Yeah B'i B'i B'i Bavu B'i B'i Buzinka Zo Zoo Zoo Zoo Zao W'i B'i B'i B'i B'u Zao. Oh, it's made Paisley all excited. It's made I want to lie down and go to sleep. Well, good afternoon, morning, evening or night Ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Broca's 43 40-sheesh

I'm here with us to Alex joined by Jim Hello over there Hello Strange being so far away from you It is quite strange What's this like three metres It feels like a Like there's a

Something between do you know what i mean like um a glass panel like you're being watched uh in a zoo like your yeah yeah one of us is being like quarantined you know it's like 28 triggering me with that letter man yeah well yeah social distancing hmm the old sby all the good memories come back yeah i hope my feet aren't blocking you i mean the reason i wanted to do this crazy angle is that we did a interesting angle last episode too and there was one comment that was like Go lower

I was like okay you know what I'm gonna take you up on that I'm gonna go as low as low can be You're gonna have to dig a hole next time Before we get too deep into the show Let me shout out the Jermedia Patreon And the patrons over at the Patreon Or Samsung

Something like that Well I'm liking not being on camera I feel like I can go real crazy mode Yeah it's ultimate freedom Um But that's not all. Well, actually, I didn't say a single perk yet. The audio version is that first and foremost perk.

We get the ad-free, raw, unfiltered MP3 over there. And, of course, there's the patron names. In the first or second week of each month, we read out your name if you're a debiterer or above. We've already done it this month. But February's coming fast. Too fast. Don't like it. But that's not all.

It's also jafter hours. there on Patreon we got a couple uh as they say's up on there wellis and grommet and wallace and grommet vengeance most foul now up for an oscar oscar both of the as they say videos we've done are up for at least one oscar um better man as well as the other as they say video a controversial film um it turned out to be uh find out what oscar is that for um wallace and grommit or better man better man it was something to visual effects i think oh okay yeah all right yeah no I and I don't think it could be up for anything to do with music because of their weird rules about like it wasn't made for the film so there was some drama about the Dune soundtrack for that like Dune two soundtrack couldn't be used because a certain percentage of it was used in the first movie so that disqualifies it even though it's a sequel to that film and it's like a part two of the same film right bit confused is a bit confused a little bit like what the jail links talk about on the jail media group chat the final perk I'm going to shout out here

um where you can just you know what group chat is I hope maybe I don't hope what do I hope nowadays there is no hope anymore hmm you know there's a jowlings can give us little suggestions of what to talk about like what we're going to shift into now the housekeeping segment where we just round off conversations from the previous week or bring up things that need to be talked about um this was like a a weirdly good week for housekeeping sometimes it's just one or two i do because it's nothing um if i was in charlie bit my finger i'd bite that little ungrateful f back said don't talk about sonic whenever you bring him up i have to skip ahead in the video people get upset when we talk about sonic the headshot because we don't like him

um i guess we like we like making fun of him because he's just let's be real easy to make fun of and he sucks yeah i mean it's extremely easy yeah uh sorry sorry for having the correct opinion although in saying that I'm gonna watch Sonic 3 I'm more likely to watch Sonic 3 the movie over most the other one they keep saying to watch Transformers 1 oh god yeah 100% Jesus Christ the only the only IP worse than Sonic Transformer oh you're like picking these like really passionate fan bases to go for I like it no I mean there's that I'd say there's a an 80% chance if if your IP was

made in the late 80s 90s early 2000s there's dog shit I agree to us I love a lot of these things but like just leave them where they are or were I should say like Ghostbusters I don't get why Ghostbusters is like still a franchise and they're still making them. But when did Ghostbusters come out? 80 something. 80 what? I don't know. Pre-85 or post-85? I'll tell you right now. Because like the closer, the 90s is like a stinking heap. It's like Chernobyl, you know, it's a radioactive time zone. If you... For what, though? For new IPs? Yeah, for IPs. 90s was good, wasn't it? 90s was like Matrix, Jurassic Park. Jurassic Park was

based of a book, actually. Yeah. So, that doesn't count. Yeah, a Matrix as an IP, dog shit. Trash. But you get the first one. How many good Matrix movies are there? Fine.

Ghostbusters was 84, for the record. Exactly. Yes. What was your point about that, sorry? If it's post-85, it's more likely to be shit. It's like the percentile. it ramps up towards being shit the later into the 80s you go

and it peaks in the 90s Does that mean I can I was thinking about this with A lot of my favourite albums are from the 70s Except for Remain in Light Which was released in 1980 But my logic was A lot of the creative juice from that

Surely would have been in 79 If we're really getting technical with it Yeah I suppose I suppose that is true So that's like the energy of the 70s more than it is the energy of the 80s. Yeah. Or it's, it's... It's like something that would have been inspirational to the 80s, you know, like forming

the 80s. Yeah, yeah. You know? Because it... You don't consider 1990, the 90s really? It's more like the... No, it's the awkward period. It's the accumulation of everything 80s.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, speaking of funny angles, Mick Saladin says this angle makes... makes me feel like I'm in their walls hiding, just like I always wanted. Well, what does this angle make you feel? Unless you're listening, then you can imagine anywhere, anything. What does this sound make you feel? This is the question.

That's the sounding question. The mentally disturbed collie says, wait, we've been in the OG room this whole time. Whoa, I thought they were in a hallway or something. A hallway? What do you mean? I guess this room's quite long But we've, I'm pretty sure we've used this Well, maybe not

Now we used like a mirrored angle Last time we were up here Like COVID era Speaking of effing pandemics It was here Yeah, it was here It was this very wall Was it where the sofa is exactly now

Was where the other sofa was Except the camera was just over there Was it? Yeah, because remember I had the desk there as well and had stuff on the screens. I think you could see the audio and stuff. Yeah.

Yeah, I think so. Some sing. And Crash Punk said, P.O.V. You're an attic goblin and you haven't been spotted yet. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much. Um, smell-diff says, uh,

Alex is taking the phrase logical extreme to its logical extreme. I saw this comment. I liked it. I mean, I didn't, actually, I didn't like it. I didn't leave a YouTube like on it. I didn't, no. Oh, right. Oh, that makes me think, though, I do, I've been meaning to talk about this for quite some time because every time I see it, it cringes me out.

Sorry to totally, uh, no, do it. Like 90 degree perpendicular type. Perpet. Um, I'm a perp. I'm gonna perp it. Okay. I watch a fair amount of YouTube shorts. You know, everybody has their scroll, you know? Their Algo.

Yep. Um. And I, I read comments fairly regularly. Oh, YouTube shorts comments Yeah, something else Yeah, yeah, yeah But the cringiest thing I see And on basically every short

Is someone will leave like a A normal comment The most normal comment ever Yeah And then they'll get like 10,000 likes And then it'll be like edit Wow, thanks for the support guys Really?

This is crazy Yeah, like people will go back Edit their comment And thank their like Do you like notifications I guess, I guess they're getting notified at how many likes they're getting. Yeah. So, um, it's just the cringiest lamest.

There's, there's a mechanic in Death Stranding called likes. Yeah, like, you, you get like a sound effect and shit. And there, there are some baddies in Death Stranding who become addicted to, like, the, the feeling of getting likes. And I feel like, uh, seeing people reacting that way is, it's like, yeah, could you? you think you are people do that same thing on Twitter where they get a viral tweet and then it once it's popped off they reply to it and they create a coin a pump and down coin they sell um like a weird sex toy or something right you know drop shipped like item or something for a quick buck yeah it's just it's gross and pathetic um and yeah maybe i do say

logical extreme too much but it's also something that's been true recently lots of things every year been taken to their logical extreme yeah yeah right society is at its logical extreme right now or it's it's getting there it's trying to get there i guess i guess everything does pretty much and uh on that No, Marcus Britt, says, uh, guys, we got company. Awesome comment. Awesome, awesome comment. Hello, Po 7 EQ says, can Alex do Tom Holland's voice in American accent again?

Here's the script. I need you to say this part, because it's the other character. Now, I'll be Tom Holland as an American for buying. You gotta say, hey Tom, what you're watching? Hey Tom, what are watching? I can't do it. Why not? Because I've got to say...

No, I can't do it. I can't do it. I can't do it. I think I know. It's something to do with like a car or something. What? I read this comment. Because I read it in my head in an American accent, and I was thinking... What does he sound like? Who Tom Holland? Just American. From where?

When he's Spider-Man, he's from like... Queens. Queens, yeah. So he does the Queens English. Yeah, it's quite rather. He's got the bloody voice. Yeah. What really scared me off was it says,

Just the Jarcast. Gotta say that as American Tom Holland. Just the jar cast. Americans can't say cast. The cast. The cast system. Nasty. Cast. Cast.

Jarkast. Jarkast. It makes you sound like the TikTok like voice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Putting on the latest jarcast. Words like that are really hard to add nuance in an American accent. Yeah. So it would also change depending on where you are, right?

Like how would someone from Boston say that? Say jarcast. Do you mean like a Harley Quinn accent? Yeah, let's go with that. Because that's... Oh, I don't know. Because that side of the country has a more similar accent to ours. Yeah.

Because they're like, they're lazy with their a's. Uh-huh. They don't say R. They'll say ah. And what do you say? R. R. Yeah. Americans are more similar to pirates, I guess.

But depending on where and... The big USA, the big CIA. The blood and the Crips and the KKK. Ah, where's the love? You gotta beat that. Why? Which part? The last part. Yeah.

Yeah, I will. Can you Crip Walk? No, but I can memorize Will I Am lyricism. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I got pins and needles in my footsie. Yeah, I like that song as well. I got pins and needles in my footsie. I was wondering when people create a song,

how much of it is like they think of the words. and then what naturally, like, they make, they, like, they, do you know what I mean? Like, oops, I did a stinkie. Yeah. Like, where does. Yeah, yeah, exactly, well, that's exactly what I mean. And then you morph it into, you know, like, if, if you write it with, like, bars of music. Do you know what I mean?

I always thought it would be, like, the other way around, where you hear a beat or some kind of, something. Or you come up with a melody or something. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And you're like, hold up. If I say... Which one makes more sense?

It depends, because you could also, like, write lyrics and then store them away and then later be like, oh, that's like a sound that makes sense with that. I can incorporate some of this or this idea that I was going for, some theme or something. Yeah, yeah. But everyone can do it different, I guess. No. I think everyone should do it. it the same the correct way i think everyone i think everything should be done a set way the correct way yeah you know and as we know all creative fields definitely have a correct way i mean yeah

painting you know yeah you paint something that looks real or you paint shit there's it's only one way to make something look real, by making it look real. When was the last time you went to the tape mod and looked at the... Recently? Did you look at the poopoo? The toilet? The urinal. Urinal.

No. What urine? Did you go and look at the urinal? No, there was, um, there was lots of sagging, wet cloth. Oh, dripping? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, in turbine hall. I mean, like, actually in one of the exhibitions.

they got the urinal there no I didn't see a urinal I was whenever I'm in the vicinity and go into the tape modern I go to that urinal do you piss on it I imagine pissing in it and I get frustrated because I go this this is annoying

yeah and then I go but that's an emotional reaction so so it's valid so that's I don't know because that means like Deadpool is art you know just getting it an emotional reaction I mean is it not

no you don't think it is it's not it's a product really it's as artful as um an apple

charging cable you think so the whole thing what about like I'm trying to think of a devil's advocate like the choreography for the action and stuff you don't think there's like an artistry

to that even if it's it winds up in something you don't like well I mean what do you mean like if uh is an iPhone art but like

because it requires artistry It requires, like, designers and someone who can, like, picture it in 3D and make it look a certain way, so people want to buy it, and the advertisement, the filming, does that make an iPhone art? I would say, no, I guess. It feels like engineering, like a... Yeah. But many people would call that art as well, though, right? Like, architecture and mechanics and stuff like that.

so does that mean AI is art well this is what I'm saying like either everything is art or only a select few things are anything created I guess you could say but this is what then if you're religious then everyone everything is art but look at that conversation that just sparked from the urinal yeah that's why I hate it and love it and I want to you think it's valid um There's something like there is something challenging about it someone having the audacity to be like look Fuck you. I was having you I was having a similar conversation the other day about Damien Hurst and his like skull Yeah, you know it's the diamonds diamond skull. They're like the

1700s boys little boy child is is that Drake album cover that he did art that pisses me off. Yeah that makes me mad. Yeah that makes me mad Yeah, that moves you want to... Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like... I don't know, is it art? It's album art. Yeah.

It literally is. So what is it... I think it is. I think it is. It's just art that sucks. Yeah. But then it becomes so loose. What's wrong with that, though?

What's actually the problem with that? nothing there is no problem but do you know what i mean it's like the the the the packaging on cheery is art marketing it's that crossover and i guess the balance of like a movie you love mad max shury road is still a product yeah but there's more of a balance of artistry yeah yeah yeah yeah paint

that that comes down to a feeling to me yeah so then if someone had the feeling and were like man I watched Deadpool 2 and it makes me tingle then to them yeah like they can make a valid argument yeah 100% but I guess it is art so you've changed your mind so say it

I don't know I don't think I can't say what is art to you but I can say what is art to me I can't dictate to all people what art is uh-huh but I can for myself say what art is me. Deadpool 1 mixed art. Deadpool 1, a little bit art. It's like a percentage. It's a, we just need the actual technology to be able to scan film so it can give us a number. Because that's what we need is a way to be able to answer with numbers.

So we know for sure what is good and what isn't. Yeah, Mr. Robot, scan Deadpool 1. This is 3% art. Scan Deadpool 2 This is 2% No 2 gets like 20% Really, you wrote 2 over 1

I think so I think so Deadpool 3 minus 15% Because it's not a real movie It's called Deadpool Wolverine I've not even seen it That surprises me

Really No Yeah I guess we'll see after these fucknuggets Fuck nuggets Oh Chimichangas Hey everybody Chimichangas

Yeah Yeah Let me speak to the ass If they're not in a beautiful Yeah Um Um do you need to shit yourself for anything No

You get to discontinue Yeah yeah yeah We're desperately running out of time. Oh, I know. That's why I'm getting scared. I'm feeling fear. Welcome to the second half of the broadcast, we head over to the suggestion thread over on the JAR Media subreddit.

We can ask us any question you like. A little bit of this, a little bit of that. A little bit of up, a little bit of down. Questions. Half up, half down. But before we do the question, I just want to say, if you got this far into the video or audio, whatever, leave a comment saying zing me in a collection zing me in a collection and i want you to

spell it and structure it like the way i say it please um zing me in collection so we had this there are two jarlings i need to just bring up and pretty much shut down i'm banning them okay i'm bringing down the ban hammer cool um do it now not really gonna ban them but I'm gonna make fun of them right now I don't even I don't even need to because um another gowling did it for me and that's what the first thing is gonna get us going because the human sent to be guy right yeah he went he's like snapped or something last episode he went through every single question in the suggestion for I remember answering it yeah he did something

similar this week but of course he started with the human sense you'd hope that's cool which we're not gonna obviously not gonna answer um but real existing person replied to his human sense speed question saying this hey human sense speed jarling gotta say i love you and i adore this question but i can't help but feel as though you need to evolve to a new level in terms of question asking the host of a show actively ignoring your gem of a question now after the host of your show of the show actively ignoring your gem of a question for over a year and having explicitly stated they'll never answer it don't you think maybe just maybe it is time for you to explore new avenues I must admit it was a pretty clever idea to go on

last week's question thread and reply to every single question else there but it seems as though your efforts were in vain maybe you should try to hide your message in some secret way maybe post the entire thing in binary code in hopes of it tricking Alex into actually taking time and effort to decode it maybe just ask a different question I don't know I hope you keep your spirits up and keep doing what you do i just wish it were in the service of literally anything else that you're currently pursuing see you next week same time same place and i don't know if they really liked hearing that very much because they replied saying um that would have pissed me off too to be

fair they said you say that like it's an effort to copy and paste the same question every week grow up child oh they whipped out the child yeah um but they got her another reply though Okay. I suppose you're right. I am a child in the sense that I don't see the nuanced maturity in the question relating to eating scrambled ovary eggs and a human centipede. Hypothetical featuring Shane Dawson. The great effort I see in your continued posting is in relation to the deranged nature of the question. And the mental fortitude it takes to keep asking the same question for over a year. and getting no feedback other than legitimate disgust without the humorous satisfaction that you intended to reach by asking the question. Still, I maintain to you that you are vital part of every week's question thread in an actuality.

You inspire me to chase the goals I set in front of myself. One must imagine you happy, pushing the same boulder uphill and getting nowhere, because what is life about, if not continued struggle, up the same damned hill? The top never mattered, and you have found your purpose, as I hope to find mine. Jesus Yeah That was That was big

That went too far Which part That The child part That was art To me Just the back and forth Like the whole thing

Yeah Can a conversation be art Yes I now I wouldn't have said that before I think something That the internet Has opened up

Is conversation With like just zero consequence do you know what I mean like if you're face to face with someone you know

like a a sideways look or something could could kind of put you off there's enough there's enough there like socially apart from people like Eric Andre and stuff who just clearly don't feel that

but like there's there's zero consequence now so it's like their ids are just on show to each other and the whole world and I love it. The anonymity of it yes the anonymity of it the um

the five-syllable fucking word and I suppose if we're talking about jarlings that are having problems the other one is Grammy Jane who is what's the problem they're begging for help

Um Please ask me to take a break from asking questions or listening I have too much skin in the game I think I'm genuinely addicted to Jha Like it's my special interest I'm genuinely hurt when you don't answer my questions Or disgust Whether I'm an AI tendril

And whether I'm a writing project I fear you're the only people I can hear the news from and take it seriously I need to stop and focus on my own life It's crumbling around me as I wish Every week away just for that sweet Monday drop And when Monday drop comes around It's never good enough

Answering one question inspires me to go harder Ignoring me makes me debilitatingly upset And fuels bitterness Too much skin in the game I need help My life is falling apart legitimately And I'm ignoring everything for jar Okay, like stop then

Yeah, why don't you just relax Yeah It's like a dumbass AI tendril, I love that. We talked about that, right? The AI tendrils. Yeah. Yeah, and that is what Grammy is most likely,

if not a writing project for a... Yeah. In fact, I assume most... I assume all questions are. What was the other option? I've narrowed it down to about 80%. Yeah. A writing project. I'm thinking like a, you know, like training...

um for large language models type thing yeah yeah yeah i'm sorry to hear that man um chin up yeah get i'd say get grinding boy yeah um oh man um oh man well i i was trying to ignore it but the most written in thing topic of discussion was Elon related i'm just gonna do it jimmy loves Fungstad can be the one I pick. I know you guys have expressed your design to not talk about Musk, but please mention him banging out a fucking Sig Heil in day one of his presidency. It wasn't, I don't know, I personally don't mind. I like talking about how cringy he is.

It's more the audience who I feel, don't like hearing it. I don't know if they're Musk fans or... Well, that's my issue with anyone having an issue. you with us talking like if it's boring then I'm sorry but if if you're like if you don't want to hear it because it contradicts your feelings and beliefs about him then fuck you like he's done too much now you can't you yeah way too much like if this wasn't the the final straw then I don't know what will be some of the things people are saying to like defend it like yeah yeah he's autistic so he doesn't know

So What? He runs X He owns X Yeah Right Which has turned into Like a hardcore right wing

Echo Chamber Where if you're not right wing enough You'll get banned Or if you If you claim that Elon Isn't an epic fucking gamer The best gamer If you have the gall

To say that Elon isn't The most supreme of gamers Then you're not allowed on X. The OG, the original gamer. Yeah. Yeah. The OM, the original Musk.

Last week was one of those episodes where I was struggling to pick the title just because there was too many good options. Because that was one of them, I think. I can't remember what I called the last one, actually. Do you remember? Fuck. Misa.

Is it instinct. It's an instinct. Misa. It's so fucking cringgy. Yeah. But that one, there was green, create uh-huh uh suckle up i saw loads of comments saying cream create yeah that was the midpoint one right yeah yeah yeah yeah and um yeah the o g parentheses original gatesy yeah

so you set up a camera on the ground and animals just go to it yeah i guess um which i've told you already but I set up a camera to watch pacefully yeah yeah when um I go somewhere for a few hours just to see what she does and I'll put a screenshot from it on the screen with within like two minutes of leaving she like walks up to the camera and just like stares into it deadpan and looks like a fish yeah like her eyes looking completely different directions why are you screaming she scratched you yeah she's digging in Billy's digging in, everybody. Just relax.

I think we wanted to relax around here. Reeling it back to Musk, though. Do you believe it was an intentional signal? Um, I don't know, because I saw a bunch of, like, videos and clips from that event where he was tweaking out. Like, doing all these strange movements and... Yeah. I don't know what was going on there. I don't know if...

He's trying to do the, like, the Hitler in the Olympics audience tweaking out on him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I forgot about that. He's doing, like, the exact same thing. Yeah, so I don't know. I really don't know. I think, uh, I think you can't,

you can't like him either way. Either he's a total moron. Like an actual, just insanely stupid guy who doesn't realize how that could be perceived. Uh-huh. Like, what was he trying to do? Like, a, let's go.

He was doing, like, uh, my heart goes out to you. Oh, right. Why didn't he do two fingers and do like a piece thing, then? Yeah. I don't know, I'm, it was one day in as of that happening. And I'm just kind of like, I'm not even surprised. It's like a flat line. Like, oh.

Well, what's coming next week, then? Yeah. Well, uh, we got four years of, like, every night. news article just being the craziest shit you've ever seen because i i saw last night um article pops up american judge has had to like stop trump in his tracks because trump wanted to change the law where if you're born in america you're not necessarily oh yeah yeah yeah birthright yeah birthright um that's like that is insane that's crazy for like one day in for a president to like a tenant of like America

yeah I mean it's in the constitution right he he stopped it the judge stopped it on the basis that it was unconstitutional and it's like and the the January 6th guys

like immediately pardoned it's so unshameful like it it's total mask off um there's yeah there's no pretending anymore. I don't know how it can be defended.

Yeah, um, let's just do a couple more here before we wrap up. We're on a bit of a time crunch this time. Do this quick one from loser 0-1-1-1-1. Question for Alex, tips on the jaw-hap. How do you get your boeing so clean and vibrant? Are there any special tricks you've learned so far? Bear-bear-itchy down there. Oh, probably go to the doctor for that. If you're itchy or something. i'd say um it's all in the balls is it weirdly enough yeah so if you're a lady i'm sorry

but it's all it all kind of comes from the balls weirdly is it um like a temperature thing then um like obviously in colder temperatures there's shrinkage the truth is it wasn't too recently where I upgraded my jaw up to one that's way more meaty and has a punch you know, it smacks hard this one My previous one was doable but just rougher

I don't know maybe just the bigger your balls the worst player you are or something I see so I hope that helps Ah There's one

A genuine nice one I want to do Oh Had to get this one in Because this was a Just a nice one from yawn mower It's a bit long But bear with Hello Jha

First of all Sorry if anything I write Sounds a little strange I struggled to put my thoughts to words But I wanted to really really Thank Jha for the laughter and joy You've given me For over ten years

I remember stumbling across Aichi's brain Brony video back when I was in year 9 of high school and you quickly became one of my favorite YouTubers I found memories of coming home after school to watch your latest upload on my shitty Dell laptop From your phase of uploading weekly and sometimes daily laughing at the Aquaman and Kite man jokes You would sprinkle in your videos giving me something to look forward to after school I'll never forget the cool cat daddy's Sorry Derry I can't fucking read today Derek Savage saga and the fight you've put up with

It may have been a real headache for you but seeing you triumph in the end made it all worth it. Little did I know that greater things were to come. Of course, there was the original JAR channel with the classic Blabs. One of my personal favourites being the short hair versus long hair James Blab and absolute bangers like the Halloween video, the cook king and umtizula. Videos such as these have become a core memory of mine and I'll always come back to these videos every now and now and then as they remind me of simpler times. Then you guys decided to make your own Yogs pod. I want to say that you guys started doing your podcast before people saying everyone has a

podcast now proving that jar has always been ahead of the curve i'd forgotten about that it's true it's true when did that become like a thing i feel like when joe rogan really got big yeah because it became like a comedian thing yeah if you want to become a comedian yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i guess i don't thought about that uh i swear it feels like only yesterday i was watching you boys sitting on the floor with alex behind the camera conducting the madness that were those early JAR casts, then you guys actually getting chairs and eventually couches with your own mics. Quotes as good as I'm not an anime character, I'm James, from as silly as question everything,

learn nothing. We'll have some kind of meaning that have stuck with me from my time growing up. So much in my life has changed, good and bad, and just like Jha, but Jha has always been a consistent part of my life since it started. I cannot say there's another YouTuber or slash channel I've watched throughout my later years of high school, all of college, and what I presume. the rest of my adult life. Jarl's really something special to me and many others I would presume.

I've only just started to subscribe to the Patreon, wishing I could have done so from the beginning. I always enjoyed and laughed at the absurd yet hilarious names of the community as you read them out, wishing I could be a part of it. But the times finally come where I've been able to give back, even if it's just a little, I really wish I could give more as you guys truly deserve it. Hopefully hearing some of the things I've said make you boys feel a little better, knowing that you've consistently been making one of the guy's life. At least one more guy's life, more enjoyable, love to all of you.

That was written fine. I wouldn't. So many people do that, would they preface it? I'm sorry if I sound like a dumb, idiot, moron who can't speak. And then they just write something completely fine. All the mess-ups are on my end. I'll take responsibility for that one. That's lovely there.

That's a cool one. It's actually an insane amount of time. Yeah. You don't really think about it? put it into perspective until it's presented to you like that, I guess? Because it's, I think it's 10 years this year.

Yeah, wait. I think it might be 26. When, what year did Davey Bowie die? 2016, right? I think it might be 16. So, 2026. Yeah, no, that makes sense. So, I mean, nine years.

Just nine, yeah, not far off. Yeah, I mean. Just crazy. Big chunk of time. Yeah. No, it's a lovely comment, though. Yeah, I kept thinking about that because podcast to me was something that my impression was that not that many people cared about, but something within the mid-2010s. It was just like, I first heard about it from when, like, BBC started doing them and stuff like that.

Right. You were obsessed with Spill. Yeah. That was like a movie review podcast. Yeah. Which I've kind of found more through video, though. I started more absorbing them like a podcast. Yeah.

And then just over time, I don't know. They just got really, really popular. Uh-huh. And it's like a whole avenue for... I don't know. What people want to do with it, and there's like a meme and stuff now. Some things you just can't predict. Like, it's just the way they're going to go.

Like, would you predict, like, podcasts to be this thing that now are considered, like, a threat to, like... Can sway elections? Yeah, sway elections as, like, political power has got... Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would have never, never, especially the, the stupid, stupid stuff that Joe Rogan was doing, like, five years ago. Yeah. Like, it was just pure schlock, like, fun, zero stakes. goofy entertainment um yeah because uh i haven't listened to that show in a long time no but i

actually did listen to one the other day um i listened to the mel gibson one in full oh really because i was just like this for the whole thing yeah is he um he's not as crazy outside of those few clips so mel Gibson like he yeah but just a yeah weird fucking guy I think I don't know yeah I mean he's he's he's done some pretty whack stuff that guy um yeah the last ones I watched were just the political like like just before the American election Trump one musk won yeah yeah I saw that Trump it just rage bait I guess like it obviously it's a an echo chamber it's a um it holds political power for all the people listening and not listening to get pissed off

yeah but also it works as entertainment like art that makes you feel a negative emotion damn i i that throws a little wrench in there does that mean like the dave reuben videos are art no because i i i i scanner say like what percentage of it is art a dave reuben that's like a half percent they're they're weak source art um joe rogan though i'd say is a bit more because like i i listened to the full long-ass donald trump fucking podcast just to annoy myself yeah and that that that feeling was like so vivid and like an experience in my head I'm like screaming at

the what I'm hearing um and I guess it made me feel something pretty powerful when you think about it so so you're saying Joe Rogan is an artist and not for the comedy I guess he is one of the

the final comedians standing on the planet uh huh um Identity is found as this one I want to talk about Have you heard about this guy on YouTube that goes by JAR Just a Robot That is currently under fire for defending a PDF file

It's funny drama and there have been several Several times when listening to people cover it And they say something along the lines of a JAR defended a PDF file And I laugh hysterically But I'm also sad that this guy is ruining the good name of Jha I don't know if you've ever fucking seen this guy I've never seen this guy I think it was

just a robot he's got like his rant sonar right that looks like i think it was when i first found this guy um and saw the way he was using his rant sona was like i'm gonna stop doing that really yeah yeah like no like i've got to distance myself from i look it up yeah yeah put just a robot um what on youtube on youtube yeah and read out some of the like titles of his videos or whatever to give a little idea. He's not Jarre, okay? He's just a robot. Did you see it like what I see? Did you see what I'm saying? Yeah Oof. Like what? Give me some of these titles. Hang on, I've got to get past all the because it's all the like commentary drama. Yeah, yeah. My side of the story. What is the art community

Wait, what is the art commentary community and how did they? Amazon's fallout almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter. Why everything you know about the multiverse is wrong. Why is the Illamations drama still going? The hopeless peaches drama is the dangerous. So lots of commentary stuff? Yeah. Yeah.

There's a few of those, there were a few of those Ransona characters. There was one that was like a, like a, a dragon or something, and they made, like, crazy fucking videos. Like, they just have these insane fiery takes and act as if, like, you're crazy for, um, no, my great. It's insane what still goes on on YouTube. Because, like, there was a Wild West, but, like, the Wild West is... It's been tamed by the Bigel Oil companies. Well, kind of. There's still, like, like, cattle rustle.

and stuff they've gone over to like kick and yeah that's that's like a whole other thing but but I mean like YouTube is still pretty wild the shit people say and um

you know in the comments of YouTube short specifically as well yeah fuck me I don't know why they're like disproportionately crazy um yeah

I feel like any short um like TikTok style thing is just it's definitely it's a completely different vibe to like YouTube comments mm-hmm it's it's it's like um stereotypes like everything is everything's extremely surface level because like yeah these things you're being delivered on yeah yeah you don't have an investment in it or something it's not like oh the new week of jar

where it's like you know what it is kind of whereas if you just been delivered a random TikTok in your algorithm yeah likely to leave a comment saying this fucking sucks and I want you to die because of it um yeah I noticed that on the jar TikTok when we did that for a little bit uh-huh like some of them got wedged in the algorithm and like the comments are oh my god they're mean really angry yeah I remember I remember you reading a few um who are these 20-year-old boomers yeah yeah it's weird it's insane I keep getting um my my algorithm's all these like ranking videos

it'll be like top five it a lot of it in shorts in shorts yeah my my like normal algorithm for my normal YouTube videos is like loads of tier lists at the moment just coming to yeah I mean that that's that is a matter yeah like it's it's super

popular style of video but it would be like um the who are the prank guys which ones you know like sal those prank guys that impractical jokes

yeah and it'll be like top five sow moments right right right right just goes through some quick sal moments but I've been I've been getting loads that are the the TikTok CEO when he was being

like interrogated in court oh yeah but a bunch of them are fake it would be just no it'll be a video of him and then someone doing like a comedic voice over like asking him a crazy question like if I have had

in while on TikTok can TikTok see what's happening in my brain right so it's like obviously a joke but it will be a top five moment with real ones as well and then people are reacting to all of them as if all of them are real and that all these questions were asked and it's like the the level of um like gullibility of some people because of this form of and entertainment I just yeah I really believable I really hope that the people like commenting on it are like tiny minority the people that they yeah they almost definitely are but it's like how much is it even subconsciously affecting especially

like young minds because I think about like the dumb shit I like started believing when I was like 19 or 20 just from like my out the way less sophisticated algorithm back then 10 years ago and like yeah what would the 15 year old's like algorithm start looking like on shorts and even if you're not leaving fucked up comments or engaging in any way yeah yeah absorbing parts of it you're like you are what you eat but you're also what you see in here um so i i think it's why there was such a a huge revolution of like right wing rhetoric. Like it

people got like exposed to it and then hadn't heard like other countering ideas like the rise of I guess was it was it pre-Trump? It was pretty much perfectly in line. Yeah. The like rise

of the anti-SGW. The online because I feel like that wasn't really it. Politics on online didn't exist you know like YouTube that yeah YouTube was gaming it was like pranks and stuff like nobody thought you could like make a career out of yeah yeah that was considered strange until 2010s maybe like yeah yeah later in the 2010s I would say and like with how easily I was politically manipulated no state the amount of shit I see now

and you have to like actively be switched on to be like countering it in your head um yeah yeah you have to work in yeah um it's funny how that what things change and what things

stay the same as far as the algorithms and the the way discussions come back round and like loop on themselves um but then things die off like I wasn't thinking about it so I watched this update video of some it's not even a channel I watched just some guy who'd been daily vlogging for like 15 years and he just stopped doing it recently in the past few days because he's like burnt out or whatever um how the fuck did he not burn out sooner that's insane I don't know it was a crazy video but in the other one he was talking about like his gaming channel and he was kind of talking about how let's plays

they're not really a thing anymore they're kind of dying yeah um yeah only like the biggest of the biggest like your game grumps or whatever um were able to continue doing that but anyone who's sub he had like a hundred k subs or something so it's obviously way different compared to five million yeah whatever um they'll be fine um but yeah it used to just be everything yeah and they're like short animations and the let's plays and the 10 minute let's plays it was more for like everything was more just entertainment now everything's got to have like uh specifically it was way less produced though as well yeah which is that's gone out the window where um just everyone has like pierce morgan has a like a daily

youtube show now he's like all these big figures have figured out oh this makes way more sense and i have complete control over it yeah yeah uh Um, yeah, big investors, let's have a big studio and just do what we're doing on TV, but in our own way. Yeah, probably, as time goes on, we'll be seen by more people through that, that avenue, you know? I think it is what, some of the stats, like, YouTube stats are wild as far as, like, how many people watch it and, uh, definitely younger generations, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they definitely watch it more than TV or stuff. Yeah, but they won't be watching, like, a whole episode. No, it's more, it's a weird kind of passive watching where, like, you have Squid Game, you're watching Squid Game, but at the same time on your phone, you're watching a review of Squid Game.

Yeah. The type thing. Yeah, while also, like, playing phone games or scrolling, like. Yeah. Yeah, I'm susceptible to that exact thing, pretty much. I'm susceptible to having extremely bad Ria I don't know how I was to end it

so I thought I'd just yeah yeah that's normal if I'm being honest I actually haven't suffered with Ria I don't know very long time I sat down to poo like five times yesterday bit of poo came out every time never felt empty that's I hate that

fucking sucked it was really bad like loads of little poops never satisfied. He's got on that Sillium husk. Got some husk in you. I'm going.
