hi Mikey I know you won’t see this but I just wanna say thank you for making these videos. I suffer from several mental illnesses and the virus makes it hard for me to afford my usual medication. Whenever I have a panic attack or break down i rewatch your videos and they always help me feel a bit better despite the circumstances. I appreciate your content a lot man.

[@D-me-dream-smp]

I know this is late but you are part of a world wide fan club. This is similar to what mukbang was intended for - people who were alone would eat while on video chat to recreate “sharing a meal”. I feel like Mikes presentation really makes you feel like you are sharing the experience.
