    "If you can't talk about hard things you have no business getting married" Wise words to be married by.
  • @tragickingdom69
    Strange times when a divorce lawyer is the best marriage counselor you've ever seen.
  • @uplatenite8in
    ¨Whoever discovered water, wasn´t a fish. When we are in a thing, we don´t see it¨. Damn, incredibly profound statement.

    "Tiptoeing through life so you can arrive safely at death." - brilliant!!! Love this guy!!
  • "people will lie to their therapist but they won't lie to their divorce lawyer", one of like 40 gems in this video
  • @Airestotle09
    This guy was born to be attorney. The right amount of mental fortitude, grace and harsh truth in a human
  • Love his take on social media causing general unhappiness in comparing yourself to others... "you're looking at everyone's greatest hits while you're living your gag reel."
  • @Leila-ie3ms
    “I don’t think I can learn everything about myself from myself”perfect!
  • @Scott-iw5ji
    This is the EXACT guy you want to be drinking whiskey with in a dark quiet bar. I could listen to his stories for days.
  • @wot4me2
    I NEVER thought I'd listen to a divorce attorney for an hour, but Jim's societal insights are fascinating! Great interview, please have him back.
  • @SeemaRamkissoon
    "the skill set for a father is completely different to the skill set of a husband" this man nailed it
  • @Striker0304
    My husband and I watched this together. We have been happily married for 37 yrs. We are both retired from law enforcement, we beat the marriage odds there too. Hubby is 58 and I will be 56. We spend most days and every night together. We have our own hobbies. We hit the marriage lottery.
  • @alanarzate93
    Man that first story about the 92 year old man leaving his wife after 60 plus years of marriage is actually heartbreaking I actually got upset 😔
  • @ModernMusic831
    “Falling feels like flying for a little while until you hit the ground” ONE OF THE RAWEST INTERVIEWS IVE SEEN
  • These topics are often overlooked but are essential for understanding each other. Kudos to the interviewer for addressing all the real issues from social media to finance nothing was left un-turned.
  • @seomil8622
    So sharp, intelligent, and witty. This guy is a dot connector, and a damn good story teller.
  • @Scientist_Salarian
    Incredible conversation. We all just got $500-1000/hr. worth of advice for free. One of the best things you can do for marital health is listen to guys like this. It’s just as important to know how marriages turn bad as how they stay strong.
  • @TannerBraungardt
    Felt like every other sentence was worth writing down… incredible interview!!
  • @ashleymarie5093
    Just Wow, I'm 34 and have never been married and never plan to be. I have gone so many years of my life letting society make me feel like the outcast for not wanting this and I truly believed in my heart of hearts that theres definitely something wrong with me. This interview has completely healed me and I will continue to look for love in life but I'll walk through my life with so much more respect and confidence in who I am because of my choices. Thank you for this interview.
  • @Puggers15
    I feel like I won the lottery in finding my husband. I got teary eyed listening to him describe the miracle couple that has been married for over 20 years. Great interview.
