Amen And never give up 💯
We need an INKY in every local community. This is life changing inspiration. Love him! Thank you CAM for this one.
I listened to every Funky Friday! Inky Johnson is the first to touch me inside when he thank Cam Newton for all the things he’s done. We as fans need to thank Cam just like Inky did today. Many come in attacking, and overlooking the good part. Cam is human, too. I’ve given suggestions to Cam, too, when I disagreed , but I never try to debase him as a man. Cam is 1 of the greatest Quarterbacks God has given us, & others. We can disagree but not dehumanize or debase. Before trying to end a person’s career, view the entire context he got put in since 2020! So, I thank Inky for his encouraging Life story, and his encouragement to Cam Newton! Inky Johnson, keep being GREAT to others, too! 💕❤️💕🙏🤟🏼

I needed this interview. Thank you all 🙏🏾
Always enjoy hearing Ink speak. Another great episode. Keep’em coming Cam!
I really loved this show much respect to you and Mr Johnson.🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
recently found out about cam newton through pivot. Been bingeing his stuff. Solid dude
I liked how Inky said I HAD TO LEARN ANOTHER WAY... Muscle makes it easy. When you winning, you cant be told nothing. But when you have to SUSTAIN an injury like INKY's you gotta become a neucleus... You gotta almost prof xavier your environment.
Powerful, Impactful, Uplifting and definitely God-Ordained. Thank you Cam for this podcast. I always say, you are here for more than football. Keep doing what you’re doing…making an impact. Blessings always to you and Inky. Love you!
This conversation made my day!
This was an AWESOME communing of the minds. Two powerful black men chopping it up in discussion of the minds. Great interview Cam. Bring the brother back later.
The power of I AM! Being intentional in all that you do will serve a higher purpose!
Inky is a blessed, intelligent, well spoken man.
This dialogue was everything!!!! I loved the fact that this man of valour, Mr. Johnson was able to see God's hand on his life in the midst of the adversity he was faced with. And even more, I love the way his beautiful wife not only held him down in the midst of this, but she saw her husband's value beyond a paycheck. She chose to encourage him in his value as he entered into a new gift and into some beautiful undiscovered territory of his journey. This young man has a beautiful testimony and I was deeply moved by this entire dialogue. Shalom
This is a touching conversation glad he didn’t give up on himself the obstacle and adversity he faced going forward and is moving in a positive direction have to give big props to the young brotha much success going forward,God bless!!!
I heard him speak in Nashville over 10 years ago very powerful story
Rocking with Cam. My man got the sweater vest tucked in!! He cold. As a black man with Sickle Cell in America i live with adversity too dawg. Inky resonated with me on that level. Service is huge to feel better about yourself! Great show

You gotta watch his Pivot episode. Very powerful.
Inky, a true VFL a legend up there with Manning, Pat, and Fulmer
Very profound message some get it right away, some it may take a hurdle in your life to get it, understand to receive the essence of life to attain a footprint that will leave an impact on others even after your gone. The gift of life was given to you from birth and how you appreciated it by sharing and impacting others. Some may go their entire lives and not understand, listen or receive their life's purpose. They will forever be on the inside looking out, instead of on the outside looking in. I respect and appreciate the man that you are, your platform and shedding light.
Powerful conversation ‼️ ♥️⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was a great interview 👏🏾
I love this interview! So impactful to me for my personal life and my son's life. Thank you.
Loving the outfit,soooo handsome!!!💘 LOVE 💘
Best episode ever!!! so inspirational!!
Beautiful conversation!
His message is very powerful.
This man’s story changed my life
THAT WAS AMAZING I WATCH THESE EVERY WEEK BOOGIE IS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER
You needed that bro!
Thank you so much my lovely brothers.... Inspiring conversation ♥️ The more you learn to understand the More you grow to inspire ✨
This was an interesting conversation. Much respect for your time, Johnson.
Ink is solid. Love these 2 sec legends
Effective Impact yes Mr Johnson
Wow this in an amazing testimony!
Cam, your show is REALLY good, keep grindin Beloved and I'll be watching!! Inky, Inky, Inky!! Brother, your message is ON POINT!! Keep laboring in the Lord, God's son, knowing that your effort is creating ETERNITY, love you men, keep doing what you're doing, in the Lord!!💖💖💖💖
Thank you for sharing your Life!
Awesome Show !!! Thanks cam …
Really legitimate helped me deal with my current transition from my back & knee surgery Thanks for the inspiration
Damn never seen a cam episode. And this made me realize the full circle. Cam was that guy at auburn and “NUMERO ONE” like inky said. People really do forget. Like he’s real, even with his flex. He’s totally right, he’s giving a service to all these young cats. Those young cats haven’t accomplished anything compared to CAM! It’s about respect and understanding to work before all the talk
Whats the instrumental that plays at the beginning of every episode, incredible production.
One of my favorite people ever such a warrior
My first epidsode but I’ll def be back for more cam #greatness and it’s dope how inky gave cam his flowers ina middle 🔥🔥🔥I feel as if we should all focus on giving flowers while ppl are alive instead of holding them to this certain standard cuz they aren’t doing the same thing we are used to them doing
Inky bringing crucial messages on professionalism and adapting to your audience
TD sent me! Also love Inky, came and spoke at my high school years ago
I feel like Cam still want to play football I know deep down in his heart it still hurts he not the field. But god does things for a reason. #CP4L #QB1
i remember inky i was a freshman at riverdale tennesse had inky n eric berry woulda been crazy but im glad he foiund a way hes inspirational frfr love frm zone 4 sw u digg
💖CAM #1 BOOGIE NEWTON
I love how cam allows his guest to actually speak
Tremendous Man!
The transition or the pivot out of what you’ve known or believed was for you into who you really are to this world is a terrify and liberating cliff to stand at.
It will be nice if he makes a biopic!!

Was DEEP then Cam lightened it up when he start talking about the kids not appreciating his money,that due to his status Cam Newton doesn't have to be there,that he flies private just like lil baby and future 🤷🏾♂️
