David! As a video idea, can you transform into a kdrama boyfriend? Lol try to recreate famous kdrama scenes on a date. Don't tell her, pick her up and she'll be shocked. I can help you with some scene ideas.

I can see David cursing as he reads this comment. Nothing personal towards you, but he probably would've hated the idea, but still wanna give it a go. 😂

This is my favorite episode. Not because of Mariel, but because how vulnerable you were David. I feel how genuine you are, I relate to you on such a deep level, and empathize with you because of it. Thank you for showing that side to us.

gosh david that last part really hit hard, made me tear up bro.

Mariel!! My favorite GeniusBrain guest

when david started talking about that situation and how he felt like he let everyone down and how incredibly heartbroken everyone was, i couldn't help but cry bc although my past isn't as intense as david's, i've been trying so incredibly hard to change and improve myself as a whole. i get so angry and depressive and used to have a lot of angry meltdowns yet bc i've been trying so hard to improve whenever i do slip up, it feels as if the entire world is crashing down on me and i feel like a major letdown. it breaks my heart.

Seeing David tear up hit me more than I expected

I love that david remembers all the moments with mariel hahaha its usually the other way around the guy tends to forget everything lol

David 😭 I've watched you since I was 14/15 and I'm 21 now. I've been watching and supporting. Much love from St. Lucia

U guys are cute. Love these podcasts. Have a mega awesome day or night everyone!

I second what Mariel said. You've gotten a lot more chill and relaxed.

the feels are strong in this one. Thank you for telling us David!

Mariel so, Joseph Jitsukawa, and Gina Darling are magic with you David. You guys vibe so naturally 👌

Makes you wonder what she’s sees in David. Sometimes I wonder….

I love the raw, honest korean American POV and stories you guys share that I can relate to or understand. I could never get this on TV nor most of YT. So THANK YOU for doing this and keep it up!

Absolutely love the podcasts with Mariel! Props for showing your emotions as well!

David is so amazing, hearing and seeing him get teary eye you know he is genuine kind person in his heart

David, I just wanted to let you know that I am soo grateful that you let us see your vulnerability. Thank you for sharing your experiences and giving us a heads up about anything. You are such an inspiration. I love you and your work. 😭❤️

Ugh I love how real and honest you guys are. Every episode makes me wanna better myself.

What a beautiful couple! David, what you've been through is why you are so strong today. I've been through similar history but I'm no where as strong as you. You guys make a great couple who will be able to weather through any storms as long as you keep that communications channel OPEN no matter what.

I studied Spanish for 4 years & Mandarin for 3 years and its really depressing to forget something I used to be conversational in this lowkey made me wanna study again

Mariel is seriously the most genuine/sweet person I have ever met. Love this episode. Love the part where she had to stay stable to be the rock during the darks moments of David getting well. That is unconditional love. She loves you during your dark and happy times. We each have our own mental battles from the wounds we've endured throughout our life. What matters most is the progress, the growth, and the journey. That is life. There is just so much to learn about why we're here. Love you guys! Keep it up. Spread positivity!

I get that feeling of letting down those you love because of a side of you that you don't want to ever have again. Praying for your journey from BC Canada David! Love these podcasts and me and my girlfriend listen to them together. I love how you treat all your close friends and important people as celebrities. Keep it up man!

I honestly loved this episode of the podcast so much. Of course, I always enjoy seeing you and Mariel together and love her on the podcast, but that last half hour really had me tearing up my guy !

You guys are the perfect couple. The conversation just flows, I feel like you didn't even notice the cameras were rolling and the time was going by, love it!

Watching your podcasts have really taught me to reflect on life and see my past from a different perspective. I fucking love your podcasts so never change bro!

Mariel is a great listener. I'm glad they have each other. Thanks for sharing guys.

You are the definition of a great person. Accepting of your flaws, failures, and how it affects the loved ones around u, you battled and grinded to carve out your life that you and your folks are I’m sure very proud of. My 6 week old daughter and I really enjoyed this episode, thanks brotha

mariel is so smart and yalls conversations are always superr interesting. please bring her more!🖤

Thank you for being you David. These episodes are therapy seshes for me and for you. Never stop being yourself in any regard so thank you. I’m happy we can all change and grow together.

this is the most real pod cast i have watched. David story really made me cry, I really related to his story.

Love it whenever Mariel's on the podcast

She has such a pleasing voice I really enjoy listing to her. One of my fave couples, love you both david and Mariel ♥️

David i absolutely love these podcasts! I truly wish i can say more but i love the wisdom you constantly bring. I learn a bit of life lessons each time... THANK YOU 💖

Loooovveee when Mariel comes on! Looking forward to the next time.

The episode we've all been waiting for!!!

Awww david

My favorite podcast so far 😁. The true David came out, vulnerable, exposed feelings and all. You guys are meant to be together dude!

Oh my heart, this got so raw, thank you so much for your honesty and openness!

I fucking love these podcasts with Mariel, continue doing them!!

I legit started to cry with them .. Thank you for being so vulnerable. I Honestly , i needed that cry

That's amazing growth that you have shown in your relationship..I wish you guys all the best in your life together. Its amazing when you can be vulnerable with your significant other.

Wow. David! You made me tear up! Thank you for being so raw and real. I love this. Keep it up!

You two are so cute together! You bring out the best in each other. 😊 You probably have a backload of tears, from holding it in as a kid. I get that a lot. Processing your experiences is really important.

I love watching these podcasts with Mariel, they're my favorites.

This was such a good episode... i bawled my eyes out listening to david talk about your past self and failure... shit keep these podcasts coming please

Please have Mariel on more, if she wants lol. It’s always intriguing all the way through. Love you David!

These are so good, man. Hope that you never stop these. They get me to/through my graveyard shift. Appreciate you man.

Never really thought you will open up as this. And the way Mariel looking at you when you got teary was so sweet :)

YES I was waiting for another one with Mariel

this was such a intimate episode. Love it so inspiring!

its nice to see you both in the videos again

EMOTIONAL DAVID MADE ME CRY I DIDNT EXPECT THAT.

You 2 are awesome. Glad the algorithms have sent me your way. All the best!

When I put on this podcast as background while drawing, I wasn't expecting to cry, and yet here we are.

Mariel, the way you speak Japanese does have that confidence and has great tonation and pronunciation. Keep ittt upppp~~~~

Thank you for bring us another episode of the podcast David!

This was so powerful, David thank you for being willing to show so much vulnerability, was a pleasure and a privilege to watch. Also you two have a wonderful dynamic ^_^

I LOOOOOVE YOU David and Mariel!

so good! thank you for being genuine with us David! Ps. Love when Mariel is on the podcast!!

First 1 hour+ video I watched without skipping. Love it brother ! 화이팅 형 !

I really felt this episode. I saw a side of you I haven’t seen. It really shows how no matter how much people hide their pain or mask it with humor, the pain is there and is present everyday. Ive heard you share this story before and I was surprised by how much you controlled your emotions but after your reaction of telling the story again it struck a nerve in me. Your stories and your life helps me everyday to understand not only myself but others around me. I wish more people watched you so they could feel what I feel when I watch your podcast. ♥️

Awe, I appreciate the sincerity and the reflections of the past. It makes me realize how much I think daily of who I choose not to be. The fight is hard but it's better than becoming someone you are not proud of. FYI, I love watching podcasts with you and Mariel together. I love seeing/listening to this relationship.

Dammit!!! Just listening to this made me tear up! Just as an angry person too, just hearing your story of how much you cared about your mom hit a soft spot in my soul! Thank you for shedding a light! Its like seeing your older brother cry. It isnt normal and when it happens legitimately, it opens something special! 😭😭😭

Your podcasts with Mariel are my favorite. Thank you so much for sharing with us

Taking abreak from my studies and im blessed with a new episode

Mariel is such a sweet soul!! love seeing her on the show great episode

Hi David, thanks for this video. This episode really hits home for me. My father is a pastor, and he and my mom left everything in Korea (their status, their new home, and their entire family) so that he could go to divinity school to follow God's calling. When he first started out, he pastored all-caucasian churches within the Methodist conference. But a couple of years into ministry, he got an opportunity to pastor a Korean church. Being Korean, my parents (especially my dad) were pretty excited. Here was a church where they could comfortably speak their native tongue, enjoy homemade food, and fellowship with other immigrants. Man, we were so wrong that it makes hell look like heaven... I met my boyfriend at that church (which might be the only redeeming quality about this experience). His dad was initially incredibly helpful and sweet to our family, and my dad decided to make him into an elder. The church really needed some more upright leaders. But as soon as he got the elder title, he went on this power trip and single handedly decided that my parents weren't good enough. He and his wife started telling lies about my dad and that my mom was pushing people to come to bible study (wtf?). They dictated what my mom could wear, say, and do. They hated the sermons because they focused too much on the scriptures. They tore down decorations that my mom put in bathrooms because it was TOO BIBLICAL. At a church. They ended up standing my dad in front of the entire congregation and criticized him of everything that he's done wrong and how worthless he is. They kicked him, my mom, and their self-worth out of the door. Michael and I are still going strong, but he has sacrificed talking to his family for almost 2 years now. To this day, we still get phone calls from his dad saying how horrible we are and that "we're not going to get away with it." Honestly, it's just funny at this point. I wanted to thank you for shedding light on the broken nature of the immigrant church. This problem is pervasive within our community, and unfortunately, there is no end in sight.

As soon as I realized David was crying, oh man......freaking waterfalls were coming out of my eyes. Cried for a good 10 minutes after cause I really needed it Dx

I was heading to work and started to tear up. Eff u David 😂💕 much love. Keep up the great content

Man this episode was so emotional and awesome!

I AM HERE AND I LOVE YOUR PODCAST!

So proud of you David! ♥️

Damnit David! I was literally laughing then somehow started getting teary-eyed out of nowhere while packing my clothes!

Hey David!! Just wanted to let you know how much I love Genius Brain. Before that I never really watched your videos, just didn’t really connect with me and the only time I enjoyed watching you was from JKNews by how funny and crazy you were. But yeah ever since you created Genius Brain I’ve been watching since the first video and haven’t missed a single one even when majority of the people you talk to I have no idea who they are. Btw I love your relationship with Mariel, the way she speaks is so adorable. 😁

This is my favorite episode so far, hilarious but emotional

Thank you for a great podcast. It was genuine and personal and refreshing.

I can relate to the part when you talked about your rage... I hope you guys make a cut for that particular part so that I can share this to some key peoples to my life. Thanks David, this means I'm actually not alone feeling the same thing...

I think skipping it helps out more than watching the whole thing right? The reason why they add a skip is to help the channel otherwise you watch the ad and give them nothing? That's what I remember years ago

Thats so true!!! David do look more relaxed now than the old David in pictures! But it's true what they say the older you get the wiser you get. David has the biggest and genuine heart ever! Love these podcasts with Mariel!! Sucha sweet person!

david i genuinely love and respect u

I was listening to this at work and when David's voice started cracking, I got teary eyed :(

how cute!! They're matching flannels!!

Love the podcasts david, keep them up dude

Yes! Episode was wonderful!!! Thank you David.

You made me cry at work omgah 😭😭 I love you both so much

yo man i just wanna say this is my favourite episode and by far my favourite podcast out there.

Thanks for bawling your eyes out David!

This podcast made me laugh and cry. I look forward to these so much and tbh your podcasts is what made me start watching your channel again. I love your relationship with Mariel and I love how you seeing you two talk and share stories gives us insight and an actual taste of how you guys interact with each other on a daily basis. BTW, pls speak more Japanese with Mariel I fking love it, I cry laughing. If you want to get better at Japanese I really recommend the Genki and Tobira textbooks. I use these in college rn, and I've reached a pretty good conversational level in speaking, and a good enough level of reading to get by. Although I do study at least an hour a day which is hard to do if you are outside of a school setting.

Thank you for this video!! Love seeing both of you

i was watching bart's vlog , then i saw mariel in the thumbnail and immediately clicked , i knew it will be good

I love seeing you and Mariel !!

I LOVE MARIEL! She's so cute and she's great for podcasts!!! She knows how to bring the conversation back after it gets a little off topic lol

Thank for making me cry too ... came here for the laughs and then stayed for the tears

Wow David this episode got me man love that you can open up through this platform you’re a great guy man
