Do you agree with that? Oh, dude, one, thank you, yeah. I mean, that's what I hope to represent more than anything, right? Is that, because I don't think I just stand for like criminal second chances. Like I think I became a voice for like all second chances.

I think the kind of the real, the turning point for me, so to speak, or like what I thought really did it all for me, as cliche as it sounds, was I had my daughter when I was incarcerated. Oh, wow. And I don't know why. I do know why. I used to say I don't know why, but it's obvious. I never, it was the most honest accountability and self-reflection moment of my life.

You know, I had to really sit down and do an assessment of, I was fixing, I just got the news, a guard knocks on my door to tell me my daughter was born. He doesn't know her name. He has no information. And I am just sitting there like... realizing I'm worth like, I know this sounds funny, it's jail terms, but in jail you get commissary, you know?

And I had like maybe 20 Raymond soups, 10 honey buns, a couple of packs of Skittles. Like I, this is what I had to my name. I had the one pair of clothes that I was incarcerated in. I had zero money. In fact, I was in debt. I owed restitution to my victim. I owed the courts, you know what I mean? Like I'm in debt.

I'm worth, and the biggest thing I'm the most proud of in life is that I run the poker table and have like 30 soups. You know what I mean? And I was like, as a father, I should be proud of my daughter. You know what I mean? The thing I'm the most prideful about in my whole life is that I've got myself get to such a low point in life that I'm proud of having ramen noodle soups in prison.
