I'm a 400 year old woman who watches your videos from a cave with my two baby bearded dragons. I just wanted to say that my generation loves what Zade is doing with the edits.
baffling to me that there are actually people who dislike Zade's editing... the slurping sounds when Cody's head goes out of frame??? the flies in the mouth??? the incredible intros?? literally top tier humor
It’s crazy how his relationship with content is so healthy. You see a lot of creatives always worried about others opinions but Cody just does what’s he thinks best for him.
I’ve watched Cody for a while and I can’t lie he’s definitely gotten FUNNIER to me imo 😭😭 like even without the editing Cody’s humor is just so immature yet shows his age at the same time and i love it 😂 the trinkets joke had me crying actual tears
@@GetCrazyXD well people have different types of humor 🤷🏽♀️ that’s why i stated “to me” it’s ok if u don’t agree, not every video has to be 150% funny
@Merle Ginsberg Official yeah i was thinking same thing lol. They still make plenty of very dark jokes on the podcast at least. They fef don't shy away from it at all unless he wants them to be genuinely offensive which isn't their content.
@@GetCrazyXD @Merle Ginsberg Official right what do you mean by woke lol its such an umbrella term now that no one knows what you mean when you use it. so politics aside, cody's just funny. saying he isnt funny just because hes "woke" sounds like a bit from fox 🤷
I think Cody is in a happier, better place in his life so he punches up not down. I think people are used to him being more cynical, but he’s a husband and gonna be a dad someday soon in the future. He’s happy and his humor is more friendly. I think that’s why people think he’s changed. He’s in a good place in life
I actually LOVE the way Cody’s humor has evolved. When I watch the older videos I’m able to truly appreciate just how his humor and style has shifted over the years. I barely find his older stuff funny now tbh 😭 Probably because of the way my own sense of humor has shifted. I think whatever his humor has evolved it is exactly the kind I enjoy watching. There’s something so chill and authentic about his content recently. And I like how pumped and extreme it gets at random times. It’s a nice balance and energy. There will always be people who end up not enjoying the way in which you’ve changed and I think that’s fine too.
I love the way Cody handled this complaint from his fans. He showed that he cares but he’s still him and I think at its core we all watch him because he’s authentically Cody no matter what
please dont stop the button videos, they always help me chill and laugh after a stressful day. i've been going through a tough year and anytime Cody uploads a new button video it cheers me up even if its only for like 10 minutes it helps
It honestly made me feel happy- Not because I want to see less, but when people take the necessary breaks they need before they burn out, they spend more time in better health & thus more time creating fun stuff for us to watch!
@@DogeLlamathing is you don't need to get there. Cody has been going for so long uninterrupted doing such good and chill content, the fact he doesn't burn out just goes to show how healthy he takes it and how much fun he has doing it
@@yurilopes420 Well while I agree that he definitely comes across as someone who has it completely locked down, it’s pretty dangerous to decide that for him- We don’t see everything behind the scenes and that’s okay, we shouldn’t; However, my intention was to express personal support for creators taking breaks at their own convenience & not based on what the audience response to doing so would be.
I feel like as I get older and grow, Cody’s humor moves and grows with me and I know a ton of people feel the same way. May just be the similar age group but his content always hits even as it evolves and changes.
his videos did change and to the better, he’s said time and again for the past few months that he’s making more content that he likes and is proud of and it’s actually noticeable how much more he enjoys making videos, loving every part of it
I personally find that the editing enhances Cody’s humour. I totally understand that Zade and Cody have very different comedic styles and obviously different outlets for their comedy (Cody talks and uses body language in video form, Zade edits amazing clips, intros and memes into the videos) but I think that’s what makes it great. Cody’s usual dad humour and commentary is funny as ever, and Zade’s humour of almost taunting or teasing Cody through the editing is also hilarious. It’s a very playful back and forth between them, the little comments Cody makes directly to Zade just for Zade to do the opposite. I get it that it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I just wanted to show both Cody and Zade some love for all the laughs they have provided me, and whooo boy do they provide
Man, Cody is so freaking positive about everything, I love it, so inspiring. What a lovely dude. Edit: I genuinely mean it, lol he sees the good in everything, it's so nice, not sarcastic!
I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic or not but I actually agree, everything he says is really positive, and even the negative he brings with a joke or says something along the lines of “saw this coming” or “yeah I deserved that” etc. i really like his outlook on life and he inspires me to be grateful because to me he shows that he truly is for the life he’s earned
@@bruce_gregg This reply is funny because I see most positivity as sarcastic, too. I've been so bogged down with negativity as I get older. It's hard to stay positive, but if you can do it, it makes your life feel so much better.
I’m a 38 year old married woman with two little ones and I love watching your videos. They make me laugh and it’s always something to look forward to. Keep doing you. There’s lots of people who appreciate your work. Just adding that Zade’s editing is brilliant and very funny. Please keep doing what you’re doing. We appreciate your work also.
I'm a 30 year old single woman who has followed Cody since Vine. He's matured but is still so goofy and fun. I like that he's acknowledging comments that aren't outwardly positive and reacting maturely to them.
Cody is so optimistic about everything. Over the past months, his humor is not only a source of inspiration and happiness for me but also his training videos and music content. I love how he and his work is evolving and how I can grow with it too. Keep going, you’re amazing!
As an editor myself, Zade's work here is my biggest source of inspiration for my own stuff. I understand the style not working to everyone, but I think he absolutely does deserve the praise. Both Cody and Zade, keep up the great work!!!
Tbh I had the opposite experience with Cody's content. At first I didn't really vibe with his almost frat boy energy but as time has gone by I find his content and Kelsey's so endearing and funny, even if there's cringe humor or overly edited stuff, there's a fondness that has grown in me for both of them idk idk
Same, I would watch his vids every now and then and think they were okay, but now I find myself tuning in for all his uploads. His current sense of humor + Zade's editing slap imo. The editing has occasionally been a little too much for my tastes, but honestly he hits way more than he misses imo
The That's Cringe videos definitely had their time and hold a lot of nostalgia for me. I rewatch them all the time. It's a different kind of humor now but I can appreciate both. People change and their content should evolve to reflect that. I think that's what you and Noel have done with the podcasts. Maybe the Button videos aren't as witty as the That's Cringe ones but they are still classics that make me chuckle.
I think Cody has actually been more funny lately. You can't hide from the positive effects of working out on your mental and energy, as well as being in a beautiful relationship. Love him.
Not sure when it was, maybe a year ago, Cody was saying how he was kinda in a funk and didn't have much creativity and was burning out from RU-vid. I think he just stopped caring about the algorithm and growth and everything else that comes with growing his channel. There's also a very obvious correlation between his happiness and when he started training. Whatever it is, he's figured out that his fans fw him cause of him, not cause of whatever trend or content he's doing. He's happier, funnier, and IMO this is the best he's ever been. Nothing can ever beat That's Cringe, but he's an instant click and full watch through ... And look at his views/like ratio, they're the best I've seen on RU-vid by far.
@@MidwestAF2 If you honestly think he’s working for free at the capacity that he is & with Cody’s multi-channel income, then deductive reasoning is not your thing brotha.
I literally started climbing, biking, and hiking because you inspired me to have a “do hard things that are purposeful” mindset instead of my former “never challenge yourself or be uncomfy” mindset
Ngl I been watching your stuff for years now, and every time you release I cook myself up a nice meal and sit down and watch it while I eat. It's become a integral part of my relaxation after long days of work/training. I've loved what you've put out for years now and will continue to, I think I speak for a lot when I say you've built quite a bit of brand loyalty lmao 😂
Deadass I feel like sm of the content online and just in general be so negative and like idk jus depressing lol. Idk maybe my RU-vid feed a lil fucked up. I like his and Noel’s style
How could you hate on this editing? It’s just so creative. Both of them have their own creative methods, and I honestly just love to see Cody evolve. It’s not like I have my own “type” or comedy that I enjoy, Cody just IS part of my comedy. No matter what he does, he’s just an infectiously humorous person.
I read this just as Cody was reading the Reddit comment trash talking Zade & I just find it hilarious how butthurt people get over compliments being given to someone that they don’t know and have absolutetly no affiliation with. I think Zade is incredibly talented as well so I’ve left some praise on a couple videos just to push the recognition & he dropped into the thread and even took the time to answer some questions; Which, in my mind, makes me even more glad to see people hyping him up. Genuine humility is really admirable, especially when you consider that dude on Reddit actively spent his time projecting some insecurity of his onto benign positive remarks; While, in contrast Zade browsed comments to thank people for expressing their sentiments because he wanted to, it’d be so much less time consuming for someone in that position to just acknowledge the positive feedback to themselves & move on. Anyway, that should fill my Zade glaze quota for the next few weeks here which is dope- I get a whole FIVE jolly ranchers every other week & one high five on the third friday of every month, so it’s a pretty sweet gig outside of all the weight I lose every week from malnourishment.
@Zade You better not. Otherwise, we'll all switch up on you entirely, make Reddit accounts, and throw tantrums anytime someone says something nice about you! 😤😤
To be real it doesn’t surprise me that Cody is good at mixing. His background in coding, music, and creativity in general makes it not super surprising that he could kill it at being a DJ. A true renaissance man
My man, I'm a grown ass 26 year old man, I have my bachelors, my masters degree, and I'm working on my doctorate rn. Bro literally everything you put out consistently makes me smile from ear to ear and brings my dumb lil heart great joy. Not to mention working out and training alongside CodyTrains. Don't listen to the haters and keep putting out all your masterpieces!🤣 And tell your homie Zade to keep doing the edits they're fucking fire; I felt so bad when you read the comments coming after him and I was like 'aww, he's actually not putting any edits in here' 😢
in a serious way, watching cody and his content recently, AND KELSEY so so much.. is seriously helping me. im like in the worst time of my probably entire life right now and being able to laugh and feel like tomorrow is going to be okay just because of a creator , is INSANEEE but it’s honestly super helpful so thank you lol. i watched him a lot years ago but i fell off a little so super glad i’m back to watching frequently now
I adore you Cody. You are so honest and genuine. I feel like you a Kelsey are my friends. I enjoy so much of what you both create. Never let people make you feel bad for changing or growing. Such is life. Your parasocial friend :)
I can honestly say i enjoy cody’s content so much right now. I’ve always been a fan but I can definitely see the growth as he has gotten older. Past videos seemed to have a sprinkle of frat boy energy, where as now i feel like he is even more genuine in the content he produces, not saying he wasn’t in the past. I love how he motivates his fan base on top of his comedic genius. Also I think many agree the editing is sick, Zade is doing gods work in Cody’s basement
I’m thoroughly enjoying the videos, it feels like your stuff is more authentic and you’re making what YOU want to make, not catering it to what’s popular. Also, Zade is absolutely killing it, make sure to let him have some sunlight every once and a while he deserves it
Your videos are my comfort videos. Whenever I get back home after a long day and I see theres a video out I get so excited! My favorite nights are when I get to sit down with dinner and watch your new video-- it always makes me feel so happy and comforted. Sometimes I'll even save the video to watch later because if I watch it immediately I'm Cody Ko-less for the next week or so. I hope you know that there are so many of us here that absolutely love everything you put out and we can see that you're in such a positive and happy place!! It's very inspiring.
I really HATE when creators change up their editing for the younger crowd but I have to say, Cody’s editing / his editor does a great job. I’m always dying laughing at the editing please don’t change
that's exactly how my bf is now lol. I've been talking about Cody and Noel for the almost 3 years I've known my bf and he only recently got into watching their videos and he cannot miss a single one now
no fr, i went off cody a few months back around last year, but he's been KILLING it recently, zade works together so well with cody's natural humour and the videos have had me in stitches, goblin mode has me absolutely crying every time
I LOVE the change that Cody has gone through just like everyone else is saying the editing is great and Cody still has the same humor as always he’s just more optimistic and light hearted which I think is a good breath of fresh air from the rest of RU-vid!
I can tell Cody is very much enjoying making videos these days which is probably the change he’s referring to. It’s cool to hear that he understands that creating content can still hold artistic value if you actually use the experiences around you to fuel yourself creatively. Never stop never stopping! Also the Friday beers sketch is so funny, I hope you do more with them. Maybe on simi valley season 4??🤔
im heavy into edm and honestly cody is killing it with the house music lately. hearing a cody ko set at a festival would have me going absolutely feral in the pit
Cody does have a natural talent when it comes to composing music, especially this house genre. Like each track he played reminds me of “ we are your friends “ zac’s character. It instantly got me in the mood to just groove to it. Cody, please make more music. You are quite good at it.
I always love hearing Cody talk about trying new things and success because he just gives it straight. You gotta TRY new things to TRY new things. So just go TRY.
I actually took a break from your content like around 2020-2022 but recently came back as I’m in a different place in life and you’re still just as funny as I remember. I love seeing your new evolution as a content creator!!
I love Zade’s editing like it’s sooooo good and creative. The editing makes it easier to watch (not saying that I couldn’t watch Cody without it, just saying that I love the editing personally)
I have to disagree, I think it’s getting old heating slurping sounds every time his face goes out of view, the face filter zade puts on cody is overdone now & i’ve seen a fly edited to come out of cody’s mouth like 5 times
Dude what?! I’ve watched Cody for like 8 yrs now and he’s gotten so much more fun to watch! I used to watch his channel back in the day bc of Noel, but I’ve really really enjoyed his content more these past 2-3 yrs. ESPECIALLY THE BUTTON VIDS, NEVER STOP CODY!!!
I honestly love your videos, and I think the evolution in your humour is brilliant (as well as the amazing editing). In a vacuum I can see why people wouldn't find it funny but damn, your videos just work so well. I also love the wholesomeness of you reacting to everyone who is inspired by CodyTrains. People getting hyped up about other people's victories is just so amazing. It's genuinely just a fun experience to watch your videos!
Been watching you for years now and I love the changes and honestly have never been more engaged in your content, keeping making videos that make you happy. The right viewers will grow with you 💜
Genuinely appreciate your honesty about how content metamorphosizes as creators do. RU-vidrs have to make videos that resonate with them first; inauthenticity is exhausting and viewers DEFINITELY notice. People grow and change, and there will be falloff no matter what. But, there will also be new audiences to reach and resonate with. :) Personally, my husband and I have loved your newer stuff. We were big fans of That's Cringe (aren't we all) and other laid back comedy so Cody & Ko content always makes us laugh. Its our go-to lunchtime viewing. Thank you for what you do! Happy marriage to you and Kelsey as well!
1. Release the second song first please 2. The sketch you did with friday beers was awesome. Not only have you changed as a creator, but you've changed as an actor too (both in great ways). The differences between your acting in Simi Valley and that sketch were night and day. It's so clear that you've grown just in your overall skill levels and it's been a really cool development to watch over the years.
Yeah the weird but also cool thing about RU-vid is that the content is always changing. It's not like a TV show that can manufacture the same type of episodes year after year. When the content creator grows so does the content. I think that my humor has evolved in some of the same ways as my favorite content creators (like you and jacksepticeye) but not everyone can feel that way. Just keep pumping out what you think is best and someone will be there to enjoy it, whether its a new fan or an old one
Thank you for the rant about uncovering potential. Currently on a weight loss journey and have been feeling down because I’ve been plateauing. But I know I just need to push myself - so yeah lol I appreciate the topical inspiration. Much love to you and Kelsey 🙏
Sick beats, dude. 3:16 is dope. Please more producing and DJing. As someone who's been trying to get ableton down for the past year, I would watch the shit out of a new DJing channel. Impressed by the sound quality, sound professional. Edit: put out all of them
Thank you for being so open and acknowledging that our humor changes based on what we are going through. It is important to see the growth and accept that we change. Also, I wanna hear the full version of the first song!!
Cody your videos are genuinely so good for my health and so comforting. They are still very funny in my book and zades editing is perfection. Also man you are killing it with the music I hope you'll play at a festival one day!
Dude your music is fireeee. I'm thoroughly impressed every time you drop a sample in a video. Definitely keep pursing this dream. Hope to see you on a festival line up some day!!
Cody. Genuinely from the bottom of my heart I want to thank you for helping me be a better person in my formative years. I've been watching your videos since middle school and I've always strived to have the bright spirit and good heart you have. During my sophomore year of hs I became incredibly depressed after the death of a friend and I used your videos to help me heal through that. I remember my head always being heavy during that time, but the pressure that had built on me instantly evaporated every time I laughed at a video of yours. Im a junior now, still struggling, but getting better little by little and I attribute a lot of that to you.
Reddit is legit for miserable people so I wouldn't put too much stock in certain posts. I'm pushing 30 and personally find your videos very funny. My husband and I watch your videos together. Keep up the good work
I was just gonna say that reddit's audience does not make a very good representation of the general audience (i used to frequent that god forsaken site myself) because the rest of us DO enjoy Cody's humor and Zade's top notch editing
@@Hannah-uf1qk Ever since I moved over from twitter in favor of reddit, I agree! That place is horrible and honestly the only social media that isn't insufferable anymore is twitch and youtube.
@@ae831 but Twitter is awful too😭 I’m scared of people on Twitter because they can be so vicious. Honestly I think im just gonna get rid of social media in general
I don't usually get many emotional reactions from videos when I watch them by myself, but Cody your videos never fail to make me laugh so hard. Also, I've also always loved exercising and with the stress of University I've found a lot of relief through it. Watching your training progress and everything else makes me really happy and I don't usually get that from RU-vid content so I want to say thank you Cody. You're a real one.
Cody it's been amazing to see you grow into yourself and experiment with your content while not taking yourself too seriously!! Will always watch, even your most boring moments are more entertaining than most ❤keep it up!!!!!! We love ya.
I personally laugh out loud with every video, throughout the years and now. Just keep filming whatever you enjoy, it’s about you and what you want to do put out here. Zade, you’re the best, keep it up. ❤
Cody, we support you so much and love to see this new amped-up style. Zade is incredible and does magic with your footage. Thank you for all that you do.
Man I’ve been around this channel for like 5 years now and I gotta say the vids are still just as good and just as funny as ever, keep doing what you enjoy and the majority will enjoy it with you, your content only truly takes a turn for the worse when u angle it to what people ask for rather than what you enjoy. Doubt you’ll see it but much love yo !
