#142 Mitch Smiley, Hard Intentions!!! 39 Years In, Locked Up At 17, Released At 56...

This conversation took place on September 13, 2021 In this episode I am talking to Mitch Smiley. I heard about Mitch from the comment section of a YouTube channel called Koncrete. I was reading the comments from my appearance on the show and one of Mitch's followers suggested to the host of the show to check out Mitch as a future guest on the show. So I did and was really impressed with what he has been doing since he was released almost 4 years ago. I reached out to Mitch and invited him on the show for this evening to share his story and his inspiration and hope with us. * * A little bit about Mitch: * I went to California state prison at 17 years old for aiding and abetting and 2nd degree murder with a 15 to life sentence. I was released at 56 years old, my 4 year anniversary of my release is 9/29. I had a dream to start a company called hard intentions while I was in prison and did the artwork while I was locked up. I now have a thriving business (thanks to Jesse James from Orange County choppers and Lockdown 23&1 on YouTube) for 2 years. I have a wife who married me in 1988 in the joint. I used to use drugs but gave that up in 1998 (it was called crank back then). I ride a 2022 Indian Motorcycle and life is good. * * You can find Mitch here: * Website: * https://hardintentions.com/ * * Live-Stream Links: * Facebook https://www.facebook.com/608082120110238/videos/398301191641515 * YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abGGM3vgYz8 * Twitter Live: https://www.pscp.tv/w/1mnGeaNZzDAGX * * If you are getting value out of the content that I'm creating; You can buy me a coffee here: * https://www.buymeacoffee.com/pozapoze * * If you like the streaming platform that I am using called StreamYard use the link below to sign up with and receive a $10 credit when you spend your first $25 on an upgraded account.
