Is the Future Going to Be Horrible? - A Conversation with Colin

[@Cevans1992]

Colin is the fucking man dude, Colin and Greg together awesome combination, god how I miss this. Colins departure from Kinda Funny will always be nothing short of a travesty

[@jacobpro_]

The rest of the guys got way too libtard for him.

[@Cevans1992]

I've been staring at my phone since 7am waiting for this. Perfect way to start my day before classes. Love you guys! Y'all are the reason I use the internet.

[@ArturPacholec]

Hello from the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Those stocks are sure going down!

[@AjeetSingh-lj3yb]

Coffee and Conversations w/ Colin is the correct way to start the day!

[@salmansmm1]

Greg and Colin you guys are my inspiration and it's because you guys work at what I assume is your dream job. I'm currently in med school and really feeling the pressure, but seeing you guys helps me get through it one day at a time. Wish me luck, BEYOND !!!

[@JyeSherwell]

GREAT conversation. Keep up the great work, guys!

[@idkcroze4420]

Love these videos Greg! Keep them coming BEYOND!

[@maxburton22]

came back for this. thanks!

[@socceraddict292]

CONTINUE THIS CONVERSATION.This was a great topic

[@youroneandonlyneighborhood8834]

Colin should have his own weekly podcast. Brilliant man.

[@GabeTheGuide]

Thanks I was checking to make sure...is frontline generally considered to make quality documentaries?

[@christopherp4147]

" your TV's are going to be cheaper" lol Gregg is awesome

[@getstung]

I always just wanna know why the handles on their fridge look crooked?

[@ZacharyBertone]

I would also really enjoy a part 2 this is a very interesting topic and Colin seems like he can talk about it for a long time part 2 please

[@Nathan17B]

This has been one of the most serious "A conversations with Colin" that i ever seen. You can look the face of Greg is like: omfg we're actually screwed. Great episode.Beyond!

[@NoahT491]

One of the best topics you've done so far

[@JamesNZ89]

Can we have a part 2 of this.. Feels like it ended a bit quickly

[@Crit-Chance]

*PORTILLO FOR PRESIDENT*

[@DC3893]

He's talking about the systems in place that afford security to those that do nothing to better their lives, while those who actually put effort forward are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

[@Karnalsyn]

Any chance you have a link to that frontline 4hrs interview Colin was talking about?

[@kindafunny]

Sorry I can't be in the comments this morning -- catching a plane back to SF.

[@MXAghost]

Love the video! Great work on it. I don't think that the future will be horrible but just different. The future would be more interconnected and that brings its own problems. Once again great work on these videos.

[@GRSG]

I agree with his comments. We were as close as we can get to a complete meltdown and people still say that we shouldn't regulate incompetent banking rules and bankers who chase their own tails.

[@nebulouswillie3167]

They should do an extended edition of this conversation

[@louisa1167]

I agree with you guys. Great video! You offered good insight into your thoughts and what is going on currently in the US and the world. I just did a paper on Foreign Aid and the state of our government and this video offered great insight into glaring issues in this country. Thanks and BEYOND!

[@deanastley]

Does anyone know what the Front Line show Colin talked about ?

[@PrimeG1984]

I don't think people don't realize we're screwed, I think they are just choosing to ignore it like it isn't there.

[@StuartHerrington]

I'm glad someone finally said it.

[@MuiltiLightRider]

Does anyone have a link to the video Colin was talking about?

[@Bojex]

What was that program that Colin mentioned that lasted 4 hours long? I would really like to see it if anyone knows the name. I can't properly hear what he says :(

[@Parallelocam]

As a resident Long Islander and fan of everything you two do, my topic request would be "What are the main differences in lifestyle between New York and California"

[@ElizabethBrewin]

Portillo makes every video :) seeing him perched on your lap is so nice

[@aaronjg77]

I'm drinkin' it up at a Bar now so haven't had the chance to watch this but I like how you used the Jetsons as the pic for the Video. I'm looking forward to seeing my request for a conversation about Obamacare!! I'm sure Colin has a lot to say... Lol

[@joevoyles2005]

Good luck with the flight Greg and be safe!

[@errod88]

This was great conversation with Colin

[@w0joshcbrln0w]

It is raining outside, I had to check twice if the thunder was part of the video.

[@ChaossX77]

Colins talk is the song from Muse. Good stuff.

[@Jamtoonz]

In 2008, my dad went two months without a job. :(

[@TheWhyysoserious]

Colin's spot on here. Fantastic topic Greg.

[@GuardSilent]

I have so much respect for you two because of this video

[@maelstrom167]

My question: where and/or who does the gold from the cash 4 gold and similar businesses go to?

[@MrTurkan26]

I love when Colin had the scary conversations, they're the best ones

[@MrJustFalcon]

Lol greg at the end "So what the fuck do we do" lol

[@GabeTheGuide]

Our economy and our entire bureaucratic structure is so ridiculously complex even "experts" would shrug and say we're fucked.

[@alanrm]

This was one of my favorite conversations. I wish I could join in and tell Colin about my experiences here in Argentina, where our society collapsed in 2001, they also took the money from our bank accounts, we had hyperinflation in 1989, and the situation with our government giving money and free shit to people lead to currently almost half of the population of Buenos Aires getting or wanting some part of that money.

[@rjzp]

This was a great topic. :)

[@mistersparrow]

This conversation was very depressing. I graduated college in 2008 and have since been spinning slowly down the toilet of life.

[@maxburton22]

i wanna know what the first two cards said

[@joevictor53]

What's that thing in Colin's glass?

[@mikeval7096]

great topic

[@MrZacDavid]

"So what the fuck do we do" omfg I laughed so hard when Colin just shrugged after that because its true, there is nothing we can do!

[@Cheebs1313]

I love listening to this because colin can actually lead an intelligent conversation.

[@ToniSkit]

Ok social security can´t work, does it work in the UK?

[@jamiehand1859]

I'd like to hear Colin talk more about the 2008 financial crisis, his views on it are fascinating

[@TheLastProphet11]

Should have kept it going for at least 5 more min shut a good CWC... What is the frontline episode? I wanna watch it

[@Karnalsyn]

thanks

[@Afroninjaa1458]

Portillo is adorable its hard not to look at him lol

[@TheWakis5]

love this vidio, i have talked about these things in class here in norway to. the only diffrense is that we here in norway have the economy and oil to maintain it.

[@jabberart]

How Colin's trip to TGS went and the state of the Japanese gaming industry. Is it still viable?

[@joevictor53]

What's Colin's opinion on Phonebloks and does he think it can work?

[@SuperJonny7]

"So what the fuck do we do!?" My thoughts exactly Greg.

[@williambell6530]

What's your stance on the situation in Syria?

[@MikeyLodato]

Here's a good question- why does Colin prefer playstation? As a PS fan I've always wondered

[@MJTi847]

It seems that Colin knows his stuff. A good conversation.

[@curran63]

There's a reason one of the most popular films this decade is called the Hangover. Welcome to the hangover people.

[@acrazyguy14]

That was actually pretty intense.

[@Deka4891]

Why don't we have hoverboards yet?!!

[@flames2835]

exactly on the 10 min mark

[@mrmynameisryan]

No checkered shirt :(

[@allograndma12]

I believe the Frontline episodes Colin is talking about are called: Money, Power & Wall street. BEYOND!

[@kshitijarora237]

Time for the apocalypse Colin. Let it roll.

[@florindopandolfi85]

Future Topic of Conversation with Colin: Only taxing purchasable goods, how much better would/ could our society be? Could this type of taxation eliminate the national debt? Also Love this and gregway keep up the good work guys!!! Beyond!!!

[@MrZacDavid]

And the screen prompt of "fuck you @The_Rage_Mage!" Had me rolling

[@samalex91]

So... WHAT DO WE DO?!

[@FCB713]

BEYOND TO YOU GREG! Good morning, how are you today?

[@ChrisSimpsonFilms]

Topic for Colin: Thoughts on Mixed Martial Arts/UFC

[@SirHansMemling]

Is Colin an Austrian (Economist)?

[@EmersonArtwork]

Whew - deep topic this time! Lets get Colin to run for president to turn things around.

[@antoniolara7320]

collin always have the best arguments, collin what you think about the nsa?

[@daniabouhamad9358]

We currently are going an apocalyptic phase, as in there are a lot of apocalyptic books, movies...What do you think could be next?

[@lanceeberly5213]

His cup says "Got Milk?" but it's filled with water...

[@speedycerv]

That DOG.... will keep that toy away from you.

[@StrangeFolk520]

I know this video is old, and I should preface this by saying that I respect Colin's opinions on many things, and I'm aware that he's been making a concerted effort to be less combative with random people on the internet. All that being said, goddamn it's infuriating to hear him misdiagnose the primary issues in American society. Somehow the poor and disenfranchised are more to blame for our banking collapse than the incredibly irresponsible, ungodly wealthy bankers? What?? I'd love to have a conversation with Colin one day where some of these statements are given the opposition and counter arguments that they deserve.

[@BirdieDev]

+Forrest Messer He never said that poor people are at fault for 2008.

[@woodrowjang]

Just finished money power wall street! Amazing 4 part series!

[@PieBlaCon]

Military spending is out of control, but the answer isn't getting the gov more involved in education and giving more money to the "needy." American "poverty" is not real poverty. Having a cell phone, TV, and cable is not being poor.

[@AlanCampbellFilm]

Hey Greg, I know you're not cruising around in the comments, but if you do read this, I highly recommend the book 'Brave New World' by Adolphous Huxley. It basically paints a picture of what the future will be like, and the new society the forms around it. It's pretty comparable to George Orwells '1984', but while that book took big liberties for the sake of metaphors, 'Brave New World' feels more realistic and actually gives us a reality that we may experience soon.

[@chrystolis]

I believe there's an Oreo logo on the back that has a white back to it.

[@vvanishv02]

I love this conversation with Colin, I wanted to know about his thoughts on the debt ceiling but he talked about it. My suggestion is Conversation with Colin: Elizabeth Warren and her policies. (She is pro "sue the bankers for the 2008 collapse")

[@RememberThisOne]

Greg can you make a video with portillo in your lap on a spinning chair, wearing an eyepatch and say i will release my lizard man and conquer the world

[@Raptors111291]

Someone remind me what party was the president apart of when we almost had this major "collapse". =)

[@saifur96]

MAN! Colin is such a wise guy!

[@milesr6226]

They do? I haven't experienced that.

[@sbatista2979]

I think the conversation topic was fantastic but not enough for 10 minutes, this conversation couldve been a lot longer bc it is a topic on many people's minds. explore more of this and add a part two, plz and thanks beyond!

[@flames2835]

shit that last part was emotional

[@VundalI]

You can tell Greg learned a lot : hes pissed off by the end of the video

[@MrHamoman]

Colin is a smart dude! Agree agree agree

[@Envy_me94]

More on this topic

[@alaskannut5352]

I want to know what he thinks about the IRS

[@CaptainHamsome]

I would love to just hear colin talk more about the economic problems and the U.S. government

[@MattNicassio]

House of cards = Federal Reserve Bank Economy = Relies on continual growth (needs to be able to go flat and be sustainable) Space Exploration = Great for sparking innovation and interest (in science and education) This Conversation = A great one! What we do = Start with reinstating the Gold Standard so our money IS worth something
