is up there as the best you've done James ✔ credit to you and Alex for allowing the conversation to take the direction it has. ALEX your an amazing individual stay strong 💪 ❤
Hiya James, you're the only channel on RUclips that warrants any of my time! I tell everybody about you sir! Keep digging them heels in, cause you're smashing it! 👊 P. S..... You're podcasts are very, very educational. P. S.... Again.... Alex wish you all the luck, stay strong.
I hope Alex can find peace, that girl is hard work and this should be a warning to men and women who attract a narcissist and think they can be in a realtionship
Great interview James but poor por Alex my heart goes out to him, I just want to give him a hug you can see from this interview he's still haunted by his past he's a tortured soul I wish him well and hope he finds peace xx
I don't watch BB or that crap so only remember Alex from his relationship with Katie Price. Glad I watched this, new view of Alex Reid. What a nice and deep bloke. She broke him. Glad he's on the up.
I'm watching this again because you're about to release a Katie Price podcast and I hope you rewatched this before you interviewed her. Fingers crossed
Oh my god I was so confused. I lasted 40 minutes. All questions were skirved, avoided and sidetracked and nothing went in a straight line or had any detail. I like Alex and feel he is different haha as in cannot communicate as in tell a story from start to finish - he just goes off in so many directions ha
I think that the Katie situation has affected his public image. Whenever I think of him, I immediately think of him cross-dressing; and I now understand that isn't the image that he wants the public to have. I'm sure he can overcome it, as he seems like an ambitious guy - who knows what he wants.

we are in an any chosen gender now.
he still a nice man with a lovely girlfriend.
Youd think alex would be a bellend but hes not, hes a normal guy that gets hurt just the same as everybody else. And katie price is the pits for doing that to him
@Anthony Cooney oh I didnt know that, really? I dont really like hear says. Has it been addressed?
He OK yeah. I remember he was in the film Sliding Doors, only a little clip for 5 secs but that's what I remember him from. Katie Price screw anyone up
@Anthony Cooney why did he do that? Was it like a reverse thing to get the porn tapes off her?
Katie price, is a money grabbin 2 faced old boot to say it nice enough, but i dont know her just know of her, rest speaks for itself, mind the house got demolished ,tennis court was like a battle field, and theres princess price going through her phone book saying well were still on good terms he could maybe help fix a room oh and heres another....felt sorry for the kids
@@marko8482 shes awful, my ex is exactly the same 🤢
Such a lovely genuine, nice looking down to earth guy. Ignore the media Alex it's all pantomine, for them to make money , headlines. All the stress he's been through but not aged. Looking so young & healthy. Can clearly see he's well liked by a lot of people, that's why he won big brother, because he's real.Not fake. Can see him doing very well in his career. People who treat others bad says more about them than you. Most of the time it's jealousy. I detest bullies. Wishing you lots of good luck & happiness for the future .
I could always see the good side of Alex when he was in the media circus and the press really went for him claws out .
Genuine guy and a good man .
And that why u should never judge a book by its cover.
Love Ur interviews James . Alex seems broken 💔 but puts a good face on
@Jules Moules agreed 🤗
I don’t read newspapers or watch tv news , I’ve only seen Alex in the past with Katie Price on TV.
I wish you all the luck and love in the world Alex you are an authentic guy who will go on to help many people .
Great Interview James English ❤️
Love Alex , such a gentle soul , how that toxic Katie Price has got away with bullying the men in her life & being such a terrible
Mother , yet still makes the newspapers is beyond me !!
Shows the double standards in our world .. Alex who’d make a great Father can’t see his Daughter ( shame on Chantelle !) & Price dumps hers to holiday regularly still sees hers ??
Great chemistry between you & Alex, James .. really enjoyed it !!
I don’t know what it is but I feel sorry for this guy he seems quite down.
tincan tincan I think the fame also went to his head to and left him shell shocked
tincan tincan most likely have a worse life going into the system if social services interfere
tincan tincan
You didn’t listen he is the same person, you just met the version of him that day. For people who are deep there’s nothing they like more than bearing their soul, if you ain’t got a deep side you’ll never understand the conversations people have with themselves in their heads. To some it’s perfectly normal. People like Alexander don’t meet many on the same level. Good luck to him. I completely get it.
#Eton Posh Boy I totally agree with you. Most ppl are not willing to dive inside soul , that why can’t feel another person pain .
He seems so sweet and lovable
He dodged a bullet getting away from her
Unfortunately I don’t think he dodged it. I think he got hit. Square in the heart. But sounds like he’s healing. He’s got insight which a lot of people don’t have.
Exactly
If you haven't met her in real life she is always late acts like a Diva difficult to work with a bit fake a Narcissistic at times and was abit too full of herself when with Pete
She wanted Pete to Worship her all day long shes gone down hill since Pete Divorced her
@@FunnyCoastline-wx7rrI have to agree with you, Roxanne does come across as a narcissist. 😊
Another lesson learned not to pre judge people ! Really liked this podcast 😊
What a boring twat - not interesting at all. James n
Hats off to you for pulling it through …. He is not famous .
I actually love Alex Reid lol. Have since his Big Brother days. He really is just a nice guy under it all, you can tell. Great interview!! 😻👌🏼
I met Alex when he was going through all the nastiness in the papers. It was in Yates in Leicester Square. He was humble, kind, friendly and a sounds guy.
James English for national radio or talk show in next 2 years great interview as usual .Alex Reid genuine honest chat stand up guy with a troubled soul kerp safe Alex
👍🏼
Loved your interview😃
Great interview James.Alex seems like a really nice guy.I'm a big believer in Karma.Just sit back and watch Katie Price will get what's coming.Take it easy mate.
Think we’re all waiting for that 🙌
And look at her now letting some man 💩 on her chest that's about to explode 10k for that ... Karma has hit back she's lost it all, including her kids! She needs help, and this man had a lucky escape
In my eyes a genuine good guy and enjoyed hearing his story 👍
Brilliant podcast as usual SAMANTHA never really took to alex reid but seeing the guy now in a different light stay strong alex you will get there 💪
For anyone to get involved with Katie Price seriously means only one thing! They don’t value themselves! Alex has always been really nice when I’ve spoke to him and treats everyone the same. I also felt Vinnie Jones bullied him in Big Brother and was wishing Alex would put him in his place which he could’ve easily done.
@Michelle Prior that depends on the person. I think Alex had feelings for her and you’d have to be pretty insecure to that her seriously.
This is a great interview. James is really good at getting people to open up and also listening. Alex seems like a nice guy, I wish him all the best in life.
Top interview James.. Well done mate... What I love is you make interviewing look easy cos you just let it flow.. Sounds simple but so many interviewers don't do that.. Parkinson was the King of it..
Alex Reid comes across as a real nice fella. He's been fucked over by various things but looks like he's coming out the other side. Fair play Alex.. Keep it going and good luck pal 👍
I am no one important but James you and your guests inspire me and i have decided to make changes in my life. having struggled with mental health most of my life and tried taking my own life which lead me to wake up and smell the COFFE
keep it up brother
Great to hear brother ❤️
Couldnt watch this all the way through Alex is the definition of a sensitive intelligent beautiful soul - affected by this world.He had no mental defenses against what he faced because none of us are born to witness or be subjected to this world is cruel...Im sorry Alex that life troubled you before you had a chance and you have spent the rest of your life trying to heal... Great interview - Alex has a presence and intensity that directed in the right way would make him a force to be reckoned with.Good luck Alex and God Bless.
James is such a good interviewer and a really good and honest guy rate him a lot
Done some boxing training with Alex about 12 years ago in aldershot with the army. .just before he got with Katie. Great lad, great sense of humour. Seems to be a bit all over the shop, relationship and fame has clearly affected him. Great interview James hard to control the direction of that interview 👍
Yeah he's always seemed like a cool guy & was strung along by KP & got caught up in the fame game. I'm glad he got away from her
I never realised just how bad she was, this guys very articulate about mental health, hope his kids get to see him alot, hes a good influence.
Came across james English podcast by accident on youtube if I'm honest, I've now lost count how many I've now watched in full. Keep up the good work mate ......❤🏴🌍
Ok now stop talking about her. She loves it.
She does
He certainly not over Katie lol .
I loved the deep parts of this interview talk of ayahuasca, reiki, soul, awakening etc. I'm glad Alex was given a platform to be heard hes very sensitive but still harbours alot of anger around katie. I pray he finds relief from that so he can be totally free. Well done James you handled that interview with empathy and compassion although your jokes were hit and miss at times 😂
So GLAD I watched this with Alex Reid cos the media do pertray him as a bit of a wanker but in actuall fact, the geezers awrite.
He’s a very good guy
thought exactly the same
The media ???? he was forgotten about the second him and Katie split, a complete noboady.
Stephen Edwards well he was classed as a celebrity still after the split by the media.
He was still appearing on tv shows etc and being ridiculed for being her ex
Wee mental battle at the start there to determine who will be conducting the interview 😂😂✌
Actually just stumbled across you last month mate , and I've bashed through all the podcasts 🤣🤣🤣 it's the way I roll 👌🏻😆😆😆 . Top man and your pods are 10/10 bro 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ahahaha yes brother
Had to be done mate 👍🏻
Katie price only married him because of him winning big brother so she could keep her face in the shop window.he was getting bully in big brother by Vinnie Jones. don't like Vinnie Jones he thinks he a gangster.alex Reid come across like a good person that got a few issues but ain't we .all good luck to him
@Adam how do you know Adam do you.know him personally
@Adam that's my opinion about the man the guy can't act that what i should of said i dont like him as a actor.
@Adam YNWA 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
@Adamtake the day off you got the job
@@popeye8813 he watched the piers Morgan show with vinny the other day & thinks he knows him plus he's got all the sympathy coz his wife died last year. Vinny was a bully on CBB. Facts.
I always liked Alex Reid....this was a great podcast, definitely a fan now James English
👍🏼
Alex comes across as a thoroughly likeable, decent guy and puts himself across as quite eloquent and genuine. The life experiences he has experienced has kept him humble and down to earth. Wish you and your partner well.
Likeable! He don’t even pay for his own child
How do you know that?
Respect to alex reid, dont know him personaly, but the guy has heart and also been dragged through so much bullshit its unreal, good to see hes still going strong...
I felt quite emotional at times during this interview. Alex wants 2 help people, which is good, but I feel he could really do with some help. I hope he has some real + true friends around him. I like his honesty.
Intelligent guy, appreciate his honesty, enjoyed this podcast.
Alex seems like such a great guy, really enjoyed that. Comes across like the kind of pal anyone would love to have. I can't see how he would find someone so fake as Katie attractive, he seems the complete oposite to her. She must have some kind of voodoo shit going on, Peter Andre is a really nice guy as well, she just ploughs through love and life leaving devastation in her wake.
I truly wish him all the best for his future, he surely deserves it.
I've watched all James' podcasts and I think this is probably the most interesting for me.
Well done James, great find.
This is a prime example of the public ppl being sheep and believing what they read or see! I’ve always liked Alex in my opinion he’s not a bad man, everyone’s got faults and ppl make mistakes it’s how we learn... to many ppl judge others without ever looking at themselves and it’s wrong.
James thanks for your podcasts ( Sonia's has been your best so far, you were both in the zone no one else was there but you two, amazing), your honest and a great listener. I love when you tell your guests that the shows ratings boosts your ego and then you realise what you've said and then you say it's all false BS though. Your just like everyone else in life looking for acceptance from people and you just want to be content with yourself. I'm sure your Podcasts are helping you in a big way as well as others. Keep up the good work James, Stay Safe.
I've only recently discovered your channel and I have to say it is brilliant. It's refreshly real and honest. There's big things on the cards for you James. Watching in Dublin, Ireland.
Thanks Susan
How right were you Susan. 🙌🏼
James this is your calling in life ...... you make your guests feel at ease and its all real.... real talk .... love light and blessings to you
Much respect to Alex Reid nothing like what the press try to portray him as, a very intelligent intuned man. Learnt alot in this interview.
Broken people are the only people I allow into my life. They have been a gift of freedom. They have started the process of really living and contributing to society more than anyone else.
Interesting guest James. Your timing and poise in your interviews just keeps getting better and better man.
Alex seems a man with a good heart but also a troubled soul. Complex and interesting although get the impression he is currently on a path to seek something which may not exist. Hard to describe but seemed more intense than relaxed the majority of the interview, perhaps just his personality which is no bad thing.
Clear to me (although not putting all of the blame on her, as not heard her side of the story) a lot of Alex's current state is down to his time with KP.
Hope he finds what he is looking for whatever it is..!
✌🏴
People really need to stop comparing things that aren't rape, to actual rape.
"You've did ur homework....." "yeah fucking right" bloody brilliant so glad I've found ur channel james! Interviews r quality content and gives insight to people i never had! Love love love this channel
Thanks Ashley xx
@@JamesEnglish going to watch the David icke one next x
Loved this podcast, I felt like you both gave each other a little bit of yourselves, both true to each other to an extent.
There was always something about Alex that would make me feel sorry for him anytime I saw him on TV, this explains everything. All the best to this guy.
Well done Alex - praying for you and ur wee daughter 🙏❤️
Great interview! Watched a few james.. Best one so far! Alex Reid what a top bloke!
Always liked Alex and its been refreshing watching this, thanks James and Alex
James I am a very very old Scotsman who enjoys all your interviews and know you have had a very hard life but, I am amazed how fit and healthy you look now. you must have a huge female fan club with your present look. Smart Haircut clean shaven, no silly hats etc. my god I am jealous but, you have made a huge success with your many interviews compared to some of those overpaid Ginger Beers on morning Mainstream TV and, I wish you continued success.
You know Alex your telling your story I’m sure will help other people don’t underestimate yourself a blind men can see your vulnerability and it’s sweet your a nice man ni
In a previous podcast James you mentioned that you felt your time for settling down and finding your "rest of life partner" and that you are feeling more driven, positive and focused. I didn't realise you were 36, this is the age I suddenly felt different as a human and a man. I spoke with a friend who is film director, we discussed this and he made a point that a man is a Knave until he is 36 and then he can become a King. I have seen this in so many friends and believe it is true. Stick to your path and trust yourself.
Katie price is a rat..... it’s the best thing this man has done was leaving that dog - big respect too you Alex
I thought it was her who left him, cause of his crossdressing.
Danielle I don’t know but I know she’s a rat lol
Katie left him LoL
@@nicolasimpkins3640 regardless she’s a rat
One new subscriber James Thank you so much .Alex came over very well considering how troubled he is .Just goes to show how the media can destroy a persons reality to fit an agenda .Please wish him well ,he has shown warts and all
This is up there as the best you've done James ✔ credit to you and Alex for allowing the conversation to take the direction it has. ALEX your an amazing individual stay strong 💪 ❤
Thanks
Hiya James, you're the only channel on RUclips that warrants any of my time! I tell everybody about you sir! Keep digging them heels in, cause you're smashing it! 👊 P. S..... You're podcasts are very, very educational.
P. S.... Again.... Alex wish you all the luck, stay strong.
I hope Alex can find peace, that girl is hard work and this should be a warning to men and women who attract a narcissist and think they can be in a realtionship
Say it every week but the array of guests is unbelievable. Enjoy everyone as much as the last one 👍🏼 best podcasts about
Great interview James but poor por Alex my heart goes out to him, I just want to give him a hug you can see from this interview he's still haunted by his past he's a tortured soul I wish him well and hope he finds peace xx
Most tanned scotsman ever quality podcast aswell
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🏴🏴
Great interview James. I wish you all the best for the future Alex.
I don't watch BB or that crap so only remember Alex from his relationship with Katie Price. Glad I watched this, new view of Alex Reid. What a nice and deep bloke. She broke him. Glad he's on the up.
Fantastic interview James..Alex is a good guy.Great stuff ✌🏾✌🏾
Great interview james , good insight into Alex,s history 👍
I'm watching this again because you're about to release a Katie Price podcast and I hope you rewatched this before you interviewed her. Fingers crossed
That looked like a tricky interview!! You did really well navigating around this one James. As usual, excellent.
Oh my god I was so confused. I lasted 40 minutes. All questions were skirved, avoided and sidetracked and nothing went in a straight line or had any detail. I like Alex and feel he is different haha as in cannot communicate as in tell a story from start to finish - he just goes off in so many directions ha
@@kimhandley4416🤡
I think that the Katie situation has affected his public image. Whenever I think of him, I immediately think of him cross-dressing; and I now understand that isn't the image that he wants the public to have. I'm sure he can overcome it, as he seems like an ambitious guy - who knows what he wants.
