Rastafarian:Rastafari Wife Swap ABC

Rastafarian:Rastafari Wife Swap ABC – Rastafarian is the talk of the day,because on this week’s episode of Wife Swap, on ABC,a Rastafarian mom Jana Vallone swaps lives with a money-minded mom Katrina Martin.Here is what went down on the episode.

*Sponsored Links*

The Vallone family of Florida consists of wife Jana, husband Jason, and their four children. The four children are seven year old Ezekiel, five year old Shashamane, four year old Malachi, and two year old Sheba. While the Vallone family might not have a large amount in their bank account, they live a life rich in karma.

Instead of working a regular nine-to-five job, Jason sings in a reggae band. Jana home-schools the children and teaches them the principles of ONE LOVE. The Vallone family believes that Jah will provide, and they often take trips to the beach.

The Martin family of Texas consists of wife Katrina, ex-marine Troy, and their three daughters. The three daughters are sixteen year old Allyson, fifteen year old Charlene, and nine year old Emily. The Martin family value good financial management and set financial goals. The three daughters all have chores that they must complete each day.

In the first week of the swap, Jana Vallone is surprised by all the chores that the Martin family girls have to do. On the other hand, Katrina Martin is equally surprised to see the Vallone family children doing whatever they want. In the second week of the swap, Jana attempts to show Troy that happiness comes from giving, while Katrina sends Jason to work at a job. The Vallone kids also get to experience public school for the first time.

That’s all we have for now,on Rastafarian:Rastafari Wife Swap ABC.

    The father/husband is a BUM,plain and simple hiding behind a religion. This is not just my thought, but the opinion of a couple of friends who really live the lifestyle.

    Just a quick comment from a personal friend of Jason (Jahson) from wifeswap. I knew this would happen. I actually was worried about it. The show definitely picks out the best and worst of each personality and exploits the heck out of it. In watching the show, I’d agree with you and others who may believe he’s a bum. The show depicts him as a bum and they don’t show how hard he actually works. They had that plan from the beginning im sure. Its all about polar opposites and drama. I wish they went further into Rastafari and what it’s all about. I know plenty rastas who work really hard to make it. They may not have much money, but can still be rich in life. I know plenty people with a ton of money but live like sufferers. Miserable, complaining all the time, cheating on their wives and neglecting their children. The show got stuck on a few cliches that painted an ugly picture of Jason. Jah will provide. They made it look like he was sitting around waiting for handouts all day. Jah provides opportunities, and jah provides me drive and determination to go after those opportunities. Theirs no rasta (law) against hard work. Thats the way i see it. I can fill my jar and believe Sela**ie is the king of kings. Sela**ie never told people to freeload. I think people get confused by seeing rasta on tv or in movies, or in jamaica in the hills living off the land, farming. Have you ever been a farmer? Thats hard work, and jah provides if you til the soil. plant the seed and keep it watered. Nurture it. Work. Jason is probably one of the best husbands and fathers I’ve known. He’s honest, hardworking and loves his family and friends more than anything. He works hard and has the drive to become a singer in a reggae band. He’s planting the seed, tilling the soil and soon he will be rewarded. Some may not see working as a musician as work. But they shouldn’t judge him on what they saw. It’s television. Do you believe everything you see on tv? I hope not!
    Oh, and Janna. Thought you were awesome with the other family. Those girls should never forget you. Good works.
    Bless.
    SORRY IF MY POST IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. I’m trying to work and post this at the same time.
    Later….

    Jason (Jahson) is a huge loser, I’ll bet that he comes from a rich background. He needs to get a job and stop relying on “Ja”. I’ll bet that this couple sells pot to make ends meet instead of making an honest living. If these losers went to Jamaica they would get their lilly white a**** thrown out. Jason and Janna Suck! Wake up to reality, your kids are getting a worse education than public school (if that’s possible) and sleeping on a dirty mattress. Step up Losers!

    Ok, so I watched this and I am a western minded white anglo-american. However, I do love reggae music and my love of it prompted me to read a lot about it early on. When I watched this I was just thinking that true Rastafari must be absolutley appaled by this guy who claims to represent Jah. First of all, he is white which is fine, except that one of the core principles of Rasta is the idea of afro-centrism and that the Bible was corrupted by whites and “Babylon”. This is not a racist concept, simply an evolution of a black culture and religion that grew out of a very specific community. Furthermore, at one point he takes money from the family funds jar to go have a beer, true Rastafari do not drink at all because alcohol was created out of Babylon, and is corrupt and poisoning. I hope that people don’t watch this and think that Jason is at all a representative of Rasta culture, anymore than that crazy fat “God-Warrior” was a representative of Christianity. It does make for good television though. If Jason truly wants to live the life of a Rasta then he should move his family to Jamaica where he will not have the option of constant hot and cold running water and excess. Also, he is a terrible parent for not educating his children, if he doesnt want Babylon to do it, then he needs to do it himself.

    blessings to Jason and his lovely wife Jana and his really beautiful children. It’s a given the whole point of the show is to cause drama and find opposites, my husband and i joke about what they’d match us up with (we’re interracial) anyhow, we looked past the false drama and what Jason was saying. I admire that Jana runs her home and spends time being a wife and mom and that Jason provides, not many traditional couples anymore and they should be proud. Jah does provide, all ways, always. We’re Christian but believe much of what rasta says. PS I love Ezekiel’s dreadies, my son sports the locks and i look forward to them being as nice as “Zekes’” Bless up.

    I’ve met the Vallone family and I would not say I agree 100% with the way they conduct life. I know as parents Jason and Jana have nothing in mind but the best for their children. I do not agree with their religious ways, but know they care more about their family than most mothers and fathers. The show of course focused on the bad but not the good. They are a good family with great care and love. JAH RASTAFARI!

    It seems like the more people who type about Rastafari are wannabe Rasta’s, who make themselves come off ignorant the more they type.

    “oh noes, the shows editing made it seem like he was a bum”

    The show certainly didn’t make him say the things he said. The show didn’t make him wear the clothing he wears or proclaim his religion. The guy just let the flood gate that is his mouth – open to the world.

    That’s great that he cares about his family and doesn’t live for materialism, but he should not use Rasta as an excuse for EVERYTHING. You are alive, get up and physically do something with your life! Especially when you have children.

    First off rasta is not religion, its a culture and a faith. And Sela**ie says, “No one should question the faith of others, for no human being can judge the ways of God.” The guy works construction. Been painting every morning round 6am after he feeds and takes care of his kids. He’s not a bum in the least bit. The show doesn’t show that because it wouldn’t be as dramatic. What u dont see is the instigator standing in the room picking and pulling at every angle to cause drama. I know since the instigator came to my house, In my studio.
    Its drama, television, not even reality tv. JUST DRAMA. Do u really think reality tv is reality. Just look at the commercial advertising sold during the show. Its so planned its rediculous. But anyways, u don’t know him so think what u want.
    Judge not.

    Well, he is a bum if his first instinct is to take every last cent in the home to selfishly drink away immediately rather than buying some food so he doesn’t have to mooch off of his friends just to feed his children–not a very good example to set for said children. Oh wait, I forgot that was because the “instigator” told him to do that because it would make for good television… *rolls eyes*

    The sheer number of mis-spelled words in some of these posts defending him do nothing to advance any positive image of him, those posters, or the Rastafarian lifestyle they’re attaching themselves to. They only show the fact that there’s a severe lack of education there that should be addressed–wait, are you guys this bum’s under-educated children posting here on the sly? Or, better yet, you’re probably the bum himself and all of these spelling errors show us why you think your children are being educated just fine at home…

    No matter what your religion, when you have children it’s time to grow up and realize that your life isn’t ALL ABOUT YOU ANYMORE! Maybe it’s time YOU provided FOOD for your CHILDREN instead of BEER for YOURSELF and stopped waiting for “Jah” (i.e., everyone else) to provide for them…

    Some people on this bulletin are so clueless it isn’t funny! Rastafarian is NOT a religion. It’s a lifestyle and a faith. There is a difference. Since so of you keep throwing education into the mix of reseach that and learn something. Oh and by the way the way the economy is now education actually wouldn’t do anyone any good. There are people with BA’s and further educated than that and are currently now unemployed. So the education that this country emphasises so much means nothing. There are ways to be educated without going to someones cla**room. But unless you actually turn off your tv’s and cell phones and pick up a real book you’d even know. Leave the man and his family alone and worry about what’s really to come in this world and try to prepare yourself for that, instead of bashing a man that you know nothing about but what some show tells you. But then your probably the same people to rely on the media to tell you what’s going on in the world too. Get a life.

    And oh yeah just FYI…”JAH” is not a person persay…it’s just different way of say “GOD”

    Learn something before you post about it please it really makes certain people on here sound ignorant.

    “Ya dont have fi dread to be rasta.” – morgan heritage. there are so many interpretations. rastafarianism is not a very strict religion. take what you want from it. Its supposed to be guidelines to make u a better person. Just as any religion. correct?

    The Rastafarian lifestyle is much less o a joke then the christian, mulslim or jewish lifestyle. All the christian bums should stop waiting for Jesus to make their lives better. The Rasta lifestyle is pretty much the only non “athiest” religion I’ve encountered, perhaps along with Buddhism. Before people attack the Rasta lifestyle or a white man who chooses to live the Rasta lifestyle, they should examine their own absurd beliefs.

    wow. so much hatred for people who know so little about the spiritual beliefs of RastafarI.
    It is not a religion- it is a spiritual belief-where we believe in Jah (God) and His Majesty Emperor Haile Sela**ie. Some see as Jah, some as a prophet.
    There are many houses of RastafarI: Twelve Tribes, Bobo Shanti, Nyabhinghi etc.
    Most Rastas are vegetarian/vegan, and many do not drink alcohol. Not all-many. And not because it was created by ‘babylon,’ but because our body is our temple. And we must watch what we put into it.
    We don’t take from it what we want. We follow Jah’s laws from the old testament, we don’t cut our hair, nor do we shave it, as our hair is our strength. Just as Sampson found that he lost his strength when we cut it.
    Most Rastas follow the belief that we have to help others, and so you find many of us working in the service sector field. Many are educated and many are not. What does education have to do with anything?
    There are TRUE Rastas of all colours all around the world. Haile Sela**ie said ‘judge not by the colour of a man’s skin.’
    Also, this was only 20 minutes (maybe) that you saw of one man. That’s not reality. That’s created “reality.”
    And this family would be completely taken in in Jamaica. Not kicked out.
    p.s. Rastas can be found all over the world. That doesn’t mean that they are less spiritual.

    I hardly ever watch tv, but this show caught my eye. Wife Swap is laughingly obvious with their matches and for me, seeing beautiful dreadlocks on tv was enough to win me over.

    anyone know the band that Jason is in?

  17. Elizabeth | Jan 24, 2009 | Reply

    Wow, where to start? The only value in education is not how much money you can earn because of it, although over a lifetime (not just in times of economic difficulties) educated people generally make more than those with less education. However, education is also valuable as a way of learning about oneself and others, finding one’s place in the world, building a meaningful life, and being able to contribute to the world.

    (BTW, there’s no such word as “persay.” I think you mean “per se.”)

    As far as the Rastifarian family depicted on “Wife Swap,” I’m sure it’s possible that the picture we were given was slanted. On the other hand, the father did come off as a freeloading layabout. I was not surprised to find that the supposedly rigid ex-Marine father was more open to change than the Rasti dad. My concern is for the Rasti children–sure, it’s a fun time, but when they grow up, what opportunities will be available for them to pursue given what seems to be the very slapdash education they are receiving? Basically, I think they might grow up and be very angry with their parents for the lifestyle they’ve been living.

    I believe about 2% of that show. Jason and Jana’s home appears to be colourful and lively. The children were constantly engaging with their father. Although I know nothing about the Rasta lifestyle, I saw a happy, healthy looking family; and a father who appears to have more love going on with his kids than the average father. I agree with a former poster who said that the show just picks at the worst of everything to create drama that will entice viewers. The show is amusing, but certainly we all know that it does not truly represent the people who appear in it.

    I’m a carribean girl, know lots of Jamaicans in my life, and I will tell you, that ‘Jah will provide’ crap is just being used as an excuse to be lazy. I’m sorry, but there’s no reason that his kids should not have beds to sleep in. There’s no reason that a 5 year old shouldn’t be able to read, that 4 kids shouldn’t be in school when their mother CLEARLY doesn’t know how to properly home-school them, especially when you could see that they loved it. People can makes excuses all they want, but those people should NOT have children. There’s only so much that a show can twist things, if something is THERE it’s there. I really don’t care if the kids seem happy, if you let a kid do whatever they want they’ll be plenty happy but it doesn’t mean it’s what they NEED. Child Services needs to go in there, because there is clearly something wrong in that family and those kids CLEARLY need to be with people who will actually care for their needs, not neglect and abuse them and fill their heads with nonsense.

    There are many of you that need to rise up! awaken! Judge not or you will be judged! Treat others how you would want to be treated! This family is blessed! It takes courage and strength to enter the kingdom, but most of all, purity of heart…and charity….This family probably helped my family out more than any of you could help your immediate family….Jahson is a divine king and Jana is a divine queen and together they have the most kind, lovely children, who will do great things for the world because they are actually putting positive energy into them instead of dropping them off @ daycare from 6 am-6 pm so you can buy stuff you don’t need…wake up America…be a part of the problem or part of the solution-

    The show edited ALOT of things to make it dramatic…this rasta family is my biological family, though I am not “Rasta” I am much more “like” the other family. Again a lot was edited…he DID have a job besides his band, a painter. He is always busy to provide for his family. He is NOT a bum in any sense. They are the Most un-materialistic people I KNOW with the biggest hearts for mankind. I WISH I could be more like them! They LIVE the bible life!

    Ok, I watched this episode and it has bothered me ever since. There is no money for food, the kids can’t read – seriously, are the kids still there because they probably shouldn’t be! Every child is entitled to an education and a good meal at night. Not knowing where the food is coming from, not OK!This episode still to this day bothers me! And I DO BELIEVE IN ONE LOVE, BUT I ALSO BELIEVE IN TAKING CARE OF CHILDREN!

    What an annoying idiot. It I had to hear “rastafari” as many times as Katrina had to I would have punched him in the mouth. He needs to get a clue and get over himself. If you were going to make it in the music business then he would have by now. Playtime is over, it’s time to get real and get a job. At the end of the show they were moving to a new home, was that because of eviction??? Probably so. When you choose to have children to choose the responsibility of providing for them. His way of thinking is great if you live in a tree and are a Keebler elf, but he lives in the real world. Does he really provide for his family or does he rely on taxpayers to provide for his family?

    I don’t care what religion, non-religion, belief system or whatever this guy has, he’s a loser, plain and simple. Anyone that treats his kids like that, making them live in filth and ignorance not knowing where their next meal is coming from is a loser and a child abuser. I wonder how much her spends on weed each week? Or does “Jah” provide it for him free of charge? If I was around him and he kept saying ‘rastafarrrrr!’ at the end of each sentence like he did on the show I’d punch him right in the face.

    Raga…. Real Rasta’s do not drink alcohol and this dude clearly took cash out of their “jar” to go buy beer. Having dreadlocks does not make one a Rasta. His filthy mouth, that was bleeped and bleeped, is another non-rasta behavior. My husband is Jamaican, he is NOT a rasta, but since we go to Jamaica alot, and I have been going for over 22 years, and married 19 of them, I know what RASTAFARIAN’S are about, and he is clearly just a dred. I have Twelve Tribe brethren whose homes are immaculate. Their home is a sty, and there is no way to cover him for everything I wrote here so far. He may be hard working, but he did say with his own words, that “Jah will provide”…that is just words. Yelling out “Jah RASTAFARI” every 2 minutes is so lame and he has clearly insulted the Rastafarian ethics code, wuh-wuh-wuh hun-dred percent…seen?

    Jason sure does have it figured out. Every war was about bad attitudes. If everyone just hung out and didn’t try to provide for themselves we would live in a paradise. A filthy famine ridden paradise. Does he realize that the lifestyle he has chosen can only be made possible because others pick up the slack for him? Jah doesn’t provide for Jason his parents and friends do.

    I have just watched this episode and whilst i think Jason’s wife seemed alot more level headed – I found Jason void of any of lifes responsibilies, I also thought it despicable when it was stated that they try to home school for a couple of hours a day?!?! WTF? I disagree with the parenting skills as the children aren’t spending any length of time learning or with any other children which is very valuable. These people have trashed their kids potential futures – what if one of them wants to be a Doc or a Vet? and anyone who would spend ther families little cash on beer must be on the bottom rung of society.

    It’s too bad that you don’t know Jason or Jana. We should all be more like them, look where our greed in life has gotten us. Jason is a hard worker, loves his family, and both he and Jana teach those kids how to be of service to others in need. About 12 years ago, they took in my son, who at the time was a bit rebellious, they told him he had to pay his way, be honest, and contribute to the household. I credit the Vallones with helping me by helping my son at a difficult time in both of our lives. Jah Bless the Vallone family!! Ant to Jana, I just love you, you are the ultimate mom~~

    I love how Jana wants Troy to give up some money for charity… if she believed strongly in the mosquito net charity imagine how much good she could do if she worked hard at a job and brought in 50,000 a year and gave it all to buy mosquito nets. Of course that would mean working hard and that is the real thing she feels strongly against.

    What a joke!!!! Just yelling out “Rastafari” every two seconds does not a Rasta make! While Jana seems like a loving compa**ionate person, her counterpart ‘Jahson’ is a bit delusional. REAL Rasta’s are laughing at this guy.

    I really like that they teach their children that there are people in the world that are not as blessed as they. But I found Jason to be obnoxious in his closed mindedness. Why go on this show if you aren’t willing to step outside your box? I thought he could definitely have taken some thing from the other mom when it comes to educating and providing for their children. Children shouldn’t have to struggle because their parents make bad choices. Jason and Janna made a choice for their kids and pigeon holed them by refusing to pursue a proper education for them. Homeschooling a couple of hours a day does not for educated people make. Helping others is so noble, but living with $3 in your bank account and hoping for the charity of others just seems backwards. I was also appalled that Jason took the money in the jar to buy beer. That is so irresponsible. I felt like Jason’s “Jah will provide” attitude was an excuse to be lazy and wait for handouts. No, life isn’t all about money, and we should seek out ways to help others. But, I also think that when you have kids, it is your responsibility to do all that you can to provide for them. I feel for Janna having to live with Jason.

    clearly you people have no idea what the meaning of one love and true karma is… rastafari isnt a relifion, but it is commitment. who is anyone to say the difrence between you faith either way. who is anyone to jugde anyone and call anyone a BUM??? they understand the part of living in reality that life and love.. money isnt reality.. its surving at its worst, ur confused by it.. you dont need it to live… you need eachother and commitment… live is why people get through the hard times in life, when ur parents die who’s there ur wife or ur money? they understand that… they give and in so many religions you have to give to recieve, one again, dont jugde. one love is what gets us through the day and in times like now with the war…. if everyone would understand one love and not try to be better than others becuase no one is better than one another… its greed you feel not pride when you think you are better by the wa!!y… but we wouldnt be in war today if everyone did understand one love and the rasta way of being…. why can you say “god” will take care of me and my problems but JAH WILL PROVIDE… SCARES THEY HELL OUT OF YOU? its is okay to live in life and reality!!! dont be so damn close minded and see the bigger picture of life life loveing one another for their faults and accomplishments!!! i think the way they live is truth.. no matter how many bedrooms they have they always have eachother…they believe in them selfs and JAH enough to know everything will be be okay… becuase its true.. you belive and have faith in him JAH WILL PORVIDE!!! LIFE THE RATSA LIFE!!!! one love to all even those who are confused!!!

    Ok sorry, I finished watching the show and I respect the Rasta belief but I do not think that Jason is a good figure to just Rastafarians by. Forget the name of his band, he needs to stop representing something he does not truly believe and represent. Jah loves everyone right? Jason did not display this.
