These people surrounding Bam, shuttling him to these interviews, feeding him alcohol and God only knows what else...
They are not his friends. I dunno who they are, but they're bad. Literally handlers. Right up in this very interview with him, just all up his ass, all the time.
He needs to be ALONE.
22:27 Bam says something very fucking interesting about one of the possible sources of funding behind Lima. He mentions "Dick Howser" Paramount. I Googled that name, and it's some ball player who died in the 1980s. So I dunno if that's who he's talking about, or if it's some other Dick.
I will say that Bam would be a far more palatable personality to kick it with if he were sober. The influence of the alcohol/potential drugs is truly a hindrance. It's sad. For anyone.
23:56 he says "eff Johnny Knoxville"... I can only assume he will say something about how Knoxville influenced his own drug use.
24:36 so it's all about Knoxville being a fucking JACKASS and basically fucking up Bam's body permanently with some stupid shit it doesn't sound like he directly consented to. (Well that kinda thing CAN lead to drug abuse due to pain/escapism.)
I wonder where in Bam's contract with the Jackass situation did he consent to these harmful "pranks" by Knoxville, et al.
25:35 if this type of shit was permitted by any contracts, then Bam doesn't really have a path to legal recompense from Knoxville unfortunately. This whole thing just disgusts me. I always thought Jackass was just the stupidest shit imaginable.
25:06 Steve-O is just as much of a piece of shit as the rest of the people who are fucking with Bam's freedom and have trespassed against his body/health. He's an enemy and he's in on it, no doubt about it whatsoever in my mind.
28:50 $600k+ for rehab... this is why I maintain Bam probably has very little money left even though he always likes to point out that he made "20 million" from Jackass (what, 20 years ago?) and got paid a million here and there for whatever.
That money goes fast. There's no way he has much of it left. And when they're draining him of a million for "rehab," I'd like to know who the fuck exactly GETS THAT MONEY. Who is REALLY getting that money??
