    Hate cocaine. I’ve never understood why so many people take that shit…. Everyone I’ve ever known has changed for the worse on it.

    I wanted to come on my phone from watching on tv and say thank you John u have turned your negative’s into positives and no doubt helped a lot of youth today.Let’s face it there’s not much for them to do so?Anyway as a man who struggle’s with addiction I just wish the schools would show what drugs do to people or at some young age we are shown.Thanks Billy for these podcasts aswell 👍🏼

    Its great what you are doing with boxing, the podcast. Keep clean is 100% right. Dont even try a spliff, line or pill and avoid drink. Its something very dangerous and often people can fall into it when dealing with trauma, break ups or often hide behind it. Even doctors prescriptions can be habit forming and tranquillisers like valium are very dangerous and murder to quit and there are cases where people have had seizures and epileptic fits when theyve had bad withdrawals. Mothers little helper? No mothers hell.
