Socialism and communism are economic systems. Monarchy is a governing system. For example America's governing system is representative democracy and America's economic system is capitalism.
Some people struggle to establish that. Best to voice that boundary especially when you feel that emotions are high and it’s not going in a good direction.
@@joediditde it’s difficult for anyone to answer for all the possible outcomes and minute details of an alternative social order, especially when it’s not their full time job to do the work to flesh it out. Just to say, if it looks hard to defend here, it’s just employees attempting to reply off the cuff and identifying with a social party/movement doesn’t mean you have constructed a complete tome on its mechanics.
@@howdypartnahe can definitely see everyone’s camera before cutting to them- i’m sure it’s for comedic effect and to let you know why they’re not responding, agreed it makes me giggle everytime
every single time they say they’re gonna pull up a different image, and they just pull up that picture of the old woman who got murdered by the chiropractor i fall for it every SIGNLE time and it makes me lose it every single time. i’m sitting here sobbing over ethan showing his mom the tattoo stuff and pulling out that pic it’s just so funny
dan being the chosen one to iron out all of socialism for ethan to understand is so funny, he never asked for this roll but it is his for life now. stay strong queen.
Especially since I'm sure Dan has no intention on being some master debater or explain every aspect on how it would work. I would just throw my hands in the air, and say: ask a scholar lol
It's an uncomfortable conversation for any boss to have with their employees tbh, defending capitalism so vehemently when it goes directly against their best interest. On the other hand, I think if a business owner accepts that capitalism can be questioned, they must also question the morality of many decisions they've made/are still making, which is also uncomfortable. Basically it's uncomfortable for everyone involved ✌❤
I love Donna so much. Her energy just gives me life. She’s always so uplifting to Ethan. Telling him that he needs to change his picture because he doesn’t look like that. She wants people to see him looking his best. That’s legit mom love right there. Love when she calls in 🦋
Donna getting got by Producitons and her trying to block him, ultimately resulting in the greatest got that Producitons has achieved possibly ever was way too funny. I was dying the entire time.
"So should I talk about it with him or not?" "Its your show..." "..Well its OUR show" "No it's not." The irony levels off the charts, well done Dan that's exactly the point.
I’m glad Dan said it. I’m sad he was forced into a corner where he had to. Ethan was so out of line today and I’m getting so tired of his need to beat something to death to the point no one enjoys it, not even him.
@@joshn1678 honestly you make such a good point. He is such a liability to his own business. He has jeopardized his employees livelihoods because he can’t have any tact with how he says things and throws a little tantrum about it when people beg him to. While I don’t want to sell him short of what he’s been able to accomplish, the crew is almost entirely responsible for keeping the show afloat. Dan is truly a saint for tolerating what he has over the years.
i kinda dis. i love the crew but the fact id all of their skills can be replaced. and i bet the viewers would eventually get used to changes. but without ethan the show wont go on. kinda torn on this one
@@aleksandraszejnoga Sure, their skills can be replaced. If you've been watching since the beginning kind of a spicy take on Zach, Ian, and especially Dan, but sure, they're replacable. Does that give Ethan the right to patronize Dan on his political leanings every episode? After everything he's done for the show? Not much to think about imo. Ethan should keep his political commentary to comparing everything to Hitler
ye ethan eats the food like its a doctors apointment he doesnt get fun with it. eats the potato on its own? is he some sorta phycopath not gettin a bit of potato and beef in 1 bite
@@quixzz641 ye but its no suprise its bland. like when he gets a burger he doesnt take the meat out of the bun and eat it on its own then eat the bun? its just unsettling xD

I love Dan so much. I really think he's the only sane voice of reason on this podcast. And I'm not even talking about his political stance. I just love how he actually stands up to Ethan and questions the things he says and the shit he does over the years. H3 Podcast wouldn't be what it was without him and everybody knows this.
@@LetsPlayAceCraft but he did answer. Ethan wouldn't entertain it. He also said that if a company goes under employees wouldn't lose their house. He is ignorant, Dan would have to cover too much and with the attitude Ethan gives he makes it not possible.
@@doubtfullable Yes, and Ethan said so they get all the benefit with none of the risk. Who would be a business owner? And Dan has NO answer for this. Why would it be equal shares when the company does well, but when it fails only the owner gets fucked.
Ethan: “I want this society to work that’s why I’m asking questions.” Dan: *Answers Ethan’s question clearly and concisely* Ethan: “This doesn’t make any sense and there’s no way that would work.”
@@DragonDDark It was pretty clear. Dan said in a case where the employees of Ethan’s hypothetical company have an ownership share in the company, then they would take the hit in a lawsuit. Ethan just couldn’t fathom why employees would want to do that. In reality, these employees would be getting paid exponentially more than they would make if they didn’t have a share of ownership so they’d probably be more risk averse.
@@vincenzolavia9697 Exactly. All he did was take Dan's answer and apply it to CURRENT capitalist systems. He had zero interest in looking at it through a different lens where as you say, the revenue was shared more equally and fairly amongst the contributing parties, hence any liability would also be equally and fairly split. Dan made perfect sense, Ethan just doesn't want to be told that there are better ways of working where he isn't hoarding wealth while others who got him where he is are far less well off.
Ethan being called a weirdo by donna is hilarious. “Do you ever think god stays in heaven because he too fears what he created” or something like that.
Olivia said it “If he doesn’t do something horrible to her, she won’t write a song that would make people hate him.” Taylor said the same thing “if guys don’t do bad things, I won’t write songs about them doing bad things”
@@dm_1236 comprehension skills are needed. tell me where did she say that? or ever she told her fans to go after someone? she doesn't even reveal who the songs are about, it's all speculations and she can't control what is said in the media. she can only produce art that helps her process things which she does.
Yesssss they are so under appreciated! Imagine how much time she actually spends on these PowerPoints just for ethan to slide through half the slides without giving it any attention. Not particularly this one but especially the last one she did. He just ignored half the slides that she spent her time on! Love girl! 🤏🏻❤️
Question about fair use. My sister is deaf and I always thought she'd love this podcast. I was messing around with the idea of getting a green screen and camera and recording me signing everything. She loved the idea and suggested I make a channel and upload it for other deaf people to enjoy. The captions often get it very wrong. Would that be something that would get taken down for fair use? It would be a ton of work to do.
Ethan said, I'm pretty sure it was in an episode of Leftovers, that he doesn't mind people using footage from the channel as long as they're adding something to it. The other person's reply that suggested starting with clips is a good idea I think, even though I don't think they would have an issue with you signing whole episodes, but I think it's a smart way to both figure out the best and most comfortable way for yourself to do it, as well as giving them a chance to see what you're doing and that you're legit so that they'd be good with you taking full episodes without it just surprising them totally from nowhere.
With peace and love, I think it is better for Ethan to revisit the socialism convo when he's done some digging and reading into theory and examples of socialist practices and history. He's basing a large chunk of his viewpoint on random shit he's seen on twitter or in the subreddit and it's polluting what *could* be a reasonable worldview. He's never going to be anti-capitalist, and it is what it is. He's a business owner, we shouldn't expect him to be anti-cap. But if he's going to engage in these convos, he needs to do it from an informed point of view, which he has not up to this point. I look forward to more dynamic convos in the future on this topic, but for now, it's becoming insufferable.
@@Rat__Wifesocialist countries include Cuba, China, Venezuela, to name a few. And that turned out great for them 🤦. Czechoslovakia has been through so many political changes that the name has changed several times since the 70s.
I love you Ethan, but you're still approaching the socialism conversation with Capitalist principles. For instance, you asked "A business owner who defaults on the loan can lose their house is that the same for the employees." In a socialist society your home is guaranteed. Also "Companies run at a negative for years" but thats AFTER paying out to workers. It's not like the workers don't get paid in a company technically not making money. The reason companies like Google and Spotify run at a negative is because they're cooking their books and "investing" in other avenues to eventually make more money to also not have to pay (as much) tax on those reinvested profits. In a socialist system the workers would have say in those reinvestments.
Ethan you have great questions and I love that you’re asking them, but you’re not listening to the answers because you feel strongly about your position. Love you boo 😂🩷
stfu lmfao he is right. swifties take it too far, and she is rehashing old songs from what 2015 about old relationships? she is dragging men through the mud to her millions of fans from relationships that predate trump as president.... yeah..... zach was right
I think that a big part of why people think that Taylor Swift dates so many guys is that her fans make such a big deal whenever she is dating someone (example: this 40 minutes powerpoint over a complete non story) that if you are not her fan all you hear about is her dating someone new over and over. Even if she does date a normal amount, which Im sure she does, her fans really do amplify her love life greatly.
I’m sorry Ethan but you have to put it into perspective that you basically support all your employees lives. They don’t want to talk about things like that with their boss. I know you are their friend and all that but you have to recognize that power imbalance being in a management position when asking inquiries like this. Most of all though I want you to learn more about things like this, but please recognize the level you are on compared to the crew. All love ❤
@@Plutonium.2 What do you think hes going to do (that is detrimental for his workers) if he doest like the answers to his questions? Thats so insulting to ethan btw.. like you think he cant have a conversation with the crew because hes going to fuck them over somehow if he doesnt like what he hears. but go ahead..
I wish someone on the crew would tell Ethan to stfu about these random scenarios. The “what if” argument is soooo tiring. Was so satisfying to hear Dan say “it’s your show” and Ethan goes “it’s your show too!” dans response was GOLD - “no, it’s not”. Ethan has become so out of touch and these scenarios+ his logic prove it. lol peace and love but NO MORE POLITICS on a comedy podcast please. leave it for the leftovers episode, or until Hassan is over your bullshit scenarios just like Dan 😂✌🏼❤️
I’m not educated on this topic well enough to have a true opinion on what would work. However, I do find his what-if questions interesting because it personally gives me a little insight on both sides of the debate. I understand not wanting to have politics mixed in with the comedy though. I’m not always in the mood for these types of discussions, which is why I’m glad they have leftovers for when I am.
@@heatherfrank7433 He refuses to read political theory, which is the easiest ways to find answers to his endless what-ifs, and instead chooses to harass his employee lmfao.
@@noellethomas2589 I can see this point too. Again, I’m not educated on this topic enough to have even thought of that point. But, I still do find it a bit more palatable to listen to people who are friends and generally agree on most core values talk about this. I haven’t watched all of their conversations on this because work has been stressful and I’m not completely in the mood to listen to it all yet. Most content surrounding this that I’ve seen is between people who are on complete opposite ends of the political spectrum and don’t actually want to learn from the other person. I usually avoid those types of videos because the conflict makes me anxious which is what I’m trying to get away from when listening to UA-cam content lol. For people who have more political knowledge, I can see how this would be frustrating. I’m a nurse and was having a terrible time in the thick of the pandemic listening to lay-people debate medical issues when I found it so simple to just look at the credible, peer reviewed sources. So now that I’m looking at it from that perspective, I for sure see it being annoying for some people.
Chat shouldn't have been so cruel to Zach about the Taylor comment, but as a swiftie, I do wanna explain it a little bit. Many of Taylor's ex's are not hated by the Swiftie fandom at ALL, (taylor lautner, harry styles, tom hiddleston etc.) If they end amicably then there's no issue. Zach is NOT a misogynist but what he was saying is usually considered to be a misogynistic take. Like Ethan mentioned, Swifties are tired of hearing that "Taylor ruins the lives of every man she dates" when that simply isn't true. Even the ones Swifties DO dislike, John Mayer, Jake Gyllenhall, etc, are still employed and doing fine as far as I know. Zach I love ya, no homo. And great job to Olivia on the PowerPoint as always!!
jup. men dating around and singing about there relationships don't get nearly the reputation swift got (i mean- that's why the album is called that right?). Zack is not a misogynist, but this take is definitely stemming from misogynistic ideas, not from him, but generally as it flood the internet. peace and love, peace and love!
Obviously, every artist draws upon about their own experiences in their work. In my opinion, the difference with Taylor Swift is that she leaves all these Easter eggs and hints to directly show you who she is talking about in her songs, then the fans send hate their way, and she has never really condemned her fans from sending hate to people to my knowledge. Yes, no one's career has been ruined, but the minimal anonymity about the subject (I know she says she doesn't directly name drop, but "Dear John" and "Style"? Come on, now!) does set her work apart from many other artists. The hate in this aspect is definitely overblown, but writing off any questioning of this behavior as "misogynistic" is silly to me.
@@jaxr.s.4647 Of the two examples you use to demonstrate how she name drops men to send hate their way- one is Harry Styles who no Taylor Swift fans hate. The other is John Mayer, who dated a 19 year old swift when he was 32
@@jaxr.s.4647she has told her fans not to send hate though, and other artists fan bases have definitely sent hate to their partners/exes. people speculate whether or not theres easter eggs
@@reallandrover Sorry, I meant that she has claimed that she does not name drop people, but practically did with these two titles. Not trying to claim John Mayer was in the right!
@@RALL123456that’s irrelevant, Hasan is a great political analyst but not someone who will give you a full rundown of how a socialist society & economy will be organized, an economist like Richard Wolff would be able to provide detailed counters to these questions. Ethan is thinking about capitalist concepts in a void and trying to understand them in a socialist setting, you need to break some of the assumptions he has in his questions.
@@RALL123456right. Hasan is literally a polisci teacher in those moments, with incredible patience and well developed thought experiments/examples. Hasan just doesn't get the credit he deserves because he's a beautiful silly himbo who cusses a lot. Idk why that can't be taken seriously since he is literally the most qualified and experienced socialist they know.
i really appreciated how she didn’t start an argument with him then and there (because zach probably wouldn’t have reacted well and it would have been a huge thing) but instead made it obvious she didn’t agree with his take and wasnt going to engage. true professional queen behavior!
I want to take this time to show more love and appreciation for Dan. For someone who has the tittle of "hater" he sure has put up with Ethan for years now. I honestly don't believe there are many people out there who would be able to do the same job for this long. Remember guys. Dan is the QUEEN, he can do no wrong!
Dan finally got that Ethan just wants to be told he is right. He doesn’t want to hear an answer to his questions. If you answer he calls deflection or immediately creates a new scenario (which is deflection). ✌🏼❤
Ethan isn't exactly a scholar. He's not an idiot but he doesn't have a close relationship with how arguments are made, things like fallacies or presuppositions. Critical thinking and how people on the show aren't especially good at it is sometimes the funniest part of this show. It's one of the reasons that their curiosity about supernatural topics is so cringe but I will admit, sometimes funny. Watch the show long enough and you'll see the kind of magical thinking that is exactly how conspiracy theorists think.
@@HystericalCrueltyYou’re right, questions are okay. However, asking questions in bad faith and interrupting, deflecting, or blatantly ignoring answers is just annoying.
The fact that Ethan's reply to Zach's ominous prediction that Travis & Taylor's relationship is going "end bad" was "like OJ" had me dying 😂 literally the definition of being off the rails
I'm korean, the radish that Ethan likes so much is actually kimchi radish, not pickled! It so Michael Scott of him to say he doesnt like kimchi and then the first thing he eats is kimchi and loves it lol. So cool to see Ethan like and roast all the food my mom made for me as a kid. Its called Kkakdugi for everyone curious 깍두기
Haha so true and for those of you wondering to us Koreans kimchi and pickle are completely different. No Korean would call a kimchi a pickle and vice versa.
Ethan, to answer one of your last questions there would be state owned housing to fall back on. Your basic needs would also already be met. Any capital lost by individuals would pretty much be spending money. Also a lot of services and businesses would be nationalized if people want the services even if they operate at a loss. That's what taxes are for.
it’s so frustrating when Ethan isn’t listening to the explanations Dan is giving and is simply just waiting to respond. He wants to be right too bad to actually listen to the explanations he’s given
@H3Podcast happy you guys have this discussion. As a socialist I was pretty upset by your capitalist takes but listening to you guys talk makes me have hope for the future just because you guys are so respectful and open peace and love ❤️
@@H3Podcast Would love to see a theorist or an authority on the subject guest on the show (Leftovers maybe?) to engage with your questions more deeply ❤
Every time Ethan brings up socialism, I skip it. I feel like I’m at the dinner table with my two parents and their arguing and it’s awkward. Ethan is the parent that just won’t drop it. It’s beating a dead horse and killing the vibe. With peace and love - love this show, love Ethan, and love Dan the queen.
I think its funny he is taking the victory lap, Hasan has been anti-debate for too long and lost the ability to speak to anyone who doesnt already agree with him about politics. I'm sure Ethan will be done bringing it up after this week though
Agree with all the love for Ethan and the crew - but it does seem like Ethan isn’t asking the questions in good faith and that’s frustrating because he’s talking to people he respects disrespectfully, and it sounds like they’re feeling that.
Its the same fake learning that he gets from all the shitty alpha men he tries to convert. Its like yeah im hearing what you are saying but i dont care and i want to try poke as many holes in what youre saying as possible while never intending to learn or change my position.
And I don’t feel like it was genuine I think he thought up his idea over couple days of a “gotcha” moment and then tried to play it off. Really he has no idea what he’s talking abt on either side & has already decided what he thinks regardless
*Zach has a bad take* *then shuts down at ANY pushback* like? I agree ppl shouldn't dog pile in chat but to brush off ALL of the bad takes and become guarded when confronted. Like yes, what Zach was somewhat misogynistic but throwing the blame on chat time and time again? This is why I can't watch live, I NEED the skip button for moments like these. Zach IS an influencer- he's trying for a music career and doesn't want to be talked about? well very rock star to throw a temper tantrum. off this comment goes into the abyss and so does my annoyance for a man child.
@@ATOMIC_V155 the only person who seems to be defensive over a celebrity is you. My point is that if Zach who’s a musician can give criticism and feedback then so can I? Reread before you comment next time 🙄
@@ATOMIC_V155 yeah and Zach commenting “that relationship won’t last it’ll end up bad” is such a childish thing to say when those two people are actively dating?? Like who even talks like that? It’s also not a man’s place to say what’s misogynistic or not, idiot.
To answer all of Ethan‘s questions regarding socialism: Basically, you have to think outside of the framework of capitalism if you want to understand how things would (or rather: should) be done under socialism. That is the THEORY part. And next is the issue of adapting those non-capitalist solutions in the real world, which requires either a revolution or finding stable transitional states, gradually making changes while always keeping the system functional. That is the PRAXIS part. I feel it would really help these discussions to at least make that distinction
It’s interesting Ethan tends to have these scenarios begin from a lone capitalist creates a business then x, y, z. It’s like the focus is on how would he and his wife’s niche examples of production transition into a different form of organization. Which, ya know, just make it about potential pros/cons of Teddy Fresh and H3 as worker cooperatives rather than this grandiose interrogation of society as a whole. That would be much more interesting and productive.
I feel like that’s the hardest part to explain to uneducated people bc they are all focused on how “that wouldn’t be possible to implement all of this stuff immediately” when that’s not what the theory is saying 😭😭 just like how if a country was socialist you couldn’t naturally transition it to capitalism overnight but that’s not what anyone is saying or claiming. Honestly all that most American socialists want are social safety nets at this point 😭😭
@bobanoda there are 100% people who want a socialist system right now and are upset with Ethan over it. Ethan is already an advocate for social safety nets (still capitalist) and people (probably a loud minority) want more. Which is strange cause Ethan is admittedly apolitical and doesnt really have power (except over his own company, but his employees are happy and cared for aldy so)
thank you for moving Ethan around like a DVD logo at the end, it makes it feel a lot better to me. Ethan is so annoying sometimes but this makes it more palatable.
@@joshn1678weird comment. If the crew is so much more enjoyable than why watch the show? Just watch the crew on their own socials. And saying Ethan does no work is a wild thing to say, don’t think you would have that opinion if you’ve been watching since before the pod
@@ClaayK I mean... to be fair, the crew doesn't have their own podcast where they talk about random topics for a couple hrs. While I do still enjoy Ethan, my favs are Dan, Ian, and Sam. I also love the other crew members just fyi. To say go watch them on their socials is silly when they don't have a podcast where the crew interacts together. I agree on the "if you don't like it, don't watch." approach though, because seriously, if you don't enjoy it, why are you torturing yourself? Now I'm just thinking about them having an "after hours" crew podcast show. That would be so dope!
@@carijean37 I agree. But I just think it’s weird to say you only watch for thr care segments. Not saying you do. Just saying in general. But I mean people like Sam Ian and ab have a stream where they talk about random things if you didn’t know.

I wanna know why this ep doesnt involve bobby. He would so love sitting next to Ethan making silly comments about Korean food and cummy egg whites. Wouldve been SUCH a winning episode
Watching a wealthy employer desperately defend rich people and capitalism while making fun of people for daring to dream of a better system… is unintentionally a great advertisement for socialism
I love that y'all did a Korean food taste test on the eve of Korean Thanksgiving! It warms my heart to see Ethan enjoying the cubed radish kimchi (kkakdugi) cus that's my favorite kimchi! It would have been so fun if this was a collab with Bobby Lee!
As a hardcore swiftie Olivia did a fantastic job we stan. I do want to point out how different Travis is from all of her exes. She usually dates men in her same industry (music, film). He has his own money, own fame, own industry. Her past exes were weirdly jealous of her success in their industry. Travis is appreciative of her success which is why everyone is so excited.
I'm not an expert on politics and I'm frankly not educated enough about that stuff to label myself, but fuck man, capitalism has clearly not been working. 💀There is no "good" capitalism, no matter what America has brainwashed its citizens into believing, because it always entails exploitation. Capitalism results in the rich getting richer & reaching frankly obscene power and status, poor people & marginalized groups being more and more impoverished, workers losing more and more rights, and the environment getting more and more fucked up. Some things are getting better thanks to a lot of fighting and struggling, but some things are getting significantly worse. The sole fact that the 1% even exists while so many people live in poverty, should be enough convincing that something is really fucked up about this system. Most of this wealth was not even earned, it was inherited and built on the blood of workers or slaves. Surviving should not be expensive. Everybody should have the right to food and water, to a home, to a well paying job, to healthcare, to a secure pension, etc. All of which capitalism does not and will *never* provide.
So true I’ve done no reading I’m just starting manufactured consent for the first time. But it’s child brain stuff, if I did something that’s mine. If you do something that’s yours. If you do it better you get more/better bro I mean come on
i also don’t think ethan has thought of the repercussions capitalism has globally. no state exists in a vacuum, under capitalism the core nations will always exploit the periphery nations for labour and resources. he’s thinking strictly from a statist perspective which is ultimately pretty circular
No one said capitalism in it's current form is good. And the U.S. is not the entire world, social democracy is the most popular political ideology in Europe. In a perfect social democracy you would be provided all these things
@@-Djamba- capitalism in ANY form isn't good. like me and other comments said, it will always fall back on exploitation. it's quite literally designed that way. I think what makes people afraid to really condemn capitalism, is the conscious or subconscious fear of losing something. Either losing the money you've earned through hard work, losing the opportunity to earn money, or losing their democracy. But that's not what socialists are advocating for. The arguably best country to live in is Finland, and it's because they have so much socialist policies like low income inequality and high social support. They're not a socialist country, but they're not a capitalist one either. Its economy is a mix of socialism and social democracy, which is probably the best system people have come up with so far.
@@FuckTheUA-camUsernameChange Nearly all countries rely on trade to some extent. Ideally, in a social democracy, we would promote strong workers' rights internationally, responsible business conduct, fair trade practices, and cut ties with big corporations like Microsoft, Nestlé, H&M, etc. We should also assist third-world countries in achieving political and economic independence, as these countries are usually plagued by extreme corruption. Social democracies should also have strong environmental regulations and invest in sustainable energy, which would decrease the need for oil. For example, 98% of Norway's electricity comes from renewable sources, significantly reducing their dependence on oil. And Finland is essentially a capitalist country with social welfare programs. Its economy is primarily based on private ownership and free enterprise, and they would identify themselves as a social democracy. The difference with Sweden lies in the extent to which they adhere to socialist principles.
Your employees take a risk already just by being employed. They can be laid off or fired at any point and lose their homes and cars easily already. What's not to get?
also, you could even turn around the question. What is fair about only one person having to shoulder the risk? it's more fair if the whole company shares it. It also makes it way less likely for one person to lose their home. But like, I am not versed in corporate structures and shit so whatever
@@VegarcadeI think his brain just isn’t adjusting to the concept of a healthy socialist economy. I wouldn’t go as far as to call him a capitalist pig or anything but it’s probably a little hard to adjust your understanding of company ownership when you’re literally a company owner and make a ton of money from that company
@@martian_chanespecially when you’re the owner of a company and of course want to believe that you’re an ethical owner. Admitting that capitalism is unethical would mean admitting that you as the sole owner of a company is unethical and no one would want to do that
So tired of the small but vocal minority that wine about Olivia’s amazing PowerPoints. I feel bad that you don’t get to appreciate one of the best reoccurring segments on the show, but this podcast posts five THREE hour long episodes EVERY week. Not every segment will be to your liking. If you don’t like what you are seeing you don’t need to watch it. Stop complaining about it.

@@Kerttiseh, not a good argument. Just because there are vulnerable people in the world doesn’t make it okay to use them. At the end of the day those “employees” are impressionable fans of the pod, they want to be included and Jimmy is a person that is the string between them and their favorite show. But as I said, it doesn’t make it okay to use people just because they can’t advocate for themselves because they’re afraid of FOMO and don’t realize the power imbalance. You basically say that people who have more than enough money to pay for services should just abuse fans because they can.. with same logic we shouldn’t advocate for any underpaid and abused employees, like hospital workers, Amazon employees etc, since they “accepted” their faith and participate in something cool
taylor gets the worst shit whenever she ends up dating someone or breaks up with someone- that’s why they made that comment about Zach being misogynistic.

Might've made for some actually good content if Ethan actually tried to chomp on all the food. Instead this was possibly the worst mukbang ever filmed...
Jokes aside, I feel like Jimmie doesn't deserve this much attention, he's getting so much screentime for being racist and sexist. It's kind of upsetting to see a person like this being supported by Ethan. I know that "it is not that serious" but he is literally being encouraged to say these things.
He’s being paraded around as a relic from the past. His entire gimmick is the most derivative thing on earth. He’s just shitty don rickles. He’s so bad at the whole schtick though that nobody laughs with him, everybody laughs at him. I see where you’re coming from and do fear him getting actual encouragement from people who do end up laughing with him rather than at him…like if he got on Rogen or something…

Dan can't really be a true socialist/communist because Dan is a monarch. Dan is the QUEEN! He can't do nothing wrong.

Dan with a firm "i dont want to talk about this with you" boundary ON AIR to his EMPLOYER was impressive. King behaviour
I loved that so much. Boundaries need to be normalised!
Some people struggle to establish that. Best to voice that boundary especially when you feel that emotions are high and it’s not going in a good direction.
Which is fine. On the other hand, Socialism is just really hard to defend, because it's so flawed.

The role of a lifetime
This feels so inappropriate to corner your employees who are clearly uncomfortable. Dan keeps saying he doesn’t want to talk about it.
It's an uncomfortable conversation for any boss to have with their employees tbh, defending capitalism so vehemently when it goes directly against their best interest.
On the other hand, I think if a business owner accepts that capitalism can be questioned, they must also question the morality of many decisions they've made/are still making, which is also uncomfortable.
Basically it's uncomfortable for everyone involved ✌❤
I love Donna so much. Her energy just gives me life. She’s always so uplifting to Ethan. Telling him that he needs to change his picture because he doesn’t look like that. She wants people to see him looking his best. That’s legit mom love right there. Love when she calls in 🦋

@@aleksandraszejnoga Sure, their skills can be replaced. If you've been watching since the beginning kind of a spicy take on Zach, Ian, and especially Dan, but sure, they're replacable.

Dan: *Answers Ethan’s question clearly and concisely*
Ethan: “This doesn’t make any sense and there’s no way that would work.”
Lmao he wasn't clear at all.
THIS
Dan was so clear and ethan just talked right over him and then openly LIED about it. I was like dude am I really seeing this.
@@DragonDDark It was pretty clear. Dan said in a case where the employees of Ethan’s hypothetical company have an ownership share in the company, then they would take the hit in a lawsuit. Ethan just couldn’t fathom why employees would want to do that. In reality, these employees would be getting paid exponentially more than they would make if they didn’t have a share of ownership so they’d probably be more risk averse.
@@vincenzolavia9697 Exactly. All he did was take Dan's answer and apply it to CURRENT capitalist systems. He had zero interest in looking at it through a different lens where as you say, the revenue was shared more equally and fairly amongst the contributing parties, hence any liability would also be equally and fairly split. Dan made perfect sense, Ethan just doesn't want to be told that there are better ways of working where he isn't hoarding wealth while others who got him where he is are far less well off.
‘He’d toss me around like a rag doll’ 😂 the way Ethan understands woman thirst is immaculate

Question about fair use. My sister is deaf and I always thought she'd love this podcast. I was messing around with the idea of getting a green screen and camera and recording me signing everything. She loved the idea and suggested I make a channel and upload it for other deaf people to enjoy. The captions often get it very wrong. Would that be something that would get taken down for fair use? It would be a ton of work to do.
Translating a 3 hour show with like 6 different people would be a herculean task. Fair use aside, I don't see that working out.
Ethan said, I'm pretty sure it was in an episode of Leftovers, that he doesn't mind people using footage from the channel as long as they're adding something to it. The other person's reply that suggested starting with clips is a good idea I think, even though I don't think they would have an issue with you signing whole episodes, but I think it's a smart way to both figure out the best and most comfortable way for yourself to do it, as well as giving them a chance to see what you're doing and that you're legit so that they'd be good with you taking full episodes without it just surprising them totally from nowhere.
With peace and love, I think it is better for Ethan to revisit the socialism convo when he's done some digging and reading into theory and examples of socialist practices and history. He's basing a large chunk of his viewpoint on random shit he's seen on twitter or in the subreddit and it's polluting what *could* be a reasonable worldview. He's never going to be anti-capitalist, and it is what it is. He's a business owner, we shouldn't expect him to be anti-cap. But if he's going to engage in these convos, he needs to do it from an informed point of view, which he has not up to this point. I look forward to more dynamic convos in the future on this topic, but for now, it's becoming insufferable.
THANK YOU !!!! I was thinking the exact same thing.
very very well put
you articulated my feelings perfectly
Do you have any races for someone wanting to learn more? I’m particularly interested in the examples and history
@@Rat__Wifesocialist countries include Cuba, China, Venezuela, to name a few. And that turned out great for them 🤦. Czechoslovakia has been through so many political changes that the name has changed several times since the 70s.
I love you Ethan, but you're still approaching the socialism conversation with Capitalist principles. For instance, you asked "A business owner who defaults on the loan can lose their house is that the same for the employees." In a socialist society your home is guaranteed.
Also "Companies run at a negative for years" but thats AFTER paying out to workers. It's not like the workers don't get paid in a company technically not making money. The reason companies like Google and Spotify run at a negative is because they're cooking their books and "investing" in other avenues to eventually make more money to also not have to pay (as much) tax on those reinvested profits. In a socialist system the workers would have say in those reinvestments.
That’s such an easy to digest way to break things down!!! It’s nice to see people in the comments putting these things into words that I can’t!

I think that a big part of why people think that Taylor Swift dates so many guys is that her fans make such a big deal whenever she is dating someone (example: this 40 minutes powerpoint over a complete non story) that if you are not her fan all you hear about is her dating someone new over and over. Even if she does date a normal amount, which Im sure she does, her fans really do amplify her love life greatly.
i really love having donna on (especially over zoom) because it's always so silly and wholesome. we love donna 🫶🦋
I’m sorry Ethan but you have to put it into perspective that you basically support all your employees lives. They don’t want to talk about things like that with their boss.

I’m not educated on this topic well enough to have a true opinion on what would work. However, I do find his what-if questions interesting because it personally gives me a little insight on both sides of the debate. I understand not wanting to have politics mixed in with the comedy though. I’m not always in the mood for these types of discussions, which is why I’m glad they have leftovers for when I am.
@@heatherfrank7433 He refuses to read political theory, which is the easiest ways to find answers to his endless what-ifs, and instead chooses to harass his employee lmfao.
@@noellethomas2589 I can see this point too. Again, I’m not educated on this topic enough to have even thought of that point. But, I still do find it a bit more palatable to listen to people who are friends and generally agree on most core values talk about this. I haven’t watched all of their conversations on this because work has been stressful and I’m not completely in the mood to listen to it all yet. Most content surrounding this that I’ve seen is between people who are on complete opposite ends of the political spectrum and don’t actually want to learn from the other person. I usually avoid those types of videos because the conflict makes me anxious which is what I’m trying to get away from when listening to UA-cam content lol. For people who have more political knowledge, I can see how this would be frustrating. I’m a nurse and was having a terrible time in the thick of the pandemic listening to lay-people debate medical issues when I found it so simple to just look at the credible, peer reviewed sources. So now that I’m looking at it from that perspective, I for sure see it being annoying for some people.
Ethan’s 4-fingered chopstick method is truly wild. Stab. Twist. Pray. Eat.
My anxiety was stressed out watching the chopsticks lmao
😂 the 4 finger grip and still unstable & shaky, at first I thought it cut to AB or Ian’s hands (with peace and love)
Chat shouldn't have been so cruel to Zach about the Taylor comment, but as a swiftie, I do wanna explain it a little bit. Many of Taylor's ex's are not hated by the Swiftie fandom at ALL, (taylor lautner, harry styles, tom hiddleston etc.) If they end amicably then there's no issue. Zach is NOT a misogynist but what he was saying is usually considered to be a misogynistic take. Like Ethan mentioned, Swifties are tired of hearing that "Taylor ruins the lives of every man she dates" when that simply isn't true. Even the ones Swifties DO dislike, John Mayer, Jake Gyllenhall, etc, are still employed and doing fine as far as I know. Zach I love ya, no homo. And great job to Olivia on the PowerPoint as always!!
jup. men dating around and singing about there relationships don't get nearly the reputation swift got (i mean- that's why the album is called that right?). Zack is not a misogynist, but this take is definitely stemming from misogynistic ideas, not from him, but generally as it flood the internet. peace and love, peace and love!
Obviously, every artist draws upon about their own experiences in their work. In my opinion, the difference with Taylor Swift is that she leaves all these Easter eggs and hints to directly show you who she is talking about in her songs, then the fans send hate their way, and she has never really condemned her fans from sending hate to people to my knowledge. Yes, no one's career has been ruined, but the minimal anonymity about the subject (I know she says she doesn't directly name drop, but "Dear John" and "Style"? Come on, now!) does set her work apart from many other artists. The hate in this aspect is definitely overblown, but writing off any questioning of this behavior as "misogynistic" is silly to me.
@@jaxr.s.4647 Of the two examples you use to demonstrate how she name drops men to send hate their way- one is Harry Styles who no Taylor Swift fans hate. The other is John Mayer, who dated a 19 year old swift when he was 32

I love your mom. She is so wholesome and fun! She provided the laughs I needed right now. Thanks Donna!
Ethan, to answer one of your last questions there would be state owned housing to fall back on. Your basic needs would also already be met. Any capital lost by individuals would pretty much be spending money. Also a lot of services and businesses would be nationalized if people want the services even if they operate at a loss. That's what taxes are for.
Ah great point
it’s so frustrating when Ethan isn’t listening to the explanations Dan is giving and is simply just waiting to respond. He wants to be right too bad to actually listen to the explanations he’s given
Thanks for answering my question.
@H3Podcast happy you guys have this discussion. As a socialist I was pretty upset by your capitalist takes but listening to you guys talk makes me have hope for the future just because you guys are so respectful and open peace and love ❤️
@@H3Podcast Would love to see a theorist or an authority on the subject guest on the show (Leftovers maybe?) to engage with your questions more deeply ❤
Ethan: I love Kenny smiles
Dan: No.. you don’t
😭
how the hell Ethan managed to mispronounce Adam Sandler is beyond me. It's honestly a gift at this point.
it made me laugh so hard
Not AB trying to ease the tension 🤣
Every time Ethan brings up socialism, I skip it. I feel like I’m at the dinner table with my two parents and their arguing and it’s awkward. Ethan is the parent that just won’t drop it. It’s beating a dead horse and killing the vibe. With peace and love - love this show, love Ethan, and love Dan the queen.
I think its funny he is taking the victory lap, Hasan has been anti-debate for too long and lost the ability to speak to anyone who doesnt already agree with him about politics. I'm sure Ethan will be done bringing it up after this week though
Agree with all the love for Ethan and the crew - but it does seem like Ethan isn’t asking the questions in good faith and that’s frustrating because he’s talking to people he respects disrespectfully, and it sounds like they’re feeling that.
Its the same fake learning that he gets from all the shitty alpha men he tries to convert. Its like yeah im hearing what you are saying but i dont care and i want to try poke as many holes in what youre saying as possible while never intending to learn or change my position.
@@aliciah.485 yesss this 100%. Talking to people he respects disrespectfully. boom.
Ethan’s energy during the Taylor swift and her bf segment was the same as mine. It’s giving high schoolers dating vibes.
Poor Dan. Ethan really attacked him at the end and pushed the conversation past when Dan didn’t want to have the conversation
And I don’t feel like it was genuine I think he thought up his idea over couple days of a “gotcha” moment and then tried to play it off. Really he has no idea what he’s talking abt on either side & has already decided what he thinks regardless
Crybabies
@@manyari432 Fr. Ethan is still at the capitalism equals trade level of political understanding lmao
somebody enroll ethan in to a polisci class asap lol. ethan has a lot of great questions that are obviously not meant for chat
For the love of god stop letting Ethan run the slide shows. He blows through them and bounces back and forth between slides it drives me nuts 🤣😅
ADHD FTW
You gotta force Dan to make a drama PowerPoint one day.
*Zach has a bad take* *then shuts down at ANY pushback* like? I agree ppl shouldn't dog pile in chat but to brush off ALL of the bad takes and become guarded when confronted. Like yes, what Zach was somewhat misogynistic but throwing the blame on chat time and time again? This is why I can't watch live, I NEED the skip button for moments like these. Zach IS an influencer- he's trying for a music career and doesn't want to be talked about? well very rock star to throw a temper tantrum. off this comment goes into the abyss and so does my annoyance for a man child.
This!! They do full PowerPoints on other influencers but h3 cast are off limits 😒
@@ATOMIC_V155 the only person who seems to be defensive over a celebrity is you. My point is that if Zach who’s a musician can give criticism and feedback then so can I? Reread before you comment next time 🙄
@@ATOMIC_V155 yeah and Zach commenting “that relationship won’t last it’ll end up bad” is such a childish thing to say when those two people are actively dating?? Like who even talks like that? It’s also not a man’s place to say what’s misogynistic or not, idiot.
To answer all of Ethan‘s questions regarding socialism: Basically, you have to think outside of the framework of capitalism if you want to understand how things would (or rather: should) be done under socialism. That is the THEORY part. And next is the issue of adapting those non-capitalist solutions in the real world, which requires either a revolution or finding stable transitional states, gradually making changes while always keeping the system functional. That is the PRAXIS part. I feel it would really help these discussions to at least make that distinction
It’s interesting Ethan tends to have these scenarios begin from a lone capitalist creates a business then x, y, z. It’s like the focus is on how would he and his wife’s niche examples of production transition into a different form of organization. Which, ya know, just make it about potential pros/cons of Teddy Fresh and H3 as worker cooperatives rather than this grandiose interrogation of society as a whole. That would be much more interesting and productive.
I feel like that’s the hardest part to explain to uneducated people bc they are all focused on how “that wouldn’t be possible to implement all of this stuff immediately” when that’s not what the theory is saying 😭😭 just like how if a country was socialist you couldn’t naturally transition it to capitalism overnight but that’s not what anyone is saying or claiming.
Honestly all that most American socialists want are social safety nets at this point 😭😭
@bobanoda there are 100% people who want a socialist system right now and are upset with Ethan over it.
Ethan is already an advocate for social safety nets (still capitalist) and people (probably a loud minority) want more.
Which is strange cause Ethan is admittedly apolitical and doesnt really have power (except over his own company, but his employees are happy and cared for aldy so)
thank you for moving Ethan around like a DVD logo at the end, it makes it feel a lot better to me. Ethan is so annoying sometimes but this makes it more palatable.
objectifying ethan as he rambles just to hear himself talk while everyone already tuned out, but as a dvd screensaver, pls
@@joshn1678weird comment. If the crew is so much more enjoyable than why watch the show? Just watch the crew on their own socials. And saying Ethan does no work is a wild thing to say, don’t think you would have that opinion if you’ve been watching since before the pod
@@ClaayK I mean... to be fair, the crew doesn't have their own podcast where they talk about random topics for a couple hrs. While I do still enjoy Ethan, my favs are Dan, Ian, and Sam. I also love the other crew members just fyi. To say go watch them on their socials is silly when they don't have a podcast where the crew interacts together. I agree on the "if you don't like it, don't watch." approach though, because seriously, if you don't enjoy it, why are you torturing yourself?
Now I'm just thinking about them having an "after hours" crew podcast show. That would be so dope!
@@carijean37 I agree. But I just think it’s weird to say you only watch for thr care segments. Not saying you do. Just saying in general. But I mean people like Sam Ian and ab have a stream where they talk about random things if you didn’t know.
@@ClaayK I def don't only watch for the crew. Also, I didn't know Sam and Ian have been streaming? I follow them on Twitch but never get the notifications even though I have them turned on, so I just assumed they made the channels but never actually stream lol. I'm out and about atm but will for sure check up on their Twitch channels when I get home, so thank you for that! 😊 Twitch sucks so bad on mobile that they've really got to get it together, lol.
I wanna know why this ep doesnt involve bobby. He would so love sitting next to Ethan making silly comments about Korean food and cummy egg whites. Wouldve been SUCH a winning episode
i was eating a korean dish today after ethans tasting and when i saw that my egg had a bit of a wobbly white i said out loud oh no its cummy 😭
@@aleksandraszejnoga how did it rank on the Cummy Scale though?
Dan is around my age yet I feel like he's my dad and shouldn't piss him off, not because he's angry but disappointed.
“YOU THINK TAYLOR SWIFT IS A-….”
…. Button screen
My favorite part of todays show 😭
The button is so good
timestamp?
Ethan made me a socialist with his attitude
😅😅
Watching a wealthy employer desperately defend rich people and capitalism while making fun of people for daring to dream of a better system… is unintentionally a great advertisement for socialism
I love that y'all did a Korean food taste test on the eve of Korean Thanksgiving! It warms my heart to see Ethan enjoying the cubed radish kimchi (kkakdugi) cus that's my favorite kimchi! It would have been so fun if this was a collab with Bobby Lee!
As a hardcore swiftie Olivia did a fantastic job we stan. I do want to point out how different Travis is from all of her exes. She usually dates men in her same industry (music, film). He has his own money, own fame, own industry. Her past exes were weirdly jealous of her success in their industry. Travis is appreciative of her success which is why everyone is so excited.
I'm not an expert on politics and I'm frankly not educated enough about that stuff to label myself, but fuck man, capitalism has clearly not been working. 💀There is no "good" capitalism, no matter what America has brainwashed its citizens into believing, because it always entails exploitation. Capitalism results in the rich getting richer & reaching frankly obscene power and status, poor people & marginalized groups being more and more impoverished, workers losing more and more rights, and the environment getting more and more fucked up. Some things are getting better thanks to a lot of fighting and struggling, but some things are getting significantly worse. The sole fact that the 1% even exists while so many people live in poverty, should be enough convincing that something is really fucked up about this system. Most of this wealth was not even earned, it was inherited and built on the blood of workers or slaves. Surviving should not be expensive. Everybody should have the right to food and water, to a home, to a well paying job, to healthcare, to a secure pension, etc. All of which capitalism does not and will *never* provide.
So true I’ve done no reading I’m just starting manufactured consent for the first time. But it’s child brain stuff, if I did something that’s mine. If you do something that’s yours. If you do it better you get more/better bro I mean come on
i also don’t think ethan has thought of the repercussions capitalism has globally. no state exists in a vacuum, under capitalism the core nations will always exploit the periphery nations for labour and resources. he’s thinking strictly from a statist perspective which is ultimately pretty circular
No one said capitalism in it's current form is good. And the U.S. is not the entire world, social democracy is the most popular political ideology in Europe. In a perfect social democracy you would be provided all these things
@@-Djamba- capitalism in ANY form isn't good. like me and other comments said, it will always fall back on exploitation. it's quite literally designed that way. I think what makes people afraid to really condemn capitalism, is the conscious or subconscious fear of losing something. Either losing the money you've earned through hard work, losing the opportunity to earn money, or losing their democracy. But that's not what socialists are advocating for. The arguably best country to live in is Finland, and it's because they have so much socialist policies like low income inequality and high social support. They're not a socialist country, but they're not a capitalist one either. Its economy is a mix of socialism and social democracy, which is probably the best system people have come up with so far.
@@FuckTheUA-camUsernameChange Nearly all countries rely on trade to some extent. Ideally, in a social democracy, we would promote strong workers' rights internationally, responsible business conduct, fair trade practices, and cut ties with big corporations like Microsoft, Nestlé, H&M, etc. We should also assist third-world countries in achieving political and economic independence, as these countries are usually plagued by extreme corruption.
Social democracies should also have strong environmental regulations and invest in sustainable energy, which would decrease the need for oil. For example, 98% of Norway's electricity comes from renewable sources, significantly reducing their dependence on oil.
And Finland is essentially a capitalist country with social welfare programs. Its economy is primarily based on private ownership and free enterprise, and they would identify themselves as a social democracy. The difference with Sweden lies in the extent to which they adhere to socialist principles.
Your employees take a risk already just by being employed. They can be laid off or fired at any point and lose their homes and cars easily already. What's not to get?
also, you could even turn around the question. What is fair about only one person having to shoulder the risk? it's more fair if the whole company shares it. It also makes it way less likely for one person to lose their home. But like, I am not versed in corporate structures and shit so whatever
@@saal0 everyone is already taking on the risk, that's my point.
@@VegarcadeI think his brain just isn’t adjusting to the concept of a healthy socialist economy. I wouldn’t go as far as to call him a capitalist pig or anything but it’s probably a little hard to adjust your understanding of company ownership when you’re literally a company owner and make a ton of money from that company
@@martian_chanespecially when you’re the owner of a company and of course want to believe that you’re an ethical owner. Admitting that capitalism is unethical would mean admitting that you as the sole owner of a company is unethical and no one would want to do that
The donna segment had me rolling 😂😂 i was waiting for her to piece it all together
So tired of the small but vocal minority that wine about Olivia’s amazing PowerPoints. I feel bad that you don’t get to appreciate one of the best reoccurring segments on the show, but this podcast posts five THREE hour long episodes EVERY week. Not every segment will be to your liking. If you don’t like what you are seeing you don’t need to watch it. Stop complaining about it.
hilarious to hear Ethan say "it's OUR show" after defending capitalism to his own employees lmfao
Then dan hit him with "No its not" 😂
That was so ignorant of him fr
@@HuiEtiquette he was ice cold with that line too. 💯💯💯💯
Ethan being hypocritical? Who would’ve thought! 😮
He was deffo being sarcastic 😂
on a positive note at least it’s not like Jimmy’s team will lose their pay cheques, on a less positive note it’s only because they don’t make one with him to begin with
“give him 10 dollars or something”
@@joshn1678 me neither, I feel like he's allowed to be like this because the team likes him and he is labelled as "just old fashioned".
@@joshn1678 hes using people that want to be used, i dont understand why people whine about it. its not like hes hiring people and then not paying them, theyre h3 fans who just want to do some cool stuff for free
lmao i chokedddddd
@@Kerttiseh, not a good argument. Just because there are vulnerable people in the world doesn’t make it okay to use them. At the end of the day those “employees” are impressionable fans of the pod, they want to be included and Jimmy is a person that is the string between them and their favorite show. But as I said, it doesn’t make it okay to use people just because they can’t advocate for themselves because they’re afraid of FOMO and don’t realize the power imbalance. You basically say that people who have more than enough money to pay for services should just abuse fans because they can.. with same logic we shouldn’t advocate for any underpaid and abused employees, like hospital workers, Amazon employees etc, since they “accepted” their faith and participate in something cool
Ethan saying he hates Kimchi and then absolutely loving the Kimchi and nobody knowing he's eating Kimchi 😭
I love any segment with Donna! She’s hilarious
Ethan saying that Travis Kelce would "probably toss me around like a rag doll" was hilarious & didn't get the reaction it deserved.
We stan our submissive & breedable podcast host 🙏
“It’s our show”. “No it’s not” :|||
Lmaooo Dan
Poor Cam.
Him saying "Love gets all the food" made me laugh but feel bad for him.
Pickled radish you're eating there is called kakduggi. It's one of the many types of kimchi that Koreans eat. And Banchan translates to side dish.
taylor gets the worst shit whenever she ends up dating someone or breaks up with someone- that’s why they made that comment about Zach being misogynistic.
Male singers never get the same attention or treatment that Taylor gets when it comes to relationships. It’s always tiring hearing people say “oh she’s gonna write a good song/album when they break up” like please come up with a new joke.
But love you Zach, I don’t mean anything bad towards you ❤
Yup! Zach himself isnt a misogynist but the take is rooted in misogyny
How many "what about the rich?" moments are we gonna have from Ethan? 😅
I think he enjoys riling up the audience.
@@Plutonium.2I mean why are y’all picking on him for being rich tho..?
@@Plutonium.2 he's definitely setting rhetorical traps and this time dan didnt bite and I respect the shit outta him for setting a hard boundary especially with his boss even if his boss is his friend and also a cool but out of touch rich guy. ethan clearly has a complex but I cant exactly put my finger on it. that's why he wont even stop talking or waiting to talk about it and brings it up out of nowhere to their POV but he's been cooking this thought a long time but still not absorbing the 2 sides of a conversation bit. the dvd screen saver makes the one sided rhetorical bad faith questions way more palatble and funny again.
AB having been pre-med and not knowing what asphyxiation means is concerning
Ethan has gotta start doing his own research and stop asking his employees lmao.
If Ethan is serious about learning more about Socialism, why not bring a dude like Richard Wolff on again to ask these questions?
They did on leftovers
He didn't really ask him about socialism though if memory serves they were after his analysis on the Ukraine/Russia conflict
isnt hasan the biggest lefty streamer why not ask him?
@@animeking17 He did but Ethan doesn't like to listen. And Hasan is just a twitch streamer, RIchard Wolff is an academic in this field. And tbh Hasan uses too much kiddy gloves when talking to Ethan, especially since Ethan acts like a random grey name chatter
He is actually pro-Russian mixed with socialism so I wouldn’t want to learn socialism from that guy.
Ethan upset about eating a squid when he’s literally eaten something called a “Meat Mountain”😭
The hypocrisy of ordering loads of food for taste testing, not putting half of it in your mouth and throwing it all away was some real baby behavior and really embarrassing to watch... Might've made for some actually good content if Ethan actually tried to chomp on all the food. Instead this was possibly the worst mukbang ever filmed...
@@Goblexterhow is he supposed to try it all if he finished every dish? If you think the crew didn’t finish the rest you’re very wrong lol
Jokes aside, I feel like Jimmie doesn't deserve this much attention, he's getting so much screentime for being racist and sexist. It's kind of upsetting to see a person like this being supported by Ethan.
I know that "it is not that serious" but he is literally being encouraged to say these things.
He’s being paraded around as a relic from the past. His entire gimmick is the most derivative thing on earth. He’s just shitty don rickles. He’s so bad at the whole schtick though that nobody laughs with him, everybody laughs at him. I see where you’re coming from and do fear him getting actual encouragement from people who do end up laughing with him rather than at him…like if he got on Rogen or something…
@@charlieh3510 yeah I mean it's clear that he would do everything to get attention so if the "red pill" community starts liking him he could start staying even more messed up stuff
It could also be bad for him mentally, with the histrionics
@@V4rya oh that's true
My dog Lincoln, a toy size Yorkie, was stolen out of my parents yard in 2014. He was my whole world. I got him for a birthday gift.... I'm 32 now and it still hurts so freaking bad. I took a photo copy of his paw prints. I'm getting them tattooed once i decide where. I think Ethans tattoo will turn out great. A very sweet sentiment to honor shredder. 💔
