"This is going to sound really weird..." *proceeds to explain the most Brennan Thing he could possibly have said*

A week ago I learned that Brennan and I are the same age, and that made me feel terrible; I'm currently unemployed, living with my parents and feeling like I didn't accomplish anything. Watching this interview really put on perspective that him and I have had really different lifes, with different challenges and opportunities, and one) he got were he is because he had the support and chances I never had (not that he didn't work hard for it, he obviously did) and two) Things can change and all the learnings and knowledge I have could help me tomorrow, if I don't give up.

This explains so much lol

BLM sucks

This is how I found out he's a dad???

“will smith of shark tale fame” got a chuckle outta me

ooooooh this is why hes like this, he was raised like marcus aurelius

I had one company ask me for my diploma. I was just like, I graduated 12 years ago I have 0 idea where it’s at nor do I care 😂

I hire people all the time. A GPA tells me quickly whether you could be bothered to do the little things in school growing up. Because that’s what it ultimately is with the exception of a 3.8 or something like that. Did you spend the time you were asked to on most assignments and tasks for no other reason than it was requested of you? That’s the indicator I use it for if I do end up seeing it.

Congratulations on achieving your dream of being a Dad!

I can't remember the last 1h interview I listened to that was this memorable. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

Hi study hall.

Bennan is a dad! Yay so happy for him

This is something you literally CAN'T do in my country. You can't attend high school until you are at least 14 years old and you can't attend collage/uni unless you've got your highschool diploma.... And the age limits go for homeschooled kids too (I am also pretty sure there are some mandatory years you HAVE TO attend school because of ✨ socialization ✨ and social skills, kindergarten is mandatory for example) So... Can someone simply explain how is this possible? Are there "just" some exams you have to take and that's it? No other rules?

I feel like most employers don't value the skills that organizing regular D&D games takes. Not only public speaking, presentation skills, improvisation and communication skills but you more importantly have to be able to manage lining up schedules and try and get the best out of a group of very different people. Especially if you are doing any public DMing for rotating groups of people like Adventurer's League or as a DM for your local game store to help teach new people.

I love them so much

Something tells me the moment at 30:42 was hard earned by Hank in therapy over the last year. Just a suspicion…

I need someone to upload the full episode of Brennan being on who wants to be a millionaire

Why would his parents even allow them to get PHILOSOPHY MAJORS?!?!

I want brennan to mentor me on how to parent so that I can raise my beautiful kids to be better people.

help me plz i m going to study inter diciplanary studies in biological sciences and physical sciences how i can findout subjects , and course outlines

This was such a fantastic talk between two people who are so wonderful and inspiring. Some people are truly put in this world to teach, inspire, and create a community. And, I can't imagine a more worthy, beautiful cause to dedicate your life to.

I think Brennan should go on Last Meals ❤

I don’t have a GED either but I’m much less impressive 😂 but fr he’s amazing and I’m not surprised his story is so unique ❤

IT ALL MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

-34:14 It’s heartbreaking that people have this experience, that they feel like they’re “too much” or their personality is a “burden” on those around them. He’s clearly beloved by fans and his friends/family, but the fact that’s still a thought in the back of his head makes me so sad. Intense amounts of respect for him.

why does this makes so much sense

This has been my personal experience as a 26 year old who back in school. A good reason to have a good GPA is scholarships and Grants. They also help build connections within school to the right people who do look at GPAs, especially in STEM programs.

I had never seen/met someone who had been homeschooled that wasn’t socially awkward, so I didn’t peg him as a homeschooler, but this actually makes sense in other ways 😂 Very cool though and kudos to him!

I would say that likely has a lot to do with how wholesome he comes across, public highschool is a literal hellscape of cliques, bullies, and hormones for most.

Brennen going to college at 14 as a philosophy major makes perfect sense

What's this guy's IQ

We need a BDG episode.

“I was 15 and became a partner at a company” I think yeah right that utter nonsense who’d give a child that “the owner were 21” ooooooooooh. That actually tracks”

It’s a sad moment in your career when you no longer list school projects/achievements on your resume

Very good to know!

video making me go to sleep soon

His mother is a freaking hero.

Picks one of the most useless degrees in college. 😂

New Brennan lore unlocked

He's sheldon with more emotions 😂

Almost got me crying at work Brennan... Almost ratted me out for watching KZbin on the clock, lol

Before he mentioned his brother, I thought Brennan was using the royal „We“ 😂

Yup, never been asked. It's wild.
