Your dad was 6 months younger than I am Brad. Your vlog has caused me to pick up the phone and call my 3 kids to tell them how proud I am of them. We live thousands of miles apart (they are in Australia, I’m in Thailand), but I will get off my butt go see them. Condolences on your loss and thanks for all your videos, especially this one

Wow.......

I'm sorry to see all this Brad. 33yo man just crying at work, that ending was so heartfelt. We can see the emotion in your eyes at the end. I think it is amazing to have a message like that from your dad. He seemed so supportive and enthusiastic of what you did. I know we're all just randoms on the internet, but I think most of us truly mean it when we say that we're all here supporting you. Thanks for all you do, and take the time you need to deal with this

Condolences Brad to you and your family from a long time subscriber. Listen to your Dad's advice and continue the vlog and remember the life lessons instilled in you by your parents. This is coming from a 64 year old man who lost his Father 11 years ago from complications from renal kidney failure/dialysis and currently losing his Mother to Alzheimer's. God bless.

I endorse this statement. Gg

That ending was one of the most touching things I’ve ever seen in any video. I can tell you and your dad had an amazing relationship, Brad. I’m sure he’s super proud of everything you’ve accomplished, and you continue to inspire both young and old intelligent, and creative minds to get out there and achieve whatever they set their mind to. You are an amazing inspiration, and it’s been phenomenal watching you grow from where you started. I wish the best for you, and I can’t wait to make it to one of the meet up games. I got teary eyed watching because I lost my dad when I was 5. I always wonder what he would’ve said about who I am today, and if he’d be proud or not. Poker isn’t something that everyone loves or agrees with (when it comes to being an integral part of your life). But it’s a passion like no other for some people, me being one of them. Parents can’t be replaced, but it’s awesome that you were able to build so many memories with him. I can’t wait to do that for my future son(s). Have a great one Brad, and keep on crushing the tables for your dad.

That voice-mail is such a beautiful reminder of how much you've achieved and how much support you have. We ❤️ you Brad!

One of the most touching videos ever. This one is going to be the biggest video on your channel for sure. The ending video with your dad was absolutely beautiful. His words were so touching! Your dad is absolutely going to watch over you every single step of the way! Play poker for your dad, because there is no doubt , every second you play, he will be smiling, through wins and losses, your dad will absolutely be watching you every single chip you win or lose. What a touching moment, and we truly send our condolences, and thank you for sharing Brad! Keep your head held high, and know, your guardian angel is watching you every step of the way! We love you!

sorry for your loss, looks like your father is the kind of dad and friend every one would love to have. 🙏

Your father’s words brought tears to my eyes. You are a lucky man to have been raised by such an uplifting and honorable father. Wishing you and your family peace during these times.

Brad, you truly are one of a kind. As a dad myself, I could feel the genuine pride in his voice. I’m so very very sorry for your loss. I hope you find the peace you deserve and continue to do what you love. Your videos bring laughter, learning and entertainment to so many of us. Thank you for doing what you do sir.

I’ve never felt compelled to comment on a video (and I watch them all) but the tribute to your dad at the end was amazing. He seemed like he was larger than life and I’m so happy you shared that with us. Rest In Peace Mr Owen.

Sorry for your loss Brad. Glad to hear the vlogs made your dad proud, and it’s giving you focus and keeping you strong. Take time to decompress then you’ll be back on the circuit stronger than ever! We’ll be ready and waiting to watch and support ❤️🔥

Nothing better than hearing words from your dad that I could feel how proud he was. Yep, 42 year old watching. Crying. I hope I can one day give my 4 year old a message later in life that was as heartfelt as your dad did for you. Much love, Brad Owen.

Thanks Brad for letting us into your personal life and sharing such amazing memories of you and your family. My sincere condolences to you and your loved ones. Those voice messages are priceless. Your fans are here to support you Brad; you are LOVED dearly.

That was such a great vlog, Brad, especially the tribute to your dad. You are so lucky to still have that message from him. My dad, also a Michael, passed away suddenly last year and that ending went straight through my heart. Keep up the great work!

Brad I'm truly sorry for your loss. Your dad sounded like a great guy, and he obviously loved you a lot. I'm glad he got so much joy from the vlog and you guys could share that together. My eyes are tearing up a little typing this out. Losing someone so close to you is something you'll never really get over, but the pain does recede with time. My dad passed away in the 2017 fires in Sonoma County, he was my best friend, I think about him all the time, as I'm sure you will with your dad. Hold on to all those good memories of him and use it as motivation to keep kicking ass in life. Another great video by the way, still the best channel on youtube. ❤

I love explaining the revenge range shirt and sending people to your channel. Much love and condolences to you and your family, I hope everyone settles back into their lives soon. Your dad is always with you!!!

Still have tears in my eyes from the last few minutes of this vlog. Your dad is a great man. Sending you and your family love and strength Brad.

I'm so sorry for your loss man, but your father was right don't ever stop these vlogs. You've definitely inspired me to get back into playing after a pretty long hiatus. That ending was heartbreaking but thank-you for sharing those memories with all of us and again my condolences to you and your family 🙏

Man, what a way to start the day. I don't know why the algorithm sent you my way years ago, but I was captivated by your videos and eventually found my way to a couple games, but I've never really been a poker player. I watch your vlog every time. Your father is 100% correct. You have created something so special and I feel like you've done a fantastic job. You can tell from the videos how proud he is of you and how much he loves you. You're a great poker player, but I think your dad would say you're an even better son. What a tear jerker of an ending, man. I'll come be a fish at a meetup game eventually.

Im sorry for your loss Brad. I lost my father tragically and it has been tough. I do my best to move forward and stay positive. I played poker with you once and you were everything i came to expect from your vlogs in a positive way. Your vlogs mean alot to poker and the people watching them. You lift alot of peoples spirits up watching these and assuredly do mine.

Eh..Heard that Brad's Dad was a Trump supporter, you really going to be sad over someone who supports an insurrectionist that tried to destroy Democracy?

So sorry to hear the news Brad, you can tell how special your parents are just from those little snippets. Your dad was proud of you.

I’m so sorry for your loss , what a lovely, moving tribute that you know he would have loved. Keep being awesome and take solace from the fact you clearly made your dad so proud.

Brad, that was an amazing video and a fitting tribute to your dad. He comes across as a genuinely brilliant guy and it must be heartening for you to know how proud he was of you. We've only interacted briefly but I can vouch for the fact that his faith wasn't misplaced at all, keep up the good work and congrats on all your success. My father is currently going through treatment for cancer, so this really hit home for me. I only hope that he's as proud of me as your dad was of you.

Brad the reason I watch you is because I connect with you. You are real. You are here for us. Make a tough day better just putting your videos on. Love getting your new video notification. You are genuine. Showing us the good, the bad, ups and down. You’re vulnerable and funny. Please never stop doing what you love and vloging it for us to share your experiences. We love you and appreciate it all. And I’m so sorry for your dad 😢

Holy moly Brad. Watched every minute of this. I’m a few years older than you and a dad of three small kids and the pride bursting from your dad with every word in that message and the smile on his face when he was around you in the video clips - wow. You made your dad proud every single second. He will be missed by all moving forward but he knew just how loved he really was. I hope your mom is doing okay and we will be praying for your family. I lost my dad in 2016 and I hope I made him as proud as you made your dad 🙂

I'm so sorry for you Brad, your Dad sounds like an absolutely amazing guy. This hit me hard man! Reminds me of my mum, I miss her so so much. Part of life is about learning to take the hits and keep getting back up. It's like a game of poker and no matter what happens, no matter how many beats you take, the ride is never over. Even if your dad has departed, he hasn't gone. He'll live on in your memories, and now in everyone else's too. Thanks for sharing some of the better moments you captured with him. Take care of yourself dude

I'm so sorry for your loss Brad. Your Dad sounds like a good guy and it sounds like he was really proud of you. I love his voicemail to you! Love the Vlog man!!!

Jesus. That was amazing. I called my dad straight after this. Thanks for reminding us all how precious it it to be able to do that. I’m sorry for your loss, your dad looked like a legend. Best wishes to you and your entire family x

Thank you endlessly for allowing us into your life and sharing not only your poker experiences, but your personal experiences with us. Your dad is right, we love you, we all have your back, and look forward to your next video every week. You figured out the KZread views thing solely by being yourself and publishing content that you enjoyed making. Looking forward to the future of your poker adventure and career.

Brad - so sorry for your loss - thanks for sharing, not a dry eye in the room here - so awesome your dad telling you to never stop your vlogs, we could feel his pride for his son - and god bless you and you family.

Brad, I'm so sorry about your dad. I lost my dad in September of last year. I was born in Vegas while my dad was stationed at Nellis Air Force base. He took me back to Vegas for my 21st birthday, even bought me my first lap dance at one of the clubs! My dad and I bonded over so many card games, collecting sports cards and even becoming soccer referees. I know it's an over used phrase but I know how you feel. The world can never replace our dads but the best thing we can do is honor their memories and become the best men we can be! Stay strong, you have a community that loves you and is here to support you!

I'm so sorry for your loss, Brad. Thank you for making and sharing such a touching tribute. You're deserving of all the good that comes your way. You bring others so much joy, and your father saw that in you. Don't ever stop.

Thanks a lot for the comment and the donation James. I put a lot into this video and especially the ending, I'm glad it's resonating with others. When you put yourself out there that much, you never really know what to expect but it's a very very cool thing for me to see all of the support. Thanks again.

That voice message of your dad is priceless. Had me crying out loud. My condolences and thank you for sharing all this in the vlog. The laughs and tears you share makes this the best pokervlog in the world.

You have videos and photos of your father and family together that will last your lifetime. You can always look back at those memories. Most ppl don’t have those kinds of videos, photos etc. I wish I had those kinds videos of my father before he past. My deepest condolences. This should teach ppl to capture the moments with their parents, kids, and family. Don’t blink, before you know it, everything is gone.

Damn bro got me right in the feels I felt so sad hearing your dad passed and hearing that voicemail made me cry like a baby I've watched every video on your channel I'm proud of you man keep kicking ass!

Takes me back to growing my channel with the support of my mom- like you, I was able to see success while she was still with me. Supportive parents are AMAZING. So glad you had time with your dad, and so thankful you made this video. Thank you, Brad- love from the Galafam.

Aw Brad. I'm so sorry to hear this. What a heart-felt tribute to your dad. He sounds like a great guy. Hang in there brother!

Brad- I watch all your videos and enjoy them so much. I remember a video a while back where your dad surprised you at the table right as you won a big pot and I could tell he was an absolutely amazing man just from how excited he was for you. You are so fortunate to have had a loving, supportive great man like him in your life. Not everyone has that, man. My heart breaks for you. Keep pushing forward man, I'm sure he is still so proud of you every day.

Brad you’re the first person I started watching when starting to play poker. Thank you for the vlogs. Your Dad is proud of you and may he Rest In Peace

Brad, this brought back all the feelings of when I lost my Dad back in college, especially that voicemail at the end. I'll be praying for you and your family during this tough time. Definitely don't stop making the vlogs like your Dad said, it's been and will continue to be an amazing documentation of your journey. You've got such a big heart for your fans, really putting yourself out there to interact with as many of your fanbase as possible which most KZreadrs find especially challenging, and I'm sure you get that heart from your Dad. I think the worst part of losing someone you care about is that the world keeps moving onward while you're mourning, but know that we, your followers, support and care about you! Stay strong buddy.

I would add that Brad also got that heart from his mom. Just look at the snippets in his vlogs, she is a great character in his life, too.

Thanks for sharing so much, Brad. I was moved by your tribute, and can appreciate your close relationship with your dad, and how you’re feeling now. I lost my father when I was 29, and still think of him every day at the age of 51. We are blessed to have had these caring, wonderful men in our lives. I hope you take time to take care of yourself - the temptation can be to burn the candle at both ends, please look after your health. Thanks again

Wow. I'm so sorry to hear about your father's passing. It was powerful to see your emotions In fact, I'm an emotional wreck through the whole end of this. The voicemail, the story of his life and how he went from not supporting you, to telling you to never stop. That's so powerful. I am happy to hear that he absolutely loved the vlogs and meeting everyone, and it proves there is something to this community and somethin about you that is just absolutely magnetic. Thanks for the video, I'm sorry I missed it when it came out, I was having my surgery. But nothing I could lose would mean more to me than losing my dad. And so coming out and sharing this was a wonderful memorial for him and thanks for bringing us along on the ride! Thanks for all your hard work, and helping us all learn so much more about poker and fall in love with the game! PS: the double quads was unreal, but that wasn't anywhere near the best part of this vid.

Super sorry for your loss :( I pray that you take all the time you need, and you know we support you through this hard time! Praying for you and your family! ❤️

So brave of you to film yourself telling us this news. So sorry for your loss Brad, I will pray for your family to have comfort during this difficult time. From the clips we saw, your dad always had a big smile on his face….that’s cause of you.

So sorry for your loss Brad.clearly your dad was super proud. Keep living your dream buddy, your dad will be forever by your side. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family from the UK.❤️

Hi Brad, I’m sorry for your loss. My thoughts go out to you and your family and this difficult time. How wonderful that he got to see your career grow and to support you in the way that he did!

Never commented before Brad. I just love watching you young men grind. When my dad pass I know now why they named it the wailing wall. Did not know it was in myself to have this kind of grief. May you continue to shine. We have been watching from the very early years. I can not tell how much I have enjoyed your passion for poker. The truth is I do not play poker. What I love and do understand is the journey. Now that I'm about to retire even more so. Please don't stop your channel! Love SueLee and Roggiedale

Thanks Brad, I just had to explain to my wife why I’m balling like a baby watching poker vlogs on my couch… so sorry for your loss. Sounds like your dad was very proud of you and that is one of the best feelings in life.

I got into poker because of you, Brad, and so I owe a lot of thanks to your father as well. Sending you the best and keeping y’all in my thoughts. Love what you do, and like he said, please never stop!

Thanks Bradley for sharing. The tribute to your father brought many tears. My father was a type A, always worried I would not be the successful man he thought I could be. In my early 30's I called him as I did from time to time to see how he was getting on, and during one of those calls he said, "you know, I am always happy to hear you your voice as you are always so happy, joyful and cheerful." He repeats this almost every time we speak to this day. Watching this tribute reminds me of how lucky both my father and I are he came to realize the joy of a son being happy in the eyes of his father. Sorry for you loss, Miles.

first time and (probably) last time I'll cry watching a youtube video. So sorry for your loss Brad. Here to tell you we all love the message your dad shared with you! You've had the biggest positive impact on poker of anyone I can think of, and it's awesome that your dad came around to understand that.

Wow, that message from your dad at the end got me. What a treasure that you got that and it's so cool that he was such a vocal supporter at the end. And he's right - you are very talented, both at poker and the vlog. You and Andrew have absolutely paved the way for a new generation of poker and the way you weave in personal life with solid poker content is impressive. I'm in Tampa so hope to see you at my home casino at the end of August. God bless!

My father recently passed in May here too Brad. I've been watching tons of your videos and absolutely love the growth your channel is getting, it really makes me happy man. Stay strong and keep it up for his sake, we all love what you're doing

Brad I’m so sorry for your loss. Thanks for sharing that message from your dad. Just from hearing that you can feel how much love he had for you and how proud he was of you. Cherish those memories forever.

What wonderful words from your father, he was most obviously a very special man. Keep doing what you are doing Brad, you inspire not only us as poker players, but as fellow humans. Very sorry for your loss. A hug from Portugal man.

I keep trying to watch other poker vlogs but nobody does it like Brad. He's the GOAT

Much love Brad you're a strong man that brought tears to my eyes, love you dude keep chasing your dreams! Proud to support your content in every way I can. Hope to make it out to meet you some day!

What a beautiful ending to this vlog Brad. Sending an abundant amount of love and light to you and your family through this tough time. I hope your dad lives on through you and everyone else that loved him. Stay strong always love you Brad 💞

Amazing tribute to your dad. He raised one of the good guys much like himself. I have to agree with him, never slow, stop the vlog. Share your gift with others. Thank you Brad. My condolences to you and your family.

Your dad was right; your followers absolutely love you, and this channel is a phenomenon. I laughed out loud at the Brendan Fraser references, and my eyes filled with tears when I heard your dad’s encouraging words. Thanks for sharing this treasured, personal glimpse at his character and life. Makes me want to be a better, more encouraging dad for my kids. And regarding the phenomenon: I can show up to a 1-2 game at a random Casino in Arizona on a Thursday night, and when I mention Brad Owen, most of the table smiles and fondly talks about this vlog. Rampage could never. This was a magnificent tribute to your dad. All your successes will continue to be a tribute to the man who supported you. I hope you take his advice and keep creating as long as you can✊🏼

It’s amazing how we have to defy our parents to follow our dreams and in the end they respect us for it. Sorry for your loss. He raised a good man and ultimately I’m sure that was his dream.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Brad, your dad seemed like a very lovely person. All my very best from New Zealand.

Brad, that ending was better than any big score you've shown us. What a great, supportive family.

Brad I’m so so sorry man, I’ll never forget that time when your dad came to the poker room at the Graton and gave you a thumbs up after you won that huge pot. Definitely my favorite vlog. Take care man and my heart goes out to you during this difficult time.

Lovely message at the end… condolences and keep making him proud 💕

Didn't think I'd cry today... Much love to you and your family Brad. Incredibly beautiful and special vlog which I hope will bring you some more peace in time. Next to a KZread celeb you've always remained a normal dude and I guess thats why so many people love your content. In good and bad times in both poker and life you always kept it real, thank you for that!

I havent cried like that in a long time brad that voice mail from ur dad is amazing thank you for sharing that with us. Much love man

Sorry for your loss brother. Your dad seems like a legend. You can tell how proud he is of the vlog, keep it up

I hope I can be an ounce of an inspiration to my kids one day as your dad was to you. Such an emotional heartfelt ending and I’m sure your dad will always be in your heart and on the felt with you forever We love you Brad!

Brad, thank you for sharing. This was touching, endearing and respectful. Means a lot that you got to share some of these moments with us.

Hey Brad, I’m a recreation player playing primarily $1-$3 no limit and started watching your vlog a couple months ago. I can’t tell you how much my game has improved in terms of thought process and narrowing opponents hand range and it has shown in my results. I went all the way back to the beginning and started from your first vlog. I love your humour as well as the way you break down the hands. You’ve come so far from that initial vlog and your confidence really shows through today. I’m still about a year behind in terms of catching up to the current vlogs but I just wanted to say how great this has been watching your journey. It really feels like we get to know you on a personal level so I was absolutely gutted at the end of this video finding out about your dad. He’s right. Don’t stop doing these vlogs. They are amazing! And the end of this one is just more proof of that. A fitting tribute to your dad and what he meant to you and his influence on you. Hope you’re keeping well! We need a meet up game in Niagara Falls Canada so I can come out. You’re awesome! Keep it up! Cheers!

The most amazing and loving integration of family love and poker that I’ve ever seen ant poker blogs. Your father seemed a true man and a loving father. Thank you Brad for sharing something so personal and caring. Your story tells us all that a loving family is winning with the nuts. God bless you!

my heart goes out to you and your family Brad. i've been a watcher of your channel for the past few years and you've been so entertaining and open with us through it all, it is truly refreshing to have someone like yourself making these vlogs and learning this news about your father really hits close to home for me. thank you for everything you do and if you see this message i hope you know you have a big fan and will continue to support you throughout your journey, cheers!

What a heartfelt tribute. Very nicely done. I lost my mom a year ago and just watching your video brought it all back to me, but in a good way. You captured all the wonderful things about your father, and it made me remember all the wonderful things about my mom. Thanks so much for sharing.

I can hear it in your voice how much you love you pops, my prayers are with you and your family. Everyone is here to support you through this difficult time... so much love to you and your dad.

Brad my heart goes out to you man. Just remember all of the good times you two shared over the years. Keep working hard and you’ll get through this time in your life. You earned all of the success you’ve had and I’m sure your dad was extremely proud of you and that was a great tribute you added at the end!

Hey Brad, I'm a longtime follower of the vlog, though I've never commented here before, but I think it's safe to say that everyone who's made this journey with you appreciates your openness in sharing this loss. It's actually an act of great generosity--for we all have, or will, deal with profound loss in our lives, and it is through the sharing of that we find a way to cope and move on. So thank you, and be well, and carry on as he wanted you to do. All best.

I don’t think I’ve ever bawled my eyes out so hard at a KZread video. It’s just so evident the love you have shared with your father. Your story, his words is why this is so much more than a game. I’m so sorry for your loss, Brad.

I'm so sorry for you. To hear a message like that from a father would be life changing for me and what a supportive family. I've been watching your videos since the start of the pandemic and you and Andrew have kept me grounded and learning about something I really enjoy. I agree with your Dad that your humor and comments on the hands and the other players has gone to the next level so not only enjoy learning but I smile listening to your comments. I would share that when you lose someone close to you the best thing for me was to share stories and talk about them as much as possible for years and years and talk with other people with stories to help me process the loss. Take care.

Thanks for sharing this with us Brad. Great parents are an incredible blessing. A man who will tell you to quit and then tell you to never quit is the kind of supporter you need. I love the vlog and agree wholeheartedly with your dad's assessment for you to never stop.

Brad, your jokes and puns never cease to amaze! You and this vlog have come a long way. That being said, I’m sure your dad was so proud of the things you’ve done. Cherish that last voicemail and hold onto it forever. I have my dads last voicemail, and it always brings a tear to my eye. So sorry for you loss! 🙏🏼

Man didnt think I was going to cry like a baby watching a poker video. Very touching at the end about your Pops, seemed like he was an awesome fucking Dad! Prayers to you and the family, keep killing it Brad! You're Pops is looking down on you always!

I didn't expect the ending to be such inspiring and touching note, I really appreciate you opening up to us like that, your dad would of loved this episode ❤

Brad! What great respect a have for you. The end of this vlog was truly touching and I am so sorry for your loss! Your dad seemed like such an amazing person and I hope you know he will continue to see all of your vlogs and moments as you continue to grow in your poker career! Keep those memories close to your heart and continue to spread the joy from both yourself and your dad to our community! Love you Brad!

That tribute video for your dad was beautiful. i've never met you, Brad, however, you can tell what a wonderful person you are. It is so apparent to see how you developed into the person you are with such amazing people like your parents. Thank you for letting us in and able to see that. I wish you and your family nothing but comfort, support, and love during this time.

Hey Brad, first-time commenter but this video really hit me hard and I wanted to let you know how much I support you and your vlogs. Your dad seemed like an incredible man. My mom currently has stage 4 cancer and isn't doing too well some days so I really felt the end of this video. Much love always :)

My condolences to you and your family Brad. We loved seeing your Dad on the vlog and hearing about him. He sounded like a real special guy.

Really sorry for your loss Brad, cant imagine what it must feel like. Stay strong. My condolences

This vlog really hit home for me. That voice-mail from your Dad is priceless. I think those are the types of words every son wants to hear from their father. I lost my Dad 4 years ago, and this video was cathartic. This also made me really think about how often I should let my own sons know how I feel about them. I shared this video with my wife who has no interest in poker, but she also really enjoyed watching it. Your heart, humor, depth, and vulnerability come through and are the reason you have truly separated yourself from all other poker vlogs. Thank you for putting yourself out there. I'll never stop watching.

Thank you Brad for putting such an honest and heartfelt tribute out into the world. I happened to watch this episode on Fathers Day in Australia, and it is beautiful to see the relationship you had with your dad. He seemed like a wonderful person. ❤️

wow brad I know that there are no words that can express this loss. I can see how much your dad loved you and how much he meant to your family. Sending love and best wishes to help through this very difficult time. Thanks for all the years of this vlog and I hope it will continue for many more to come. Wishing you nothing but the best. With love the Dickens family.

Brad, your blogs got me through a tough time when my dad was sick and ultimately passed. I would listen to the blogs driving back and forth at late hours between LA and Hemet CA. Sorry to hear about your dad. Hang in there. I know how tough it is.

That Hemet to LA drive is brutal 🤣 Railroad Canyon is no fun lol

I’m so sorry to hear about you loss Brad. Your tribute at the end was so so touching. Had me in tears. Wishing you and your family the best.

Sorry for your loss Brad. I know your dad and family are very proud. I always enjoy watching your vlogs. After watching your tribute to your dad, this video made me go back to your very first poker vlog to watch from the very beginning of your Poker vlog journey. I hope to see you again at a meet up game soon. Take care man.

I'm so sorry for your loss Brad . Your dad gave you a lot of good advice. The fact that you spent a lot of time with him is priceless. I lost my dad while I was away in the war in Vietnam. I was 18 and he was 42. Hearing that your dad passed brought tears to my eyes but I also smiled for the memories that you have of him and he got to watch you go for your dream . Best of luck Brad and always remember that he's sitting right next to you at the table enjoying you become the man that you are. Stay Strong my Friend !

Sorry for your loss Brad always love the vlogs they've helped me improve my game tremendously. Your dad seemed like an amazing person I'm glad you got to have a father figure like that who got to see the success you achieved

I love this channel. Being apart of your adventure, the high, the lows,. all the laughs and the cries. Thanks Brad

Just rewatching it’s awesome how much humor you put into this vlog especially since your pops had just past. this vlog is hilarious. I’m sure he is looking over you now and couldn’t be more proud

That tribute to your Dad was amazing. I am so very sorry for your loss. Make sure to talk to your Mom as much as possible over the next year. Celebrate how much he meant to you all and celebrate the love he left you all.
