Thanks for Having me!

This guy can talk for 12hrs straight nonstop.

Honestly crazy how a man like this is out walking free openly admitting to comitting murders while others rot in prison for possession of weed

Half hour run on sentence

I remember a philosophy teacher telling me: only the good will matters.  You can have any other virtue.  You can be honest, creative, precise, organized, patient, charismatic, etc.  Without good will, those things just make you all the more evil.  This guy reminded me of that.  He has many virtues, but only started wanting to be good very late.  I’m glad he’s turning it around.

I am the softest bleeding heart you'll ever find, but when I hear about this guy killing and maiming innocent people who were just going to work, I really don't give a shit that he has PTSD. I have zero sympathy. It's one thing to beat up some guy who's in the racket, but it's another thing entirely when a guy who needs to pay the rent goes to work and gets shot by some tough guy yokel. Fuck that. .

This guys stories get bigger and grander in every interview he does.

I'd love a follow up interview with John. I feel like he has so much more to share.

Credit to Mark for being able to handle what must have been industrial strength levels of cheap cologne, coming at him in waves from this self-aggrandizing gindaloon.

"I love myself more than I hate that guy." Words to live by

After working 30 years in Mental Health at a VA hospital...this is a master class in both PTSD and Psychiatry. He is spot on.

john has his own podcast now, with a young fellow named felix.  they call themselves the odd couple, and it's really good.  it's pretty amazing to see his journey that has brought him to this juncture, and I hope he finds peace someday.  as bad as he was, he is doing good now, and he will tell you he never hurt somebody who didn't deserve it, but that's in the eye of the beholder

Mobster interviews are always a hit!

He talked the whole time and holds your attention effortless, amazing

Soft white underbelly is stepping up their game! Thanks for another great mob interview.

When he spoke on normalizing pain it reminded me of all the Working Girls who soldier on nightly despite Physical, Psychological, Emotional pain. They learn pain, beatings, blood are just par for the course.

marka laita will be getting some sort of award or recognition when this is all said and done . Because mark laita is a leader , hes doing what he can in society to give people a platform to share and air their trauma , societal grievances , and overall pain . This channel helps me every single day . Leaders listen more than they speak . Leaders have compassion and empathy . And leaders dont judge or pin stereotypes on people . Leaders have been through pain , and know the importance of simply conversing about it . im on some hard times right now and sold my tv so i can by my good friend a baby shower gift . fuck my tv . my friend will remmeber my generosity forever because to me , selling my tv , to commemorate an important part of his life , is priceless. ill be back on track soon ya'll.

Great talk! This was the fastest 33 min. & 40 sec. on the internet. Thank you.

John is a story teller. This guy needs a book and film NOW.

Fantastic description of how your life catches up to you. To those thinking this guy is lying, he’s not. The life you lead will catch up to you mentally. We create our own demons. Life is what you make it.
