I like how he takes responsibility for his actions. A lot of people say “I hung out with the wrong people” but you are who you hang around.

Mykal seems like a solid dude. He lets off a dope vibe that’s different than you’re other guests. Dudes legit glad to see em out and bettering himself 💯💯

People from Jersey are some of the most genuine people you can meet 💯

You've got a knack for asking the right questions but also listening so the next question gets even more information.

Ran into this randomly, really great episode, pray this man gets what he deserves, he’s clearly reformed and learned from what he did

Ian and all of his guest deserve way more recognition than they get...by far one of the best prison channels on youtube.

This was one of the most amazing conversations I have heard ever. Thank both of y’all for just being yourselves. I learned so much. Keep your peace. 💯

I was just scrolling on KZfaq needed something to watch. And this popped up. Thank the lord. Something good

Mykal Is a very genuine person, loved this interview.

Mykal...u gotta start your own channel foo...u got the charisma for it...run that

Loved this !! A real conversation between two real humans. I was locked in 💯👏🏽

This man Ian ask the best questions. Mad respect

Thank You Mykal for sharing your story it was def heartfelt 💯 I gotta say you def have a high energy about yourself. I am a female Dr. (you'd be surprised who watches these channels) I truly wish the BEST for your son to become that eye surgeon I really really do. Keep at him he's going to have to work hard but it will pay off in the end. Crazy how you said about a trucking business my parents own a fleet 125 to be exact from tractor trailers to tri-axle dump trucks all along the East Coast. Pls don't give up on your dreams make it happen Mykal or being a rapper. Stay in your own lane you seem like a Great guy Proud of you for straightening up and making it out. I had to laugh tho when you talked about "jail house lawyer" I would have been screaming CHAAAD!!!! 😂😂 Ian your Awesome! Everytime I watch you it just gets better & better. Thank You for sharing to ALL us "squares" out here. Much ❤️ and Respect to Both you guys 💯🙏

He from the same area I’m from. He was a kid full of energy. He was always laughing and smiling. I never seen him mad. I used to see him on heck Ave walking to school with the rest of us.

To see where Ian has come from with his TikToks and witness his skill in interviewing, I can't wait to see what you will create. You are one of my favorite creators, and your story is super motivational. Keep up the awesome work, man.

Ian your interviews are great. I feel like this one needs a follow up a year from now.

Withdrawal from Xanax is about the worst thing to get clear of. Doing it in jail would be an added ordeal. You can die coming off Xanax. He still smiling, so he must be internally strong.

bro i thought i wasnt gonna make it through this interview at first because i usually dont like talkative high energy guys like this guy in real life but this interview was good af. yall had good chemistry and he had a good well rounded perspective.

Living in a neighboring town to Neptune and listening to this is surreal

Listening to these interviews take me back. Thanks for doing this. I have my own crazy story and listening to these brings back so many memories. Thumb up and shared with others that will understand.

I did 28 years in federal prisons. He look familiar. I finally was released under the new drug law. I was charged with distributing 30 kilos of herion, in the red apple drug gang aka Nicky Barney family. I originally had a life bid. I .. since I been out, I’ve written a book about childhood, the whole experience of the fast life. Prison as well. So holler at me. I got shit to say as well.👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👮‍♂️👮‍♂️

This was my favorite interview so far! I think you are doing an awesome job at trying to listen to all the feedback and apply it to interviews as you go. This guest had awesome energy and personality too. ❤

Doing a 10 year bid currently... I watched this entire interview !!! A GREAT INTERVIEW I MUST SAY 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 he hit on some touching points and shared light in alot of places I can't find the words for... Real humble Guy ! Respect

He is the definition of "smile through the pain"

I knew some dudes like him in the joint. When you cut through their BS, they’re solid ass dudes. They just didn’t want to be vulnerable. I get it. This here is a solid ass dude.

I feel ya dude. I went thru IN and IL and it took 17 yrs to get straightened out. The joint ain't no joke and it's just surviving, not living. I went thru Statesville, Menard and Michigan City IN. I started in 76 and with a couple short breaks got home in 93. All dead time you can't get back.

Xanax was all I needed to hear to believe his story. 😂😂🤦🏽 Straight jail teleportation devices right there. 💊

He seem like a good hearted dude. Another amazing podcast from the man Ian Bick! “I robbed him” 😂😂😂

Amazing story/interview! This young man is an inspiration. If all else fails? Mykal could make a fortune doing voice over work for LL Cool J.

Banger of an episode!

I am beyond impressed by how this man is smiling even whilst retelling stories that are rather traumatic to him. He really does give off amazing, positive energy. I believe this gentleman would make an extremely successful salesman. Any industry that relies on charisma to be honest.

A interview with josh @ lockdown 23&1 would be another great vid. Keep on rockin Ian!

i found his page awhile ago and he talked about the day his girl stopped visiting you can feel his pain fr. great episode

Great interviewer.. this guy has great energy really hope he never goes back and is happy and successful in whatever he chooses to do.

Dude is positive, REAL, and acts like a grown up. He could be a mentor all day.

Asbury Park in the building! Much respect 🙏 wish you the best brotha.

Mykal good for you Love. Keep your amazing spirit about you Your a handsome young man with a wonderful personality and you’re definitely going to go positive places ♥️

He is so real and so humble. Wish him all the best! Stay free man

I'm so glad you appeared on my page ❤I've never been arrested or a traffic ticket but I really enjoy and listening to your podcast and it's really an eye opener to me and I'm learning Real Life Experiences that I have only seen on TV and the News 🙄but I have alot of Respect for you and others that have a Positive Impact and Attitude and doing good things ❤ Your also cute 😉Keep up the Amazing work 👏👏👊

My cousin sent me this, rip to Malcolm he used to walk my friend (Michelle, his ex) and I home after school. I remember him (Mykal) from Milton ave days lol he was neighbors with my Aunt.

Mykal u gotta good spirit, impressive 7 years in the SHU didnt break it. keep ya head up and you will go far

Youre a talented interviewer. Have a knack for asking the right questions yet patiently let your guests speak without cutting in. Unlike most podcast hosts you put the spotlight on the guests, not yourself. Keep it up bro, your channel will continue to grow.

I hope he breaks the cycle of prison with his child. He seems like a nice guy without the guidance of a father.

Dude is right , people are walking around and look at the homeless like they are less than human not knowing what tragedies have happen ,what heartbreaks they have or the loneliness they have because everyone in their life has died . They might make you uncomfortable and make a area look trash but they literally dont have anywhere to lay their heads .

I have the same dumb stories homie, don't sweat it, living in the past only brings pain, live for the present and the future bro.... Thank you for telling your stories!! Humor is a great way to view things in life, no need to stress about it, ya literally accomplish nothing by doing that, just hurt yourself.... You're still young though, believe me, you've got a great mind, and you could do anything with it!! :)

Commenting for the algorithm!! I'll be back when I'm done watching!!

That’s my old celly he’s a hood dude boom!!! What’s good bro salute 🫡

I protect my peace at all cost...

should deff have him back on he has more story to tell

How did he just brush over his friend Malcom dying? Then he doesn’t ask, “Take me through that moment starting from when you woke up.” CMON MAN that’s interviewer protocol.

Excellent interview, lots of highs and lows. Goodluck out there in the world!!!!

Ian!! ❤So happy for your success❤Your #1 fan from Oklahoma ❤

love this one interview should have been a 3 hour one for sure great work

This dude seems super chill. Get this man back on.

Good Luck Mykal. Merci Ian.

Great interview. Can tell he a good dude. Just life got in the way. Half the dudes I was down with good people. Just shit happens.

Randomly came across this, randomly clicked. Did not disappoint.

Man you need to get my unc on, he did 10 at adx Florence. Such a wild story. Same thing with my pops, love this podcast man keep it up!

Excellent interview you ask all the right questions all the best to BOOM

This was an honest interview! He told it how it was....not what he thought the host wanted to hear!

You jay and chad are my morning rituals on the way to work

Love this episode love your show Ian

Never bump this man at Walmart! 😅😂 jk. Hope I run into you at the Neptune Walmart. Thanks for sharing your story. Keep telling it. You got so much hope to share

I really felt this Dude's energy and the honesty of his story.

Ian, first video I saw was through JD Delay’s videos and my first impression was “I don’t like this guy” but I watched your story and realized how much I enjoy your content. Now I send your videos to my friends. 😊

The consistency is admirable bro love the content and respect the grind

Great interview. I love this channel. These need to be played in juvy

I love watching stuff like this but hate it all at the same time. And here is why……I met my husband and who I thought was my best friend and love of my life on December 10th 2015. We had a whirlwind romance and got married July 4th 2016. I found out I was pregnant at the end of October and he was then indicted and locked up by November 4th of that same year 2016. He took a plea for 7 years and I held him down for each and every day of his entire sentence. There was never another option in my mind. No cheating. No hall pass. No nothing. We didn’t even have weekend visits (conjugal’s) because he kept getting in trouble so we could never get approval. On the flip side about 3 or 4 years into his bid he asked me if I could post him on all the prison pen pal websites so that he could manipulate women. His idea was that by talking to these women he would be able to take the expense of all the packages, phone time, etc. off of me and they would cover it. I reluctantly agreed, trying to be a good wife, tricking myself into thinking I should be grateful that he came to me instead of going behind my back. Fast forward to his release, the first red flag was that he paroled to his grandmother’s house and not home with myself and the kids. Then within 4 months he told me he wanted a divorce. And the final knife in my back was finding out shortly after that he was in a serious relationship with one of the women he met on the pen pal site I had posted him on. Crazy but that’s life I guess.

Paterson in the building you heeeeeeerd ✊🏽💪🏽💯

Having a father in a kids life is crucial for real

Hell yeah shout out to getting East coasters on here. Sendin love from jersey

Man you don't sleep 😂💪👍

He from my hood! ❤️

You are the best interviewer EVER everything I wanted to know you cleared it

When them folks tell you that YOU WILL lose and you can get a better deal, and YOU KNOW you're guilty, you better take the deal.

Another 🔥 one!

I understand that a lot of things happen in prison but at the same time in my experience the worst part of prison was how boring it is

this really shows how young men need fathers, preferably positive role models

This guys proof that if we want our people to stop killin eachother we gotta start at the home and with family

Keep on keeping on that right path

Ian whats your background? Im fascinated yet know nothing about you.Youve been there....in what capacity? This program is life changing for many who have nothing and no one.Love your efforts BRO

Great Interview Good energy and a decent rapper too

Addicted to your channel

This dude is hilarious, my favorite interview yet.

Every one of these a gem fr dude you have really kept it up fr fr

Yes, absolutely get a public defender in a federal case. The feds have mandatory minimums and a paid attorney isn’t necessary.

Dude sounds like Vin Rock from Naughty By Nature

The same people you love will most definitely turn on you, but hopefully you can see it before its to late. Cause having family and dear friends you can love and trust means alot to a person. If you dont have them to ride or die for you till the end, you will get caught up. Unfortunately 9 times out of 10 your friends or family will give you up.

You are a great interviewer. Keep up the good work!

Bless ya Mylal.. fantastic interview and character… All the best for your future. I was laughing hard listening to this one 😂..

good episode. bring him back to expand on a few things

Getting kicked out in late teens definitely leads alot of young men down the wrong path. I wouldnt kick my son out either. Shouts to my fellow Jersey boy! Glad hes back home. Infectious smile, hope he keeps those good spirits and freedom for the rest of his days.

I could listen to this guys stories any day. Very fun personality

10 out of 10 Thankyou so much❤ This is like therapy

Ygg hanks man great interview great content him being so honest about how it changed him made him feel salute he looks out even to today.

It would be cool to tell my story sometime man I got sentenced to a crime I didn't commit love the show man and what you do

Dope interview 💯. I watch alot of these prsion channels and igotta say Ian Bick is definitely one of the best interviewers.

I like The wayyy ian bick keeps the questions rollin wit no dry spots and gets to the important question right away without beating around the bush or dancing around the gritty shit people wanna know about

He's a great storyteller, more of this.

Dam I felt that. "She always had strict rules, that she didn't even follow herself".
