'Freaking nerd' lmao

4:52 "I dont have feeling, I have modes" GOD DAMN

i friggen love these back and forth videos

The best thing about this series is i get to see how differently each of your brains work, which, as someone who plays but still has a long way to go, helps because maybe one of you will say how you look at a subject and, while I kinda get it I'll say "I dont think that way at all" then the other person has a perspective that's validates how my brain works. Super resourceful I hope you guys do this for ever.

"What are feelings? I don't have any feelings, I just have Modes". Hahahahaha

“What are feelings? I don’t have any feelings - I just have modes” on a t-shirt now.

He gives a long explanation about the modes and then to the simple explanation, then he goes you’re a nerd😂😂 you guys are hilarious

As a guitar player this was so good. Hearing how you guys approach music and making sense of these concepts is so dope and helpful on how I can grow as a musician🙏🏾

Nice! Keep these coming!

Great topic and interesting breakdown.

"just because, guitar" yeah exactly that

Nice video

This is a really interesting video, and the exercise of taking a chord voicing and thinking about which notes correspond to what intervals relative to all 12 notes as a root is really useful for me. Underrated content. Also the b2 stretch between 1 and 3 and the "fuck you" made me laugh haha

Super interesting and helpful to see two varying perspectives on subjects like this. Thanks!

I love this please do more

Best yet. Need to finish where your progression was going. That was great.

yo get this podcast back on track . this my fave guitar nerd thingy podcast

I’d love if you guys talked about improvising!

Shred mastaaahs

7:48 "flat 9 and regular 5" But I believe it'd be a #5/b6. Still definitely right about the E Phrygian though, just think it was misspoken. The chord is E F C G. Could be viewed as Em (b9,b6), or Cadd4 in 1st inversion, or even a Fmaj9 (no3) in 3rd inversion.

I like Josh's approach better, it sounds like less effort and more fun! One question I have for Josh - how would you recommend learning the major scale on the fretboard? 3NPS or pentatonic, or something else?

Let’s take e minor just cos.. guitar hahaha

Jesus fucking christ dude lol you guys are super intelligent with music theory and how it works! I have been playing guitar off and on now for about 30 years and I still dont understand music theory or time signature. I just pick up and play/by ear or matching notes and drum pattern? or same with any other instruments or finding patterns in the music how they "reset"? if that makes sense. Chords I just make up random shapes and adjust the frets/fingers but idk the sounds and patterns to me seem colors and shapes if that makes sense?

Its bizarre seeing you guys talk theory. Here i am explaining to my bass player play this and this and have no idea what I'm talking about lol
