The fact that he not only looks like Jesus but is also the same height is all the proof I need

[@Yamato866]

Charlie, you were and still are the better part of my childhood and I also enjoy the Official Podcast. Keep posting great content

[@christophermccray6528]

This can't be Charlie! You can't convince me this is the real deal. He didn't end the video by saying "That's about it. See ya".

[@Ju-Peter667]

Fr some parts of the video felt like a fever dream

[@theschoolstories3833]

its one of his many clones

[@thatcrankywalrus]

He said "Thats about it" right before he threw the last card and i was positive that was when it was going to cut to black. 😂

[@SpaceMissile]

i still love that one video where it's all the "see ya"s combined. lmao

[@NotAlwaysBilly]

I swear for like 2 months when I started watching him I thought he said So yeah instead of See Ya

He’s actually a pretty chill dude tbh

[@kinggeorge2284]

I love his lil smile at 6:44 you dont see it often.

[@GretgorPooper]

I think the reason he got popular is a combination of his chill demeanor, down-to-Earth attitude, and mostly reasonable opinions. Also his sense of humor and occasional fun stories.

[@ao2415]

he's basically a news outlet at this point, but instead of the watered down, fake garbage he actually delivers the truth

[@obscure.reference]

@@ao2415what? he basically just summarizes already brief articles before much information is out on the story. he’s fine to keep you in the loop, but by no means is he some kind of truthsayer or even journalist. seen a lot of his videos where looking up the topic just a few hours later shows a pretty different story.

[@ZaWrldo]

I'd describe Charlie as a popular representation of a regular guy

[@lazylion420]

yeah I can see how he's popular with a generation of people who do nothing, don't get laid, and don't touch grass I suppose

[@goheat007]

Charlie saying he's got black hair when he has classic brown hair is crazy haha

[@Adrianhernandez-er2du]

The Tears don’t Fall intro is such a great piece to still have down.

[@dankflo]

Charlie is like the Keanu Reeves of KZbin, and of the hunger games franchise. Just like matrix wouldn't be matrix without Keanu, the hunger games wouldn't be the hunger games without Charlie thanks to his awe inspiring performance as District 8 Hospital Helper.

[@ShinySephiroth1]

7:27 I saw the video in which he says he does, though. He explained that he makes notes for quirky things he wants to say, pins it to his monitor, and he references it as he speaks. You can see him glance to his notes in every video. 😅

Truly the man that carried the Hunger Games movies

[@angelamazakas2624]

The fact he can wear white shirts all the time and never get a ketchup stain on them is amazing

he probably does but has a quadrillion white shirts at his disposal
