Brilliant interview, could listen to Pritchard stories all day
Andrew Pritchard is a legend. What a life he's had. Great story to hear. Well done again, Terry, for getting another amazing guest on. Im buzzing watching this one. ❤
Thanks Richard he has some mad stories!
One of the best interviews you've done so far Terry, look forward to part 2
Amazing Danny thanks buddy!
Always liked this guy. I was surprised when he mentioned Philip Magnus and Arsenal as I'm from Holloway. I got involved in the life and saw so much violence as a matter of course. Now I'm a Christian and after working in rehabilitation I live in SE Asia trying to help the poorest people and needy kids.
It was so good listening to someone with such a shrewd mind and an overall blinding geezer. Thanks for sharing.

Never met Andrew and grew up 20 years his younger, but I've never felt an ego from him considering how big he was. I feel like he just wanted to get to the top in no matter what he done and he lived his life that way. I'm glad he's found peace In his life now.
great shout!
Another brilliant episode. This podcast is so good. Head and shoulders above the rest.
Amazing Ross from your lips to gods ears
Listened to a few pods with Andrew and thought this would just be the same as the others in terms of what was asked and spoken about but it was very different, a great listen.
100% there are lot's of things Andrew has never spoken about previously so this was a bit of an exclusive
Yessssssss!!!!!!!! Been waiting for this for ages!
Nice one RBC
Best crime podcast without a doubt!
Nice one brother from your lips to gods ears
I concour. Best by far 👌
Another great pond cast Terry. I found the podcast to be incredibly captivating, particularly when Andrew and Terry discussed the intricate details of how the events were organized and executed. Andrew's personal story is also highly engaging; his ability to articulate his experiences is very level headed and captivating I believe it is truly inspiring how he has completely transformed his life and is now dedicated to assisting individuals who have faced similar challenges, demonstrating that there is a brighter path beyond a life of crime.
Thanks for the feedback on the episode James we appreciate your support!

Great interview tel .. Ap has an amazing story to tell and it’s true you probably only scratched the surface…. Would have liked him to go into a bit of detail around the icf doing there security…. I know our mate Carlton was there not sure about Andy or Cass but I’m sure they ripped him off at one point … maybe a question for part 2 ? Keep em coming Terry
Thanks SPM for the feedback, we are definitely going to be doing a part 2 as we did only just scratch the surface here with Mr Pritchard. Not sure if the security did rip him off as if they had of done I'm pretty sure that he would have mentioned it.
Another great episode 👏
Thanks
Best interview yet ,,,,top fella Andrew ,,well enjoyed it nice eork Terry 👏👏👏🍻🍻🍻🍻
Nice one Mick appreciate the feedback fella!
This is absolutely fascinating 👍🙌
A crazy life with so many mad stories!!
I loved the early rave days sold E’s at all the free outdoor parties and lots of outdoor events never in clubs… the West Country didn’t do the club raves we were too edgy for that we wanted to hear music we didn’t know and new tunes which the club d.js were way behind the south west was unique for this late 80s early 90s…. My prices ranged from free to proper ravers I knew to posh boys from uni for £30s … I made more at weekends than my monthly salary at that time… everybody knew me and I loved it from that led to me selling hash for years then finally high grade weed from Amsterdam and Scotland where it was grown under lights… this is where the strain northern light’s originated…. I could do a pod cast with my stories lol
Proper geezer. That's how u do it
Find your podcasts very entertaining to listen to 👍
Always like andrews stories the raves avid house raves and the icf coming in too do the security for them legend x
So many great stories

This was such a good podcast… I had no idea Andrew did Genesis. lol I remember Genesis on the hill, I was 17 and it pissed down, people slipping down the hill in the mud, we knicked the tarpaulin off the speakers to make a dry camp, sat under it until the rain stopped and no one said a thing. 😂
Thank you both. ❤
Nice one and Zena thanks for watching and feeding back on the episode

Remember the genesis raves , Brilliant times , like Andrew I went on to live a similar life, 23 years in sentences, total waste of life,but don't regret the beginning
Andrew Pritchard knows his history about the Bangladeshi in Brick Lane 👊🏽. Hats off to you both and Terry you did a good job with the archive of the Bangladeshi community at 6:55 that photo is from 1977, they are my uncles, they use to fight NF skinheads between 1978-1982. We took over Brick Lane from Jews in the 60s and still here in 2024 💪🏽
Nice one mate and appreciate the feedback 👊
I've got his book this fella is really interesting
Fragrance du Bois! what was that £250.00 is that a Years supply!
It depends on how much you use it, but you'd only wear this for special occasions it's not an every day fragrance unless you want to smell of money 💰💸
@@terrystone743 lol smell of money yeah there was a time where id probally have bought a few Bottles!
Wish i still had my collection of flyers
Wish I had some Doves 😂
Knife crime continues to plague communities across the country, particularly affecting young people who are both perpetrators and victims. Addressing this issue requires a multifaceted approach that combines education, community engagement, and innovative interventions. The AP Foundations has put out a call to action under the banner of the "Who's Next" campaign and developed a seven-step comprehensive plan to shift mindsets and reduce knife crime among youth. By building strategic alliances with established campaigners, DJ producers, Actors, and organizations such as Faron Paul's "Fan Amnesty," DBA Projects' "One Chance," Youth Unity, Factory East, and Fabio D'Andrea.
Objectives
Reduce knife crime among young people.
Educate and raise awareness about the consequences of knife crime.
Provide support and rehabilitation to at-risk youth.
Engage the community in proactive prevention efforts.
Advocate for stronger policies and emergency preparedness.
Andrew was what the rest think they were… ignore the other wafflers and just watch him… he’s not lying or giving it large… he is as legitimate as anyone I’m aware of all things considered
One of your best interviews Terry, much prefer the shrewd lads they can bring something proper to the table, rather than the thicko meat heads who are mentally weak. Keep them all coming tho 🫡👏
Thanks for the feedback on this episode and glad to hear you loved Andrew!
He’s got a great way about him.
You’d get called Terry 50 Stone 😂😂😂

**Sarcastic Ghetto News Report:**
Good evening, folks! In today's top story, we delve into the latest and most unexpected development in the world of crime: women in hijabs have become the best drug runners worldwide. That's right, these modestly dressed ladies have now become the gangsters' top pick for smuggling on the roads. The police are in absolute disarray over this new trend, and it's causing quite a ruckus.
At the CCTV headquarters, the scene is one of utter confusion. Officers are glued to screens, trying to make sense of the footage. "Is it her? Or maybe her?" they mutter as hire cars zip by, driven by hijab-wearing gangsters who blend in seamlessly with everyday traffic. The Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras are practically useless; these clever ladies have managed to outsmart the system. The footage shows cars, but the faces? Completely obscured. It's a game of cat and mouse, and the cats are losing.
Religious leaders are up in arms, inundating the police with heaps of complaints. "How dare you profile our women?" they cry. Good Muslim women, just going about their day, are being stopped and questioned on the streets. "Am I a crook or just heading to the grocery store?" they ask, bewildered by the sudden attention. The line between law-abiding citizens and criminals has never been blurrier.
Meanwhile, the Metropolitan Police are scratching their heads, wondering what to do next. Their usual tactics are falling flat, and the streets are filled with nervous energy. Every hijab-clad woman has become a subject of scrutiny, much to the dismay of the community. The police are caught between a rock and a hard place, trying to enforce the law without stepping on religious freedoms.
It's a mess, folks. But one thing is for sure: these hijab-wearing drug runners have taken the underworld by storm, leaving the police baffled and the public divided. God bless the good Muslims, indeed. Stay tuned for more on this unfolding drama!
Ian lucky tucker he's the man to get on here,liam galvin has just hard a little 2 part chat with him have a look Terry, you know him I think so he shouldn't be hard to get
Thanks Dodger will reach out to him!
