Adventure Time has always managed to sneak in horrifying concepts by disguising them as absurd stories. “Jake gets hungry and goes inside himself, which is also a whole world” is a very silly premise for an episode, but it’s used to plant themes of existentialsm and nihilism, therein lies the genius.
It's crazy that this is a kid's show but filled with so much wisdom. It doesn't necessarily tell you what the answer is but you get a feeling about the outcome of the story. Like jake needs to eat at some point, so he can't hold on to his childlike imagination forever but he shouldn't forget it as it can be a true source of joy. When he sheds a tear it's so relatable as the kids who watched adventure time as a kid/teen have probably become adults by now and have experienced that sacrifice in childhood for maturity. You can't have both at the same time and something must be lost but in the end, no matter how much you want to hold on to your childhood, maturity will come with time like jake got hungry eventually, the grown up life will cause earthquakes through your life that you should address first with what you really need to do. This episode reminds me of the famous Carl Jung's story where he overhead his dad talking with a visitor how he was worried about his ability to take care of himself. And in that moment he committed himself to studying because he knew in that moment that, that was his life goal and that's what he needed to do. Just like Jake new he had to eat.
Children have no use for this kind of information unfortunately so this kind of cartoon still comes off as a philosophical indoctrination, albeit accurate, but still a predatory one hiding it in a children's cartoon.
The whole episode feels like a metaphor for the universe experiencing itself through us humans (a part of the universe itself), the way Jake experiences himself through his world.
Huh, I always thought Finn was being Cthulhu here, with the vision of him instantly killing Eric, butI never caught on that Jake going into himself and dreaming a whole world is another Lovecraft reference. Interesting.
No it's Zoidberg. It was a big futurama reference. The Professor from Futurama has a genuine hate for Zoidberg and he's always the butt of the joke. That was the joke.
@@MnJiman Yes. Yes it was. The entire cast in that episode is futurama voice actors. The jokes in it are references to Futurama. The noodles in his mouth were supposed to represent Zoidberg who has tentacles above his mouth. The "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" line is a reference to an episode of Futurama when The Professor loses faith in everyone on earth when they deny evolution. It's all references and jokes about Futurama. That was the entire point.
@@scratchy9874 to be fair zoidberg looks a lot like Cthulhu. And how do you not see how people could mistake it for Cthulhu? A person realizing they are just a dream of a giant alien monster and escapes to see a monster beyond comprehension and their mind melts. Thats the plot of call of Cthulhu. Why can’t it be both? Based on the geniuses who wrote Futurama, jokes can have more than one meaning. It kinda feels like you are trying to make people feel bad for making theories… I hope that was an accident.😅
Also, Goose saying he hasn’t seen Jake in “2 or 3 years” is a reference to Futurama’s hiatus. The episode is also probably inspired by the Futurama episode “Godfellas” in which Bender (voiced by John DiMaggio, same as Jake) becomes the god of a civilization that lives on his belly
Perhaps all of Adventure Time is just a dream Bender had after his head gets dropped in Roswell and spends over a thousand years lying in the desert. Maybe all of Ooo, where in stark contrast to Jakeworld with its food made of person the people are made of food, is also just a subconscious reflection that will inevitably cease.
@@IvytheherbertConsidering Prismo implanted a fanfic universe in the Ice King's brain, this idea wouldn't even be too out of place for Adventure Time. Hell it could even explain how Bender encountered Finn and Jake at one point.
The whole thing is a farce. Magic man just made a spell that causes Jake’s dreams physically manifest through Jake’s dream, with an added catch that Jake is fully aware, and must make the choice to wake up. It’s a messed up joke by manic man and HE GOT US ALL. Except me.
2:25 Slight correction: Azatoth isn't a god who dreams the and as such the universe would disappear when it wakes up he is a god who is constantly being forced to sleep for should he ever wake up he would consume everything that is. Yog-Sothoth is a much better example as Yog-Sothoth IS everything there is
Well, it might also mean that while yog sothoth represents the "true" reality (the pure and primordial state of things), azathoth represents the "false" reality (inspired by the true but distorted and diluted to fit the dreamer's perception). It's kinda like azathoth's supposed preacher (Nyarlathotep) wants to ensure that whatever the end of the dream would lead to, it must be closely related to the latter's interest in humanity. Something that Nya doesn't want.
I've seen that " correction " being passed around the internet for quite a bit, but really there is nothing in the mythos written by lovecraft that contradict azathoth being the one dreaming all of reality and quite a lot that heavily imply it is doing exactly that the fact it's the being at the center of all infinity, the fact that the flute player who decide wich rules all realities apply by use said music to keep it asleep, the fact that nyarlathotep the litteral soul of all Other Gods, wich include yog sothoth by the way, call it " my master ", and the fact that it match completely with the whole point of the mythos wich is cosmic indifference what better way to represent that than making a creator god that didn't even mean for reality to exist in the first place ? there's other example but safe to say that yes azathoth was most probably written as the center piece of the cthulhu mythos in one way or another
@@dovhadark7108Well, it wasn’t supposed to be called the Cthulhu Mythos in the first place. Lovecraft’s intended name for his series was supposed to be the Yog-Sothoth Cycles. Since Yog-Sothoth is basically all of reality, it could have been meant to indicate that Yog-Sothoth is the foundation of the universe Lovecraft wrote.
Adventure time is my perfect example of how you can have great show for kids and adults, rewatching the episodes makes me realize how much I just missed, and keep up with the great quality, you can make it bigtime if you keep consistent
I find it interesting that they people of Jake City would be destroyed either way. If jake stayed in there and did not eat, they would all die. If he leaves and eats, they live on as a part of him. Goose knew this.
another fun fact of this episode it's a love letter to Futurama since most of the characters are voiced by cast members of that show and the series had been finished for roughly as long as Goose said by the time the episode aired and he was voice by Fry's voice Actor Billy West aka Bender's best friend who is one of Jake's VA John DiMaggio's most famous roles.
Good idea, maybe i will do that one soon! I have a couple more adventure time episodes planned but i think Puhoy is pretty interesting so i might go for it
I thought goose mentioning the 5 bucks implied something like this happened before and he was _cheekily_ hinting that he helped him before, foreshadowing to us the viewer that he'll help him out again. Seeing as "everyone" is *physically* a part of Jake, then no "one" is truly gone and we can assume that "Goose" is Jake's subconscious memory.
I believe the entire thing is a reference to the episode/comic where Superman was kept in a dream, and had to wake up to save his friends. in the dream, as he would wake up, earthquakes would destroy krypton. As he woke up, he hugged his son, a tear rolling down his cheek, and said that his life on krypton was all he’d ever wanted.
2:22 Pssst. Yog sothoth is the living setting. Azathoth is the one that they have to keep asleep because he's the equivalent of a toddler smashing blocks together, but with godlike power. The two are often mistaken for this reason. Azathoth even gets woken up in the mythos w no universe collapse.
In hermeticism, a core tenant is as aboveso below. If every consciousness and plant and building in jake are all part of jake and really just one collective organ, it stands to reason that the same can be applied in our dimension of existence. Our individuality is just an illusion.
The natural path is the path of least resistance, which is achieved by following suggestions of nature and not fighting against fate. Thank you for this. I haven't looked at Taoism since I was a teenager and I've been lacking the words to describe this.
I am so glad Magic Man doesn't last.I absolutely despised that character, he ONLY brought needless suffering, and NEVER did anything good, only when cured.
@@visionofsolace8961you know what people in the real world would call magic man, he’s not a cool wizard of mystery, showing that people that nothing matters, he’s simply a bitch, and even when he did change, he had to be forced to with his brother sacrificing himself so magic man could be a little bit decent, even now he still has that damn same attitude he always had, that grey morality of him always showing a vague threat of him being able to change back to evil if he felt like it, he’s a dirt bag, but oh he’s a super gnostic super hero that flips off God oh he’s so cool bla bla bla 😂, like he’s a self insert for occult atheist that know that demons and God are real but still want to be POS
@@visionofsolace8961yeah tricksters at least sometimes do nice things, or do nice things on accident Magic man always just seemed like a straight up asshole to me he just wants to ruin stuff
While it might not necessarily be Magic Man’s intention the fact is that experiencing suffering and discomfort often impels us to question and evaluate our lives and choices, at times discovering strengths, abilities or flaws we were unaware of possessing > this process is how we grow and develop into fully rounded, hopefully empathetic, ppl who become aware of and acknowledge a whole world outside their own little sphere.
YES THANK U FOR THIS. A lot of people love the big dogs like “hall of egress, or the pillow fort one. Me too. They’re all amazing. But I feel this episode goes in onnoticed in comparison. One of my favorite things about this, is how it’s like the pillow episode. Where Finn and Jake enter their own worlds, and accidently cause their worlds to cease. But Finn forgetting, was always so frustrating. I understand why and it works. But Jake, understands the sacrifice of his belly world, and Goose. Which just adds so much extra grief to the whole funny thing. Thank u very much for this
I’m really excited for the future of this channel! I think a cool episode to cover that I think gets too much hate is “Sad Face”. I think it’s a pretty fascinating episode discussing the differences of what artists want to make versus what studios force them to make. It’s a message that’s definitely relevant right now.
Thanks so much! That episode is super interesting too yea, I’ve been rewatching a lot recently and noticed that season 6 is filled with a lot amazing episodes
@@TeeBreak DANG! !!!! i just called my grandma before watching this video and she told me i made her cry tears of joy crazy coincidence and this is very sweet ty for sharing!
one of my new fave channels!! cant wait to see more videos . i’ve watched this twice because i really enjoy the writing!! some pretty impactful episodes for me i’d say is the one where AMO interferes with BMO’s bday; orgalorg, or another similar episode being the tower; astral plane and thanks for the crabapples. :D
also love the inexplicable futurama references as having a lot of the crucial characters of this episode having the exact same deliveries as characters such as fry or farnsworth, makes it ten times more surreal
No way this is your first video? It was so well worded and put together. I never knew why this episode always irked me, but its also kind of beautiful in a way. This was a really good breakdown
Loved your breakdown saved me mental ill and worry i love this episode i was recently getting so annoyed of the maintenence of eating and surviving. This is a beautiful show
IMO, Goose represents Finn's influence on Jake. Even when you're alone, there are people in your life who you just can't get out of your head, and become integrated as one of the voices of our psyche. Often, this is a sign of emotional abuse or Codependency, but Adventure Time actually does a good job of showing this kind of deep interconnectedness in a positive light. Everything you said about Goose is true, but I think it came from Finn specifically- his sense of right and wrong, and that Jake chose to become a better person for him. Jake addresses Finn as Goose at the end because, deep down, he was talking to his personal, inner Finn the whole time. They both see themselves as "Finn and Jake," but can operate in the absence of the other because they recognize each other's respective Best Self and can use that to make themself stronger. And we later find out that Finn is able to keep living without Jake and be a great hero, using his brother's memory to keep him stable and on the right path.
@@TeeBreak This video got in my head a bit and left me pondering, especially in how Jake was the one with the thiefish proclivities, yet was the one to exist on a higher plane in the afterlife... But then I remembered that Finn's past life as Shoko was as a thief. Except, their motivations were entirely different- Jake states he literally didn't know better, almost foreshadowing a kind of High Wis stat that's on a level that's just plain incongruent with basic society. If he's actually near the point where he's seeing the One-ness of everything, then yeah, maybe in this life, maybe he would need to have the basics of personal property explained to him, I suppose. (At least, by adventure time metaphysical logic) Meanwhile, Shoko was motivated by very Earthly factors like some greed, but most largely fear- more specifically negative earthly feelings over positive mortal motivators, like their newfound positive relationships in the Candy Kingdom. I daresay that this experience seems to be a key motivator in the underlying sense of righteousness Finn would go on to be born with- and also be the guiding element that was the grounding, positive earthly nudge Jake needed to be his best self as the Adventure Time equivalent of a Bodhisattva-esque figure. (achieving nirvana, but returning to the mortal coil in some capacity for the betterment of unenlightened souls) I daresay you could make some really fascinating exploration on the meaning of thievery in Adventure Time, as its kinda a huge point in almost every character's story. From the themes of the Ice King "Stealing Princesses" to the Magic Man's hat, (which also ties neatly into a sense of enlightenment) to the above ideas with Finn and Jake.
I guess Google is reading thoughts now because not more than a half hour ago, I was thinking about how “Everything’s Jake” is an underrated Adventure Time episode.
They kinda are, it's why people that think Google needs to listen to microphones are so stupid, it would be extremely expensive, not cost effective at all Algorithms have been good enough to predict your behavior for years - it didn't show you stuff because you talked about something- it just predicted you would talk about that thing based on what you did before Personally I find that way scarier than the conspiracy theory of them using microphones but what do I know Another good example for this is women starting to get coupons and ads for baby products and only later realizing they are pregnant
magic man gave jake a lesson in the complexities of self-diefication and a glimps into jakes subconcious by way of anthropomorphically interpretatng it through worldbuilding its psychodrama such as that that makes a wise dog wiser
This is basically what i needed to hear, i have gotten hungrier daily yearly for more and more validation. WIthout realising that i could just stop doubting myself, choose the right people and live by morals and imagining validating myself. No one needs anything but themselves, and we should create a balance where self-validation becomes a necessity and social validation becomes a nice to have
Fun Fact: this episode is also a reunion for voice actors John DiMaggio (Jake) and Billy West (Goose/Dr. Erik Adamkinson), who played Bender and Fry in Futurama. 3:09 is a reference to Futurama wrapping production 2 to 3 years prior to this episode. Jake
Something I'm only just now realizing after watching that recap, the "Welcome Home Jake" party is eerily similar to the Space Jake episode (I forgot it's name) where Jake is welcomed to his "True home" in space, but it's all really an elaborate lie. OR Maybe I'm remembering wrong and I'm crazy. It's been a while since I watched this show.
loved the video and can tell u put a lotta work into it, keep it up and I'm sure you'll do even better than this master piece ! can't wait to see what else about adventure time or other things you make videos about !
Dang, only video on the channel and it's a really good one. Great job! I sure know what it's like to be in a prison of my own mind. Been there... _Still there._
instantly subscribed, i cant even put it into words, ty for exposing me to a specific facet of taoism and i rlly hope u have more videos that go into it esp with ATLA
This reminds me of Heminus Heminus ancient glor god that never fully understood what it meant to be alive yet created life from his meer thought he had the ability to form shift but never fully understood what it meant to be a man. A woman. Niether. Never loved as she had thought and never cared has he had hoped
Apologies for the audio error at 4:50 the clip was unmuted 😅
Scared me! haha
that was horrifying :D
I thought it was on purpose lmao
You should really put a *seizure warning* in the beginning, it’s a hazard mate.
Theres also a random cut a 4:47. This is still a really good video though. Subbed
Adventure Time has always managed to sneak in horrifying concepts by disguising them as absurd stories. “Jake gets hungry and goes inside himself, which is also a whole world” is a very silly premise for an episode, but it’s used to plant themes of existentialsm and nihilism, therein lies the genius.
Totally agreed, i’m looking forward to seeing what’s hidden in other episodes
It's crazy that this is a kid's show but filled with so much wisdom. It doesn't necessarily tell you what the answer is but you get a feeling about the outcome of the story.

oh my god, only one video and it was legit the best 17 minutes of my life, im glad i subscribed and if more is to come i cannot wait to indulge
@@Waelly17 haha that’s so encouraging i read it to my grandma, thank you! I will definitely be making more :)
@@TeeBreak DANG! !!!! i just called my grandma before watching this video and she told me i made her cry tears of joy
crazy coincidence and this is very sweet ty for sharing!
one of my new fave channels!! cant wait to see more videos . i’ve watched this twice because i really enjoy the writing!!
some pretty impactful episodes for me i’d say is the one where AMO interferes with BMO’s bday; orgalorg, or another similar episode being the tower; astral plane and thanks for the crabapples. :D
Noticed there was only one video on your channel. Look forward to seeing more of these. Good job king
Thank you!
Time to poop for 17 minutes and 14 seconds
Lol
also love the inexplicable futurama references as having a lot of the crucial characters of this episode having the exact same deliveries as characters such as fry or farnsworth, makes it ten times more surreal
The "YOU'RE HIDEOUS, HIDEOUS!!!" gag always stuck with me
I can't say for sure but I suspect Pendleton Ward has had psychedelics.
Cool Video, You could make so many vids about the depth of AT.
"Wow, that was a real funky episode."
"That was actually a Lovecraft reference about cosmic horror."
the editing with the guitar playing and the dissonant little chords for the little baps pows and wams goes so hard. insta sub
YES thank you! All music and sound effects are self made. The volumes kinda low in the mix but next vid it’ll be better. Glad someone noticed 😄
This was really well written bro I really liked the creepy vibes you added to it as well
I really like the musical notes and sounds that subtly accompany the visuals in the video.
I just accessed the channel hoping there would be more videos... this was truly amazing man
The steeper the mountain the harder the climb the better the view from the finishing line
No way this is your first video? It was so well worded and put together. I never knew why this episode always irked me, but its also kind of beautiful in a way. This was a really good breakdown
Thank you!!! It is my first video in this style, more coming soon!
Loved your breakdown saved me mental ill and worry i love this episode i was recently getting so annoyed of the maintenence of eating and surviving. This is a beautiful show
Oh what, this is your first upload. Such a great video man can’t wait to see more.
If one considers Puhoy, then both Finn and Jake have witnessed an ended world.
I love the editing on this especially the sound design
Very well made and thoughtful video. Very well spoken tbh
awesome analysis im so excited for more!!! :)
For a first video on your channel, this was an absolute masterpiece.
Thank you so much!
Wow great video man for a first one with only 100 subs I’m very impressed. Keep going bro you got my sub
Thank you so much for our first ever comment ever, we will definitely be putting out more videos, we appreciate the support :D
I may be witnessing another banger channel on the rise, can't wait to watch more from you, also yippie im among ur first 400 subscribers!!
0:43 "Magicman doesn't work withing good or bad" (currently turning a bird into a horrible abomination.)
IMO, Goose represents Finn's influence on Jake.
Even when you're alone, there are people in your life who you just can't get out of your head, and become integrated as one of the voices of our psyche.
Often, this is a sign of emotional abuse or Codependency, but Adventure Time actually does a good job of showing this kind of deep interconnectedness in a positive light.
Everything you said about Goose is true, but I think it came from Finn specifically- his sense of right and wrong, and that Jake chose to become a better person for him.
Jake addresses Finn as Goose at the end because, deep down, he was talking to his personal, inner Finn the whole time.
They both see themselves as "Finn and Jake," but can operate in the absence of the other because they recognize each other's respective Best Self and can use that to make themself stronger.
And we later find out that Finn is able to keep living without Jake and be a great hero, using his brother's memory to keep him stable and on the right path.
Woah that’s a super interesting interpretation i like it a lot!
@@TeeBreak This video got in my head a bit and left me pondering, especially in how Jake was the one with the thiefish proclivities, yet was the one to exist on a higher plane in the afterlife...
But then I remembered that Finn's past life as Shoko was as a thief.
Except, their motivations were entirely different- Jake states he literally didn't know better, almost foreshadowing a kind of High Wis stat that's on a level that's just plain incongruent with basic society. If he's actually near the point where he's seeing the One-ness of everything, then yeah, maybe in this life, maybe he would need to have the basics of personal property explained to him, I suppose. (At least, by adventure time metaphysical logic)
Meanwhile, Shoko was motivated by very Earthly factors like some greed, but most largely fear- more specifically negative earthly feelings over positive mortal motivators, like their newfound positive relationships in the Candy Kingdom.
I daresay that this experience seems to be a key motivator in the underlying sense of righteousness Finn would go on to be born with- and also be the guiding element that was the grounding, positive earthly nudge Jake needed to be his best self as the Adventure Time equivalent of a Bodhisattva-esque figure. (achieving nirvana, but returning to the mortal coil in some capacity for the betterment of unenlightened souls)
I daresay you could make some really fascinating exploration on the meaning of thievery in Adventure Time, as its kinda a huge point in almost every character's story. From the themes of the Ice King "Stealing Princesses" to the Magic Man's hat, (which also ties neatly into a sense of enlightenment) to the above ideas with Finn and Jake.
loved your analysis, eloquence and editing style! keep it up
@@lucasves01 thank you so much!
Hi I’ve been waiting for someone to make adventure time analysis like this for a long time so pls make more videos, this was great
I guess Google is reading thoughts now because not more than a half hour ago, I was thinking about how “Everything’s Jake” is an underrated Adventure Time episode.
They kinda are, it's why people that think Google needs to listen to microphones are so stupid, it would be extremely expensive, not cost effective at all
Algorithms have been good enough to predict your behavior for years - it didn't show you stuff because you talked about something- it just predicted you would talk about that thing based on what you did before
Personally I find that way scarier than the conspiracy theory of them using microphones but what do I know
Another good example for this is women starting to get coupons and ads for baby products and only later realizing they are pregnant
magic man gave jake a lesson in the complexities of self-diefication and a glimps into jakes subconcious by way of anthropomorphically interpretatng it through worldbuilding
its psychodrama such as that that makes a wise dog wiser
jake and magic man clearly are connected in some profound way, always seeming to redefine his fate
This was so deep. So many thoughts brought forth.
for a first video this is amazing man. keep it up
Thank you so much! I definitely will , it’s comments like these that make me super excited to continue!! Seriously, thank you!!!
This is basically what i needed to hear, i have gotten hungrier daily yearly for more and more validation. WIthout realising that i could just stop doubting myself, choose the right people and live by morals and imagining validating myself. No one needs anything but themselves, and we should create a balance where self-validation becomes a necessity and social validation becomes a nice to have
This show has more profundity in one 10 minute episode than entire seasons of Rick & Morty
I can’t tell if this video is a joke or not but I still love it
Nice first video, keep up the good work! We need more adventure time youtubers
Fun Fact: this episode is also a reunion for voice actors John DiMaggio (Jake) and Billy West (Goose/Dr. Erik Adamkinson), who played Bender and Fry in Futurama. 3:09 is a reference to Futurama wrapping production 2 to 3 years prior to this episode.
Jake
I love everything about this, amazing job guys
Really well edited,man. Great video
Dang bro,only got one video and has 1.47k subs,insane
@@animamea8175thank you so much! I really really appreciate that :)
@@TeeBreak for sure! Always love watching adventure time videos,so please keep going!
Something I'm only just now realizing after watching that recap, the "Welcome Home Jake" party is eerily similar to the Space Jake episode (I forgot it's name) where Jake is welcomed to his "True home" in space, but it's all really an elaborate lie.
OR Maybe I'm remembering wrong and I'm crazy. It's been a while since I watched this show.
9:43 Speaking of food, why are Icarus and Daedalus absolutely caked up?
Very deep, and great analysis & video. Thank you!
adventure time is probably the smartest, most creative show ever made
@@Conus426 true tbh
yo what the hell only 1 video? this was great
can't wait for more , keep it up bro
Thanks so much! Will do :)
Not topical but i did like that Goose was dubbed by the VA of Fry in futurama as Jake is voiced by Bender's VA
wow. its shocking how much i love and relove this show and its lessons.
awesome video and great analysis!! you’re on the right path :) looking forward to more content.
Thank you for the kind words 🙏

This reminds me of Heminus
Heminus ancient glor god that never fully understood what it meant to be alive yet created life from his meer thought he had the ability to form shift but never fully understood what it meant to be a man. A woman. Niether. Never loved as she had thought and never cared has he had hoped
