DVD Goblin-tary: The !!!SHOCKING!!! Evolution of Bret Weinstein

Ayyyyy what's going on gang? Here with another Gobisode of the Chill Goblin GVD Goblin-tary Club (really stretching the limit of what syllables can be replaced with "gob". Gob?) For this one, I got a little tipsy off three beers and may have revealed some industry secrets! Just remember the #1 rule: What happens on Chill Goblin's Patreon STAYS on Chill Goblin's Patreon.

In other Goblin news, the magnum opus that I've been working on for over a year now is finally coming together, only ...

Chill Goblin does a VERTIGO SHOT: Palingenetic Featurette

For a while now I've been working on a project called "PALINGENETIC: A horror essay." Originally I intended to have it out for Halloween 2023 but realized I'd accidentally decided to make a feature length animated film by myself. It ended up taking slightly longer than I had planned, but I'm making a lot of progress and will hopefully be able to release it in October 2024 instead!

This video is absolutely guaranteed to give you no confidence at all that I can keep to that schedule. ...

POLL: Which of these Chill Goblin logos is the best?

Help me pick a new logo! (Poll ends tuesday July 23 2024 at 5:52pm SHARP)

Had this idea for a Goblin-shaped logo and couldn't stop myself from "iterating" on it. I've narrowed it down to these four options. You'll notice they're all kinda similar, but also? They couldn't be more different.

Each one has a colour and a B&W version, so whichever option I go with, I can use either version...

Capital 4 Goblins, Episode 3: "Caterpie -> Metapod -> Caterpie"

FINALLY, the long-awaited EPISODE 3 of my Karl Marx reading series "Capital 4 Goblins" is here. Check it out above.

In this one, I dive into what's widely considered the worst, most boring chapter of Capital and desperately try to make it interesting and funny. GASP! At the sight of how dirty my edition of Capital is. CHORTLE! With glee when you hear Marx's epic "Sir Williams of Kars" diss at John Stuart Mill. THRILL! At the evidence that Chill Goblin has actually gotten his act togeth...

Dubstep DJ Art

DID YOU KNOW that all $10+ Chill Goblin patrons are entitled to a digital drawing by the goblin himself?

If you're in the Dubstep DJ tier but haven't received a custom drawing, please get in my DMs and let me know! Some people get me to interpret their username, some want a portrait of themselves or a pet, to draw their OC or DND character, and some people have a weirdly specific request tha...

NEW VIDEO! PATRONS GET IT FIRST: The Insane True(?) Story of Flamin' Hot Cheetos' Invention

New video!

This video was meant to be released on 4/20. Unfortunately, due to me being the kind of person who even wanted to make a 4/20 video, I needed a few extra weeks to get it totally done.

A couple months ago I fell into the rabbit hole that is the disputed origin story of Flamin' Hot Cheetos. One side has books, a movie, and a speaking career based off their story. The other side has publicly available evidence and nothing to gain by lying.

It's confusing I know, ...

DVD Goblin-tary: Fascism & Colonialism, BFFs <3

Got a new Goblin-tary video for you! I think of my "Fascism/Colonialism" essay as the first modern Chill Goblin video. I felt like I had a point to make. Did I make it well? Less well than I remembered! But the ending is pretty good I think

Spent a ridiculous amount of time trying out what I figured would be a cool effect: I made the light in the room flicker as if the TV was really there in the space! Look out for that time consuming but barely noticeable change that does not improve ...

Capital 4 Goblins episode 2: "Dialectical Sorcery"

Here it is, the second instalment of my patron exclusive video series about Karl Marx's "Capital: Volume 1." This episode includes my thought on the infamously brutal to get through "20 rolls of linen = one coat" section. SPOILER ALERT: I thought it was pretty boring.

Check out the "Path of Argument" document I've attached here, stolen from David Harvey's podcast. I found it really helpful to understand what Marx is trying to do.

PATRONS GET IT FIRST! The long-awaited Chill Goblin take on the CHRIS ROCK OSCARS SLAP

This video has been in the works for a LONG time- since March 2023, so we're just under the one year mark!- and I'm excited and frankly relieved to finally be able to share it!

Because of all the copyrighted content, I'm not able to post it on YouTube just yet- I'm disputing Netflix right now which might take up to a month (LMAO) so please enjoy it in full uploaded directly to Patreon. Never done that before... Let's find out if Patreon is a decent video platform together!

I had...

"Capital 4 Goblins" video series- episode ONE

Hey gang, I've done something drastic: started reading Marx's Capital.

Figured it would be fun to create some content out of it. I'm trying to make this accessible to everyone, whether you've read Capital (or any Marx) or you're totally new to these ideas! It's like those "for dummies" books but it's for goblins. And it's a video series, not a book. The more I think about it, the less it is like the "for dummies" thing. Anyway...

For those poor souls who want to read this annoyi...

BEHIND THE SCENES SNEAK PEEK at Chill Goblin's new video

Hey gang, thanks for your patience and support while I work to complete the next video. I think it's going to be really good, I'm just not sure how much longer it's going to take.

Every video I make, I tell myself I'm going to make the next one easier, and this time I went and wrote a full length animated horror movie. It was supposed to be my "halloween special" but that might not be possible if time works the way I think it does.

In any case, sorry to keep you all waiting- wan...

Q Anon video DIRECTOR'S COMMENTARY

Went back and watched a video I haven't watched in a long time for you guys. I've always thought of this video as one that was maybe not entirely successful, and I'm not JUST talking about the volume being so low most of the comments were just people saying they couldn't hear me.
Well, I went ahead and boosted the volume with a performance-enhancing chrome extension, and I gave this old vidja essay another watch. And you know what? It was better than I remembered it being! Does that mean i...

PATRONS GET IT FIRST! Oliver Anthony video

Here's an early Patron version of my next video! It's about Oliver Anthony and his song "Rich Men North of Richmond"- but it's also not REALLY about those things. You'll see. Featuring my new "GOBLINIFICATION" art style, let me know what you think of it. I like it so far? It's cute and it helped me do less thinking in the drawing process which can sometimes hold me back.

Finishing this essay was a real race against time to get it done while he was still relevant, a race which I may not...

More Goblins for ya…

Thanks so much for your feedback on my new goblin-ified style! Glad you guys seem to like em so far. I’m having fun with it too. Just completed this picture with a whole bunch more goblins hanging out at a coal mine company town. Sepia-toned for your enjoyment.

This is all a single image, full picture is the full view and the rest are details. I used a 4x higher resolution canvas than normal, plan is to zoom in and move around the canvas, kind of like the conspiracy board in my JFK vi...

What do you think of these goblins?

Hey gang, I've been selling my soul creating content all day overtime hours for *ahem* anyway... just wanted to share some of the art I've been making for the next video.

I'm going in a very "goblin'd out" direction this time. I had a bit of an epiphany during a psychedelic trip recently that it takes me way too long to make videos, so maybe if I make my art style more simple and more consistent I can REALLY speed up my art process without sacrificing quality.

So here's what I've...

PATRONS GET IT FIRST! (Video preview)

Working on a video that I intended to be a quick n easy lil thing, but I've just finished up editing (haven't done the animations yet) and it's gonna be over an hour. I dunno what's wrong with me!

I wanted to share a clip with the goblin gang in the meantime, hope you like it! Full video should be ready very soon since I want to strike while this dude is still relevant.

If you're confused, I'm making fun of this guy:

A Closer Look at Seth Meyers

So I've been working on a long, in-depth analysis of the recent Chris Rock Netflix comedy special "Selective Outrage" for a while now. It's essentially finished at this point, a few final touches aside. Unfortunately, I've decided to hold off on posting it.

There's currently a strike going on against Netflix and numerous other companies, and according to the SAG-AFTRA union website, it could be considered crossing the picket line for me to post any content about Netflix properties. 2023-08-22 18:46:09 +0000 UTC View Post

I got to go on the Majority Report!

Hey gang! New video is being edited right now and should be up shortly, but I wanted to give you guys some content before then:

Something pretty cool I did recently was go on the Majority Report to hang out with Emma and Matt for a bit. TMR is a leftist podcast/ youtube channel I've been watching since I think 2017 or so, and has been a major factor in my political evolution, so I was really excited to be invited on. I even wore my best "The Michael Brooks Show" shirt for the occasion....

Can A.I. learn to write jokes? L.E.G. #1

I'm still working on the next REAL Chill Goblin video (should be out later this month) and since it's taking me so long, I wanted to put out something for my patrons to enjoy in the meantime.

The big video I'm working on goes into joke writing in an extreme comedy-nerd way. I started to go into a tangent on A.I. written jokes that had nothing to do with my main video. I cut that part but I still thought it was kind of interesting, so I did this.

I made this video front to back in...

New theme song, Chill Goblin 2.0 in full effect

It's the same three guitar strums but I souped it up and completely changed the animation. Perfect for the people who liked the old Chill Goblin theme song, but wondered if it might be better if there were too many things going on?

DVD Goblin-tary

Hey Goblin Gang!

Thanks for all so much for your patience and continued support! I've been away for a bit but I'm back now and I'm going to do my best to up my game here. Today I've got a DVD-style commentary video on what I sometimes think of as my first "good" video, "Top 10 ZANIEST CIA Blunders!!!"

You'll notice I redid the background I use for these commentary videos, I feel like it looks pretty good!
