We had so much fun having our friends, Darcy & Jer on this week's episode! This was actually the first time we've ever interviewed someone before so go easy on us! We can't wait to hear what you thought of this episode...should we do more interviews in the future?! If so, would you mind giving some suggestions of what guests you'd like to see on a future episode? Sound off in the comments below! ❤
The Vanwives are one obvious alternative. There are some interesting angles. cheers! / CS
Daniel Erik, es un encanto, ahora anda sólo pues acabó su relación hace pocos meses, estaría bien que viera a nuevos amigos como vosotros, seguro que salía muy animado 💕🌱🌿✨️ y se sorprenderá gratamente si lo llamáis
Natural interviewers
I can not believe that was an hour! Regardless, it was simply delicious. Thanks so much for the intro to two new friends. 👍🏼♥️🇨🇦
That was fabulous episode of Tangents! Loved Darcy & Jer, and loved the four of you together. It was like being a part of a comfortable evening sitting around with friends and just gabbing! 🧔♂️🧔♂️👨🦰👨🦱
It was such a treat to capture an hour of our never ending conversations. Tolerate you boys ❤❤❤
Have you guys ever thought of doing a show in Newfoundland? We would love to see your show and meet you both.
Great podcast. You two are a hoot
Okay, now I know why You don't give us Yuma-content any more...Your just jelous that we prefer her silly cute fluff-face😢
No, for real, I thought it was a joke you started with an acount for her.
Loved what You said about bisexuals😘.
When I was young and lesbians told me I had to" decide", I am just trying it out for fun, to make myself more imteresting for boys, , ...(add stereotypes) I was so hurt. That made me avoid lesbians and miss a a big part of what's me (I hope I You can understand what I mean, it's not my mothertongue). I think it is much easier now, but it is still not as it should be.
I think when we'd have had internet, queer TV-shows like "sex education" or "heartstoppers" it would have made a difference.
So as I was never unsecure about my sexuality, I was the girl selling lesbian newspapers at my smalltowns school in the early nineties but then was excluded by the cool metropolian lesbians, because I prefered to wear dresses, laces, high heels and make-up AND to fuck with boys also.
So I always ended up having this tragic affairs with straight girls, that didn't want to come out😂😂😂
And then talked about with my gay best friend😂.
Unfortunatly he died later😢
Maybe that's why I ❤ watching your videos, because it sometimes feels like a good parasocial relationship should be; like I could imagine just hanging out with some friends, smoking weed and getting totally silly, making jokes about random things and nearly die of laughter in the end. Haaach...😊
Don't know this young guys you visited (There's not much I know about Canada , I loved the Anne of Green Gables Books as a child and they invented Maple Sirup), but it was vety comforting to listen to All of You together.
Lot's of love from Berlin/Germany 😘🤗
I enjoyed seeing you do this, with another couple. I want to do this, too. This has been an excellent coaching. ☺️
I am a 77 year old Christian great grandmother and it makes me sad to think there are different communities for people. We are all made by God and he loves each one of us the same. One of my grandson and his husband are so much like you both. They don’t go clubbing and all of the other things that some do and they are happy doing so. Love is love and I am just as proud of their successes as I am my other 3 grandchildren. Love you both and I can’t wait until Wednesday for the podcast and Sunday for the video. Love your new home too.
“Todd can talk the paint of the walls.” 😅😂🤣😁😅
Hahaha SO true though!
My friends tell me I can make your ears bleed 😁
OMG LMAO
Listening to Tyler trying to reign in this rodeo was Awesome! I can't believe my two favorite UA-cam couples are together. Yay!
Three wild steers who know the ropes... I think he handled it splendidly. Next time, stock up on water pistols, and duck.🤣💖
cheers! / CS
Hahaha trying and failing, I might add LOL
I soooo get why Darcy and Jer are together, just like you 2 boys they balance eachother out so well, LOVE IT!!!
Laughed so hard! Y’all need to take this foursome on the road! 🖤
Maybe one day 👀
My iPad just tried to call Grace! You guys are all so Canadian💚 both channels, darcy’s and Jer’s and Tyler and Todd kept me sane through the pandemic… I’m old, I live alone, I live in the woods, I don’t have a car, and I don’t have close family so the totality of my life for three years was watching UA-cam videos, playing with my dog and living vicariously through you guys…Thanks for keeping me “sorta” sane lol
Siri said “Calling Grace” and I ran to my phone which was in the other room! LOL 😂
I LOVE this collab, beyond my wildest dreams
SO happy you enjoyed it!!!
This was classic! 😂So much fun and I really enjoyed getting to know more about Darcy and Jer. Thank you for this collaboration.
I have not heard of these 2 guys before (I'm from the UK) they are hilarious. Fantastic podcast.
This podcast was so much fun. I love Darcy and Jer! I have watched them for a long time and to know that you are friends fills my heart so much! I am a 66 year old straight woman that dosen't care who or what anyone loves.I know great content when I see it, that is why I'm here. You guys need to do more collaborations. Thanks for the cup of tea. Love you all!❤
So glad you enjoyed the conversation!
This was my “cup of tea”. Thanks for giving me a moment with both of you and allowing me to sip my tea in good company. I love y’all. Donna from Texas
Thank you for coming along, so happy you enjoyed the episode Donna!
I look forward to your videos, "I show up to watch you because of your love and caring behavior towards each other" it confirms to me there are good people out there and gives me faith in humankind.
THE collab of a gaylifetime!! I have been HOPING for this one! …especially after Darcy poo’d on your airbnb! LMAO🤣
LOL....and flooded our basement
@@tangentswithtylerandtodd i mean… I wasn’t gonna say it out loud but….
LOL!!
I really resonated with the part about working after a tragedy because you have to. The day my common law husband died I had to work at the place we met and where we were supposed to get married. It was a hard day, but bills had to get paid. Thanks for recognizing the difficulty of survival.
THE TEA.OMG. I FEEL SO SEEN. being put into a box, being told I "am actully just a lesbien; no-one can be bi/pan"
Yes! “Looking for joy and finding Tyler and Todd” is exactly how I stumbled across y’all. I’ve never looked back! Y’all continue to provide a bright spot in my life even if things are going great, and especially if things aren’t.
Right? They’re such a gift
@@darcyandjer I feel the same about you and Jer! Love your content and I think I just discovered that I might also have a touch of the “ADHD” from this podcast. If a story can’t be told without the back stories of the back stories, then.. I’m in!
I mean, seriously! You don’t tell a joke by saying the punchline first! I mean you can, here, I’ll go first, “I saw a rabbit today.” (It’s an exciting story, yes?) But the reason why seeing a rabbit is meaningful would be a 42 page manifesto.
Tyler valiantly bringing the guys back to the topic...😂 love these guys together def need more collabs
Desperately trying hahahah
And then forgetting what the question was - perfect!
There are activities I don’t want to waste time with and activities that I love to spend time doing. Both of your channels belong to the latter group. I look forward to each and every episode and you never disappoint - just like this episode, another entertaining chat. Thanks, guys ❤
❤
In your regular videos, I appreciate how you talk to the camera like it's really friends on FaceTime. It sets your videos apart.
SO MUCH FUN! ! ! ! You guys are so warm & welcoming, just can't get enough. As a world class introvert, your work always makes me feel part of something wonderful. Loved meeting Darcy & Jer, the four of you made my week! ❤❤❤❤
I LOVED this! I didn't expect the guests to be Darcy &Jer. So much fun!
I think we ALL struggle to feel we belong, regardless of any label. Finding your tribe is hard.
I am so excited for this. From the moment I saw the tiktok of you four together I knew something awesome this way comes. I cannot wait!!!
OMGOSH how fun!!! Darcy & Jer seriously just remind me of SLIGHTLY older versions of you two! No wonder you're such great friends! This was great!❤🐾🐱🐾❤️
Hi Jer, Darcy, Todd and Tyler, Thanks again for a wonderful episode of like minded people enjoying life. You may remember that I am almost 80 years old and I feel so energized when I watch your Sunday videos and now Tangents. I was not familiar with Darcy and Jer but now am happy to have found them and I will certainly be following them as well. I know I am rambling but my heart is so filled with gratitude for having you guys in my life....I love you and thanks again for everything...🥰...oh hell I almost forgot .... give the fur babies a hug...I love them so much❤❤❤
That really means a lot to us, thank you so much ❤️
Oh Fun🎉 Loving Darcy and Jer!! Added their channel to my collection and looking forward to exploring their videos!! Much love to the Tyler and Todd community, all fur babies and special healing love to Charlie! Love how the Lake House is looking!!!❤❤❤
I've been watching ty an Todd for a couple yrs now an about idk yr n a half with darcy n jer im so excited when new videos come out
So excited to see Darcy and Jer. I should’ve known you were friends, they’re some of my absolute favorite creators-as are you two. Good people, all of ya💕 I could hang with you guys for days and never yawn (talking to you, Darcy😄)
OMGoodness; in a world that has gone far too long overboard, having this Family Gathering is always the BEST part of all my weeks. I /We both are So Grateful - thanks from down in the US
I love how you guys never sit on your laurels😉but constantly are open to new ways to try something new not just in your lives (which is pretty awesome in itself) but just try something new in your podcast. Keep following your instincts and your hearts. Keep it up! Love you guys!
I laughed all the way home, please do another podcast with them again, it was just what i needed today.😂😊
I just left a party at an aprtment building in NYC and when I stepped out of the elevator there was a woman screaming at everyone both inside and outside to get out of the lobby. I walked over to her and asked if I could give her a hug and once she leaned in, she burst into tears. She thanked me and said she had lost someone recently. It was thanks to you mentioning that there is always a death or loss in the pain that causes someone to act irrational. So thank you! 🙏🏼 ❤
I am AudHD and usually Podcasts can only hold my attention so long, before I click out and move on to something else that catches my interest. But this one is GOLD. I have never felt so invested and interested in everything you talk about. lol I love both your channel and Darcy and Jer's and watch them whenever I see a new one is uploaded. I'm so glad I found tangents (accidentally, I might ad). It's now on my list of favorites to watch.
This was so cool! I am such a big fan of Darcy and Jer! How wonderful to find out you all are friends. Great conversation.
Earbuds on working with the plants in the greenhouse! Awesome!! Darcy and Jer you got a new fan! ❤
I laughed out loud multiple times. Loved this!
Us too 😂 Thank you!!
I laughed, I cried….. what a great show guys. Always a high point of my week.
I had so much fun watching this one! I found myself laughing out loud! I would love to see and interview with the Van Wives. I will be looking up stuff done by Darcy and Jer.
It was nice to see your friends on the show Tyler and Todd I did enjoyed the show very much
OMG, I can't wait. Grr, it is still so far away. I'm sure it will be epic. I will have to watch it again so many times as I will be laughing too much.
Hahaha there are sooo many laughs in this one!!
Great lake-side chat! I was laid off after 25 years at the company. I want to be a novelist (aka making money from it), but I couldn't handle the pressure of not making money for possibly a very long time. My new job, with more responsibility than before, started two weeks ago. I cried instead of celebrated getting a job...
Oh I feel so sad for you. Hang on, you will get through it and as soon as possible start writing. Write at night, on weekends any time you have a chance and then when you have a body of work behind you, you can quit and start writing full time, but you have to be VERY disciplined and serious about it to make a successful career.
Thank you Tyler, Todd, Darcy, and Jer! The first laughs I have had in a week and a half! My mother passed away on Nov. 26 and my life and brain have been a mess! Thank you so much for helping a grieving Texas woman laugh so much! It is a great feeling! Sending you all the love!! ❤❤❤
YAY ! Guests on the podcast as I suggested after last episode ❤🙏🏻
GUYS: THE BEST EPISODE YET...LOVED IT...Rick in Toronto
Imagine my shock when i started the podcast and saw 2 of my favorite faces that i follow independently from you! What a wonderful, nay glorious holiday treat for this older woman living in the middle of the Michigan pines! Being retired in the USA, i know I'll never see them live so i adore all their social media presents.
Oh! My! Crap! This was so needed, guys! Thank you thank you THANK YOU!
You definitely must do more of this collab!
Love you guys!
D&J, can’t wait to see you in Hotlanta!
Thanks for this time together. Most of our friends have retired and moved away or died. My husband is old and ill and needs constant care and we can barely get out of the house. Our families are scattered all over the US. COVID and separation have almost driven me to.
Depression. It shows like yours that keep me going. This was such a wonderful show tonight with your friends. I felt like I was right there sitting on the other Is chair in the room. I haven't laughed out loud so many times in such a short time In forever. Tears of laughter and joy.❤ ❤❤❤
OMG this was such a hoot! Thanks for the relaxed vibe!
It really was! 😂
What fun to be a fly on the wall and listen in (sorry about the death, or the break-up, or the lawyer/real estate agent affair coming to light) on your stories!!!
Loved the Patreon shoutout (I’m one of the freeloaders - no disposable funds since no income, thus that valuable commodity of TIME to watch you guys) and IF you do decide to cancel yourselves after this “disastrous” podcast… we will be very angry.
Hang in there. You damn well know it does get better. LOL
💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝You guys rock! Best chemistry ever! Best quote: "It's not a parent's job to not necessarily always understand what their child is going through. It's a parent's to show up for what their kid is going through." =Darcy. Thank you for the good time! -Angele 💝
Really enjoyed this conversation! Thanks for introducing me to Darcy and Jer. Love it all 🤗
This was so much fun to watch. Thank you for sharing. You guys were made for this.Tyler you wondered why we show up and watch and what attracts us to you , it's because you guys are real and genuine. You always bring joy to my day when I watch. Tell Darcy i'm not creeping. LOL!! love coming your way. Til next time take care
You were so right to bring up the point that we (the audience), turned to your content during the Pandemic seeking comfort, fun and community. You provided escape from the anxiety and now I'm all in because I feel like I've made friends. Thanks for being here!
You asked why we follow you. For the pure entertainment. T&T I love you guys and what you are creating. I love the podcast and your UA-cam videos. You give me an escape from my life. Sometimes before watching your videos I have been so low, but you bring us all for the ride and I thankyou from the bottom of my heart. Have a great week!❤
That means so much to us Troy, thank you ❤️
I love Darcy and Jer! Darcy is so funny and a plant hoarder! Loved this video!
😂
I absolutely love Darcy and Jer. I so hope I get the chance to thank them in person some day. If it wasn't for the ADHD vids, I may never have found out I had it. And a medication/therapy change has helped me greatly. My gf and I can't wait for their Saint John show next year.
Loved reading this ❤ see ya in March!
I've been so busy this week...I'm just now watching this video on Monday night. I feel like I've been at a love fest the whole time. Thank you for such a fun evening. My cat, Oatmeal, likes to sit in front of my laptop and watch you also. But she gets bored and falls asleep. Hope Charlie is feeling well and I miss seeing Eddy. See you Sunday!
What does Oatmeal think when she sees Squirrel on the videos?
The 4 of you have such great chemistry! It was a pleasure listening to you guys.
So very appreciated! :)
I am so sad I missed this premiere! This is such a wonderful episode! 4 of my favorite people! It was so much fun watching you guys just hang out together. & the cabin looks amazing with all the plants and wood.. I can just imagine how cozy it felt!
The show in Ottawa was completely awesome!! You guys are fucking awesome!! Four of the most amazing people in one place… thank you for this!!! I needed this!
What a fabulous episode. Thank you all.❤
You could call us, your listeners, Tydd-pods; a combination of Tyler and Todd, and podcast. "Listen up Tydd-pods, do we have an episode for you..."
Thanks for introducing me to Darcy & Jer! This was hilarious and now to Darcy's channel.... ;)
One of the best!! You guys make an hour fly!! Thanks for all the laughs 😅 and fantastic tangents.
happy to bring the laughs 😂 thank you!
So entertaining! Loved it!
This was so fun! Great show!
Thank you all for a great time. You guys are all "couples goals" for me but sadly at 56 and single, my time has passed. Thank you all for sharing your lives so that I may live vicariously through you.
I'm 62 but I'm still hopeful that someone will realise how fabulous I am. 😁 Don't give up on luuuurve, Paul, your time hasn't passed 'til you're in the ground.
Its not over and I already need more of this.
I totes would be honored to be called a Tangent. We are a side, yet connected piece of you two. Thanks, as always, for your honest conversation. Much joy and thoughtfulness.
You guys were so fun to watch. I got some great laughs! What a great show!!! Darcy & Jer were hysterical!

Yeah I have to say I agree with the other commenters, it’s wonderful to find some positive stuff to share. I love being part of this community, it lifts my spirits so much and makes my day. You guys are so open and honest with everyone and that’s what makes me feel so much a part of your world. Hello from Australia
That means so much to hear! Thanks for coming along with us, Jennifer! :)
When Darcy said “Hey Siri” 200,000 iPads and phones said I can’t find a Grace😂😂😂😂😂
