This guy is such a loveable human. It takes sooooo much courage to share your worst moments in life and try to help other people with it. And especially when you’re a public figure formerly revered in society. Love to you, Rex!! You’re a special human and such an inspiration! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@angelisa368 really she was so mean to him, he wanted to tell his story, shes ;like making him feel worse about his past. he's still haunted by this, lighten up dont make him feel worse.
I'm from Rex's hometown of Owensboro, KY. I have had an alcohol problem myself and I know how tough these things can be. I'm really proud of Rex and how well he is doing now and trying to help other people.
Amen to that. I hate that marijuana gets that wrap, when it has been alcohol the entire time. I never wanted to try other drugs when using pot, but that’s the opposite when alcohol is involved. The power of lobbyists cannot be denied.
I appreciate Rex’s willingness to be humble and honest about his struggles and his willingness to give credit to his family as having suffered and formed his support system. Thank you Jesus, that our bad decisions, and suffering as the consequences come around, are never wasted by God. ❤
Gayle let the man talk. We’re here to listen to the guests, not you. Interrupting people when they’re talking, is one of the first things small children learn. Perhaps rehash those teachings and then come back to the show.
I know Ernie doesn’t want extra work, but if it was him and Chuck instead of Gayle, then CNN would at least get more of their target audience of 18-30 males.
