Chapter 1: What challenges do ex-cons face in the media?
I feel at a disadvantage. You guys are both on the America's Most Wanted list.
Thank goodness I never made it. I knew when your channel was taken down because all of a sudden I started getting these comments in the comment session. Bro, what's going on with Brett Johnson? I was like, I don't know. Did he get arrested again? You'll hire some guy that will hire someone from India to do it. And then the, not that they're not wonderful people. You felt the need to say that.
Because I'm scared. I've interviewed some guys that I thought weren't going to make it. Hey, this is Matt Cox, and I am here with Brett Johnson. I'm here with Wade Williams. Wade hosts and runs the YouTube channel Crime and Entertainment, which I always think of as someone who focuses on mob-related crime stories.
Unfortunately, my wife feels – she thinks of Wade as the guy that interviews porn stars. Yeah. which is funny because i don't i i always say every time i turn it on it's always like it's always um uh mob guys anyway and i need to subscribe Brett Johnson. Brett Johnson is, what is Boziak always called? What do they call you? The godfather of cybercrime.
Chapter 2: What led Brett Johnson to be on America's Most Wanted list?
That's what they say.
Okay. The godfather of cybercrime. He was number one on the Secret Service's most wanted list. He was on the run multiple times. Do you escape, what, one time? I escaped from prison, yeah.
I got that on the record, too.
and um yeah currently the he runs the youtube channel uh brett is just brett johnson no brett johnson show brett johnson show and the reason you don't know it is because no one watches it well we're working on that we're working on that well you also got it taken down i did i did you know
Shouldn't be talking about prostitutes. I should be interviewing porn stars, evidently.
Yes, that's a big difference. They get upset when you confuse the two.
I knew when your channel was taken down because all of a sudden I started getting these comments in the comment section. Bro, what's going on with Brett Johnson? I was like, I don't know.
Did he get arrested again?
Yeah, what happened? And then after a week, I finally checked. I was like, why does everybody keep saying that? So I checked and your channel was just gone. Yeah, they do that.

Chapter 3: How do YouTube algorithms affect content creators?
And I'm like, fuck it. Do it anyway. And I mean, he lit up. He did that. And I assume that that is going to get me in trouble at some point. I was just thinking, why?
Why not? I just started this channel. Exactly. If it had 50,000 subscribers. Sure. But I could start another one.
And obviously, we're not Joe Rogan. But I mean, Rogan used to get higher all the time when he was doing his stuff on YouTube.
He got high all the time. And Spotify doesn't seem to care what you do on there. But YouTube absolutely does. Yeah.
Um, I had, I don't know if you guys are wrestling fans or familiar with the wrestling, but there was a wrestler called the Godfather back in like the, the attitude era, you know, early nineties, mid nineties. And his gimmick was, he was like a, I guess a pimp. He would come out with the girls and all that. And like his little taglines would be like, roll a fatty for this pimp daddy and all that.
Well, he's since retired, but he's a very cool guy. And I had him on the show and he's a huge advocate for, you know, we CBD everything and all through like the episode, he would just, you know, light up and take a pop, but that's what he does on his Instagram account and all the time. And they let that go.
So I've never, I've never told anybody not to get too descriptive on that, but kind of like what Matt was talking about. I had an episode with Ignacio Esteban and we started doing serial killer. We were going to do like one a month and just highlight a serial killer. And we'd done a guy named Albert fish and, And some of the things, like, I don't even want to even get close.
Is that Albert fish?
No, no. He was like an older guy. He done unspeakable things to people.
