Guy Ritchie is like a character in a Guy Ritchie movie.

"Don't hate the game, love the game because you're in it, mate." This is awesome.

This changed my life. H addict. 5 yrs sober. THIS SAVED ME. Everyone has their path. This is part of mine.

This is the only skit from JRE I return back to year after year, the best piece of philosophy I’ve ever come across.

Lesson learned: Own everything Even my mistakes Dont pretend

This guy has crazy verbal fluency

If you properly absorb what he's saying here - you can disregard every 'self help' book ever written for the rest of your life. This is all the advice you'll ever need. Beautifully articulated.

The way Guy broke down the story of The Prodigal Son just hit me so hard that I literally had to sit down in the middle of working and process it within myself.

Channelling his inner Brent: 'Don't hate the player hate the game? Don't hate the game, because you're in it mate... love the game.'

You ever notice how people who been successful in life are always philosophers at heart. They always gain this wisdom along their journey. Maybe thats the real gift of sucess, Not the money or the fame but the wisdom and life lessons.

As a Joseph Campbell student… Guy Ritchie does the tribal way of personal development. Intead of telling you how to be a master, he shows you through storytelling and symbolism. King Arthur spoke to me. After the movie I ended up cleaning my room 😅

"Made by a chap called Brunello, knows what he's doing." - Classic Guy Ritchie dialogue

I always find it interesting when Americans and Englishmen interact in a conversation.

*There is always someone who is ready to control your life, your education, your income, and your thinking.*

I've watched Guy Ritchie Movies my whole life - first time watching an interview with him and just realized he is the character from every movie - this guy is a legend haha

In one and half years listening to Joe and his guests I’ve learned more useful and interesting things that are relevant to my life-than I ever learned in 12 years of schooling and 3 years at university.

"Play the game. Never let the game play you." -Tupac Shakur.

Guy is very deep and insightful but practical at the same time. He's a thinker and a doer. Not easy to come by.

Would have been absolutely hilarious if Joe came back wearing a suit in the next episode.

"That's deep Guy Ritchie" Gonna start saying this anytime someone says something deep.

Like others, I come back to this every year and recommend this clip to people around me. Modern life is constant comparison which leads to anxiety about where you are and who you should be. This clip strips that away every single time. Pure gold.

For someone who left school at 15, Guy is a very intelligent man. He went into the world and found himself you could say. The world taught him what no text books at school could ever teach.

This guy’s literally my favorite movie director ever and yet I never really wanted to watch his interviews cause, you know, sometimes our favorite people disappoint..but not this one, such a deep conversation..so much to unpack

"When you rest, you are a king surveying your estate. Look at the woodland, the peacocks on the lawn. Be the king of your own calm kingdom"

Posting this here for myself for further reference: "If you don't own something, you're not the boss. You have to take full responsibility for everything that you do. Why be subservient? You must be the master of your own kingdom. You've got to own things - you can't just walk into things with your eyes half open, you've got to walk into things with your eyes fully open. You've got to know what you're getting into: you have to take possession of your own life. "There's a world out there trying to tell you who you are, and there's a world in here that's trying to tell you who you are. Now where do you want to put your eggs? - because the world outside is very noisy and very tempting, and it has all the razzmatazz and all the glitter; its got all the toys, but that's because you don't think you're enough in the first place. If you don't think you're enough in the first place, the whole idea of the world in order to sell you stuff is first of all they have to make you feel bad about yourself. "The expression 'don't hate the player, hate the game', well don't hate the game, love the game because you're in it mate. So, own the game, accept the rules and move on into the rules. "So the world will try and tell you who you are, and you have to tell yourself who you are."

Jesus Christ, Guy Ritchie just made sense of everything for me

I LOVE this guy...no pun intended. He’s just so cool. So brilliant and he’s a badass director who should have gotten an Oscar already

Guy Ritchie sounds like an intellectual Jason Statham

This is probably the most important interview on personal development Joe has ever put out. Save this to a playlist and watch it regularly to keep your mind on the right track. You have to be master of the own dominion you’re given for your dominion to experience expansion. To contrast the emphasis of the narrative, how are you supposed to help others become the masters of their own dominions, if you can’t discipline yourself?

The parable concludes with the father explaining that while the older son has always been present, and everything the father owns also belongs to the older son, because the younger son had returned, in a sense, from the dead, celebration was necessary.

“The younger son, being the wild, feral entity that he is” 😂😂😂

I really wish Joe would get Guy back on.. this podcast was fantastic

He's a director, so it's his business to explain things to a lot of people, from agents to studio executives to grips on set. He gets his point across no matter what. Just brilliant. And the way he gets Joe about his tee-shirt at 45, so good. Very bright and articulate.

Came here to hear about directing and got a beautiful message from Pastor Guy Ritchie. Dropping jewels!!!

My respect for Guy Ritchie increased ten fold

"Don't hate the game, because you're in the game." Great point.

I had tears in my eyes when he was talking about the part of what the essence of a story is and the meaning of the sword in the stone and pulling it out, every man is a king of his own inner kingdom , he puts it so beautifully into words and so fluently so amazing man, this guy is great.

Out of the hundreds of snippets from this podcast I’ve watched, this is by far the most significant and enlightening to me. Thank you

This is Joe Rogan at his very best. Challenging, in a playful way, engaged.... and then a genuine fascination in his guest with an ability to laugh at himself.........I love his "I've never really thought about that until this conversation......"

He just called Rogan a geezer for dressing like a teenager and it was just some real shit right there.

I was always blown away with Guy Richie's movies but never heard a word from him personally. Now it all makes sense, this man understands life deeply, and dearly.

Sometimes I come back to this video to experience Guy's wisdom once again.

Damn Guy Ritchie!!! That interpretation of The Prodigal Son, had me in stitches and in deep reflection. Oufff, where can I find me a man like him!?

Jesus this man is an absolute legend!!! I'd love a new film from him especially in these times....

Rogan low key insulted Guy's suit and pocket square. Then guy points out how Rogan dresses like a toddler. Rogan had it coming. much respect to Guy for being one of the few guest who stands his ground when Joe feels like being petty.

Damn just turned 30 this year and I'm realizing that throughout my 20s I wasn't the master of my kingdom I would walk into situations with my eyes halfway open... Definitely awakening now glad I'm on the right track

Best interview Joe has ever done, I like how he kept him on his toes though out almost taking control of the interview.

Man this guy is brilliant, glad I live in a time where I can tune in and listen to him so easily.

The twist in story on the prodigal son is deeeply profound

That losing yourself aspect hit home. Definitely lost myself during parts of college and a year afterwards. Finally came back to base, with a lot more experience and respect for myself

Every time I watch this clip my eyes start to water, tears of realization. "You must be the master of your own kingdom" words every young man need to hear growing up, so that they know they are enough.

This is why Guy Richie is one of my fav 3 directors of all time, I watch your movies for the soul of them, they are deep and have a much more powerful meaning than meets the eye.

Brilliant and true. We decide who we are, no one else can make that assessment for us. Understanding this reality is the key to living vs existing.

"You can glean what you can glean, when you're ready to glean what you're ready to glean" I think I just popped something in my brain! Damnnnn

This video speaks to me on a level I've never felt before.

I grew up watching Guy Ritchie films and that is probably one of the best things of my youth.

This guy is super awake.

"because we're so busy, pandering after the approval of others"

Watching Guy spin his web fascinates me deeply. Always four steps ahead and most don't even realize he's one step ahead. Big fan.

What a fascinating chap. Love this conversation. His movies are some of the most entertaining pieces of art in existence.

What Guy here is “owning” is his aristocratic heritage. He does so in a rebellious way, which gives it an edge. It’s rebellious because lots of people from Guy’s background would try and hide from their roots, see Prince Harry for instance. In Guy’s case instead of being ashamed of his aristocratic family background he decided to “own” it and be proud of it. Wearing suits constantly allows him to play this character that he’s embraced. It’s partly him playing the hand he was dealt, and partly him creating a character that is a reflection of how he feels, and sees himself. I’d say good on Guy for being himself and going against the grain. I would say that Joe has his own sense of style...his own armor that he’s created for himself, and he has also done so successfully. Ironically Guy here is more of a rebel for wearing a suit than Joe is for being covered in tattoos...but I think that simply speaks to the current cultural trends more so than Joe’s character.

Guy Ritchie have so much verbal game, that he married Maddona being a poor man, and got millions for divorcing her..... he is a real life jedi master friends hope we get to listen to him again on JRE, this guy is a MASTER Mason.

Guy Ritchie simply tears apart the illusion of the outer world.

"You're a 45 year old geezer and you're dressed like an 18 year old" Lmao, Guy roasted Joe mang..

yeah yeah thats great Guy but are we ever getting rocka rolla 2

"Welcome to the layer cake, Joe."

Love.this.clip. This explanation I have come back to over several years, the deeper my development the more truth shines through it. Thank you.

Guy Ritchie and Naval Ravikant are my favorite guests on the JRE👍🏾💪🏿🙏🏿

Guy: Did you read this book Extreme Ownership? Joe: I had him on podcast Guy explains Joe: This is a very solid concept. Is it somewhere written down?

“There’s a world out there trying tell you who you are and there’s a world IN HERE that’s trying tell you who YOU are”

Wow! I've written fiction recreationally but it never really rang true. The external worlds I created were smart, or funny, or terrifying. But I never looked at the main character in terms of how Ritchie put it - the internal world and the external and how the character has to go out in the external world to learn and understand and appreciate their own inner world. Brilliant take on story.

One of the most important lessons anyone can learn. Finding out about yourself, learning from it, and then coming to the realisation that you were always good enough (but you just had to go out into the world and find out) is the greatest thing that can ever happen to anyone. Its the control of ego, and the ownership and acceptance of who you really are.

I was not expecting to get as much out this video as I did. Really good stuff from Guy Ritchie.

Wow, Guy Richie is a real man. So refreshing to see a film director who sees the importance of self-ownership. Ritchie gets it, life is worthless without self-responsibility and self-determination. Real men and women don't let LIFE tell them who they are. They personally determine their life values. They do not look to the media, nor the government, to guide their life principles. It's refreshing, to see him use a biblical parable to make his point. The father, like Jesus, loves His children regardless of their mistakes. He loves them because they are human, and worthy of love just because they exist, not because of what they DO. Like the father of the prodigal son, a self-determining person loves him or herself because he or she is worthy of self-love. They don't need the media or the government to give them a sense of worth, or acceptance. If they look within and accept themselves, they will be rich. Like Jesus, who prizes us as His treasures just because we ARE, the father forgives his son everything because the son has learned that looking outside for validation is a dead-end journey. The father, like Jesus, loved his son despite what his son did. Just because he was human. What Richie is getting at is that WE HAVE free will, and it is priceless when we use it responsibly - that is, to look within for our sense of worth. We throw our self-worth away when we, as Richie says, "pander" ourselves to others, when we look to others for our self-worth. For example, when we believe that if we align ourselves with "identity politics" we will have a sense of self. But this is self-delusional. When we look to "they" - the media, government - for approval and acceptance we lose. We lose because we give ownership away, we depend on "them" to give us a sense of worth. And they know it. That's how nice, honest young people end up being talked into setting fires to buildings and beating others, because they believe they will be accepted and approved by committing these acts. They fail to see that they are depending on others for approval when the only real acceptance of a person can come from within. When you trust and turn to yourself for approval and acceptance, YOU wear the big boy suit. The problem comes when, like the prodigal son, we look to others and to vices to provide it for us. But looking outside of ourselves for approval is a losing game. THAT'S what Guy Richie is talking about. We "win" the game only when WE play it. We "lose" the game when we look to others to tell us HOW to play it. Great clip, thank you for sharing it! 😀

Come back and watch this video every couple of months. Absolutely gold content

He must be wonderful to be around . He would bring out the best in a person . Sensible , smart and creative.

"That's Deep, Guy Ritchie"

I truly love the story of the Prodigal Son, because I'll never forget when I was a young child (~10yrs old) I could never ever wrap my head around its moral. Even though I've heard multiple priests explain it multiple times, I couldn't even come close to accepting why the hell the father chose to celebrate the delinquent son over the one who worked hard and followed the rules. Now, after growing up, falling victim to hedonism and fighting to find responsibility and my own purpose, it is clear as day to me and amazes me how your perspective can change from black to white as you grow up. Keep growing everyone :)

The story of the prodigal son is about how God is willing to save us even when we’ve abandoned Him. The older brother represents those who haven’t left the Lord, but they’ve always had the benefit of enjoying His presence, peace and power. God is the Father.

DAMN!!!!!🤯🤯🤯 I always loved Guy Ritchie movies. This just took me to a whole new level off appreciation for him. Thank you for sharing your words of insight and wisdom🙏🙏

I watched this directly after the Russel Brand clip with Rogan. Fascinating they both talk about the outside world trying to make you feel bad about yourself. That leads to distraction and consumerism. Be the Master of your own Kingdom. Love it.

This guy received a $75million divorce settlement from Madonna.

This Guy literally summoned up my life; I have been watching this since the beginning, still it’s so new every single time.

“It’s only when we’ve lost everything, that we are free to do anything” - Tyler Durden

"Damn..... that's deep, Guy Ritchie" 😂😂

As a writer, I am in awe of Ritchie's story telling

What an awesome message and wonderful reminder. Also, I love the fact he doesn't speak using "like" and "um" and all the other filler words that a lot of people use. His speaking has a great cadence - it's well thought out.

He is a genius.. He tells stories we know, in a way only he can do it

What I observe about people with charisma and intellect is that they don't say AAAA EEEE UUUU when they are talking. They think, before they talk. They think, before they act.

Guy 2017: 'Take away all the crutches' Guy 2008: 'Madonna, give me half your money'

He just blew my mind. This reminds me of the scene in the movie Snatch where Bullet-Tooth Tony explains to the 3 guys holding fake replica pistols at him while he was holding a Desert Eagle 50 caliber. Great movie and great scene! I enjoy how this interview ended "otherwise you're not gonna play the game are ya".

This was one of the most impactful clips EVER on JRE

"Really? 45 year old man and you're still dressing like a 19 year old" I just died..

What are all these comments talking about? This podcast was fucking class. Guy Ritchie makes a lot of sense

'If you wish to be the king of the jungle, it's not enough to act like a king. You must be the king. There can be no doubt. Because doubt causes chaos and one's own demise.'

I watch this clip every once in a while. Keeps me centered.

I come back every to this video then and there, I got goosebumps the first time I heard it, I really could relate. After feeling I understood the message, I find myself now suddenly grasping a new tiny part of it, makes me realize how rich the message is.

"Im getting fascinated by the way your brain works" Here we go

Watching & actually "hearing" Guy speak, is like a really good sermon at your hometown church. You leave it feeling light on your feet, refreshed, & cannot stop thinking about that which you've heard. This episode is GOLD for the soul!

"Made by a chap called Brunello, knows what he's doing." Could be a line from any character in a Guy Richie movie.
