Fair play to him turned his life around never too late for anyone
James is such an amazing person. He always speaks about his own past with extreme honesty and openness, his recovery journey is so inspirational and now he spends all his spare time paying it forward to help the addicted community and their families. Legend.
Great man James. HUGE respect for him.
I love The Two Norries, the lads are doing phenomenal.
james has a powerful message and i hope a lot of folks who need to hear it, hear what he has to say. thank you james for sharing your message.
Great episode, very honest. The message at the end regarding tough love and not enabling the addict is so important.
Onwards and upwards,best of luck James. I hope you are doing well 😊
Kilkenny is rampant with it, people are like zombies going around the place. It's heartbreaking 💔
James is an absolute inspiration
I'm in this place with my son 😢
Well done James

Well done James 👍
A very inspirational man. Well done.
Great interview just shows that where there is life there is hope.
Class interview lads
Know what just brilliant on both sides did see him and really love to see the under dog rise to the top well done
brilliant interview!!!
excellent listening
Good Craic bhoyos, keep it up
well - that is amazing - that lad is a hero and should be doing "secondary school" no two ways bout it. fair play to his girlfriend, she clearly pushed him forward. thats a wow story and absolutely honest. Sad that lads are at home in prison but with a bed and three meals, gym and skool - that seems to be the way for poorer communities...
Great interview 👍
What a fuckin interview boys
top interview lads good stuff
Just 👏...
Good guest 👍
Ye should get Philly Mcmahon on your podcast
Wow
23:30
i dunno i played Vincent's a few times hahah fair few slaps ..never knew this lad i came to cork homeless services too late but people only say good things about james ..im still in addiction myself and sadly the same as james
Hopefully the interview made you think that it will get better and you can have hope that you can do better things.👍
@@GAAShorts its a lot more complex than just hearing an interview the sad thing is once you are on that needle no pleasure will ever live up to that again ...i have with methadone cut down to about 2 times a week and my goal is to cut that to once a month and so on but its hard..my big problem like him were xanex etc and i cut them out completely they are charge sheets he was completely on the ball that is the term many people use for them anyway thanks for your comment means a lot
@@liamcronin8110 ye, I don’t know much about all that stuff but I understand what you mean. But what I’m saying is he is a good example that you will get through it if you try and i just thought that I would leave a comment wishing you good luck. :)
@@GAAShorts I appreciate your genuine offer of support. I think what the other lad is saying is how complex addiction is. I'm in recovery for over 20 yrs but can honestly say I don't know why I was able to stop when I did.
@@DONAL914 respect and best wishes ....Hopefully Liam will make it through soon and escape from the addiction..... best of luck 🤞
Haha we all know that "gp" in that certain area of cork all the addicts used to go to that "gp"
