[@Musicalpeep93]

Thank you for talking about your anxiety, Colin. A lot of us feel a similar way and I hope you find solace and comfort in knowing you help us everyday, despite your own anxieties.

[@CrossOutBryce]

Wow, Tim should keep his hair like that more often!

[@TrentFlanery]

Colin, my dad has social anxiety, so you're really resonating with me. When I get home, I am going to show him this video and see how he relates to you. Thank you for sharing it!

[@elitegodfathers]

I barely leave the house, so when I talk to strangers, my voice cracks. I also obsess over how I walk. Like I try to imagine myself in the third person, and try to imagine how I walk.

[@23Darrus]

+Peanut0423 right there with you. I used to obsess over how i walk too. In highschool i would go crazy over it. But i realized the more i would worry about it the more awkward i would walk (at least for me) but now all i do is try to stand up straight whilst not worrying about how straight my neck is. =]

[@nuclear804]

+Peanut0423 i relate completely

[@krikit]

It's not just me!

[@Ryanbashaw91]

it's kind of like thinking about breathing. clear your mind bro!

[@lowpolybreakfast]

+Peanut0423 aww dude the walking thing is the worst....it's the self awareness for me, like instead of just walking, I think about walking and then I can't fucking walk lol

[@UGottaLoveThatRiku]

as someone who struggles with really bad anxiety silently it's really nice to hear someone else who struggles with since it does make you feel like your alone and crazy because hardly anyone talks about it. also as someone who sucks ass at trying to explain how i feel (why i struggle with it silently) its really great to listen to this and next time i have to explain anxiety to someone i can articulate it better. Thanks Colin!

[@jonahvandermel]

Wow that anxiety topic really resonated with me. I have crippling social anxiety as well, and it's the little things that eat me up. Every time I'm out walking somewhere I literally feel like everyone is staring and me and judging me. If I stumble while speaking to a customer at work I worry that they think I'm an idiot and then I beat myself up over it for a while. If I"m face to face with a person I rarely start the conversation unless I'm at work and I have to. All my friends left for university last year while I'm at home working and going to community college, so I haven't had any social interaction with people my age group, barring 2 or so weeks in January. When people ask me to do something I almost never say no, even if I really don't want to do whatever it is they're asking. I really dislike making eye contact when I'm speaking with someone. I have trouble talking to women in a social setting. The list goes on and on. Last year at the PAX East meet and greet all I did was simply walk in, have a few quick chats with the guys and leave. I didn't stay to talk to any Best Friends and honestly my conversation with Tim was painfully awkward, because it was just me and he was the first one I spoke to. For all my best friends out there, therapy and the right medication(s) can really help. This community has helped me come out of my shell a little bit, and I can't wait to meet more of you guys. Kudos to my boy, Colin M. for speaking so candidly about anxiety, it is very appreciated.

[@koosmonkey8178]

working my way through the old episodes. thank you so much for sharing, Colin. Much love your way!

[@brentrdevlin]

Yo Colin.... put down the booze and pick up the green. Your anxiety will thank you.

[@whizkid75]

+Brent Devlin Not the place, dude.

[@LauraGray]

+Brent Devlin I find it's the opposite for me :) Booze is fine, green makes it 10x worse.

[@whizkid75]

+Laura Gray Same

[@TheMightySilverback_]

Agreed 👍

[@tyler6644]

+Brent Devlin weed helps me a fuck ton with anxiety

[@Pokedude97]

This is pretty funny watching in 2022 when they’re just “The Washington Football Team” and Colin’s intro is still on-point.

[@jacobpro_]

The Washington Commanders

[@HansBoopie]

The look on Tim's face as Colin starts ranting about social media again, lol.

[@nikkorn13]

Wow! Thanks so much Colin. It was really comforting to hear someone I look up to talk about something I've been dealing with for so long.

[@gus6736]

Awesome podcast this week. I found it kinda funny that the public personalities they focused for the "can you be forgiven segment?" were Mike Tyson, Kanye West, OJ Simpson and Chris Brown. All black men. Kinda Funny huh?

[@neme386]

that white spot in the V in OVER is driving me crazy

[@FlynnTaggartGuy]

+Nemuel Major It has been bugging me for so long.

[@FlynnTaggartGuy]

Ryan Bashaw You're welcome.

[@JUMPskits]

Hey Colin, thanks for sharing your experience with anxiety. When my own anxiety hit a fever pitch last year around this time, knowing that you had anxiety as well made me feel a lot better about my prospects. I avoid using medication for the same reasons you do but I've found meditation and music very helpful during my worst times.

[@BloopinDaThird]

The opening is beyond epic this should be a game

[@Beastbygaming]

I've noticed a step up in the way Tim is getting his thoughts across lately. Eloquent and concise. Good job Tim, it must be the hair!

[@jsingletary]

this really made me connect with Colin man. Crazy how much I resonated with him

[@BigDaddyBdog1]

I've come to realize more and more just how amazing Tim is.

[@NerDex]

This topic really spoke to me!.Really appreciate Colin's openness .

[@SuperSmoker710]

Colin is just too good. His views on things are always on point.

[@TheRealDman765]

I'll give an example of how I suffer from my GAD. I'm a graphic designer. We are required to have a perfect eye for design and detail while at the same time, abide by strict deadlines, stay perfectly organized, multitask your fucking ass off, not overthink and have something perfect made with all this in mind. My anxiety causes me to fucking overthink, have intense brainfog, worry that I'm not fast enough, worry that I'm going to get fired if I'm not on the right track, worry that everyone is going to shit all over my design solutions, worry that I am worrying to much. Oh! look at that. I spent 15 minutes worrying and overthinking and I was supposed to have an entire website designed in 20 minutes. I can't focus, I can't stop worrying about my inevitable failure and now I get to sit here and listen to everyone yell at me because I failed again. I let my anxiety keep me from being perfect. I'll go home tonight, drink some nitequil, and cry myself to sleep because I get to do it all over again tomorrow. I'm a grown as man and I can't handle such "simple" tasks. I can't even put into words the utter debilitating static that flashes in my head. So this is life? I'm just here to suffer? There's literally no reasoning with the chaos in my head. I'm just so fucking scared. Even outside of work, I get terribly anxious and irrationally guilty when friends ask me to hang out or offer me rides (my anxiety keeps me from being behind the wheel. Yes it's THAT bad). I'd rather just be alone at home and hope that people forget that I exist. They usually do. I feel like I'm in a glass jar and the world is quickly moving around me while I'm lightyears behind. I'm literally just stuck inside my own head and I just feel crazy. I don't know how much sanity is left in me before I finally lose it. I know this isn't my personal blog and I wish I had stopped myself from typing all of this shit but I didn't. Thank you Colin. I'm guilty of being negative towards you (although I never really expressed it thank god), a lot of your opinions piss me off, but you hit the nail on the head with this anxiety shit.

[@thesvc2006]

the selfawareness is the worst part fro sure. i'll be in the mall with my fiance having a normal day, and then all of a sudden my mind starts racing and worrying about nonsense, and i can look around and tell that everyone else is normal and i'm the only one in a stressed state in that moment. even tho i can realize that, i can't stop it either. it's awful. just glad i found a partner who i can say "hey i've hit my wall i need out of here" and she understands and we bail.

[@matthewthesecond]

29:30 - 30:20 resonates with me so much. I have this excellent job, surrounded by smart people and I feel like I don't deserve it. Like I took someone's place and someone will see me as a fraud or something. Don't know what to make of it but it bothers me. Doesn't matter how hard I work, I feel like I cheated to get to where I am...

[@Fishstix-ri3so]

Keep up the good work. Colin keeping it real. Enjoy you guys and your honesty.

[@DigitalAlex3D]

It doesn't matter if you check yes or no, Baskin-Robbins will always find out about your criminal past.

[@MumonguGaming]

Have a HUG from me Colin. I understand your frustrations. Great Show guys. Get Well Soon Nick & Kevin

[@ashleyedwards3082]

Great topics, my partner has generalised anxiety disorder and I really sympathise with what you have to deal with on a daily basis. Also completely agree with how stupid it is locking people up for petty drug offences. What is more debilitating the effects of a joint or the criminal record they have for life? There's actually a great Netflix documentary Culture High which breaks down this topic definitely recommend it.

[@NestorYamilGalvanAngeles]

Tim don't ever change

[@twayneusmc1993]

I was going to try to become a police officer after I got out of the Marines. But I got an underage drinking charge at 20 and in Illinois if you get that you get your license suspended and court supervision. It's not a felony but now it's made me not be able to work as a police officer and it barred me from getting a job at the post office.. Also with the rape charges stuff. I believe that if you make a false accusation you should be able to get charged with something. If it's proven you made a false accusation. That's such a confusing thing though because like you guys said you want victims to be able to come out and get help. But you don't want innocent people getting their lives destroyed by faulty accusations.

[@MrSz727]

Tim looked way too comfortable and happy when he was showing us that thong pic. lol

[@tompritchett6184]

Thank you Colin.

[@RaviDewitt]

That would be the best GOG the entire episode everyone in getting a clean shave or shape up and cut.

[@beadlehands]

A UK perspective on felons and celebrity. If Rolf Harris ever gets out of jail alive, i doubt a re-release of his single "Two little boys" would be a chart topper.

[@ckortjester]

So I've never necessarily felt "anxiety" but I get loud thoughts about twice a month, where that voice in your head is screaming, instead of a normal tone. I mentally start to break down and I don't know how to deal with myself and I can't function. I just want to hide away or do something to pull my mind away from things, which is why I turn to playing music, instead of listening. I don't know why or what triggers it, glad I could get this out to people. Am I the only one consistently getting 'loud thoughts' ?

[@ckortjester]

The most recent time I was making dinner and it came out of nowhere, I took my chicken out of the oven and I struggled to put the pan on the stove because I couldn't focus on my own arm holding a pan, my mind just emptied and i heard my own voice 'screaming' in my head.

[@channelanimeplusgaming5178]

Colby Kortas i reccomeend to search in youtube mindfulness is pretty good remember the mind take about 20 day to change aspect...

[@rccharger21]

Holy Shit this was a good episode! Colin, you are WAY more eloquent at describing anxiety than I am lol it is an every day thing that fucking sucks.

[@louisa1167]

Great episode. Great topics. Hit home.

[@Deplorableprogressive]

We love you Colin!

[@robertgonzalez5531]

Great video guys!!

[@thedakota1099]

Love you Colin.

[@Borac9]

Where was Nick in this episode?

[@ranma6276]

Tim seems like such a good listener.

[@henreebee6561]

Colin, you should consider therapy. There's no shame in it, it's basically just paying someone to listen to you and talk with you about your anxieties. You learn a lot about yourself and figure out a lot of stuff in your head if you just TALK it out with someone. I used to be an extremely anxious person in high school and then I started going to therapy on and off for a few years in college and now I feel like I'll never be anxious again, not like how I used to be. It took a long time and a lot of work but I feel like I beat most of my anxiety. Obviously it's really a lifelong process to keep weeding out the things that make you anxious, because they're a deep part of your psyche, but if you can identify them you can really start to gain control over them, and therapy helps a lot with starting that process. Give it a try!

[@Cmacz93]

Sleeping a lot is also a sign of anxiety and depression Tim,

[@NestorYamilGalvanAngeles]

One time for my boy Colin M

[@Salemalghanim]

There's always a chance to be forgiven

[@TheFlyersFan88]

"I'm a morning person, so I like to be up at 8:15" since when is 8:15 early?

[@johndimos9535]

John Dimos is me!

[@absnceofcolor]

There definitely needs to be prison reform. Way too much money goes in to keeping people imprisoned in the US.

[@rayh966]

Colin, other people are usually the problem. Avoid when possible. Be polite when avoidance isn't feasible. These are the rules of being introverted in the modern age.

[@Josh_H]

I hated the subject about Tyson because none of them researched his case at all.

[@DavidMcKinstry]

What the hell is going on with Tim's hair? lol

[@MohammadFaramarzian]

wow the only time i don't agree with Colin. but Colin the law doesn't always prosecute the the evil doer sometimes an innocent person may be prostituted. what if that person was your son :(. we live in a world where everyone takes advantage of any form of power over other people, therefore sometimes us good people will have to sacrifice something in life for the luxury of living in a social order. sometimes its filing out a stupid form when you don't really have to, not being able to park somewhere, locking your door or accepting of others crimes and giving them another chance, these are all sh*$ we have to do cause someone out there is dumb, lazy, stupid.

[@jackskulling6265]

Tyson was not guilty of rape he was guilty of being black and rich in America in the 1990's.

[@Ryanbashaw91]

guy in the middle, perhaps a career change?

[@gcemjie69]

Man - i had to minimize the video, and just listen as audio only because Tim's haircut was WAY TOO distracting.

[@ucalleros]

I'm going to sound like asshole. Sometimes I just want to hear what Colin thinks and I'm not interested in what Tim has to say. If I wanted to hear an inarticulate dummy give an opinion I'd just listen to myself talk.

[@jonahvandermel]

Only seen the first few minutes so far. I don't think the Redskins name and logo are necessarily offensive or racist, but I think they are in poor taste and should probably be changed.

[@gameboypunk660]

actually Redskins refers to time in American history when the federal government payed cash bounties on Indian scalps man, woman or child soooo its your prerogative to determine if the term is racist
