Devil and Thomas Chan Commentary (+ Update)
Added 2024-01-31 04:27:42 +0000 UTCNOTE: I sometimes get asked why this isn't on YT Anymore. It was taken down due to a copyright claim from Maclean's Magazine on a photo of Chan. It's still on Patreon if you scroll down :)

Another Creator Commentary to tie you over! I thought this one came out pretty good - I think I'm getting better at them!
Hit me up in DMs if you have issues with the player.
FULL UPDATE AT 54:18
The Joel Guy Jr vid shouldn't be too far off - I got a little stuck in the writing phase because it's an interesting case where we don't actually get alot of footage of the perp himself - barely any of him speaking. I've basically cracked it now though and just need to do the last 3rd or so of the script. From there it shouldn't be too much of a production intensive one, so I'm thinking mid Feb should be pretty achievable.
Apologies for the wait - Xmas break always skews things a bit, but we'll be back in business soon! Thanks so much as always for your patience and support :)

I hereby deduct 5 respect points for taking “higher dimensional elves” seriously. This hurts me more than it hurts you.

2024-02-17 02:19:46 +0000 UTCI've never actually seen this episode somehow so was a welcome surprise to be able to go and watch that and then come back for the commentary!

2024-02-08 14:04:31 +0000 UTCIn my experience, antidepressants negate the effect of 'shrooms and LSD.

2024-02-02 21:55:33 +0000 UTCAbsolutely. I am always looking for new music, can never get enough. So since this video, I've always been wondering if you'd show more great music. Especially from New Zealand or Australia, since I have a major gap in music from part of the world. Keep up the fantastic work. This is my place for true crime, and your phenomonal growth as a creator has been amazing to watch.

2024-02-01 12:53:32 +0000 UTCOne of the better arguments for making the time to get that vid re-uploadable would be introducing more people to that band.

2024-02-01 07:16:47 +0000 UTCThis video--interesting as it is--will forever be the video where I discovered Ingrid and The Ministers. I love the entire discography. The second album comes as quite a shock when you've listened to the first (which includes Pepper'n'Sand from the video). I wondered if you'd mention the track, and boy did you ever. Okay, now time to watch the rest of the video.

2024-01-31 19:57:35 +0000 UTCI’m sure your take on Joel Guy will be fantastic. I think the lack of video of him actually talking or being human makes the case that much more interesting. Such horrific acts committed by a pasty, arrogant blob, who never showed any remorse or any human emotion, makes the case, for me, fascinating.

2024-01-31 10:55:33 +0000 UTCI know people who have similar positive experiences. And while I'm no stranger to occasional recreational use of stimulants in the past, I've never dared taking drug that could make me hallucinate... Has to do with my experience with night terrors and my (justified or not) worry I'd be stuck in a long ass night terror if I take such a drug.

2024-01-31 09:59:33 +0000 UTCDeep! I don't know if I've ever heard someone say shrooms feel stronger than LSD on a pound for pound basis. I guess with shrooms there are trickier variables with it being an organic product. certain doses effect different eco systems in different ways, and maybe there are differences between strains. Not really sure about the science of it!

2024-01-31 09:53:57 +0000 UTCI had to go listen to the Ingrid & the Ministers track before I could continue with the commentary :). Good one!

2024-01-31 09:52:54 +0000 UTCI once dabbled in the cultivation of psilocybin mushrooms, and my first trip was rather life-changing. (If you haven’t experienced ego-death, you’re really missing out.) LSD is, for me, how you described shrooms. Except it lasts 12 hours, and I wanted to be done around hour 8. I’ve been on three shroom trips, and twice now I’ve gone into my trips with the intention of tackling a problem in my life. It’s been tremendously helpful in reducing my anxiety and depression. One of my ‘vision quests’ even gave me the idea to pursue my career in software development. Moral of the story: the hippies lost, and now we mostly take psychedelics to get ahead in our hunger-games-esque capitalistic hellscape.
