Man, you can really tell this hit Bryce hard. I think sitting with three jokers and bringing some dark humour back into the situation will hopefully help him in the long term, as it kinda seems like he was embracing and getting lost in the scary side of it a bit too much. Laughter is the best way to cope with these things, especially when it turned out so incredibly lucky for Adam. Well done to everyone for noticing how uncomfortable he was and acknowledging it, but not holding back with the revelry.

You can tell that Adam is his absolute best friend and it hurts him a lot to think about it. Interactions like this are important to move past things. Both are total bad asses. 🤘

Nick must be at physical therapy this week to help him with his unfortunate accident. He should get the info of Adam's recovery team, it's amazing what they've done with his own rehabilitation. We are all glad Adam's still with us for real, and we're glad to know you've made a fantastic recovery.

Respect to Adam and what a quick recovery to be on the podcast and on the range the day before, all goes to show how resolute he is.

Adam is so fricking lucky... his accident and Kentucky's highlight about having procedures in place and running through "what if" situations especially if there's only a small group because panic is real and effects everyone differently.

Damn Eli, dropping another real one on us right at the beginning. Respect

Adam, we are so glad you’re still with us. Prayers for speedy recovery and for help with your medical bills.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It also almost kills you, and it will make you even stronger to acknowledge that and deal with all aspects emotionally and physically.

Thanks guys. It was great to see more of Adam's and Bryce's personalities in this podcast. Love you guys at UnsubscribePodcast, and Ballistic High-speed.

That was a banger episode! So glad that y'all connected with these guys - been following Adam and Bryce for a while and hoping there would be collabs, so when I saw them sign on with Bunker, I was stoked. Not so stoked to hear that Adam got blown up; so so glad he's ok. Really amazing that he was able to be on the show with ya'll! Hard core, thank you guys so much!

Beautiful speech Eli!

I needed that reminder Eli. Thank you sir. The holidays are extra heavy this year. Just my baby boy and I with no friends or family close by. Wasn't expecting it but it's been a rough holiday season this year.

And Vanderbilt Medical Center is amazing. I was born there. Had broken bones set there. The Cancer center and their burn center is as good as they come. And the VA hospital is next door to them. My Hematologist is a Vandy intern. My aunt graduated from Vanderbilt with a masters in American History. She would have liked Nick's take on history. Great episode...

Beautiful message Eli. Wish I had a group of mates like you guys for support. So glad Adam is ok. Scary footage of that accident.

you guys have helped me keep my head above water. these last few years have been hard. thank you for the community everyone.

Dude Elli i just wants you too know that this podcast and your personal messages about mental health help me so much. I am going through a tough time. But this podcast, my dad and my friends help me get through this and make sure i don’t unsubscribe to life

I started crying when I saw the footage 😭 bro.... Thank everyone who saved his life and got him back to looking like a human being 😭😭😭

Hi Eli, Thank you for open and taking about troubles that you have had over yhe years and how well you are going now. I am myself going through a rough time. I was hit by a forklift in the first quarter of the year and starting watching around that time. I am stuck in bed most of the due to back/ nerve issues and damage. I have also developed mental issues during this time. The last few messages from Eli have really reinforced to me that there is a light at the end no matter how dark it all looks now. I am started to cry typeing this but thank you.

So I’ve been trying to to drop a comment each week just to say thank you guys. I know you don’t need affirmation but I think it is deserved. You have done great keeping things going and beyond that keeping them so fun and interesting. I love seeing you donut nick and Brandon consistently. The interactions are hilarious and genuine. It makes for my favorite podcast without a doubt.

I didn’t even know I was feeling some type of way until Eli’s intro. Immediate tears. I love you Eli, this podcast truly brings a smile to my face. You have a big heart and even if you don’t know us individually, I can feel the sincerity in which you care for us. I appreciate you 🙏♥️

After how harrowing this whole situation was, I think as a member of the audience, we all have felt a wave of relief to see all you healing here. I haven't laughed as hard as I have in a long time.

Eli dropping a truth bomb at the beginning is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thanks for the words of wisdom man.

I can already tell by the thumbnail, this gonna be lit podcast!!!!!

It's like Adam completely defied the laws of physics. So glad you're relatively ok, brotha! That was INSANE!! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Okay. Ive now watched both videos. The footage of his accident is absolutely breathtaking. I cannot believe that he is in such good health. Im amazed at his recovery and wish him only the best. Sir. You are apart of an elite group, most of whom didnt sign up to be apart. To be blown up and then be concious enough to assess and treat your own wounds

So glad to see them here, I started watching Ballistic Highspeed with their 3rd or 4th upload, watching the original video caught me completely off-guard. So happy to see how they've grown as a channel and to see Adam alive.

Honestly, this podcast and everyone's videos and the humor they put into them have made me smile at my lowest points. You guys are great

I dont have any social media so i cant DM any of you guys so i figured id tell you that ive listened to about 1/8th of your total videos and its helped me turn a bad day into an ok day dozens of times. Thank you.

I come here to feel normal. Eli your touching message at the beginning was exactly what I needed.I have been going through some shit lately and you really help me feel like holding on sometimes.

This was such a good episode. I actually watched the entire thing twice. After watching that footage it's crazy that Adam is still alive. Hope everyone is doing great and has a great holiday and end of year. Love you guys! Best podcast ever, hands down.

Haven't had a chance to listen to this one yet, but I already know it's going to be a banger! Y'all been putting out an absolutely fantastic podcast, and I look forward to it every week! Thanks for all y'all's hard work Unsubscribe, you guys rock!

so glad for the uploads yall make my day fr love the real Eli bits just love how much of a positive reinforcement he is for everyone

Honestly they probably both needed this more than you both can know, when you go through bad accident and trauma there is nothing better than seeing it through the lens of comedy, and normalising the experience with people who are not only in your community and field, but have context and experience. I keep say it but this podcast is going better than ever, and has transformed with the extra new hosts. Case in point is Brandon's insight and knowledge and Eli's experience and madcap humour which makes what could have been a very horrible, somber podcast into something else entertaining and cathartic. Thanks, and all the best to Adam on a speedy recovery. 🙏

I'm watching this 4 months down the road and I recall watching it on the Ballistic High-Speed channel first. This footage still makes me tear up. The dark sense of humor about it I am certain is what has allowed you to push through those harder days. God had his hand on your shoulder that, man!

that footage is crazy so glad he's doing alright keep doing amazing work ya'll

Prefect comment

Went and subscribed to their channel and about to watch some of their videos. Adam looks great for someone who was blown up weeks before recording this podcast. Sounds like everyone reacted quickly to the situation and I am surprised he was walking everyone through how to treat him.

That explosion was the most horrifying video. Thank God Adam is alive. Pray for complete healing & recovery. Can see the trauma Bryce still has yet he showed Brandon & Eli the video and talked about that day. Thank you both for having the strength to share with UnSub. There was lots of laughter and I hope it was therapeutic. Thank you.

I normally watch these in several sittings but this one… damn I was locked in. Glad he’s okay!

Adam is 1 of the toughest men in the world.. Officially by Guinness book of world record's

Thank you brother for the up-lifting words, as a veteran, family man, blue collar worker, thank you. This years has been hard not just for me but my family as well. keep up the great content bro.

So I'm not sure if this has been mentioned or not because like most, I don't read too many comments before posting. But when Bryce said "This was the last time he smiled in a month" it changed the way I was watching Adam, I would imagine that the amount of laughter and enjoyment he had must have been huge for his morale. Therapy of the best kind.... Meanwhile the emotional stress Bryce was under the entire second half was so visible like Brandon said at the end. Thanks to you all for putting on a great show, and @ballistichighspeed for excellent content.

Went to watch the footage first, that was gnarly. Thankfully you guys will bring some laughs into the world.

He should have been wearing a PT belt

Eli's opening speech hit me hard. This time of year isn't great for me. (But each year it seems to be getting better) I just want to thank you and everyone else associated with the podcast for always taking the time to cheer us up, make us laugh, and remind us that the bad times will pass. Had to pause the vid till I could see again. Keep doing what you do, your audience appreciates you all.

Thank you Eli for that speech at the start, I really needed to hear that.

There's so many parallels too. From the unexpectedly insane explosion, to the hard-to-watch reaction of Adam's body, to the multiple rounds fired just fine beforehand, to what I assume is supposed to be the last round fired, and the insanity of Adam's survival.

I was burned in a house fire at 13 months old with 85% of my body covered in second and third degree burns. I can still remember times when they had to use those brushes to clean off the dead skin. Wish you the best and glad you had people there to help you.

Dear Unsubscribe, I wish to say merry Christmas and thank u. You have all given me a way to laugh in turbulent times. This year back in February I lost my grandfather a great man who I treated like a second dad. A large man with a big heart and more then enough love he was marine in Vietnam a mechanic back home and a jail Minister. He had lung cancer,stage 4 as his health declined I found laughter, life skills, and an escape after getting his treatment or staying with him I'd always cum home and watch yall an have a good laugh. As holidays get closer his voice, love and memory make us think of better times when he was here so to that I say thank u Eli,Brandon,Donut and Nick God bless u and merry Christmas.
