Super wholesome interview! @@tommy2liter448 - saw your replies in other comments that this was one of the more fun things you've done lately - it could be the spark that lights an ember. We're all just figuring things out and making them up as we go, it's okay if you don't have a "niche" - be yourself. If you've ever wanted to start your own KZread channel, now could be the best opportunity to start something fun and keep the momentum going while Scott's audience is buzzing for you. Much respect, Tommy!

@@tommy2liter448 I’m so glad you did! That is absolutely wild all of the things they make you do before getting chosen! I’m sure there’s some psychological reasons but I’ve seen some contestants that must have maybe frozen during the actual taping? Of course you don’t want everyone to be the same but that is so much work! I’m impressed you actually did with the money what you said you would! More often than not they don’t and it’s sad how many people just use all of it for partying. And with housing prices, you made a good investment which is still small compared to how happy you made your parents. They did a great job raising you. The greatest thing to have in your life is love and it seems you’re surrounded with lots of it. Congrats on the weight loss too! 💜

Could you IMAGINE if a show pulled the car stunt now!? It's always so jarring looking back at how cruel TV was in the y2k era. Tommy is so dope. I aspire to have skin as thick as his one day; I'm still in my "always self conscious in public and still cry over small comments about my weight" era, but getting closer to unapologetically existing and loving myself every day 💪🏻 Also, Scott, you are an incredible interviewer, especially when you consider that it's so much harder to nonverbally communicate interest / active listening over video vs real life. Top-tier video all around, boys!

What a great interview, so glad to hear his experience on the show was so positive that the car gag didn’t even register as rude. I definitely don’t think it justifies the bullying for entertainment purposes, but sometimes not even really being aware you’re being made the butt of the joke is the best outcome of a situation. For another person in a different scenario that gag could have felt incredibly humiliating. So glad to hear that wasn’t his experience.
