[@hblack4857]

If Simon & co want a kick ass nature channel, go for it, but if they just want to watch one that's kinda in their style, I think the channel called Casual Geographic is a brilliant channel about hw fudged up animals allready are!

[@noth606]

You should (almost) have your own "rival" product: The Simonator - that promotes hairloss and promotes beard growth! The Simonator - Bald, Bearded and Bashful! Be all the Beard you can Be! Because Beards are Better! enz. Pause vid at 13:00 för the perfect packaging pic for the Simonator.

[@HylianSpeaker]

Simon should absolutely do a nature channel but in the style of the cold read, simply so I can see how absolutely shocked he gets with how weird biology and nature can get.

[@alisonmiller4636]

I would love it as a cold read show.

[@krislochlan5366]

Oh gods yes. Bizzare fucking animal adaptations. SIMON. YOU HAVE ANOTHER CHANNEL TO START

[@xplayja4910]

I’ll drink to that🤘🍻

[@briannap6733]

Yes please omg

[@jirvine00]

Definitely! Let's see how much the writers can shock him

[@skilledwarman]

Backing the idea that Simon should do the nature channel in the cold read/less in character format. Just know it will be entertaining to see his brain melt

[@andrewbrundin6953]

Yeah let’s just add his 30th channel to the list 🙄

[@skilledwarman]

@@andrewbrundin6953 32nd*

[@Dulcissimus89]

I second this motion❤

[@rodepet]

To make things worse, I hope the writers include stuff that influences nature. Like politics or rewilding projects. Why does stuff or doesn't stuff work

[@zombiechicken7114]

I feel like zefrank has cornered the market but I'd be curious on simons take I must admit!! Especially as I immediately got praying mantis from his description!

[@PanzerMan332]

My dude John survived stepping on a land mine with only minor injuries, only to later survive a car bombing. Dude's got +10 explosive damage resistance.

[@arifhossain9751]

Dude picked up the "Hit the Deck" perk from Fallout New Vegas

[@jimmccauley9099]

Big yes to a nature channel. See Simon go head to head with Ze Frank. Definitely give Simon's writers some healthy competition.

[@listerineclean343]

Is Frank a nature channel though, or a comedy channel that uses biology facts for laughs? I love them both, which is why I don’t think they would compete.

[@flboy85]

I gotta say Casual Geographic is the king of animal related channels

[@jimmccauley9099]

Big shout to both channels. I get to learn and smile at the same time. Only two nature channels l watch. Just curious to see if Simon's writers or Simon himself could keep up. All his podcasts (behind a mic) have him making off script comments attempting humor and doing a decent job. Ze Frank, different level.

[@dlo111]

Ze Frank is ace, he'd be very hard to beat, just ask Gerry.😅

[@jimmccauley9099]

Poor Jerry, he seems to catch hell for everything. Wrong pictures, diagrams or punctuation, it's Jerry's fault. Hahahahaha!

[@JasonHutchinson64]

Simon, you (and the writers you have locked up in your basement) should absolutely make a nature channel. Please please please.

[@pinkbubblesnake]

There could be an april fools episode of him narrating some of his writers in their natural habitat

[@gennystout8952]

Or he could do a April's fool's day video with a CC that his writers write about him 😂😂😂😂

[@Amcangrrl]

Yes! But needs to be in the CC format…cold read with commentary. I totally want to see Simon spit out his coffee and add a tangent when he reads that ducks have corkscrew shaped nether-regions. Casual Creatures perhaps?

[@Draygarth]

John Green just heard you think that tuberculosis isn't a problem today and is heading for your location with a full presentation.🤣

[@graygreysangui]

My exact thought too. "Oh Simon, John Green is grabbing his suit and will arrive at your studio promptly. Good luck with the collab."

[@erikawalata1741]

It's still a problem, but it is much more treatable so it's less deadly

[@Takillama]

There was a breakout of it when I was putting my son in middle school. We had to wait 6 or 8 weeks and he had to be tested many times and get shots and it was an ordeal. Every kid in the school district had to do it.

[@SuzysRedStripes]

LOL

[@mosisusasu9205]

Damn, John Gentry really invested all of his stat points into blast resistance to survive both the mine and the car bomb.

[@FM60260]

The idea of a nature channel sounds interesting, give it a shot

[@jenniferwalker2940]

I think Simon needs to add a nature channel to his repertoire. I'd totally watch it. Tangents would be welcome.

[@donvillejames761]

Grasshopper and Venus flytrap combined is something I will never be able to unsee with the praying mantis now

[@BlazinMason]

Hopping Venus grass trap😊

[@Narangarath]

​@@AdamOBrien29 You realize being "the next X" doesn't necessarily mean sounding or looking like the predecessor and is more of a "filling the same niche" kind of thing?

[@bowathand]

I would love to see a dangerous creatures channel. Species, toxicology, human biology. The possibilities for simon ballsing up pronunciation is endless

[@SnuSnuDungeon]

Now Siri is giving Simon the cold sholder😂 The war between them escelates and I'm here for it

[@kieldavis2398]

Simon we need that nature channel, itll replace the lack of geographics

[@theloverlyladylo9158]

He has one, it’s called Places!

[@an0mndr]

We need an animagraphics

[@GrievousReborn]

He made a Geographics replacement called places what he needs is a biographics replacement Channel called people

[@an0mndr]

@GrievousReborn how about instead of recycling channel ideas, he could actually start a channel on something new, like animals

[@johnm8224]

I'd definitely be interested in a "cold-read" nature channel!

[@imboredidid1]

John Gentry: survived a landmine, survived poisoning, survived a car bomb... LEGEND!

[@kishna14]

I'd love a nature show WITH your rants and commentary. it would be grand to hear what you have to say about cute little otters 😅

[@easybreezy4559]

yeah otters are the devil lol

[@Twelveinchpianist]

I 100% agree with this idea. I would subscribe to that in a heartbeat. Mothernature with a sarcastic twist...

Oh, yes please.

[@RavenPeake]

​@@Twelveinchpianistin the meantime, casual geographic is fun.

That wouldn't work... every animal featured would be Australian.

[@nickmiller8131]

Judging by the comments it sounds like we’re gonna get a Simon nature channel in the near future. Take this as my vote!

[@Sun-resa]

I would LOVE a nature channel narrated by Simon-- And I agree with the earlier suggestion that he should continue the "cold read " format about crazy things in nature!

[@Bethgael]

NGL. This one made me cry. Poor Michael. I have 5 sons and a daughter, adults all, and I just can't fathom it.

[@GuilhermeGuidugli]

I got so sad when Simon was talking about how the only thing he wanted was to make his mama proud. RIP Michael.

[@trevorsolomon9304]

He said “she played Black Widow in the Superman movies” 😂 That’s crazyyy😂😂😂😂

[@VoodooAngel63]

Yeeeeaaaaahhhhh

[@GiantPetRat]

I'm not a diehard fan of any of the superhero franchises, but that line got one of the biggest laughs from me ngl.

[@VoodooAngel63]

@GiantPetRat yeah, that was just kind of wrong in a number of ways.

[@calebbean1384]

The praying mantis description was good enough I guessed it ha

[@mechengr1731]

The image was also so unsettling lol

[@_MaryRose_]

Yes! A Simon "Damn nature, you're scary!" would absolutely be something I'd watch 👍

[@daftirishmarej1827]

That's a mug I'd buy!!

[@RainbowTheSnail]

Yes please to a nature channel. But definitely in a cold read style like these so we can learn about all the weird and wonderful animals and creatures together 💗

[@Amethystar]

More writers to the basement!

[@locklearlumbee83]

Nature Channel...YES!!!! You are the only voice that could ever replace Davis Attenborough IMO.

[@stephenadams2035]

Random info here the guy john that survived this crazy woman was actually my next door neighbor when I was growing up. None of us knew about this part his life till a crime show did a special on her in the late 1990s

[@dilworm]

A combination of a grasshopper and Venus Flytrap.......I love it! I want some of dat new Factboy Kush! lol

The writing of Michael’s passing put a lump in my throat; beautifully written, while tragic and graphic of course

[@stephanybrown3226]

Simon doing a nature style docu/video series? Heck I'll start writing scripts for free if that's the case! But yes, that would do very well. Mahaps a little prehistoric action as well? 👀

Not necessarily. Have you seen Casual Geographic? The phrase "Nature can be cruel" applies often.

[@Yamp44]

[@jonnyhousewife9806]

As a Spanish teacher, I must say... "Buenoano" doesn't mean "Good year". That would be "Buenaño". "Buenoano", while grammatically incorrect, actually more like "Good asshole" .

[@grimcatmysteries8841]

So Simon's been calling her an @$$hole the whole time. That's hilarious 😂

[@bobbyray5874]

Fits

[@GiantPetRat]

Actually, it'd be more correct if it were "Buenano", or "Anobueno". Buenoano" strikes me as Italian, personally, but sometimes it's kind of useless to try and get meaning out of last names when half the time they're simply based on locations, whose etymology can go back centuries and thus be an enigma to the average speaker of said language.

[@VoodooAngel63]

@grimcatmysteries8841 Yes, but Simon is correct. Judy did spell her name Buenoano,not Buenoaño. She called herself good anus.

[@sydneyj7560]

Yes, please to the nature channel. We love all of your channels and would love that too. FYI - my ex-husband got a black widow spider bite in the thigh. The entire front of his thigh turned black - the muscle under the flesh. It was like a black bruise. and he limped for awhile. He was treated for it right away. He fully recovered, but that was frightening to see while he was recovering.

Hi Simon! YES, my dear fellow, yes your life should be this good. All the blessings to you and your family, and your crew, now and always. Thank you for these episodes, no matter how bloody grim they get.

[@raquellofstedt9713]

Simon, I remember being on a death watch for my uncle who died of complications of long term alchoholism, one of those was TB. He was treated, but if your immune system is shot, it doesn´t always help as much as it should. This was the seventies. Add the reason for why the use of so many antibiotics in the dairy/meat industry started: there is not only history of cattle carying TB, but also related deseases with similar results in people. My mother, died 2017, with an encapsulated cyst from one of these TB related diseases, probably contracted from growing up around cattle in the 30´s and 40´s. This didn´t kill her. But it was there. TB has also still been here all the time.

[@Baldevi]

Oh, yes, Simon reading for a nature Channel would be amazing and fun! Doo Eet!

Sometimes I fall into the trap of thinking Simon is a super intellectual and then I hear his intro to videos like this and I'm reminded that he's just human.

[@eddardstark5034]

Simon, please do a nature channel, Sir David Attenborough is very old and someone will need to pick up the torch when he shuffles off his mortal coil.

[@Jamesadoodle]

Honestly a Casual Criminalist or Decoding The Unknown style nature channel could be fantastic. Something that's at least an in depth look on animals and the crazy stuff they can do and Simon is able to react naturally like he does here is something I would watch.

[@kimslone5185]

Black widow bites can be deadly to children and elderly people. Mid range adults will get sick and some spider bites cause a lesion that takes more than a year to heal, with some tissue necrosis.

[@TitularHeroine]

Yes. I've had spider bites that I suspect were brown recluse, and was given antibiotics (necrotizing bacteria in their bites). Though I was never in any real danger apparently, the wounds were horrifying.

[@SolaScientia]

My sister's boyfriend she had back many years ago got bit by a brown recluse. It took it months to properly heal since the flesh kept just rotting and I think it was resistant to the treatments they were using at the time. I saw him recently (he's now dating a coworker and my sister is also still friends with him even decades later) and apparently he still has a scar from that bite. I love spiders, but I'd rather not get bitten by any of them that's for sure.

[@dawnt6791]

My husband was bitten by a black widow on one of his heels a few months ago. Lots of pain and swelling, wicked headache that lasted days, and a fever. NOT a happy man. Thankfully he didn't end up with necrosis. Truly grateful for that. A friend of mine dealt with that after a brown recluse bite. It was nasty and painful.

[@olinband8369]

Ooooo a nature channel would be choice

[@jamesb695]

[@OlyChickenGuy]

Hey Simon, nature-nerd, here, and though I was silently crying through your whole mantis tangent, I would LOVE to see a nature channel hosted by you, especially of this style! Brain Blaze style might be even better, especially with how popular "relateable nature" channels have become, like Casual Geographic, ZeFrank, or Lindsay Nikole.

[@Annie_Annie__]

Quanah, Texas is pronounced “kwan-uh”. At least, that’s how I’ve heard it said. It’s about as close to the middle of nowhere as you can get. The closest cities are Wichita Falls and Abilene and those are 1 hour and 2 hours away respectively. The closest major city is Fort Worth and that’s 3 hours away. The closest town that I know of to Quanah is about 30 minutes away. Not only is it fairly isolated, but the landscape can be brutal. In the summer it’s frequently over 100°F/38°C and humid, with little rain to break the heat. In the winter it’s not as cold as in some parts of the US, but it gets below freezing, sometimes down in to the teens F (~ -10°C), is snowy, icy, and incredibly windy. The landscape is flat as you can imagine. I don’t think it would be a pleasant place to live, but maybe some people like it.

I say a Simon-led nature channel is an excellent idea. If you give it a chance, I think you should do the cold read format, as your personality pops when you do those, and considering that your fans love your on-screen persona, a lax nature show, covering the weird and strange habits if our worlds most interesting animals might do very well. You could cover less heard of or the most misunderstood creatures on our beautiful and interesting world!
