@@nicol.7738 Sometimes kids exaggerate, sometimes they make things sound more innocent than they are. That reminds me of how I thought it was normal for 6th graders to nearly beat each other to death. They tried to see who could injure each other the most and they often came back with blood covering all their clothes, massive bruising, lacerations, chunks of skin missing on their face, pieces of wood stuck halfway thru their feet. One time an ambulance came and 2 kids were never seen again. I thought it was funny and cool as a kid but now I see that totally differently

I think Greg has the best memory of stuff that happened during his time on Kid Nation, he recalled quite a bit of details, probably because he was older. Great interview! Honest guy. Didnt like his immaturity on the show but glad to see him having evolved past that.

imagine having 39 other kids and ur the alpha, he was an older brother to many kids here, he wasnt immature on the show thats just how the editing ect make it look like.
Honestly, I see Greg’s point with him being seen as the “tough guy”. I can’t imagine being 15, being in high school having people in upper elementary/middle school telling him what to do. Great work as always!
You can say a lot of things about Greg, but you can't call him fake. This guy knows what he thinks and how he feels and stands by that.

I was kind of hoping to see him more apologetic for being such a bully and scaring the little kids and such. He still comes across as a bit of a dick but at least he's honest and you can tell he's matured in a lot of ways. He seems way more empathetic than he was back then. Reminds me of a lot of the kids who I knew as bullies in high school and have had kids. It really softens a person and changes their perspective.

The kid nation fandom is gonna freak out
I love that greg’s experiences in kid nation can relate to the life that he lives now. Like the stuff with the arcade relating to his social media use or how some of the things he did as a leader can relate to how he raises his kids. I love that he’s very cheeky about everything and is so down to earth about the show. I think that experiencing a thing like kid nation could be the most fun and most interesting experience for a kid. I think something consistent with all these interviews is that there are certain parts of the experience that stick with them even to their lives now. Can’t wait to see more great interviews!

Thanks for doing these interviews. I'm glad to see Greg is doing quite well. What makes this show great, is that these people really haven't changed that much as adults vs. kids. He's still the same guy.

Dude. This interview was so awesome, and you brought so much excitement to the interview, again such a big change from Laurel's interview. He was really engaged in the interview and remembered a whole lot of exclusives. We can see a different side of him that the show didn't portray. I believe he knew that it was reality tv to do things really spice things up and I understand it now, even though I wouldn't actually apporach it that way. I think next for sequencing purposes, just my opinion you need to interview Sophia and Pharoh next. Because a lot of people thought he should have gotten a gold star, he should have his say . I was gonna give you Sophia's youtube channel but I think she deleted it.

Thanks for another great interview, Eric! I had a feeling Greg wouldn't be the same now as he was 13 years ago. I appreciate how he owned up to some of the bad things he did in the past. However, some qualities about him have definitely stuck like his outspokenness, humor, competitiveness. What I wonder, however, is if he would have agreed with DK when looking back on the "compliments" that he gave the town were actually catcalls. I also wonder if he would have expressed regret or would have apologized for that moment. All of that aside, I can tell that he's definitely matured and is doing well for himself. Then again, I guess it is easy for someone like me who is a viewer to judge Greg based on his actions on the show. I'll agree with someone who said earlier in the comments that in hearing from each person's point of view through these interviews, I have begun to realize that there aren't any real villains on the show. They were all kids at the time, and they've all probably done something in the past that they regret as have I or anyone else. So even though I don't know you personally, sorry, Greg, for thinking you were a bad guy. Well, that's my KZread rant/paragraph for the day. Thanks, Eric.
