SH*T SHOW - PALOOZA | Skooliepalooza 2024 | My Unhinged Thoughts Part 2

[@jimmymcdaniel979]

I’ve been going for 6 years. Never had a single complaint. Them switching the dates was what got me. The new days are 15-20th we always go 20-28 and goes on for 2 weeks. I dislike the new owners. It’s naturally been in the same exact spot for 6 years. They tried to move the location but us og people were at quartzite. The more they keep switching things the more harm they cause. They need to just not mess with skoolie palooza the un gathering. It’s not a profitable event

[@myweeskoolie7504]

"We were here before u & we'll be here when ur gone" a famous quote that holds true. ♡

[@TheHippieatheart63]

You seem like a pretty decent guy that knows how to share the world and wants to be free doing it, I feel the same way you do. Safe travels brother.

[@petesfeeder]

Love it brother. I've never been because I assumed it would turn just like burningman. If you're ever in Washington you're welcome at De Aspen Haven. Much love Be well Be blessed Be free

[@justagirlsd3000]

5:26 we have The Joybus! We were late when we arrived so when we got kicked out we were at the entrance and got out ahead of the swarm😂. Unfortunately my husband had a stroke on NYE and we didn't make it😭. It looks less windy this year.

[@usashaz]

Never been to the schoolie event, all events become a logistical nightmare once there are a bunch of people involved. Well administered ones are hard to come by, demand for a fun experience always outstrips the supply of competent people to handle the logistics needed to provide it. Being staff at events is work, and work gets handled differently depending on the competency of who's handling it. People get $'s in their eyes and it's all over. It's miraculous we can have something crazy like burning man even happen, that's a real exercise in temporary community. It's like a boondoggle matrix to be the initiator, and the long tail of what needs to be done always ends with the guy at the end of the parade sweeping up like at the end of that cartoon Mr. Peabody and Sherman. Ery'body needs ery'thing for those permits! I like your live & let live ethos.

[@dsprg]

Look at burningman ten years ago, to now...."corporate" greed is rampant nowadays...and it cuts the feelings of a lifeful experience in lieu of a taxed/regulated dictatorship's view..

[@usashaz]

@@dsprg I saw that great viral marketing they had last year, all that mud gave them more press time than anyone could buy... lol

[@rosstaylor3927]

Paul, in MY opinion you never said anything offensive or intrusive. Keep doing you. You’re a good guy who believes in most the same fundamentals as myself and possibly most people out there. Can you be abrasive? Absolutely, we all can abrasive. I’ve been told I’m multi expletives. People can come across abrasive especially when it comes to something you are passionate about. Keep being you! Keep fighting for what you believe in even if it’s not what I believe. Like you said exercise your rights. PS Your grey beard is coming in nice. Mad love for ya!

[@stephenhall5421]

Agreed - stay free; but don’t negatively impact others…

[@ArizonaTraveler]

agree 100% with both videos, miss catching your random live streams, peace be upon you and the miss's

[@jm4672]

PAUL YOU ARE SO RIGHT IF EVERBODY WIULD DO LIKE U DO EVERBO F Y WOULD BE HAPPY AS HELL

[@scottmcfarland2149]

Amen brother!!

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

I love how you put the travel footage in the corner while you talk to the camera, that's cool

[@PaulBarger]

I have never tried that before. I was worry it might be to distracting. Next time i do it, I will make the footage match so that you just see my footage as its happening.

[@NomadMoto]

See you there man. 🏴‍☠️🥷 ✌️

[@CasaNowhere]

I met you at schoolie last year. We talked about freedom vs the man. I agree with you 100% and especially on how dumb this drama w people trying to exert control is. It's dicey enough without the drama. I hope it goes well though! Maybe I will run into you again! ✌️

[@mattsonnek8509]

Great video Paul, thanks!

[@anybodyoutthere3208]

How many buses actually go to this event?

[@PaulBarger]

A lot! I think last year was around 400 actual buses

[@elementgypsy]

Right on dude!

[@cami-loo108]

Unfortunately, when you get a lot of people together, people act like idiots. Crapping on the ground, leaving trash, getting wasted and acting dumb etc

[@JayDubber]

I heard from an inside source that some silicon valley tech bro "bought" the name, isn't a vanner and is trying to profit of it... #handleyourpoop

[@markwolf6092]

Happy New Year brother hopefully I’ll see you there 🥰🍻🌵🎉👍

[@3dandyrandy3]

I saw on one of Nikki delventhal videos that this guy suggested she start a youtube channel. Now she has over 760,000 subs and must be making 11,000 to 20,000 a month. All while living in a 4x4 Sprinter.

[@PaulBarger]

He sounds like a brilliant (and handsome) man.

[@3dandyrandy3]

@PaulBarger He also gives great suggestit's to pretty young women. I miss da Bread Truck. The school bus should be nice tho.

[@kayakchrispy]

Do you need a permit to protest … gather to protest

[@ricksumner5088]

talk brother! Stay free!

[@HansMartinØvre]

Hey Paul, and happy new year. This days, you will never find any government world wide that will let their people live in freedom. To them, freedom are a dangerous thing, so they chains you down with a ton of laws and regulations. Also here in my own country, Norway.

[@jm4672]

LOVE YOU PAUL .LOVE UR WAYS BECAUSE THERE MINE TO

[@chrislewis6488]

We've all made it in a bucket at one time or another

[@PaulBarger]

Not the people in the cities!

[@3dandyrandy3]

​ @PaulBarger I'm in the city and a carpenter and definitely know how to use a five gallon bucket.

[@Wanna.Wander]

I wish i could go, still no title, vermont loophole ended july 1st💜 I agree, too much drama. Free as can be, yesss. Not Parker.

[@wolco003]

I member 🍇

[@randywilson6869]

People ruin their own thing. Mr Wells was a happy camper but greed took over with him and now he says he like being alone but I bet he is around people all the time

[@aaronrobertson8598]

First and last time this year. Screw Devin and his Pirate bus blasting music till the sun comes up annoying everyone. I mean nobody was even dancing there past 2am but Captain Whack Sparrow had to keep pissing everyone off.

[@NomadTail]

Rainbow does just fine without permits

[@PaulBarger]

You know why?? They change locations frequently and do not try to capitalize on their gatherings. But I've never been to one. I probably would have but you can't find locations online easily... and that's smart!!!!

[@SmoothOperator150]

Nothing you’ve said seems unreasonable or offensive… people always have to complain about something… 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@timothyallbritton1961]

Here is the problem with everything you said in Part 1. Everything you said is common sense. Not everyone has common sense. People without common sense like arguing with people with common sense. Great video!

[@living2ndchildhood598]

My personal views are the same as yours regarding personal freedom & responsibility.

[@grampshavingfun3420]

Just do you

[@teufeldritch]

7:25 What? You want be free? You want to be happy? That is not allowed! Federal regulation 11:22-33.44 clearly states "All citizens shall be living the most unfulfilling life as possible & if they refuse to live an unfulfilling life they will be forced to do so."

[@PaulBarger]

bahahaha, i forgot about that

[@drillsergeant623]

Weird that you’re all about freedom but you’re saying we should need permits. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@PaulBarger]

You missed the point! I’m saying I don’t want a permit. This company that is taking over is forcing it. I want an unorganized event. No permit needed.

[@cintroberts6614]

It is a creative place and we love the bus builds. We learn a lot about it. You might be to old for it. It's a younger generation gathering.
