Glenn Tamplin tells his story.
The Essex millionaire, who made his fortune in steel, wants to use his remarkable life story to help everyone, from the homeless to drug addicts and former Premier League youngsters, whatever their ambitions may be.
Tamplin is driven by an extraordinary experience he had three years ago, when he says he met God. His life had been hit hard by cocaine addiction and depression and he was pronounced dead following an overdose, which led to an out-of-body experience that shaped his purpose.

I've been on coke on off for 13 years but decided the start of this year to kick it for good. That's nearly 6 weeks off it and in that time I've managed to get an offer for Uni and I picked the keys up for my own pad yesterday so I can move out of my dads.
Well done Craig keep going brother 💪🙏💥
Update ??
Good fella. Yep all that shite dose u no good at all, plus its expensive as fuck it would make u go broke real quick.
Who wants a line ? 😉
@@HH-dv9zi he's back sniffing
"I never wanted to die, but I didn't know how to live"...wow, I feel that man.
❤️❤️
Ye 💯
Going through a hard time the now with my addiction so needed to hear this to keep me going. 17 days clean now off the drink but better than 0. Keep going. Never give up.
Keep going brother
@@JamesEnglish cheers man. Am only 24. Got a long life to live yet.
All the best kris👍
@@davidtaylor3318 thanks david make that 19 days now. :D
@@krisfindlay6388 Superb. I'm proud of you bud even though I don't know you personally. Give us a wee update once a month and let us all know how you are doing mate👍
I didn't want to die but I didn't know how to live I've felt like that alot of times
brilliant
Deep 👍🏻❤️
Weak
Same
Same......about 6 years worth
'I didn't wanna die but I didn't know how to live'. Strong strong words. I'm sure alot of people have felt the same. I've been there too but thankfully my kids keep me happier than I ever knew was possible.
Cope
I was addicted to coke for 20 years I've been clean for 2 years nearly but the big thing I quickly realised is even though your not taking that drug anymore your still addicted to it and always will be for the rest of my life but saying no is all I have to do
How did you stop?
Yo! If you need a little advice get back to me....
You know, I've had an on/off relationship with Cocaine for 20 years now. I had a relapse past weekend after not doing any for best part of a year prior. I felt the most ashamed I have ever felt in my entire life. Now my serotonin levels are returning to normal, It's reenergised me to never touch it again. Never again do I want to feel that low. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to bounce back up & some people can only learn this way. I'm one of them.
1 of best interviews iv seen, any man who can turn his stars around in a legal way deserve everything they get. I can relate so much to you James.
Tyson 'Gypsy King' Fury you are an inspiration to us all big man. What you have done in and out the ring has inspired me and my sons.
It’s not actually him I don’t think mate
Im not sure u know... I think this could be Fury.. just his spelling and the way he said ‘turn his stars around’ I’ve literally only heard that phrase from one person and it was Tyson Fury... either this fucker is good at pretending or it’s actually Tyson and he’s bored out his mind in quarantine 😂
5taunch brown nose 👃 💩
@@gedb6099 that comment coming from someone with the name Barrow, "Barrow boy" Tyson Fury is an inspiration to a lot of people, not just because he's the heavyweight Champion of the world, its because he thought back from addiction and mental health problems.
What a guy related to every word of his addiction , genuine as fuck
I'm exactly the same after a line of coke. Completely bugged out and paranoid. So glad I stopped that shit.
Cocaine is such a nasty drug and the things they use to cut it is straight poison. I know people who used to use cocaine in the 80s and they said it was completely different. The high would last long, the come down wasn’t harsh at all just need a couple joints, it wouldn’t make your nose bleed because it melts right away. It changed because they started making cocaine to cook into crack not really to sniff. You can still find great cocaine but very rare and expensive, I heard Peruvian cocaine is the best now for sniffing.
15:00 massive respect to James for being so honest about his own insecurities and putting it out there! Such a good interview this
Terrific interview James. 24 yrs clean and sober and my sponsor was an old scottish lady tough as boot leather. Best advice she ever gave me was... You're Only As Sick As Your Secrets. That was next level wisdom. Brutal honesty makes us better people and the people around us better because of that.
Yes proud of you ❤️
Always be truthful brother, with yourself and everyone.
I watch all the interviews but must admit I found this one the most captivating... Underneath all those millions this is a man who in my opinion is incredibly humble, honest and down to earth.... Someone who has faced his demons head on and happily admits when he has fucked up and doesn’t try and shift the blame...
Massive respect for coming through the other side. Great interview.
The one main demon in a lot of these interviews is “cocaine”.
@Tainted Troll nah u need to understand the energy coke harvests from the people suffering in the jungles to make it to the cartel wars to export it to when it's on our streets how many lives have been ruined or lost for every gram sniffed.
@@leonpalmer2429 thanks for the comment. It's so true I've watched it and I've seen the damage on the street it does too.. And to my detriment I've used it a lot in the past and felt the damage. Again ty for the comment pure education there bro
will power
Thought this bloke was a bit of a dick , I was totally wrong! Honest and inspirational, two top guys much love
It’s a helluva drug, fucks up nuff people!
Holy shit! This 50 minutes has made me realise so much about what’s going wrong in my life and has been for years! Addiction is a scary place and it’s even scarier when you don’t even know your in that place to start with. Thanks lads 🙏🏼
U just took tge words out my mouth, I'm going through tge exact same thing
@@stevenbrookes3735 learn to spell
6 months clean tomorrow this time round. Not trying to do it on my own is the key for me. Great listen that was fair play. We do recover. Thanks lads.
Well done brother
Good strategy mate, Glad its working for u
Glenn is a cracking fella. Was fortunate enough to meet him at his house a few years back. A genuine good guy
makes me feel il. remembering coke benders where you nose is so painful, you desperate for sleep but have no chance and are so paranoid every noise in the house seems like someone breaking in. The worst for me was thinking family were going to drop in for a surprise visit and I would have to deal with them when I couldn't even speak. So glad I don't touch that shit any more. There is no glamour in this or any other drug. Great honest interview as usual.
Mate its disgusting we have all been there
Ditto.
LMAO real shit... coke psychosis.
Spot on. Can't believe what I've spunked over the years. And for what
The surprise family visit when you can’t even speak got me 😂
awful way to live .
What a legend! I hope that you change many lives 😊
The mutual engagement was brilliant. What a podcast.
Two genuine men making absolute sense . Well done lads Outstanding interview.
Thank you
I've seen many of your shows James and love your work. Got to say Glen's story resonated with me hugely, as many of us addicts often say. Long story short, after years of drink and drug abuse, a spell in jail for ABH and financial meltdown, I live a simple life as a trainee chef and try to be a humble father to my 5yr old boy. I don't have much, but my sanity is just about there, and we all have a chance to turn our lives around when we make the decision to change. Thanks again, means alot
Stick together, life's too short
Glad to hear your on the mend and living a happier life!!!! Enjoy it bro
@@afc4141 thanks Tom, every saint has a past, every sinner has a future, and we are products of the madness we created back then. We all have a chance to change, and make amends, one day at a time,
@steven Curtis it's such a hard road to get out of pal but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger respect brother glad your now doing well 🙌👍
@@jakehope6811 well said my friend. We are all finding our way, through good and bad times, we all need support, and we can help others where possible too. It's the gift of giving, addiction is such a selfish pursuit, and the consequences get bigger the deeper we go. There's always hope man, stay strong man
I hope Glenn Tamplin finds peace and happiness. 🙏🏻. He’s been through so much but is very honest about his problems, which is to his credit. Bless him 🦋
Enjoyed this Interview. An emotional man, honest & self reflective. Wish him the best.
This was heartbreaking.... coming from Amex heroin and crack addict for 6
Years . I’ve been clean since 2003 when I came out of wormwood scrubs ! When I was in feltham young offenders which is 15 mins away from my home.... I got everything I needed as in drugs ... screws back then in feltham didn’t give a fuck. Scrubs I had many opportunities to smoke brown (heroin) but st that point I stayed away from. I got clean from scrubs! B wing big up and be strong lads 🙏🏽🙏🏽💯💯💯💪🏽💪🏽
Been watching James for months now & the content is incredible, this has to be my fave. Lots of great messages in this podcast, you have men that are or have been the most violent of the violent but here we get their sensitivity and their wisdom. We get guests who have suffered horrendous abuse and losses but here they give us their passion and their direction.
I feel James should receive maximum credit for the way he guides first & then proceeds to fuel the guests, they always seem not just happy but encouraged to reveal this stuff. This podcast virtually never has a blandness to it where host or guest are struggling to get traction around the conversation, I will always support James English , this is almost my therapy.. Great work James much appreciated sir 👍❤️
These interviews are all so interesting! The chat just flows, James, your interviewing technique and brutal honesty is to be applauded! I thank the lord I have never tried drugs and I do not have an addictive personality because my life, given the people I ran with at the time, throughout the 90s could have took a whole different direction and I could have found myself at the end of one of James's microphones! Glenn is the perfect example of how important your mental health is, much more important than any amount of wealth! Hundreds of people will have looked at Glenn in the day with his cars, money and flash Harry attitude and thought 'I'd love to have his life' but now watching this wouldn't have wanted it for all the money in the world! Well done Glenn for turning a corner, yes you still struggle but you are a big hearted fantastic man, take pride in who you are buddy and stay strong! James, keep up the good work.
Fantastic again James.
I never heard of Glenn before, his story made the tears flow.
He seems like a really genuine guy.
💚
That was great.. what a brilliant share🥳 Totally identified. I’ve been clean 10 years & love being on this road less travelled. Helping others & sponsoring is when I too, am at my best. God is good🙏
So much respect James brother I've also been going through some dark times similar to yourself and I really appreciate what your doing helping others by shedding light on these subjects that other people just shrug off and pretends nae happening keep the good work going mate 🙌👍
What is great about James is he listens to his Guests and doesn’t interrupt, and he asks relevant questions. Great host 👍🏻
He’s got fantastic listening skills
Top man,your openness will help with others and it is honourable that you are giving back.RESPECT
Only just got around to this podcast. I am in recovery myself and have been clean for 5 years now. I always focus on now and try to live in today as you cant change the past but you can change now with also believing and working on the subconscious mind. Never been into books but am going to read the power of now. Thanks for the recommendation. Keep up the good work james 👏
Quality! I’ve not been an addict myself but I have put faces on from being young, a lot of things make sense from this, thank you both for sharing 👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely brilliant. So much truth and real emotion. Possibly one of the best “real” interviews I’ve ever seen.
Cheers Ben
Heart felt pod cast,you could see just how much you were both talking and helping each other out ,inspirational
Thanks brother
This is what we need brave people speaking out honest yes
First time I've ever watched any of James English interviews/episodes and I can honestly relate to a lot of what they are BOTH saying. Blokes speaking from the heart at whats really going on "behind the mask" is so refreshing to hear. Well done for keeping it real fella's, I really look forward to watching more of these....
Cheers brother and welcome
Wow what a story, one of the best podcasts I've ever seen, this man is an inspiration. God bless you James, Glen and every other addict.
That was a lovely interview the other day I see the title and thought here we go some flash prick but I was wrong, it was a fascinating watch and a lot of things I can empathise with in many aspects of his life.
I also realise the best way to grow is to be very critical of yourself and see how you can improve in all areas.
Good luck with helping people and continuing to battle your demons!
Wow im in recovery 12 years,these two spoke my story,how i feel, how i work,the best and most soul searching interview ive ever seen great help thank you 👍
Thank you James for some of these great interviews.
Helping people that don’t know they need it.
👍🏼
Amazing stuff, really comes from the heart you can tell. Massive credit to the both of you, you should be very proud. Keep going guys you're a fantastic example to others.
So many helpful interviews. Teaching me a lot.
Thanks James for such an AWESOME interview, could listen to Glenn all day. Good luck in your recovery. James, you are the best!
Thanks brother
great respect for the guy for being open and honest. Loving these interviews man keep up the good work James!
Cheers mate
Loved the honesty of both James and Glenn in this interview..Great to see James getting some identification as the interview goes on ..great listening 👌
Best RUclips interview I've watched in a long time. I loved the message that this gave. 2 honest and open guys. Respect
Cheers brother
this guy gets it speaking out about the things that hurt the most is half the battle
Inspirational, made me cry tears of joy to hear The Lord saved him!
This was the best interview I’ve listened to it hit me hard! I related to almost everything thing he said. Was like a free therapy session. Thank you for sharing your story
This guy is very connected to his feelings and not afraid to be vulnerable with his honesty. I believe this is how he stays clean
Thank you James and thank you Glenn, absolute Gents you both are.
I'm not rich nor am I a Brilliant interviewer but I see myself in both sometimes through the video. The dad thing haunts me long too! I'm really glad I watched this. So thank you boys! ... there is always hope, even when there is no reflection in the mirror! 👊👑
Incredibly powerful .. Thank you both so much.
his honesty and openness and how comfortable he was with doing it was something to be admired. nice guy I like him. youve got a great channel here!
James English, I love your honesty and relate 100% to what you’re saying about fear of relationships, addiction, recovery, fears etc. You’re on the money
Cheers mate
This stuff you and your guests are doing is really important.thanks James Glenn.
empty vessel yt 👍🏼
@@JamesEnglish amazing words by yourself to james. hit home when u mention be alone even when your sober. deleting certain ppl out of your life is hard but necessary. i had to leave my country to do this. mediatation is a great release and the power of now is a life changer.i did a silent retreat to a buddist monstry in thailand.help changed my life.keep up the good work
Great interview, well done Glenn for your honesty, much appreciated, great message. Thank you James, loved your input, I listened to every word, related to alot of what was said.
Thanks gaz
So inspiring . Thank you so much for the time you give. You’re doing amazing things for humanity now and the future🙏🏻
I like this guy,well done james for getting this done
Wow, I never knew Glenn Tamplin was such a purposeful human being! Praying for the best for him!
Love Glenn, such an inspiration to sufferers everywhere.
Honestly one of the best interviews to watch. You both speak words that ring so loud in my ears. I've not delt with addiction from a class A point but addiction in other areas and its comforting to hear stronger men then myself to talk about things and situtations i can relate so clearly with. Putting the mask on is something alot of men do and dont feel they are able to talk and be who they truly are. Glenn talking about his insecurities hit home hard. Both great and insperational men. Appreciate this interview alot. I personally would love to hear your story James (you may already have done this. New to the channel). It would give context to who you are and what youve been through. Every interview we watch, you drop hints of your past and id personally find it very interesting hearing the struggles you talk about. Great content and you have helped me understand what goes on in my head alot regards to addiction and coming from dark places and im sure others feel the same way. Thank you
Great show, thanks for giving Glenn some light, I love what he's doing and it's great he's got the chance to fulfill his purpose, good luck!
Yet again another classic ,love hearing these story's from all walks of life. Really enjoyed this one especially when he spoke about jesus . Keep up the good work lads .
This was the best interview “Great stuff”
Brilliant, so honest, drawn a lot of strength from Glenn. James great interview, very relaxed and helped by the connection.
WOW, What A Great Interview, I Always Drive Past Glens Gaff I Even Worked There Long Ago, But Mate What A Guy, Great Story And Well Done For Putting Yourself Out There And Helping Others, Well Done 👏👏
Loved this podcast, I related to Glenn's experiences in more than the one way, very inspirational, thanks to both for doing this!!
I've found these about a month ago and watched a few now. All intriguing viewing and this is by far the best yet to me. I think even those of us who don't deem we've got addiction problems as such, still find we are fighting our mind at times. Interesting as well that this is about the 5th time in 2-3 weeks I've seen the power of now recommended. I've tried listening to it on youtube but can't digest it but I'm sure it's a sign for me to read it. Good luck Glenn and thanks James. keep em coming
Thanks Martin
Very powerful interview and response. Respect to both.
Peace.
I don’t know this guy but I thought I’d give it a watch... I respect him. Good podcast.
Amazing stuff. Thank you James. Proud of both of you. Keep up the great work you truly are making a difference.
Thank you
Loved this. Hats off to both of these. Stuff like this is bound to help people. Well impressed. Thanks for this.
I'm a recovering drug addict and totally understand tthe connection between you guys....I wrk a soild program....12step.and whn anyone ask me" how long have you been clean"I always say "since I woke up this morning"i live in the day as my action tell my story today....awareness,integrity,honesty(with self)and giving bk to a society I did nothing but took frm and helpping other addict/ppl that want help is how life is for me today...so hearing you guys talk was fucking beautiful!!!!thank you so much for this video and I hope God might get us to cross paths one day as we can do so much for eachother(3 of us).....plus moving bk to Essex with in the nxt yr.....love you James boy!!!keep up what it is yr doing as it shines frm you...xxx big love xxx matt xxx

I just nearly came to tears when you said no ones coming to save you so true, takes a lot to dig deep and find yourself, god bless you James for what your doing keep it up👏👏👏👌

Me too relate fully man
Tog go bog e 🇮🇪🙏
Stay safe fam
Thank you Jesus for saving this man in the depths of his sin!!! Hallelujah! Hosanna in the highest ❤️
Jesus didn't save no one couldn't save himself.
@@balance3201 that was the point to save you not himself, he did not need to be saved but you did and he did just that so you can trun from your sins and be reunited back with your heavenly father.
I tell you to repent please, in fact I beg you out of love to please turn away from your sins and repent and to ask the lord your god for forgiveness before the coming judgement. heaven and hell are real places and the time you have here on this Earth is only just the vapour.
read my words and heed them very well. repent before it's too late, I did not write this entire paragraph for you out of coincidence but as a warning from the Lord out of love telling you to flee from your sins and repent because the place your going of pure pain and torment isn't going to allow you to do that, indeed it's going to make you regret not heeding this warning.
What a real beautiful story. To see how low you can be and get up from that is a miracle. Made me cry watching this
Really loving your podcasts. Amazing job! Thank you!
Cheers mate
