The more consolidated a company is the harder it is to approve and deploy new features. KZread gaming is basically joined at the hip with KZread, which is joined at the hip with Google Ads, which is joined to Google, which is under Alphabet. It'll never be as easy to add features for a KZread Engineer as it is for Otto with an independent extension. I think Otto being independent is the best thing about the entire thing. He's probably getting paid on par with Google engineers anyways

I listen to this on Spotify at work to make Wednesday less shitty. And it always makes me laugh. The final five minutes when you were talking about in my opinion the golden age of speedrunning was a fun throwback. Since a lot of us don’t even look at speedrunning anymore. I remember watching Narcissa do that 18:10 live and everyone going off in chat. A long with classic Agdq 2013. It’s awesome hearing all of you guys were around for that. Also I loved Slime’s reference to YSG. The man was a legend. Thanks for reminding me of that time which is almost 10 years ago now. Also Aidan is 100% right about that melee video Narcissa released back then. I think it was around the time the original smash doc came out getting us all into melee.

Genuinely each episode of these pods are great. However I fully decided this was the best one so far when slime managed to make Nick walk off due to that epic wet ripper.

Aiden's crafty bit @19:58 was hilarious. He's right. No one should have to be crafty to find a live stream.

If Ludwig wants to do that kind of convention and not be a tanacon PLEASE invest on good security and a big venue, that was one of the biggest things. But ngl I would trust Slime wouldn't let him fuck up like that

Now that BTS is gone, we can say : It WAS Ludwig's fault.

This is the most exciting episode for me, not bc of Ludwig’s move, but bc they mentioned a “PogChamps but for melee” thing and I think I need that now

Not only is Adien right about Tana Mongoose, but she has also said very racist things and been discriminatory aside from saying the n word multiple times publicly

Aiden described a real essay I bullshitted in a college class, this is a weird glitch in the simulation

I think my favorite part is how much Nick has been having a love affair with the phrase "I'm on his side now".

According to some psychological studies done at Harvard, happiness in of itself did not become much of a pursuit until survival was a guarantee. So yeah, we’re happier than the people from 400 years ago, but we also have a lot more freedom to think about it and pursue joy.

Man this video is such a slime classic. Keep it up slime!

great episode i haven’t watched it yet

Excited to eat lunch while watching and the boys talk about dog poop for the first 5 minutes of the Pod...

so proud i literally cried

Man the BTS bit hit had 56:08

i have never felt more old than after hearing what nick said in response to slime mentioning dashcon (the tumblr ballpit meetup)

Good to see Lud's crooked eyes make a callback in the thumbnail! Now we just need a return of shooter get down!

as a fan of lud the yard and smash, i cant wait to see what the entrants and prize pool for mogul mania is gonna look like

it might be cringe but when Nick said he refuses to get rid of his cs knife... i felt that.

The thought of Atrioc saying uppies was so funny that I was legit crashed when Lud admitted it was him saying it

1:15:27 I looked over knowing I'd catch aimen giving a Jim from the office look

I have a conspiracy theory that Ludwig switched to KZread so he can swear in videos It's the only plausible reason

I remember the Dashcon ball pit. Legendary

i appreciate slimes “open the border. stop, having it be closed”

2nd funniest Pod so far boys good stuff

56:00 "Comments like BTS down bad, as if the company is on its last legs", RIP :'(

I thought I got scammed off the intro bit but it was just delayed this time. I love the intro bits so much

Came from Spotify to say yeah I remember the dash con ball pit that was literally in 2014

I enjoy the subtle edit of Ludwig's eyes in the thumbnail

Slime referenced the history of Japan by bill wurtz and it made my brain factory reset lmao “Open the borders, stop having them be closed”

New Yardigan binging the episodes, Slime is my favorite by far

slime droppin the dash con, love it

my ears perked up when I heard that reference to the DashCon Ball Pit

i immediately remembered the dashcon ball pit as soon as yall mentioned a shitty con rofl, surprised most of the guys didnt know of it

I started watching this podcast because of ludwig. Now I really do enjoy watching everyone. It really is amazing how funny and entertaining you guys are

this episode is 2 years old but i just want slime to know when he mentioned dashcon and got hit with a wall of confusion from everyone else i felt so seen in him for just a beautiful moment. its as if he mirrored my soul and my life and laid it bare for all to see and i thank him

Slime a real one, RIP DashCon ball pit

insane dashcon reference by slime. real ogs know

I in fact, have written multiple essays and research papers on AI and robots for school one of which in fact was after watching Ex Machina.

Dashcon will forever live in our hearts, albeit as more of a parasite than a blessing

serious answer to aidens thoughts around 4:40, I think the important thing is the scope at which they can conceive of the concept of happiness. Overall I think more people made it to a higher percentage of happiness, but the max happy you could be was much much lower. These days the ceiling for happiness is so much higher, so in comparison a life at 50% seems depressing, even though you are actually happier than the happiest of people back in the day. We tend to take for granted the simple joys of life because there is always more to be gained, whereas before it was much easier to enjoy what you had because it was all you had. While generally the "back in my day" arguments dont work for me, the appreciation for what you have is something that I think has been lost to some extent and I think we as a society would benefit from taking some time to appreciate things like friends, family, and hobbies a little more.

The beginning was banging

The yard shouting out the speedrun OGs Sig and Narcissa is crazy. Just goes to show how they grew up on the same content I did

No way Lud goes “wait I think we’re about 90” when it’s literally 91 minutes in… factoring the intro he’s pretty damn close

Oh damn Slime did a really good job scripting this one

Nick with the Spyro comment! Love it
