This is what a dad is. He loves his sons so much more than he loves himself. I wish I had a dad when I was growing up. My eyes were tearing at how he expressed the love he has for Ian.
Dude your dad is fucking incredible. The “she said I had a character flaw” and his little giggle, when he said “my family is everything”you felt it in your soul and felt that he means it. What a beautiful human he is. I just found you today and I started with Marcie I think was her name, then I went to the very beginning and I’m going to watch them all.❤
I made it to the 49 minute mark without crying, barely! Ian, you are so lucky to have your dad, I am sure you are acutely aware. What an amazing role model. So much respect to you sir!
Your dad is awesome. I got out of prison 20 years ago when I was 23 but my dad still can't answer questions about anything that has to do with that time of craziness. Great interview . I enjoyed it
I'm loving these new podcasts Ian. Your Dad is the real deal. I don't know how you both made it through this episode without balling your eyes out. I was. Keep up the amazing content!
Awesome interview with your dad. You can tell he’s very loyal to his family and always has your back no matter what. You’re super lucky and I can see how close you guys are. Keep up these interviews. Definitely earned a new subscriber from me. Keep up the great work, Ian.
Love your story. I have a similar entrepreneurial mindset and I have no doubt you’ll pay everyone back you owe and much more. Your an inspiration to a lot of people!
You are an extremely good interviewer, always objective and always down to earth. I never feel any hostility or bias or judgement in any of your videos. Truly a remarkable thing you're doing please never stop.
Great interview. I used to go go your shows at tuxedo me and my friends would drive from Boston when we were like 17 to see edm shows. I remember towards the end before you went away I would see you at the venue looking pretty stressed and your dad was also there. I always wondered why you looked so nervous and then you went away we couldn’t believe it. Facebook was so split over you. Supporters and haters you’ll always have both. Keep going man the hustle is inside you !
Years ago I was arrested and went to jail multiple times due to my drug addiction. I never even told my parents I was arrested much less in jail until much later. The thought of being arrested and drug out of the house in front of them makes me want to cry and I would never be able to forgive myself.
My parents always received a called from me when I got my phone calls. They visited me one time and they sent me money once. They said we aren't gonna support you for doing wrong. But we will always be there for you if you want to be sober and a year ago I decided to get clean I got through probation for the first time in my life. 3 felonies my last one was probation and I'm slowly getting on my feet.
After watching you on camp gangon i knew i wanted to see this episode cuz your dad seemed so amazing just from your own POV and this episode did not disappoint. What an awesome father. I really enjoyed this
Few people can truly understand what it takes to come back and rebuild and while you have the strength to accomplish this your father being such a support is really a key component. You can take the boy out of Brooklyn but never, ever, the Brooklyn out of the boy!
I really appreciate this interview with your dad, he's a stand up guy and so are you Ian. The fact that you didn't curl up and hide, instead you have come back with so much courage, doing something good, and determined to make restitution. You didn't intend to do anything wrong, and you were punished way too much. You have learned though and matured through this harsh experience. I am also a mother, and would stand by my children no matter what. Thanks Michael and Ian.. Wishing you everything of the best. ❤ Helen Northern Ireland
Powerful. Had to go back and see what happens with you being in prison. This was a powerful and loving and funny interview. I think your pops is cool and you need to bring him back on and talk about his biz. Or make a social media page for him so we can see his food
I grew up in CT, too. Private school. Our parents let us do our own things and make our mistakes. Gotta respect the respect that takes. We all make mistakes. Good turn around. Nothing better than a lesson learned and a loving family!
Dad said big Bick energy 😂 Ian I love your videos. This is my new favorite channel. I found you on tik tok while I was on break from school and I just keep watching. I’ll keep watching until I’ve watched them all. I’m so grateful that you have a lot of videos.
I freaking love your dad I feel his love for you, As someone whos father shows very little love, guidance selflessness and care to him its truly touching and gives me a a model to aspire to become for my children
Ian, u have one amazing father sir. He helped u out, stood by ur side and never once was angry with u. Instead he was proud of u except for the lying part which is totally understandable. U better make sure u tell him how amazing he was and is every day. He deserves that at minimal. Ur lucky cuz without him u would still be locked up but he made sure u didn’t.
Great interview Ian is a good kid this wasn’t a con it was thinking that you could take some money make more then when it doesn’t work you end up in the hole…literally 😮
Your dad is awesome, one of a kind. No one can judge you Ian, any of us in business for ourselves can mess up on piece of paper or anything small can end us in trouble with irs and if gross income is x amount you may end up talking with FBI
Oh my goodness your dad is such an amazing soul,Who truly believes in you and i hope ypu truly honor him,and i think you do! Im a mother amd grandmother and the love you share for your family is what its about!❤
@@ianbickCT Ian I'm 52 and raised 3 amazing boys,and have 4 granddaughters,I raised them against drugs etc I became a mom at 16 but when that happened I buckled up and dedicated my life to being there Mom,Then at age 40 they were raised and I thought i would go into the world and "Experience Life" I thought i was fine,I'm 40 years old and could handle myself,but oh boy I had another thing coming I met the wrong type of people and was kind and nieve and owned my own car,home etc I stepped into the world of addiction ( Meth) I gave everything of myself to these people that i could tell were broken because my heart was big and i have always been a nurturing loving person to everyone I know & meet! I had no idea that I was just a come up to all these people,I didn't even know what that meant within 5 years I lost everything my home,my car all my belongings to people that were just using me and as they were living in my home they were robbing me blind,I had never been without anything let a lone a place to live! let me tell you when I had to resort to living in a car none of those people were anywhere to be found nor were my family,old friends or the friends I thought I had made! I was alone on the streets in a car without a clue how to survive out there!45 years old and scared to death,I had found myself out of so many bad relationships,but the last one nearly killed me! But at that point at my lowest of low I only had one person to cry out to,it was GOD I couldn't hear him audibly,but I was lead in his direction with little things and now I am standing tall,have my family back stronger than ever and rebuilding my life,but still having an empty space inside me! Knowing I want to help others,but not knowing where to start or what my exact purpose is! I have charges that I want to get exponged,but haven't got that yet and even though I went 40 plus years without ever getting even a driving ticket to now feeling like it's holding me back! Anyway after watching you and others I know there is a way,I just wanted to let you know you are making a difference! love from Oregon
What a great father he is exactly how id be with my son if I was financially fortunate enough to look out like that. When he said he would do anything to your time easier basically I choked up what a fuckin G your pops is... salute
"WHY did you allow those parties?" Such an agressive question 1:13 into the interview. Insane to just pop that onyour father out of nowhere. I love that though, so raw.
My parents raised me perfectly no abuse i always had great parents. I got into drugs dropped out of college joined thr military got 3 felonies...its beem a wild ride but at 32 i got my life back and theres been relapses but keeping my head up and going is all u can do.
Just from watching the first few minutes I can tell your father has had an interesting life and he's a great dad. Knowing your kid is going to go out and party even if you forbid it, is just a part of life. At least he knew where you were throwing parties at his lake house.
@@ianbickCT love your pod bro!!! This one made me a little sad just because I wish my dad cared as much as yours does for you!! 🔥 content man and you have a great personality!
I really enjoyed this episode. Your blessed to have an amazing father. I’m genuinely proud of how your doing now. And have turned your life around by doing something you love doing. The quote where mark Cuban said “I’d rather work 40 hours a week for my self and make 50k a year compared to working the same amount of hours but working for somebody else and making 700k a year” to me that’s bs because I would work at that job 5 years max and save as much as I could then go venture out and start businesses with a couple million dollars in the bank just as a safety net and more financial stability.
