I hate it when people put click bait titles like “My BRUTALLY honest review”…8/10. I like Dreamcast Guy generally, but he’s always guilty of that click bait shit.

2024-05-09 14:04:25 +0000 UTCOh man, the letter story... Despite my better knowing, in my 20s I fell in love with a girl that lived across the globe when traveling. And when we finally decided to start a life together I had to prove to immigration services we had a legit relationship... so I just printed out about a 100 e-mails we had sent to each other. I made sure I left out the spiciest ones, but I really didn't care as I didn't know these government officials and they didn't know me lol. Still, a strange idea that people who your writing was never intended for have read your most intimate thoughts.

2024-04-29 19:44:14 +0000 UTCHey y'know I didn't even knew it came out then since it was a book I picked up second hand much after, you'd have no idea reading the book that it was in such proximity to that from reading is as there's no mention of it at all really from what I remember. Maybe the straightforward answer would be that it didn't influence the book but maybe in its own way that was Poe's conscious choice to respond to an event like that with a book like this too, who knows? I was curious if he'd ever written about it at all, and found this piece of writing where he does, this is scant though https://www.thesunmagazine.org/issues/395/cristinaland I didn't know that about My Chemical Romance either. Back in my teenage years I always thought that My Chemical Romance were a good band from the big tracks they did that were everywhere but with them having a more obvious punk/rock flavour to their sound I thought of them at the time as being something more like Greenday than an emo band which is probably why I never really got into them back in the day.

2024-04-29 19:41:11 +0000 UTCThank you very much Neon!! I'm feeling excited and optimistic but it'll be a crazy amount of work for sure. I think it's what i need to do though :-)
The Electric Underground
2024-04-29 14:52:17 +0000 UTCI haven't read the book, I just looked it up though and it looks interesting. I notice that it was written in 2002, which was a really interesting time in writing and American Identity cuz it was right after 9/11 and everything. I wonder how much the attack might have influenced the book. Interesting fact: the band my chemical romance's first song and formation was inspired by the attack and the anxiety it caused.

2024-04-29 14:51:05 +0000 UTCLOL imagine years later she keeps the letters and comes across them and completely forgetting their context, that would be really interesting ha. I do wonder what they would read like to me now if I were able to see them again. I'd probably find it sort of a time capsule for my youth at this point, like old yearbook signatures.
The Electric Underground
2024-04-29 14:48:14 +0000 UTCHa yes, I promised I had another embarrassing story prepared for the episode :-) It might be hard to top in the next ep though ha.

2024-04-29 14:46:15 +0000 UTCYeah a reminder to subscribe is always smart to include and there's no reason to make it into a big thing ha. Also I agree on the constant jokes a lot of youtubers do. It's great and fun when the jokes of the vids are natural to the writing when the arise, but if it's constant, especially in sections that are not funny to begin with, then the jokes become really forced and obnoxious.
The Electric Underground
2024-04-29 14:43:44 +0000 UTCGreat to hear! You have to place a bet on yourself and go for it. The way my brain is built I just have to do things myself and explore whatever I'm interested in. I go beast mode when I'm learning and making things that interest me. I made that decision when I was 26 and have been solo ever since. Tons of challenges and rough times but I have no regrets. It takes a certain frame of mind but you definitely seem like the type built for it. Excited to see what you have in store.

2024-04-27 22:28:54 +0000 UTCOver these podcasts mark you’ve told a whole bunch of really interesting stories about some of the stuff that’s happened to you. Have you ever read Poe Ballantine’s things I like about America? He’s one of my favourite American novelists, some of the way you speak about things remind me of his books a bit, I could well see you writing a book not a million miles away from that one day

2024-04-27 00:27:08 +0000 UTCSome years later, Marks' ex gf gets Alzheimer's and someone reads the letters.....END SCENE!! The why...reminds me of that scene in ''Hitch'' there's a flashback with Will Smith being dumped and not letting it go and asking ''why why'' there's the why :P

2024-04-25 10:43:44 +0000 UTCAh yes I see kind of a pseudo academic keen on abstract pursuits over run of the mill affairs. Terminology used by the French to describe the colourful Romani Gypsy folk perceived to be from Bohemia. I must look into the history of this thing and the way gentlemen of leisure became connected with it. Lots of controversy surrounding aristocrats and the occult, I'm sure. Just my forte.

2024-04-23 23:02:01 +0000 UTCTo me your channel is a creative philosophy channel and video games just happen to be the medium or canvas. I grew up as a hardcore gamer but mostly don’t have time to play them anymore. But the way you approach the topic branches out and is relative to art and critique in general and that is the reason why I watch your channel. My background of understanding what is artistically pure in the realm of video games is the reason why I am able to relate to your opinions and determine that they are on point. So I can see how this Carries over to the discussion on art in general and is beneficial to the overall dynamic and conversation of what is happening in the world today.

2024-04-23 22:02:57 +0000 UTCWhat a beast of an episode. Just when I thought it was about to wrap up, that's when the main topic started The promised embarrassing story did not disappoint either. The twist about the mother reading those letters was beautiful in truly the worst kind of way. I once sent a cringy message that was intended for my girlfriend to the wrong person, so this has to be that feeling but on a whole different level.

2024-04-23 20:01:39 +0000 UTCI also find the whole acting above asking for interaction thing kind of annoying and I actually like when creators ask for them. I typically want to support their channel and very often just forget. I think I was like 2 or three weeks into bingeing your videos before I realized I hadn’t even subscribed yet. I think you’ve started to ask more in your more recent videos though which is good. My biggest pet peeve on YouTube is how most creators feel the need to constantly inject humor into their videos. It’s seems like they think people will click off of the video if they don’t have a joke every 20 seconds. Good humor takes a lot of charisma, comedic timing and ya know, a good sense of humor and this isn’t the kind of thing someone can force. Obviously I want people to prioritize making what they want to make that’s just my selfish preference haha

2024-04-23 17:05:21 +0000 UTCOh yeah my early 20s were such a formative time in my life. I think it s a good time in a dude's life to be introspective and explore deeper ideas. Because as you get older this more open minded outlook starts to get crowded out by day to day responsibility.
The Electric Underground
2024-04-23 15:40:32 +0000 UTCOh yes and it s the worst ha.
The Electric Underground
2024-04-23 15:37:06 +0000 UTCYeah exactly! And with the nuance of trying to make the commercial work also as engaging as possible
The Electric Underground
2024-04-23 15:36:39 +0000 UTCHa yeah I don't mean anything crazy, just a person more interested in artistic pursuit than traditionally successful career pretty much
The Electric Underground
2024-04-23 15:35:12 +0000 UTCAnother Fuego podcast! The Gf story was hilarious. But as embarrassing as it may be to share, what that story did more, was demonstrate what a solid dude you were. Also when you were discussing your nightly routine, I swear man it sounded like you were describing my life right now as a 24 years old. I just finished cormac’s blood meridian, currently on my fourth playthrough of Viewtiful Joe, I signed up to the gym a week ago and literally have been watching a slew of Akira kurosawa and ingmar bergman films. I don’t have a gf story, but funny enough I did witness a weed transaction in the locker room. Not as hadcore as what was happening in your gym, but there’s that I guess.

2024-04-23 15:12:22 +0000 UTCFor me it wasn’t Yugioh dueling club, but reading EGM on the bus and at school. Being into gaming in the 90s like that was completely uncool.
