I'm honestly crying so much right now. I'm Shelby who sent you the gift:) yes I made the Luna gift and worked very hard on it! you both make me so happy every single day! I hope everything works out well
+sherbert time When they said it was from Shelby, you were the first person I thought of! You did such an incredible job on that! I'm sure that you'll see that in Luna's room in the future! =)
Idea for how you can keep the video from being spoiled if it is real or fake. 1 Week after the video or whenever you upload the next video in the series, put in the description with a spoiler alert saying if it was real or fake. That way you can still have people go back and check it out, but also keep the current viewers in the dark guessing for a week. Just an idea :)
I love the idea of real or fake. I would think that the twitter is a good idea for the real or fake reveal. Your story based videos have always been my favorite videos so the idea is exciting for me!
Make sure you're consistent with posting, because I started slacking on my Instagram posts and lost a ton of followers and half the engagement that I used to get. You can't lose that connection with your viewers. And maybe film some adventures outside of the home to make it more interesting! Also Amanda you should post more pregnancy videos! Like hauls, updates, nursery tour, etc👌🏼
I love the idea for the new series! It would be so much fun! One way to solve the answer problem is to give the answer in the upcoming video, though add it in the end. Then you can say something like "I'm going to give the answer to the previous video now, so if you haven't watched that one yet - head over and watch that instead of the ending of this video". It's easier for those viewers who doesn't use other social medias such as Twitter :)
I've been subscribed to your main channel for what must be years, all the way back to the Internet Icon days. I have to say that I don't watch the majority of your videos any more and I want to explain why. I feel like your videos now are so similar to all the other generic youtube channels (for example, challenge videos and reading comments/ Q and A's). Those sorts of videos are great when they are every once in a while but when it's the basis of your channel it just becomes a bit bland (in my opinion of course). The videos that I find the best and the videos that I believe show the best of your abilities are the sketch videos. I understand they take longer to make, especially when you put so much detail into them. But the videos you made on Internet Icon and the old school videos you did with Alex (Joule Thief) were, in my opinion, you're best videos and are way superior to the content you produce now. I'm sorry if anyone feels this is a bit harsh but I thought I should put my opinion out there.
+Jonny Bould Not harsh at all, I totally agree with you, I wish I could make those too. The thing is the UA-cam algorithm would never push it, and if I made them, my channel wouldn't grow, and as someone who lives off their channels income, that's terrifying. However with the new web series coming up, I think I may have found a way to do both, we'll see.
+Jonny Bould 1) What does the rest of your comment that I've been thinking the same thing say? 2) I've been thinking this for a long time and really have been that lazy/not wanting to take precious procrastination time to find UA-camrs that are 101% totally original/new. 3) So I just sat there, thought it was good, then went on with my life. 4) I really wish this would change because I enjoy when others make me laugh and do love the creators I'm subbed to. 5) I will continue to think about these and more things for as long as my pity life goes on and do nothing about it because there's always those promises that are made or thought of but never fully implemented and eh. Even this comment takes me 30 minutes to write and one squashed ant, (that needs to only be focusing on hw all the time not writing 30 min youtube comments), isn't going to bring the world down to abilterated tears of reform movement change... . .
I agree pretty much with what your saying! I've been around awhile and would say that I thought the others where stand out ish in the best way. But I wouldn't go so far as you say that the others are far superior to the ones made now. I still really love the vids( not trying to be all goodie goodie) now. And no matter how mainstream the vids may seem, they will always be Matthias's version of the mainstream thing and that why I like them!
Your writing idea is so awesome! I love writing stories in general and I would love hearing your real/fake stories. I know I'll be interested in that! I love what you've been doing with your channel and I can't wait to see what else you'll bring!
The "Real or Fake" story series sounds like a great idea! I think you should reveal if it's real or fake in the next video of that series, so maybe say something like."so now I'm going to tell you if the last video's story was real or fake so before I tell you watch the last video!" Then say if it was real or fake.
I love small businesses, but some of them are so expensive... That being said, I shop at The Burrow here in my college city for all my nerdy needs. They have great products and sell for other local people. Another great business is Songbird Juice Co. It's a cold press juice bar that was started by a woman next door to her husband's coffee shop. She did her research and has been doing an amazing job! She's also very concerned about the environment. So her juice is sold in environmentally friendly cups until those run out. Then she uses glass mason jars and gives you credit toward your next purchase if you bring them back! The juice is all fresh and produce is bought from local farmers. It never stays in the fridge for longer than a couple days (if it lasts that long)! She blends fruits and veggies for different benefits and they are delicious!
Maybe if you put annotations? Like a screen that says "REAL OR FAKE" and then u click on what you think and then it goes to a video with the right answer? Or have the answer in the description? Idk just some ideas
I love supporting small businesses. I like physically feeling the material so it's local boutiques. I am actually in the process of opening my own boutique. Fingers crossed!!
I've been looking for a storytelling channel lately, and your idea for an approach is EXACTLY what I would like to listen to. Do it! It sounds amazing. On the subject of how to reveal which are true or fake; A link to the reveal would be fine, but I also thought perhaps you could just make bulk reveals every so often. For instance, if the stories were weekly, make a bulk reveal episode at the start of the month! Could be interesting.
To say if the story is real or fake, in the description you could put a link to an image or something that reveals whether it's real or fake. That way if they view the description before hand they don't know what it is unless they click it and you don't spoil it in another video if they watch it out of order (and you don't have to have a Twitter to know the answer). I'd love to watch the series!!!!
Thanks so much for this video, classes have been getting to me and watching you two made me happier. An answer to the question of the day, in live in a really small community in a small county. The only play to eat without driving 30 minutes is a small family owned restaurant. in the town square of the county I live in there are a lot of small family owned business and one is a really cute store that sells crosses and figurines, my sister and I have always bought our mother a cross from there for her birthday each year for her wall of crosses. I've never bought any cross from anywhere else, they are so beautifully made and adorable.
Please post on UA-cam. Not all of us have social media. Amanda, 8:30 is way to early Matt qod: I last plopped yesterday if you mean what it sounds likeAmanda qod: no offen. I'm sorry. I don't really shop much. Most of my shopping is for airsoft and buying from big comps is just easier. Especially big comps that see big comps stuff. If any are in to airsoft, evike.com is all I need
Matt I hope you still read all your comments but I just wanna say as a fan of you since day 1 (well, internet icon days), I'm so very proud of everything you've accomplished. You're extremely diligent of your work and very thoughtful person. You care about the things that you do and the effects that they would have on people. Congrats on becoming a dad soon, and I
What you should do about the "Real or Fake" series is to put the answer (I.e. Real or Fake) in the description of the next video so that people can watch the video and then go to the video with the answer and look in the description.
Hey Matthias and Amanda! I really love to watch your videos. Especially this channel. I personally love to watch vlogs and in the video, do you mean making this channel the story channel? Cause I really love just watching you and Amanda just share your daily experiences. I don't mind if this becomes the story channel, but I do like watching the vlogs a lot. THANKYOU for making my days brighter
Good for you! You should really try to start this soon. I love to write and draw all the time. I share my stories with my friends all the time. You should start this series. It sounds like something I'd really want to watch.
I dunno if it's me but Amanda seems so happy and she's glowing! I love you guys and you make me think positive and seek something to be happy for every day. 😊💕
hey matt and amanda you two are my favorite youtubers u guys make me laugh hard everytime i watch your videos. I found y'alls channel through markiplier in early march of 2015 and since then i have been hooked on these videos. This channel helped me through a particularly sad event as about 4 or 5months after finding this channel i had to put my beloved dachshunds to sleep and your videos brightened my days and helped me through this event and for that i would like to thank you both. So thank you matt and amanda i am eternally grateful.
For the real or fake series, you should tell whether it was a true story or not in the next video, but warn people beforehand. Like say "if you haven't seen the last video, go check it out, link in the description." Afterwards wait for a second or two and then reveal whether the story was real or fake. Just an idea.
At the end of the Real or Fake videos you could ask if we think it's real or fake and have two annotations, one with "REAL" and one with "FAKE" that both link to private videos, or something similar, that tells the viewer if they were right or wrong? I hope this made sense!
Sarah Winter I didn't think about that! He could link the videos in the description but I'm not sure if that would work for non-laptop users! I /think/ people who watch on mobiles/tablets are able to see the little "i" thing on the top right hand corner of the screen? (correct me if I'm wrong) And they can be used to make polls!
When you made the plop joke I laughed so hard because it brought be back to when you were so tired and kept bringing it up on your Hawaii trip! That was probably my favorite vlog!
The idea with stories is awesome! I would love to watch it! In order not to ruin the story you can actually show a quick picture like you do in your other videos. Or just write true or lie somewhere in the corner just for half a second and tell when it comes up. So it won't really be visible unless you pause and see what it was
You should make music videos again Matthias! I miss your original songs so much that I have been re watching your old ones over and over! Love you guys!
Yo, I absolutely love the story idea!! You could even have just a straw poll for every episode so it be easier to keep track of what people think. Also I personally think announcing the truth in the video would be awesome. Love you guys!
I think that telling your stories would be awesome! Write, Write, Write, and Share, Share, Share! That is how you become better! Also we all miss your beard but are happy to see it come back soon!
Matthias, I'd watch videos of you telling stories even if I knew from the start that they're fictional. Knowing the story could possibly be true just adds another layer of excitement! As for how to reveal whether a story is real or fake, maybe you could include an info card at the end of each video that will link to something that gives the result. That way people can find out whenever they want, and it's not spoiled if someone watches the videos out of order.
I've been following all of yours and Amanda's channels for a while now but I have never commented before! I had a thought about the 'real or fake' series you want to start. Maybe upload 3-5 episodes and not say if they are real or fake until a "reveal" episode posted after them. It's just a thought! Then I feel like there's less of a chance of spoiling it for the people who can't/don't watch your videos in order.Also, you guys are awesome! I follow all of the channels between you, Amanda, J-Fred and The Crazie Crew. Watching your guys' videos is one of the best parts of my day, especially when you talk about little Luna! Thanks for being great guys :)
The Japanese Cherry Blossom scent from Bath & Body Works is my favorite smell of all time! When Matt said that it brought him back, it made me think back years ago to when I first bought it in high school! It made me smile! =) Amanda, I shop on Etsy myself! I think that it is a great way to support smaller businesses that have really creative content! =)
yo that is a super interesting sounding series!!!!!! It's so refreshing to be subscribed to someone who puts out so much of their own content❤ Do yo thang, Matt!!!!
I totally support the idea of the Real or Fake series! Perhaps you could put the answer in a future episode's description. That way if someone hasn't seen the prior episode, it won't be spoiled right away but still able to be seen for the viewers who are interested in finding out the answer. It also lets viewers watch more of your videos in the same process!
I also plan on doing this. But I plan on making animations based on funny stories that I have experienced. you could possibly do that? a few short animations. And you could do a lot more visual gags and comedy with animation. but besides that, can't wait to see more content!
Mattias, I think u should write the stories the way u want to because u have a very creative mind from my perspective! And Amanda I'm glad ur doing ur videos on ur channel again! U give good advice to me!
The story idea sounds really cool. I think you could put a link in the description or maybe a clickable in the video itself to a page that says if it is true or fake. So it isn't spoiled for the people who don't watch the series in order.
Every year we go to Michigan, and my mom and I always buy stuff at three different shops, in the small area. One of them is a "dog" shop, they sell dog stuff. The others are a gift shop the last is a boutique
My answer to the question of the day. Yes I support small businesses. I tried to start up my own jewellery one a few years ago but I never got off the ground ☹ . However I love going to local markets where a lot of small businesses go to sell their items and I also go on to Etsy and instagram as well. One Christmas I bought everyone gifts from etsy. It was awesome thinking I might do it again tho year. Xxx 💜
Hey Amanda! I love the craft you did and it looks great, but maybe adding more to it by tying like a rope-like sting around and across the center like a dream catcher, that what i though when i saw it. With out it it looks great though, so don't take this the wrong way.
ily guys, your videos always make my day! getting a little bit closer to you guys is always awesome. Matt and Amanda is my favorite channel by far. Being able to see Luna and the process you guys get to go through becoming new parents! so excited! ❤️❤️❤️
On Matthias maybe you can push yourself away from the basic youtube algorithm, But never do something that we like that you won't enjoy. I love you guys because you push to take in our opinions and contact us. You are the most down to earth UA-camr I've ever watched. Please keep a smile on your face. Give Luna and Amanda all the love they deserve and enjoy your life. Be happy! Positive Vibes
About the story series..perhaps you could use that thing like =3 uses on their Date debate videos at the end to get the opinion of the visitor. If you are not familiar with it, it basically offers 2 options and you can click on one of it to choose. When clicking on one of the choices you could point them to a video where you give the answer, either fake or not fake. Could even be an unlisted video, simply uploaded for the purpose of giving us the answer. Hope I was able to be clear enough, if not don't hesitate to let me know and I'll try to explain it better.
Do not worreh, I LOVE your content, and have been binge watching it for the past 2-3 days! I'm almost out of stuff to watch on your main channel D: I would say it's all the youtube problems causing the viewing issue, even though I'm not really bugged by it, I just have a habit of checking channels everyday to see if they have a new video, so I don't really worry about being notified or anything. But please don't stop making videos on your main channel, I love them, especially RYC (of course xD) RYC videos are the first videos that, in about a year and a half, had me laughing so much I was crying. My grandma actually come into my room and asked me if I was ok because I laugh very rarely, and it's usually fake. Saying that though, I do love all your videos, and will for as long as you make them. Though of course, saying this little rambled on comment (that I usually make because...well I don't know why) if you end up unhappy, I can't stop you from making videos right? It's kinda like, how they say uh... "If you are unhappy find something else?" or something like that xD Ok I'll stop rambling! Doubt ANYONE got to the end of this comment, but thank you very much if you did because I have a bad habit of rambling...ok, done, stop, bye!
Hey Matt! I think the story/series idea sounds great and that defiantly is something I would watch and enjoy! I think for when you decide to tell people of the story is real or fake, you could leave a link in the description to the answer video. Just my opinion😃 so far I'm loving your videos and can't wait for other ideas!
Hi, I love your idea for the new series! You're good at telling stories. Maybe you can do like a secret video, in which you will tell if the story was fake or real, and put a link to this video at the end of the story telling video. Then a viewer can decide if he/she wants to know the truth. Can you do that? I don't know much about how youtube works, haha :)
Yes I like this "Real of Fake" idea! Maybe you could have the reveal at the *very* end of the next video so people have a chance to pause and click the link to the previous video if they haven't seen it yet. Or have it deeper in the description box so you have to click 'show more' to find it?
NOOOOO!! You killed THE BEARD!! I really loved that beard:( And this new series sounds like a great idea! I really enjoy listening to you, you have a calming and pleasant voice:) Also you have to prepare to tell stories to Luna, so it is going to be a good practice! Kids know when you are faking it! Can't wait to see this new series :) Keep up the good work!
Hi Mat and Amanda! I hope all is well! As Matthias was explaining the concept of his new video series the words "In My Perspective" really stood out to me. Since the stories he would tell could be real or fake, they both come from his point of view so I thought that "In My Perspective" would be a fitting name for such a series if it were to be something made. Thanks guys, I've also sent this on my Twitter if you want to chat more there. :)
The story idea sounds like cool, you should try it out on your channel! Reminds me of this game I used to play with friends called two truths and a lie.
I'm honestly crying so much right now. I'm Shelby who sent you the gift:) yes I made the Luna gift and worked very hard on it! you both make me so happy every single day! I hope everything works out well
+sherbert time When they said it was from Shelby, you were the first person I thought of! You did such an incredible job on that! I'm sure that you'll see that in Luna's room in the future! =)
MATTHIS' FACE WHEN HE PULLED OUT THE LUNA SIGN WAS ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS. HE LOVED IT. OMG SO CUTE. it made me smile.
Matthias grows a beard, everyone flips out.
Matthias shaves his beard, everyone flips out.
WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE WANT!?
+Lauren Frank hahaha
+Matt & Amanda MATT WHAT THE HECK NOOOOOOOO I MISS THAT BEAUTIFUL BEARD.
Half a beard then everyone's happy :D which is dyed PINK
Half shadow beard
-markiplier
lol
Idea for how you can keep the video from being spoiled if it is real or fake. 1 Week after the video or whenever you upload the next video in the series, put in the description with a spoiler alert saying if it was real or fake. That way you can still have people go back and check it out, but also keep the current viewers in the dark guessing for a week. Just an idea :)
I like you with or without the beard, you're still our good ol' Matthias. ^u^
Yeahhhhhhhh
yes totslly
Agreed
but I do prefer him like this with less or no beard. I like my men clean shaven. :DD
Yesh :3
I love the idea of real or fake. I would think that the twitter is a good idea for the real or fake reveal. Your story based videos have always been my favorite videos so the idea is exciting for me!
YOU SHAVED! NOOOO! Your beared will always be remembered in my heart. R.I.P
😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
I loved the beard! But I think that it's time to get rid of it!
+Ava Warkentin I miss it SO MUCH ;-;
+AMAZINGPERSON29 Thank you, it seems my spelling is affected by this sad news.
+Alejandra Ortiz (Ale) RIP Beard
I didn't realize you shaved until you mentioned it, lol.
Same.😂
same here too😄😄😅😂
Same 😂😂
+Breezie Newcomb Yup, I'm just so used to the 'before' look.
Same here

You both are going to be such amazing and loving parents! It's so sweet to watch how excited you both get about Luna 💜😊 best of luck!💝

You know you would probably get more likes if you didn't say "give this a like so that blah blab blah happens" right?
Good for you! You should really try to start this soon. I love to write and draw all the time. I share my stories with my friends all the time. You should start this series. It sounds like something I'd really want to watch.
Baby face matthiassssssss
I'd love to see more sketches in the future! I know you wrote one a little while back and I can't wait to see it produced!!!
I'm so used to Matthias without the beard that I didn't even realised that he shaved it off. XD lmao
I dunno if it's me but Amanda seems so happy and she's glowing! I love you guys and you make me think positive and seek something to be happy for every day. 😊💕
NOOOOO. I LOVED THE BEARD.... BUT, I still love you without it 💜

Yes! I old love to see that series! Real or Fake is a good title as well! Also, you're wearing jeans Amanda!!!thats awesome!
For the real or fake series, you should tell whether it was a true story or not in the next video, but warn people beforehand. Like say "if you haven't seen the last video, go check it out, link in the description." Afterwards wait for a second or two and then reveal whether the story was real or fake. Just an idea.
At the end of the Real or Fake videos you could ask if we think it's real or fake and have two annotations, one with "REAL" and one with "FAKE" that both link to private videos, or something similar, that tells the viewer if they were right or wrong? I hope this made sense!
Sounds great!!!
what about the people that don't watch on a laptop
Sarah Winter I didn't think about that! He could link the videos in the description but I'm not sure if that would work for non-laptop users! I /think/ people who watch on mobiles/tablets are able to see the little "i" thing on the top right hand corner of the screen? (correct me if I'm wrong) And they can be used to make polls!
Oh yah! In that case, I think that would be a great idea
Sarah Winter I hope this can help Matthias!
The storytelling series sounds absolutely AMAZING! I can't wait until it's released!
I had gotten so used to the beard that the baby face looks odd....
Exactly...I never thought that the haters would get to him after he trimmed it
I agree. I like the way he looks either way; however, he does look strange without it now.
When you made the plop joke I laughed so hard because it brought be back to when you were so tired and kept bringing it up on your Hawaii trip! That was probably my favorite vlog!
For the storytelling videos maybe you could call them Matthias or Myth!
The idea with stories is awesome! I would love to watch it!
In order not to ruin the story you can actually show a quick picture like you do in your other videos. Or just write true or lie somewhere in the corner just for half a second and tell when it comes up. So it won't really be visible unless you pause and see what it was
Matthias, not every has Twitter.
*everyone
+Julie Koehler Get one :D
+Mirinda some people aren't allowed to have Twitter
+Julie Koehler Create one, get one free!
You should make music videos again Matthias! I miss your original songs so much that I have been re watching your old ones over and over! Love you guys!
The beard is gone. But it's OK.
And yes I would like to see that series! It seems like a super cool sounding series
Why don't u make whether it is true or false in a private or unlisted video with the link in the story's description
Try to get this to a higher area in the comment some Matthais can see it
Yo, I absolutely love the story idea!! You could even have just a straw poll for every episode so it be easier to keep track of what people think. Also I personally think announcing the truth in the video would be awesome. Love you guys!
Mathias I love the idea of real or fake stories. This is a must do.
I think that telling your stories would be awesome! Write, Write, Write, and Share, Share, Share! That is how you become better! Also we all miss your beard but are happy to see it come back soon!
I swear they are so perfect together!!
Matthias, I'd watch videos of you telling stories even if I knew from the start that they're fictional. Knowing the story could possibly be true just adds another layer of excitement!
As for how to reveal whether a story is real or fake, maybe you could include an info card at the end of each video that will link to something that gives the result. That way people can find out whenever they want, and it's not spoiled if someone watches the videos out of order.
I've been following all of yours and Amanda's channels for a while now but I have never commented before! I had a thought about the 'real or fake' series you want to start. Maybe upload 3-5 episodes and not say if they are real or fake until a "reveal" episode posted after them. It's just a thought! Then I feel like there's less of a chance of spoiling it for the people who can't/don't watch your videos in order.Also, you guys are awesome! I follow all of the channels between you, Amanda, J-Fred and The Crazie Crew. Watching your guys' videos is one of the best parts of my day, especially when you talk about little Luna! Thanks for being great guys :)
YOU LOOK GOOD WITH OR WITH OUT A BEARD, YOU LOOK AMAZING WITH BOTH!!!!!!
Love you and Amanda!!!
The story idea is so good I would love to see that!!!
I would love that series! It's a great idea!
The Japanese Cherry Blossom scent from Bath & Body Works is my favorite smell of all time! When Matt said that it brought him back, it made me think back years ago to when I first bought it in high school! It made me smile! =)
Amanda, I shop on Etsy myself! I think that it is a great way to support smaller businesses that have really creative content! =)
yo that is a super interesting sounding series!!!!!! It's so refreshing to be subscribed to someone who puts out so much of their own content❤ Do yo thang, Matt!!!!
Super stoked for the new series!!!
thank Matt and Amanda you guys make me smile every time I see your videos thanks you to
you two I ment lol
dude I absolutely love that idea with the whole story telling series it reminds me of a show called beyond belief I watch
I totally support the idea of the Real or Fake series! Perhaps you could put the answer in a future episode's description. That way if someone hasn't seen the prior episode, it won't be spoiled right away but still able to be seen for the viewers who are interested in finding out the answer. It also lets viewers watch more of your videos in the same process!
Woah that series sounds like it has a lot of potential!really looking forward to it👍🏼👍🏼
So happy too see yous vlog again xx
I also plan on doing this. But I plan on making animations based on funny stories that I have experienced. you could possibly do that? a few short animations. And you could do a lot more visual gags and comedy with animation. but besides that, can't wait to see more content!
Mattias, I think u should write the stories the way u want to because u have a very creative mind from my perspective! And Amanda I'm glad ur doing ur videos on ur channel again! U give good advice to me!
The story idea sounds really cool. I think you could put a link in the description or maybe a clickable in the video itself to a page that says if it is true or fake. So it isn't spoiled for the people who don't watch the series in order.
We have quite a few local craft artisans in our area. Shop local!😃👍
Where I used to live in Michigan it was all small business stores. Everything was locally owned. I loved it.
Every year we go to Michigan, and my mom and I always buy stuff at three different shops, in the small area. One of them is a "dog" shop, they sell dog stuff. The others are a gift shop the last is a boutique
My answer to the question of the day. Yes I support small businesses. I tried to start up my own jewellery one a few years ago but I never got off the ground ☹ . However I love going to local markets where a lot of small businesses go to sell their items and I also go on to Etsy and instagram as well. One Christmas I bought everyone gifts from etsy. It was awesome thinking I might do it again tho year. Xxx 💜
that's an amazing idea Matthias!!! i'd love to watch those videos, can't wait!
Hey Amanda! I love the craft you did and it looks great, but maybe adding more to it by tying like a rope-like sting around and across the center like a dream catcher, that what i though when i saw it. With out it it looks great though, so don't take this the wrong way.
YES PLZ DO THE SERIES!!!
how about putting it in a really small text saying if it is true of false!
sUPER EXCITED for this new series as well!
ily guys, your videos always make my day! getting a little bit closer to you guys is always awesome. Matt and Amanda is my favorite channel by far. Being able to see Luna and the process you guys get to go through becoming new parents! so excited! ❤️❤️❤️
On Matthias maybe you can push yourself away from the basic youtube algorithm, But never do something that we like that you won't enjoy. I love you guys because you push to take in our opinions and contact us. You are the most down to earth UA-camr I've ever watched. Please keep a smile on your face. Give Luna and Amanda all the love they deserve and enjoy your life. Be happy! Positive Vibes
The story time with Matt will be cool. Go for it!
A link in the description below to an answer video would be a great option! That way there is nothing ruined!
I usually support local business more then going online because I live in a small city and its important to support your local shops.
Amanda looks so good!! She has that glow!
the new series sounds awesome
My favorite small business is nerdageddon. I don't know exactly how small it is, but it's my favorite by far.
About the story series..perhaps you could use that thing like =3 uses on their Date debate videos at the end to get the opinion of the visitor. If you are not familiar with it, it basically offers 2 options and you can click on one of it to choose. When clicking on one of the choices you could point them to a video where you give the answer, either fake or not fake. Could even be an unlisted video, simply uploaded for the purpose of giving us the answer.
Hope I was able to be clear enough, if not don't hesitate to let me know and I'll try to explain it better.
Yay you're growing your beard out again! I really liked it!
That series sounds so fun!!! What you could do is film a separate video saying if the story is real or fake and link it in the description. :)
Do not worreh, I LOVE your content, and have been binge watching it for the past 2-3 days! I'm almost out of stuff to watch on your main channel D:
I would say it's all the youtube problems causing the viewing issue, even though I'm not really bugged by it, I just have a habit of checking channels everyday to see if they have a new video, so I don't really worry about being notified or anything.
But please don't stop making videos on your main channel, I love them, especially RYC (of course xD) RYC videos are the first videos that, in about a year and a half, had me laughing so much I was crying. My grandma actually come into my room and asked me if I was ok because I laugh very rarely, and it's usually fake. Saying that though, I do love all your videos, and will for as long as you make them.
Though of course, saying this little rambled on comment (that I usually make because...well I don't know why) if you end up unhappy, I can't stop you from making videos right? It's kinda like, how they say uh... "If you are unhappy find something else?" or something like that xD
Ok I'll stop rambling! Doubt ANYONE got to the end of this comment, but thank you very much if you did because I have a bad habit of rambling...ok, done, stop, bye!
That laugh though Amanda! 17:05
I love Clocktower Bakery's macaroons. Lemon is my favorite flavor.
Real or fake sounds like lots of fun! Its great to see you trying to come up with creative ideas to entertain us!
OMG you should totally write a book matthias!!
Hey Matt! I think the story/series idea sounds great and that defiantly is something I would watch and enjoy! I think for when you decide to tell people of the story is real or fake, you could leave a link in the description to the answer video. Just my opinion😃 so far I'm loving your videos and can't wait for other ideas!
Hi, I love your idea for the new series! You're good at telling stories. Maybe you can do like a secret video, in which you will tell if the story was fake or real, and put a link to this video at the end of the story telling video. Then a viewer can decide if he/she wants to know the truth. Can you do that? I don't know much about how youtube works, haha :)
Yes I like this "Real of Fake" idea! Maybe you could have the reveal at the *very* end of the next video so people have a chance to pause and click the link to the previous video if they haven't seen it yet. Or have it deeper in the description box so you have to click 'show more' to find it?
I love the story idea! I think it would make a great series! It amuses me too cause it makes me think you're writing fanfiction on your self. XD
NOOOOO!! You killed THE BEARD!! I really loved that beard:( And this new series sounds like a great idea! I really enjoy listening to you, you have a calming and pleasant voice:) Also you have to prepare to tell stories to Luna, so it is going to be a good practice! Kids know when you are faking it! Can't wait to see this new series :) Keep up the good work!
Hi Mat and Amanda! I hope all is well! As Matthias was explaining the concept of his new video series the words "In My Perspective" really stood out to me. Since the stories he would tell could be real or fake, they both come from his point of view so I thought that "In My Perspective" would be a fitting name for such a series if it were to be something made. Thanks guys, I've also sent this on my Twitter if you want to chat more there. :)
The story idea sounds like cool, you should try it out on your channel! Reminds me of this game I used to play with friends called two truths and a lie.
