IDK, But I need to see a Yipes Unreal Tournament stream asap. I still come back to the game every so often. Would be tight to see some other FGC heads try it out. Game is fun af

[@solitudegaming]

@@tristan_tds I wasnt too bad at Unreal 2k4, great game lots of fun, solo and teamplay

[@errortic3668]

Got to be either Punk or Kizzie and maybe some sf4 players like xian, latif, gamerbee, nuckledu

[@Judgment]

I like the old school players vibe, because there's a lot of untapped knowledge within and beyond the games. That being said, see if you can get VDO. And if you do, let him know that it was a recommendation from his brother, Judgment Day.

[@brandonthompson6094]

Yes I'd love a FGC podcast just interviews with different players over different games

[@exthechickenwing]

No frills podcast yipes and chris Matrix

[@zaqqaz]

Bring No Frills back!

[@KiingKai91]

Yoo Justin x top Melee players?! This is already an amazing series

[@TruLuan]

What ever happened to No Frillz? They still have to finish the tri-force chronicles ​@@zaqqaz

[@BozClawt]

@@TruLuan Yipes said on a stream it has something to do with matrix. He might be busy or some other reasons

[@philcoats6812]

"im pregnant, got two lines on the thing right, it ain't covid." -Justin Wong

[@rayquon]

Great concept, and can't go wrong with Yipes as your first interviewee.

[@Slatanata22]

Can't go wong

[@galactic4830]

Yipes mad comfy. This not even an interview, this is just two brothers choppin it up on some good vibes

[@TheYungestOfSoups]

It's really remarkable how Yipes is such a universally loved individual. I can't even find one thing to dislike about him

[@MrAnime4lyfe]

It's funny, the story Yipes told about him honoring the promise he made to his grandma about not getting tattoos and stuff is pretty much the same reason why I don't and could never smoke. I made a promise to my grandma before she passed that I would never smoke because she was super against it after she quit and I intend to honor that until the day I die. Grandma promises can't be broken man.

[@GuileWinQuote]

I've been wanting something like this for the FGC for a long time. Good stuff!

[@gold6813]

Born free KZbin channel

[@FamilyTyRanT]

Yeah... R.I.P

[@ErnestoAguila-mk5oi]

Yipes has great charisma. I remember when I use to see Justin and Yipes play at Chinatown fair. Those were definitely dope days for me

[@rookie1405]

Justin was trying to get Yipes in trouble with some of those question lol 😂

[@Mephi_uwu]

This is wholesome, i like it a lot. It sounds like youve made a lot of wonderful friends along the way, justin.

[@alsoknownas875]

You HAVE to keep doing these, especially with the veterans of the community. It's important to preserve the history, and for younger players to get ideas about where they can take their lives. It's also great to see other sides of the players. Justin is a surprisingly good interviewer: warm, relaxed, asks good questions, likable. Absolutely continue these!

[@alistairb5839]

Awesome idea Jwong! I'd love more of this! So many great people to interview!

[@DMan_AA]

Yipes is such a great and cool guy. Really love the vibes with this interview. It really just felt like two longtime pals reminiscing on the good times while still looking forward to the future. Good shit, Justin! Can't wait to see more from this series.

[@24framedavinci39]

The stories were fun. Alex Valle and I used to mob Golf Land in Stanton. He and the other hard core guys tried getting me to join tourneys, but I wasn't interested in going pro. The teenage mindset.

[@ken34]

I always love hearing the MvC2 lore from back in the day!

[@halfstrike721]

Idk why Yipes being under the covers is so funny to me 😂

[@williamwellman3280]

yipes the most entertaining person ever in FGC free. great way to start the year justin. love you guys

[@datankle7519]

Oh damn this is actually a dope idea. Please do more of these 😤

[@TekkenHype]

This was real

[@SSBalla29]

Keep these up Justin! We need more of these interviews with other FGC faces. Also every time Yipes does the FChamp impressions that shit has me dead 🤣🤣🤣

[@blaebrobinson895]

This is dope. Really love this concept. I'd watch a bunch of these.

[@theused421]

Absolutely loved this Justin. Will definitely tune into future episodes if this continues.

[@Judoka661]

I truly love the convo, the history, and the vibe.... Happy New Year 🎉

[@alphago9397]

This was an excellent interview; would love to see more of this in the future, for sure.

[@ViralWinter]

Let's go JW!!! More FGCasts pleeeeaase! 🙏 Starting the new year off RIGHT! 🎉

[@willthelemon5681]

Im so all for this! This is hooking me day one!

[@spawn-sr8tw]

[@CrooklynBrawl3r]

love this kind of content to the fullest, best first guest also to set the series off!!!!!

[@ElvaanRanger]

Yeah Love this series was chill as hell and was over before I knew it … can’t wait till next one!

[@shinjoni]

I absolutely love this series. Its amazing to have all the questions I had about this legend all coming out in one place we need more run the mindset!

[@David_Here]

This is probably my new fav content u put out man! So hype for this

[@Skkra]

That was great. I'd absolutely love more of these longer interviews with famous players and community figures.

[@impressivestory]

This is sick, bro. Absolutely great idea. I love fgc lore, love seeing the personalities behind the play. Do this as much as you can, these are the stories that need to be told and preserved.

[@adamkaneshiro]

this is an amazing format! love the personal side of the people playing the games we love! keep on creating these new ways to look at the folks in the fighting sphere!

[@furrybproductions]

Keep these interviews coming! Great work!

[@Kairoem]

This was great, man! Thanks for giving us a wonderful start to the year!

[@rockguitarshred]

Honestly I search long and hard for content like this,and to now have you do it is more than I can ask for

[@errortic3668]

Hell yeah this is so chill I love this, i can listen to this when I'm working and studying for stuff

[@MaseNoKen]

This is quality content! and I absolutely love it here. Please please keep this going‼️

[@SUDAGANGTV]

Loving this podcast J.Wong! Very chill vibe. Looking foward to more episodes! 👍

[@Jroc286]

I love this format! The best part it's silly initially, but the deeper into the conversation it feels more intimate, you get the feeling ohh it's the boys hanging out and getting to hear this history of the fgc. Love yipes & Justin. Look forward to your future episodes.

[@VegaMain]

Glad to see this. Was waiting for Yipes to drop another episode of his podcast but I guess he’s done with it. Love learning about people in FGC and hearing their stories.

[@GamingWithMoh]

I loved this. My two favourite people from the FGC and the first people that come to mind when I think about the culture. This was a great concept and I don't think you could have started with a better guest for EP. 1. Looking forward to more episodes Justin. Would love to see Mike Ross on this one day.

[@MilkteaMomoko]

Another year to two legends, Happy 2024 and awesome series debut Justin!

[@DominicanStud101]

This is an awesome series. Loved the first episode. Keep it coming Justin!

[@rito5564]

this was actually great, would love to see more podcasts/interviews

[@user-pb6pr5rf5u]

Please keep doing this, amazing content!

[@jonesy7425]

I didn't get exposure to this growing up despite being in y'all's age range. I'd love to see more.

[@Bynoe]

This is a great series. Would love to see more interviews with players from you and Yipes generation. I don't keep up with the FGC so much these days but I used to love watching you guys in the SFIV/MVC3 era.

[@princegomenasai3943]

Pretty much the best first episode you could’ve hoped for, gj 🎉

[@Musubi-Azeyma]

Great interview. Where 1 day into 2024 and already were getting hit with crazy new content on the channel. Love it.

[@Tahldon-kun]

This was incredibly cool. Thanks to the both of you for sharing thoughts and stories. There's just something about all of us getting up there in age that makes the context of everything we've experienced around the FGC just hit right lol. I like that the convo drifted into the responsibilities and back, cause we're all there, man. Great first set.

[@AceBadguy]

Hope you keep doing this series. This is nice.

[@Crazy8-uh4on]

This is good stuff Justin lookin forward to more

[@JoeJoe0o]

Yeah I'm tuning in to these

[@TakaComics]

I love this format Justin! You gotta do more!

[@99biff]

This was interesting, hilarious, and super dope. The setting was a trip 😂

[@Grimbear13]

You two are legit the reason I found the FGC scene. Yipes with the Curleh Mustache vid and Justin with Evo 37. These were the things that made me find that there was a competitive scene and community for fighting games which was super cool!

[@ThreePeekBTW]

LOVED this!

[@totsuzenshi3882]

I've seen most of the FGC interviews and this has to be in the top 3 easy. I enjoyed this, the setting, the questions and the fact that this was Yipes. Good pick Wong.

[@Yaqoub_H]

Make more of these J! Love that you got Michael for your first guest ❤️

[@Comrade-Broski]

Love this can't wait for the next one

[@ChocolateMagnums]

THIS IS GODLIKE. Been a huge Yipes fan since I saw him in Marvel - I hope yall react to moments in marvel history in another video some day!

[@shaideyfresh1]

Great interview! Great insight and vibes. And hilarious interview couch lolll 😂 #FGC #XBOX

[@Raspy978]

This was a dope pod. You didn't just ask fgc questions but a variety of categories which I like.

[@Mr3rdFloor]

Been watching JWong for a WHILE now, but this is instantly my favorite video on the channel. Keep it up! 😌

[@soggy11]

Great episode great series can’t wait for more

[@v1Sound]

Let's go, Justin! Love the idea. Who better to start the series off with other than Yipes? We need more of this! 👍

[@TVs_Brent]

Awesome convo, I'd love to see more like this

[@Volksyn]

[@UpcycleShoesKai]
