Not gonna lie, 19 minute long video with your mother talking about her divorce didn’t sound particularly exciting, but I was glued to the screen the whole time. I could listen to her stories all night long
Same. I actually clicked off of it after 30 secs when it first came out... but after watching the one w his brother Jessie, I had to return to watch it in its entirety. 💁🏼
The story about her ex-boyfriend totally broke my heart. I can only imagine what that must've been like for her. Your mom seems like such a sweet person. I hope you include her (as herself) in more of your videos. 😊
This has to be a series. I've never seen your mother before but I sat glued to the screen for 19 minutes. Loved how open you both were. You would make a great interviewer, you should really do more.
lolacola he’s actually a really cool guy and with his podcast you learn about the other people in the vlog squad btw it’s just not his podcast because he does it with his friend Rydoon
i prefer this format way more over the "normal" vlogging style with nothing but jump cuts and almost forced conversation, this is the type of convo most of us would actually experience in real life and its still so entertaining
Brandon, as someone who lost their Mom you'll never regret recording this conversation. Thank you for sharing. So many things I wish I could have asked mine looking back. Hold your parents tight while you have them everyone. Mine was gone at age 46 from nothing...
Lindsey DeClue I’m so sorry about your Mom. Thanks for sharing your story and for reminding me to make the most of every minute I have with my Mom. We have such a tumultuous, dysfunctional relationship and oftentimes I take her presence for granted. I need to make more of an effort to appreciate her.
Just as an observer, I feel as though your mother is the type of person who can teach the world a whole lot. There's something about her presence that tells me she has a whole lot of life experience, and the way she shares those experiences is captivating.
I love Brandon. He obviously really cares about people and puts them first. It must be hard for him to find his emotional footing in a world full of huge personalities. I love that he doesn’t seem to play to the audience- it doesn’t feel like you’re having to put everything he says through a truth-monitor to decipher whether it’s authentic or pretend-authentic.
I’m going to love this, the idea to have conversations with the people in your life is the best. When my dad died I made it my mission to learn everything about him, my mom, and their life along with others.
Omg what a small freaking world!!! I used to eat at Millie’s all the time! They had monster big cinnamon rolls - ask you mom about them!! They had walnuts & raisins and they would scoop so much icing on them & BUTTER! It was on the corner of Balboa & Vanowen 😆😆😆
The story of her first loves death hit me hard. This year I lost my bestfriend, that word is a understatement, we were eachothers other halves. We didn’t go a hour without talking to eachother for years. We had our kids 2 months apart and raised them together. Never had one disagreement. In January we were leaving my house to go somewhere & as I was putting on my shoes my 2 y/o daughter was upset I was leaving, so my bestfriend told me to stay and she’d be back in a bit. She pulled out of my driveway at 10:15. & 10:31 she texted me checking in. & at 11 I got the worst migraine, and little did I know she was murdered in that same instant. We now know the person who murdered her had premeditated it, I was supposed to be there & I feel as if she saved my life without knowing it. I miss her terribly
Out of all the interviews he’s done this is one where I fully watched. Watching his mom explains a lot about Brandon and how smart he is and how clam he is.
To be honest, that's how my husband and I got together. I was a sever/bartender and he was a cook. He just started working there and the one main rule in the restaurant was, "front of the house doesn't mesh with back of the house, period, no matter what." So when my husband started he was do good looking but was a cook, so the start was a mission but I feel like it made us really see that we did want to be together no matter what, and there was a lot of shit talk and bets of how long we would last...20 years later and 3 kids later was the best ROLLER COASTER ride ever but it worked and could not be happier 😎, and suck it to all the assholes who lost money on the bets that we wouldn't last 😎😎😎🤗🤗🤩😝😝
This is the one that got deleted a cupola weeks ago that was only up for like 1 hour. I was lucky enuff to see it. Your mom is so cool and open and strong. She seems like a great women.❤❤
It’s great that you fell so comfortable putting this out. It’s nice watching real shit. It’s nice being an older watcher seeing real stuff like Jason’s last vid with a therapist
Your mom is lovely! I'm digging her tattoos from what I can see. Please do more videos with her, I feel like she has been through alot and has some great life advice!
Brandon my favourite episode of the pod was when your mom came on and now this is my favourite video on your channel. There something so comforting about your mom. Love her 🥰
Your so lucky to have your mom in your life! I miss those kinds of conversations with my mom. She died of cancer when I was 19 so seeing this video makes me wish she was still here so I could talk to her about her life and my life now that I'm 31. I would have so many questions for her. Anyways, cherish your mom because you are so blessed to still have her!
The way your mother speaks about being a mom and how protective she felt over her unborn baby was very touching and sweet. She was willing to do it on her own and that’s really what being a mother is about.
It's awesome seeing a whole other side to you man. I love both of your channels. Definitely one of my favorite RU-vidrs and one of the inspirations behind me starting my very own channel. Cheers dude.
i loved this!! you interview people really well.. where you do not overpower, you just ask the right quesitons at the right time and input well. this was also so raw and real :) your mom seems great
Wow your poor mother with the death of her boyfriend. Made me so sad :( I lost my boyfriend of 7 years, 2 1/2, almost 3 (January 22) years ago and I still think about it everyday. Hardest thing I’ve EVER been through. He was only 24.
Loved this. So real & important. Parents are people too. We have dreams & struggles too. But being a mom is the greatest gift. I unequivocally agree with her there. Also. Your mom is absolutely beautiful. Thank You for sharing. Cheers. 💙
B R A N D O N ! ! ! This is you Boo! I have been watching you with Jason and Trisha and I could not figure you out. These car interviews are spot on. You are awesome with this and I love your mom and her personality. Great job love it!
My parents finalized their divorce a couple weeks ago. This video gives you a lot of insight and shows that they are hurting from too. Thank you Brandon.
I’m LOVING these car interviews!!! You are a very intuitive and sincere when talking or “interviewing” these people that are sometimes misunderstood. This has now become my favorite thing to watch! Please don’t stop! These are amazing! You are a rare breed!
I felt when my grandmother was passing away. I was at my house watching tv, and I could just feel her going. It was bizarre because I kept watching tv and felt relaxed as if I was saying goodbye to someone who was already tired of fighting and somehow I understood it. A few mins later I heard my sister screaming to the phone, she came into the room I was in, and I just said "yea grandma died" So I understand where your mom is coming from. A few years later on my first night living alone i felt her presence, and I felt so at peace. I later felt her at a car accident I had. And that was it, I know she is always there, and I always talk to her. I am not religious or anything, but i can't deny what I felt. I was extremely close to her, she was everything to me, and I hope to see her again some day.
That opening story about her first really affected me. I can't perfectly imagine how it feels to completely lose someone that way but, I totally understand that feeling of worrying about someone you love and then having your worst fears confirmed. This this the best video of this series. Thank you for sharing this.
This is truly what I love to watch on RU-vid. Just real ass shit. The struggles and hard times of people’s lives. Not just jokes and playing games for skits. Sitting down and just telling your story. I wish there was more of a trend like this, and I can see why you and Jason get along so well because I see it in him too. Your mom is a Saint, she seems like she has an amazing soul, with some spark like every mother who has gone through shit. I hope to see more like this.
I looove the realness of this...no show...no fake stuff.. just real conversation.I enjoy listening to people tell their stories.Too bad not many people do this anymore.You are a wise old soul Brandon.Keep it up.You get it.
I really enjoy the uncut and organic flow of this as you just keep driving and speaking. Feels like raw storytelling. I'd love to see more of this from you
These videos are pure gold. Your mom seems like an awesome, honest human being. Can’t wait to see what you post next & I hope she appears in more videos!
Tell your mom thank you for sharing some of her life story. This was so real and raw. I hope you do more interviews like this Brandon because I absolutely loved this. I was enthralled from beginning to end.
Love this. Your mom seems like such a strong and awesome person. Also can see where you get a lot of your mannerisms and charm. Such a great video. Please don't ever stop doing what you're doing, Brandon!! Your videos are a breath of fresh air amongst miles and miles of mind numbing vapid toxic waste.
Brandon! Yes! This is so amazingly genuine, I relate so much to your mother and she seems like such an interesting down to earth lass I want more of her!
So sweet to your mom....especially at the end of it...I hope my boys say I love you and kiss my cheek when they’re older and we’re cruising around...really sweet, b. 💕
