Great Video!
"Yeah I got kids in Beijing China and shit... yeah I got a scroll in the fuckin mail!" Fuckin lol
Channel 5 always shows me the world of America with full of wonders and surprises. Very good food for thoughts on Sunday evening.
Used to play in the wash (same wash is now the 170 Hollywood Freeway). Near Chandler by the North Hollywood park. Hobos were always nice, never any fear of them, I was around 8, back in the 50’s!
love AC love channel 5! peace and love to the hobo community
This was fantastic. Very cool that you thumbed it there yourself
Huge train hopping population in Phoenix. I’d love to see more on this topic
HI
This has been my favorite short-video in a long time! I watched it twice, back -to-back. I echo @crimetoad, please do an extended cut of this one!
PLEASE do an extended cut of this, i know those guys had SO much more to say and only scratched the surface
My dad played a set at last year's hobo gathering. It looked like a sweet place
I hope that kid Junior is okay....
I went to high-school with a kid that linked up with the FTRA after he graduated and lived this life for a few years.
'Just don't bring that gay shit around me' brother, you moved here...
Yuuuh the twins done did it again
As always, great ending
Perfect stuff 🙏💯🫣
Looking forward to watching at home with audio - is there any plans to get English CC/Subtitles for Patreon? Cheers and congrats!
telling people about that national train manifest is bad opsec. i’m sure the cops know about it but still
U think I should trim from YouTube cut?
You’ve done it again..Good work ch5!
The kid at the end. Dang. He looks regular like he hasn’t been with the hobos long
I learned about the Hobo Code from "Under the Silver Lake" an underrated flick.
Who else be doing the heyayayayyayataa at the end of every video??
How dare you make this look so cool. J/K this is seriously a cool vid these guys all seem really unique.
You always do such a good job of showing how amazing and interesting every individual person is. Love it
Hey channel 5, i ordered one of the physical disk dear kelly films but haven't heard much since ordering. What's the lead time like on those (no rush just wondering)
thank you ac
Damn. This has me thinkin real hard. “Help Other Brothers Out.” I dig it. Keep on keepin on, Andrew.
Whoa iowegian Rick is still alive? The dude with the steam train tattoo on his forehead. Haven't seen that guy in a decade
First, I am a huge fan and legit love the work you do but… Please do not expose this culture to the masses. I’ve been a lifelong train hopper and graffiti writer and these subcultures have been DEVASTATED by mass communication and the proliferation of the information about these cultures. It’s incredibly detrimental and I genuinely can barely take it anymore. Sometimes it is best left to the shadows. You are just making it harder. This isn’t a game and the more info there is out there about what we do, the more unnecessarily dangerous it becomes.
Is the Hobo Convention a secret?
So what decides what is channel 5 vs all gas no breaks
The moustache
I have a friend who's always told me reverently about this!
Andrew, you’re one of the real ones. Fuck the custers
Finally. Something real.
Fuck Yeah!
Thanks for reporting the real shit Andrew
