I FOUND PART 2 AND THORT IT WAS BRILLIENT LISTENED TO IT A5 WORK ON BUILDING SITE WITH HEAD PHONES BRILLIENT GENUINE GUY GREAT TALKER INTERESTING IV LISTENED TO 100S OF THESE GUYS AND MARCUS IS THE REAL DEAL IM SURE U COULD DO A PART 3 MADE MY DAY 'GO QUICKER THANK YOU
3000 fights!,what a ridiculous statement to make!😅
Rare example of someone whos not arrogant just because they have power , not afraid to show his kindness ....but definitely dont take it for weakness. What a legend ...loved listening to every word.
Marcus, you come across as the epitome of a hard man with a sense of right and wrong, how I wish there were more guys like you to impart that knowledge and being to the youngsters of today, good luck mate.
Well said 100%morals ,rules ,obedience, controlled aggression
Top geezer no ego at all
Great comment and totally agree with you.
I met Marcus out in Thailand about 12 years ago .
And I can honestly say what a genuinely nice guy really nice guy
Worked for him in East Sussex
I did 25 years in security in nightclubs on the door and inside, down in Tasmania/Australia. I have watch alot of doco's on people doing security work, but this is the best one I have ever seen. I have seen and been thru a fair bit myself but nothing like Marcus. And what a bloody awesome bloke and very humble.
ah yeah 🐨
I love Tasmania. Good man keeping people safe in the clubs
That woulda been tough fighting people with 3 arms and 2 heads 😂
Imagine trying to diffuse a bloke fighting with his missus when it's his missus and his sister😂
Best podcast I’ve seen for a long time,
BRING HIM BACK ☝️☝️☝️
Part 2 is on its way Kev 💎
Kevin I have to completely agree with you. I think there needs to be a part 2, but not sure what they would talk about as everything was covered
Marcus seems so genuine, humble and has a lot of wisdom. Nice bloke
Wow what a life! I could listen to his stories for days! I'm glad he has a good head on his shoulders and has stayed on a good path. Such a funny and genuine guy.
Worked in margate clubs 5 years ago, met marcus 1 time as he does the doors around the thanet area, very respectful and well mannerd, happy to help the bar staff out with any issues. Not a bully at all like people saying, my dad worked for him back in late 90s in the medway area as a doormen for club zone and a couple others, top geezer
No nonsense just straight up honesty.. nothing to prove, lived it, survived it, sharing wisdom.. Good work the pair of you🙏🏽
Great interview Dodge,one thing I realized is how many ex gangsters/criminals have matured and changed their lives,surely proof of the ability for (some)criminals to reform,a really positive aspect of your interviews 🙏👍
Thanks 🙏
Changed there lives as it's easier to blow Ur own trumpet bullshitting about the life of crime and get paid.dont full for the matured changed life 😅
From working the doors for 16 years/close protection and being an SIA trainer for 6 years and seeing loads of doorman documentaries, this is a solid representation of a doormans life.
However very few of us would have gone through the same amount of events as marcus. Some of the bouncers I know haven’t punched anyone in the face during a 29 year’s career
@ultratunisiafallegua4917 I only did it about 4 years part time, I didn't punch anyone but I restrained & ejected a few. I found if you're decent with people they will usually be decent back but you have to be alert & you have to have a good team with you.
@@ultratunisiafallegua4917 same no one swung at me during my career. Your right as well people will respect you if your firm but fair
Especially all the drugs, booze and birds/boys you done.
That’s because marcos was the boss. When I set up in 1990 the real trouble comes and it’s not confined to the club. It’s 24/7 fronting up. It could be my life he’s talking about@@ultratunisiafallegua4917
I listen to podcasts all day every day and I could listen to that man talk all day every day. Genuinely nice guy no hype no bulls#it tells a good story. And well done dodge for asking the right questions and letting the man speak 👏
Dodge your recent video interview with Marcus, delivered a wave of nostalgia, invoking fond memories of the old days,
Marcus, an old school bouncer, is known for his gentlemanly demeanour and professionalism and his don’t mess attitude. Having worked with him on the doors during the late 80's and into the 90's, I can testify to his exceptional character and strong work ethic.
Marcus mentioned in your interview that he took up Aikido, and I had the privilege of being the Aikido instructor during that time.
Those were truly good times, filled with camaraderie and memorable experiences. Marcus surrounded himself with a group of outstanding Guys, and we were a tight-knit team.
Aikido aligned perfectly with Marcus's values and his approach to handling challenging situations on the job. He incorporated the principles of Aikido into his work as a Head Doorman, utilising techniques that prioritised de-escalation and diffusing conflicts without unnecessary force.
As I reflect on those years, I can say with confidence that Marcus was an exceptional doorman to work with. I have fond memories of that time, and I genuinely wish Marcus all the best in his future endeavours. His impact on the team and the industry is not easily forgotten. I told myself I would not write war and peace but there is so many good things to say about Marcus, All the best Big Guy
Lovely message and I’ll pass it on to Marcus for you!
Good man 👍🏼👍🏼
I grew up in Margate and used see Marcus every weekend working the doors at Buzz and Escape. I genuinely nice guy. I remember once feeling a bit ill for a couple of pills and he looked after me. Most security would have chucked me out but he made sure I was ok and let me go back in.
That's how you know he talks crap margate is lovely nothing bad there 😂
Genuine guy know him 35 plus yrs. No bs from him at all.
@@Simmy_NGmust be living in a fantasy world
What a genuinely nice guy Marcus is! It's great to know that beneath the exterior appearance there's humanity and decency. I hope there's a follow up interview!!
"beneath the exterior appearance"? What do you mean?
@@user-mz6rr7qk9p Motherfucker's a literal Hulk. That's what he means.
Best thing I’ve seen on here for years. Been in the pub trade for 35 years and can relate to a lot of this. Love how he came across
Absolutely loved this Dodge, you're amazing at this with your guests. Marcus is brilliant and I wish this didn't have to end. Would love to see him on again with more stories.
Cheers Kerri and thanks for the feedback. Part 2 on its way 💎
What a great podcast . Very humble and not an ounce of flash in the way he comes across. One of the best podcasts I’ve seen anywhere . Top job .
Thanks PMC 👍🏼👍🏼
Mate your podcasts are just quality . You let them tell their story and every podcast so far has been class . Long may it continue . Pete from Hackney 👍👍
Top marks on this one Dodge! Very intelligent and erudite man.. crazy story and really well told, great stuff Marcus! i'll be here for part 2.. 👍🏻✌🏻
Loved this one Dodge. You really do get the conversation to flow. Likeability shines through.
Absolutely incredible interview, first time watching Dodge and he has asked some really good questions, questions that most people want to know but questions that most interviewers won’t ask, I’d never heard of Marcus before until watching this but what an absolute old school gentleman with a lot of wisdom and knowledge, having worked on doors myself many years ago I can relate and I’m now a fan and have to research more on this legend
Brilliant podcast, comes across as a really decent guy. Ive been to a good few weekenders and the door staff have been as he described, proper sound, it makes the crowd police them selfs.
Lookimg forward to part two.
What a great humorous storyteller, as well as very articulate. Marcus seems like a decent moral guy unless you piss him off! !! Thanks for the video guys.
What an absolute incredible human being! Marcus is an inspiration of what it means to be a real man....Brilliant
Great podcast one of the best I've ever listened to and I can relate to some of the stuff Marcus has been through as being an ex doorman from Devon .
What a cracking podcast! Marcus seems like really genuine bloke. Great job Dodge.
Great interview, great work as per, i think this is the way forward with interviewing people via this type of platform putting the major TV companies to shame. Talk Sport, ESPN etc and your good self are changing the way interviewing is done. :)
Mate this is the best podcast yet! this guy is the real deal, and not one of his stories did he gloat or
Or act the Hardman super humble and the stories were believable like I was there we need a part 2 too many guys doing the UK podcast circuit mate keep bringing guys like Marcus.
This was amazing! Great guest he's definitely the salt of the earth. Brilliant stories really enjoyed this. All the best to Marcus from Margate 👍🏻
No idea why this podcast ended up on my recommended but glad it did. What a bloke.
Great viewing, went to school with marcus, was a biker with him, you should have a part 2 talking about his biker days.. well done 😊😊
Great interview Marcus, you made our party days fun and safe 🙏🏼 Thorleys, Franks, Ace of Clubs - Happy days 😍
Outstanding video with Marcus definitely needs to be a part 2 it's enthralling
What a fantastic & funny vlog.Marcus you are a legend & I can't wait for part 2✊️
I've met Marcus in Pattaya. He's an absolute gentleman.
Marcus great guy - I met him many times when I was body guarding music bands and Marcus always looked after us. Well done.
Another great interview Dodge you let the guests speak and the ask well thought out questions 👍
Love these podcasts. Look forward to part 2.
Dodge. Really loving these. Great interview style! This was one of the best. Definitely love to see a part 2. What a diamond gent Marcus is 👍👌
Glad you are enjoying my style Lee and yeah Marcus is a 💎
What a brilliant podcast . Marcus comes across as a very humble down to earth man , with a very interesting life story. Love how the interview flowed effortlessly. Well done.
Good man Danny 🙏
Another good one :) definitely gonna watch part 2. You always remember a good doorman :) BIG UP Dave an Pat our local doorman, who looked after us back in the day.
ANOTHER great, fascinating and insightful interview. Love it. What a great bloke. Fascinating, and I cant wait for the second part.
Well spoken genuine guy who does not try to look hard.....he is just a proper hard man.
60? Wow! What a proper geezer and still looks like he could fight 10 guys at once
Loving this one! Great character. Quality content as usual Dodge. Thank you.
Nice one David and yeah Marcus is a proper character!
Glad you enjoyed 👍🏼👍🏼
Another brilliant interview, Dodge, just getting better and better 👍👍👍
This guy reminds me of my friend who passed away last year. Same build, tattoos, voice, everything and has the same name! Crazy!! R.I.P Mark!!
Some wonderful memories, Marcus really is a genuine kind man that does so much for Charity as well, he is also well respected.
Good to listen to your tales of life on the door, very interesting, and you are definitely the most articulate doorman I've heard 😉
As a doorman I have always felt inadequate because of my job and I’ve always tried to hide what I do for living because people and especially women would judge you. After watching this legend I had such a sense of relief and I felt like the 9 years of avoidance and inadequacy turned into 9 years of pride and happiness. Although my career as a bouncer hasn’t been as eventful as Marc’s no where near, but I can definitely relate to a lot of what he experienced.Thank you gents I enjoyed every second of this podcast
What a great guy, we used to call them 'Salt of the Earth' but just a genuine good guy who you would want on your team. These people have so many interesting stories to tell - thanks Dodge.
Loved this one. And what a sound guy, very mindful of doing the doors right over the decades that’s so important
Wicked pod-cast and so pleased to hear there “Might” be a part two….keep them coming Dodge!! Xbig loveX
Will do mate 👍🏼👍🏼
Another great interview, looking forward to a part 2.
What a brilliant interview. As an ex doorman I really loved this . 100% genuine guy . Great stories . I'll share this with my door mates . Great channel . 😊😊😊😊😊
Good man Martin 👍🏼👍🏼
Keep up the amazing work Dodge 👌 brilliant podcast Marcus seems like a sound guy, defo not to be messed with 🤢 perfect story to ease my night shift, keep them coming m8 💪🏴🇬🇧
Good man Ross 🙏
Dodge has great guests on. Also, such a top interviewer.
Kind words Leo 🙏
Really great Dodge and Marcus.proper enjoyed that lads.👏👏
@@DodgeWoodallold school doorman, people respected and feared old school doorman as they knew they look after you yet you play up they nice first give you chance realise what you doing ,but then night night , or in man I knew the welsh legend and in his prime was hardest man in wales malcolm price would do he ask have word in toilet put fear of death in you but if you get Dutch courage he ask you again for quiet word but if u ignore him then he come across bang and not just put you away he loses his temper puts all your mates or people in few yards u lol
What a nice man good interview , well done no interruptions.
A lot of TV commentators could learn from Dodge. He listens and is genuinely interested in what his guests have to say. Dodge gently prods the interview along without being intrusive. Marcus seems like a real gentleman. Well done to you both. Best. Jim
Jim - What a lovely compliment and hope you are enjoying the podcast.
Good man🙏
@@DodgeWoodall loving every one of them Dodge. Well done.
Another great podcast, look forward to the next one.
A nice humble guy Marcus and the best interview i've seen to date, thanks.
Brilliant podcast 👏 can't wait for part 2
What a wicked interview. I remember training at Marcus's gym back in the late 80's. Top bloke.
Great interview. I grew up in the 80's out in the club's. Worked a door or two. I do miss the old day's. Really good interview Marcus, top man
Marcus is the best guest you've had on so far imo Dodge. Comes across as a top bloke with a great sense of humour. You can just tell there's no BS with the things he says. Glad to hear there might be a part 2. Well done both of you 👏
Yeah he’s a cracker and a proper character! Part 2 on its way John 👍🏼👍🏼
My old boss here.. Marcus is an old family friend from those circles and he’s a great character
This guy is on a level, doesn't glamourise anything. Very good listen.
Brilliant pod!! Definitely got to do part 2👍
Part 2 is on its way 😉
Always look out for your podcasts some of the best out there
I loved this podcast, this was like sitting with my dad ( who sadly died last year) listening to his doorman stories. Like Marcus he worked in the 80s,90, but also in the late 70s. I would love for a part two. My dad always said watch out for the older doorman and the nice ones' because they can handle themselves as they have nothing to prove.
Sorry for Your loss!
Your Dad was spot on!
Hope You are ok now.
I know Marcus for many years,and He is the best friend one could have.
Imagine how rare it is , to stop trouble en still be kind to the troublemaker!
He is besides supersmart,superkind.
Ehn tough as nails as well ha ha.
He does a lot of charity, helping friends ,the Man is a special one.
This is the first podcast I've watched from start to finish. What a fantastic interview. what a fantastic guest and what a fantastic interviewer who just let his guest speak.
What a lovely bloke Marcus seems, what a top man.
Appreciate the feedback Billy and great that you enjoyed this one 👍🏼👍🏼
Great interview.
Nice to see you Marcus, even though it’s not in person.
I remember Ken. I attended a couple of his courses, that you organised for the door staff in Eastbourne
Great memories.
Regards, Joe.
Absolutely brilliant! What a guy.... so much respect 🙏 clearly very dangerous man but so kind n thoughtful about the job he was doing. Few and far between I think. One in a million 👍
What a thoughtful bloke. Really enjoyed his company.
Hi Dodge, brilliant staff thank you.
Another fantastic interview 👌
Great podcas, best guest you've had on, he comes across as the real deal.
There are many on these podcasts who talk the talk but they physically aint up to it and their bragging shines through as fake.
I'm a bald headed 50 year old lump that still works out regularly so it's great to see someone 10 years older in good shape and looking sharp, lets me know I've at least another decade of dragging iron around.
He really did hold it down, imagine seeing that woman all these years later and she appreciates it and hugs yah, makes life worth living.
I love how humble he is. Accepts that he wasn’t good at some of it until he got experience. Also loving that watch!
Great interview Dodge , I could listen to Marcus for another few hours. Top bloke , get him back for a 2nd part.
Brilliant. There has to be a part 2. So entertaining and honest.
I'm glad you interviewed him, thank you for this one!
Hearing about buying property outside the uk was a nice change.
My pleasure mate 😊
Great conversation - Marcus you are an inspirational guy who has led a very colourful life but held the highest standards for yourself and those you employ. I salute you brother . Looking forward to to part2.. Btw I met you in 1988 in a club in Dover👍
Love your work Dodge, glad I found your podcast mate I'm a Joe Rogan man but being from the UK I can't help but keep coming back to your videos. You seem like a fair guy keep up the good work brother!
Great to hear Nathan and lots more to come 👍🏼👍🏼
That's the best podcast I've seen in yrs.. Absolutely flew by loved it. Dodge you asked the questions and just let big guy spk amazing 👌
Glad you enjoyed it Chris 😊
Dodge's "less is more" style letting the guest tell their story, is what makes a great interviewer.
Definitely tune in for a part two 😎
Great interview and Marcus you seem like a really sound guy. Well done to both of you 👍
Really enjoyed this what a nice guy. Great podcast 👍
Just subbed.What an amazing interview and what an amazing man Marcus is! Loved it
Welcome on board Lemmy 🤩
Really enjoyed this interveiw❤Marcus seems a good guy and very intelligent humble man
Great podcast 💯, really enjoyed it, brought back some club/pub memories. As being a Gravesend, Kent lad we had a bad reputation going into clubs etc, especially around Maidstone-Strawberry Moons, Gillingham - Amadeus, Dartford areas, we had to say we was from a little quaint village named Cobham, the posh part of Gravesend lol.
Hope to catch up with you one day Marcus, as also living in Indonesia, but float to Thailand regularly for a good time. All the best, its nice to be nice x
This is the best thing I've seen on the Tube for a long time, many thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏼👍🏼
Never knew this guy, but liked his story. And always like when these guys give back. All about legacy. Another good podcast Dodge lad.
Cheers fella 😊
Another fascinating episode and we notice you as much as your guests dodge because of your professional interviewing style letting guests tell their stories. Love all your episodes and keep them coming.

Met Marcus in Thailand a few years back, really nice decent bloke.
