See I love Slime because he does consider comedy an art form worth analyzing deeply yet he also laughs at farts like a child would do. Mans appreciates the low hanging fruit as much as the high cuz end of the day its all fruit
@@DanielLopez-gg1duAgreed. Fart jokes are just universally funny, to the point where they require an active decision not to find them funny. I think it's rooted in the fact that comedy is, at it's core, just the subversion of expectations delivered in a well-timed and cleverly-delivered package. Farting, being a disruption of social taboos AND a sudden noise/odor represents the absolute bare-bones form of comedy, distilled.
i live watched him put himself in the empty chair and laugh like little gremlin man and there’s just no way to replicate the feeling it gave me ever again, this whole stream concept is so silly and funny slime the commentary goat
Holy shit. Slime dissecting the podcast and his friends is something I never thought I'd need but now I want more. Mans could do a whole thesis paper analyzing his friends and the comedy within the group.
Damn, now I wanna see Nick and Aiden react and talk through how'd they would respond to Slimes annotated podcast. Like a build a bear podcast they just keep adding layers
this video really helped me to appreciate Nick's humor. I always liked his one liners, but I didn't know he was getting busy like this. Just down in the ditches with the muck, getting physical with a spade n shit. Love of the game
@ManWithFace Bro your both autistic the minute you treat conversations like chess. You want some amount of planning for a podcast of course since its like an hour long and you need to entertain but… Just go with the flow at the end of the day you still have other autistic people who will accept you … if it doesn’t work out. Dont let yourself be run by fear your whole life
I'm not sure if I should take Slime's comedy analysis seriously or completely disregard it and that's what makes him my goat. Jokes aside this is genuinely great content.
The way Slime breaks down and analyzes comedy is more inspiring and thought-provoking than any of the writing advice I've ever been given by any professor or peer.
Watching this is seeing a father experience the true joy that can only be found through parenting, the joy that you get when your child has grown up and is off to live their own life, and that comforting feeling that you know they will be alright.
This is actually such a useful video. There are a lot of things that slimes does that I have done before but going deeper and realizing why and how those things work is super helpful.
actually fucking loved this stream, i've wanted to see slime analyze comedy like this for ages and this was possibly the best thing i could have hoped for
English secondary teacher here, I would never actually compare Slime to a teacher because his concept of classroom management (stream moderation in this case) is very strong-arm/iron-fist (i.e. he cracks down on "undesirable behavior" very harshly for a "teacher") but the way in which he talks about language/communication in a collaborative setting is very much in line with how we analyze dialogue in a literary piece, like a conversation out of a novel or play. the analysis of the flow of comedic speech is something you will see in a higher-level discussion around one of Shakespeare's comedies or a more nuanced book like Gatsby or East of Eden. tl;dr it's good slop and i want more pls thank u mr starr
I know comedy is the main aspect of this podcast and i get why you're so focused on it, i mean you guys are funny as shit and it's fucking great, but i ALSO really enjoy the moments when you guys are more serious and invested in a topic, i think it's genuinely interesting and cool listening to what you have to say on certain stuff. I also feel like Aiden partakes in this the most and that's pretty cool. Idk it's just my 2 cents that nobody asked for, but hey it's the internet so i can post this anyway.
I love the idea of Anthony becoming just a chest and head that is still alive and healthy. It's only a few rewrites away from being a sitcom called The Boys in Slim Time
Slime breaking down how he gets to his jokes and how Nick just has different options made me realise that Slime is the NA melee only knowing the 5 gods but Nick is like Moky
I love this video because you can just tell that slime really enjoys podcasting. Like even if the money wasn't good he would probably still do it. Also he talks about comedy like it's a fighting game and I kind of love it.
i love it when you guess what they're going to say and you pop off. you talked about it on the pod and seeing you so happy about this fills me with joy. it's so hype.
I think the yard could survive without slime, but it’s a better product as a whole with him around. His presence also allows the others to use a part of their humor they would not hit the same without him
I've never really broken down comedy like that before, and I don't know if I'd be able to even if I tried. This is a really interesting view into a different perspective. I wonder if it ever gets tiring always viewing things like this, since slime mentioned that he's always in this kind of analytical mode, at least for comedy
It's so funny watching him go from "why are the comments saying I'm autistic" to "watch me intricately explain and break down this thing in extreme depth and tell you why its funny and how i could make it even funnier" that's my GOAT
salute to the editor for not reusing the anthony clip when it came up in the chronology, holy shit that stuff kills me when the intro clip to a video is still in there
RE: the point on summoning salt creating documentaries that are formulaic, and that being ok. documentaries don't have to be formulaic though. i recommend you check out the film Behemoth directed by Zhao Lang for a perfect example of this. a documentary can be facts based and informative while also being poetic and beautiful, editorializing and the presentation are what make a great documentary stand out (aside from just goated subject matter). summoning salt may have stood out in the world of youtube video essays when he hit the scene but the problem is that for the most part he keeps making the same videos without even an adjustment to the formula. yes he spawned legions of copycat content but surely you agree that some of the biters are just as good or better than an average summoning salt vid. your legend of zelda comparison about entertainingly formulaic illustrates this too, playing the same zelda game over and over is not why the series is so great, its the secret sauce they inject every new game. pokemon vs zelda in terms of formulaic, you feel me?
It's so interesting to see slime break down his and his friends' comedy and style because no joke i do the exact same thing in social situations, especially ones with my friends where I'm comfortable to make jokes that I know they would understand. All of the things that slime is saying is going through my mind in an attempt to come up with the funniest possible thing I could say except live during the interaction. am i autistic
ever since i have watched this a switch has flipped in my brain and i now find myself analyzing comedy in the same way as in this video. thank you slime my life will be permanently changed
You know I’ve watched every episode of the yard but I’ve never watched anyone’s individual content (I found them after I binged all of chuckle sandwich and got recommended their ep with schlatt). so this is my first solo slime video ever and I always thought hmm sure yeah slimes probably a little silly in the brain but now I have no doubt about it Regardless. I am slime-pilled
Does anybody know the name of the synth song on the melee-sad-post-car-driving video? I’m really curious because I’ve heard it before and I don’t know where.
