I was confused by how Etho was talking about all the stuff "we" did the first time I watched an Etho Plays Minecraft video. He was doing a world tour and sharing some of the things we built, and I was like "...isn't this a solo let's play?" I figured out that he was referring to the viewer participation and engagement before the end of the video. It felt very real and sincere when he stopped to read some of the books where he answered comments from KZread. Now it's one of my favorite things about how Etho interacts with his audience. It feels very considerate and mindful. It's just nice to be included.

If you got to Impulse's twitch, filter the videos by clip and then refine it by "Top ALL" (it defaults to Top 24h), you'll find the first clip. #1 is called "Am I really playing on a server with Etho? [I'm] still in shock." - Impulse 2020, while Etho lurks" #2 is called "Now I've said way too many good things, he's going to use it against me when we play Among Us!", just scroll down the page a little, search for a phrase in the title or find the clip that has 1.3k views.

Yup. To be honest, that's why I hate podcasts. Usually hosts just take over and talk about themselves.
I love listening to you guys talk, but I felt like this style of long rambling questions works with people like Scott and Jimmy who are naturally very outgoing, not with shy people like Gem and Etho, where it felt very imbalanced- It felt like you guys were trying to 'fill the empty space' after your questions too much with your own stories and experiences instead of letting them think for a little bit more. It's okay to let the question stand on its own. I also feel that way about answers, when guests pause a little bit to think, you guys immediately interject with your own tangents, which again I don't usually mind but it does feel disappointing when I'm so excited to hear their complete answers! It's tough adapting your interview style to suit different guests, I completely understand!! I appreciate the work you do regardless! I experience a similar thing as an introvert, it's hard to collect my thoughts before my extrovert friends decide that the few seconds of silence is too uncomfortable for them and immediately change the topic before I can answer. Of course, it's natural for this to happen in conversations, but since this is an interview-style podcast, I think it's worth considering!

Couldn’t agree more. I think this is important to work on if they want to continue interviewing guests and getting better at it - if you have a guest on you really should step back a bit on your own life stories and let the guest take centre stage. For someone like Etho who doesn’t have long answers, be ready to just ask follow-up questions instead of immediately jumping into long expositions of your own answers to the question.

This is not wrong. However, remember that these guys are not only conducting an interview, but they are doing so without looking at etho. the visual queues are not there these guys are sitting on a couch and staring at some cameras, these aspects make it difficult to moderate yourself. good take though!
I agree with Imp and Skizz saying they think people recognize his voice more often than he thinks. I believe that we as his audience respect his desire to stay anonymous. That stems from him respecting us as is audience and truly allowing us into his world.

One of the best jokes Etho ever did was his response to Skizz's Words of Affirmation.

That's actually an absolutely amazing oxymoron and it only works with that particular phrasing.

That gonna be an R-rating podcast real fast.
i have a compulsive urge to smile whenever i hear Etho's voice. It's been great for my cheek muscles after watching thousands of his videos.
What Skizz said about him being a bad Minecrafter but a good KZreadr is pretty true, and it's one of the things that made me really excited about this Hermitcraft season. Whereas I think Joel benefits a lot from joining Hermitcraft (he does really large building projects and loves messing with his friends but doesn't necessarily always vibe with massive role-play), Hermitcraft itself benefits a lot from Skizz joining. I feel like a lot of Hermitcrafters (at least the past couple seasons) have been trying to push the envelope and take on projects that are bigger, more impressive, and newer. This is genuinely great and I enjoy watching that growth, but it's refreshing to have this one dork who's average at every game skill others have specialized in and whose main draw is how he has so much pure fun interacting with everyone else and being himself. He's not trying to push the boundaries of redstoning or building or anything. I guess it's a destination vs journey mindset, where I feel like Skizz is going to savor the journey when some other people might rush from one monumental destination to the next. Maybe that's all just me, though, idk.

I for one definitely don’t view myself as a boss or client. That’s weird. Also, if Etho sees this, please do an asmr voice in your next video hahaha.
Love this episode! I especially love hearing that Impulse and Etho read all their comments and really get a lot of good out of that, I often think of something to comment but then I dont because I just have this underlying assumption that it won't matter. That being said, I have some constructive criticism for this episode - it's frustrating when one of you spends a long time asking Etho a question, then he responds with maybe one remark to that question, then the other one cuts in and starts talking about whatever they were thinking of, and everyone moves on and Im left wondering what Etho's answer to the question would have been. It happened at least a few times this episode, but for example when Impulse was asking Etho about if his family had a hard time understanding what he did, then Etho responded with "Oh yeah, thats something that gets brought up quite frequently actually", and instead of letting Etho elaborate on that, Impulse kept talking about how its happened to him a lot with strangers and what-not, then asked about if it happens with strangers. I wanted to hear Etho talk about what his family thought, at least like let him tell a funny story or something! I get that you guys were super excited to have Etho on and you were fangirling (especially you, Skizz 😉), and ik youre probably reading this after the second episode was already recorded, so ik theres no adjusting to criticism between episodes. You guys are learning and growing as podcast hosts, and honestly youre doing an amazing job stepping up your game as bigger stars come on. Sorry this was a long-winded comment, thats the other reason i dont leave comments on videos 😂 hope my criticism goes over well with you, cheers

A constructive criticism that requires thoughtful consideration, especially with less expressive guests, and polite Canadians. Etho takes time to "rev up the engines," but when he does... (e.g. the roleplay during an impromptu PvP session at Gem's arena on the beach was like a bird spreading its wings). Interviewing the guest, rather than sharing stories -- an idea for another format where multiple guests are invited to discuss a theme where you could riff off each other.

Love this podcast, especially the guest episodes. One thing I do notice, however, is that you both often frame questions so much - or so long - that it gets hard (for me) to follow what the question was in the first place. Or you ask the question then start answering it yourselves, or add your "take" on the question so it goes from an open-ended question to almost an instruction what you want out of the guest in terms of an answer. Just some constructive feedback on my end.

By that I mean that in the way you interact with him in this episode you're a lot in "Oh it's fascinating I feel the same/I feel different and here's a story about blablabla" mode, which gives a rich conversation with 3 POVs but imo doesn't put enough emphasis on Etho and what's his experience is like, which is what I was really really interested in as a viewer. For example I would have loved to have him unravel about how does he keep his motivation going after 13 years on the same world. It felt like such a rich topic to dive into and was cut super short to jump onto another thing. So a second part where your intentions lean more towards "How do we make him rebound/keep him unfolding these stories about his YT experience, himself, etc. ect." and actively give him more space would be a treat ! Now that I've mentionned my frustration, I wanna thank you VERY MUCH for this still very interesting conversation between the 3 very cool and unique creators that you are. Much love Edit : just watched the end, guess I’ll be back next week routing for pt3&4 🤓
The legend himself deserves every single bit of fangirling and recognition he gets
I love the bus driver analogy. Congratulations on getting Impulse’s CC crush on the podcast.
I love the podcast. I really enjoy it 🙂 Sometimes it feels like you don't give your guests time to actually answer your great questions. I had the same feeling in the episode with GeminiTay. Maybe it's just your eagerness that's overwhelming to some of your more 'shy' guests? Again - I do really enjoy the podcast.
The kid who managed to see Etho must have felt so lucky and proud like best day of their life

Been hearing about this all week, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, ETHO IS HERE!!!!
Hey guys, this was a great discussion. But would have liked to hear more from Etho. You guys are great at making guests feel comfortable, but at the same time, by giving your own stories that takes up a lot of the time and discussion. I'd like the balance towards guests to be increased just a bit more.

My first assumption was that something in his answer was more personal than he wanted to reveal. But then I was also surprised that they kept the question in. I suppose they could be including that in part 2, but it still seems weird to keep the question in part 1.
On behalf of all the Ethogirls, thank you. Thank you for this amazing episode! I have always enjoyed hearing Etho’s mindset and thought process in general (which was pointed out here) and this episode was yet again another peek into that. I am so grateful! ❤️
Such a simple thing, but making the Etho skin move when he is talking is such a nice touch. Well done. 👍🏼
The way i whispered ''no fucking way'' and then dropped everything to listen immediately
also, gotta give props to the editing! love the fact that skizz put etho on screen and his avatar moves when he talks. nice touch skizz!
I think I could watch you two chatting with Etho for 12 hours, great episode!
Love the podcast and the work you guys do, but I wish you’d have let Etho speak more. Such a rare opportunity you’ve given us to hear from Etho in this different forum, and I feel like over 2/3 of it was instead hearing more from Imp & Skizz.
No WAY that was an hour, it went by so fast! Oftentimes I'm watching Etho and thinking, 'does he have any idea how LOVED he is??' Its cool to find out he does know, he's just a humble king! Can't wait for the next part :)

Etho's comment section is my favorite. So many of the comments are genuinely thoughtful feedback. Not much negativity. It makes me feel welcome to engage in the community. 36:13
Etho is an eternal example of stay true to yourself, stay humble, stay open to new ideas
For Imp. The way I got into MC is exactly like you. My son asked for help about 7 years ago (during season 6), wanted to make an auto sorter. I was like "you can do what in this game?!! Search YT, I find your tutorial about item filters...Same day I got my own MC account. Watched more of your vids and was introduced to Hermitcraft. The rest is history. My world is 3 years old I try to log in a couple times a week when life allows. My son and I built his dream PC for Christmas and I don't think he even has MC installed. So he stuck me with this addiction and left me alone on our smp. But I am glad I found a hobby to clear my head and enjoy doing and thankful for all the enjoyable fam friendly content you all produce.

I love mostly everything about this, my only criticism is I wish you'd given Etho more space to talk. He barely got to say anything.
Skizz, you need to stop saying “my Minecraft is terrible.” You’re at least a B or B+, joining A+ and S tier pros. You’re a big fish in a huge pond. Your skills have rapidly improved over the years I’ve seen you (37th place, yo!). Your screen presence has always been great with others, and it’s getting very good on your own. If I succeed in entering this space, it will be because of Imp and Skizz.
OMG, that’s unimaginable! You got the ETHO!!! This must be the channel's top chart for a while. Thank you, Imp&Skiz, for bringing one of our best content creators of this century 💯
can’t wait for part 2!!! overall thoughts on this pod: i’ve been watching etho since the beginning pretty much. i didn’t learn anything “new” about him that i didn’t already know from his videos. but, he’s a fantastic creator and i just love listening to his voice, like we all do, lol… that being said, love you imp and skizz, but shut up and let the man talk 😆

I've had a crush on Etho's voice for 10+ years, and it's just got to the next level XD
One thing I noticed here is that Imp & Skizz are definitely doing way more of the talking/storytelling than they usually would while having a guest on the show. Etho warned them early on that he would be awkward and not be very entertaining, but the guys are definitely filling the time and keeping it moving. I would have LIKED to hear more from Etho’s POV, but part of me suspects this is deliberate to allow him to remain comfortable in his reticence.

I prepared my favourite snacks for this one! I've been a avid Etho fan since the Chocolate Island days. His voice used to help me fall asleep when I had insomnia, and if I'm feeling sad or sick I'll always stick on an old video of Etho's to cheer me up. He's always so genuine and humble, I think that's why he's such a comfort to me. As Impulse said, Etho always brings a cozy vibe to his videos and he always manages to make me smile even on my darkest days. Such an inspiration and a wonderful person

I used cobble and torches as directional markers for several years before I discovered Imp or Skizz. And yet, despite being my own creation, ever since Naked and Scared Season 2 first popped up in my recommendations oh so many years ago, I've refered to the simple structure that gets me back home as a Scompass. It's just so... catchy. Etho has his clock, Impulse has his item sorter, but Skizz has the most important of all for us Hardcore immersion players.

We're all just ethogirls am I right? I was kicking my feet in the air the whole video😭😭😭 I have no idea why etho thinks he wasn't charismatic I've felt like this since the beginning. This dude was mischievous even in the beginning, seeing him just get more and more confident was so satisfying to see throughout the years
Etho's voice sounds like he's always smiling
The explanation of Etho's videos as cozy feels so right! I've only started watching his videos recently, but they just make me want to make a happy cup of tea and watch on a rainy day.
Hi Imp and Skizz, I just wanted to thank you guys for this podcast and for just being yourselves. I recently saw my psychiatrist for the first time in 6 months, which just happens to be how long I've been watching this channel, and I realised that for the first time I wasn't actually lying when I told her that I'm happy, and that's because of this podcast. I've been diagnosed with depression for over 6 years now and I've had a really rough time with it, but without even realising it at the time, I've noticed just how much this podcast has changed my life. When I'm watching, I don't realise just how much of what you say affects me and actually changes my mentality. Since finding this podcast I've started university doing a degree in physics and I'm getting all distinctions and I 100% believe that it's thanks to you guys for honestly saving my life. I'm beyond grateful for everything you guys have done and I feel so blessed to have found this podcast and have had it to help me through quite a few particularly bad moments. You're both so amazing and I'm so glad you have the audience that you do where you can share your positivity.

I think Etho has a fundamental misunderstanding of how bus driving works 😂 kicking off vomiting children is the opposite of their job 😂
I could listen to Etho allllll day. I would definitely recognize him by his voice out in public. Etho saying he's not charismatic is so humble. I find him extremely charismatic.
Is there a reason Ethos answer was cut at 27:40? And if so why include the question? Completely threw me off, I kept rewinding while listening to audio only
what i love ab watching etho is that it all just feels very human. i think a lot of that is bc he does allow folks to join him in his thought process and kinda see the way his brain puts the pieces of the puzzle together. it’s also the more casual voice he uses and the cadence and editing style and all. but i think it’s also in the way that it feels we as the viewers are recognized as humans too? since he does read and appreciate comments, he uses the term “we”, and does invite us along with him it just feels a bit more down to earth than other youtuber communities. it’s a lovely lil place to be and i think it’s a great space to cultivate creativity and problem solving which i think etho himself is great at
I've been gradually working my way through his lets play (from the first season) and the difference in his voice/delivery is CRAZY. so cool to see him gradually becoming more like the etho we know today :) im on episode 149 right now and there's sooooo many episodes to go... im still 12 years in the past
Finally! My fave Hermit! No offense, guys. But wow, so many years, and he’s kinda the “father” of these KZread videos I’ve loved for so long. Kudos to his “no pressure to subscribe” videos.

Etho is just too good to be true. Such a humble guy!
when Etho said "nowadays people are just showing things a lot more, you take it in but you don't include yourself in the process" it felt so good because he articulated something I've been feeling about modern day minecraft videos for so long

Maybe this is a bad take.. but I feel a lot of this podcast was talking TO Etho and not with Etho.. I get its harder when you don't have visual cues/ can't see when they're ready to jump in, but some of the questions it was like you were giving him loads of things he could answer with.. rather than just letting him answer. That being said, vibes were still good - just let me hear more from Effo/ future guests! 🙂

It is not entirely a bad take but I do believe Imp and Skizz trying to create comforting environment for Etho. I did stopped watching cause they kept unending talking to avoid silence.
One of the things many forget to point out that even while you are creating content for others enjoyment is that the creator needs to enjoy it as well. Constantly playing a character different from themselves will be tiring and overwhelming at times, I personally enjoy watching people who can be themselves. It’s comforting to know that this creator is not only a character but a real person who has real emotions and opinions. I never post comments but for once I felt the strive to join the community.
First time I'm not only happy for a part 2 but at the same time have this 'how dare you make me wait an entire week' feeling - I didn't even notice how long I had been listening, very enjoyable episode. Thank you guys, thank you Etho :)
i'm so thrilled Etho agreed to be on the podcast. can't wait for next week's continuation!
I personally believe that Etho is the best minecrafter of all time. I know he won’t admit it but he has contributed enormously to its technical style and inventions. If it’s possible, Etho has done it. If it’s impossible, Etho has tried it.
I already listened to this on Spotify when it was released around 5am my time as I had conveniently not gone to bed. Still awake 3 hours later to watch this because, y’know, it’s Etho. I’ve been waiting a mere 346 days for this!! I asked Etho via Brody less than a year ago if he’d go on your podcast if you asked and he said yes. (It’s from when they played Don’t Starve on stream last year June 20. Br0dyman uploaded the vod as “Don't Starve Episode 5: Do Etho and BrOdy die!?” The timestamp is 1:18:35.) Fun fact: when I posted that clip to Etho’s subreddit, I got downvoted to heck for clickbaiting. 😅

I always assumed Etho's name came from the three appeals--logos, pathos, and ethos--where ethos is the appeal to authority. In literature, an argument uses ethos when the evidence supporting the argument is deemed useful or valid because it comes from an important or authoritative figure. The name really fits because Etho is now such a recognizable figure in Minecraft, but also doesn't because he's such a self-grounded person.
OMG ACTUALLY ETHO ON A PODCAST THATS SO COOL! i love how he is literally the most caring and nice dude but he is just such an actual hermit. i've loved seeing him colab more with other people and him opening up more. Glad he feel comfortable to do it as well. Etho we love you and you're doing an amazing job :D
