Good old Enmore Boys High Legend and the best night clubs manager John in Australia 🇦🇺 both from the streets to the top of the pile through hard work and total dedication and loyalty great interview and no BS
That. Was. Awesome! I finished John's book about a week ago and I only came across this podcast today so you can imagine my excitement when it popped up on my screen.

@Boost , you sound like a real legend ....sitting behind a keyboard...knocking people's comments ...for the record...at 56 I'm retired and living the dream ...
I read King of the X expecting to judge Ibrahim, but I get the fascination the papers have now. There's something about the bloke, you can't help but like him lol. His stories are great. The Adidas tracksuits in Vegas fkn cracked me up lol

Something like this would have been great on the ABCs Australian Story on a Monday night, except for the wowsers who'd be complaining. The Cross was an historical piece of history and now it's over.
Johns humility is next level 🙏
I just read johns book! Unbelievable sounds like a stand up loyal bloke
Really enjoyed that.Only read about John in the papers and saw him on TV which all made him look bad.But he seems a cheeky but intelligent and focused business person.

watch underbelly season 3 on youtube! ideally watch the other seasons first but he is season 3 and each season story is different. just some gangster name cross over and feds ect
John Ibrahim you are a funny guy would like to have a beer with one day
The conversation builds and gets into a funny open conversation with selected stories that could be a movie in itself ,really enjoyed it
Chur to the bros for the podcast and chur to jeff (a legend), 😊 gotta go get back to work, ghosting time has run out🙌 laters🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
I read his book. Good read. I thought he saw I show pony but a bit of a hard fucka but most importantly SMART. Good on him and good luck
John = Hard working man...Very well liked...
Fascinating life story. Fascinating guy.
Couple of staunch blokes. Don't know who the other 2 are. Good interview guy's.
When Ibrahim grew up there was kickboxing just noMMA or legal cage fighting
I read his book years ago. From memory, it was interesting and quite authentic but I wondered if some of it was frabricated.
Great show I'm not 1 for podcasts but enjoyed
Absolute gentleman John is
Well done lads ! This podcast is amongst the easiest and most enjoyable on you tube .
Excellent really enjoyed listening to the podcast. Thanks
Gosh they picked perfect actor for King of the Cross looks a lot like john( Casey from home and away)
Big boys talk. Great stuff.
Jeff u r Australian icon,
I worked in Blake's pharmacy at the front the king's Cross police station site on Darlinghurst road / Maclay street around 02- to 2014 , I was the night shift shop bitch & some times the Love Machine pill chick😁 ..I helped Tania , Sam , Animal and all the beautiful disheveled people of the Neon cathedral of nightlife. I partied with them to , the tunnel was top stuff.empire , Bourbon , peppermint rhino , Ruby's , the fish bowl , Bada Bing was destined to be a pinnacle of excess .. nobody could tell anyone about being to extra , that didn't exist then , people have to earn maturity through trial and error & custodial sentence, bankruptcy and sometimes death. People do not seek out a resurrection of anything in the cross - the good things don't actually die , they bolt on and lay down a patina that still gets hit & chimes out out essence of sins - That time we shared in king's Cross , before the lock out laws & one punch deaths , is time that stays in our shared memory like it is the unattainable dream the unanointed to the old cross can't design in their minds anything like we used to see...it is a memory that can't be retrieve , it stays when you wake up from it , if you were privileged enough to have been in that scene - it's it's own magic of aspirations of socialising that podcasts like this revive our experiences and feelings of the glittering mile so many people have their respective reminiscent memories of ... These are bits of history we all get value out of.. Thank you for this .

Chuuur john, i also only knew you through the media rubbish that has floated around the web, although the statements and shit have been pretty captivating, im mature enough to keep an open mind, so yeah just a thankyou for your appearance bro, and you appear to be a ambitious human with a big heart and focused on succeeding, something we all should be atleast thinking about, kool az bro and goodluck for the future✌
Good on you guys👍 very enjoyable to watch and listen to ✌️ from Art by Gonzo
John was very lucky he knew george freeman and lenny they taught him how to make money and back winners

John you need to give your brother Sammy more cash. He made you rich. He is stuck in your homeland, Lebanon. You rode his coattails for a long time, and now it is time to pay the piper.
I was playing cards at crown, Jeff was there same table, some random Leb guy got bad beat by Jeff, the leb stood up and went off his head said he would smash Jeff/ lol obviously not knowing who he was Jeff calmly called security over and they took the guy away, it was his lucky day Jeff would of fucked his life
