Vinnie Hacker Reveals His Favorite Musician - Ep. 31 

Love you Brett! Thank you for being there for Cooper ❤️

I didn’t know Cooper personally and yet I’ve cried every day since his passing. It’s just so unfair. So many people he wanted to help, so many goals he wanted to achieve. The fact he never made it to his 20th birthday. It’s all too much to accept for someone who struggled for so long but still made it his mission to be there for others. His loss has truly left a hole in so many peoples hearts. Thank you for keeping his memory alive and being there for him. You’re the definition of a great friend. I hope Cooper’s story continues to be told and shared. And I hope his sweet soul has found the peace he’s wanted for so long 🕊

I want to give Vinnie a big hug he deserves everything good in this whole universe.

Aww I’m crying😢 this past year I was a big fan of Jaden and nessa. I could really relate to their struggles and I also loved their relationship. Through them I saw cooper. I didn’t follow him too closely but I did watch his tik toks and he made me smile. I would just scroll through his account. I remember sending my friend a video of cooper from like last month and telling her how I loved his talking voice. The one thing I did learn about cooper last year was that he was a recovering addict. I really gravitated towards that bc my brother and sister have been addicts for 9 years non stop. It’s been so incredibly difficult and they haven’t tried getting sober. The one thing I admired about cooper is how he did push himself to get and stay sober. I always felt incredibly proud of him. He’s always just been some body who I wished I was friends with. The day I found out it just broke my heart. It was something I had feared would happen but never actually thought it would. I just feared it bc of my own life and how I’ve seen addiction. I’m not making any assumptions on how he died tho. It just it’s broken my heart. I watched ur podcast with cooper yesterday and I just sobbed through it. I haven’t been able to get it off my mind. The more I learn about cooper after his passing the more I love him and the more it hurts. He was such a sweet soul and this shit just sucks. I also love jadens song tell me about tmr that he made about cooper. I always related it to my siblings and now it just holds so much more weight. It means even more to me. Im sending so much love to everybody grieving cooper right now and I hope one day his dream of opening up a rehab comes true. 🕊❤️ I’m also so glad cooper had somewhere to share his story and somewhere he felt comfortable.

damn that was a tough intro to get through. could really see the pain on you brettie. cooper was such a nice guy. i remember being there that day for the podcast and i couldn't believe his story. i was on the couch in the other room like holy shit this guy has really been through a lot for such a young person but the energy he put out was the exact opposite of his pain. he was always so nice and kind every time i saw him and we can't forget him carrying us in fortnite.

I had rewatched the episode about cooper & sab the day before finding out along with the rest of the world about cooper which was so heartbreaking but during the podcast you could really see that cooper was so happy to be in the presence of brett and todd and you could see the genuine friendship starting to form right before your eyes and that was something I loved and it was really amazing to see as a viewer of. You guys really live up to “good boys” name. +Brett you couldn’t have made a better tribute to cooper, absolutely beautiful and so well said. RIP cooper 🕊 love the good boys the more & more I watch !👬🏻

I am very glad you gave Cooper the opportunity to speak. He was a person was really struggling. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about him & feeling like he still had so much to Share. RIP Cooper.

No amount of apologies can make up for the loss of someone as amazing as Cooper): he was such a beautiful soul

Brett so much love for you. Thanks for sharing your personal emotions with us. Cooper loves you- thank you for the juice song and just sharing a glimpse of you and coops friendship.

Thank you Brett for opening up at the start and giving such an amazing tribute to Cooper. Love you bro, Coop is watching over you🤍

I don’t tend to comment on videos, but I just wanted to mention what a beautiful intro that was. I’m so very sorry for your loss. 🤍

"I really needed a little brother and I think I had found that" its hurting so much

Such a beautiful intro, Cooper really deserved that. Thankyou both for being such amazing hosts while he was on your pod, thankyou for listening, letting him speak and genuinely caring for what he was speaking about. Huge respect

thank you for doing the interview w sab and cooper🤍 his memory lives on forever! thank you for sharing your experience with getting to know cooper, we love you

you are so blessed brett to have been able to have met someone as great as cooper I wish u could’ve. godspeed.

ily brett !!!! sorry 4 ur loss hope ur doing okay. ur podcast is what made me a fan of cooper so thank u for that . rip cooper 💙

thank you for doing this introduction about coop, I'm so sorry for your loss

So so so so sorry for your loss, and a huge loss to so many. I don’t really have words but I’m grateful he had a platform, the podcast being one of them, to talk about mental health and sobriety but also have a good time. Love you both wish there was something I could do. Very well said Brett

This definitely brought me to tears! I think this message through this podcast is great! Reach out to anyone you think may be struggling! My oldest brother took his life on my 13th birthday and our family was never the same! Mental health is a subject people don’t always like to talk about but it’s soooo needed!!! Blessings to you Bret and Todd. And to coopers family, friends and all his fans! May he be at peace now🙏🏻 gone too soon!! Check on your friends & family!

This is an amazing pod. I didn’t watch cooper too much, but enough that his death has brought tears to my eyes.

Absolutely sobbing at the first part, I can’t believe it happened

this pod was awesome, really loved your tribute to coop as well. 💗

I wanna take this opportunity to say check on your friends. I worry about Scotty. I regret not saying anything even though I noticed Cooper spiraling. I'm just a fangirl didnt think anyone would pay attention to me.

Everyone deserves big brothers like Brett and Todd

💙💙💙💙💙💙

Junj 👌

Unrelated but Jesus loves you Have an amazing day

vinnie is a victim fr i feel bad

Boof should just shave his head at this point

So I’ve been aware of Toddy for years now and I’m not trying to be mean when I say this but just from this episode alone I can tell podcasting isn’t for him. And it’s unfortunately for the same reason other forms of content or creating he’s tried in the past weren’t really for him either. He doesn’t really have that *thing* that makes ppl want to engage. I do really want him to find his niche but at this point I have no clue what it could be

💜
