you all probably dont give a damn but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!

[@kasondario3930]

@Brooks Tyler Instablaster :)

[@brookstyler3666]

@Kason Dario Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@brookstyler3666]

@Kason Dario it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much you saved my ass :D

[@kasondario3930]

@Brooks Tyler happy to help :)

[@kinghani]

Tim is my favourite person. 6 bags of popcorn

[@StickyFancy]

one word man That WOULD be nice, but it only goes up to five. I'm going to give him five bags, and maybe a little pair of green shoes

[@underoath41148]

@@StickyFancy lol

[@MostlyDrew]

and two cups of soda

[@graingerous16]

Well, the highest score is 5 bags of popcorn, so I'm going to give him 5 bags of popcorn

[@PuckeredMeatball]

That is more bags of popcorn than you can fit into an dumped-out Oscars gift bag.

[@brantub]

Seeing Tim being sincere and normal in an interview still weirds me out.

[@nak3dxsnake]

is this candid tim?

[@whateverangeltaken]

I think he only does shenanigans with Eric in interviews

[@Disasterina]

I agree! He's even being nice!

[@BigBewtieHoles]

tim would probably hate you for even suggesting he was being nice

[@nathanshabazz6300]

you think that's weird? look up the story about him getting stabbed.

[@Spazticspaz]

The real Tim is such a pure soul. So open about his ideas and thoughts!

[@fiiive2the5ix]

lol whats wrong with adult swim you nut?

[@trceb]

Jay Cee Productions so wait are you being sarcastic or is that how you feel?

[@fiiive2the5ix]

Written In Red Dreams I feel like you're upset about this.... need to talk?

[@fiiive2the5ix]

Written In Red Dreams always find it weird when people want to see other people fail just because they disagree with the message / humor. I hate the big bang theory but I don't give a fuck if they make billions or cents. isn't that what the free market is about anyway?

[@Forkliftdance]

Written In Red Dreams are you upset that one shitty show got kicked off adult swim? I forget the name.

[@kenneld]

"how old are your kids now?" "i have no idea."

[@yahwehvii6059]

kenneld It's just speculation but I believe he was taking a stab at Alex Jones over the recent custody hearings he had to deal with in which he forgot basic information about his two children.

[@chrisvoa]

He’s a pretty private dude when it comes to his family life. I’m surprised he mentioned them at all.

[@cubeincubes]

This guy sucks at questions

[@primatein]

I'm someone who really has seen everything Tim has done and I have watched every interview I have ever been able to find and I am shocked at what I just watched. Not only did Tim give a completely straight interview, but he covered everything from his style of comedy to stories from behind the curtain of Tim & Eric. All those people who have never "gotten" Tim & Eric and think it's "dumb"/not funny need to watch this. He explains what the Awesome Show's style was about and how everything was always intentional and therefore difficult and professional.

[@Crunch_Buttsteak]

Jake Matthews Listen to his Marc Maron WTF podcast

[@checkmarkdatter1785]

& Duncan Trussell Family Hour Podcast. Far from the first time hearing Tim in this context

[@LemonTree9280]

AGREED!!!those early interviews can be frustrating...this and the H3 podcast are the 2 best ive seen

[@scottmcrae3355]

Agree. Also, people who think that he is “dumb” and “not funny” might possibly be dumb but are most definitely not funny themselves.

[@ledzep369]

Thoughts and prayers to Tom Cruise Heidecker Jr.

[@ytgytgy]

I miss you son you aint comin back

[@hankworden3850]

The son of Dr Luther San....R.I.P.

[@OmegaRedFan]

Ya blew it Tom

[@alamodylla]

I like how no matter how honest Tim and co. are in their interviews, they never acknowledge that Brule is played by John C. Riley

[@ooferrell]

New too dude...its so awesome and the fact that Gregg is Neil hamburger..its 😎. Never saw Gregg turkington / Neil hamburger live or 10 live but I did get to see Lady David liebe Hart and he's such a cool person that he pretty much told me after I saw that I saw him in how that whole situation worked out

[@jackmace6531]

@Nick West lol

[@wytemagic08]

BRULE IS WHAT!?!?

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

Docker Sleeve Drool are gifted. He. Smart. He is a smart man. For your health!

[@tylermoulton7294]

They definitely acknowledge it but I feel ya

[@HarrisonsFord]

I was expecting an interview about Decker: Unclassified, instead I got Decker: Unsealed. Your business needs to update their VHS labeling system to something less confusing!

[@toweringsequoias1590]

with Gregg Turkington involved in the production, I wouldn't question the VHS labelling system.

[@noahthiel1448]

Beef Supreme like the KCS, Kington Coding System, we learned about that in grade school I think

[@ADT2695]

+Beef Supreme. Wow. That's funny, parrot.

[@HarrisonsFord]

Why are you always so upset with me?

[@ADT2695]

+Beef Supreme. I don't even know you beyond my reply I had just made. Acting like you're in on it is just so annoying and trite. It's everywhere on the 'On Cinema, At the Cinema' videos. Everybody has these interconnected monologues for every video. That's all.

[@MajorPhilGraves]

Nobody makes me laugh as much as Tim Heidecker. Thanks for Awesome Show, Decker, and On Cinema!

[@Clipeuh]

Gregg Turkington is really the mastermind behind On Cinema, he is the soul of the show. Tim is reckless.

[@Skindoggiedog]

Don't forget Dekkar!!!

[@Clipeuh]

Skindoggiedog dont forget popcorn classics and on cinema on location!

[@unabridgedbarker]

not cool jimmy

[@nickytoothless]

that phone call was just sooo perfect lmao

[@MovieManMark]

Aww, this is the first time I've heard him talk about behind the scenes of On Cinema. It's kinda like the magic is gone... actually na, it's still hilarious.

[@trceb]

Movie Man Mark I think I might agree if i was still on an earlier season but with all the shit that went down, in kinda glad to get a little insight on what is going through his head.

[@MovieManMark]

Cebby That's true, it just keeps getting crazier and crazier 😂

[@chrisbooker88]

tim is breaking character because the world and usa has literally became surreal. reality is now more over the top than parody

[@trceb]

Chris Booker lol Yup that sums it up.

[@hockyjocky4]

Chris Booker I love your comment, it is brilliant and true

[@Crunch_Buttsteak]

Chris Booker I'm gonna kick your ass Booker! P.S. Booger more like it.

[@simonyricools]

"Literally surreal"? That doesn't mean anything.

[@Arkain89]

@Fui Gebhardt1 considering tim is playing some incredibly moronic "true patrician" type of american imperialist, yeah, his parody has been exceeded by actual idiots that exist. and vote.

[@loganl.5685]

The most normal I've seen him in an interview

[@gelatinskeleton8745]

I sincerely love when Tim and/or Eric talk about their work while not in character.

[@Dr_B.J_Fett]

Great interviewer, great questions. Really made Tim come out of his shell. 10/10 great job

[@Jasonhoods]

I like the way Greg turns his entire body instead of just his head when he looks at Tim. On Cinema is great. When Tim says his problem has been evacuated I lost it. My favorite part ever is on the second annual Oscar special when Mark Proksch was impersonating one of the three stooges and says "I died in 1975." Immediately followed by BOOOING.

[@lordmortimer8055]

I think Gregg has arthritis in his neck very sad

[@brinealexvedderjenkinspatt8064]

Have to say I find normal Tim Heidecker rather nice and kind. Please don't get me wrong I love the Tim and Eric destroying interviewers but this was actually very interesting to watch great job Tim

[@johngalantini6910]

So rare to hear the 'real' Tim out of character. What a treat!

[@BouncingSoul1987]

Pretty refreshing to see Tim not in character and just being himself during this interview.

[@jonathanturkmusic]

Props to the interviewer, very well done. Interesting to hear Tim open up about his process.

[@andgalactus1]

Oh man, that ripped jeans problem. So relatable.

[@johnscott6083]

I only ever thought Decker was supposed to be Steve Seagal....but they never mentioned him. lol

[@benkata]

Bro, that phonecall was hilarious!

[@robertblackford1258]

This is a 6-bagger with 6 sodas And for greg I'll give it one VHS tape of the hobbit

[@ooDirtyMickoo]

Tim must really appreciate this interviewer to give him straight answers.

[@HedyNAt]

Wow I have never heard Tim out of character in an interview before! This was a treat!

[@hockyjocky4]

The host never had to deal with Tim at his finest (or lowest depending who you ask) but he really asked great questions and I’m glad because it’s what Tim Heidecker deserves - to have a smart well informed host if he’s going to be himself for once.

[@toweringsequoias1590]

32:00 tim how the fuck did you forget josh trank MY CAPTAIN.

[@harold105]

This interview is as long as the season of Decker Unclassified.

[@3bertface01]

love your work Tim, always will

[@chiefravioli9829]

I could listen to Tim talk all day.

[@drewtweedie7408]

33:50 So happy Tim mentioned Delocated. My favorite show on AS after On Cinema and Squidbillies.

[@FreddieElsom]

Just think of all the hours of entertainment Tim has given us through Adult Swim, it's really astounding.

[@LemonTree9280]

Tim Heidecker is my favorite human man

[@princesspeach985]

This was so fun and interesting

[@specops2739]

Ashley Reed couldn't agree more

[@bevrosity]

i just realized i need some green shoes.

[@chrisbooker88]

bevrosity same here u read my mind

[@BunnLilah]

I can't believe that he got a random spam call in the middle of this and how perfect it was.

[@LadySpace_888]

Amazingly refreshing, insightful interview!

[@JackSquat1]

I thought you were playing a bad steven segal.

[@hostsofmichael]

adblock ;)

[@JohnFrumFromAmerica]

Jack Squat the only type of Segal is bad Segal

[@LeevitDeBeeva]

Thank you Tim for shouting out Phil Ochs

[@transmitcoum2857]

Dr. Brule changing Brown's ( or was it really Brown 2!?)'s diaper is one of the best things ever shown on TV/Internet. Only thing better than that is all the children/little people? in Brown/Brown 2's care died. God BLESS Dr. Steve Brule

[@EmilyVioletMarie]

Tim is such a wonderful guy

[@cameronfielder4955]

I like this interviewer. He seems like a nice guy and he likes Tim and Eric so

[@yaboydolphin]

So what

[@philly2539]

Awesome interview. Great job.

[@Boaconstrictors]

i got blocked by Tim on twitter years ago and im still sad about it. Im sorry TIm!

[@TrueGritProductions]

Decker is the best character for Tim besides Spaghet, who deserves a cameo on Decker

[@Surv1ve_Thrive]

Spaghet could do some undercover surveillance for Decker and Kingslynn-ton. What could go wrong?

[@GiggleBlizzard]

He mentions Phil Ochs

[@anom3778]

omg the president thing was spot on

[@kyleschneider6810]

anom not really

[@matthieufernandez6871]

15:10 Does anyone know which movie Tim is talking about here? Joe Estevez has been in some primo bad movies and I'd love to see more.

[@consumergeekaloid4912]

Did you ever find out? Lol

[@thomasluczak2868]

Its so strange seeing heidecker out of character. its like your just waiting for him to start going berserk. he is a very talented young man.

[@davek7706]

It's 100% a Bobby DeNiro impression. Just watch the movie 'Heat' directed by Michael Mann. DeNiro can't stop mugging for the camera. It's a constant distraction in a pretty good movie. 5 bags of popcorn and two canned hams.

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

It's hard to know when the real Tim begins. I've watched him for so many years and he has never been ''straight''.

[@berryseinfeld6772]

This is like the most straight up I've seen him. Check out his WTF interview for some "realness," too.

[@beesnz1448]

TheRubberStudiosASMR he's a funny dude. He's being himself. It's hard to tell because he's so naturally funny. Yeeeeah dig

[@paclion9345]

The secret is he's always 'real'..he's always 'out of character,' even in character. Ya dangus

[@RectifiedFallacy]

He's being normal in this interview for sure. He seems sad though. I think the current political climate in the U.S might have contributed to him being more real lately. You can tell he's not happy with it. If Tim is being serious about what's going on in this country.. You know something is wrong lol.

[@LadySpace_888]

He's straight on "Office Hours" and normally isn't "on" when he'a alone. He's admitted he's more engaged when he has a creative partner to bounce off of. Plus, this guy's a great interviewer and has interviewed him before. He doesn't have a tendency to fuck around as much with respectable interviewers, understandably so.

[@chrise1485]

the handling of the call at the end fucking ruled

[@the_local_bigamist]

Tim Heidecker is brilliant.

[@Denature1020]

Main selling point on Decker = :-O Love this guy!

[@phrophannus]

Only now i realized Decker in from Heidecker, i'm so stupid.

[@shanes1325]

wow that phone call conversation was incredible

[@elieclaeys]

Nice shoutout to primitive technology!

[@Liltroublegrrl4eva]

my old boss is thai and used to answer the phone and say, "hullo" and i thought it was so cute

[@crimsonking212]

love the mention of primitive technologies

[@atiithe]

Awesome interview, good job!

[@MJ-cz1so]

lanoi arnold needs his royalties from absolutley NOW!

[@cornjeebus]

Glad he went into the Ant-Man vs Fantastic Four bit

[@michaelyagoobian2965]

damn that camera man hesitated when zooming in

[@renebrown7394]

Tim split his fucking pants...love it..lol...

[@Shake_Zula]

Is this interviewer related to Zach White from the Williams Street Swap Shop by any chance?

[@himbocialist]

I just got home from work today and my legs are chafed specifically because I was wearing jeans that have been unnoticeably split in the crotch for weeks, but i have them because they fit.

[@Boylieboyle]

totally worth it just for the Steve Brule impression at 5:12

[@ericclaptonsrobotpilot7276]

Glad Tim and Randy Newman’s relationship came full circle this past year.

[@comtruise3150]

as someone who has been confused about how OCATC actually works for years this was awesome

[@matureyoungman]

nobody ever: Man, I miss BUILD Series

[@Hatingmeisconforming]

best interview! make sure to stick around at the end when that dude calls him.

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

No idea the episodes had that many viewers. The youtube viewers are a tight group.

[@toweringsequoias1590]

exactly what i thought haha

[@EvilGregProductions]

Oh man, Tim being normal. This must be rare.

[@nathanreiber6819]

I hate the editors for not taking advantage of Tim's wonderful shoe setup.

[@adamgardiner5869]

That ambulance chaser at the end....awesome

[@sw4712]

this interviewer is doing a great job of dealing with tim

[@Skrenja]

Weird seeing Timmy serious

[@accordingtohonda4308]

"Who can I sue?"

[@mrweatherby]

I hope Tim is able to find all of his teeth and is able to sue those crooks at Wesson's Cooking Oil.

[@valuablesandwich]

I'm a Depp freak, myself

[@berryseinfeld6772]

Nice Jerky Boys ref 38:15

[@BilliamBillion]

"being in a studio making music with musicians who know what they're doing..." Every musician's dream lol

[@GeekTherapyRadio]

There was only one spoof and a goof, but I'm not complaining.

[@fishousecrets]

"I do have a bit of a problem turning off". Me too

[@jacketgreatorex]

36:32 For those who want to see the jester Tim.

[@guyguy3203]

Love Tim. He’s my new fave similar to trey Parker

[@Corvince]

"America's Birthday, June 4th" lmao

[@bearsleethere6996]

Great Job!

[@wattielookalike]

Title of this video is wrong, its "unsealed"

[@davidcampbell2256]

Tim’s awesome!!!

[@dandyandy2046]

Jason delivered my hot corn right before this video started. I still slapped him.

[@weirdloverwilde]

If he’s your employee you can strike him

[@slinkycubez20]

that's my chippy

[@DrMcFly28]

I reject this reality and substitute the On Cinema one.

[@tomashize]

Don't thank me jus thank the men and women who give their lives

[@DrejaRamone]

"But when I do it, it looks like an idiot" = Steven Seagal

[@maddiereyna2478]

5 bags and 12 bloated narcissists

[@chrisbbbbchris1]

dope shoes.

[@jangun]

Tim, why the green shoes? A new Shrek movie coming out?
