Andrew Tate Tells His Jail Stories

and uh after the house search they put me in a a Transit van surrounded by armed guards and once we got into the van and the cameras were away to be fair the police were pretty not nice to me but I I said to them I think I've pissed off somebody important I said that and the guy driving said I think so that was his answer so I think they kind of knew something wasn't right about all of this garbage I was taken I was mug shotted I was fingerprinted and then I was thrown in jail strip search no strip search they just searched me head to toe they patted me down Etc they all knew who I was everybody knew exactly who I was so like what are you doing here I was like my friend I wish I knew what I was doing here cuz I was arrested on the 29th of December so because of Christmas and in between Christmas and New Year Etc there was no translators working so the papers I was giving for my arrest were in Romania and I didn't even have an English translation of why I was in jail for 2 weeks I didn't know I only I kept giv getting given Romanian pieces of paper I don't speak Romanian all I saw was human trafficking and I was like this is absolutely insane human trafficking who I found out later exactly how insane the whole case is but I was thrown in a jail cell yeah so the Detention Facility when you first went in what was that like so the Romanian detention facilities were built during communism M and Romania is one of the poorest countries in Europe and I don't think any politician could run and win an election based on the fact that he wants to upgrade the prisons considering that the roads are damaged and the hospitals have problems and the pensions can't be paid I don't think you're going to win an election based on prison refurbishment so they have very little interest the European Union as a whole has come along with standards which they're imploring All European nations to meat but Romania I think and this can be looked up I think cedos has find them I think they get find millions and millions of Euros a year because they simply can't and don't meet the standards the people were very nice to me and I want to make this clear all of the the prison guards and the police officers the hway through were very nice to me and I I think they knew what was happening none of them for a second thought I was a bad person they were very much like sorry bro I'm just doing my job you you have annoyed somebody I don't know who and they were all very nice to me but when I was put in that prison it was uh it was a unique experience I would argue that an Eastern European jail has got to be one of the worst in the world wouldn't you say did definitely did you start out in holding cells before you were housed properly no so you get six months in this detention center and at the end of 6 months if you're still being held you get moved to the large jail but the large jail is much better from my understanding cuz the large jail you get to leave your cell and there's like a Taylor shop and a shop and a gym and it's more like a a Comm not Community but you have a exercise yard and it's more like a traditional jail these holding cells are exactly that they are holding rooms and I was in a room maybe two or three times larger than this table perhaps 24-hour a day lockdown I didn't go anywhere I wasn't allowed out there was no gym there was nothing I could take three steps in either direction for 93 days and I was stuck in there the window was about the size of my hand and there was a tiny TV in the corner which I understand was a European Union some regulation they had to fill but it was in Romanian and I couldn't understand it and I was stuck in this darkened room for 93 days on the way to that room were the other prisoners watching you come in everyone everyone started saying fratty Tate which means Brothers Tate Tate brothers because they heard that we were there so it was like Fray dat Fray day was talking about it and the guards are even saying to us this is crazy and I looked at the guard and I said this is bull I'll be out soon right and he kind of looked at me and he went uh and I could see in his eyes he knew that I wasn't going to be out anytime soon and that worried me a little bit but I but I thought at first this can't last long I if I knew I was going to be in there for 93 days I might have had a if if I was capable of having a mental breakdown which I'm not I would have had one luckily I'm incapable because I don't believe in I don't operate within that realm I don't believe in things that can take away power from me I don't have panic attacks I don't have anxiety none of those things up they're not inside of my software but when I first went to jail I thought I'd only be there for a few days so I was like okay this sucks but it's only a couple of days not going to be long right and you're looking for reassurance I'm asking the guards I'm asking the other prisoners I'm like they picked me up on some garbage why am I in here and then you speak to to a prisoner he's like I got picked up on garbage it's like what did you do he goes well I bought and sold crypto but they don't understand it they don't get it and they thought it was money laundering and they've just thrown me in jail I was like well how long you been here he goes two years I was like okay that's not good then I spoke to another guy 3 years this is all pre-trial 19 months 16 months and I was like has anyone been to court they're like oh no no trial takes a long time in Romania takes four 5 years they're busy so I like you're all just sitting here they're like yeah so that was it was over time it started to seep in and after my first night in jail I had to go to a judge the next day to decide whether I'd be released in 24 hours as I just was recently or if I'd be held for 30 days and when I got to court my lawyer who I trust absolutely and I believe is the best lawyer in Romania my lawyer said I've seen the file I've read the file you're going home I was like really he goes yes they are saying that you told your friends how to do Tik Tok and you stole money from the Tik Tok accounts and that it's Human by coercion and that's why they've taken all your cars and all your gold because that's all made from Tik Tok and they've stolen everything but don't worry we're going to clear this up you're going home today and I don't understand Romanian but my lawyer gave a very impassioned speech to the judge and I could tell the passion in his voice and he was a 100% confident and the judge looked very receptive she looked very receptive she was like okay makes sense makes sense makes sense the judge went to to deliberate for about an hour and I was sitting with my lawyer talking about how it's crazy they could even arrest me on something so silly and we're talking about it and about half an hour into this conversation because I'm a professional I said to my lawyer but what happens if I do go to jail and he goes you won't I like but what happens if I do he goes well if you do there'll be an appeal process and after 30 days you go to court again and for some reason reason when he said that I knew it's like deja vu it just it was in my mind I could see it as soon as he said it I looked to Tristan I said we're going to jail he goes no we're not I said Tristan we're going to jail judge came back out sat down 30 days prevent detention boom walks off couldn't believe it put me back put me back in handcuffs and drag me back to jail yeah there's like the Eternal hope of the newly incarcerated and it gets punctured doesn't it and once you accept that you just get on with it yeah I I think it gets worse I think at the first few days when you're trying to work everything out you still have hope in the system to some degree and once you realize the truth of it all it's almost like a month in you're like okay I'm going to be here for a very long time and that's when you get truly almost disheartened I think I felt worse about a month in the beginning wasn't so bad and the end because of Ramadan I felt empowered and it wasn't so bad but in the middle about a month and a half in is when it was really bad and and the story of my New Year's Eve is famous because I was arrested on the 29th and I remember spending New Year's Eve listening to the Lost katchup song There was a tiny little party going on for the guards one of the guards used to say he used to say something to me which kind of made me feel better he'd say how are you said well I'm still in jail he goes brother one day you'll be free I've been in jail for 20 years cuz he works there so I was like maybe yeah may maybe it's not all bad maybe I'll get out one day and I get to go back on my private jet maybe turns out I get to come out but I don't get to go anywhere but um him and the other colleagues were having a little party and they were listening to the Lost catch-up song on New Year's Eve and I remember sitting in that room by myself in the dark and New Year's came around and the fireworks went off and I could see them through the small window and I could hear everybody cheering and I was kind of amused by the fact that when the Clock Struck 12 nothing at all happened like nothing happened it's like happy New Year and then you kind of look around your room there's no one celebrating even the Cockroaches on my ceiling didn't move they're like they were uninterested in the New Year celebration it's just like yeah so uh it was but but that but I didn't feel bad then I still felt like this was some sort of misunderstanding I need to speak to the American Embassy I need to get we have an appeal coming up the judge just put me in jail because it was the 29th of December and she's busy let me get to the heal let's get New Year's out the way let me speak to the Embassy let me get my papers in English let me explain this is garbage and I'll be out and as each one of those things got snatched from me about a month and a half in I realized okay I'm in trouble going back to when you first went in I mean I'd watched your Shank Redemption so I was myself and then I go in all these massive tattooed guys are staring at me through the plexiglass fresh meat yeah with the guys shouting Tape Brothers Tape Brothers Tape Brothers that must have really boosted your spirit cuz didn't you have a did you watch sha shank for examp SE before you did you have a preconceived notion of what you were getting into bang of abroad style yeah it's kind of interesting because Putin recently said about the war in he said growing up on the streets of lenrad taught me that if a fight is inevitable you must hit first and my approach to violence my entire life has been one of absolute avoidance I'm not a violent person and I don't like violence but I understand that violence exists in the world and I've always always been okay at it I'm pretty good at it and to me it's almost like the rain I don't want it to rain but if it rains you get wet and my brother and I kind of looked at each other CU we can speak without speaking CU we lived together our whole lives and as we were taken into the cell we or as we were taken into the jail I apologize from the van we gave each other a glance and a nod and that was basically hit first that was all it meant we're going to walk in there and we're going to hold our heads High we're going to treat people with respect we're going to be a very good person and nice and polite and say please and sorry and thank you but if some idiot really wants it then you're going to hit him first but I didn't feel like it was up to me it's almost like is it going to rain is it going to snow I'll deal with it if it comes and there's nothing I can do about it so I felt a twinge of nerves but not fear it was more like pre-fight nerves like I have no idea who's in this place I have no idea what they think of me I have no idea if they're going to attempt to extort me because I'm known for having money Etc but it is what it is and God has a plan and if I win or lose whatever encounter I enter once again it's God's plan perhaps I'll die in here but it is what it is the the jail cell doors were were solid metal there was only a very tiny window so I couldn't see anything but the eyes of the other prisoners so I couldn't really get gaaged gauge on them and then I was thrown in my cell so I didn't engage with any of them for the first few days do you remember the very first conversation you had with a prisoner yes the very first conversation I had with a prisoner was asking how long he'd been there and what for and I soon came to realize and I'm sure this is true in most countries which are poor that there isn't much of a divide between the criminal justice system and the mental health system in the west we try our best to put a divide in the two even if you do bad actions if you're mentally ill you'll be treated differently whereas in countries like this you just go to jail so I started to learn over time that a lot of the people in there were mentally ill or mentally weak you know what's kind of funny you imagine the prisoners in jail to be these big Psychopathic hardened killers and some of them are but a lot of the people even the ones who commit murder are actually just emotionally weak people who can't control their temper they're they they will get angry too fast and kill someone they'll also cry too easy they'll also be very sad they also mope around you'll see a killer and you imagine him to walk like a predator a lot of The Killers walked like they were just depressed and sad and I was like he looks like he's having a hard time why why is he here oh he killed four people like oh okay I don't feel sorry for him anymore but like it's strange how it's just mentally weak which ties back into the matrix by the way it ties back into all the things I teach because they say I'm dangerous for teaching masculine qualities but the traditional masculine quality is stoicism the ability to ignore how you feel and act how you're supposed to act irregardless of your feelings women get mad and scream women act like how they feel a man has to feel a certain way and act differently or he can't compete in the world he can't out compete other men so the men who can't do that are the ones who end up in jail so when the feminists and the Matrix is saying men need to act out their feelings and be more sensitive well if we act out our feelings guess what happens people also get killed cuz we get mad so it's not a good thing so I often I was actually surprised by the people who I saw who did the most heinous crimes weren't Psychopathic and calculated they seemed more like beaten down by life does that make sense yeah definitely disadvantage a lot of them traumatized a lot of them state raised where I was at a third of them couldn't even read or right and half my friends were ex soldiers come back from Wars PTSD didn't get any help from the government bam into the prison system yep yep and and and isn't that the saddest possible route because we I keep going back to the Matrix but I'm going to allow myself that privilege because they put me in jail yesterday these clowns but they attack masculinity on every level and say every single thing about it is bad until they need you to die in a war or run into a burning building or they need 33 big guys to bust in my door then they need masculinity so they'll send you off to go die for a war you don't even truly understand you don't even know why you're there I'm sure they've told you why you're there there but you don't know why you're actually there and you're going to risk life and limb and if you survive and come back with any kind of mental trauma and then don't act exactly how they want you to act as a good taxpaying slave they just throw you in jail without remorse meanwhile George Bush and Dick Cheney have made billions of course they' they've laundered all the money so the whole thing is truly disgusting and yeah I'm sure that's one of the saddest paths but it's also a path I can very easily see how people will end up in jail after coming back with PTSD from war their wife's someone else the last 6 years they come back expecting to come home to a happy family she's been with Tom Dick and Harry and and they have PTSD and they can't pay their bills of course they're going to end up doing something stupid and they're going to end up in the prison in the prison system and yeah they're going to catch a murder charge or something else and they're not Psychopathic Killers they're they're sad the people in jail who actually seem like the most calculated were a lot the financial criminals they're sharp you know mentally at least but also in a Romanian jail and like I said this is not insult to Romania I'm sure this is the same in most poor countries there was a lot of Simply mental health issues there was a lot of people who were simply mentally ill and they weren't separate in any way so you had people who would just bang their head on the door until they bleed everywhere and an ambulance would have to come and they'd get dragged out the cell unconscious or whatever patched up thrown back in three days later they bang their head on the door so I was living in a mental Asylum part part of the experience was it there was there were a lot when I was in there I can't say exactly how many but there were times the guards rushed into my room and did a complete sweep for anything that I could kill myself with I was like guys I would never kill myself have you not seen my podcasts and they're like no Tate we got to take everything they took my little bottle of Tobasco because it was made of glass they took my exercise band I could took my bed sheets took my shoelaces and your room just gets stripped of any type of comfort whatsoever so yeah it was uh it was interesting going back to your cell how did you use the toilet was the little sink combination toilet in uh how did you shower yeah interesting so we had a uh very efficient combination in the corner we had a little sink and then we also had a toilet which was effectively a hole in the ground there was no toilet of any kind a hole in the ground and there was a shower above the hole in the ground and from what I could deduce all the holes in the ground from all the cells in a row were on the same large sewage pipe so there was all these holes in the ground going to the same large sewage pipe but the real problem was that the shower was above this hole in the ground so using the toilet was inconvenient but the biggest problem is that that if you went to have a hot shower and the water was hot which actually surprised me we had hot water it would stink out because it would go down to this sewage pipe and sewage steam would come out and steam out the room so you couldn't really have a hot shower without suffering 3 hours of sewage smell inside of your cell so you'd it was a unique experience of knowing there was hot water but being forced to use the cold to avoid the stench what was the stench light yeah it was uh I only found out once and I decided to have cold showers from then on out and it was it was January in Bucharest so it was minus it was very cold outside and I'll be honest after about two weeks I just thought you know I'll just stink I'll just have one shower every couple weeks them if you don't like how I smell let me go because I'm freezing I'm either freezing to death in my bed shivering or my room stinks so that was the kind of combination in the corner and then we had bunk beds uh the mattresses were piss stained foam perhaps an inch literally so thin and we had a blanket and uh that was the sell we had a tiny T tiny TV in the corner this big did you have toilet paper rations cuz when we run out we have to use the financial times yeah they they didn't they didn't ration our toilet paper no uh I I think my brother and I might have been the richest people ever to be in a Romanian jail because you have a commissary limit and you have a commissary spend and obviously we were maxing out our spend what was the weekly limit I think it was I think you were allowed €500 a month but between us both that's €1,000 a month in our Cale by the time we were together and if you're only buying cheap things I mean it's quite a lot I might be wrong it might be €500 every two weeks so we might have had 2,000 a month but most people in there were in there with no hope no money no money on the commissary no one sending the money nothing they're living living on the free jail food and they're begging for cigarettes whereas my brother and I had unlimited Cigarettes Unlimited toilet paper unlimited bottles of water unlimited unlimited unlimited we had all these things the problem was that we could only buy food from this approved list and this store whatever store they found must have literally been the store around the corner because they sold no protein no meat nothing of substance you could just buy Oreos cookies toilet paper water Coca-Cola junk you could only buy junk food which was quite frustrating because you buy Oreos and then you sit in jail and you think I'm not going to eat too many Oreos cuz I don't want to get out of shape in this place and then you're just staring at the Oreos 33 whole minutes which of course is 10 hours in jail and you end up just eating four packs of Oreos a day so it was annoying me I couldn't get any real food and and I had to live off the prison system food or eat junk food effectively so if you had a lot of commissary then that makes you a Target because you you've got to break bread to your mates but if you break too much bread the mooches are going to be lined up at yourself trying to get everything you've got yeah how did you balance that I really do believe that 99 % of people if you treat them with respect will give you respect back I really believe that of course there are the oddballs and there are some people who are simply broken and there's some people which are quicker to anger than others but I feel like if you are pretty respectful to most people you'll be okay and I feel like in general jail is just a condensed version of life for a man I feel like it's just hyper condensed if you get angry in traffic you wouldn't be able to survive jail you get angry quicker people get angry quicker you have to be more more polite you have to be more quiet sometimes you have to be more prepared for a fight even though you don't want to have one everything's just turned up a notch that's how it is and uh I was very giving and nice to people but I also sometimes simply said no and I felt like if I explain myself it's weakness so for the same reason I don't like to explain myself in my everyday life and I'll segue and say this a lot of people think I'm some rich kid I think a lot of the people even in the jail thought I was some rich kid like ah Brothers they're rich guys they didn't realize that my brother and I are the opposite of rich kids we're poor people with a lot of money we're from the streets we're from the absolute bottom we grew up around the knife crime and the robberies and we've been arrested and all this garbage before so if they expected us to be pushovers or weaklings they learned very quickly that's not the case and if somebody said can I have cigarettes sometimes I would say sure can I have cigarettes no sorry I'm not going to say no because I'm running out and I need to do more cuz that's weakness for the same reason in my relationship I won't I don't like explaining myself to my girlfriend don't do that why cuz I said no I'm not going to sit here and talk to why cuz I said no that's the answer no I won't explain myself to my children I won't explain myself to my staff do this okay I don't sit there and giv reasons for that's a habit I learned from my dad it offends me I don't have to give my reasons so a guy came up and said oh can I have this no sorry and then I just stand there and say do you going to do something about it I'm standing right here and what can he say if I give him a bunch of excuses that he could say oh brother please if I just say no sorry then it's either a fight or it's not and it looks like they didn't want to fight so were you ever attempted to hustle with your commentary do double bubble that kind of thing I was trying to get gym time the first week I couldn't go to the gym so I was like who do I need to give cigarettes to to go to the gym and it only it took me a full week to realize there is no gym there is nowhere to go I'm not leaving this room which kind of upset me cuz I bought extra ra cigarettes you know you're like okay cigarettes are the currency so let me buy as many cigarettes as possible and see if I can get like gym time or something but no there was nowhere to go there was nothing to do uh there was not not much I could do with it besides just be generous and I was I was being as generous as I could because that's who I am as a person anyway a couple people I believe tried to take the piss and I just made it very clear to them you shouldn't have done that no I'm not giving you anything anymore could you be more specific how did they try and take the piss well I think I think when you go to Romanian jail and you've been there for a long time and you've been trying to get cigarettes at people for years and most of them never have cigarettes and then Rich foreigners come and you ask for a cigarette and you get a pack and then you've been around the system long enough perhaps to understand that eventually we will leave and they're never going to leave I guess they kind of view it as make hay while the sunshines so they just start smoking a pack in an hour and asked for another pack so where's the last ones like I smoked them all no you didn't he go look I smoked them all and then I'd give him another pack of cigarettes and observe and watch him literally chain smoke them all he thinks he can get unlimited cigarettes for this period of time like his his grace has come for these few months cigarettes are free so and eventually I'd say no my friend if I give you cigarettes you're going have to make them last I'm not giving you anymore and uh I like to think that firm line can be held in most things in life I I I guess if I were to ask myself why I acted that way in jail just like I alluded to earlier is how I act in life if I say to my girlfriend no and she goes well I'm going to do it anyway I've said no I'm going to do it anyway then we're going to break up if I say to a man no and he makes a big deal of it then he can fight me like it is what it is the answer is no and I'm not going to tell you why I just said no I'm a full man the answer is no and it's mine it's mine my brother had a saying in jail which was for some reason kept making me laugh things are funny in jail that aren't funny on the outside but it was funny he'd slick his hair back he'd get a cigarette he'd smoke it and goes let him try cuz I said to him about some guy kept asking for cigarettes he goes let him try I'm a tough guy like what does that mean he goes you know like the movies I'm a [ __ ] tough guy like the movies I'll body slam him I'm a [ __ ] tough guy for some reason it was funny but I guess that's just our attitude we weren't there to be bullied by anybody and uh very quickly people treated us with respect and I was very respectful to people but also there was times I bumped into a guy in the hallway and from my understanding he's he was in jail for beating someone with a hammer some old man with a hammer he beat him to death or something and I bumped into him and I said sorry and he didn't reply and the guards were walking us I said brother brother I said sorry to you and he goes oh sorry I made a killer apologize to me now why did I do that because I said sorry to you and you just ignored me now I have no idea he might have gone back to his cell and say I bumped into Tate he said sorry the fact I made him apologize to me you don't know how the repercussion spread in a place like jail that might have been enough for him to go and go you know what those Tape Brothers don't you don't know and I don't think I was being unfair I wasn't being aggressive I wasn't trying to start a fight but he bumped into me effectively in fact I didn't even do anything wrong he bumped into me and I said sorry so you better say it back sir and I feel like if you approach life that way you'll be okay yeah people don't understand how combustible it is like you could be walking past someone they say what are you looking at looking at nothing you calling me nothing yeah next thing bam and and that's one thing that actually I think prisons of course I say I think I'm sure I know I know prisons are different all around the world and I feel like an American jail perhaps in many ways would be more violent than a Romanian jail the it didn't feel violent it felt sad I don't know how to explain it it didn't feel like a violent place there was the capability of many to be violent and there certainly was tinges of violence in the air sometimes but it felt sad that's how it felt I imagine an American jail will be different because I think to even be violent requires a degree it's a high energy expenditure if you're with your friends and you're with your gang and you're out on the yard and you're talking and you're laughing and there there's enough in you but if you're just locked in a room all day every day in the dark with the roaches and you get to bump past the prisoner for a few seconds every 4 days like are you really going to use that chance to get the kicked out you by guards really everyone was depressed everyone was chronically depressed so I felt like in a lot of ways that kept a lot of the violence under control if that makes sense yeah how many days did it take for you to settle down into a routine that's a very good question CU now I think about it and when I just went back yesterday it was probably my worst day in jail of I've ever had it was worse than the 3 months because the 3 months I had a routine I had a system I was very busy in jail I I found a way to be busy all day every day I didn't have any spare time there'd be days in jail I'd wake up and I'd start my things whatever and I'd check the time and be like I'm late like like like I had things to do if I had to go to court that morning and they messed up my schedule I was in a very bad mood especially when they rejected me like why take me to court to reject me just let me do my things so I think within two or three weeks I had a schedule i' I'd be up around the same time and we'd get our hot water at a certain time and I'd begin my training at a certain time and there'd be a particular show on that I understood at a certain time which would burn 30 minutes and I'd watch that and then I'd do my other training after that and I'd have to do a th000 push-ups a day and then I'd clean the toilet and then I'd sweep the whole floor and then we'd go for killing bugs and but we had a system this last day I was in jail I was thrown in a cell with these three men I didn't know and it was their room it's like walking into someone else's house right it's their room it's their system it's their setup they they they went to bed at 700 p.m. these people they turned off the TV and hit the lights and everything by 7:00 p.m. they went to sleep my system me and my brother would be up till 2:3 in the morning so 7 p.m. lights out boom quiet these three guys are trying to sleep and you're just sitting there staring at the ceiling so it was much worse to be thrusted into somebody else's ecosystem but when I was in jail for the 3 months after about a month my brother and I had a pretty firm system set out and uh yeah hot water would come at a certain time and I'd get it on Mondays and he'd get it on Tuesdays cuz it was 6:00 a.m. and we'd sleep past that so we'd who'd have to get up to get the water and who made the coffee and the room was immaculate lit and how the cigarettes were stacked and how certain things went in certain places and who did the washing up within a month we had a very system I I I didn't have any spare time in jail I was very busy if that makes sense did you have just enough uh floor space to do push-ups on literally I could literally do push-ups and maybe stick my arm out but then I touch the wall that was it and I do a th push-ups a day what of excises did you do in sets of 50 I do 300 I started with 400 but I ended up I admit going down to 300 squats every single day and then if there was a good TV show on I would sit with six 2 L bottles of water which is 12 kilos around 28 LBS or something and I'd sit and lift it over my head back forth back forth back forth while watching TV on a little plastic chair and then about a month and a half in the leg to my plastic chair broke and then yeah which which was was very upsetting and there was no other chairs in the jail so I got a bed sheet and I I made the sheet into kind of like a rope and put it around all four legs to keep it together and and fix this chair and that held out for about 4 days and then someone killed themselves so they bust into my cell and found the sheet and said ah you're going to hang yourself I said no I'm fixing my chair so they took the sheet and left me with a three-legged chair so that kind of destroyed that so I had from then on out I had to do that exact exercise but standing up and and I would I would just basically train all day uh I would train all day and clean all day and uh I guess you you become pedantic about certain things because you have time so you know i' I'd pour coffee in a certain way and i' I'd wait a few minutes and I'd look at the cup and wait for it to cool down and then I'd consciously enjoy the coffee as opposed to just famous it like you normally do and consciously have a cigarette you become more conscious in the outside world you have a cigarette while you're doing everything else but in jail you have a cigarette you're having a cigarette that's what you're doing that's it so what did you say then the things that you took for granted before that arrest you started to develop a whole new appreciation of them because you know like sleep food quality these things you lose them and you realize how good you had it yes but it's also amazing how ungrateful the human mind is because you soon slip back into not respecting it anymore true or false absolutely yeah you're the day I got out I walked down with this High Street eating a banana like I was high on thinking I'm a free man I can just buy eat a banana didn't a few months but and then it goes yeah it's like you get out of jail and you're like I can do anything and then a few months in you're like ah man and it's amazing how ungrateful you are as a person like inside of us because hedonistic adaptation is a thing and I there were things there were promises I made to myself in jail about phone usage and you know certain things that you soon slip back into your normal habits of just being on your phone all the time and working all the time Etc
