In twelve hours I’ll hear a great story from a gifted storyteller

Being broke sucks and is really discouraging sometimes, but knowing other people are struggling or have struggled is very encouraging. Love ya videos man keep it up.

I’m glad you persevered. You’re building your empire and it’s inspiring.🙏🏽

Man these story times NEVER disappoint.

Went to Amsterdam, bought a hoodie with a picture of weed on it, dad said that if he ever catches me smoking weed he’ll write me out of his will

Your come up is pure inspiration bro! You broke barriers your way and staying true to yourself. That's why you're a role model to me and 1000s of other people. Thank you for everything dude 🙏

Just wish they’d push this channel out like they do adventures of yola channel… love watchin you grow into what you are now Thomas we’re all so proud of you and your channels/business. You’re the realest on this app I’ve said once and I’ll say it always. I hope you know it too, you deserve everything you have now + some..❤

crazy how yola literally remembers his entire life, and as he tells stories he remembers more things and he’s slowly telling his entire life

this storytime felt different then the others, in a good way it was pretty educating

It’s crazy how this man can detail his childhood in such good detail and so many people can be like “damn I really understand this man and this was me back in the day” the storytelling is just perfect. Good Job Thomas 🤝🤝

Yola you’ve always been so relatable. I’m just a random dude and after every episode I feel like I’m smoking with a homie. You got something special dawg. 🐐

Can’t wait to watch! Remember everyone being broke is a mindset 😶‍🌫️ keep on y’all’s grind and get that bag.

You have inspired me to grow as a person every single upload. Whether it's the podcast, your adventures, this one, or even your company page, you make me get up off my ass and be an advocate for myself. I am also a firm believer in manifesting your own destiny and that good comes to those that do good. Let's all grow stronger as a community!

Lately I've been going through a lot and I just want to say thank you so much for posting your content. Your content and your story really makes me feel like I'm not alone and that I can keep going with life. Thank you man much love and respect for you brother 🫡

this shit hit me hard man, im 19 i gotta little channel going but i became depressed and i got a whole bunch of stomach issues, in and out of the hospital and on top of all of that my grandmother just got diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. this cant get any worse. im gonna keep watching your videos because you've helped me hearing similar situations ive been in. keep it up yola i love you man

I needed that motivatinal speach ive been in a rutt for about a year still tryna to get out the mud youve helped me alot over the past few years keep up the good work my guy

Thomas, you honestly feel like my best friend, every vid u post, i drop my plans and roll up and watch your content, ur the man dude!!!

Im 18, working my ass off with the business im growing. making decent money. went sober from weed. this content is that. best replacement. will eventually get back into puffin but i got other priorities. THANKYOU

me right now, working at two mechanic shops and still cant make rent and eat food(or even buy weed). literally dropped 20 lbs in the last two months cuz i cant afford to buy enough food. it sucks and i work my ass off, i know im not the smartest person but im far from lazy. im dedicated and clean with my work and im very proud of what i do but im left with about 50-100 dollars after paying rent and it feels like im doing everything i can and cant enjoy one aspect in life. i know noone really cares about someone rambling about their life, and i dont want pitty. just getting frustration with life out in these comments a year after the video was released. love the content yola, you're part of my daily routine and have been for years. you're one of the reasons i wake up in the mornings :)

Cant wait for this one! Story times are the reason I got hooked on all your channels for the past I don't even know like 2+ years now!! Time flies😅😂

its like you are giving me the blueprints to life I appreciate you man

its crazy how I live half a world away and I could still relate to the part where you talked about not wanting to accept help as a grown up because you were always on your own as a kid. Much love to you Thomas. You're one of most inspiring people I know not just because you made it but also the fact that I can relate to your past and have some hope about my own future.

Thomas if your reading this man, I’ve been a long time sub, don’t rlly comment much but dude I’ve honestly learned so much between your podcasts and storytimes, I live on the opposite side of the country but i hope to meet you one day, keep up the good work! Stay 💨😵‍💫

Yo yola I can’t explain how much I love and appreciate story times it’s the highlight of my day.

bro its so crazy how you can remember all this shit from the past and make a positive outcome on what happen so blessed

Really needed this. Going through it financially and just hearing it will pass helped a bit.

My dad always tells me times will always get dark but you gotta keep your head up to see the brighter days ahead. I love your content yola our lives aren’t the same but they are very similar and you’ve helped inspire me to be the best version of myself and I’m forever grateful ❤

You can hear the level of tension in the choices he made in the past is crazy it awesome the payoff of your hard work and risk taking

I have so much respect for people like you fr. You don’t ask for nothing and get it on your own. You got an amazing woman for sticking with you also. You’re a blessed man from the start. Wish you all nothing but success. Also by story 4 you were zooted as fuck 😂

I'm going through it rn and this really really helped me. Thank you Thomas for being someone to look up to and for being relatable

Thanks Thomas for making me remember my roots and to always respect them. Buying anything thing I want is a privileged I earned but never too often I think about the broke days. Thank you for the story time. Keep up the grind man!

My fiancé and me have been “stuck” and our hard work might be paying off soon!! You can do it!! Words of wisdom man. Keep it up you rock.

I found you years ago while camping, and I’m going camping today and listening to this 🙏 Been loving the content dude

Rosie really deserves so much credit for the entire thing man, she was riding with you the entire way never switching up

Smiled so big when you said you turned around seeing the jacket and he was there . Can’t wait to be a parent for those type of hugs and experiences

"Weed messes with your memory” Thomas:Hold my joint

I don't have a question but I've been watching your videos for a while now it's amazing how far you've come. I love the content keep doing your thing!!!

Your Grandma instilling that hustling life is one of the best things that could happen to you probably, you may not have been here today without that, that instills a great mindset for success in the future, my Nana does that with my younger cousins as she did with me, 5 dollars to take the trash out, stuff like that.

The 3rd story was the absolute best ! I wish you could shout this story to every kid in this country. They need to hear that you CAN achieve your dreams , no matter what you have been through or are going through. Just make up your mind, grab that dream by the tail and work work work ! Go for it ! It is worth every hungry night, sleepless night, painful days, etc. It is worth it because you did it , whether you had a few hands helping you or not. Don’t give up and never let naysayers drag you down ! There will always be some of those too. They just want to pour cold water on you because they’re afraid you’ll succeed. You will pass them by. I love that you have a kind heart too. That makes a world of difference. Anyone can be a mean jerk and make it, but when a kind soul makes it, it makes me all warm and fuzzy feeling because it just proves, the world could be a better place if people would just be kinder to others. America used to be like that. People had respect for each other, kindness ruled over hate, and people weren’t so darn judgmental! I wish we could go back to that time ! Sorry for the book here , but I enjoyed these ! 25:14

i started watching about a year ago and i have watched every video and i never knew how much i could relate to a random dude online about life and knowing that u have came from the ground up

I dropped a tear @26:00 I needed to hear that bro it’s not easy when u first move out and making big money decisions on your own and your not gonna do everything right I’m still learning it just feels good to know I’m not alone fr

I’m 17 and down bad on my ass I pray that I can live like u in the future. never stop making vids🙏🏽

I swear Thomas your videos like this always come around when I need them the most. Nothing but love n appreciation keep up the hard work

He doesn’t make any money off of these videos but make them for us to enjoy. W video, W story, W life. We love and appreciate you bro

This is exactly what I needed, seeing people similar to me in the same position that still made it!! Thank you yola and i know people may laugh but fuck it, I want to be one of the rare black billionaires and make 100 millionaires before I die.

Hey Thomas, new-ish fan here, found you through goblin. Just gotta say that you have absolutely affected my life in a super positive way. You and Marty really helped me get over myself and really think outside the box. You're absolutely right when you said to not call life unfair. I have been an absolute brat and child recently when it comes to my life and decisions. I can see your determination and will power through your videos and it is very inspiring to me to try and better my own life and motivate myself to get off my lazy ass and make a fucking difference. Just wanted to say I really appreciate your place on this platform and earth. Keep the pimp shit up man. You guys deserve everything good to come your way! Josh from Reno, NV

Honestly think growing up like that helps you when you’re older. It’s helped me a lot saving money on shit I don’t need but want. Gotta get the important shit before you get what you want.

Thank you guys for everything you do. You guys really help me out. Just amazing. Keep it up and I hope Rosie is doing better and wish her a fast recovery. Thanks again Thomas.

I love how far story time has come brother, that Bruce Buffer intro goes so hard! Thank you for the dope videos!

The first story about your stepdad was so sweet

crazy to see how much love you have towards Rosie and her have towards you. relationship goals really

I've been binge watching your story times videos for like a week now and seeing a new one comes out made my day. Get it boi! >:)

I feel stuck rn bitness been slow but we gonna get it 💪

It’s the keep smiling at the haters mentality that I believe gets you through shit and strive! I promise if you shrug it off and try again and smile when you succeed it just gets better from there. I love how you help so many with these story times. Much love and have a dope ass day!!

My grandpa is slowly dying from cancer right now and your videos are the only thing keeping me from being depressed so thank you

Dope as yola is like therapy like my guys voice is so calming and peaceful and a fire storyteller

This one hits home for me! I'm still full on broke half the time.

“It’s not a bad thing, it’s reality” bars like that are why we love you buddy.

Happy Birthday brotha 💯 I was in the chat that night but thought I send you more blessings my guy! Glad you're never going broke ever again, keep grinding & Stay High Yola 🙏

Man this is so relatable I love it. I grew up poor poor because My dad was in the pin and my mom was a single parent raising two boys. My mom was a alcoholic for a long time but I wouldn't change my childhood for anything it taught me to grind it taught me to respect life and the things I have.

Man, I needed this video. I just went broke myself for the first time not too long ago and it's been getting to me. Thanks for the reminder to stay strong and just keep working hard

Every time I watch your videos it's like my passion for weed expands Glad to have someone represent us stoners in a positive light.

Me and him relate so much I've grown up poor my whole life but it's just a part of who I am and I feel like it's really made me stronger 💪

One of my biggest inspirations and one of the best storytellers I know. Keep up the great work man 💯

When you're young you're broke but as you get older the Hustler's Hustle and the people that know you just know keep trap and keep pushing always a great story time always a great show

We’ve all been there, and most of us will remain there. Money doesn’t define anything. Happiness comes from within and the ones around you.

Bro I swear your story’s are endless and are so entertaining. Keep doin what your doin

Loved the video my dude! I appreciate your message at the end about success. I'm leaving my job in 4 months. I've been there for 4 years and I'm just ready to move on. I did feel stuck but recently I've just been more motivated. Thanks again for your stories. Stay blessed bro 🙏🏾✊🏾💯

I love story times just as much as the next person. It's really awesome to see how much this channel has evolved and we as a community feel like Yola is the homie that we can all vibe with and even though it's video....its fucking great to feel like someone is actually there. Keep it up Thomas and also the rest of Team Yola!!! Have a dope ass day!!! *Bleep* 😂😂

Man I’m so glad I found your channel while you were smaller, watching you grow is such an amazing thing to see, I’m starting to become a heavier smoker and just getting High and watching your videos makes my day

I feel that so much bro... It was tough coming up, but mom tried her best with everything and through it all... I miss her

i used to always avoid school trips as a kid because i never wanted to make my parents pay for things like that. hearing u talk about not wanting to ask ur parents for shit reminded me of that. they would always ask if i wanted to go but i just told them i didnt want to, even though i wanted to really bad :(

great Storytime man! I have been binging you videos for weeeeks, Much love dude keep up the amazing content!

Really needed that little inspirational speech at the end rn. Just got a job at McDonald's on top of another one with no car, glad to hear it gets better
