Alfred "Goat" Brown and Sebastian "Bamm Bamm" Richardson - REAL ONES with Jon Bernthal 

"If you keep running into road blocks, you got the wrong road map" Priceless...

Hey Jon, I’ve worked with Goat the past six years and I can truly say that he really does all of the things he says. He talks to the young guys from the temp agency that are headed down the wrong path. He’s a great coworker and even better person. Thanks for that awesome interview and knowing Goat personally, it’s great to see those guys voices being heard. Peace

Jon, I raised my son as a single mother and an active duty Marine. I married a man I shouldn't have when my son was 8 because I believe a child needs a mom and a dad, ESPECIALLY a son. When that man divorced me when my son was 12 and I was medically retired from.the USMC, I knew that I had to move across the country to New Orleans where my son's verbally and mentally abusive father was, where I knew no one because even a misguided man was better for my child than no father figure at all. It was the hardest thing I've ever done, but it was the best choice for my son. Parents must sacrifice their comfort for their children. I respect what you are doing now. I loved you as the Punisher. It's my favorite show and I wish there was more to watch but when I think of the fight scenes it makes me smile. Semper Fi.

Honestly, Jon, I find it crazy that you're speaking to the other half on behalf of the rest of us... When I was 16 my brother went to prison for 8.5yrs and I joined the Marines at 17 to get out of the situation that we grew up in by other means. Before we left we hated each other and now we have a mutual understanding of our situation and have grown much closer than we ever were growing up. When my brother got out I let him tat me as his first tattoo outside. He added to my sleeve and I won't let him change anything about the tat he gave me then.

I'm from Shreveport Louisiana these guys are legends great interview Jon.

Ok. Wow. I was not familiar with the Bottoms before; really glad I listened. This is the kind of history we should have learned in school. Really appreciate Bam Bam and Goat explaining the sense of community that guided their activities. The respect they continued to hold for others - even when treated inhumanly in prison - is humbling. Thanks for this episode!

These podcasts are my new go to at work. Could listen to these all day Jon. I appreciate everything you do greatly 🤘

I love this interview, Jon! Thank you for this interview because these are very special people!

This is excellent stuff, we NEED to hear these perspectives. I love what you're doing, Jon! Please keep it up. Just watching these in the last couple days has improved and deepened my perspective and knowledge on several things. I'm realizing that even someone like myself who values open-mindedness and discourse haven't been listening to enough non-celebrities and non-media voices. This is awesome and important as hell

This Brother to this day still advocate for the brothers who are still locked up. He speak positive for those he left . He solid. He don't forget them.

Another great one Jon keep em coming!💯

You are interviewing real fkng legends. I got a photo w goat and tonk at hnh lounge. Im in houston tx now and im so happy to see these men at home.

This is great. I live about an hour and a half south of Shreveport and I’ve heard stories about the Bottoms. Pretty interesting to hear about it from guys that actually lived it. Respect to these guys and Jon.

Love this podcast! It's real, raw, and unique.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Brilliant whoever coined that.

I appreciate your work and you as a person, Jon. Looking out for The Bottoms.

Emotional man. This is good work, Jon. Good work.

My Bottom Family 🤘🏿! I grew up looking up to these guys. It’s great to finally see them out after spending decades in the federal penitentiary. They literally destroyed our neighborhood. All the the parks, homes and businesses were demolished after 1994.

So is there going to be an interview with a police officer from that area in that time to get the other side of the story as to what the bottom boys were actually doing at that time to cause the police to have to go down there and "handle up on them"?

Bam bam is the best

💪🏾❤️💪🏾

Jon on joe rogan, he has some genuine insights and is very honest, I don't watch tv for 20 years, but I know rogans guests are usually Great Human beings, bringing the light to their fellow man. Honest,sharp and humble as a Bright young man. Thank you Jon...your work is appreciated!

I'm from Alexandria Louisiana I walked stoner hill never got fucked with tend to your own in Louisiana they will not have problems with you

You gotta get uncle joey on this man!

I remember my daddy dropping me off and Neva seeing him again.. #traumatizing

Hi Jon, is cold out there? Boots with 5 layers of close...phony

We have a lot of real O.G. 's in North louisiana. 318 in the building ❤❤❤

You can never judge someone by how they look. Fucking Type O Negative. Damn.

I spoke with a couple of young black men and they have said that alot of senseless fights and shooting are due to the perception that they were disrespected and pride takes over. Cause alot of them have no adult males ( ie father) around the home teaching them to become men. So they "learned from gangs or other fatherless young men. The welfare state, lost community vibe, and lack of trade schools needs to be address.

Free will is free will, Also, do good, feel good, do bad feel bad. Nature is a balance, youth is currency, young people should have knowledge of how many options you can create with hard work and patience. Life isn't a race and freedom is not free. Slow and Steady.

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸the walking dead to this 👍👍👍👍👍👍

How in the hell do yall discuss ghetto shit w the ones who created the life were in Goat greg Tonk don bam hulk all of em was businesses individuals.
