KobeJames23 He’s just pretentious now. He’s ashamed of the type of comedy he made for so many years at Smosh and doesn’t want his name to be associated with that anymore. That’s all he boils down to.

Wow, I love and respect Anthony so much. I really learned alot from his insights. I respect Ryan for exploring his experiences with youtube over the past 10 years. Many of us have been journeying here with Ryan since he started, and can have empathy for his experiences of being so young and just fooling around with Sean with how to be Ninja, Emo, Nerd, Gangsta, and following him throughout the boom of the industry, the explosion of his channel, and certainly have empathy for how much of his life and identity is in youtube - also the complexities of that, the pressure to constantly turn out content that feeds the algorithms, growing up and wanting to explore different creative voices, burn out from constant work, and also from having to express a brand that is an online persona that people adore and coping with fame, while still needing to continue on with his personal growth and maturing into an adult. Just a lot here with Ryan and Anthony - it really shows, and people can feel that it has been 10 years for you both in your voices, you can really feel 10 years in what you are sharing. Thanks a lot Ryan and Anthony for being yourselves here and for sharing the reality of your mega fame on youtube.

erm4gundr Well... Let me explain to you then. What I tried to say was, Smosh is not smosh anymore. Smosh is Ian and Anthony’s achievement and not the so called “others” achievement . They sold Smosh and Anthony became an actor instead of a creator. Before Smosh got sold, it had some very good and original content like the Pokémon videos, food battle videos and so on. It’s still so awesome to think, that Smosh has been on KZbin for so many years with the old videos which is what I meant with saying “How time flies”. Hope you get it now😄

Comedy doesn't always have to have a message. Sometimes I think it has a message too often. Learning and growing is great, but we need a break just to laugh every now and then. This is why the new generation is considered the most depressed generation, just constantly focusing on politics and trying not to offend people. In some ways, things are much better now, but the downside is how we no longer have genuine fun. I like that Anthony's videos have meaning now, but Jenna Marbles is a great example of making the world a better place without necessarily spreading a message. I actually think that brings people together more than trying to educate people all the time.

lmao, I was literally crying

[@morboed96]

The German channel he meant is "Kurzgesagt - In a nutshell".

[@JRHMC]

Moritz Bödeker Ohhhhhhhh

[@69fox]

No it was kurgduwbdiienndbt

[@YoloLollipops]

Im subscribed to that channel... It's lit

[@TinV]

Good timing

[@dangerx69]

Science is life

I feel the same way as Anthony, if content doesn't invoke something in me or educate me, it can be done using humor, but if it's shallow it's not for me. I have other means to entertain myself mindlessly, I don't need KZbin for that. I love being mindlessly entertained when I'm with a group of friends or something, but it's different then because it's spontaneous, it's not a conscious decision like on KZbin where you sit down and click something by choice.

[@KoolestDudeNTheBlock]

Most definitely! I feel the exact same way couldn't have said it better :D

[@gigiblack2231]

I love how mature and well-spoken he is. We need more creators on KZbin like him.

[@CHANELLEPLAYS]

Back in the old days I used to watch Smosh! I feel like now KZbin is so fake and full of competition... I have huge amounts of respect for Anthony and for this pod cast because these youtubers are being HONEST and giving their real viewpoints and opinions on the modern day KZbin platform. Brilliant!

[@freddiecracroft]

Eric Ericson it’s called ‘exaggeration’

[@albertmiller9888]

TheBlackTiger 22 because you can’t use sarcasm on this site

[@DendayCOD]

[@themantis8815]

"Ha ha you didnt notice i was the lamp,"

[@LinnieAlexis]

This was the best one yet! Can you get Jenna and Julien on the podcast?

[@aht6512]

yesssss

[@Cash0311]

Both of y’all were #1 at one point.

[@ndk4]

Anthony is like keanu reeves of youtube

[@Pecangaming]

Always valuable to learn from the past. I loved hearing these stories! I wish Anthony the best and hope hes happy now with his channel because I love what he's doing now!

[@theletterk]

i’m a simple man, i see anthony and ryan, i click

[@E.M.99.]

10:47 omg I remember watching that show, so crazy to think ryan could've been in that. Glad he kept his channel!

[@Obi_Topp]

@57:00 it's funny how Paco, Anthony, and Ryan talk about bad comments but there is david in the corner smiling 😁

[@gaboonviper101]

I love to see how Anthony and Ian have grown from Smosh and are so successful! I know Ian is still apart of it but he’s doing his own things too which is super cool. Super proud of who they’ve become and I’m glad I got to be apart of their journey 😁

[@beckyg.9087]

Hey just wanted to tell you guys I love this and I’ve noticed it’s been improving exponentially since you started! Don’t stop doing this. You’ve already reached the ultimate success here and as an OG member of the community we will never stop supporting you in everything and anything you choose to do

[@pandahasachannel]

Damn this brings back the old old days, me and my friends use to walk over to where Anthony & ian use to make videos wheather it be at the park or during the boxman series, shit was amazing alongside watching ryan do hella dope shit on youtube back in the day, so much had changed

[@joon3900]

Interviewer: Ryan, why are firetrucks red? Ryan: Because firetrucks have 6 wheels and 2 people and 6x2 is 12 and 12 inches is a foot and a foot is a ruler and Queen Elizabeth was a ruler, Queen Elizabeth was also a ship, and ships sail the seas, and the seas have fish, and the fish have fins, and the Finns fought the Russians and the Russians are red and firetrucks are always rushin' around.

[@bernardosantiago9615]

that sure was a ride

[@AsianGlow]

WHAT THE FIRETRUCK?!

[@miyabrry5766]

why that was very fulfilling

[@thiswhitescreen2666]

That rap was *fire*

[@goodname7660]

He stole it from Siri you can ask Siri that and get that reply

[@AlexDoge20]

It really seems like Anthony (and Ian too) grew as a person and Defy didn't let Smosh grow with him. It makes sense that Ian and Anthony would've either stuck with it or split completely.

[@molly4885]

I love how you guys are so genuine and humble. Please continue making podcasts!!

[@veiksmingaslietus213]

One of THE most interesting guests on this platform, true original youtuber! Been a pleasure to listen.

[@JRHMC]

Anthony has changed so much , his content is still fresh and interesting , so has ryan

[@LifeofB108]

Anthony is really mature and clear minded. I would hangout out with him.

[@PutingPinoy]

What you were saying about being fearful about dating landscape because of someone going undercover to cancel you; that’s how I feel sometimes too! Except, I only have 29k subscribers. So, I could only imagine how terrifying that would be.

[@annemicamarasigan5268]

Ryan is the first youtuber i watched. I grew up while his channel grew. Now that his content has become more mature than the skits, I love it. 💓

[@FlameOnDeck]

It's nice to see that even through the fame these guys grew up into solid, conscious, mature people while still keeping the humorous fun loving traits that made us gravitate to them in the first place
