We're Out of Time · Rock Bottom to HGTV: Izzy Battres' Journey of Faith and Redemption · 13 May 2025 podcast

Right. Cliffside. Right. And he's just opened up. Is it Carrera? Yeah. Yeah. So that's not what I'm most proud of. I know, but you're still, you're still helping you. I've read you helped over 10,000 families. Yeah. And those people I've never been able to reach because I, you know, but you've been able to reach. Right. Yeah.

And so I felt like this is a good way to tell my story and to just share it. Now, you're asking me questions that I didn't think I was going to share, like the jail and all that. And I think it's good.

And I think I still see things. Yeah. A little bit, a little, little once in a while. Yeah. And I'm still paranoid.

I still, I don't, I close the windows when I'm sitting in front of my living room. I still check the door when I'm at a restaurant. I don't, you know, I just.

Apparently, I didn't know people were, well, people are, you know, people are people, right? People are people and people are always going to want to see the bad in other people. You know, hurt people hurt people. You've heard it said, right? And so usually it's the hurt people that are having a problem. They're hurt. They want to hurt others. That's the way it usually goes.

And with Tariq and Christina, when I first worked with them on Flip or Flop on HGTV, I knew they were always good. You know, they want to do things, but they're young. Money comes, fame comes. You make bad decisions. You learn from those decisions and you find out what's the true meaning of it all. And at the end, it's family. They made a whole TV show about it too. What TV show? The flip off.

The new one. Tell me. So they got good at what they're doing and they designed Flip Homes. They made the TV show The Flip Off. And there you could actually see some of the true rawness of what their relationships are and running a business and co-parenting. Really? Yeah.

Who's that guy in the show? So you remind me a lot about a lot of Tariq. I do. Yeah. Some of your manner is- Is he handsome? So handsome. Right? He's just like fast. Okay. Right? Fast, makes decisions and thinks about the decisions later if they were good or not. Right. Well, they're his decisions. Yeah. They're his mistakes to make. Yeah. Yeah. So I would say Tariq's always going to be that guy.

Uh-huh. Yeah. You don't know what you're going to get from him. So that's it. And his ex-wife, she's great? Christina's great. Christina's great? Yeah, I was out at her house the last week and people are always evolving.

I'm asking. Oh, I wouldn't know that. I wouldn't. Well, they're on the show. Oh, you're saying Tariq. I'm saying. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. He's already married. He has already got another.

You know, people have a hard time being alone sometimes. Right. You know, I mean, people have a hard time being alone sometimes. I am very grateful for their friendship. You know, when HGTV gave me my own show, Izzy Does It. It has the best name of a show ever, by the way.

The name Izzy? Eric Wright, Eazy-E. Does it really? Yeah. NWA. Really?

Flip and Flop. Okay. Flip or Flop.

Like, what does that feel like? I don't think I'm famous. See, I, you know, HGTV is a great channel. Like when I think of fame, I think of Kelsey's old lady, Travis Kelsey.

So that's what I think fame is. Right. Right. You know, people that like, that's what I consider fame, like a list kind of cats.

Yeah. That's what, when I think of fame, that's what I think of. Right. I think of big personalities and you, you go anywhere in the world and people will know who you are. Right. You know, Izzy Bachelors are like, who are you? Did you do my landscape? Where do I know you from?

What's the show called? It's Izzy Does It. Izzy Does It. Izzy Does It. That's how we do it. Izzy Does It and family? Izzy Does It. Yeah. It's a family. Like Sanford and Sons? It has a little bit of a hood in it. Yeah. Does it really? Yeah. Yeah. It tells about it. The pilot talks a little bit about my background. Uh-huh. Yeah. And then HGTV shares a little bit about my background.

No, they started off with introducing my dad and how he raised his boys and built a family business. And then now I'm continuing that legacy. And you're teaching the kids how to do it. And now we're teaching the kids how to do it. And we're designing and building homes.

You're exactly dead on on that because I had four other people before her. Uh-huh. And they could not, they just didn't have the heart and the culture of the company. And when she came on, she blew it up. You know, she just blew it up.

It's just, it's just perfect. And, and she is not just going to, she's not just a yes person. You know, you hire other people. Sometimes they're just yes people. Right. But she knows how to, you know, put me in line as well. Right. And I'm going to receive it from her. She'll say, that's not a good idea because.
