Please check out my thumbnail artist's twitter: twitter.com/thigikna Part Two on Monday, promise. It's already filmed and partially edited. Not gonna do the whole book review thing yet (that'll be part two) but here's what I read for this video: Crassus by Peter Stothard Rome's Wars in Parthia by Rose Mary Sheldon Rome & Parthia: Empires at War by Gareth C. Sampson Life of Crassus by Plutarch
This feels like witnessing history. I don't mean Rome and Persia, I'm talking about a young creative mind who's going to go very, very far if he keeps developing this brand of madness.
EXACTLY!!! That's what we're here for, to witness a mind flourish. To witness him take apart the past ('for no reason') and not even need to juxtapose it to our modern climate is phenomenal. and he loves Fembussy so bless up!!
Cobbler has 356K subscribers, his mother takes up 2.5% of said subscribers, so we can confidently say that Cobblers mother has the same weight as 8900 people. the average person in the US weighs around 150 lbs, making Cobblers mother an extraordinary 1,335,000lbs. Smash
@@memeboi6017 they dont need to be and the ruling elite of the Parthians were actual from Persus and were Persians who were placed to rule the Parthian provinces under the Achaemenids, hence why they claimed Persian Achaemenid lineage.
I discovered Cobbler a couple days ago and ever since I’ve been studying him. This is the first upload I’ve been able to experience and I wonder if I’ll pass the cobbler test. Edit: he is drinking chalk water now
Honestly this series has inspired me to take a much deeper dive into Roman and Greek history. I’m going to be taking Ancient Greek and Roman Studies in university. I will either see you in 4 years in a museum, or a Starbucks
@@PejmanMan I'm interested in Persian history and culture too. I'm fascinated about tribes in the mountains of Asia, As well as ancient Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Indochinese, Indian, North American tribes and other cultures in Europe outside of Greece and Rome. Not everything is racism or a euromindset, sometimes people just like other topics more than others.
Sir Cobbler, gradually, becoming that crazy uncle who might teach your kids some weird ass history if they'll hang out with him for too long. They also might start hating the feds. But at least they'll learn how to hunt and skin a deer. And possibly a wendigo. Who is disguised as a fed.
Your skits where the Romans are talking to other people are such good characterizations of the way Roman arrogance works. I especially liked the "Wait... are you Hannibal?" bit.
I can't decide if Cobbler is drifting further into unhinged madness or is just gradually revealing his real self :D Really appreciate your content man, thank you for making these great videos on history!
Your time as a History Teacher has come, Brother. You have the talent, you have the library (Internet), and you have the students (again, the Internet). I wish I had a history teacher like you when I was in school. It would have made things much more enjoyable and memorable. Thanks, can't wait for Monday!
Teaching history like its video game lore make it's so interesting. You're videos are so freaking fun, interesting, and informative. Excited for monday!
First five minutes of the video absolutely is one of the intros to ever be Especially since it was ended off with a truly very musical performance, I am in tears for it undoubtedly did
Thank you dessert of British origin which is also regularly made throughout the United States of American, in this case off the variety made using the drupe fruit (or stone fruit) commonly known as peach, for delivering such content through the interconnected internet and showing it to me through the display on this device which can be referred to as a “beat up crappy old iPad”
So how many parts to this series are you going to make? I was under the impression it would be three: Barbarians & Carthage, Greece, and Egypt. But now you've come up with two more -- Israel and Persia -- just out of nowhere. So what does your road map for the Rome series actually look like?
I feel like at this point, we're watching Cobbler mostly if not completely lose his mind while talking about things he's interested in, and I, for one, am certainly here for it all the way
You have to talk about the parthian Envoys response to Crassus at Carrhae: Asked by the Parthian ambassador the reason for this unprovoked war, Crassus boasted that he would tell him in Seleucia, the western capital of the empire, to which the envoy "burst out laughing and said, pointing to the palm of his upturned hand: 'O Crassus, hair will grow there before thou shalt see Seleucia'" The envoys line is still an idiom/phrase used in modern persian to this day!!!
Glorious day, yet a sad one too. Awesome because my DJ peach cobbler video addiction is fullfilled with a new video. Sad because when im finished, i shall return to that never place that engulfs my spirit chest, of no more DJ peach cobbler videos. I rest now with the endless abyss, stuntin like my daddy.
I hope there'll be a sequel on the Sassanian Empire. I think its one of the most interesting Empires and time period around but it doesnt really get talked about very often.
Dr. Cobb I cannot express to you how much I enjoy your lectures. Your telling and analyzation of historical events told with crude humor has been incredibly valuable to my education. I can’t wait for the next class!
I watched this video yesterday, slept a full 11 hours and STILL came back to comment how fucking amazing the line "This is a tale of two empires, the border which they shared, and the world they couldn't" is. It has replayed in my mind since then.
Ik this is an old video, but I recently came across DJ's content so it's new to me lmao. Anyway, everyone commenting on how he's the "unhinged uncle" is absolutely hilarious to me because he reminded me of my Uncle who was indeed unhinged and liked talking about history. It's also very comforting because of this, my uncle was the closest thing I had to a dad so DJ's content makes me genuinely feel like my uncle is still around
Hollo cobbler I live in Shiraz which is about two hours away from "Persepolis", Just thought it would be fun for you to know that you have some subscribers from here too... Good video
Looking at the comments, I see so many men and women of culture, philosophers each and everyone of you. Always looking for deeper insight and the true meaning of the world we live in. We must protect this man DJ Peach Cobbler, I need more content.
When DJ commits whatever atrocious act that will lead to multiple laws being named after him, these videos will be a cold, hard lesson for the world at large. Because when he ground up chalk and turned it into a drink, we stood by and did nothing.
Imagine clicking on a historically intriguing looking video, to be met with a grown man eating, and then chugging literal chalk. This is my new favorite channel.
I watch lots of historical youtube videos, and yours are some of the most entertaining and informative. And I can't say I expected to say that to a channel I originally subbed to for videogame content...
I have never been so horrified and fascinated at the same time as when this man started talking about complex relationships between ancient cultures while drinking a chalk smoothie
Cobbler, I can not stress enough how much I cherish your history videos. They're actually fucking amazing. I love your other videos but god if these ain't my favourites.
I find myself constantly in a paradox. I want to share DJ Peach Cobbler, but he has issues that make him hard to recommend. However, if it weren’t for the issues that make him hard to recommend, I’m not sure I’d want to recommend him either. The insanity is what makes him great.
Mr cobbler, I have watched every video you have uploaded and this is by far the best, it is incredible how the videos just keep getting better the more unhinged you become
14:57 oh man, this king of the hill spoof, thank you, this made my day. I want to cry of laughter but i'm at work so it just looks like i'm crying, oof, wholesome meme.
think of chalk as a powdered paint. like water color. you can smear it on a slate cuz it's rough, but you can also get it wet and wipe it away, but if you write on a wet surface, it pretty much turns into paint, you have to let the slate dry before you write on it unless you want it to stay forever, but you can always wash and scrub it off.
