So, I know that these are lighthearted videos, but they've had a really positive impact on me. I feel more calm when I drive. I'm more generous to other road users and I feel happier... I think you're really into something with this. More videos please and I'll even buy the t-shirt!
100% agree! I used to get a bit stroppy now and then on the roads. Now I just channel the Ogmiotic Zen vibes and end up laughing at situations that would have normally ground my gears. I've started doing impressions for my wife, the amateurish attempts of a young apprentice, but they make her laugh and that's all that matters. Life is better as a trainee Zen motorist ... still looking for that elusive triple wave though.
XXL for me please! Second watched all three after two days. Needed a Zen fix. Seriously there’s nothing else in this league on UA-cam. The prius battle rap is beautifully honed. I’m a big fan mate!
Better that it takes a while between releases than the quality drops. Take your time Ogmio - we will still be here for you when the next one’s ready 👍👍👌
I'm usually quite a chilled driver myself spending 3hrs a day in the car, but this is truly on another level. Unquestionably the best thing on The Internet.
Not even three specialist could sort out my depression, but you sir have had me in stitches for a solid 14 minutes and 36 seconds. THIS needs to be available on the NHS for real.
"And hello desolate lockdown streets where the newspapers roll uphill like mad tumbleweeds looking for some poor sob to read their grim tidings." Poetry right there.
your coment deserves more love, though I believe it resides in a place where it will eventually flow... given time....here have a thumbs up to get it started
@@TheJs12347777 you sounded like Ogmios in your written style....I saw scooter boy weaving in and out of your pauses....and gave a gentle nod in recognition
Another ASMR classic from Ogmios. Maybe its the chance to revisit Hackney where I grew up, or the music, or his voice, but for some reason I find these videos so relaxing!✌️ Request for Upper Clapton Road on the next one!
Dude, this is the best thing I have yet seen on youtube, and I have watched more than I care to admit. I haven't laughed and cried this much in a long good while. Keep the flow going man, you are onto something, and we love it. Peace and love dear friend
This is the antidote to all the road rage and crazy driver videos. I need this in my life! Thank you, zen driving master. I look forward to the next episode of your chill escapades in the Big Smoke.
Mate... mate! This shit is gold! I live for these moments when you think you've seen everything the internets got to offer and out of nowhere its throws you a curve ball like this... Please keep creating you are golden!
I bet this is the episode that got you noticed by the Beeb. There’s so many creative ideas in it that are already starting to turn it into a series. This is some inspired shizzle, and very unique. Intelligent, relatable, and charming. Wise and playful. Love 💗
No idea why this was in my recommended, but glad it was. Thos 14mins went by so fast, I was mesmerized by that softly calm voice, full of wisdom and hope. Great video. Thanks!
loving your style Ogmious - keep up the chill work! Ogmious driving - in a flow state is a gentle delight of kindness - no hate. An enlightened being - converting rage into battle rap scooter-boys and double waves - give the horn a gentle tap.
In a perfect world we’d have an album of short Ogmios mantras to feed into the shuffle of our driving playlists; it could save lives. But what we have already is enough of a gift. Thanks for doing these.
Not only are you one of the most patient and considerate drivers ever, your video format is really unique and something I can watch for hours. Good on you.
I was just chatting to a fellow Ogmios Zen fan yesterday. We said how much we wanted another episode, you must’ve been uploading it as we were talking 😱 Your Zen like powers are truly impressive 😇
Ogmios..... I started watching "Zen Motoring" on BBC 3 and instantly became a disciple. Then I immediately searched in YT... These are just Brilliant! A cross between "Taxi Driver" and asmr! Congratulations!
This just appeared as a recommendation. I'm sure someone has suggested this to you, but you need to get your soothing voice onto a sat-nav! Driving in London could become a little less stressful! Good work fella.
Thanks Ogmios for my first time experiencing your wonderful and alternate view on traffic flow and anger management. A very refreshing take on an average short car journey and all said and sung in an expressively calm manner.
I play your videos in the car whilst driving to keep me calm. The only problem is, your voice is so hypnotic and soothing that I fell asleep and hit a lamppost.
Man, you are totally how a satnav should sound. "Here's your turning on the right. Fifty yards, mate. You don't want it: that's cool. There is another just as good in a quarter of a mile. And all roads go somewhere, amirite?"
Ogmios, we absolutely forgive you that it's been a while. In fact, I think I might speak for everyone when I say it's the quality of your content we enjoy, not the quantity. 😎 PS - absolutely delightful, as always!
Hooray, you're back. I've got a Prius tho! So can we still be friends? Hope so. 😀. Lovin ' the progression of style, Pothole 3000, and the Prius bars. It's great to hear your musical flow as well. Can I suggest a Zen Motoring collaboration with my mate Dekay. I could just hear her joining in with you. Or doing a verse. You are both so quintessentially London & thought provoking. More power to you Og. I was laughing out loud again & that's priceless. Thanks!
This is one of the rare times that I feel the urge to comment on YT video but I really felt this one. The best thing I have seen on the internet in an age. The world needs this right now. Please keep them coming. Big ups from Berlin.
Seriously, we need the gentle beep... Why isn't there a light function that cuts the lights instead of flashing people and blinding them, like a reverse of the full beam flash to say "thank you". They know you care because you didn't blind them as you went through that width restriction with your lights pointing straight at them flashing full beam... Yeah I know you could just turn them off on off on to create the effect but if the lights are on the indicator stalk you indicate by accident or turn the all them way off, then people just think you're mad... But if it was a standardised function then people would know who the caring drivers are by whether you blind them with the full beam flash or make an effort with a cut out flash to thank them for the effort they made by giving way to you when really they had no need to.
Always lived in these areas since I've been in london, and so know these roads well. Lovely to see them from a calming perspective rather than the usual chaos.
That line, "Papa John's is the fourth emergency service of the apocalypse" was brilliant.
These Zen motoring videos are the best thing of 2020.
🤣🤣🤣
Made me laugh out loud!
I don’t often LOL but that definitely made me do so.
Genius !

@@Ogmioszen will buy tshirt too
Mate, your content is too pure for the internet.
Much needed!
To be able to create beauty from the mundane is a rare gift.
Better that it takes a while between releases than the quality drops. Take your time Ogmio - we will still be here for you when the next one’s ready 👍👍👌
Amen
Slow and steady wins the race.
Yes
I dont mind waiting for genius content.
Ohhhhhmmmm. Wouldn’t be zen if it was rushed.
Every time I'm on the road I act as though Ogmios is watching.
"Modern hybrid tech in your Prius bonnet, but your driving skills are Prius-toric". Absolute FIRE.
I'm usually quite a chilled driver myself spending 3hrs a day in the car, but this is truly on another level. Unquestionably the best thing on The Internet.
Not even three specialist could sort out my depression, but you sir have had me in stitches for a solid 14 minutes and 36 seconds. THIS needs to be available on the NHS for real.
Get yourself out in these morning into your local cow field and get some mushrooms. Natures therapy, 👍
Is it mushroom season already?
Stay strong fella 💪
Stunningly original. Far too good to be hidden in this corner of the internets 👏 This is art. Beautiful 🚙👁♥️
"And hello desolate lockdown streets where the newspapers roll uphill like mad tumbleweeds looking for some poor sob to read their grim tidings." Poetry right there.
poor sap
Agreed, that line was sublime. Btw OG, your vocab shows your intellect and you use it so beautifully intelligently. 😍
Surely that Roman soldier was just perplexed by that corner

you are an intelligent person of class and I appreciate that comment
DAMN STRAIGHT
Great observation!
"That was a White collar crime - 'cos he got away with it."
Ogmios leaves me much to think about, again.
Peace, always.
A smooth line
Seriously, this should be compulsory viewing for all drivers - if everyone took this approach, the streets would be a much safer place!
We’re still friends Ogmios, it’s good to see you
Another ASMR classic from Ogmios. Maybe its the chance to revisit Hackney where I grew up, or the music, or his voice, but for some reason I find these videos so relaxing!✌️ Request for Upper Clapton Road on the next one!
If I were rich, I'd pay Ogmios to narrate my day.
You’ve outdone yourself. The Ravensdale road double parking musical was a highlight. Andrew Lloyd Webber could never.
This could be the antidote to my adrenaline addiction to dashcam traffic incident compilations
Me too!
This should be mandatory viewing as part of your driving test
I had to do a Speed Awareness Course the other day. I recommended the zen school to the whole class.
"he gets results, and yes, disciplinary procedures, but he gets results"
Dude, this is the best thing I have yet seen on youtube, and I have watched more than I care to admit. I haven't laughed and cried this much in a long good while. Keep the flow going man, you are onto something, and we love it. Peace and love dear friend

Driving skills on point.
Poetry skills flawless.
Rapping skills vibing.
Game dev skills .... loading.
The rap at the end is definitely my new favourite song. Absolute gold.
This is incredible. I can't believe I haven't seen it before. You, sir, are clearly a genius. Greetings from Canada.
Hey Ogmios, is there an episode 4 coming soon? We're dying out here, and long for your dulcet tones...
Mate... mate! This shit is gold!
I live for these moments when you think you've seen everything the internets got to offer and out of nowhere its throws you a curve ball like this... Please keep creating you are golden!

What a lovely laid-back guy, it's hypnotic watching you
I feel we need more Ogmios in times like these. Go well, sir.
loving your style Ogmious - keep up the chill work!
Ogmious driving - in a flow state
is a gentle delight of kindness - no hate.
An enlightened being - converting rage into battle rap
scooter-boys and double waves - give the horn a gentle tap.
I don't feel like parallel universe Ogmios is getting the acknowledgement he deserves.
😂😂😂

My pleasure Alex! An album of mantras is not a bad idea! 👊
That's a winner of an idea.
This is incredible. We’ll forgive you for the long absence. Can’t wait for more content.
A soothing voice during my mid morning dump
We Still Friends..
and
You have officially WON UA-cam!
Big up!
I came across this video by accident and now I'm a big fan. It's art for modern times - pure and simple.
Not only are you one of the most patient and considerate drivers ever, your video format is really unique and something I can watch for hours. Good on you.
Thank you for bringing joy and gentleness.
And for 14 minutes and 36 seconds, all was well in the world. Thanks OG-monster.
Come on BBC, give this guy his own show...!! Utterly original & blissfully funny to listen to.
So glad you're back
Ogmios - my driving has become calmer and more enjoyable because of this series. I hope it can continue soon. Love this so much
Yes. ! This has made my day.
The DVLA needs to show these to learner drivers.
May we have the joy of watching many more. X
I will buy a 'God On A Quad' T-Shirt.
This is something I think I've always needed and never knew until now.
You Sir. Thank you.
I was just chatting to a fellow Ogmios Zen fan yesterday. We said how much we wanted another episode, you must’ve been uploading it as we were talking 😱 Your Zen like powers are truly impressive 😇
These Zen motoring videos are genius! My family and I have been laughing out loud as we watched all three this morning. Thank you, and keep it up!
My pleasure Mark! Big up to you and your family!
Pot hole man idea was 👌🏼. Love the content and the humour is bang on. Also your track " Stay Calm " at the end was nice.
Cheers Sean!
@@Ogmioszen no probs 👊🏼
This is one of the most brilliant mindfulness practices i have seen, truly you are driving in between the raindrops.
Amazing! Keep them coming Og. I’m loving the editing and extra bits. Track is brilliant too.
Cheers Rob!
Brilliant. I think I need a school of zen motoring sticker on my car.
More please. We all need some of this in our lives right now. Thank you for what you do.
I feel at peace now after watching this.
Ogmios..... I started watching "Zen Motoring" on BBC 3 and instantly became a disciple. Then I immediately searched in YT... These are just Brilliant! A cross between "Taxi Driver" and asmr! Congratulations!

The zen was pure, I reached enlightenment......😁👍😎
The is very possibly the second best thing on the Internet! 😄
the first? bob mortimer's train guy
@@SamThredder AQUAHOLIC of course! 😄
@@AQUAHOLIC naah. Train guy
Yeah I'm happy I randomly found this today!!
First best being episode 1 and 2
Thanks Ogmios for my first time experiencing your wonderful and alternate view on traffic flow and anger management.
A very refreshing take on an average short car journey and all said and sung in an expressively calm manner.
This is straight up genius. Reminds me of Chris Morris' Jam.
I cant stop watching your three episodes. So calming. I want to go about my day like you
Dope my bro! As someone who works with potholes i will have to share this with my colleagues. Looking forward to Pothole Man 3000 release
I play your videos in the car whilst driving to keep me calm. The only problem is, your voice is so hypnotic and soothing that I fell asleep and hit a lamppost.
This man is destined for big things. Red carpets await.
Comedy gold!
On point!
Genuine, original and good natured. That’s what UA-cam is anout
Make sure you watch till the end for the extra bit! 😀
It's gold
Please don't stop making content like this. It's got me through today. Thank you x
Highlights:
1) Synchronised doors
2) Deliveroo triple waver
3) Cyclist hater rage
4) Priustoric period
Also beautiful scenes at 4:06.
9.56, 'OW' painted on the road
I think these three episodes are the most pleasant thing my eyes and ears have experience this year. Thank you sir
“No problem, my turquoise friend”
More classic one-liners in this video than a decade of Hollywood and professional comedians.
Blinding.
Love listening to you man, oh and seeing some streets from my youth. Markfield park certainly takes me back.
this is quite possibly the best channel that Reddit has ever suggested to me. Not just delightful commentary, but musical scores to boot!
Man, you are totally how a satnav should sound. "Here's your turning on the right. Fifty yards, mate. You don't want it: that's cool. There is another just as good in a quarter of a mile. And all roads go somewhere, amirite?"
Ogmios! Bring on ep4. Really like your style, it helps so much . I ve been double waving all day.
We need "Stay Calm" as a Spotify release man
Totally beautiful I might download your audio and go to sleep with you wonderful creation.
"... and Papa John's is the fourth emergency service of the apocalypse."
This is gold, thank you.
“He’s awaiting his next instruction” love the black mirror reference 😍
LOVE this! Hope we can download the pothole man game soon!
There has been interest from Atari and Amiga...
Ogmios I’ll dig out my Commodore 64
Still got the VIC 20 !
Diversity gives British people so many new exciting experiences..............love the kookiness of this video....
Hope to see more of God on a Quad. Man's a legend.
Me too! 🙏
We are eagerly awaiting further Zen motoring views, cheers
Ogmios, we absolutely forgive you that it's been a while. In fact, I think I might speak for everyone when I say it's the quality of your content we enjoy, not the quantity. 😎 PS - absolutely delightful, as always!
2 years ago, I've only just now caught on. 20 something, go ahead you can speak on our behalf!!!
Thanks Ogmios. Your channel is what cars were invented for.
The Gentle Beep option should sound like,
"phooooooop" (no exclamation mark)
The sound of Steven Fry clearing his throat
Need Stay Calm as my ring-tone. Loved it Ogmios, your streets need you back fella.
Hooray, you're back. I've got a Prius tho! So can we still be friends? Hope so. 😀. Lovin ' the progression of style, Pothole 3000, and the Prius bars. It's great to hear your musical flow as well.

Please make more of these theyre so good. Such a perfect vibe. Just what we need
Just woke up my wife when I snorted at the "ah, my flow state's got a Prius blockage" line
This is one of the rare times that I feel the urge to comment on YT video but I really felt this one. The best thing I have seen on the internet in an age. The world needs this right now. Please keep them coming. Big ups from Berlin.

like a blink, but for your lights.
Thanks for tagging bandcamp, always nice to have a rummage around good tunes.
Might name my first cat "Gentle Beep."
😂😂😂
Always lived in these areas since I've been in london, and so know these roads well. Lovely to see them from a calming perspective rather than the usual chaos.
I always double beep, sounds a little nicer than one
I'll try that!
Like a little toot toot, 'scuse me 👋
Toot toot and a 👍does it for me
Wise. Before acting, ask yourself "What would Noddy do?".
In New Zealand a double beep means thanks
waited sooooooooooooo long ! Didn't realise till now . The world needs to clone you! And I need you as my instructor ! LOVE LOVE !!!!
I don’t know who you are or why you’re in my recommended videos, but you belong here.
At first I was very angry that I didn't think of this but then your video zenned me out.
I love you, dad.
Google actually recommended "god on a quad t-shirt" after typing "god on a quad"
