is there a weird echo on all of the calls?

Rorie said in chat during the livestream that they ran into some technical issues getting the calls to broadcast through cleanly. Jan is the one who is usually set up to handle the calls but he's been busy with the Keighley event so I imagine they had to improvise for this week's show.

This went places I was not expecting it to go.

Dan being on the dump truck is both perfect and incredibly dangerous.

I just watched this again and noticed Jess takes a selfie with floating head Dan.

Incredible.

I live in the midwest, but luckily didn't have juggalos in my school. I did eventually work in a Best Buy and helped a couple of Juggalos IN FULL MAKEUP buy some CDs (you'll never guess which ones).

Was it Rod Stewart?

Or Toxic by Britney Spears?

Juggalos are big Vanessa Carlton fans, right? Maybe one of her CDs?

I too think this was great.

Historic tidbit for the people who haven't been here since the start: most of the early GB quick looks were sub-20 minutes long with some of them under 10 minutes. It took until around 2012-2013 for quick looks to regularly be more than a half hour long.

The Youtube version of this video's name hurts my soul. It reminds me of... him. The unpleasant one.

Mission accomplished.

Makes me sad about where GB will be in 50 years. I don't mean that in the doomsayer sense, just that nothing lasts forever and when I'm 70 I doubt I'll be able to rewatch the Deadly Premonition Endurance Run.

I just went and looked, and all of the Endurance Run videos are in that GB quick looks collection on archive.org. That collection appears to be more than just quick looks. So as long as archive.org still exists you're good.

Pouring one out for Screened (the movie and TV website Rorie and Alex were the main people on in the Whiskey Media days), which fits this topic perfectly. There's an archive of some of the videos from it on Youtube but a lot of that content is lost to time along with their wiki that a bunch of people poured time into.

On a different note, I've run into accounts on Twitter talking about and sharing stuff from "the old days" (mostly pre-social media dominated internet. Stuff from like 2000 to 2010 or so) and some of that stuff is pretty rough to go back to. I went through a Twitter account of old memes and videos and it seemed like every fifth or sixth piece of content was problematic in some way. Casual racism and homophobia showed up a lot mid-2000s internet. There's still stuff from back then on Youtube that is pretty eye-opening to watch these days.
