I've waited 2 months for someone to notice, and no one's said anything yet, so I'll go ahead and share one of my favorite little details in this video: If you look closely, you'll notice I'm wearing a watch in the first half of the video, but it has ***mysteriously disappeared*** by the end.👀
As somebody with a neurosci degree, I can endorse that people who are big ole nerds about neuroscience ABSOLUTELY would casually open each other's skulls up to poke around if doing so wasn't...y'know...potentially lethal. this is simultaneously a v funny roleplay and what every senior year neuroscience study group wished it could be
earlier today i was telling a new therapist how fucked up i am, and how i wish i could change my brain. here you are saying every part of it is important. now i'm trying not to cry during a friendly brain surgery asmr video. how are you like this?? you managed to make something genuinely funny, comforting, and affirming. only you, jb.
I literally laughed out loud at the "Just kidding...unless." Perfect delivery. This is why I love your videos. Equal parts sincerity and humor in your roleplays. 💜💜
I’m pretty sure my husband is in the other room thinking “what the heck is she watching in there” as I’m randomly dying in the best kind of laughter. You are ridiculously dripping with deep interesting (sometimes beautifully bizarre) creativity.
"... Would that be something you're into?" JB proposing friendly brain surgery in the same tone that friends use to attempt to ask each other out. You're my FWB - friend with brain (surgery).
We've had so much content lately because of this new booth and I'm loving it. I really like the intimate vibes of this one and as someone who likes researching random science things, its very relatable lol. I imagine its a very common mix up of titles, they're so similar. Thank you for the video!
Thank you so much! I've been really happy that I've been able to make more content as I've been getting used to the new space. I'm so grateful for this booth!
i love your just weird enough roleplays. they keep me laughing every time I watch them. You are so talented and I'm glad I've been subbed all these years to watch you grow!
The intro had me dead, i was so confused about how this will turn into a brain surgery and then you pulled your book up 😂😂 bless your creativity JB 💚 your ASMR RPs are all so amazing✨
At 23:40 I would have loved if after you said "language comprehension" you garbled the words into a jumble of random words 😂 but as a brain/psychology nerd I LOVED this
“You are so much more than just a frontal lobe to me…” 🤣🤣🤣 …Well THANK GOODNESS you addressed that, JB. I was beginning to feel lobe-jectified. (Hahahaha SORRY, I’ll see myself out.) P.S. You are the undisputed greatest❤️
"Is it alright if I get in behind" me: YES YES YES ITS ALRIGHT Honestly, I'd love more behind perspective ASMR where it hits right inbetween the ears/back of the neck. It's usually hard finding ASMR videos that do this nicely depending on audio quality and position of the mic but this was perfect.
i'm losing it at the absolutely perfect delivery and comedic timing of the "unless...? 👀" you're my favorite asmrtist and i love your sense of humor! :D
idk about anyone else but I'd LOVE a sequel or follow-up to this video with another meeting of the book club, this had a really great cozy friendly atmosphere that feels super unique
This is the best halloween gift ever. Who knew a casual amateur brain surgery could be so relaxing? Just as an aside, I still use the anxiety interruption video you made ages ago all the time. Nothing else works nearly as well ❤️
By far the most underrated ASMR channel ever. I got free tingles and free facts about the brain that I've never heard of??? Now this. This is what I'm here for.
Your level of creativity never ceases to amaze me! You have the most unique, yet the most believable roleplays, and also the most soothing voice! I don't understand how you can pull it off every single video! So glad you are back to uploading regularly 😀
I can’t identify exactly what it is about this video, but it’s just one of my all time favorite asmr videos. There’s just something about it that just gets me every time
Holy crap. This was ASMR gold. Hilarious too. It felt totally inappropriate to laugh so much at such a topic, but when you revealed you had a cup of tea with you - the tension was wonderful. I guess this characters name is Hannah? Loved it JB congratulations. A true creative and best book club member ever.
You are too good at this…this is already the best video I’ve seen in a while…this is probably my last post before I am feeling nothing but tingles and mindless happiness…
Really love this video. About the fifth time I come back, or is it more? UA-cam seems to known that I like it that much, it keeps sending me back. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
"Darn it Smithers! This isn't Rocket Science, it's Brain Surgery!" - Montgomery Burns - Tree House of Horror 2 1991 I saw that live on my old CRT TV......gosh darn I am old!
I still regularly watch this video, and my head canon for this is that each time I rewatch it, it's a sequel, as in each time I watch it it's a new instance of the book club, and you keep doing the same thing and making me forget what happened and then we go over and over again until you get it right
I appreciate the timestamps but I am also confused and slightly concerned about this escalation of events 🧐 haha looking forward to watching it later tonight!
Ngl, from the title, I was hoping for you to fix my brain. then you went all positivity about my brain being perfect as it is 😭😭 my therapist would love you 💜💜💜
So back in the days of like lobotomies, this neurologist was trying to cure someone's severe seizures. His idea was that by splitting the connections between the two halves of the brain, it would interrupt the flow of electricity enough to cure him. It actually kinda worked surprisingly, but with some extremely strange side effects. For instance, he had effectively gone blind, but considering no damage was done to anything relating to vision, they couldn't understand why. They tried showing him objects, but he couldnt see them. However, when they placed the items before him, he was able to accurately identify what they had shown him based on the feel of their shape. So his brain could no longer utilize the signals from the ocular nerve, but it was still receiving and interpreting them. Obviously its completely immoral to actually do this on purpose, but still cool as hell
Split-brain surgeries are actually done today. Blindness isn't a usual effect iirc, however, it basically causes the right side of your brain to become mute since the left side is where all the language centers are. If you split the visual field in half and show something to right brain, left brain can't vocalize what it was buy your left hand (which is controlled by right brain) can still select the correct object without you ever being conscious of it! I believe Kurgesagt and CGP Grey did a collab that was about consciousness and split brain surgery a few years back? I learned about it in my neuropsych class though.
That meme reference did not prepare me for our head coming off like a bottle cap, oh my god, or you eating a part of us! We're gonna end up looking like swiss cheese
🤣 JB I love you! I'm gonna guess this is the one where you asked yourself, "Was that too weird?" after recording. (It's never too weird for us. That's why we're here.)
This reminds me of the time I accidentally the entire 2001 A Space Odyssey. I was trying to find and watch Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and I mixed the two up. I watched Space Odyssey about halfway through before realizing it wasn't the movie I wanted to watch because I got so deeply enthralled.

@UCtXRBpbvtNLFgu0m6Z3LfeA ha!
Oh. Oh did you leave it in my head? 😮
No wonder I've had you on my mind
Wow, I must not have been.... Watching.... Closely enough 🤣
Does this mean we can get a sequel where you rescue the watch from our heads...?
I’d honestly be so down for “book club friend who always reads the wrong book” being a reoccurring character
seconded!
Thirded
fourthed!
Fifthed!
Sixthed!
That, "Unless...," was absolutely perfect.
What's a little corpus callosotomy between friends?
One false move from JB and I forget my address.
Bookclub to brain surgery is a totally natural friendship progression. I see nothing unusual about this roleplay. 😂
THANK YOU. Exactly.❤️
I'm on my second watch and honestly 30:00 - 32:00 is 2 straight minutes of comedy gold. 🤣Your humor and acting chops continue to amaze me!
Also, Bookclub to Brain Surgery is totally my new band name
Oh? And where do you find YOUR brain surgeons? Pilates?
Wait. Am I NOT supposed to be getting all of my major surgeries done at book club? Crap. I need to make some calls...
As somebody with a neurosci degree, I can endorse that people who are big ole nerds about neuroscience ABSOLUTELY would casually open each other's skulls up to poke around if doing so wasn't...y'know...potentially lethal. this is simultaneously a v funny roleplay and what every senior year neuroscience study group wished it could be
Hello, Jay.
How are you today?
"I read a book on neuroscience this month and I'd love to show you what I learned" is the energy my own book club is missing
earlier today i was telling a new therapist how fucked up i am, and how i wish i could change my brain. here you are saying every part of it is important. now i'm trying not to cry during a friendly brain surgery asmr video. how are you like this?? you managed to make something genuinely funny, comforting, and affirming. only you, jb.

Thank you so much Heather! You're always so kind, and I appreciate you!❤️
"... Would that be something you're into?" JB proposing friendly brain surgery in the same tone that friends use to attempt to ask each other out. You're my FWB - friend with brain (surgery).
You seem like you’d be the absolute best kind of friend to have. Such a pure, kind soul.
One of my top 5 ASMRtists
Thank you!❤️

Yo those titles are almost identical though? Completely understandable mix-up
Right?!
I misread your comment completely and thought you were complimenting JB's chesticles... In the weirdest way. XD good laugh right before bed.
JB you're a comic genius, I never get tired of it
Aw, thank you!
i love your just weird enough roleplays. they keep me laughing every time I watch them. You are so talented and I'm glad I've been subbed all these years to watch you grow!
Thank you so much Savannah!❤️
"we'll wing it, it's cool" is a phrase that most brain surgeons use before a procedure
The intro had me dead, i was so confused about how this will turn into a brain surgery and then you pulled your book up 😂😂 bless your creativity JB 💚 your ASMR RPs are all so amazing✨
At 23:40 I would have loved if after you said "language comprehension" you garbled the words into a jumble of random words 😂 but as a brain/psychology nerd I LOVED this
Hahaha, I wish I'd thought of that!
“You are so much more than just a frontal lobe to me…” 🤣🤣🤣
…Well THANK GOODNESS you addressed that, JB. I was beginning to feel lobe-jectified.
(Hahahaha SORRY, I’ll see myself out.)
P.S. You are the undisputed greatest❤️
Literally just watched this on your Patreon channel and thought it was very subtly perfect for Halloween season.
Thank you! I normally don't do themed holiday videos (I don't know why) but I thought this was appropriate for the season as well.
That "unless" lol. You're amazing thank you for this!
Thank you Greg!
the cat scratching is sooo relaxing, but also great Halloween gift
Haha, I'll pass your compliments along to her.
So many perfect little comedic moments in this, while still being wonderfully soothing.
Love the "try not to move? too much?" This is excellent
This is not the kind of "brain picking" that I imagined when I signed up for book club. 😂
This is probably my favorite thing you've done since the Welcome to the Commune series years back, just incredible.
Loved the Commune series! Watched them alot!
"Is it alright if I get in behind"
me: YES YES YES ITS ALRIGHT
Honestly, I'd love more behind perspective ASMR where it hits right inbetween the ears/back of the neck. It's usually hard finding ASMR videos that do this nicely depending on audio quality and position of the mic but this was perfect.
i'm losing it at the absolutely perfect delivery and comedic timing of the "unless...? 👀" you're my favorite asmrtist and i love your sense of humor! :D
Your channel is my favourite new discovery! Love your sense of humour. Thank you!
Thank you so much!❤️
idk about anyone else but I'd LOVE a sequel or follow-up to this video with another meeting of the book club, this had a really great cozy friendly atmosphere that feels super unique
My fave video of this whole year.
3:46 The Eager Look ,Oh God my stomach is hurting from laughing. Thank You that was needed.
31:00 Stop please your killing Me.. :D
I can’t stop, this is just the way I am.
super excited to see the evening and the morning shout out - i listened to the audiobook earlier this year and it was so good!!
This is the best halloween gift ever. Who knew a casual amateur brain surgery could be so relaxing?
Just as an aside, I still use the anxiety interruption video you made ages ago all the time. Nothing else works nearly as well ❤️
What is the title of the anxiety video? I could use it too! Thanks for mentioning it!!
@@PokemonParadise2010 The title is "Anxiety Interruption Technique: Experimental ASMR with Hypnosis (Medical Role Play)" - I hope it helps you too!
By far the most underrated ASMR channel ever. I got free tingles and free facts about the brain that I've never heard of???
Now this. This is what I'm here for.
I love that she read her neurosurgery book and was so sure that it was a perfect choice for a book club.
This sort of weirdness is such a good trigger for me, just an absolute instant classic right here
Your level of creativity never ceases to amaze me! You have the most unique, yet the most believable roleplays, and also the most soothing voice! I don't understand how you can pull it off every single video! So glad you are back to uploading regularly 😀
I love the roleplay so much in this video, not a week goes by just playing this video ♥️
Your creativity and humour (and ASMR) is unmatched!! Another video added to my ASMR playlist, thank you :)
Thank you so much!
Thank the gods, all the other friends I have only like me for my tympanic membranes.
😂❤️

🤣🤣 4:20 - the kitty scratches at the door were so cute! Reminds me of the older Jim Chi videos lol
You are too good at this…this is already the best video I’ve seen in a while…this is probably my last post before I am feeling nothing but tingles and mindless happiness…
Really love this video. About the fifth time I come back, or is it more? UA-cam seems to known that I like it that much, it keeps sending me back. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
5:55 the delivery of this moment made me laugh out loud

I just found this one. I love your quirky, funny videos. Your voice relaxes me every time and your smile is gorgeous. Keep doing what you do👍❤️
I still regularly watch this video, and my head canon for this is that each time I rewatch it, it's a sequel, as in each time I watch it it's a new instance of the book club, and you keep doing the same thing and making me forget what happened and then we go over and over again until you get it right
You look healthier again. Nice to see your progress!
JB this is honestly one of your best videos as of recent, I've fallen asleep to it every night since you released it 😴
Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun making it.
This right here, this is why you're my favourite asmrtist
You look like my aunty from Norway and she is awesome! Very happy and positive and you affirm that personality.
Omg JB this is great 😂 perfect combo of tingles and humor
your hair looks so pretty here 😭 💕
I appreciate the timestamps but I am also confused and slightly concerned about this escalation of events 🧐 haha looking forward to watching it later tonight!
Awesome! Loved the walking around stuff.
I would argue that the feeling of "ASMR Tingles" could actually be described as "Brain Surge'ery".
Ooooh, that's a good point.
This is really one of my constant favorites
Oh my goodness, I love all of your videos so much, but the absolute deadpan look on your face when you said "Unless...?" had me in stitches
Hahaha, thank you. I was sure I'd keep laughing and need to do multiple takes, but I surprised myself by getting through it in one.
@@JBGreenASMR legend! 👏
This is insane! And it’s already on my favourite videos playlist. ❤️
Ngl, from the title, I was hoping for you to fix my brain. then you went all positivity about my brain being perfect as it is 😭😭 my therapist would love you 💜💜💜
I love how you improvised a callback to the cat scratching! 😻
man you really are my favorite youtuber i always feel like sleeping but also studying... like how do you do it
As soon as I heard the words "Gummi bears?" I just KNEW she was gonna have a "mixup". XD
You are so creative and so talented! Thank you for another amazing video! 💙
Awesome timing, I watched " Young Frankenstein " over the weekend.

@@junniperjess1639 The brain is so freakin weird!
Wow, I was just scrolling through my subscriptions wondering what to watch and I get this notification. Yaaasssss 🤗
Hope you enjoy it!
This is in my top 10 favorite ASMR videos! Maybe in the top 5 since, after watching it 3 times, I haven't seen the whole thing yet 😉
That's a true friend right there 😄
love your energy in this one! thank you for this amazing content
Always thrilled to see one of your videos, thank you.
Hilarious scenario. All your scenarios are fun and clever and, despite sometimes being fantastical, feel genuine.
Oh my lord you had me laughing with the book switch. I'm at work fighting off headaches and you had me laughing. Nice!
I love your role play. Very unique ideas. ❤️
Thank you!
I really loved this 😭 so wholesome
This was an absolute riot-I giggled so hard when you drank from the mug. Such a fun, funny video!
This is like a wholesome version of that movie, Red Dragon.
hahaha
So relieved I washed my hair before the club meeting
I'm starting to think the whole book mix-up thing is a setup. She's the Ted Bundy of Book Reading clubs.
I have been literally binge watching your videos your my absolute fave ASMRtist
Thank you so much!
That meme reference did not prepare me for our head coming off like a bottle cap, oh my god, or you eating a part of us!
We're gonna end up looking like swiss cheese
Yes!!! I am getting an A in brain examination! This is something plausible to hope for and achieve! Yes!!!
I love this so much. I don’t know why, and I’m really questioning some things about myself because I like it.
This is so good! Thank you! You're the best.
Dude if it's good by you I'm gonna _need_ more of that behind you stuff. Because wow.
Thanks for the relaxing brain surgery JB.
💆🏻♂️☺️😴
🤣 JB I love you! I'm gonna guess this is the one where you asked yourself, "Was that too weird?" after recording. (It's never too weird for us. That's why we're here.)
Well I was not expecting brain surgery to start with book club but makes sense
Great content as always JB!
This was to much fun 😅,
Somehow always feel happy when viewing.

I watched Space Odyssey about halfway through before realizing it wasn't the movie I wanted to watch because I got so deeply enthralled.
On top of all the relaxing you made me crack up a few times watching this,lol. U are awesome.
Yes, I absolutely trust you enough to brainwash me sparkling clean. 🥴😂
I love you, you're so warm and so hilarious 💘
I always enjoy your take on things :)
I would totally let JB operate on me! I just melt when I hear her voice 😍
Wooo hooo you uploaded at my bed time again! Thank you!
Night guys 😴
Sweet dreams!
