Challenge Accepted: Podcast with Michelle Khare | Press ESC

[@MichelleKhare]

Thank you so much for having me!! I had such a fun time 🥰 I’ll hit you up when NASA gets back to me 😉

[@TheDailyEgg]

You're the best

[@BossPink_Lili]

Oh plz! We need a challenge accepted collaboration!

[@OiraVon]

Been watching you since BzFd. Along with lots of creators safiya, and others...

[@rawrxheather]

When you’re Arkansas white! lol 🙃

[@robertpriel1111]

OMG, you almost mentioned your Fortnite tournament to Rae 😢 PLEASE 🙏 duos with Valkyrae in Fortnite

[@CallMeOdysseus]

So impressed by Lisa taking interview classes and being so well prepared, she’s blossomed so much as a host on PressESC!!

[@sushiorange6443]

She took classes??? Omg she goes above and beyond she’s so impressive bro 😭. I aspire to have that trait and always be well prepared

[@dale-exe]

Rae checking her pulse when Michelle was talking about the backup plan if the Houdini trick failed lmao 7:55

[@seasyrenn]

Rae is so,so animated and quirky,that was hilarious 😂 ...

[@PotatQween]

“Would you ever do that for a challenge?” “Do you do drugs?” The whiplash yall are giving her in the span of a few seconds killssss me 😂😂😂❤️

[@jesseire666]

RAE I KNOW YOU'RE READING THE COMMENTS as someone who has watched every episode, I love yours and Lisa's differences. You're too hard on yourself!! It's okay that you're not a doc prepping girlie and Lisa is, because if every podcast host was exactly the same it would be boring! You both bring something different to the table and that's why it works so well. You and Lisa empower each other in different ways and it's awesome 💖 Some of the people I've worked the best with throughout my career have been so different to me and we were the ultimate teams!!! LOVING THE POD, LOVING THE CHEMISTRY, LOVING THE HONEST CONVOS THANK YOU FOR CREATING AND SHARING THIS WITH US ☀️💖

[@Ellminsterx]

love rae n Lisa but khare is to fake and woke for me. The 90 days black belt she said she made that in 4 days.

[@dffgffffffdddddddddd]

[@sharifaadel3835]

@@dffgffffffdddddddddd they're talking about michelle khare, not lisa

[@jesseire666]

@@Ellminsterx If you're not into "woke" content or personalities, this probably isn't the community for you. We're POC & LGBTQ+ supporting, neurodivergent celebrating, pro-women and minority group snowflakes and that isn't gonna change 😇

[@sabinajoh]

@@EllminsterxI have so many comments about that comment lol but she said she worked 4 days, then had a rest day, then worked 4 days etc. For 90 days. Not that it took 4 days :)

[@onyroo]

This was the first guest I wasn’t familiar with before and wow. What an insightful interview. I feel like I’ve been a fan of her for years now lol.

[@skyxoz]

her content is AMAZING! really in a league of their own imo

[@justdina14]

If you have the time, i really recommend her videos. They're amazing!

[@Reina-Ayu]

What I love the most about this podcast is the effort that keeps being put into it. Lisa continuously thrives to be a good host and contribute regardless of who the guest is. Rae brings her spontaneity and she models the genuine different thoughts that spur in the moment. They balance each other and complement each other so beautifully and I genuinely appreciate the fact that they perfectly combine easy-going vibes with knowledge (Oh I didn’t know this and that). They care so much about this podcast and improving, they don’t ride off the fact that they’re famous faces and whatever they yap about will be enough.

[@175_ftb]

I really have a lot of respect for Michelle for doing all those different things. Her story could definitely be written down in a book.

[@sushiorange6443]

Yes it takes a lot of self discipline and mental preparation and effort to just dedicate this much time to just learn one skill. Also a lot of courage! Cause there’s always going to be “what if I fail?” Cause her goal is to succeed but she can also fail.

[@Ahmad--bn2pg]

OK IMMA SAY IT... THIS IS THE BEST PODCAST EVERRR MADE. I love everything about it, I leave every episode feeling like the best version of myself and wanting to be better and better. Me and my friends are obsessed, SO MUCH LOVE to the girlies form the queer community in Saudi Arabia.

[@cookiedragon8234]

Fellow mixed race person here: it's really really healing to hear you talk about the struggles you've all gone through with identity and belonging. Thank you for diving into these topics and bringing on the coolest guests! Your voices really matter

[@sharalyngrulke1638]

I love how Michelle genuinely wanted to be here and was so excited the whole time’s 😭🥰

[@UnlonelyTomo]

This sitting arrangement is actually perfect for guests

[@harlequeenchannel]

I always think how comfy it all looks

[@lawyermorty6735]

michelle wearing that red jacket for each podcast. gotta rewatch the yard now

[@darkfeather111]

im wondering how long this episode was filmed ago? like was this filmed 9 months ago and just released now because she has on the same exact outfit as in the yard episode

[@TiffanyLola-d1c]

@@darkfeather111this was filmed around December so not too long ago lol 😂

[@mburguette]

Michelle is a "one on one" person. Literally I've been inspired by this woman countless times, and I don't even speak the same language. She makes me want to try more things and listening to this podcast and hearing her talk like that, it really wows me. Thank you so much for this one you guys!

[@hi.maxinne]

Michelle is so ethereal here. She radiates and embodies a feeling of calm and bliss of just being in the moment.

[@joopyter]

don't sweat not having a ton of prepared questions! we love the casual convo; it makes it so cozy there's definitely a happy middle

[@Itsklljoyy]

She’s a favorite creator of mine. I wait patiently for her videos to come out and appreciate everything that goes into them. She’s a great motivator and inspiration

[@marcosinthemaking]

1:10:55 ‘do you have an inner monologue?’ ‘I do.’ ‘Is it constant?’ this interaction reminded me of ‘have you every had Krispy Kreme? was it crispy?’ and i will be using that

[@dubid4ph]

8:03 not rae casually feeling her pulse LMAOOO

[@loki350]

Ive actually never heard of Michelle before this but im so impressed and informed. She seems so great. Well spoken and charismatic for sure.

[@jerrylinno8771]

Her dedication to the challenge accepted videos definitely shows! Taking multiple months to learn a new craft or live a different lifestyle is crazy but super cool. Can’t wait to see what else she does in the new year🙌

[@Instinctlv]

Just Three woman out here bossing it up! Lets get pressESC to 100k we’re so close!!! ♥️

[@sushiorange6443]

Yessss. I hope I’ll be able to be a boss lady like these woman here one day 😭❤️

[@ShareNoMimosa]

I didn't know Lisa took an interview class, but her prep and questions really shined (shone?) in this episode! And Rae, you're doing great!! We love your yapping and thanks for building a safe place to talk about things people dont really talk about. The dynamic between you two is a perfect balance to help the guest feel comfortable/keep the podcast comfy while also providing some real insight into these powerhouse creators I don't know much about. Love you all, great work everyone!

[@mizzhayez9601]

Will Lisa be bringing her own guest? Pre-podcast I had never heard of Lisa so I'm so intrigued to get to learn about her end of the social crowd! Plus I LOVE the art community and am excited to find new artist to follow/support she may know. You girls are doing awesome!

[@dale-exe]

a Press ESC episode in a NASA Mars colony simulation room would be insane 54:20

[@Pyrotek777]

Also can totally see the progress of hosting from episode one to this. Y’all have learned so quickly from the previous experiences. Cheers!

[@OurKindofEntertainment]

Been crushing on Michelle since her Buzzfeed days. So proud of her and how far she's come since then!

[@notavuhlon]

Love this podcast so much, I am learning about all these amazing people. Watching this podcast is really inspiring, please never stop this lol. I really love when you guys have female guests, its really insipring and motivating. I learned so much abt Michelle Khare and shes so AWESOME she does so many things, and Im going to being watching all her stuff now. I also inlove with Alythuh's style, she is always eating with her outfits. Also I love alythuh's organization lol, I feel like it grounds the podcast, but the podcast is truly at its best when you guys are just being authentic and going with your flow, not everyone elses expectational flow for a podcast. I understand you guys read the comments and listen to improve, but just a reminder don't let it completely filter you guys :) you guys are amazing women who inspire me and other girls alike, I love raes yappin, dont stop lol, and this podcast is really enjoyable when you guys are unfiltered.

[@josenpai]

Just wanna say that I'n so glad I found Michelle Khare's KZbin channel and I'm so excited and happy with these worlds sort of colliding with Michelle being a guest in Press Esc which features Rae. I love how more comfortable Aly is now. I love this podcast

[@MarcusPowell-b1j]

I knew of Michelle through other collabs she’s done but getting to learn more bts of her videos and life is great!! Gotta check out some of her videos now!

[@indiefold]

Thanks! This episode was great. Fun learning about Michelle. Really look forward to you guys having more guests on!!!

[@Yuh4yuh]

Alsoooo the improvment both rae and lisa have had teh past few episodes is insane!! it shows!!! props to both of u for making the pod not only so fun to watch bc of both of ur personalities but also so balanced overall with everything uve adopted fromthe feedback u got making it truly fun!! keep it up!!

[@paigehansen8944]

Loved the bit with Marsh explaining hallucinogens like , “yeah, I just heard it somewhere, I don’t _really_ know anything about it…”

[@Yuh4yuh]

bro this women is actually insanee, esp someone dealing w panik attacks or anxity, hearing someone willingling do these impossible challanges im jus horrified and inspired. im litterally like rae sitting here jus hearing all this and my pulse is going up LOL. respect to u Michelle!

[@slimmii111]

I’ve been watching this podcast for a while now and this might have been one of my favorite episodes. It’s so amazing hearing Michelle’s story and the energy/vibes of this episode were top notch. Absolutely loved this!

[@kanasan8217]

Rae! Don’t be too hard on yourself! You always do best when you are unfiltered and purely yourself! Don’t let the fear of offending the few people, even your friends. At the end of the day, friends and people alike won’t judge you for it because they know at the end of the day you are a genuine, sweet good person!! I hope you see this and put it to heart!! Thank you for all you do!!🩷🩷

[@yogi72247]

This was such an amazing episode!! I watched some of Michelle's videos like a year or so ago and this was so cool to hear more about how all the Challenge Accepted videos work and some of the behind the scenes of it all.

[@leftrighttoe]

lisa looks SO GOOD in this episode her outfit is tea

[@Havanah-ov4yt]

Rae I want you to know you, Lisa and all employees are absolutely killing it. Normally anyone starting something new creatively takes awhile to get the pace right and adjust to it. I’m sure that you’re learning and growing but from an audience perspective this show seems really natural and seamlessly enjoyable to watch. I’m so impressed! Not that I expected bad content, it’s just really quickly comfortable to view and that’s an accomplishment! I didn’t expect to be so entertained right off the bat. I was hooked first ep! Even if I wasn’t already a fan I would have enjoyed it.

[@sindre.]

Congrats on 100k!

[@patyheartsyou]

Great episode! I’ve known who Michelle was through buzzfeed but never really followed her content. But wow she seems so interesting! I love the way she speaks. Also, Lisa taking interview classes is so adorable haha.

[@yubinalena]

This podcast is part of my Monday morning routine where I listen to it while I start my workday and go through e-mails. I absolutely love the Press ESC podcast. Rae and Lisa are so open and honest and they put so much work into it. Lisa taking interview classes for instance and all the research both of you do to prepare for every guest. Thank you guys for this amazing podcast! I absolutely enjoy it and I look forward to it every week!

[@amandamichel6226]

Rae I am such a long time fan, so proud of you for doing this podcast. I didn’t know Michelle Khare before but now I am so obsessed with her I have been watching her channel all day! Thank you for introducing new guests to us. Thank you everyone for all your hard work you are doing a fantastic job ❤

[@switchlayne]

This episode is really inspiring to me. I am 28 and i have an autoimmune disorder Ive dealt with my whole life. My parents are very protective, I still live with them because it feels like they dont trust me to take care of myself and it kinda feels like Im trapped and I cant do what I want and progress in life. I get it because they have sacrificed so much for my health but I just want to live my own life. This is inspiring me to strive to make a name for myself and not let my autoimmune disorder define me. I have wanted to stream and post on YT but Ive procrastinated for like 5 years. Im scared of putting myself out there because in school I could always tell people saw me differently than a normal person because of my disorder and Im scared of social interactions and scared of what people think of me. I just want to be seen like a human and taken seriously but its hard when parents dont trust me to take care of myself and when people feel bad for me or see me different. But seeing this episode Im gonna just say fuck it and put myself out there and stream for the fun of it and not worry what people think. Im gonna just do it for me, and help others like me along the way and let them know they are not alone. :)

[@jkoldenburg8549]

On the topic of being mixed, I highly recommend reading about biracial identity crisis! I believe it describes growing up mixed so so well. It really helped me to better understand myself as I was going through it and as I continue to repeat this cycle.

[@bloodxxandxxwings]

Loved this episode! Didn’t know Michelle before this, but now I have to check out her channel!

[@jasontodd6822]

Hii rae and lisa! I just want to say you girls are doing great and you're being too hard on yourselves. I'm loving this podcast, I'm learning so much. I love the yapping and longer episodes. I can only see the podcast getting better this year! best wishes for the new year, I will be eagerly waiting for the next episode weekly :DD

[@coffeegirl18]

You are so inspiring and then you have Michelle on! I was literally screaming I was so excited. Also I'm planning on going back to college for a legal office admin or a law clerk. I was studying to possibly go into law originally and ended up very sick from Lupus. I'm in remission now and am planning on girl bossing it. (I'm a tough contender when I focus on something.) Michelle- totally looking forward to your mock trial. I did a couple back in high school but it wasn't against an actual lawyer.

[@BossPink_Lili]

Rae has always been humble, grounded and never saw herself above anyone so im glad to see when she’s given her flowers and told what an inspiration and impactful person she is. Those are the people i like to support with my money and time. Because of Rae she has introduced me to so many creative amazing people like Lisa and Michelle. What a great episode. Ill surely be checking out Michelle’s content! 100k subs here we come!!!

I love the walk off outro, idk it just feels so real and not fake. It's hard to explain lol it's just cute. I found this podcast from the Markiplier episode and have been watching all the videos since! Great job girlies 💙

[@UltimateLinkXD]

Loved the conversation with Michelle and the questions and genuine interest Rae and Lisa had. If you don’t have her scheduled as a guest/an episode recorded, might I suggest you get Cleo Abram on the podcast since she is basically Michelle if she was a science commentator and her experiences were all science focused, and I think Rae and Lisa would both enjoy her stories and experiences.

[@druisalive]

What a great interview! I hope you all open up the podcast to individuals with different backgrounds and different spaces outside of KZbin and twitch :)

[@symiki7609]

hihi!! I'm loving the episodes, I listen to them on my way to work in the mornings 😊 I don't know if anyone else has proposed this or if you girls have it lined up but I'd be really interested in hearing from guests from alythuh's side of business. I'm very very internet cultured and I love love to hear from my creators but at the same time I'd love to know of other business women and maybe smaller or not small companies that wouldn't get the space to share their stories otherwise. I'm very in my working era and the empowering thing is getting to me lol

[@erikpadron2700]

I HAVE BEEEEN WAITINGGGGGG FOR THIS EPISODE!!!!!!

[@electricwassabi]

This is so good!

[@savannahquezada1201]

Whoever told them to stop yapping I just wanna talk… WITH MY FISTS! Don’t want to make a super negative post sorry but the first half just watching Rae sit there trying to not talk and Lisa going through the bullet points was not Press ESC I’m a Spotify listener but I am a fan of Michelle Khare so I wanted to watch this episode but man this was rough. I love how they always go on tangents with guests because they literally can’t help themselves THATS SO RELATABLE! Plus the things they say and talk about normally which Michelle brought up because she watches the show and Rae! If you guys read this don’t let “yapping” have a negative connotation YALL YAP! ITS GREAT keep yapping keep asking those questions that pop up in your head it’s great! At the 1 hour mark it finally felt like a conversation not an interrogation. Bro y’all asked her to do a DMT challenge accepted LOL that’s the Press ESC I love

[@stitchilalu]

What a treat, this came out on my birthday! ❤

[@raysmodernlife2525]

I dont know if its the editing or what but this episode felt a little hectic pacing wise. Like it goes from normal conversations to to ray and lisa spewing out everythought in their head back to a normal conversation ahahah. its wild

MICHELLE KHARE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I HAVE BEEN CRAVING A NEW EPISODE SO MUCH MY WEEKLY DOPAMINE

[@musenaadia]

On the topic of religion and death/afterlife I've been contemplating a lot about whether or not I'm agnostic still (especially since I just considered that I do believe in spirits/miracles so I must believe in some form of an afterlife, anyway), however, I recently rewatched episode 3 (season 1) of Midnight Gospel (if you haven't watched it I HIGHLY recommend it!!!) and it's a discussion about the process of developing an astral body. We have two types of deaths: physical and one that unveils our solar/astral body. Once that solar body is developed, the consciousness can be preserved and moved between the physical and metaphysical realms apparently. Such a wild concept I've decided to dedicate some energy and time into learning soon, but I figured you ladies would appreciate it and might enjoy the lesson to some degree. Love everything about this podcast and you two ladies!
