9:35 "I ain't noodling for fish!" .... Welcome to 2019 Brad

[@ChargeQM]

Incredible episode as well. I might have my mom watch it to get her into this channel. She loves seeing all those esoteric food-gathering tactics.

[@notmefrfr]

@@ChargeQM bring you mom down to Arkansas, we can teach her all about getting food the good ol way. There is way too big of a disconnect between food and nature.

[@smiledogjgp]

I remember distinctly that one time, I fell asleep with autoplay on. I think I was watching speedruns, but at one point I woke up to this video, right around the 2:25 mark. It was in that perfect moment of chaos and confusion where nothing makes sense. I immediately started thinking about tuna steaks when they talked about fish meat, but than the fish floated past, and my thoughts evolved into something intense. It was a like a vision from the 4th dimension. It was than that I closed my eyes again and fell back asleep. What a night that was.

Wow,, I'm pretty sure I was watching speedruns when I was recommended this channel, too lol 🤔🤔must've been some dreams you were having lmao

I typically don't thumbs up videos or comments. but this series must continue until the end of time and I will do everything in my power to ensure it. mostly just watching each video 3 or 4 times.
