This one always makes me near tear up. You are literally seeing a man self-destruct and beg for help on stage. The fact that he was able to step away enough to survive after this is fantastic. Other people haven’t had that strength and left us too early as a result.

Awww, poor multimillionaire with a wildly successful comedy career and countless adoring fans. Let's all feel sorry for him, because unlike the rest of us, he's got REAL problems. 🙄

[@NeverDieAloneMusic]

During this tour Bo was having frequent panic attacks on stage. When his voice and hand was shaking towards the end, he was having one then. He walked away from stand up for a few years to pursue other ventures (acting & directing). He eventually decided he was "mentally stable" enough to go back on the road, but it was in January 2020, right before the pandemic. Which led to the masterpiece of "Inside".

[@gildedphoenix]

Waiting for Inside 2 of ICU now

[@KarlRoger]

The last yell as well, when you are aware he had a panic attack. Heartbreaking. Glad he is doing okay now

[@CadenzaKatie]

I love how Bo is both the antithesis AND the epitome of an entire generation's sense of humor. Millenial/early gen z humor is really defeatist. The entire thought process is "life sucks let's laugh" but rather than going fully nihilist, Bo uses his humor to make impactful points that lots of other people are afraid to talk about or they seem weak in a world that taught us that weakness is the worst thing we can feel. Yet another reason Bo is the GOAT

[@AllTheArtsy]

Millennial humor is the movement from modernism, post-modernism and post-postmodernism. Bo is not alone in this. Even Rick and Morty is post-postmodernist.

The name of this special was Make Happy. The part at the end where he says “I hope you’re happy” calls back to the line where he says “laugh as he attempts to give you what he can’t give himself.” He’s performing at the expense of his mental health to make others happy. A lot of people think the “I hope you’re happy” is followed by a silent “because I’m sure not.” A lot of people also think it’s a “I hope you’re happy with what you’ve done to me.”

[@holi117]

The clever (and sad) thing with Bo is, i think he means it in every iteration at once.

[@konvex69]

the "because im sure not" is either mistook or inspired by the line "i hope that you're happy, cause hes sure not" in his other song left brain, right brain but if i remember correctly that song is in his special "what" not in "make happy" but interesting perspective nonetheless.

[@nicheghosty3240]

A big part of why this was Bo's last performance for 5 years was because he had been having frequent panic attacks on stage. You can sometimes see it in some of his performances but Bo has said himself, that when he's rewatched performances where he remembers having a panic attack even he can't hardly tell, because he spends so much time memorizing the script that the performance is engrained in him to be perfect. A lot of the time it can be caught by how out of breath or shaky his voice sounds like at the end of this performance.

[@chandanv211]

My husband n I went to this show and were in tears at the end. When we got back go the car my husband said " I think he's done". We didn't think he would ever do another special or tour. You could just see the sadness.

[@avixs1543]

He was right... took 5 years before he made anything like this

[@LeslieAlbasto]

Wow!

[@kiarya7939]

Ok the most beautiful part of this is that you understood his metaphor with the burrito being “fame”. He’s spoken several times about it- the fact that the whole “I wouldn’t a got the *blank* if I knew it wouldn’t fit” is his processing everything being famous brought into his life. He’s saying “I wouldn’t have done this if I had known what it would do to my life”

[@milfordcubicle8511]

According to himself, in several interviews, he didn’t actually mean that as a metaphor. He was actually just singing about pringles and burritos. But hes so clever people automatically over analyze everything he says, cause you never know 😅

[@kiarya7939]

@@milfordcubicle8511 there are interviews where he explained yes that is exactly what he meant

[@TheQBandNY]

@@justinarnold7840 yup, at around 11:30 mark for those interested.

[@Nomad4D]

One thing to note about the ending: He says, "Handle this right, I'll handle this right, handle this right now" then drops the mic and walks off stage and doesn't perform again for 5 years to work on his mental health... literally right at that moment to go handle it correctly and no longer feed into what has been damaging to his mental health (performing).

[@bakuhakudraws5603]

That final line 'Thank you, goodnight, I hope you're happy', I believe he's stated in interviews since that it was both sincere and ironic, and the intent behind it would change each night on tour depending on his mental state: Some nights it was a completely genuine expression that he hoped the audience enjoyed his performance, others it was a bitter ironic statement like 'I hope you're happy with yourself after what you've done to me', and most nights it was a little of both.

[@stevenlomon]

I genuinely believe this to be one of the most defining performances of human creativity and genius ever performed, or at least of the 21st Century. Never fails to give me goosebumps and make me tear up. I wouldn't mind another 10 minutes of discussion and reflection at the end, there's so much to say about it and your insight and way of expressing your thoughts is so interesting and compelling

[@satoristeve]

Truth. (Or “no🧢” if you’re GenZ.) I hate that the word ‘genius’ gets thrown around so casually that it’s become watered down, because this is one of the rare instances it really applies. Bo is very likely one of the most brilliant people in entertainment today. Here you’ve got an accomplished rapper who talks about how great his lyrics are. If you watch reactions by sound engineers they’ll tell you how impressed they are with his sound engineering here. If you watch reactions by lighting designers they’ll tell you how impressed they are with his use of lighting here. Absolute genius.

[@ashleyhoughton8592]

Makes me well up the moment the strings come in.

[@SuperNovaKat64]

It's so heartbreaking to know that this affected him so much that after this performance he didn't do another performance for I think five years...

[@gramathy999]

and then...the funniest thing happened...

[@davidnettles4734]

This was his last performance before his 5 year hiatus. He had a full on anxiety attack on stage. Those yells at the end aren’t scripted

[@kodywatrous1323]

The first two were scripted the last one wasn’t. He’s talked about it in interviews

[@OrCarmi]

I listened to this song many times but I had never considered that the comedic section were a metaphor to the "serious" part. Thank you for this Knox!

[@KnoxHill]

Thank you for supporting and watching! Have a good day 🤟

[@moonflowerme6246]

The whole thing is a giant anxiety attack. The crumbs, the burrito falling apart..... All anxiety

[@Carolus_B]

@@moonflowerme6246 The Pringles can reads to me more as a metaphor for his addiction to the crowd. At first he was able to get enough of a reaction from the crowd to satisfy his need for their approval, but every time he needed a bit more of a reaction to get there, till he couldn't get enough anymore and had to tip over his performance to get a reaction from them, but it wasn't enough and it left him a mess. Him saying that he wanted a daughter so she could reach into the can, was him saying that he wanted a child, so that her incent love for her father could fill the hole created by his need for the crowd's approval. That's my read anyway.

[@_WeDontKnow_]

@@moonflowerme6246 Bo himself said in an interview the burrito thing was literally just talking about... a burrito lol. it wasnt a metaphor for anything deeper. everyone just read too far into it and made it up

[@aethilae]

⁠@@_WeDontKnow_i don't really know if i'd say it's "making it up" to acknowledge a parallel. death of the author is a concept for a reason really

[@avtomatt554]

This was very insightful, and I'm really impressed you picked up a lot of what he was putting down, because I certainly didn't the first time.I'm sure other people will fill you in on what happened with Bo after this performance, but if you pay attention you can kinda catch that he's having trouble during this. There are a couple frames (it's brief so I can't mark it) that it looks like he's shaking a bit, and that last scream he didn't wasn't planned, from what I've read. Bo plans his performances down to the breath, and the fact he gave that rough yell towards the end actually worried the producers of this show that he was about go off script. I think he left the stage so abruptly because he was in the middle of a panic attack. As a person with pretty bad anxiety/panic disorder, I would have RUN off that stage immediately. Props to him, absolutely legend.

[@macmurraymusic]

Just got to the end there he had a genuine panic attack on stage on that last part which was the shouting, that’s when he quit until INSIDE

[@milfordcubicle8511]

I’ve heard (not sure where though, might have been an interview) that most of the show in which he had panic attack was left out of the special. Don’t know which parts though, but allegedly his ”I hope your happy” sounded way different in that show.

[@metaphase-]

@@milfordcubicle8511 Both New York showings were spliced together - it's how they were able to achieve the continuity error joke earlier in the special.

[@donaldcase4716]

My God knox you are the best reactor on this app. Hands down. This is the best react to this art...and watching you catch it as it went was incredible. This was his last show before the hiatus he took...those yells were not planned, he was having a panic attack. Live performances were grating on him. Which is why the covid special was soooo good.

[@FpowTheDeadFool]

I always seen the Pringles, Gym and Chipotle lines as metaphors for 'Not fitting in'. Phenomenal! I've watched this rant more times than I can count and still get chills every damn time. This is the most raw "comedy" performance piece ever. No contest.

[@impossiblyindecisive]

This song has helped me through a lot of anxiety attacks. Expectations are rough, and this song perfectly encapsulates the dark humor and comradery that is needed. I am so happy that he is doing better. He has helped a lot of people through his art, and he deserves the same mental support.

[@rafaelsantti714]

As a dj that sometimes have panic attacks while playing, this hits home, I know this for years, since im a big Bo fan, but is always nice to see how you manage to really get things, I dont think I know another person reacting to stuff and actually gettin it, you are the only one, thanks for this.

[@keepperspective]

In one interview, Bo talked about how he loves multi dimensional performances not just words, but also sound design and lighting design. In this piece, you really feel all of that creative work on full display as the lighting is its own masterpiece along with the Brilliant metaphors.

[@Dubawnt]

It really hits towards the end when everyone starts cheering. Like that was the whole point. He laid himself bare in front of everyone, which if anything should be somber or sad, but everyone cheered and were entertained by his suffering.

[@Yotes_]

I don't think people were enjoying his suffering more of his performance and how beautiful it was, realizing how much courage it takes to do this is insane and understanding the lyrics... Rare I'd give a 10/10..

[@ryanheywood3165]

Most of the people there were cheering him for expressing his feelings, happy for him that he can go on stage and say these things

This was a brilliant reaction man. I’ve never seen anyone make the connections between his comedic metaphors and the more serious undertones as well as you did.

[@harmonicflow1899]

Holy shyt! Been waiting forever for this reaction from you! Ty!

[@TheJoner23]

First off, I’m amazed at how quickly you can pick up on the “thought of mind” someone is giving while performing. I wanted to bring the topic of emotions up for Bo’s show. He starts off with pringles and chipotle trying to have the entire crowd relate with each other in a light manner. When he drops the words “I think it’s time we break it down” at 10:20 in your video, he starts to give you a connection to himself talking about his actual problems. A part me me loves, hates, needs and fears you, bringing more emotions in.Then you brought up him giving too much of himself to you at the perfect time. Bringing the crowd together on a deeper feeling together. The overall feeling he is giving everyone is, what’s it worth giving people everything you have and always end up,every time, still having to keep looking for the same love and connection but at the same time can’t help yourself from wanting as much as you can eat.

[@daviantanner8878]

Because this performance is so great and so real, I watched several reaction videos today and I was really disappointed until I got to yours. I was shocked to see just how many people really don’t understand the depth of what’s happening here; even some psychotherapists on here. And not only that but you were able to on the spot, identify parallels and word play that I didn’t see even after several times of watching this. You have a brilliant mind just like Bo. One more thing, I’m an old millennial and I have never gotten super into social media and podcasts and subscribing for things.

I never knew how much of a flex it was that I can fit my hand in a Pringle can until this song. I’m so glad you noticed he was doing the voice effects himself. It adds so much to this performance

[@alelitre]

You catch so many references that other reactors miss. When you tied "can handle this" to the Pringles can and hand, I wondered if it was a stretch. But then I caught "you don't know the half of this" and his line about the "two radiuses" of a Pringles can not being enough hit me. I didn't pick up on the metaphors until you started calling them out.

[@theeternalsw0rd]

"You don't know the half of this" ties into the burrito scheme. "I wouldn't have got half of it if I knew it wouldn't fit" literally means the other half fit, which means it's under wraps or secret. In other words, we're only seeing what he couldn't hold inside without bursting. That to me is the importance of INSIDE. Even that title is a double. INSIDE his house. And INSIDE what he kept under wraps.

[@alelitre]

@@theeternalsw0rd That's so obvious I missed it. 😬

Been waiting for this for so long EDIT: I knew it. You get it. The first time I watched this, it made me question my choice to pursue success as a musician. I'm still playing, but now with a much greater consciousness of what it could to do to me over time; and a greater focus on performing as much for myself as the audience. That moment when he goes back to the Chipotle metaphor, it gets me emotional every single time. Like, now that we know what's going on, it's not funny anymore. He's just "doing his job" and ik how that feels from working shit jobs my whole life. So much love for that man, hope so much to meet him someday.

This one is always emotional due to him stepping away after this. Such a good reaction knox! Still waiting on that Wayne - Kant Nobody reaction!

Bo Burnham is truly a lyrical genius, he has time and time and time again proven himself to be one of the GREATEST comedians of all time, truly the GOAT of comedy

[@Truthseeker88888]

Great analysis. Picked up some doubles and metaphors I missed from watching Bo on my own 👍

[@alvatrous]

yeah the can handle this bit especially went over my head

[@yeshevishman]

​@@alvatrous i personally feel like that's a stretch, but art is subjective and transient. Even if Bo didn't intend that in his lyricism, Knox finding it is pretty cool.

[@mariejustme]

It’s another irony in life that the funniest people usually have the most issues themselves. It’s a mask they wear. I hope Bo is getting the help he needs. We’ve lost too many greats already. Another fantastic breakdown, Knox. Thanks!

I love that you're able to see thru something that at first degree is a throwaway burrito joke, and get me to see what could be Bo thought process in creating this number. Thank you for spelling it out for me.
