Boss....after watching the first 3 min. of this video, you are the real deal....no bull shit, that's why I watch!

[jesseternus]

Boss
Remember, if you don’t have haters, you aren’t doing it right!
Your spot on and we all love you. Keep it up

[mikedkc]

Love your style, Boss. We are all products of the choices we make. Thanks for being a great example of hard work, self-determination and making thoughtful decisions that suit your lifestyle!

[hermitld]

Thanks for all the hard work, advice and inspiration. I look forward to Q&A Sunday with my cup of coffee every week...with some creamer in it of course.

Being a youtube creator is a thankless task at times. We do all this work and put it out for people's enjoyment and every expert in the world shows up to give you a hard time about it. Sigh.

[wesleytaylor]

Boss, Another entertaining and fun video. Some folks are going to find fault no matter what you do or say. Down here in Appalachia we just say, "Bless their heart." Keep doing what you have been doing. Some of us enjoy and appreciate it. Have fun brother!!!

[jerryvalley]

I Don't comment very often, but here goes. This is one of the most informative videos I've seen in a long time. Keep up the good work . Thank You.

[JustinOhio]

Very wise advice towards there end there with motivating people to do anything they want.

[mikegto]

I tell ya'! These videos get better and better.  Wow.  Thanks a million, Boss.  You keep it real.

The Boss has a great sense of how a forest should evolve over time. If only more people would be as passionate about nature as he is maybe we wouldn't be in this mess (destroying trees and all).My father didn't complete school either but he was the go to reference person when it came to finding a solution in his trade. He would even invent tools to make his work easier. I find that talent and experience counts for much more then theories. Love those Q&A Sunday episodes. Thanks again

i love your grounded wisdom. your hilarious and God continue bless you.

[robinhoff]

Still my favorite you tube spot. You go guy

[aheadsup]

I been watching your videos for a few years and hardly comment but i will now. Dont change a damn thing! you typically choose your words and sentence structure to be very clear for those who actually listen. Im not saying i always agree with you because i dont but were two grown ass adults with our own life experiences and were allowed to disagree. Maturity and respect are shown in with how we handle disagreements as well as our agreements. Peace.

[gerardpickett]

good morning rev JC, LOL THAT WAS A GOOD SERMON .

[nick]

JC you are a very genuine person and probably the genuine on YOU TUBE. You walk the talk and don’t have a cabin in the woods for a studio to make videos then drive back to another home. Your living what your saying and give out very good information to others. Have a great Sunday and look forward to seeing you again.

[susanpoole]

I just wanted to say that I have been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I have gotten some very valuable information and a lot of pure entertainment. You are living the life that I have always wanted. May God bless all of y'all!

[jeffreysweitzer]

Another one of your great videos and humor. Keep doing what you are doing.

[freestylefarming]

Wow JC that was a long winded way to tell some idiot troll to go square off in a IT!

[garybrown]
