eef was SO close to having another skrittle moment
I think if I ever saw Sean or Ethan in person I would probably just panic and shout "I'M LEAKING"

@tirananniel16 Having watched youtube for a while and hear creators talk about their fan interactions, this is a surefire way to make them feel very uncomfortable in public.
Yeah a different themed interactive segment might keep things interesting. so not just bad advice, maybe reading comments one week, reviews another week, or ask for stories, confessions, hypotheticals, would you rather, maybe a fanart appreciation every now and then as well?

For the "bad advice" section at the end of the video you say a topic that then we send questions for so each episode has unique questions and answers 1:13:32

Facts
I FULLY agree that cringe needs to come back. It was weird but authentic and fun
I can't wait to pour myself a glass of egg nog, cozy up by the fire, and put on my new favorite holiday song, "I'll Be Hard For Christmas".
Seán's like "speech" of being told he was childish hit so hard right now. I've struggled growing up knowing when to be a kid because of personal situations and it's so interesting watching him go through such a similar thing( I really connect) love you guys, very much comfort creators
My theory about "blaze your glory" is that someone on staff listened to too much Bon Jovi and suggested it as a joke because they know he's running it into the ground
The amount of Unus Annus references in this video makes my heart just ❤❤❤
I like the idea of a rotation. So do bad advice every 3 weeks or so, and then have other segments on the off weeks. That means that when you introduce the segments you can be more specific and can have little theme songs. This combined with theming each week would be cool. You should also have a doc with all of the video ideas that you come up with and either spin a wheel or get the audience to pick what you do next. Obviously you could be chaotic and do something completely different, but its another way to involve all of us.
I have just finished listening to the episode on Spotify, and now I will watch the episode. 😂

This always comes out on the day I'm free, at the time I get bored. Like, literally prime brain leaking time.
Sean: "I am too childish. I am too goofy. I am too energetic. I should calm down. I'm a 30 year old man." You're one of my 64 year old mother's favorite KZreadrs. She's about twice your age. I think you're fine.

The only reason why I would want bad advice to continue is cause I sent one in 😂😂. But I do rlly like the interaction between creator and fan base, so a new segment that could involve that would be fantastic!!
Sean talking about having to stay alert during calls is so me, i have a basket of different fidgets near my desk for all my zoom lectures and random phone calls and it is the smartest thing I've done for myself
“Rockin around the cockmas tree” might be a good idea for your Christmas EP.

“Cocking around the Assmass Tree”?
I loved when Ethan and Sean said "its leaking time" and leaked all over the place 10/10 best podcast ever
The end segment could be an authentic question time just called Odd Queries. They'd have to be very specific to allow for funny responses both ironically and seriously
Love the "bad advice" but maybe keep its for when you have guests or once every 5 pods or something because im very excited to see what else you leakers can come up with
Please keep the advice segment because its probably the part I look forward to most. On another hand ethans "skirttle" took me back.
I really enjoy the Bad Advice segment and would be bummed to see it go altogether, however if you're running out of steam doing it on a weekly basis maybe on a monthly basis/once every four weeks would serve you guys better? Would also give time both for questions to accumulate and to vet for the best ones comedic potential-wise.
The bad advice segment could turn into listener stories? Like the week before ask for submissions about a random subject and read your favorites of the week. The first week could even be poop stories lol.
Time for some midnight leakage with the boys.
I remember Ethan getting abducted, it's when Anthony and Ian needed his Taylor Swift tickets and summoned a demon to interrogate him.
Just want to announce that I'm listening to this ep to keep me focused while sewing assless chaps

...CHAPS ARE ASSLESS... Saying assless chaps is just as pointless as saying A.T.M. machine.
36:59 something that Seán could do for this years Thankmas is make a game around all the add reads and maybe make the guests do some of them since it'll one, be entertaining for the stream and two, you'll get the add reading segment done with. The game could be something as little as just a simple raffle or something more random/unexpected like the guest asks Seán 21 questions for the add read. just an idea and hope yall have a good day.
Good one lads. On bad advice: the thing about the segment I like is the audience participation, I think every podcast benefits from that. It for sure doesn't need to be bad advice though.
Ethan, once again, being so relatable when he was buffering to say self aware
ive been listening to this podcast at work, every single time the noise plays before an ad, i get jumpscared
The bad advice segments is one my favorite parts of this podcast, always looking forward to it at the end of the podcast
The septic heapass podcast is back baby
I love the bad advice segment and makes me laugh everytime with what creativity comes out of your mouths 😂 I hope you guys do keep it ❤
15:38 "Blaze your glory" references the phrase "going out in a blaze of glory", which valorizes a spectacular but premature death. I wonder if that's foreshadowing for Twitter's (or X's) own end.
I enjoy the bad advice segment. Untrained professionals everywhere have cornered the market on giving (bad) good advice. The Brain Leak podcast is the only place I know of that will give me the bad advice and own it.
"Nuts roasting on an open fire" would be a good Christmas parody song
made up adventures about BB and Spencer would be a fun bit from time to time
On the bad advice question, I've enjoyed it so far and definitely think it's been a funny segment however I have nothing against replacing it with something else! I can see that the bad advice might get repetitive and a bit predictable like consistently using gaslighting as an answer haha. Anyways I definitely trust you guys if you think you can come up with something better 😁
I think you should do the monthly advice on the last Wednesday of each month, if you do keep it. Or at least do something special on the last Wednesday of every month. Like a QnA or something
@EternalGamingNet
10 ай бұрын
Once a month would keep it semi fresh and give them time to gather the best questions, either for bad advice or Q&A.
While I don't think Bad Advice should go away completely, it'd be cool to see what other segments you guys can come up with
51:40 it's so incredibly healing to hear jack being so understanding and being able to articulate peoples differences so well. I know mark may not have meant it but alot of what he said during the unnus annus stuff just seemed like misunderstanding and being frustrated by ethans adhd traits. As someone whos been isolated almost my whole life for having a different neurology it hurt alot but I tried to understand because this stuff annoys us too and part of me does understand, it just hurts to hear how harshly people feel about things you cannot control and would if you were able to. Just know if you're struggling you are never alone and you don't deserve to go through that. People get caught up in their own life and get frustrated at the slightest inconvenience, its nothing youre doing wrong, I pinky promise.

WOOOOHOOOO ANOTHER EPISODEEEE :) LOVE U GUYS SO MUCH
1000% support smothering the part of yourself that cringes and embracing what makes you happy!
Im super excited for this year's thankmas!!! I absolutely love thankmas its become a tradition for me and my friends!! Also about the "going back to the way it was" kind of videos, I always turn into an immature child when i game with friends, from monopoly and barging my first child for rent on marvin gardens to having a 20 game losing streak in fall guys, gaming with friends is the best!!! Whatever yall decide we will be here to enjoy what you've made!!! Much love❤❤❤❤❤
Love even the ads segments of brain leak. How do they make it so entertaining???
i genuinely think if ethan practiced singing, specifically a deeper-throat-singing, that he would sound amazing in a solo or choir
As your audiance, I am 100% with anything you guys do. Not because I support you 100% or because you'd be perfect, but because you are people. And you should do what you enjoy doing. Because that is where the entertainment value lies. I don't watch them because they'd enjoy doing something I don't like. Yeah, sure, Sean had a break. I missed him, but I could just watch his old videos. Or go watch anything else. Yeah, Ethan doesn't want to return to gaming being the bulk of his content. But you can just listen to him do other things or go watch anything else. And if he feels like putting a game on once in a while I'll watch that. I think older I become (I am basically Sean's age), more open I am to enjoying whatever other people are enjoying - less settled in my ways or better at finding what suits me. And I think next generation is also super supportive in that way. So you guys do what you like, you already have an audience, and support new creators you agree with.
Awesome podcast jack and Ethan .
I love the bad advice segment, personally, but you guys are creative and you can do whatever you like. We'll love it either way!
I like to have these episodes playing in the background while I'm working on different projects or cleaning around my house. You guys always make me laugh. ❤
Something still can be interactive to replace the bad advice, like memes from the subreddit, comment reads, confessions or spooky stories depending on the feee
Guys guys please The bad advice segment is the best part of the podcast imo (as in the funnest) I understand how it may be repetitive on the recording end but once a week is 7 whole days between leaks so for us it’s fresh leakage every time! it’s scrumptious i love it pleas
So happy to be celebrating my birthday today with these two guys❤
i dont remember when i began watching either of you, im 17 now and I remember watching Sean when I was quite young, so maybe 10 years by now, I've loved both of you for a long time. Stay Leaky p.s please keep the bad advice segment, or do different type of advice? or maybe do AITA readings and both of you can talk about your opinions, I think we would al, enjoy that!
Brain and Leak, I genuinely love the bad advice segment. Like 100%. Maybe not every week if you’re not feeling it, but I absolutely love it.
Create a poll for the bad advice segment. I personally love it
Honestly I like the bad advice segments 🤷♀️ but I’m totally down for them finding something else! It’s early enough in the podcast to not get attached to a bit
35:00 just have different people sing out the ad reads in a contest. You get the ad segment and entertainment
I love the advice segment because of the hilarious brainstorming if you can do something besides advice with that energy I would love that!
i absolutely love the bad advice segment
I'd say keep the bad advice part of the show, I like it because hearing y'all read out something odd then seeing how you two try to make it funny and go back and forth adding funnier bits is so good.
The bad advice segment should stay because I love the batshit insane ideas you guys come up with for the scenarios
the bad advice segment will forever hold a special place in my heart, but I do understand where you're coming from with it getting stale/hard to answer questions. at first I was like "nooo I love the bad advice thing it's so silly" but I have faith you guys could come up with something even better! even if you do some different silly thing every episode, I'd be happy with that :)
I've always loved the Bad Advice segment! I just enjoyed that the episode came to a close on a note that was funny, consistent and interacted with the audience! But on another note I wouldn't want you guys doing something you don't enjoy! Maybe you guys should make a Bad Advice Subreddit? You can make answers and/or just read what other leakers have to say and build onto the chaos! :)
I love the bad advice segment, it makes my day honestly
ik they said they already did jingle bells but is "jingle bell rock" different enough because it's RIGHT THERE it's so perfect
you two together equals the perfect antidepressant. you two just brighten my day all the time thank you so much ❤
this is wierldy a nice way to start my morning thank you its kinda suril ive watched you since i was a kid and here you are my mornig pod cast its like lissening to blues cluse as a pod cast where they talk about jobs and are just adults being funny
Noo I love the bad advice segment, always look forward for the best in the last
i support whatever u guys think will elevate the podcast i enjoy it so much, so yeah thank you
I clicked so fast! I was going to go to sleep finally and be responsible but oh well 😂
i love these uploads at 3 am
I don't know it this will be buried in the older stuff now that it's been a month, but I've been catching up on the podcast. I personally love the bad advice cause it seems kind of fun. But maybe also you guys could do something like "Real Ass Advice" and give like funny, but REAL advice for questions. Either way, it's fun and love it. Thanks boys
yesss the hat and the blue curtain 😂 perfect
I really like Seán’s office setup. It always inspires me to keep cool things in my office that bring me joy. 💖
This is so random, but I was listening to this while trying to figure out what some physical pain I’ve been dealing with for years is again, and I think I figured it out!! The descriptions all line up to the T, and my moms scheduling an appointment to test for it! The pure serotonin I’m going to associate with this episode of this podcast for the rest of my life could be immeasurable!
Its so nice that the have this on youtube
Relating to the rock hard for christmas: famous finnish heavy metal singers have made a collaborative christmas album called "Raskasta Joulua" (heavy christmas) and they also hold an annual christmas concert and it fucking slaps
I honestly expect thankmas advertisment before halloweeen its one of the streams i look forward to every year with excitment if i had better internet id stream for it as well but i love the work and effort sean puts into thankmas its truly inspiring
I wish I could see jack and jacks’s background clearly at the same time
I think a good recurring segment would be for you to ask a question and the audience give funny answers or find funny/weird news articles (florida man type stuff)
Blaze your glory guys
Hey Jack, about your shrunken hat. You can put some fabric softener & warm water in a spray bottle and wet the hat and then gently stretch it. Finally let it dry, it should hold its shape. I think there are other ways to gently stretch shrunken knitwear & such if you look it up and know what material the hat is made out of.
i do actually really enjoy the advice segment if im honest, id be sad to see it go
Very topical boys 😂 talking about Christmas songs in August lol ❤
Perhaps you guys could do a set number is “segments “ all different, bad advice could be one of them if you want and you would cycle through them every week/upload , so maybe 4/5 of them and Change em up ?
enjoying me good ol leaky brain podcast while drinkin' that top of the mornin' coffee to start of the day yeah?
I LOVE THAT SEGMENT
reaccuring bit: create a bit that you would do on various comedy/skit shows (i.e i think you should leave, impractical jokers, who's line is it anyway etc) and pitch and act it out as best as you can to each other and then each of you can have your own live reaction. i dunno how the staying quality would be on this, like i dunno if it may eventually get old, but ethan and sean are both really great at improv and stuff so it was the first thing i thought of
The bad advise segment is one probably the best part. I listen to The Complete Guide to Everything podcast and they do the same thing. If i could get rid of anything it would be the Sponsor ads segments but that helps pay the bills, i understand that
Boys bad advice Is my favorite part. Came over from Spotify to say this
I do think a new segment would be nice! Still interactive preferably, but I agree that bad advice has kinda run its course. Excited to see what y’all do next :)
I really like the bad advice segment, its been one of my favourite parts of the podcast! I'd hate to see it go completely, but you could just change it to every other week or so and add something else to keep things ~leaky~
we need brain leak merch asap
Awwww the last wholesome Jimmy Buffet reference 😔
1:08:48 dude i'm watching on speakers that are a bit loud for later at night and that scream was absolutely wonderful as it traveled across my wall XD
