Me too. I felt like I was sitting in Van’s backyard with them. That’s the definition of good editing.
Without Van adopting Casey and including him with what he was doing with Tom, let’s just say the likeliness of Casey doing what he did on KZread is slim. Van keep pushing bro. You’re building your kingdom big dawg.

My boy ❤️
This is easily one of the most valuable KZread videos I have watched in a LONG time. Van's ability to articulate his struggle, his search for his kingdom, his desire for "success" (in the sense of his sibling rivalry with his brother who's buying houses, taking trips, etc.). I cannot tell you how much of what Van went through and IS going through spoke precisely to my experience as someone who, with his brother, has been making videos and pursuing a successful life as a creative, as an artist, as an entrepreneur. I'm in my studio right now getting ready to make another KZread video, another video for my 7 Patrons... BUILDING something just like Van has as he (and I) continues to try to figure out the secret(s) of this life, this existence... What a WONDERFUL video. So wonderful I'm thinking of breaking it down as a Patreon vid to relate it to my own experience and the experiences of my subscribers who are also pursuing a life as a Creator. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

i think it is done at Van house. But number of cameras and mics have increased from their car videos.
I love van and I love his work. I would absolutely say that his work that he puts pit there has always left me with a feeling I'm so invested with his own view and feelings because I relate to them so much. So many of the working with hands and the world is extremely relatable
Love this style of interview! It highlighted the uniqueness of Van while changing up the scene a bit. Also, love the outro music/ b-roll cuts. Can't wait for the studio tour!
Colin & Samir, y'all are continually stepping up the game for podcasting and video content. Excellent, excellent work!
Love Van’s approach to creativity. I especially liked his comparison at the end to a kid stuck inside doing the multiplication table while everyone else is out on recess. Keep up the great work Van!
Oh my gosh!!! I love this rawness of this video. Like Van, being genuine about his journey! More interviews like this, please!!!
I literally thought this was a Van video until I saw the intro and was genuinely happy to see 2 creators I love come together. About time...

This has to be one of the best interviews this channel has done, the quality of the interview is top notch
DUDE! I swear you guys have a pulse on whats rising and whats up with the creator community. every creator that I happen to watch religiously for the past few weeks you guys have them on seemingly the very next week. it’s eerie at this point lol. love Van’s videos. amazing interview. been watching your content from the start, this channel has become the staple of my monday nights for sure. so happy with what you guys are doing. keep it up, you guys are the hub of the creator community at this point. perhaps i’ll see you down the road 🤙🏽 cheers!
As a small creator with just 195 subs I can attest even a little under 200 people believing in your form of feeling transmission through KZread videos is humbling! Beautiful conversation , thanks for this.
What a great interview. Van is such an interesting dude. I'm excited to see the studio tour later this week!
One of the most philosophical episodes by far. It's interesting to hear Van's perspective on why he's making the Spirited Man and slowly discovering the intersection between what he wants vs what audiences want. I'd love to see a follow up after that "year of R&D" to see what went well and what he had to change about himself
I will never get tired of saying that the queality of the content and the thought behind it is just amazing, Thanks Colin and Samir!
It’s interesting how usually you wanna cut dead space for retention but it is so interesting to see how Van goes through his thought process and articulate his points. His way of thinking is genuinely unique
I've been following Casey and Van since their 'Science Experiments' days. Huge influence on 18 year old me before I even thought about being a professional creative. Was pumped to see the things Van has been doing on youtube. Great interview.

28:40 is such a great analogy for trying to become a creator. feeling behind, trying to work hard enough and fast enough to reach that fleeting window of opportunity in time. van is great!
Big fan of Van - thanks guys. There's really no one like him, so any kind of exploration of his art and/or thought processes is always fascinating to watch. Great vid, guys!
Love the show and the depth these interviews are getting into, feels like a real dialogue that isn’t just promo to boost someone’s popularity and awareness. Keep up the great work!
This one really took me by surprise. I have been watching Van for a while, didn't think he would be on your radar.
Maybe it’s the day you caught me on by dropping this now. It’s been a few weeks of learning Solidworks and woodworking, trying to design and build useful stuff for myself. But man was that a great interview. His way of explaining what art is is exactly what I feel it should be described as. Awesome work, guys.
everytime i see Van's interview it's like entering the rabbit hole, always gives you a thousand other interesting ideas to investigate. super!! thanks
Totally awesome episode. I love and admire the depth and meaning in every question and answer. Thanks Colin and Samir!…and Van of course!
Amazing. Such a fresh perspective on what is 'art', content creation, YT as a platform, etc
the jellysmack catalog licensing thing is BLOWING my mind - i submitted my channel, super interested to see what they think it's worth haha. said it on twitter but i absolutely loved this, the vibe, the interview style, the LEVEL of this conversation, like wow - this was a dream convo to sit in on.
Really love this interview format you guys are working on, watching you build your interviewing skills as well as the video format is 🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻
Guys, this was INCREDIBLE. Thank you so much. So much to think about from this episode, definitely one for a re-watch.
I love how selfless Van is for all his contributions & he now truly (deservedly) have his own kingdom! 👑 Another wonderful video podcast guys! I’m so proud to be a subscriber & that in itself is a social currency fr 💯
Been watching for a few years and the quality get better each video, good stuff guys
This is really just the most innovative channel on KZread. You guys continue to push the boundary from the TLN days!
shoutout to the Editor and Crew, the blue of his shirt is incredible. the Color grading and framing of this interview floored me. Great fucking Job. This Conversation is really special to me because Van and Casey are 2 people who inspired me to strike out on my own. your questions are so thoughtfull and humble I just love it. I just discovered your Channel and im already binge watching EPs. 5 fuckin stars.
Ah yeah, been waiting for this one! Thanks for getting Van on the show at last 👏🏻
Fucking great. Your videos keep getting better. I can't tell you how much they help me and make feel supported and not alone in this journey of establishing an independent practice. Thank you Colin, Samir and the team. It is unbelievable how difficult it has been. It is crazy how lonely it has been. Almost anyone that I talked over the years to help me or guide me has said it can not be done. Almost all of them said no, yet I have not been able to let these urge go. The urge to create something. The calling to share these feeling through multimedia. Your videos make me feel sane. They all keep telling me I am crazy. 🙏🏼
he's so honest that is a breath of fresh air hearing somone on youtube be real about what they want from life
The ending with the music is perfect the feeling that you're brining is so sick I felt that feeling when I had the first 1000 subs. Love your story's and how you show other story's thx for making stuff
Colin. Samir. Van. Thank you all for this video. Sincerely. My jaw literally dropped open in astonished realization, no less than three times.
Didn't know about you guys.. only knew about Van... but that's the way this stuff works, thanks for expanding my world!
Absolutely amazing, and I only wish this conversation would go longer. Thank you for doing this guys!
A real piece of art about a real artist. Loved this eppy learning about Van, never heard his story before. Thanks for this one boys 🤝🏻💙

That was amazing! Van's channel is one of my top 3 favs and I never miss a video.
Van Neistat and his passion for making is one reason I started my youtube channel. The need for self expression, self reliance and self discovery is something which doesn't fit a regular 9-5 job and we are extremely lucky to have tools like KZread and Patreon to both support us and other like minded individuals. What time to be alive.
Three of the most fascinating, inspiring people I have encountered in decades. Thank you.
Ohhhhh this is exciting. Been waiting for this to happen. Thank you!!
That was so great, finished watching it at one go. I love Van already! On to the next!
waiting this video for so long, thank you!
Third time watching this. Easily the best talk I’ve seen about the platform so far. A ton of gold in here. It’ll be one I keep coming back to!
This was so great, best interview with Van that I have seen so far!
Another really good video podcast. Big love to all the content on this channel @Colin&Samir.
Van Neistat has the best storytelling I have ever come across on KZread. Only other person who gets close is Beau Miles. If anyone has any other recommendations, please let me know, because I love that stuff.
I think this was one of the best episodes in history of KZread. Even music choice at the end was perfect. ( sorry for commenting twice, couldn’t resist it)
This fulfilled man is happy that Colin and Samir sat down with the spirited man and stepped inside his creative mind. This was amazing good job guys!
Great video guys! Conversation and information disucssed with Van, so good.
Super interesting to follow your conversation and seeing your point of views! Keep producing this content - it’s awesome! Thank you so much.
Loved it! Van as such a unique perspective on his creator journey, it is fascinating and refreshing!
neistat brothers rock. their journey is humbling I have the greatest respect for anyone who over ones all the issues in their life
the ending section was so well done, and Van Neistat(didnt know him), man, I think this was one where you guys spoke way less, and 85% was covered by him, and I believe he has so much on his head, it seems like, he's not able to fully materialise his visuals with words. I felt like he had a projector that only he could see.
Thank you for this video. Van needs more appreciation and praise for his work.
Loved this vid so much guys, great stuff as always!
Van honesty, shows through in this interviews. He's really a true spirit.
Loved the video...So happy to see Van talking about his journey.
I’m ashamed to say I really didn’t know Van had his own KZread channel, but you better believe I hit that subscribe button to his channel a few minutes after starting this video! Amazing content as always Colin and Samir! 👏
Never thought another creator would fascinate me like Casey does...but Van does. Been hooked on his channel since he started it
One of my favourite videos you guys have posted so far!
Van is such an amazing creator! I admire his mind and work so much!
Van has such a great way of looking at things.
Great to see this previously mentioned "experiental" video finally being uploaded. Great interview. Really curious where youtube takes Van's work in a couple of years. He's going to be one of the creators we'll "grow up" together with - if it makes sense. Just like his brother is for millions.
Such an action-packed first 45 seconds... well done boys 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It's better to be loved for being yourself and sharing yourself with the world than being loved for being something your not. Van clearly, through his relationship with story telling and videography is unique and doesn't necessarily conform to what a successful KZread channel "ought to be" however his success shows the clear admiration of individuality on this platform.
These brothers are the most fascinating dynamic duo. Great piece boys!🔥

Amazing video!!! Been waiting on this one for so long. You guys are great interviewers and Van is great at keeping me engaged with anything he says hahaha edit: I do also want to say you guys are seriously pushing the boundary of this format and the elements of documentary filmmaking & video journalism you bring to the table are just outstanding. Shoutout to your videographers & editors for really making this much more than just a sit-down interview 🙏
Holy crap! When Van talked about Alymayer's philosophy on art, I had a light bulb moment - that's exactly how I've viewed art ever since I started creating. I passionately believe that good art is art that the artist can transfer emotions into the viewer, listener or however it is perceived, regardless of the emotion. I think good art requires humanity behind it as well, which is why I'm not at all afraid of AI in the art world. This was a brilliant talk like always!
Ive been waiting for this. YES!
Great job on the production Quality. Good stuff!
Another amazing production to raise the bar - love getting Chris involved too! A topical guest would be @Peter McKinnon talking about his upload schedule and his recent struggle with balancing his feature length ‘passion-project’ documentary.
Big fan of this episode, super inspiring!
Really enjoyed this video. Both content wise and the style. Keep up the great work.
Be cool if Van lets you film all your podcasts here, would be a perfect set!!
This was just fantastic!!!!... Thank you.
These videos makes our days better
Good interview Samir. Nice to see you there as well Colin.
I remember you teased this in January. Been waiting on this one for a while!
Thank you for this, guys.
This is a definitive C&S video to me - nowhere else has the case been made more clearly for why this show is really phenomenal and valuable for me.
Such an interesting discussion - way more complex than I originally anticipated. Great video.
Incrível ver a perspectiva do Van 🌟
dudddeeeee. I was so hyped when I saw this. Love your videos.
