"self-awareness does not absolve anybody of anything", it´s my favorite quote from the whole special
@airlockengage sorry to be annoying but "laziness repackaged" really stood out to me, ur totally right
It's like when they say "being aware that you have a problem it's the first step to fix it", ignoring that the problem of many of our generation is that we are stuck in that first step.
Self awareness is a basic requirement that most people somehow still fail to meet
@airlockengage Laziness Repackaged is a good album name
I know , I'm up still at 3am after watching inside for the first time, I remember seeing this guy years ago on UA-cam, he is wow. I'm loving it. But this quote tho...man... definitely hits home and I'm over here just high and analylizing all this amazing content lol
This clip was 100% designed to be put on UA-cam, and used to trick people who still haven’t seen it to have their expectations blown. Love it
You noticed it! A reaction on UA-cam would add yet ANOTHER mini-box to the video. What I want to see is Bo Burnham reacting to a reaction to Unpaid Intern
@HammerBann Yeah of course and that’s the only way you get the full picture. I don’t, however, think there’s anything wrong with watching a favorite bit or song on its own. You might not have 1 hr and 28 min to watch the entire thing. I’ve watched the clip Bo uploaded to his channel of “All Eyes On Me” so many times.
@@curtisholsinger6023 technically this is Bo Burnham reacting to a reaction to unpaid intern
@HammerBann sorry english isn't my first language, can you explain?
@HammerBann think it's both
When he said "wadda dop wop wadda" I really felt that.
Same. I wrote a poem about it in English class I was so moved
right?
Honestly my favorite of the whole thing
It was very Muppets like and I am here for it
He looks like a muppet when he does that lol
It's like when you imagine talking to a therapist to calm yourself down after a panic attack and then tell your imaginary therapist that you sometimes talk to an imaginary therapist and then tell your imaginary imaginary therapist that you imagine therapists discussing imaginary therapists with you and then you realize you actually don't have a therapist
ROFL… crap
That's happened to me, not exactly that. But the same situation where u just keep on looping everything like "I'm overthinking and now I'm overthinking about overthinking and so on", happens to me in other situations as well
“I want this to stop!”
you nailed it!
My imaginary therapists always find it all very unimaginable.
At first I was like: “haha funny, he is making fun of reaction videos.” But then it kinda turns more bleak and showing how self critical and overthinking he is about himself. Layers!
thats me these past 6 months
Badumm tss
Layers! Like an onion.... that makes you cry...... a lot.
welcome to BO
No fucking shit
The scatting at the end never fails to make me laugh!!
It reminds me of the muppets.
I need a longer version of the song. :D
Watching the special I couldnt even watch him react because I was literally on the floor laughing after that. I finally can watch it without crying of laughter
WABARABABAAAAAA
I have tears in my eyes from laughing each time it comes up. So great!
If overthinking was explained to those who lack any thought.
I’m an over thinker and my friend is an under thinker or their mind is always empty, and this is exactly what it feels like
@@ArticPlayZ101 How would you describe their mind “being empty”?
@@herossoup6027 there are people out there who don't have inner thoughts. Just the idea. No conversation in mind. Look it up.
@@lynxlynx8191 Huh, I did, and it surprised me that people went without an inner monologue to process things, but it was noted that they had other ways to do so that wasn’t have an abstract voice within. What exactly do you mean by “just the idea” though?
@@herossoup6027 I would imagine they act on instinct or impulse. I don't know much about the human mind or how people think, and people can think in all sorts of ways we can't even imagine, it's an interesting topic. I'm a bit of an overthinker, I'm constantly thinking about everything happening around me, but at the same time, I find it difficult to concentrate on certain things. Sometimes I don't think about what I do at all, but then again, my mind is always focused on something.
It's extremely hard to imagine someone who's the opposite, someone who doesn't think at all, and just does what they do.
This was so meta. Bo has a way of describing complex feelings and behaviours so clearly that it blows my mind. This is what overthinking and too much self awareness feels like.
But also the fact that overthinking doesn't solve anything or have any inherent meaning, which I thought was really powerful. It's definitely something I can apply to my own life / my own line of reasoning.
@@ionlydrinkjesusmilk7256 i legit told a close friend "if you wanna imagine what being inside my head is like for me it is p much precisely that clip 24/7"
*wait are there actually people that dont think like this*
seriously I'm pretty sure this is a normal thing to do, isn't it?
@@ionlydrinkjesusmilk7256 [remembers something stupid i once did]
"That was so stupid of me. And I never even learned that much from it. Am I stupid?"
"Except isn't there a saying about the smartest people thinking they are the dumbest?"
"So that means I'm smart."
"But there's even more sayings about the dumbest people thinking they are the smartest!"
"Well now this is a paradox..."
The whole 'reaction to the reaction to the reaction to' is so clever, and so well done. Just great
The concept itself isn't really that clever because it has been done loads of times before, but I agree that it's still great.
@@Magst3r1 I’ve seen this idea so many times but his execution is pretty fresh
@@Magst3r1 To be fair, Bo criticized himself in this very clip for not being that clever. Which in turn makes it actually pretty clever, but since the self-awareness doesn't make him a genius or anything, it's not that clev-jesus christ
I just want to know how he executed it, is it as simple as using some kind of a software?
@@co2_os well the script was timed, and the audio might have been adjusted to sync the loops
"Am I balding?" One of the funniest sentence in the special for me
"am I balding"? *has a full head of hair*
Yeah I don’t think he needs to worry about that any time in the near future. I think he has really nice hair. I like that he has kept it a little bit longer.
@@bayonetababe9697 eh I mispoke, having a lot of hair doesn't mean your balding, his hair line is good. and yeah I like that he keeps it longer now.
@@joshuaijaola2145 Yeah I knew you were being sarcastic when you said it. I was basically being sarcastic to and agreeing with you that it was the last thing he needed to worry about. It’s hard sometimes that sarcasm doesn’t always come through in text format. It’s cool that we both agree on his hair style. I even like the well groomed beard and mustache he has going on right now. I usually go for more the clean shaven look but this looks nice on him. Now that beard and hair style he was rocking at the end of “Inside” wasn’t his best look but I think he looks really nice now.
@@bayonetababe9697 It's less he needs to worry about balding, and more lighting can make our hairlines look thinner than they normally do, which for men especially can be a freakout moment as receding hair is rarely a "I know this is happening" and more a surprise, you suddenly have a lot less hair than you used to in key areas. Because of that, if you have a colic and you didn't know it or forgot about it, seeing the top of your head can freak you out as you go "bald spot?!" but then your mom or friends can reassure you it's always been there. The lighting in this shot especially does make his hairline look receding at a glance, but yeah it's absolutely not and just a case of the light shining just right into his scalp.
This is the most anxiety I’ve ever seen jam packed into 3 minutes and 20 seconds.
Bo Burnham should just create a show called "Bo Burnham: Mind F*ck," where he just constantly blows your mind by making you more and more self-aware.
Is that not just most things he’s done already?
"Insider"
Pretty sure that's called inside
He'd never admit that there is anything of value in what he does other than to fulfill his own ego and he'd hate the concept. That's my read on his anyways.
Are you not already self aware?
Best part is even though this is marketed as comedy, everything about this is completely sincere. There's no special twist, there's no punchline.
his special is truly an hour and a half long string of antijokes
@@hanmetalworks I dunno, the pirate treasure map bit is a pretty hilarious joke.
@@StraveTube what pirate treasure bit?
@@RidhoFikri "laminate the damn map"
Just saw this in theatres and people were losing their shit.
Lucky bro
Didn't know this was playing in theatres
Nearest theater that showed it was 9 hours away I couldn’t do it 😭😭😭
Yeah they were in my theater too. We all really lost it when “Jeffrey Bezos” came on. It really was such a great experience.
alamo drafthouse had it playing for weeks
"I am so worried that criticism will be levied against me that I levy it against myself before anyone else can." Yeah, that's about right
A sentence that embodies its own sentiment, ironically.
"self awareness never absolves anyone of anything" this is where it got too real for me 😂😭
Unpaid Intern is a banger of a song even though its really short.
Based on the 1946 banger “Sixteen Tons”. The 1955 version by Tennessee Ford is the way to go.
@@Cory722 I’m glad _South Park_ showed me the song.
That's how I feel about a lot of songs in the special. Content, Bezos I, and Biden all deserved to be full songs.
@PaulTurnbloom sorry to be 3 months late but content IS a full song.
Video ends. My brain:
CEO, ENTREPRENEUR, BORN IN NINETEEN SIXTY-FOUR
Brb going to watch Inside again
JEFFREY, JEFFREY BEZOS
Well, well, look who's inside again...
Me at 3am
@@babyvision6924 *CLAP CLAP*
Cmon jeffery you can do it
So basically he's so self-aware he can't live with a thought without doubting it and realizing the faults in it.
It's so sad seeing Bo get so self conscious. It feels like he's always focused on what he does wrong, and I really hope he reads this as a reminder that I am living in his walls.
It's an act.
Tom Lube I’m still living in his walls all the same
@@TomLube if you've seen any of his interviews or talk shows you would know that actually he is self-conscious and self-criticizing to a fault. He carries a huge amount of responsibility regarding his status as an influencer.
lol you win the comment section
@@Mr.StarktheShark but it's an act. he took all of that pressure, worked it out on therapy or something, and acted it out in the most relatable, honest ways he could, otherwise the anxiety and depression he shows in the special wouldnt have let him create carefully planned scenes such as this one
"Self-awareness does not absolve anyone of anything."
If anything it's a warrant for even worse condemnation because those self-aware individuals have a better understanding of their actions and consequences.
“Wha-de-whup-whup-dah-DAHHH!” is my forever mood.
My favorite version of this is when people are reacting to the special as a whole and this comes up. You can almost see their brain reboot in real time.
Just imagine someone parodying the special by doing the same thing with this clip XD
@@alexc.4909 I saw a reactor doing it actually, it was really good
@@manvslife271 ooh who was it?
@@seineevee
Bro never got a response :(
It demonstrates how empty of value their 'content' actually is. They're just parasites producing low quality garbage for clicks.
This felt like what Jacksfilms would do
Me me big bo
@@flameosaurus1832 To quote that ad lib from "Comedy"... Clever!
Bro I swear! Remember when was posting on his second channel everyday for like 2 weeks and each new upload he'd play the previous day's video over it? That's what this reminded me of.
there was also that video jack did of him reacting to jinx's reaction to him where he said nothing and just gave the screen the most spiteful glare ever lmao
cough
The biggest point missed in that whole bit…that last riff at the end of the song was pure beauty. That’s what we should take away from this. Yeah. That’s it.
Every Song He Makes Is A Masterpiece
Capitalise Every Single Word Create Clickbait
Why Are We Capitalizing Every Word Like It’s A Song Or A Book Title? Also, Why Are Most Songs Or Book Titles Capitalized Like This?
@@aaainainaina because I talked lie that 2 years ago ???? It's not that deep/nm
unpaid intern is criminally underrated
Based on the criminally underrated song from 1946 - “Sixteen Tons”.
So are the interns
Barely legally underrated
WAHDAHBAHPAHBADAH
*underpaid
2:06 ''I'm very confused. i'm very very confused'' gets me every time
I love how every time he reacts to a new reaction he changes his way of thinking of it!
The first reaction: This song is showing the modern world of working class jobs
The second reaction: I always feel like there has to be a deeper meaning to everything I write which is stupid
The third reaction: I have a defense mechanism we're I have to criticize myself
The fourth reaction: This is freaking me out and I want to stop!
This special was the best thing I've probably ever seen on Netflix
The coffee is free, just like me.
That line is so good because the "just like me" is said in a tone that implies the interpretation of "i am free" as "I have freedom" instead of "i am unpaid", the real meaning revealed by the following sentence.
My professional life summarised in a song.
the laugh after “the song, not the beard” is such a dad laugh and i love it
Yes! He just absolutely nails that smirk/chuckle aimed at the off camera “interviewer”, the fact that we all know there’s no one else in the room makes it that much funnier. Might be my favorite part of the clip. Shit is too good
@@alexsahagian4332 what, its not an interview parody its a reaction parody
I like the part where he reacts to the video 🙂
Personally, I prefer the reaction to the reaction to the reaction video.
I love how throughout this special he did not once promote a gambling website that he owned without disclosing that information, Tom
@Bryn1E that is how you “what’s up checkmark” correctly
Same
So 75% of the video
'Barely people, somehow legal. Unpaid Intern' is in my mind 24/7
Holy shit, so many layers. Notice how his second reaction is kinda like the depressed or anxious thoughts that jump on us after we do something, that whole "Fuck why did I do that, it wasn't funny or smart, I'm just an idiot, I should just never leave my house again and end up INSIDE."
I've spent way too much time trying to figure out how he even did this
He timed out the original script, the rest was the magic of editing.
Maybe he used the headphones to make a playback delay so he knew exactly where to say certain parts?
@@jackguerre Yea, he could have easily fed his video through OBS on a 32 second delay so he could accurately react to himself with that much of a delay
@@TomLube would have to be a 45 second delay to counter the bit where he talks "introducing" the reaction
@@TomLube Only problem with that idea is it isn't actually a reaction, every word, every pause, every syllable he had planned out before he started recording.
finally a place where i can comment that the song is likely based on “16 tons” a 60s song about exploitative labor
I didn’t even realize how similar they sounded, I love 16 tons
Cool, thanks for sharing!
Never heard of it but I’ll definitely check it out now.
Not likely, 100% intentional. 1940s song but the 1955 version by Tennessee Ford is the most popular version.
Oh shit that's what it sounds like!!
Love that they included the whole thing. The reaction bit is amazing
Once again proving he’s a comedic genius.
Almost felt like _I_ was the one having a panic attack at this point in the special lmao
It has been four months since this special came out and not a day goes by I don't have a moment where I loudly think, "Wah-DAH-wa-dap-WAP-wa-dah".
I was in tears laughing at this the first time I watched it. The scat singing still playing over and over in the background just killed me every time.
This sequence was the one thing that single-handedly convinced me about how self-awareness doesn’t absolve anybody of anything.
This is how I analyze myself every day. Replaying what I did in my head and criticizing myself, then criticizing myself for criticizing myself and thinking I should stop criticizing myself, which is also a form of self-criticism. Layers of metacognition. "I'm being a little pretentious. It's an instinct I have where I need everything I write to have some deeper meaning or something. Pretending to myself that I'm deep... it's pretty unlikable that I feel this desperate need to be seen as intelligent." Thank you for expressing this and making this, Bo.
...by writing this comment, am I trying to be seen as deep or intelligent? By writing what I just wrote, am I trying to be seen as deep or intelligent? And it reaches a point where you give up because it's an overload, and you "end" the video. (Only for it to happen many more times with different scenes.)
I couldn't stop laughing watching this. Bo is very talented
I didn't realize anxiety could be explained so well in a 3 min video. I hope you are doing well Bo, your work means a lot to me. It's nice to know someone else sees the same things when they look at the world around them.
this is aging beautifully
This is one of my favorite parts of the special ! I remember being super into the song and his great jazzy voice and then when it cut it made me laugh so hard ! I’ll never see reaction videos the same way again. 😂
"Barely people, somehow legal"
How is it legal though?
"College credit"
Capitalism.
Any law not enforced makes the crime legal
@@cybershadow136 if a law isn't enforced that doesn't make an act legal. The fact that there is no specific law against it however does.
What you're saying is akin to "It's not cheating, if you don't get caught" which is equally wrong. It's still cheating, but you weren't caught and that's all about it.
Your comment is literally "Tell me you're an edgy teen, without telling me you're an edgy teen."
in the US, unpaid internships are only legal if the company doesn't directly profit of the interns work. They're allowed unpaid interns to educate them and/or help them get college credit while working with a company, but you can't just get free labor off interns
The genius behind this is so amazing and it really shows how overthinking ,insecurity and anxiety feels . It makes me think of my most ridiculous moments of overthinking like for the past 4 years I pick a gift for my bestfriend and at first I'm happy with the choice ans then I overanalyse and overthink it so much that I think she will hate it and hate me until I end up in tears despite the fact that she has never hated what I get her . One among a dozen other instances but this is by far the stupidest anxiety I get
The very faint "WADDA-WA-WA-WADA" at 2:48 SLAUGHTERS me every time I watch this
This man. He is the messiah.
Healing the world with comedy
This is by far the best part of the whole special. The infinite layers of self-awareness and self-analysis are so relatable.
“Self-awareness does not absolve anybody of anything.” I reflected on what Bo said so much I forgot to listen to the rest of his reaction vid.
That line really stuck with me.
@@laylover7621 Is it true or not though?
The most self aware free thinking artist I’ve ever experienced.
I’m glad this is being made widely available to everyone!
The reaction thing keeping on going, which is really just him peeling back layers of his own personality, is done really well.
Can I just say how weird and kind of awesome it is to watch this reaction video segment with the framing of actual UA-cam? Incredible. Really completes the experience
I want Bo Burnham to react to this
He relays the experience of what it is to have anxiety without actually ever addressing it, and all under the guise of this a faux UA-cam reaction video. Absolutely genius! When I watched the special and this scene came up I honestly cried because it was such a perfect encapsulation of how I feel so much of the time. The "I want this to stop!" at the end...I felt that
Ah, so thats why I was jokin abt how this is basically my brain XD ...
I have ADHD and anxiety
This is genius. Tbh the whole special is a masterpiece
Saw his special and absolutely loved it. He's a genius!
Hands down best part of the special. It had me in tears. Will forever be my favorite video in the internet.
When I first saw this skit I laughed to the point of tears. And the more I watched the skit, it became more clear that not only is this skit hilarious, but it’s equally as thought provoking and clever if not more so
jesus i can't imagine how hard and tedious it was to make everything timed right
As an actor who films self-tapes by myself (i.e. recording all other characters’ lines with exactly enough time for you to then play back the recording and film yourself having a conversation with a recording of yourself) this is super impressive.
Genius! And very well put together. Awesome Bo
“Self awareness doesn’t absolve anybody of anything.”
- Bo Burnham
I’ve been waiting for this! Favorite part of the special!
It's heartbreaking to find a comedy video that sums up the way your brain works.
He's a master wordsmith while his comedy is deep, quick, funny and other words.
The world needs more Bo.
"Am I balding?"
No Bo, you have a beautiful head of hair and a nice beard. Rocking the pandemic look. 🙏
It's insane how he takes such seemingly silly, surface-level cinematographic ideas and manages to see what they're able to perfectly represent. You wouldn't think this could go beyond a kind of experiment in how long you can troll your audience or take the recording software with frame-in-frames, but instead he uses it as a perfect visual analogy for overthinking and anxiety; he makes a thing, he talks about it, he critiques that talking, he critiques his critique, and so on until the original project is almost entirely blocked out by his own thoughts, where he loses sight of the original vision and can only think about how much he hates listening to himself overthinking. This masterfulness pervades his style; almost every metaphor he makes is near perfect in communicating/evoking its message/effect, the flow of his lyrics always draws the listener in and further communicates his message... where did this genius come from?
Ha! OMG love the song but the video after video layered and you continue reacting. I’m amused and laughing so hard!!! 🤣🙃😂 Thank you for that!
This or socko is my favourite bit of the whole special. Just great stuff man, this guys a genius. He has a unique take on comedy that seems to really be trailblazing right now, this special itself contained so many self-referential meta jokes and up-to-date material relevant to the world today that it blows my mind. Its really leaving everything else in the dust
if you've followed bo for a few years you'll know he actually had to do one of these reactions to reactions and he didn't seem to enjoy the actual experience. it was for 8th grade or one of those projects of his
yeah, the one with elsie fisher on the react bros’ channel, i believe! let me find the link to it
edit: here’s the link! quite eerie with hindsight, i find this video ua-cam.com/video/xS2bnWOnH2Q/v-deo.html
Before this special I did not notice how often reactors used the purple backdrop now I can’t Unsee it.
This is maybe the part of the show I relate to the most. Brilliant. I do this constantly
When he says "I don't like looking at myself like this, and I want this to stop" he could actually also be reflecting on the destructive nature of negative self-talk in a general sense rather than the literal act of him reacting to the looping stream.
Oh god, now I sound pretentious, how delightfully meta!
I just want to say something that people might find insightful so that they might give me internet points because I have crippling self-esteem issues and crave validation from strangers as a crutch.
I think Bo is the only comedian who can make fun of two social phenomenons and himself at the same time, within a couple of minutes.
i honestly feel like he full on improvised the whole thing of reacting to him reacting
This is my ADD all day 😂🤣
Sooo great
It's amazing how he can turn a dumb reaction video skit into a meta commentary about the whole internet. There's reacting, and then there's over-reacting, and then there's over-over-reacting. People see something on the internet and they react to it so much that it stops being about what they're reacting to and more about the reaction itself. With the core content getting lost in all of the noise. You see this all the time on social media sites. We really are losing touch with what's real and what isn't. It's death by context.
This is genius because:
On one hand, he scripted a video which, if we were to believe it was a real time reaction, would be impossible without some magic trick
And better, this illustrates the actual recursive and very honest thought process Bo has inside when thinking about his art. How do I know that? Because I do the same
I cannot stress enough how creative you are Bo!
Love this. Such an amazing way of articulating the spiral of self-criticism.
He’s not actually watching and rewatching his own reaction right? That all had to be done in post right? So he just got this whole skit in one run thru take without the visuals that we’re seeing on our end. Fucking incredible
He probably had a timer and just made sure each reaction-reaction was the exact same time as the last one.
This song is honestly my favorite, I wish it was a full length one. Still good though, and the self-analysis is great of course. I heard someone describe his motion during the scatting as "kermitlike" once and I can't get that out of my head now lol
This is my favorite thing from the special. Really blew my mind the first time I saw it, and it’s still so great.
seeing him do the "Wadda da da duh da" in the background every time lmaoooo
Honestly one of the best scenes in the film.
cant wait for him to react to this
This was one of the most relatable things from the special, holy shit. The whole thinking yourself over and over was brutal.
This was honestly one of the most powerful bits in the special for me. The way that each layer cuts deeper and deeper. It's such a clever way to depict self reflection and how destructive it can be to get too caught in your own head or in the context of covid... The lonliness
i love how in the bit just before he talks about how everyone reacts to everything and has to give an opinion to everything and how he sometimes hopes everyone could just shut up and then proceeds to do the exact same thing by reacting to a meaningless song and reacting to the reaction, creating a chain of reaction that is pretty much how every bit of information is treated nowadays - someone has to say something about something and then someone has to say something about what that someone has just said etc....
Love how Bo goes from a textbook clearly scripted reaction to (still scripted but more meta) becoming more and more disturbed to the point where when he's finally in danger of cracking he stops it right there.
As always, it's unexpected, it's clever, and it's funny. I love you man.
Love to see Bo put out a new special, and with somehow even more depth than previous ones
Bo Burnham is a national treasure, let's protect his beard.
