EllisFam Interviews

I have asked for the EllisFam to do a small 8 question interview so that we may get to know one another and how The Jason Ellis Show has changed or impacted our lives. These are their reply’s, unedited and all in their own words. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do, and thank you to everyone who participated. Without you all this wouldn’t be possible.

mike in canada eh? 中 (@mike_in_canada)

  1. Where do you live? I live in Edmonton Alberta Canada.
  2. What is your occupation? As far as I see it, my job is to making people laugh and I’m fucking good at it. Of course I have no statistical evidence of this, nor do I receive any compensation or nudie photos.
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. In my own head I’m the sickest dude ever and I’m sweet to bring to parties.  Did I mention that I’m incredibly narcissistic? Just kidding. #NotReally
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? Nearly 3 years.
  5. How did you discover TJES? Actually, I got in a really bad car accident where I don’t remember anything that happened before or after the crash. When I woke up in the hospital, I was told that my car was demolished beyond repair. The next day I went to get a rental car which just so happened to have Sirius in it, and when I turned the car on it was on Faction 28.  It was completely by chance, or fate, or God (whatever you want to call it) that I found the show and I’ve been listening ever since.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? I used to skate, when I was younger, and I had a picture of Ellis doing the Mega Ramp on my wall. So after my car accident, when I found his show, I heard a guy that transitioned from being a pro skater to the overlord of radio – it made me think that I could transition myself into anything I wanted to, as long as I was willing to work for it.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? I’m not a guy that’s going to tell you Ellis made me lose 200lbs or anything like that, but the way it changed me is from the people I’ve met and interacted with.  There’s such kindness and good vibes within the Ellisfam that it’s pretty special to be a part of.  Having people tell me that something I said made them laugh or made their day is really cool, and it powers me through the days that aren’t so great.
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? One day I’m going be a writer for the Jason Ellis Show, just fucking try to stop me. Oh and follow me on twitter… @mike_in_canada.

  4. How long have you listened to TJES? Since March ’09
  5. How did you discover TJES? All my BTLS friends had migrated to Ellis so I gave him a try and never went back.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? The comraderie of the EllisFam 1st & foremost.  And I just LOVE the realness of the show.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? Yes I feel that my confidence level has increased tenfold.

  5. How did you discover TJES? Got this job and they bought new F150 with a trial subscription. Scrolling one day and ran across these retards talking about catching bull loads, and the rest was history.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? Just a down to earth person who acts real. Met him a few times and always acts just like he does on the show. Now that I’ve also gotten to know a lot of the ellisfam on twitter as well I have become increasingly involved in the show. Just a all around great show to feel a part of
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? got in a bad motorcycle accident a while back and went on a bender of getting shitfaced, popping pills, eating shit, got fat as fuck and being a all around worthless human being. Ellis had one of those motivational shows about hardening the fuck up. Before the show ended my cigarettes were in the trash and was limping my ass down to my apartments gym to the treadmill to start rehabbing my injuries. I’m now 50lbs lighter, non smoker, train MMA 5 days a week, back on the motorcycle lighter and  faster than ever. Thanks mate!!

Love you guys!!  And for fuck sake YES that is my real license plate for my bike in my avi!!! @banginmumtards

中 Bevan 中 (@Cre8vBlade)

  1. Where do you live? Virginia Beach, VA
  2. What is your occupation? Web Designer / Social Media Coordinator
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. I love being creative. If I can’t be creative with whatever I’m doing, it’s not worth my time.
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? I’ve listened for about three years
  5. How did you discover TJES? I was listening to Bubba the Love Sponge and they were playing a rerun that day. I decided to flip around channels and came across Ellis. I slowly changed the channel from Bubba to Ellis as I found him more interesting. Stopped listening to Bubba completely after a while.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? He inspires me everyday to be my best, to be the best man possible. He projects that attitude in almost every broadcast. I love hearing him and Tully help shape Rawdog’s life for the better because I see a lot of me in him when I was that age. I struggled with women, was unsure of myself, and was a total dork. They all have shaped my life for the better.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? The day I switched to Ellis was the day he was interviewing Devlyn Steele from Tools to Life. I was going through a really low point in my life and it was exactly what I need to hear that day. I went through the 90-Day Challenge and graduated a stronger, more positive person. I don’t consider it luck, I consider it a blessing I heard Ellis that day. He and Devlyn taught me that there is no situation I couldn’t get out of, that I need to stay positive, and when things get rough I need to HTFU and power through it to succeed. Ellis has also taught me how to man-up more, to endure pain and ridicule in order to become a stronger individual. I am also part of the OG Ellisfam, a group that has allowed me to open up more as a person, be bolder in my attitude, and become more confident with women (because they have some LOVELY ones in the group I call my friends).
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? Ellisfam forever.

Thanks, Jason. Rock on and RED DRAGONS.

Sleepy Joe (@sleepyjoe_RDS)

  1. Where do you live? Port Orford, Oregon
  2. What is your occupation? Stay at home father
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. I am a disabled commercial fisherman/ranch hand.  Married to a most excellent lady, and have two amazing daughters. Spend most of my time trying to make a positive impact on the Ellis family.
  4.  How long have you listened to TJES? I have been listening to Jason Ellis’s Show since late 07 early 08
  5.  How did you discover TJES?I discovered the show driving a friend of mine to his dialysis, would sit in the parking lot listening to Satellite radio, and changed to faction (cause I love the mix of music they put on) and is was the start of the show. Was hooked instantly cause I see eye to eye with most of the points that the whole crew makes not just Ellis.
  6.  What keeps you listening to TJES? I will always listen to the show, one because my debt to ellis, tully, Shoebox, and even Rawdog. The mix of all those personalities and opinions make the show what it is.
  7.  Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? They have helped me through so much…relapse of addiction to old habits, making a change to battle my ailments such as Anorexia, PTSD, and epliepsy. I gave up right around the same time I fought in Ellismania 4, I was 5 weeks out of open abdomen surgery when I fought, because I gave my word to be in the fight, was against the doctors advice.  Stupid Idea cause I had 4 surgeries when I got back from Vegas. Since that experience I have made the 100% effort to change all this stuff for the better.
  8.  Is there anything else you would like to share? The Jason Ellis show is a much needed impact in the world we live in, to many of us skate rats, troubled youths grown up need someone that understands that kind of life situations. The duty of the Ellisfamily is to spread the word and the show anyway they can, but only for the right reasons.

 

Twisted Trucker (@tank_yanker)

Well, I was expecting a few crazy questions, like favorite position, which hand do you wipe with, describe your O face… But here goes..

  1. Where do you live? I live in central Ontario, commonly called cottage country up here. (Because of all the lakes and trees and shit)..
  2. What is your occupation? I’ve been an owner/operator for 20 years driving a truck. Before all that, I was an industrial millwright, welder/fitter, jack of all trades type. Finally fed up with fucktards in management at one end, and babysitting dummies that failed basic math at the other.. So I shit canned the whole thing, bought a truck, and never looked back.. (What the hell was I thinking)…
  3. Tell me a little about yourself.
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? Been a steady listener of TJES about 4 years.
  5. How did you discover TJES? and pretty much knew of Ellis when the Red Dragons started fucking with Bubba (BTLS) which was funny as shit, so I started to catch his shows then. Been hooked ever since..
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? That’s an easy one!. WTF is gonna happen today?
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? Since listening to the show, and signing up on twitter, the first few people I started following was @AZ_RedDragon, @bitpimps , and @mike_in_canada. Since hooking up with these fuckwits, its expanded to a lot of people in the #EllisFam, and that started my slow roll into hell… But at least I’ll be laughing my ass off when I hit the hot stuff!! Which brings us to…
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? Just so you all know, I genuinely care for each and every one of you, and anytime I can help out, I’m happy to try. I’ve met a lot of stand up people through the #EllisFam, (and some crazy bastids too!). You all really help me get through the miles, and I appreciate you taking the time to be smart asses with me all day! *all this written at 60mph. Yeah, I can multi task like a mofo..* *some names have been changed to protect the innocent*.. **wait!..none of you are innocent** never mind.. carry on…
