"Arya might be missing a few points in her morality skill tree but she sure knows how to stick things with the fuckin pointy end" What a beautiful summary of Arya's character. Can't wait for that Arya/Jon reunion.

[@emilyharper7985]

The point of art is to find a piece of your soul in something else. That’s why we love you! Your nerdy ramblings are art and speak to the essence of our nerdy souls.

[@josephmoenrevolution]

Emily Harper Also our soulful nerds.

[@derTangram]

I know I'm late to the party but it also speaks to my inner alcoholic

[@stevenhayes7910]

I think the reason Yoren beat Arya was to hide any favoratism. Wanted to treat her like she was just another kid that just attacked a future "brother," but because he wanted to help her, that's why gave her sour leaf afterwards.

[@mirphh3261]

Very late, and somewhat irrelevant, but love the whole "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" tangent on art. One of my favorite quotes about this is from Dave Grohl, and when asked about the meaning behind his music, he basically said there is no meaning. "That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons."

[@catathielemann3239]

Thanks for the streaming and for all the love, Alt dear. And hugs for the #SchwiftySquwad

[@artosj230]

Watching this at 1.5x speed, it's actually quite watchable - you still get the inane babble, repetition, and errs and umms, but it also circles back to the actual talking points before you lose your will to live.

[@JPhillups1018]

Getting through these videos are rough. The guy can’t stay on track for more than a minute without his terminal ADD kicking in

[@jehaert]

actually you got it wrong: blue was and is a colour that is not known by all peoples around the world. it does not appear in the Illias for that matter: colours meantioned there are: black, white, red and the ocean is often described and green (which it often is). experiments have been done with tribes in africa who have a lot more words for different shades of green, but none for blue. look it up, it is pretty interesting, the first guy to stumble across this was Gladstone, the British Primeminister who even went so far as to not teach his daughter the world blue in order to see what colour the sky is for her lulz

[@PattyO.N.Company]

(also very late) but i always took Yoren beatin Arya as protecting her. if he just let some little rat boy beat another half to death and left it unpunished, everyone would be like "whats so special about this Arry?"

[@wolfwithlashes5303]

its 2022, i just finished the ice berg theory video and can't get enough of your comedy, love this!

[@55bueller]

I can't believe I missed the stream. Well so much for ever sleeping again!

[@rikkeholmberg]

Thank you. It is a good day to be alive :)

[@btarczy5067]

Even a Schwift cannot be described without a food analogy. This is what I'm here for! That tangent about stages of morality was damn brilliant, Hot Pie!

[@FaeryQuiene]

Thanks Schiwft! That was an excellent surprise. #schwiftysquwad

[@blondie23jlk]

I've always felt that the purpose or point of art is to illicit an emotional response - whether it's hope or wonder, anger or even disgust.

[@yetipotato8567]

I love everything about this man. Its going to be the joy of many car rides and slow evenings

[@dianarook9254]

Nooo! I wake up after a late flight and he's 71 minutes into it!

[@jinxedsphinx3600]

71?? The video is 59 minutes long 😭 You were so late you broke spacetime smh

[@TunezCottage]

I always interpreted Yhoren spanking Arya as a way for the rest of the train to know that she didn't receive any special treatment since she does yell out when he does.

[@ethanbrowning2857]

your Jorge the colour hunter tangent sounded too much like an Alex Jones rant. And I loved it.

[@ProjectSeventy]

I can neither confirm nor deny anything about the colour turquoise.

[@Seelenverheizer]

what a sick story

[@DestroySteve]

Wow. Using Gargamel as an example of evil is bold. Lol

[@derrickwatson4597]

Hey Schwifty, see if you could get your dimwitted cousin Alt Shift X to release that doom of Valeria video. Tell him to get his thumbs outta Hodors hotpie and give the people what they want.😂😂😂

[@suebanner9485]

Inner bark of lindon trees is like a mild cannabaniod.

[@255Jen]

I have been working my way through the whole abridged playlist and I love it, I'm sure you have heard by now that many people find your voice very soothing... so I am baffled who asked for the raspy voice! Noooo! I had to skip most of the prologue because it hurts my head

[@kqwentin]

@shwifty did you really just reference jean-baptiste emanuel zorg? lmao

[@RandomAnimeFighter]

I’m glad you stuck to KZbin

[@humzakhalid7902]

9:37 is when he finally gets to the actual chapter...about 20 secs before that he just mentions some arya related points...:) ur welcome

[@deffientllynotjalenbutler1736]

Whatever the rambling is the best part

[@QueenDaenerysTargaryen]

I will take back what is mine with fire and blood I will take it. 🔥🐉🐲🐉🔥

[@nonastans]

Very good question! We require more recreational drugs in fantasy

[@homon4422]

i fucking died when he said gargamel

[@KlaraL-_-]

Thank you Schwift for another chapter! Finally some Hot pie :) But is poor Tyrek Lannister actually alive and part of Varys´s plan??

[@TillyInWonderland]

I missed it :( is there a schedule to these streams? Pleeaaase

[@slykeren8371]

Tilly in Wonderland NO

[@BionicIguana]

I'm here for the DnD alignment chart references

[@stephaniec9539]

with blood of a virgin frog

[@samk522]

Sourleaf is betel/paan. The effects are pretty much identical.

[@ryan.holland]

Just to let y’all know schwift and shift have the same amount of videos

[@jenniemaes1967]

It's actually pronounced "Raisin D. Eater"

[@maasjoe]

Die Antwoord reference?

[@EvelynDayless]

Swift-coin needs to be acquired by abridging fiction rather than crunching numbers. It's the perfect currency.

[@HelciusCabral]

Aw man missed it :(

[@sassyb58]

bloom and blossom like a "mushroom" in the cellar! because YOUR! audio is way better than REAEAEAEAEDDDDDDING yuk!

[@avengercannon]

I swear there is only a paragraph of information relayed in the first half hour and the other half is some form of drunken chicanery.

[@shazzy544]

Hot Pie comin atcha

[@adriansuarez9523]

Yesssssss

[@DS-es2jt]

I thought Tywins stare would cause the doom of Kingslanding...:(

[@alwaysblazen1369]

sweet 2 in a row and 1st comment life is good

[@Gatinois]

Raison d'être!

[@frankie9772]

Hitler actually burned books in 1933.

[@WTFoolproof]

I make dyes from mushrooms and lichens.

[@margaritaquiroga8712]

I like ACOK more than AGOT for this book... I mean, if you were to use the same name shouldn't it be ASOIAF?

[@Smackamack]

Pol Pot..very literal man. Wahahahha what 😂 edit: still listening, first episode in, wondering if this is actually Alt Shift X unhinged, as oppsed to Alt Shwift X abridged)

[@conormurphy4328]

You’re right about art with some pieces but definitely not all. There’s art that has a very specific intention or message behind it that you would have to either intentionally disregard parts or completely misinterpret to draw a different conclusion

[@tbunating1451]

STOP DOING THESE WHILE I'M AT WORK :'(

[@Trustworthy_McLegitimate]

motly fockin croooo!!!

[@deffientllynotjalenbutler1736]

Road trip

[@faisalkamal4319]

Poor jorje

[@joey1897]

Check out stitcher. It's easy for podcasts and free.

[@alexanderf8451]

4 pages an hour, eh?

[@PattyO.N.Company]

reject literacy? return to monke? history's greatest monster The Hamburglar could read?

[@Boyzby]

If Arya beat the shit out of the kid so bad she could've killed him if continued, I think a spanking is not too far as punishment. Also, it's Westeros. I don't think there's that many chances to plop a kid on your knee and go "You shouldn't beat the shit out of people", then pat them on the back and send them off.

[@ILikedGooglePlus]

35:40

[@Mari-tc4gw]

44:00

[@camorinbatchelder6514]

Acockabridged

[@cynical_insight]

starts at 9:38. before that just filler bs

[@SoCal818]

Am I the only one who thinks that someone who stutters and repeats himself this much must also be on the spectrum? 🤣

[@sassyb58]

Relistening. Why would we want to read when books are full of Vashta Narada! And we'd have to read it alone without the magnificence of Alt Schwifty

[@angelined9814]

Focus. On. The. Damn. Book.

[@faisalkamal4319]

Reading is for nerds
