I love the thumbnail because there’s a famous clip of bill burr saying how he had DFW as a professor and talks about he doesn’t read and wasn’t as enthused, very fitting of burrs character.

[@TheTrueRandomGamer]

Really. We didn't notice.

[@nerdentertainment12]

Bro, you're the reason why I picked up and read DFW and I dug deeper I got my unread copy of Infinite Jest off the shelf and decided to read it. Thank you bro. You're the best

[@WriteConscious]

You're the best brotha!

Are you planning to focus on James Joyce in the future? I imagine you are a fan, but I have not heard you mention him on here. Also, would you consider doing a video on David Foster Wallace’s style of humor?

[@mikelpelaez]

I think that he talked a bit about Ulysses in an old video doing a tierlist of various classics.

another great video, love it!

[@richwoe7611]

Thank you and it’s good to hear that you are committed to keep going!❤

[@theodoreconstantini2548]

"This guy has no life. All he does is make two timeless authors more accessible to thousands of people. What's the deal with that?"

[@philosophia9927]

Hey, I have two questions. Do you have any Don Delillo material? And the second, do you have any videos on teaching English?

[@nothingreally6680]

who are some of those twenty writers you plan to start being the content guy for? (just so i know who to read more avidly soon)

[@itsallgoodman4108]

You should make a patreon and do long form DFW lectures, then expand your channel to cover more authors and artists. I would love to hear your thoughts on James Blake or Stephen King’s “on writing”. Theres novice writers scouring KZbin for good content on all sorts of topics. It’s thirsty out here in Sante Fe!

[@chairmanmeow958]

As a fellow New Mexican I second this comment

[@kentjensen4504]

Will you also be the headquarters of all things James Ellroy here on KZbin?

[@alejandroaulestia]

This the most meta video on this channel

[@timmellis5038]

Ya, we look at these people and we want to be admired like them. I could say a billion things about this... but I remember watching Lady Gaga perform a song on KZbin. I could see the audience, and I thought: "How is it even possible for those little girls to not want to be her?" The desire to be admired like someone famous came across as so apparent on watching that video. The reason I mention it is because of how extreme that feeling is for young humans, and therefore how conditioning it is for us as humans. The audience is mainly 7 and 8 year old girls with their dads. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZuTip19gNaUq9k

i don't idolise david foster wallace

[@user-xd1xf9rp5p]

It’s spelled ‘idolize’ Considering there’s autocorrect and google and you still spelled it wrong shows you are the exact type of person David Foster Wallace would not want to idolize him.

[@cvspvr]

@@user-xd1xf9rp5p ever heard of british english?
