I’m 44 but I’m a recent TDWP fan and have seen them 3 times in the past year. This interview is amazing and I adore this concept for a show. Mike is such an interesting and intelligent person.
@@ryanrado3714 yes... My whole life has fallen apart since I heard this interview. I can't hold a job anymore... My family has split up... I've gained 42 lbs....
can you ask him if he doesnt like the older albums anymore? I heard someone say he said that and want to know if its true. CUZ i like when the sentence trails off. It sound s all WONKY
This is why I love Mike Hranica, hes Christian, yet he's a real chill and down to earth person, not some "holier than thou" condescending evangelist. Really wish more people were like him
As an atheist I can tell you. That dude is NOT a Christian. Nothing about him is Christ like. The band simply took advantage of a trend back in the day.
@@michaelferguson9642 yes! I'm a born again Christian and it makes me sad. Before I was a Christian I thought he was a Christian. I know your an atheist as you said, but yes it seems like Mike to me has a religion but sadly not a true relationship with Christ.😐 There's many people like this, or false converts. I don't want to judge the guys heart because only God truly knows his heart, coming from me , a Christian perspective. I still enjoy their music but yeah I can say that your most likely correct.
I grew up going to private school.. jammed out to DC talk as a young bloak.. graduated rocking my face off to Tdwp! My faith was held together by this music♥️
Great content, love how engaged you were and the natural feel of the conversation. Felt like two buddies just cracked open two cold ones and vibed out.
I actually loved Mike's painting! Simple and looked cool to me! And as always the interview was great he is seriously such a cool genuine guy to learn about❤ much love to the guys at tdwp
This is the first interview I’ve ever seen of both of you guys. You guys are so rad I fucking love both of you. Mike your so cool I play hockey too and have listened to TDWP for 12 years. I recently saw TDWP on WCAR 10 year anniversary tour and they were so high energy and absolutely brutal. I fuckin loved it. You guys became my instant favorite band that night
The comment section has made me super excited for the interview! TDWP was my favorite band back in the day - still love them 😎 I was not disappointed - this is a fantastic concept!
hey man never seen you before, but just poppin in to say phenomenal video, exceptional interview, great editing - just a solid video man this deserves thousands of more views to come. you're an awesome dude.
The hate in these comments blows my mind. You did an amazing job. You where there to have a conversation, you really tried to get to know him. This wasn't just an "interview". I hope one day I get to have the chance to talk and paint with you. You seem like such a genuine person. Great work man!
This is such a cool concept and the conversation was so engaging, I learned more about him and his works then I ever could’ve then some bullshit “band TV” interview
ZEEEEEEEEDER!!!! Hope your well, learning and growing Ryan Rado! I met you through the guys from The Glorious Unseen in Nashville and some other mutual peeps from the Anchor. This is great what you guys are doing mayn!!! Keep it up! Speaking of TGU, I’m gonna cast my vote to get Ben Crist or any of those duders on here with you seeder. Love you bro! 🤘🏾
For the longest time, I couldn’t figure out what it was that interested me in Mike so badly.(outside of TDWP) Low and behold I found out today that he, like myself is a Sagittarius. Can come off as shy or introverted when in a more dormant state, but 1000% will be extra AF when in our natural extroverted state.😂 We enjoy interpersonal conversion, and love any and everything that has to do with creating, which explains this moment 2:42 😂 /why this interview seems so natural. Also even when we’re chilling, our natural high is still radiating throughout whatever space we occupy, and it’s free for the taking. This explains why Mike is kicking it trying to paint, and the interviewer seems a little hyper. 😅
Hate to break it to you, but astrology is bullshit. Google astrology and confirmation bias, and google precession of the equinoxes and astrology. Basically, your horoscope is wrong, and based on outdated and incorrect calculations.
Wellllllll, projecting one’s desires onto another person no matter how seemingly blissful they may feel to the one projecting is often times motivated by a lack of recognition in the fanatical nature of the projection in question. Ain’t no thing.. unless it becomes violent and intrusive, the unconscious rules all of us. Recognizing that is a way to heaven, imo. ❤️
@@MakeItPerfect what if the person projecting is fully aware of their fanatical nature but it is being driven by love for all? Harmless when the intention is pure. Selfishness is defined as doing something for personal pleasure or profit. As a believer, I gain nothing from sharing my testimony and leading someone to salvation. And I know I cannot save anyone by my own words or actions. Eternity is a long time. I don’t understand what you mean by “the unconscious rules all of us.” What is Heaven? What have you learned of it and from whom?
Love is not fanatical... also, no of us are ‘fully aware’ of ANYTHING no matter how much we fantasize about being so. I’m stoked for you though, dude! Do your thing.
I've been a Christian all my life and one of my most important prayers is, "I'm not trying to help people to get to Heaven. I don't deserve Heaven no matter what I do. I cannot "earn" Heaven, that is narcissistic. It is extremely selfish for me to go through life with my main thought being, "how do I get to heaven today?" If I were condemned to hell no matter what and could do nothing to get to heaven, I should and would still want to be a good person and to help people and to "attempt" to be Christlike." I feel this is what Mike was getting at. Christians shouldn't live each day pondering on what will make them worthy of Heaven. We should want to be Christlike, even if we're damned to hell.
@@Jonboyhutch he was talking about altruism. You're not acting out of love if your motivation is reward or punishment. People who rely on heaven and hell as a punishment/reward system aren't acting out of love, they're acting out of self-interest and expecting others to do so as well. It cheapens the message if it's simply a choice between unlimited wealth or unlimited torture. Though I would take it a step further and say that the bible was written with those parts specifically included by the men who wrote it just to compel people to join up. It's transparently made-up and the dichotomy is comically extreme.
Rotate the frames. It could easily be a spongebob chapter, I imagine squid painting and in that bob arrives and throws the painting, lifts it but poorly accommodated, squid is so upset, in that comes an art taster and likes it, but squid continues with disgust. He becomes famous, but he has that nonconformity that grows throughout the chapter. In the end he decides to turn it, everyone ignores it because it ceases to be art, but he is happy
The dude who leads the interview should definitely talk less, make less little "mmh mmh" "oh yeah me too" "ah yeah dude" noises. It breaks the moment and the intention.
Max makes a good point - a lot of the interruption is impulsive excitement. That’s perfectly acceptable, too. I had similar thoughts about myself watching this. Glad y’all are commenting on it.
@@MakeItPerfect Don't want to be critiqued and get better? Don't put stuff on UA-cam. I'm not the only one obviously. Just let the guest answer a question and express their thoughts fully.
Heaven- isn’t to be in the “cool place” or to “receive” any reward it’s to be in the presence of God as a Christian which by default is someone who follows chirst personally and intimately. Hell is eternal separation from God, not to Dow play it and there are a lot more details concerning it but it’s unfortunate when people treat these topics like ideas or systems. Even when he talks sayin on earth as heaven it’s completely out of context. It’s concerning “the fathers will” not our own desire. There idea or type of Christianity is just a belief or a system and not personal and it’s sad that these topics are misrepresented and downplayed for a lack of understanding.
This is the most natural interview I’ve ever watched, the world needs more of this
Hands down the best interview that I’ve ever watched. I enjoyed this a ton.
Excellent, dude!
Please do more of these
Many many more

Duder, I don’t even listen to TDWP and this was still so interesting. Love what you’re doing.
BOO YA!! Glad u dig it, C!
Fantastic conversation!
Verification of how I see and understand my grandson… such a privilege to hear him confirm
I’ve always loved and still do love Prada. I’ve always wanted to meet Mike so this was awesome
Glad you enjoyed it. YEET
He is amazing and seriously one of the kindest souls I have ever met
Mike: *starts sentence*
Interviewer: “yeah sure yeah cool yeah totally yeah yeah” 😂
Good interview tho lol
It was maddeningly disingenuous haha

thanks for letting us hang out with you, this was great man
This is so cool! Mike is the best!

this is so dope. mike is such a cool guy, I love how you set up this laidback convo with him. awesome look into his mind & the band
This is Brilliant !!! why isn't this a bigger thing!!??
Post about it and see what happens 💯💯💯
Saw TDWP a very long time ago, never listened to their stuff since then but it's interesting that his musical tastes have evolved similar to mine.
💯💯💯
"Praise be to the Most Fly" is one of the funnier things I've read in my lifetime. Also, I LOVED this interview. This show deserves way more exposure.
Just curious, did Mikes painting sell?
Came here for Mike !
I came here for Mike, but I subscribed! This was such an interesting and unique interview style! Definitely dig it.

I'm confused on how wanting someone to spend eternity in Heaven is selfish???

Oh yeah dude, I totally do that. It’s easy to get ahead of yourself in a situation like this; I’m sure you could imagine eh?

@@ryanrado3714 It is not that, anyone can have their interpretation, but how much you mess with saying being a Christian is wrong
