The thing that makes us love Jason is his brutal honesty. It really means a lot to a lot of people. Keep your head up Jason you will get through it and figure it out. Much love.
Jason Ellis you are amazing you're too hard on yourself I'm living in a tent which is funny cuz you brought it up in the podcast but you seem like an awesome cumin be proud of your accomplishments I hope you have a beautiful day
talk to Bobby Lee! you guys are going thru the same thing and are kindred spirits. Love you Jason!! Came from Hawk v Wolf and now i love seeing you all over the place.
Just WOW. What a fucking great episode. Yo Jason, keep your head up man. Never thought I could relate to you that much but here it goes - I'm bisexual (never said that on any social media, but I think this is a safe space). I'm an addict (alcoholic), and been through a "divorce"of some sorts (living with a girl, not married), and even if the breakup wasnt my fault, it almost destroyed me. I got to know you because Hawk Vs Wolf, I just wanna say keep doing you, you're a beautiful human being with lots of talent, and I just wish you the best. That's it. Thank you. Keep doing you, I'm just one person but I fuck with you. Peace bro, peace Katie, lots of bravery to share this kinda stuff. Peace
No hate or judgment here......but if you are a guy....you CANT be bi - sexual! If you have taken another man's parts in your mouth or anus....EVEN ONCE.....then you are gay! No true hetero-sexual male would let an erect penis anywhere NEAR THEM! You are gay.......and that's fine! Men can't be bi - sexual.....that's ridiculous!
@@TheJasonEllisShowdon't go to cri help.... Find refuge recovery base. It's more focused in mindfulness. Cri help is behavior modification which is basically a fancy word for brainwashing. Fuck them.
Hang in there, Jason and Katie! Glad to see Dr. Drew on the show during these times. Tully, thanks for breaking it down like you always do, those cultural details matter whether we realize it or not.
I'm sad to hear that you and Katie are breaking up, but your openness about the queer stuff is beautiful, powerful, and has more positive impact than you realise.
Bro you already worked your ass off to have the connections you have, use em. Don’t let yourself diminish yourself cause you’re not starting from the bottom in comedy. Real recognize real ❤ as a new fan I’m loving you man
Jason be gentle with yourself... you have a good heart and that's what really matters. Just take care of yourself. I really appreciate all of you speaking openly about private matters. I wish you all nothing but the best! ✌️❤️✨
Im 41 and that question about the binge drinking really resonated with me...thank you for answering it so well and I am definitely going to consider stopping drinking completely. Love ya shit Jase and keep that chin up. Reppin us Aussies well over there 🇦🇺
That was me. He's actually spot on, what I was saying that Jason didn't get through is I can totally have 1 or 2 drinks but I really have to control myself to stop there, because of my past binging. And he's definitely right about that leading to poor behavior and bad decisions in my 20s and 30s. I've really pulled it together in the last few years, but it's that struggle that lead to the question. I wish I could just be normal and have 1 or 2 beers and that's it, but alcoholism will always want me to keep going. It's up to me to stop myself and be responsible for myself and to be a good partner for my gal. I don't think I'm ready to quit completely, but the day is coming. Hope this helps my friend.
Truly saddened by this news. 😢 Please please just live your truth man. Help is out there! Drew has your back! We’re all backing you both!Katie you’re an amazing person and truthfully wish both of you the absolute best!! The world is a better place with you than without you! Your kids need their AMAZING dad!!
I've been listening to Jason since December of 2006. What I have learned is this....he looks at money and fame as being the number 1 thing in his life. His priorities have been in the wrong place for most of his adult life. I love listening to his show. I do not have an addictive personality, but he's been chasing something for decades and filling it with empty "fun" stuff. I wish the best for him, but he needs HELP, in a way that he's never fully allowed himself to get help. Get better, Jason. You, your kids, the people around you need you to look in the mirror and take FULL responsibility. Hugs brother
I stopped listening several years ago. Used to love the show tho… It seemed like he really shit on people in favor of money and fame, who really helped him get where he was… Rawdog, Christian Hand, Mayhem, etc etc…
Jason...luv....give yourself more grace. You are a beautiful human and have great value for which you are greatly appreciated. Wishing you all the best 🇨🇦❤
Jason could write a book on mental health, his life as a skateboarder and growingup with difficult family, and addiction. I feel it could be an outlet to get the frustration out and share some knowledge from experience to others too.
Ya know Jason, I’m a housewife and mother. 46 yes old. I have a wonderful spouse a nice house and can’t complain about a dang thing. But I use Kratom. I’ve always been an addict which stemmed from my childhood abuse. I’m working on it one step at a time. Tackling one trauma at a time and trying to figure it out. It’s hard to “change” these things in ourselves no matter how good things are on the outside. I’m here for your growth and I only found you recently so there are still new people finding you. I actually found you through Katie as I randomly saw her. Keep being open about yourself and your struggles and the right people will follow as well as inspire you in your journey. ❤ Each day is a new day to wake up and make choices that inch us closer to our best self. That’s the goal. Be your best self. That’s not perfection. That’s reaching the level you can while you are here in this earth. Peace for you.
Two things that I relate to the most here is #1. Our inner bully. The voice that tells us that we aren't good enough. Never have been and never will be. The voice that has the power to flip anything positive on its head and makes us feel like we don't deserve it...we're not good enough...we'll ruin it eventually anyway and so on. #2. We find comfort in the devil we know. No matter how bad we want to change our patterns and live in happiness and be content, it's foreign and for some crazy reason uncomfortable. So we find ways to tear it all apart and find comfort in the chaos. I'm working on challenging the inner bully and welcoming the uncomfortable. I truly hope you find a way to do the same. XOXO
I tell myself the same thing but I've also been told my whole life I wouldn't amount to anything. I have a college degree and a 20 yr career and those words still are with me and still don't think I'm shit. Words hurt worse than a fist
Jason you are loved. You are appreciated. You are an absolute inspiration. We have your back. Thank you for being you. Thank you for being brave and showing your vulnerability and realness. Everyday is a battle and you can only fight 1 battle at a time. Each day you are still here means you have won a battle. 🥰🥰 love from your Aussie fan family.
This is definitely going to be a heavy episode. I'm saying that before I have even started it. But, if the Sickler episode means anything. Things are not all Rose's on the Ellis front. I'm sure Jason is unlikely to read this. But, if you do. Keep your chin up. You have many people rooting for you. Even if I am likely not the kind of person you would hang with. (I used to inline skate lol some other reasons as well I'm sure. But, who cares?). We love you dude. Hope you figure this all out. Stay strong.
I wanted to hear more of Katie’s thoughts. It’s ok, obviously, that she shares as much or as little as she wishes. I’m just saying I wanted to hear from her more in this podcast.
This shit hit so close to home. Going through almost the same shit even got a long time girl named Katie. Been following you forever I'ma old school skate board fan. You got this. We got this man. Thanks for talking about it. I feel dumb for being addicted to kratom after coming back from worse addictions, this shit really helped. Much love brother.
Damn, this makes me so sad. Been a fan of you since your skating days. I will always be a fan of you. You dont me , I never met you but I would not think any less of you. Keep your head up. I am pulling for you!!
I’m a huge proponent of cannabis and Kratom. But I just think it’s worth it to clear out your psyche for a bit. Doesn’t have to be forever. Can always go back just give it a try and a chance. 💔💔💔 you guys. Big love to Katie and Jason.
Kratom is an opioid. It causes exactly the same types of dependence, it has powerful withdrawals, and regular use has very negative health consequences.
@@corneliusthecrowtamer1937 I should’ve clarified , I’m a proponent of it as a tool to help wean individuals off the harder stuff. Not so much the other way, if there’s no existing dependency on something hard, I wouldn’t be recommending to that person Do you have personal experience with kratom?
Jason listen bro, you’re the most open and honest and humble person I’ve ever watched. You don’t know how much you mean to people, I relate to you so much in so many ways. It helps me and helps so many people. I’ve followed you for years even way back on Sirius days and no matter what you’ve went through you always prevail and come out the other side! You’ll make it bro. You have a world of fans on your side 🤟❤️
I think finding a way to confront and process your shame, and sincerely attempt to do so with honesty and humility instead of getting defensive. With all due respect to Drew, and truly I respect him, I feel as though Jason would benefit from detaching his foundational self-worth and -perception entirely from external signals. Jason, when you try to use everyone else's perception of you to determine your worth, you end up with an unstable and misguided sense of self. ~ To assess yourself honestly, 1st, judge yourself using the same standards with which you judge those you care about. If Katie did something that disappointed you, would you believe it made her a bad person? Would you believe she, by making poor decisions, no longer deserved love or forgiveness? By your standards, if Katie is worthy of love&happiness, despite her short-comings, then so are you. This also applies to the opinions of fans, audience, and strangers. If some random person, or 100 random people, told you Katie is lame and not good at what she does, would you feel different about her? Or would you think they could fuck right off, because you actually know Katie, and you also know yourself, and they don't. 2nd, Practice not taking things personal. Unless someone youre close to is telling you something from a place of love, don't take it personal. 99.9% of the time, other people's bad attitudes, negative opinions, and cruel comments have nothing to do with you, personally. There are a lot of sad, insecure people out there that will spew projections of their own shame at anyone less miserable than them. Lastly, when people you respect, especially professionally, offer opportunities and encouragement, take them at their word, and take them up on their offers. They wouldn't offer opportunity, have you on their podcasts, encourage your comedy, and include you in their shit talk if you weren't welcome in the comedy community ;) Keep your head up, everyone ❤ Do what you need and want to do, real fans are just along for the ride 😘
Jason, love you man! Saw you on scissor bros, remembered laughing my ass off to you in the early Sirius days! Sirius has fallen off, you are a star! Sorry to hear about your personal issues but it sounds like you have a lot of people that care about you!
I haven't been a fan for long - just recently came across you from the YMH appearances you've done. But I really appreciate the vulnerability and honesty. I'm also an addict and so much of my life is hiding and denial and lying, especially to myself, and it's really helpful to see you be open like this. It's so hard man, it feels like you do a bunch of really good work to get better, and you get on a good track, and then one day you wake up and you've slipped right back down into the shit again. But having people around that love you and care about you makes it worth climbing back out. So I'm pulling for you, man - I hope you'll accept the love that is clearly there for you and keep working at all this shit, because it's worth it (I know how hard that can be when you feel like you don't deserve it).
I discovered jason through ymh and have really loved this man's honest experience and perspective. Thank you jason for being real and sharing with us. I hope you can get yourself to a good place. I really really love this man
Jason you are a fking incredible human. We all Fk up. In one way or another. What matters more is how we move forward. You are intelligent, so FUNNY, hot AF AND SOOOO KIND. I could listen to you for hours. Keep on keepin on…. This will pass and you’ll be an even more incredible person on the flip. You’ve got an army behind you cheering you on. Love from Seattle ❤️
23:34 sums up the last 2 years of my life. Hate seeing someone else in that place, but also gives me some comfort. Jason seems like a guy who will figure it out. Maybe I’m that guy too
just wanted to spread some happiness. I'm a new fan of yours. I've seen you here and there, but I just wanted to let you know that the brutal honesty can be magnetic for people who are also going through some tough times. just know that some fans may not like certain things you talk about but it also opens the door for a lot of new fans, too.
I'm the third Ellis listening type = Knowing Jason as a skateboarding professional almost my entire life, being able to witness his growth into his own sexuality, and just being inspired as hell to listen more. 🙏 And the inspiration isn't for the brave face, it's for the vulnerability and honesty. This must have been a difficult episode to film for everyone and Katy is a warrior for doing it.
I’ve been watching Jason Ellis since his guest spots on Loveline with Mike Catherwood and Dr. Drew. I’ve watched him on other podcast and it sucks that his journey to become his true self has been this painful. I hope he can see stop hating himself because that shame will spiral. There’s nothing wrong with being sexually open and any woman would find Jason attractive (especially me)💖 especially if he could get professional help.
Don’t give up Brothern! Your kids need you and you’re not alone. You still got a lot you can accomplish. Where Life is at it’s worst you gotta keep standing, take the punches, get back up, and learn to be strong with what you have. I hope that makes sense and things gets better
This was the first video I’ve seen from Jason. Support is the answer pushing them to the obvious answer will get more resistance. Reframe, come back in 3 mo and try again, and again
😔 Really sorry Jason & Katie! Breaks my heart to hear. Going through a divorce right now myself, I feel your pain and wish you guys weren't feeling it. This was a rough one to get through, hitting a little too close to home lol 😰 Still love you guys!
Stay strong Jason!! Chin up Mate!! You and your content are what we like! Don't change a damn thing! We are here with you even if the F@#$ing numbers don't show it!! F&%K EM! Balls to the Walls! Love on Ya!!
Sorry to hear that Ellis! Been a hot minute since i listened, but hope youll figure it out. And Lean on your friends bc you've always been there for them!
This was vulnerable. Keep being yourself, tell your story, and don’t worry about censorship so much. You’re one good “demonetized” episode away from being relevant to a new, larger group of people.
Most real . Intense podcast ever. The openness you guys have is incredible. I feel for you divorce is freeking hard. Sending you love from montreal canada
Attachment focused EMDR therapy would change your life. It's what I've provided to awesome people, like you, for the last 16 years. Jason...you are one of my favorite humans on this planet and you are so so worthy of healing
Honestly, I knew Jason from being a skateboarder back in the day, never listened to Sirius but after listening to him on The Honeydew and Dr. Drew after Dark, it's impossible to not see how much of an open and honest person Jason is, even after all the bullshit that life has put him through
For perspective Jason, I’m a middle aged (46) year old conservative, I’ve watched you with Tony but hadn’t subbed here. Today was the day I subbed. You’re a great guy, wrestle those demons and carry on, you got this
People always tell me I'm too hard in myself and stop beating myself up for everything I do but they get the same answer.....I have to because noone else will. People are too nice and supportive which feels not real. Maybe we just want our own opinions parroted back at us and if noone else will hate on us we are perfectly capable of bringing the pain ourselves. Idk good luck bro.
Hey jason! I know being visible as lgbt is tough, but its worth it. I'm trans and i had a really rough time finding jobs for a while. Getting sober for a while allows you to think clearly and sort shit out. I will always be sober but you do you!
WOW, this episode is fire. I’ve watched twice. I’m a transgender male whose been sober 3.5 years. I can relate to you on so many levels. I love how vulnerable you are and in my experience that has been one of the keys to success in sobriety. Being a trans person I really did not want to give a 12 step program a shot but once I got honest, open minded, and willing, it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I hope you can find some peace. You are loved by many and have a lot of people in your corner. Don’t let the few haters get you down. 🖤🖤🖤
And I agree w you on social media and starting over again and it’s a pain for me to! I barely do anything Anymore and feel it’s a young persons game but it’s exhausting on my own doing it all etc
Jason, keep up the honesty man, it's why we all come here, makes you different from the rest of these LA podcasters. Also, Prahran halfpipe awaits your glorious return, she's rusty as hell but still awaits the wolf to ride her.
You see the powerlessness and unmanageability. I hope you can now take the next step. The world would be a shittier place without Jason Ellis in it. I learned that my way was not working and I was in my own way. Once I got out of my own way, things started to change. I wish you both all the best. You probably won't see this, but I offer myself to help you if you ever wanted it
I’m 42. Never knew who you were until you started poppin up on ymh You’re a cool dude, and I hope you keep doing you the best you can. Please take care of yourself. You have a new listener.
If they don’t like you Jason, FUCK THEM. I respect you for talking about your mistakes and owning up to them on camera. That’s really fucking dope. Love Zo
Jason!! It's the algorithm l, not your sexual preference. You're dope asf and I, along with millions of others enjoy listening to you. Shout this channel out every chance you get. I've been following for years but just heard of your channel through your interview with David Spade. Keep your chin up and take breaks when needed. You are loved!
I never knew u even had a show Jason. U should mention it as much as u can on Hawk vs Wolf and all the shows u appear on and I'm sure u will get a bigger following. Your openness is so awesome in a fake world of false appearances on social media. Massive respect. I hope u can work it out with Katie or find a lifelong companion cos everyone needs someone. Big love
Only found out about Jason from Dr. Drew's After Dark episode but already a big fan, there are important lessons to be learned from this dude. His honesty with self really made me think. Hope he finds the success he's looking for.
I was told, Your Not a Bad person, that needs to be good. Your a sick person, that needs to heal and continue to treat my disease. If ur like me, Of course YOU can't stop. Gotta ger help. It would be fighting, without any trainers, or sparring partners. Forever, got my support. Not that I love everything you puttin down.... Jason Ellis
Man this episode literally spoke to me, I feel like a piece of shit but think I’m a decent person and I’m extremely addicted to Kratom. This one hit home with the struggles Jason was talking about
