Can I ask you all a favour? If you enjoy this episode, could you please hit the like button 👍🏾 it helps us massively. Appreciate you all! 🙏🏽
I love your UA-camr interviews almost as much as the musicians, super inspiring and helpful, thank you. Please interview Mr Beast and Aaron Murphy from MurphsLife they bring so much goodness into the world.
The reason why he wasnt afraid to have a kid was he knew at any point he could take off and live his dreams. Which he did.. Mothers don't do that. She knew that a child (20 years of putting someone before yourself) threatened the end of her dreams...
This is so true! But, man, men have always been the dreamers! It's so hard for women to do it, too but many women do! He's who he is. I love his energy, persistence and patience. I've played safe all my life! I'm 63. I'd love to have his drive!
Go watch his early videos. The driving force was taking care of that child, Owen. I don’t think he would be where he is today, if he had not put that child first. I’m a mother (and grandmother) and they will always come first, I get your point, but it doesn’t apply to this father.
@@Wavewave583It's not just socialisation. It's biology. Many women want this because the survival of the species is dependent on women valuing their children over other things.
Having a 2 year old, I'm curious: How did you work in new york and took care of your baby? Who looked after him? How did you get money for nursery school? How did you prep food for him? How did you handle the sick days of your kid, and having to stay with him? So many questions...
He didn't have to. It's why many politicians advocate against abortion and do what they can to get people stuck in family situations at young ages as capitalism becomes harsher and harsher. It makes people better cogs, makes them have to work harder, and it just grows the cattle in the farm of humanity.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- does he say so in this interview? I had the same questions OP posed and not sure if I miss the info in this podcast or Casey said that in some other interview lol
The woman who raised his child is the real hero. All the days she had to wonder how she’s get through it. How she’d pay for medical bills and food and rent. How to afford childcare and schooling. All the sick days. All the diapers and clothes. The stigma of being a single momma. The sleepless nights. The anxiety. The stress. The heartbreak. She’s a WARRIOR.
100% Casey became part of my life during his daily vlogs. My husband and i lived in a horrible little town in Central VT and opened a small store, working 60-70 hours a week. I remember EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT. as I was counting the change for the next day's cash drawer, all I could think about was going upstairs (where we lived) so I could go lose myself in Casey's vlog. It was a LIFESAVER for my sanity. thank you, Casey. I will never ever forget that.
That was my favourite interview so far, I knew of Casey, but I think I missed the whole UA-camr Vlogging period but he's a fascinating guy who speaks a lot of sense. Nice work!
Casey! DUDE!!!! Teach your daughters to work with their hands! Women do carpentry, lighting, auto repair, etc. They do it wonderfully! TEACH YOUR DAUGHTERS TO WORK WITH THEIR HANDS. I love building things. I built sets for theatre in college. I still use those lessons. I learned lighting. I learned stage managing. I still love doing those things....and yes, they taught me how to problem solve in so many other aspects of life. Don't allow stereotypes to influence you regarding your daughters. They'll love you for it.
Crazy to see that Casey mentions us on this podcast at 1:41:50 - A big thanks to Steven for getting Casey on the pod, he truly is one of the best film makers of our time and just a genuine, caring guy.
I've bits and pieces of Casey's story multiple times from the man himself but never in a podcast format. This conversation touched all the bases you'd want in an interview. Well done 👏
I feel Casey on the patience part. Took 5 years for my company to be successful and for those 5 years I felt like a loser since it didn't seem like anything was going to come from it. It's incredibly important to go all in when the opportunity shows up. Just make sure you make time for balance when it does so you don't burn yourself out.
The glory days of the daily vlog were monumental in so many ways. The hussle he put in was inspiring to many, including myself. And I miss his content all the time - to this day, no youtuber has resounded with me like he has. BUT, he is doing exactly what he should be doing. At 44, I'm definitely feeling the pressure that comes with feeling like I have accomplished so little by my "mid-life". However before I take on other world-changing ideas, I constantly remind myself that I designed my life the way it is right now with intention. I have small kids at home and the time I have with them NOW can't be replaced. I can always build another company, seek fortunes or do whatever I want in my 50's - but once my kids are grown, they're grown. Casey, if you read this - you're at peace because you earned the time to be able to do this with your kids right now. Raise them and change the world again in your 50's.
Beutiful words. It gives me the great perspective of the future. I am 37 now and I don't have kids however I truly want them. And again.. it comes to this unsexy Patience. The core of the Tao philosophy, the true of the Universe. The calm waiting.

29:53 I love the line. "I HAVE 1 DAY LEFT, I CAM PULL THIS SH#T OFF" 😂 fantastic. My Brother who passed from cancer had the same mindset. "As long as my heart is pumping I know I can beat this, I'll be the 1st to beat this cancer". He would cycle, fix his roof, bring the kids to school, went to Disney land and he was dying, but his persistence or patience wouldn't allow him to stop. The last call I had with him, he passed the day after. He told me planned to take part in a triathlon 😂 he got his wife to buy new shoes, new Nike clothes, he had it all planned. Thank you Casey. You're truly brilliant.
The best interview you have done with a person of integrity, who is honest and shares his experience and wisdom in a humble fashion. A true creative and story teller. ❤
Never forget the Luck factor. In the book "Show your work" the author wrote that often, people forget to aknowledge that. Not everybody working hard on the same field would have success. MY friend is. one of the best salmon fishing guide on Ontario lake. One group catch nothing and they were mad about him. Imagine in life you line was not trown in the right place, with the right persons at the right time. It's why being successful must not be a goal but just the by product of your life...when it happen. Their is a Survivorship bias. You know what I would like as a show. Interview with people who tried hard and failed. Those who work hard and never get it... but still have an happy life. Because those who lose and not cross the line first are legions. And we can learn more about living an happy life from those massives amount of people than from the small numbers that have incredible success and see their own life as a recipe. And psychological factors and personalities play a role too. Just some reflexion. But a show about loser being happy could be great. Not a guy having millions and losing them. Someone trying hard all his life and never making it.
Follow me, I promise you I’ve failed At every turn, and yet my life is still magical. I can point to choices that I’ve made as to why my life appears to be working out but the truth is: I seem to be lucky. I’m not rich, I’m not successful and I doubt i will ever be either of those things but I have a lot of luck. Maybe it’s karma, because I’m a sincere caring person… but really im just average at that too. Luck is such an X factor… maybe you’ve given me the idea for my next video! Thanks Coach ❤
Love your comment Piuze! So realistic and wise. People don't talk about this enough. After they became successful they think they had a plan. But many others with similar effort and abilities don't become successful. Sometimes it's being in the right place at the right time
I remeber that he was the first person that I have seen on UA-cam 6-7 years ago that said in a video “ having money helps a lot and money can buy you peace of mind” that stuck with me till this day. What ever this man has today, he deserves all…all the money, all the fame and all the peace of mind. He work really hard for what he has now. Well done Casey!
No he doesn't. He abandoned his kid and the mother to run off and leave her with looking after and paying for the child while he acted like a childfree man chasing his dreams. He is a loser and hearing this interview all I saw was that the real hero is the mother who sacrificed her life to step up and take responsibility of the child they BOTH made. This scumbag smooth talked his way into a girls bed and then left as if it was nothing to do with him
So the whole reason Casey could even move to NY to chase his dreams in the first place is because his partner was taking care of his son. I always think about if the roles were reversed, and if Casey would’ve been willing to do what his partner did to allow her to chase her dream 😢
No, not likely. My husband divorced me after I worked to put him through college so he didn't have to. I thought after he got his degree it would be my turn to get one. Tit for tat, you know? Boy, was I surprised when I received divorce papers instead of an acceptance letter. Male privilege is rampant when they are able to chase after these kinds of things while women get stuck with the children attached to their hips 24/7 while struggling to be treated like a human being with her own hopes, dreams and goals, not just seen as a mother and a mother only. Women are expected to completely lose their identities for a minimum of 5 years while the children are young. That being said, as a woman who loves working with her hands, I am actively teaching my daughter to do the same. She has my hands, it's so cool. I can't wait to see what more she can create with them now that she's older. Still at my side 24/7. Would be real fucking nice to catch a break.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- while its fucked that Casey choose money and fame over his child....your own experience with the person YOU choose to be with doesn't mean there's "male privilege". want me to google who primarily wins custody over their children? who kill themselves more? most homeless people are women right? no privilege. we both have our problems. you do tend to complain about it much more because atleast men are taught to suck it up and take it.
Casey was one of the reasons I got into filmmaking and photography. Thoroughly enjoyed this and it's come out at a time that I've needed a boost of motivation to keep going - just knowing that the choice to not give up when things get hard is valuable.

As a kid who also was always on his own path and left home at 13 and never looked back and doesn't think there isn't anything he can't do... @casey nailed exactly how my brain works.
1:02:30 "most of us see opportunity just flies by us all day everyday we're not ready for" sounds so simple. Recognising opportunity is not something everyone can do. Acting on an opportunity after recognising it is an extraordinary skill to have. Manifesting both at the same time is the foundation of success.
I totally feel how he felt about being a parent. We grew up in more challenging environment which shaped us. But we don’t want our kids to go through that, at all…
and I dont know whether to think it's misogeny or naivety re him being so aghast at the thought of his "2 blue eyed blonde girls" "doing something with their hands by getting inti Engineering" 🤷♀️ He also seems didappointed that his 26yo Son is more intellectual than hands on like himself. In his Tunnel visioned pursuit to succeed he dipped out on learning about Feels and Social Graces
lasted 46 seconds. Imagine being a grown man, and accepting donations / ad revenue from making cringey videos. Casey was 200k in debt, his own problem, complete lack of intelligence. Not only that, couldn't work normally to pay it off, needed to take the easier way, of patience and it will snowball. Instead of patience working a real job and I'll eventually pay it off. Guy is a massive sell out, and makes no difference that hes on youtube or not. Guy took the money, that's all it takes to be a bankrupt shill. He was at the beginning and still is now.
@@ChristopherSmithNYC star of youtube. star of content creation. star of (daily) vlogging. star of a style of filming & editing that has influenced a whole generation of content creators

I watched Casey for years when he first started and he always drew me in with his storytelling and vlogging. He was one of the OG vloggers on you tube. I was happy to see him on this. Casey thanks for being real ❤
Must say its the first Casey interview that i heard him just talk translucently honest and simple, just being there and talk, age brings wisdom and responsability. "Mr. Bartlett" has something around words that brings out the words from the guests core... Great episode! PS: We need Marlon in whatever comes next... their energy matches...
The only videos that I really miss and want to see from Casey as vlog is episodes from his studio in NY, I just hope he will make a few. Just in the studio and the block around it. 🥰
I have to admit... I haven't heard of Casey Neistat until this episode. I never watched many vlogs, so perhaps the algorithms have worked over the years. Casey, I identified with so much of what you said. We don't share a similar path, by any stretch, but throughout this episode of DOAC I recognized in you a true genuineness and sort of raw and unfiltered honesty. Once you started mentioning some places in CT, I knew exactly where you were talking about. I grew up on the CT shoreline... I also worked in the kitchen as my first job, doing food prep. and dishwashing. $7.15 / hr. But that kitchen is where I learned more about Metal music and that's where I fell in love with that genre. I'm now halfway across the country, unemployed, dipped into my retirement fund to float until I can figure out how to be early / on-time. I was diagnosed with ADHD back in 2000, and I'm just now learning how to leverage it to my benefit. I have lots of creativity and lots of hyperfocus; however, I can't call upon these things at will. I don't think I'm meant to join the rat race and commute to work for a M-F, 9-5. I've been toying with a few ideas which would involve creating a YT channel, and possibly doing some live streams. Anyways, the system I and many like me (neurodivergents, that is) have to work in, is not inherently easy to operate in. My mental gas tank of "executive function" is Full *IF* I get a good night's sleep. Just the process of getting ready for work, getting out the door, driving to work, is mentally taxing. I'm lucky if I show up with 20% of a "tank" left for the 8 hour work day. Soooooo much frustration with myself, anxiety, ruminating... only to get let go from a wonderful opportunity this past summer due to my tardiness. Now that I'm sort of in the eye of this storm, I've taken the time to learn about myself, love myself, start changing how I do things. I have quite literally flipped my perception of my self-worth in a matter of a few months. I am really good with my hands and my mind was built for tinkering and creativity... so perhaps... I get to be my own boss. I just need to figure out what that will be. Anyways, there's a order to my thoughts up in the several paragraphs above this line; it's more for me to get thoughts out on some medium while they are fresh and I'm feeling inspired. Thank you Casey, you have a new fan. Thank you Stephen and crew for another banger (Busta Rhymes inspired LOL... and thank you for bringing Busta on, he's always been one of my favorites)
I love your openness and honesty. Life is hard and often times, unfair. But, it’s like that for everyone. Give 100% towards your dreams and goals everyday and before you know it, you’ll find small wins. Stack those smalls wins, which become bigger wins. Give 100% everyday and your dreams will come true.
Thank you for sharing, Go to Casey’s channel and click on a video called ‘Make it Count.’ Then look for the playlist called ‘vlog’ and watch them all. The inspiration will hit
I have CPTSD which caused a lot of havoc in tardiness behaviors for myself in jobs where I had to physically go in to do the work. Reading through your entire comment felt really familiar to me. If you're open to suggestions, a couple of things popped out at me. 1) Wanting to start a YT channel 2) Having ADHD 3) Being really good with your hands - tingering, creativity It seems you already have a niche you could dip into. Would you be willing to start a YT channel where you make things with your hands while including openness about your ADHD? There's an entertainment lawyer channel I've watched where she is very open about her ADHD while she discusses cases and explains how easy it is for her to get sidetracked on different topics so she tries hard to stay on topic. A lot of viewers who also have ADHD really appreciated her candidness. And, I as a viewer, value authenticity most whenever I'm watching a channel. Perhaps you could be that ADHD guy who tinkers with or creates something original in each video. If there's a particular fandom you really like, maybe tinker around with action figures from that IP or something. Or tabletop figures. Or if you build with wood or clay, whatever it is. You mentioned really liking Metal. Doing something with KISS action figures (to start with) might also work. Just throwing ideas out there hoping they might help spark some inspiration. I'll bet there's a way you could combine YT, your ADHD, and tinkering with your hands to find that unique niche others will be drawn to. Best of luck. And know that you are not alone out there, stranger.
I think the story about teaching our kids to work with their hands, even if it's just to understand what it means to build or repair something, that's the most important part of this interview. Great Casey, great point.
Yep he sure has odd inexperienced beliefs about women/girls and setting his daughters up to be lazy and have to rely on handymen/mechanics/builders who will rip them off... Hopefully those girls meet some genuine older male figures they can look up to otherwise they'll be dating creepy old men and losers and he's wasted their education fees.... Textbook.
There goes that good old female accountability! SHE DECIDED TO BE A SINGLE PARENT. WTF is wrong with you? She had to raise his kid? She had to raise HER kid. Because that's what she wanted to do
I’ll be 39 in a week and have watched every episode of the diary of a ceo and never heard of Casey! He’s absolutely awesome🔥. Great episode and will most definitely check out Casey’s work👌🏻.
Stongly recommend you check out the oldest videos too, including the Neistat brothers stuff. You'll be amazed you never heard of it before, so endearing
Kinda wild to think there's people that have never heard of Casey. One of the OG UA-camrs that pioneered vlogging. I watched his content back when he did daily vlogging and it was always a must watch due to his unique film style that no one else did at the time. One of the best video creatives on the platform IMO.
Yeah, because ditching your first born child and then later make another girl pregnant, ditching her for your own dreams in New York, burning 20M USD and not even being able to pay half your rent to your now pregnant wife that you left alone is a GREAT attitude that we all should inspire to... and these are only the things he TOLD us about... His idea of "hard work" obviously mean not giving a crap about anybody other than yourself, as long as he get to do the things be loves.
Casey was absolutely the reason I made my first videos, and I still go back and watch some of his vlogs today. Thank you for doing this interview Steven and team
I usually wait to the weekend to watch an episode of the Diary of the CEO but just couldn’t wait! Casey is amazing, love how he just walks through life to the beat of his own drum. So inspirational! Thx for bringing him on 🙌
As a 65 year old women I can say a mama has to adjust her dreams and goals to be there for their kids. If I had felt compelled to do what what I wanted I would have abandoned my children. Does that mean women understand their highest calling or does that mean they failed at identifying their highest calling? I chose my children without regret.
Well, from an evolutionary perspective, there's a big difference on how both genders feel fulfillment. Men usually feel fulfillment by buiding things while women do it by building relationships, specially with their children in most cases.
this guy is a modern philosopher... all my life... all my youth I was lost... but I started doing things... things that over time I learned to really hate... and from there I found what love... "If you don't know what to do... do what you hate..." that is the result of 30 years of pure and condensed meditation on how life works...
Has to be one of the best interviewing sessions I have sat and listened to in years. Really nice to hear Carey just lay it out there... Nobody cares, do your own thing, do what you need or want to do to get what you want or need, and live with it, good or bad. Nice thing is to make it, and then sit back and just what you what, when you want, if you can actually be bothered.
Casey asks if he should let his blond-haired, blue-eyed daughter work with their hands. My answer is YES!! I was raised by a father who, for some reason, let his only daughter, me, do exactly the same as my brother.( taking out the trash, piling firewood, even chopping firewood...)Ok I had , on top of all the "boys" shores, I had all the girls shores... which my brother did not have to do. So at the age of 12 years old, I was doing construction work like installing sockets, light switches, and staining wood. One summer we changed all the shingles of an A-shaped cottage... Well, I am now 58 years old, I renovated a house myself and sold it for a very nice profit. I now own my second house, and I do most of the renovation myself. I am an artist, a mother, and a wife who feels empowered! I know I can survive no matter what. Having knowledge in different practical skills like doing minor jobs on a car, fixing a broken toilet, or building a raised garden... knowing all these skills is priceless! I taught some to my daughter. One day, when she was changing the sockets in her bedroom for newer ones, I was so thrilled to hear her say: "I feel like I will do fine in life. I have tools for it!" My eyes teared up!
You received a better education than your brother did. I would be willing to bet your brother has had difficulty in life maintaining basic chores like doing the laundry and picking up after himself.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.-your comment is very interesting because it made me think about the difference between them and me. One of them is like you described... but we have different mothers. He was treated as a favorite by our dad, and his mom did everything for him. His life is such a mess. He is absolutely unable to live on his own and at 46 is still living with his mom. He had 3 kids; 2 out of them don't even want to talk to him today. My other brother with the same parents is way more independent, excellent cook, able to take care of himself, but emotionally is unable to live by himself and has always had a woman who works to bring money... and he takes care of the house, meals, car, ... Which is absolutely fine, atypical but fine. So, in my view, the biggest detrimental mistake in education I see is overprotection and favoritism.
Casey is the best. I remember when he announced he was not vlogging anymore I was so crushed and got a little depressed. I was in a horrible spot in my life and his videos is what made my days a little better. I even went and watched all his older videos. Loved all of them. And I was never into watching UA-cam videos back then. I loved how he showed us New York city. The video that I first seen was when he crashed a drone in the river and got it back out. Crazy. But that got me hooked. The man is a legend!!!!!
Casey and his insane ability to storytell the way he does, makes him such a phenominal guest for this format... Thanks, DOAC team; I didnt think the bar could get higher than it already was! ❤🔥

Casey's outlook on life is incredibly inspirational. I've started and quit UA-cam many times for both right and wrong reasons. I've finally begun my podcast and I'm enjoying it more than ever, despite getting next to no views!
I've wanted Casey to be on this show for so long. I've seen / herd many of these stories on other podcasts before but "Diary of a CEO" always does it the best, always the most heartfelt, always the most inspiring.. Love the podcast and always love to see Casey.
I know Casey from the very beginning, his channel was just a little over 50.000 subscribers, so I'm always skeptical when new talks with Casey come out as they are often boring. Well, I'm glad I did for this one because Casey really open his heart and say some great things. That's way long format podcast are great for this kind of stuff: you need time for feelings to come up. Thanks man!
I have been watching Casey's videos for years and he feels like the fun older brother I never had. He inspires me a lot and gave me the confidence to start my own UA-cam channel. I am forever grateful for him bringing that joy into my life and that he somehow encouraged me to chase my dreams.
Wow, this was a great podcast! I've seen a couple of podcasts with Casey before but never as in depth with as good questions as you asked. This was very insightful and I feel like we really got to see more into Casey's mind and life as a result. I would attribute this to the host for asking such great questions and leading the podcast in that direction. Never heard of you or your channel before, but this was fantastic work good sir!
Excellent interview - of: - determination (to reach the anvil moment) - patience (waiting for the anvil moment) - trauma (dealing with fallout from anvil moment) - motivation (to solve the problem and after solving to problem of the anvil moment)
This just resonates with so many of us today. I’m 50 now and I’m going for it finally. If that hunger is still there, never give up on it people! It will tear you apart later
One hour, forty six minutes and twenty two seconds and I was glued to my little screen throughout. It's the longest UA-cam video that i've ever watched and that's due to the incredibly stimulating dialogue that had my brain whirring with delight. What a joy to come across such quick and intelligent conversation for a change. Bravo messieurs from a little town in the South of France. You have a new subscriber.
I just understood why I'm watching your videos. I guess I see how happy you are, in you and yourself within, with your mother and father and In that presence I feel I have that love within. Thank your for shining this light.
So many great gems but 1:38:34 is something that I learned when I was younger and it totally set me free. Casey has an amazing and inspiring story. I love his honesty as well as how he acknowledges the basic privileges most of us have and that he now has.
Casey Neistat was one of the reasons I picked up a camera 8 years ago! 6 years ago I started making a living from it and now earn the most I have in my life. My debut film won 6 awards and I work for one of the largest content creators in my field! I have so much to learn but as long as you are doing something towards your goal everyday, you are heading in the right direction. Patience is super important to practice, step forward to take opportunities and time is your ally!!
In a world of 'fakeness' a beacon of authenticity shines bright and his name is Casey Neistat. There will only ever be one Casey, and thank goodness he is open to sharing his world with each and everyone of else who cares to watch, listen, we are all better off for the opportunity. GOAT CASEY.
First video of yours I've watched. Interviewing skills are excellent. Pointed, knoweledgable, allowing the guest to speak, articulate, magnificanet. The "Why'd you say dark?" is a good example. Four words leads to hundreds from the guest. Gonna check out a bunch of your other stuff.
This is such a great interview. So many gems of knowledge. I think Casey's best asset is his mindset...how he's able to see everything as an opportunity and be stoked to take it on to achieve what he wants
Tom sachs influenced him a lot and his brother Van, I think Tom sachs is a little bit crazy and the artistic genius behind caseys success, and van and casey made that style popular due to casey's charisma.
Loved every single second of this interview. I have been a creator for 9 years and I lived all these changes and evolution. I won't ever stop, I just love it to much. Great job with this!!
I miss your daily blogs Casey. Hope one day you start up again. I get where you're at Casey. I also have reached a goal where I don't have to work at all. I've done different projects that contribute to my monthly income and have branched out into other area's that are a success, while some require the patience you talked about, but it's not like before where if I felt I stopped, a pack of wolves would devour me. You're correct about the pendulum, but during those times I really enjoyed doing what I did. Now the luster has worn off. I could do it again, no problem and probably will, but for now, its nice to do absolutely nothing but enjoy down time, exercise daily running (which you're and inspiration) and in the gym 6 days a week.
The interview missed the most important thing Casey kept saying. Casey does not wish to help people avoid the dark times. He wants people to learn what he’s learning called patience.
100% Casey became part of my life during his daily vlogs. My husband and i lived in a horrible little town in Central VT and opened a small store, working 60-70 hours a week.
"I'm doing this because I CAN" - finally, someone honest enough to say they got their FU money and success and is enjoying life. Good on you Casey. Livin' the dream.
Great video. I so identify with his emotional journey. “Persistence”, “patience” for me was the “zero options” feeling I had about accepting the future people told me I had or copying the choices my friends made. Moving to another state with no job, no money caused me less distress and horror thinking about than staying and accepting those “options”.
Great episode. Took away a lot from this one. Absolutely LOVE Casey’s approach with videos and his daughter. His children will grow up with the same drive he did, I’m sure of it. Great work all around everyone
I really love how Candace and Casey let their daughter be creative on her own terms while also teaching her that validation from strangers isn't everything. Maybe we see a new generation of the Neistat family here on youtube soon.
"the presence of a Plan B reduces motivation of a Plan A".. this is the most true statement I have every heard. I like most people have a dream of what they WANT(ED) to do (Plan A). However, I also have a Plan B which is an extremely high paying job that provides me everything I want in life EXCEPT what I REALLY wanted (Plan A). But the risk of losing everything by giving up my Plan B to go for Plan A is too insurmountable....
Now this was an episode I'd been dying to see! Casey, and last week's Esther Perel one, in fact. What a way to wrap up a fantastic year of great conversations! Keep up the awesome work, Team DOAC. ❤🙏
1. the joy of thinking on the fly....on your feet 2. sense of responsibility .... how you hold yourself to something 3. crazy ass way of viewing the world things i liked .... one lucky dude still preparing
I get it. I had a UA-cam channel for over 12 years. I felt I was making videos just for what I thought others wanted to see. I felt pressured for recording things I was not passionate about, just for the views. In 2019 I deleted that channel and started a new one filming things I am passionate about. Growth has been slow, but at least I don't feel pressured to "just make a video". I am doing what I enjoy. Will it ever support me and pay my bills? Who knows. I am not looking for cars and mansions. Just to be comfortable doing what I love and sharing with others.
Incredible to see Casey in this video - what a pleasant surprise! As a vlogger and content creator, his journey is a massive inspiration for me. I can relate to those some of the stories. Despite my channel currently operating at a loss due to personal investments in tech, I believe in patience as the key to future success. Thanks for this episode!
I am currently in that situation of not having a job or money, not even a stable home. This interview gives me hope and of course it is very inspirational but I know that it’s me who has to do the first step and have the patience to actually follow my goals in life. Thank you for this beautiful video!
Wow Wow I just watched 2 hours of this and I can say it's packed with so many lessons to learn, Thank you Mr Neistat and the host plus everyone on the production team. I will keep pushing with this youtube dream because on day one time it will work out because I love creating video and uploading them and this video has just inspired me to keep going
This may have changed my life. So sincere, to the point, and very very inspiring to follow my passion, work hard and be very patient Thank You Casey for existing. And may your story and legacy keep inspiring generations and enthusiasts forever
There are plenty of people who blossom into "living their dream" later in life. Don't believe the lie that "if you were going to do it, you'd already be doing it". Circumstances, mindsets and opportunities can and do change over time. Greater things are yet to come.
“Luck is where preparation and opportunity meet”- loved that. I just started my journey into UA-cam creation as a new mom. We live on a boat, life is beautiful and also can feel so challenging. But I know this life is so rich and abundant compared so many other places in the world. It’s important to know that. My whole goal is to share value to people who take the time to watch & dive into my life because their time is valuable! I’m working on that day after day as I continue this pursuit. Thanks for creating this, it made a difference to me. ❤
Casey is an absolute UA-cam legend! In this conversation, that really shone through. He gives us lessons and insights into his relentless drive and patience, and why all his failures are so valuable to him. He also tells us what he's up to now and what the future holds...

The reason why he wasnt afraid to have a kid was he knew at any point he could take off and live his dreams. Which he did.. Mothers don't do that. She knew that a child (20 years of putting someone before yourself) threatened the end of her dreams...
good crucial point!
This is so true! But, man, men have always been the dreamers! It's so hard for women to do it, too but many women do! He's who he is. I love his energy, persistence and patience. I've played safe all my life! I'm 63. I'd love to have his drive!
Go watch his early videos. The driving force was taking care of that child, Owen. I don’t think he would be where he is today, if he had not put that child first. I’m a mother (and grandmother) and they will always come first, I get your point, but it doesn’t apply to this father.
@@Wavewave583It's not just socialisation. It's biology. Many women want this because the survival of the species is dependent on women valuing their children over other things.
More like he wasn’t taken care of as a kid and he made it so he didn’t see it as an issue for his kid.
Having a 2 year old, I'm curious: How did you work in new york and took care of your baby? Who looked after him? How did you get money for nursery school? How did you prep food for him? How did you handle the sick days of your kid, and having to stay with him?
So many questions...
He left his kid with the mother and moved to NY by himself. He didn't have to do any of these things, that's why he was able to find success.
He didn't have to. It's why many politicians advocate against abortion and do what they can to get people stuck in family situations at young ages as capitalism becomes harsher and harsher. It makes people better cogs, makes them have to work harder, and it just grows the cattle in the farm of humanity.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- does he say so in this interview? I had the same questions OP posed and not sure if I miss the info in this podcast or Casey said that in some other interview lol
The woman who raised his child is the real hero. All the days she had to wonder how she’s get through it. How she’d pay for medical bills and food and rent. How to afford childcare and schooling. All the sick days. All the diapers and clothes. The stigma of being a single momma. The sleepless nights. The anxiety. The stress. The heartbreak. She’s a WARRIOR.
I hope he paid her well after he got rich because wtf....@@clara4942
Brilliant episode. I also love the documentary style. The images and clips included made the conversation more impactful. Well done to the team 👏👏.
100% Casey became part of my life during his daily vlogs. My husband and i lived in a horrible little town in Central VT and opened a small store, working 60-70 hours a week. I remember EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT. as I was counting the change for the next day's cash drawer, all I could think about was going upstairs (where we lived) so I could go lose myself in Casey's vlog. It was a LIFESAVER for my sanity. thank you, Casey. I will never ever forget that.
Im so sorry that you have the worst taste ever.
Okay but he didn't actually do a vlog every day like he said.
what do you do now ?
I love how Casey totally demoralized the MAGAs --- he destroyed their will to live 🤣❤
I live in southern Chile and could not be happier!
@@marvin2678
That was my favourite interview so far, I knew of Casey, but I think I missed the whole UA-camr Vlogging period but he's a fascinating guy who speaks a lot of sense. Nice work!
He abandoned his kid man!
@@party8053 inspiring young men everywhere to do the same 🤣😭
Casey! DUDE!!!! Teach your daughters to work with their hands! Women do carpentry, lighting, auto repair, etc. They do it wonderfully! TEACH YOUR DAUGHTERS TO WORK WITH THEIR HANDS. I love building things. I built sets for theatre in college. I still use those lessons. I learned lighting. I learned stage managing. I still love doing those things....and yes, they taught me how to problem solve in so many other aspects of life. Don't allow stereotypes to influence you regarding your daughters. They'll love you for it.
Crazy to see that Casey mentions us on this podcast at 1:41:50 - A big thanks to Steven for getting Casey on the pod, he truly is one of the best film makers of our time and just a genuine, caring guy.
Even crazier for me that I was watching a video of you guys just before this one!
I've bits and pieces of Casey's story multiple times from the man himself but never in a podcast format.
This conversation touched all the bases you'd want in an interview. Well done 👏
I feel Casey on the patience part. Took 5 years for my company to be successful and for those 5 years I felt like a loser since it didn't seem like anything was going to come from it. It's incredibly important to go all in when the opportunity shows up. Just make sure you make time for balance when it does so you don't burn yourself out.
And I and so many others are so happy you did Calvin! Thank you forever for all that you're doing!
thank you Jordan!@@jordanmcglotten3499
The glory days of the daily vlog were monumental in so many ways. The hussle he put in was inspiring to many, including myself. And I miss his content all the time - to this day, no youtuber has resounded with me like he has. BUT, he is doing exactly what he should be doing. At 44, I'm definitely feeling the pressure that comes with feeling like I have accomplished so little by my "mid-life". However before I take on other world-changing ideas, I constantly remind myself that I designed my life the way it is right now with intention. I have small kids at home and the time I have with them NOW can't be replaced. I can always build another company, seek fortunes or do whatever I want in my 50's - but once my kids are grown, they're grown. Casey, if you read this - you're at peace because you earned the time to be able to do this with your kids right now. Raise them and change the world again in your 50's.
Beutiful words. It gives me the great perspective of the future. I am 37 now and I don't have kids however I truly want them.
And again.. it comes to this unsexy Patience. The core of the Tao philosophy, the true of the Universe. The calm waiting.

29:53 I love the line. "I HAVE 1 DAY LEFT, I CAM PULL THIS SH#T OFF" 😂 fantastic. My Brother who passed from cancer had the same mindset. "As long as my heart is pumping I know I can beat this, I'll be the 1st to beat this cancer". He would cycle, fix his roof, bring the kids to school, went to Disney land and he was dying, but his persistence or patience wouldn't allow him to stop.
The last call I had with him, he passed the day after. He told me planned to take part in a triathlon 😂 he got his wife to buy new shoes, new Nike clothes, he had it all planned.
Thank you Casey. You're truly brilliant.
The best interview you have done with a person of integrity, who is honest and shares his experience and wisdom in a humble fashion.
A true creative and story teller. ❤
Never forget the Luck factor. In the book "Show your work" the author wrote that often, people forget to aknowledge that. Not everybody working hard on the same field would have success. MY friend is. one of the best salmon fishing guide on Ontario lake. One group catch nothing and they were mad about him. Imagine in life you line was not trown in the right place, with the right persons at the right time. It's why being successful must not be a goal but just the by product of your life...when it happen. Their is a Survivorship bias. You know what I would like as a show. Interview with people who tried hard and failed. Those who work hard and never get it... but still have an happy life. Because those who lose and not cross the line first are legions. And we can learn more about living an happy life from those massives amount of people than from the small numbers that have incredible success and see their own life as a recipe. And psychological factors and personalities play a role too. Just some reflexion. But a show about loser being happy could be great. Not a guy having millions and losing them. Someone trying hard all his life and never making it.
Follow me, I promise you I’ve failed At every turn, and yet my life is still magical. I can point to choices that I’ve made as to why my life appears to be working out but the truth is: I seem to be lucky. I’m not rich, I’m not successful and I doubt i will ever be either of those things but I have a lot of luck. Maybe it’s karma, because I’m a sincere caring person… but really im just average at that too. Luck is such an X factor… maybe you’ve given me the idea for my next video! Thanks Coach ❤
Love your comment Piuze! So realistic and wise. People don't talk about this enough. After they became successful they think they had a plan. But many others with similar effort and abilities don't become successful. Sometimes it's being in the right place at the right time
I remeber that he was the first person that I have seen on UA-cam 6-7 years ago that said in a video “ having money helps a lot and money can buy you peace of mind” that stuck with me till this day. What ever this man has today, he deserves all…all the money, all the fame and all the peace of mind. He work really hard for what he has now. Well done Casey!
No he doesn't. He abandoned his kid and the mother to run off and leave her with looking after and paying for the child while he acted like a childfree man chasing his dreams. He is a loser and hearing this interview all I saw was that the real hero is the mother who sacrificed her life to step up and take responsibility of the child they BOTH made. This scumbag smooth talked his way into a girls bed and then left as if it was nothing to do with him
So the whole reason Casey could even move to NY to chase his dreams in the first place is because his partner was taking care of his son. I always think about if the roles were reversed, and if Casey would’ve been willing to do what his partner did to allow her to chase her dream 😢
Exactly. And he wishes he taught his son to build with his hands…yet it doesn’t occur to him to do the same with his girls. The patriarchy runs deep.
No, not likely. My husband divorced me after I worked to put him through college so he didn't have to. I thought after he got his degree it would be my turn to get one. Tit for tat, you know? Boy, was I surprised when I received divorce papers instead of an acceptance letter. Male privilege is rampant when they are able to chase after these kinds of things while women get stuck with the children attached to their hips 24/7 while struggling to be treated like a human being with her own hopes, dreams and goals, not just seen as a mother and a mother only. Women are expected to completely lose their identities for a minimum of 5 years while the children are young. That being said, as a woman who loves working with her hands, I am actively teaching my daughter to do the same. She has my hands, it's so cool. I can't wait to see what more she can create with them now that she's older. Still at my side 24/7. Would be real fucking nice to catch a break.
Yep exactly. What an overlooked detail :/
Exactly, abandoned his own child.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- while its fucked that Casey choose money and fame over his child....your own experience with the person YOU choose to be with doesn't mean there's "male privilege".
want me to google who primarily wins custody over their children? who kill themselves more? most homeless people are women right?
no privilege. we both have our problems. you do tend to complain about it much more because atleast men are taught to suck it up and take it.
Casey was one of the reasons I got into filmmaking and photography. Thoroughly enjoyed this and it's come out at a time that I've needed a boost of motivation to keep going - just knowing that the choice to not give up when things get hard is valuable.
Hell yeah brother same here

As a kid who also was always on his own path and left home at 13 and never looked back and doesn't think there isn't anything he can't do... @casey nailed exactly how my brain works.
1:02:30 "most of us see opportunity just flies by us all day everyday we're not ready for" sounds so simple. Recognising opportunity is not something everyone can do.
Acting on an opportunity after recognising it is an extraordinary skill to have.
Manifesting both at the same time is the foundation of success.
I totally feel how he felt about being a parent. We grew up in more challenging environment which shaped us. But we don’t want our kids to go through that, at all…
and I dont know whether to think it's misogeny or naivety re him being so aghast at the thought of his "2 blue eyed blonde girls" "doing something with their hands by getting inti Engineering" 🤷♀️ He also seems didappointed that his 26yo Son is more intellectual than hands on like himself. In his Tunnel visioned pursuit to succeed he dipped out on learning about Feels and Social Graces
Dude Casey is so freakin vulnerable, humble and honest. Thank God for someone who is so transparent and encouraging af
I love his brutal honesty. I believe his most effective attribute along with patience is his resourcefulness. He has a lot of wisdom to teach.
I think adaptability played a large role, too.
lasted 46 seconds.
Imagine being a grown man, and accepting donations / ad revenue from making cringey videos.
Casey was 200k in debt, his own problem, complete lack of intelligence.
Not only that, couldn't work normally to pay it off, needed to take the easier way, of patience and it will snowball.
Instead of patience working a real job and I'll eventually pay it off.

I watched Casey for years when he first started and he always drew me in with his storytelling and vlogging. He was one of the OG vloggers on you tube. I was happy to see him on this. Casey thanks for being real ❤
Must say its the first Casey interview that i heard him just talk translucently honest and simple, just being there and talk, age brings wisdom and responsability. "Mr. Bartlett" has something around words that brings out the words from the guests core... Great episode!
PS: We need Marlon in whatever comes next... their energy matches...
Agreed, Steven is quite simply "the best"
The only videos that I really miss and want to see from Casey as vlog is episodes from his studio in NY, I just hope he will make a few. Just in the studio and the block around it. 🥰
I have to admit... I haven't heard of Casey Neistat until this episode. I never watched many vlogs, so perhaps the algorithms have worked over the years.
Casey, I identified with so much of what you said. We don't share a similar path, by any stretch, but throughout this episode of DOAC I recognized in you a true genuineness and sort of raw and unfiltered honesty.
Once you started mentioning some places in CT, I knew exactly where you were talking about. I grew up on the CT shoreline... I also worked in the kitchen as my first job, doing food prep. and dishwashing. $7.15 / hr. But that kitchen is where I learned more about Metal music and that's where I fell in love with that genre.
I'm now halfway across the country, unemployed, dipped into my retirement fund to float until I can figure out how to be early / on-time. I was diagnosed with ADHD back in 2000, and I'm just now learning how to leverage it to my benefit. I have lots of creativity and lots of hyperfocus; however, I can't call upon these things at will. I don't think I'm meant to join the rat race and commute to work for a M-F, 9-5.
I've been toying with a few ideas which would involve creating a YT channel, and possibly doing some live streams. Anyways, the system I and many like me (neurodivergents, that is) have to work in, is not inherently easy to operate in. My mental gas tank of "executive function" is Full *IF* I get a good night's sleep. Just the process of getting ready for work, getting out the door, driving to work, is mentally taxing. I'm lucky if I show up with 20% of a "tank" left for the 8 hour work day.
Soooooo much frustration with myself, anxiety, ruminating... only to get let go from a wonderful opportunity this past summer due to my tardiness. Now that I'm sort of in the eye of this storm, I've taken the time to learn about myself, love myself, start changing how I do things. I have quite literally flipped my perception of my self-worth in a matter of a few months.
I am really good with my hands and my mind was built for tinkering and creativity... so perhaps... I get to be my own boss. I just need to figure out what that will be.
Anyways, there's a order to my thoughts up in the several paragraphs above this line; it's more for me to get thoughts out on some medium while they are fresh and I'm feeling inspired.
Thank you Casey, you have a new fan.
Thank you Stephen and crew for another banger (Busta Rhymes inspired LOL... and thank you for bringing Busta on, he's always been one of my favorites)
I love your openness and honesty. Life is hard and often times, unfair. But, it’s like that for everyone. Give 100% towards your dreams and goals everyday and before you know it, you’ll find small wins. Stack those smalls wins, which become bigger wins. Give 100% everyday and your dreams will come true.
Amazing story!
Thank you for this : )

Thank you for sharing,
Go to Casey’s channel and click on a video called ‘Make it Count.’ Then look for the playlist called ‘vlog’ and watch them all. The inspiration will hit
I have CPTSD which caused a lot of havoc in tardiness behaviors for myself in jobs where I had to physically go in to do the work. Reading through your entire comment felt really familiar to me. If you're open to suggestions, a couple of things popped out at me.
1) Wanting to start a YT channel
2) Having ADHD
3) Being really good with your hands - tingering, creativity
It seems you already have a niche you could dip into. Would you be willing to start a YT channel where you make things with your hands while including openness about your ADHD? There's an entertainment lawyer channel I've watched where she is very open about her ADHD while she discusses cases and explains how easy it is for her to get sidetracked on different topics so she tries hard to stay on topic. A lot of viewers who also have ADHD really appreciated her candidness.
And, I as a viewer, value authenticity most whenever I'm watching a channel.
Perhaps you could be that ADHD guy who tinkers with or creates something original in each video. If there's a particular fandom you really like, maybe tinker around with action figures from that IP or something. Or tabletop figures. Or if you build with wood or clay, whatever it is. You mentioned really liking Metal. Doing something with KISS action figures (to start with) might also work.
Just throwing ideas out there hoping they might help spark some inspiration. I'll bet there's a way you could combine YT, your ADHD, and tinkering with your hands to find that unique niche others will be drawn to.
Best of luck. And know that you are not alone out there, stranger.
I think the story about teaching our kids to work with their hands, even if it's just to understand what it means to build or repair something, that's the most important part of this interview. Great Casey, great point.
What a light he is to the world. This is my favorite one ever. I never followed him but love his story so much.
The one I rather hear interviewed is the mother of his child! She didn’t just get to give up and run off to New York, she had to raise his kid at 16.
thissss💗💗💗💗
would be really interesting
Yep he sure has odd inexperienced beliefs about women/girls and setting his daughters up to be lazy and have to rely on handymen/mechanics/builders who will rip them off... Hopefully those girls meet some genuine older male figures they can look up to otherwise they'll be dating creepy old men and losers and he's wasted their education fees.... Textbook.
There goes that good old female accountability! SHE DECIDED TO BE A SINGLE PARENT. WTF is wrong with you? She had to raise his kid? She had to raise HER kid. Because that's what she wanted to do
I think he said she was 18 but its the same thing.
I’ll be 39 in a week and have watched every episode of the diary of a ceo and never heard of Casey! He’s absolutely awesome🔥. Great episode and will most definitely check out Casey’s work👌🏻.
hope you have some good free time! lol
Stongly recommend you check out the oldest videos too, including the Neistat brothers stuff. You'll be amazed you never heard of it before, so endearing
I’m the other way around. Never knew this channel but been a fan of Casey way before the height of his daily vlogs.😊
Kinda wild to think there's people that have never heard of Casey. One of the OG UA-camrs that pioneered vlogging. I watched his content back when he did daily vlogging and it was always a must watch due to his unique film style that no one else did at the time. One of the best video creatives on the platform IMO.
His childhood is exactly how I know hundreds of kids grew up. Yet I wouldn't call it messed up like he did. Its just normal where I am from.
For him it is ,cos he makes more now.
What a great interview! Absolutely LOVE Casey’s attitude towards life and how he made ALL his experiences work for him. So encouraging 😄🌟Thank you❣️
Yeah, because ditching your first born child and then later make another girl pregnant, ditching her for your own dreams in New York, burning 20M USD and not even being able to pay half your rent to your now pregnant wife that you left alone is a GREAT attitude that we all should inspire to... and these are only the things he TOLD us about... His idea of "hard work" obviously mean not giving a crap about anybody other than yourself, as long as he get to do the things be loves.
I love how he makes it sound so simple.
Casey was absolutely the reason I made my first videos, and I still go back and watch some of his vlogs today. Thank you for doing this interview Steven and team
I usually wait to the weekend to watch an episode of the Diary of the CEO but just couldn’t wait! Casey is amazing, love how he just walks through life to the beat of his own drum. So inspirational! Thx for bringing him on 🙌
Absolutely
I really hope Casey get's back with making videos. We all love seeing them and they are so inspiring
As a 65 year old women I can say a mama has to adjust her dreams and goals to be there for their kids. If I had felt compelled to do what what I wanted I would have abandoned my children. Does that mean women understand their highest calling or does that mean they failed at identifying their highest calling? I chose my children without regret.
Well, from an evolutionary perspective, there's a big difference on how both genders feel fulfillment.
Men usually feel fulfillment by buiding things while women do it by building relationships, specially with their children in most cases.
Being a good parent is my happiest accomplishment and I wouldn't change it for anything
@43:47 That's actually me driving that truck past Casey in the clip almost 10 years ago! Lol
this guy is a modern philosopher... all my life... all my youth I was lost... but I started doing things... things that over time I learned to really hate... and from there I found what love... "If you don't know what to do... do what you hate..." that is the result of 30 years of pure and condensed meditation on how life works...
modern day philosopher? slow down
Great guy but my ass modern philosopher
Has to be one of the best interviewing sessions I have sat and listened to in years. Really nice to hear Carey just lay it out there... Nobody cares, do your own thing, do what you need or want to do to get what you want or need, and live with it, good or bad. Nice thing is to make it, and then sit back and just what you what, when you want, if you can actually be bothered.
Casey asks if he should let his blond-haired, blue-eyed daughter work with their hands. My answer is YES!! I was raised by a father who, for some reason, let his only daughter, me, do exactly the same as my brother.( taking out the trash, piling firewood, even chopping firewood...)Ok I had , on top of all the "boys" shores, I had all the girls shores... which my brother did not have to do. So at the age of 12 years old, I was doing construction work like installing sockets, light switches, and staining wood. One summer we changed all the shingles of an A-shaped cottage... Well, I am now 58 years old, I renovated a house myself and sold it for a very nice profit. I now own my second house, and I do most of the renovation myself. I am an artist, a mother, and a wife who feels empowered! I know I can survive no matter what. Having knowledge in different practical skills like doing minor jobs on a car, fixing a broken toilet, or building a raised garden... knowing all these skills is priceless! I taught some to my daughter. One day, when she was changing the sockets in her bedroom for newer ones, I was so thrilled to hear her say: "I feel like I will do fine in life. I have tools for it!" My eyes teared up!
You received a better education than your brother did. I would be willing to bet your brother has had difficulty in life maintaining basic chores like doing the laundry and picking up after himself.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.-your comment is very interesting because it made me think about the difference between them and me. One of them is like you described... but we have different mothers. He was treated as a favorite by our dad, and his mom did everything for him. His life is such a mess. He is absolutely unable to live on his own and at 46 is still living with his mom. He had 3 kids; 2 out of them don't even want to talk to him today.
My other brother with the same parents is way more independent, excellent cook, able to take care of himself, but emotionally is unable to live by himself and has always had a woman who works to bring money... and he takes care of the house, meals, car, ... Which is absolutely fine, atypical but fine.
So, in my view, the biggest detrimental mistake in education I see is overprotection and favoritism.
Casey is the best. I remember when he announced he was not vlogging anymore I was so crushed and got a little depressed. I was in a horrible spot in my life and his videos is what made my days a little better. I even went and watched all his older videos. Loved all of them. And I was never into watching UA-cam videos back then. I loved how he showed us New York city. The video that I first seen was when he crashed a drone in the river and got it back out. Crazy. But that got me hooked. The man is a legend!!!!!
Casey and his insane ability to storytell the way he does, makes him such a phenominal guest for this format... Thanks, DOAC team; I didnt think the bar could get higher than it already was! ❤🔥
Has he told the story about how the only way he was able to do all of this is because he abandoned his child in a way that the mother couldn't?
lasted 46 seconds.
Imagine being a grown man, and accepting donations / ad revenue from making cringey videos.
Casey was 200k in debt, his own problem, complete lack of intelligence.
Not only that, couldn't work normally to pay it off, needed to take the easier way, of patience and it will snowball.
Instead of patience working a real job and I'll eventually pay it off.
Guy is a massive sell out, and makes no difference that hes on youtube or not.
Guy took the money, that's all it takes to be a bankrupt shill.
He was at the beginning and still is now.
Casey's outlook on life is incredibly inspirational.
I've started and quit UA-cam many times for both right and wrong reasons. I've finally begun my podcast and I'm enjoying it more than ever, despite getting next to no views!
I've wanted Casey to be on this show for so long. I've seen / herd many of these stories on other podcasts before but "Diary of a CEO" always does it the best, always the most heartfelt, always the most inspiring.. Love the podcast and always love to see Casey.
I know Casey from the very beginning, his channel was just a little over 50.000 subscribers, so I'm always skeptical when new talks with Casey come out as they are often boring. Well, I'm glad I did for this one because Casey really open his heart and say some great things. That's way long format podcast are great for this kind of stuff: you need time for feelings to come up. Thanks man!
The BEST STORYTELLER on UA-cam! Loved every single vlog of his. Used to be my little escape daily.
I LOVE your interviews so much. Casey if we didn't already love you enough we love you more ! so transparent
He’s just a super cool dude.
One of the best vloggers out there.
One of the best Podcasts out there. Love to hear you do one with Bruce Dickinson on his business endeavors, flying and life outside of Iron Maiden.
Where was your *2 year old baby* during all of this?
I have been watching Casey's videos for years and he feels like the fun older brother I never had. He inspires me a lot and gave me the confidence to start my own UA-cam channel. I am forever grateful for him bringing that joy into my life and that he somehow encouraged me to chase my dreams.
Wow, this was a great podcast! I've seen a couple of podcasts with Casey before but never as in depth with as good questions as you asked. This was very insightful and I feel like we really got to see more into Casey's mind and life as a result. I would attribute this to the host for asking such great questions and leading the podcast in that direction. Never heard of you or your channel before, but this was fantastic work good sir!
The real hero of the story is his baby mama, because she was willing to do what te wasn't - taking care of his child.
Excellent interview - of:
- determination (to reach the anvil moment)
- patience (waiting for the anvil moment)
- trauma (dealing with fallout from anvil moment)
- motivation (to solve the problem and after solving to problem of the anvil moment)
Also:
- motivation (to solve the problem and after solving the problem)
This just resonates with so many of us today. I’m 50 now and I’m going for it finally. If that hunger is still there, never give up on it people! It will tear you apart later
Great interview. Casey is such a fascinating guy, and you interviewed him very well. Thanks for a great show.
One hour, forty six minutes and twenty two seconds and I was glued to my little screen throughout. It's the longest UA-cam video that i've ever watched and that's due to the incredibly stimulating dialogue that had my brain whirring with delight. What a joy to come across such quick and intelligent conversation for a change. Bravo messieurs from a little town in the South of France. You have a new subscriber.
This man is such an amazing story teller!! One of the most interesting and candid person you’ve had on your channel!! We need a Casey movie!! 👏👏
I just understood why I'm watching your videos. I guess I see how happy you are, in you and yourself within, with your mother and father and In that presence I feel I have that love within. Thank your for shining this light.
So many great gems but 1:38:34 is something that I learned when I was younger and it totally set me free. Casey has an amazing and inspiring story. I love his honesty as well as how he acknowledges the basic privileges most of us have and that he now has.
Casey Neistat was one of the reasons I picked up a camera 8 years ago! 6 years ago I started making a living from it and now earn the most I have in my life. My debut film won 6 awards and I work for one of the largest content creators in my field! I have so much to learn but as long as you are doing something towards your goal everyday, you are heading in the right direction. Patience is super important to practice, step forward to take opportunities and time is your ally!!
Congrats! Incredible to hear
In a world of 'fakeness' a beacon of authenticity shines bright and his name is Casey Neistat. There will only ever be one Casey, and thank goodness he is open to sharing his world with each and everyone of else who cares to watch, listen, we are all better off for the opportunity. GOAT CASEY.
He is one of the fakest people on the planet
clown
@@chollettgarrett More fake than reaction channels?
Authenticity is meaningless if you’re an idiot.
First video of yours I've watched. Interviewing skills are excellent. Pointed, knoweledgable, allowing the guest to speak, articulate, magnificanet. The "Why'd you say dark?" is a good example. Four words leads to hundreds from the guest.
Gonna check out a bunch of your other stuff.
This is such a great interview. So many gems of knowledge. I think Casey's best asset is his mindset...how he's able to see everything as an opportunity and be stoked to take it on to achieve what he wants
Hell yes. Best UA-camr ever.
CORRECTION: The best UA-camr ever is LoudMouthTim.
yes, if you are ten......good lad
Tom sachs influenced him a lot and his brother Van, I think Tom sachs is a little bit crazy and the artistic genius behind caseys success, and van and casey made that style popular due to casey's charisma.
Loved every single second of this interview. I have been a creator for 9 years and I lived all these changes and evolution. I won't ever stop, I just love it to much. Great job with this!!
I miss your daily blogs Casey. Hope one day you start up again. I get where you're at Casey. I also have reached a goal where I don't have to work at all. I've done different projects that contribute to my monthly income and have branched out into other area's that are a success, while some require the patience you talked about, but it's not like before where if I felt I stopped, a pack of wolves would devour me. You're correct about the pendulum, but during those times I really enjoyed doing what I did. Now the luster has worn off. I could do it again, no problem and probably will, but for now, its nice to do absolutely nothing but enjoy down time, exercise daily running (which you're and inspiration) and in the gym 6 days a week.
The interview missed the most important thing Casey kept saying. Casey does not wish to help people avoid the dark times. He wants people to learn what he’s learning called patience.
100% Casey became part of my life during his daily vlogs. My husband and i lived in a horrible little town in Central VT and opened a small store, working 60-70 hours a week.
"I'm doing this because I CAN" - finally, someone honest enough to say they got their FU money and success and is enjoying life. Good on you Casey. Livin' the dream.
He's able to do it bcause he abandoned his own child.
Great video. I so identify with his emotional journey. “Persistence”, “patience” for me was the “zero options” feeling I had about accepting the future people told me I had or copying the choices my friends made. Moving to another state with no job, no money caused me less distress and horror thinking about than staying and accepting those “options”.
One of the best episodes to date! Was absolutely riveted
I could listen to Casey all day, it’s so interesting, the way his mind works and what you can learn from him.
Great episode. Took away a lot from this one. Absolutely LOVE Casey’s approach with videos and his daughter. His children will grow up with the same drive he did, I’m sure of it. Great work all around everyone
dude abandoned his own child lol... how do you love that? It's not feasible, advisable and extremely frowned upon in any regular context
@@flexjoe2000 I didn't know he abandoned his child...
I really love how Candace and Casey let their daughter be creative on her own terms while also teaching her that validation from strangers isn't everything. Maybe we see a new generation of the Neistat family here on youtube soon.
Or a new social media without validation.
"the presence of a Plan B reduces motivation of a Plan A".. this is the most true statement I have every heard. I like most people have a dream of what they WANT(ED) to do (Plan A). However, I also have a Plan B which is an extremely high paying job that provides me everything I want in life EXCEPT what I REALLY wanted (Plan A). But the risk of losing everything by giving up my Plan B to go for Plan A is too insurmountable....
If it's high paying you should be able to save up for a while to give yourself a buffer, so you can transition from plan B to A?
Such an inspiration & authentic really wish he would still vlog on a consistent basis
Casey’s just so real, what a great guy
100%
lol until he tells his 9/11 story
@@garfunkle1980 He wasn't actually there that day? Obviously, the 'blown up apartment' part was hyperbole.
he said in a recent podcast he 'guided a cop sergeant and cops and instructed them what to do or some shit lol @@-._.-KRiS-._.-
Just love Caseys honesty .. "don't make your studio 40mins out of NYC, do it within 5mins" ... love thaaaaattt.
Now this was an episode I'd been dying to see! Casey, and last week's Esther Perel one, in fact. What a way to wrap up a fantastic year of great conversations! Keep up the awesome work, Team DOAC. ❤🙏
1. the joy of thinking on the fly....on your feet
2. sense of responsibility .... how you hold yourself to something
3. crazy ass way of viewing the world
things i liked .... one lucky dude
still preparing
I so wanted to hate this but Casey is down to earth and really knows his shit. Great interview.
I get it. I had a UA-cam channel for over 12 years. I felt I was making videos just for what I thought others wanted to see. I felt pressured for recording things I was not passionate about, just for the views. In 2019 I deleted that channel and started a new one filming things I am passionate about. Growth has been slow, but at least I don't feel pressured to "just make a video". I am doing what I enjoy. Will it ever support me and pay my bills? Who knows. I am not looking for cars and mansions. Just to be comfortable doing what I love and sharing with others.
Incredible to see Casey in this video - what a pleasant surprise! As a vlogger and content creator, his journey is a massive inspiration for me. I can relate to those some of the stories. Despite my channel currently operating at a loss due to personal investments in tech, I believe in patience as the key to future success. Thanks for this episode!
I am currently in that situation of not having a job or money, not even a stable home. This interview gives me hope and of course it is very inspirational but I know that it’s me who has to do the first step and have the patience to actually follow my goals in life. Thank you for this beautiful video!
Good luck! You can do it. :) You got this.
I was not expecting Casey here. Wow
Huge inspiration for me as a vlogger Nd content creator ❤
Thank you
Wow Wow I just watched 2 hours of this and I can say it's packed with so many lessons to learn, Thank you Mr Neistat and the host plus everyone on the production team. I will keep pushing with this youtube dream because on day one time it will work out because I love creating video and uploading them and this video has just inspired me to keep going
This is cheaper than therapy, longer than a workout and exactly what I needed to hear
This may have changed my life. So sincere, to the point, and very very inspiring to follow my passion, work hard and be very patient
Thank You Casey for existing. And may your story and legacy keep inspiring generations and enthusiasts forever
One of the best storytellers to ever do it 🏆🎉
I love Casey! This was so informative. On my channel I'm super secret about my anonymity and it's been such a great protection for my creativity.
Question: “How did you become so successful?”
Him: “Step one, abandon your child and leave all the responsibility to someone else.”
There are plenty of people who blossom into "living their dream" later in life.
Don't believe the lie that "if you were going to do it, you'd already be doing it".
Circumstances, mindsets and opportunities can and do change over time.
Greater things are yet to come.
LOVE this so much! Always great to hear his story and his challenges as an artist. I hope he makes his movies, even if it's just for himself 💖
I needed to hear this today. Thank you
Yooo u got Casey !!! The UA-camr that inspired my channel on the podcast that inspired my podcast ... Hell Yeahh Lessss Goooo !!!!!!!!!
29:00 - 30:10 patience could mean that person doesn’t panic as he chase his dream. I’ll use patience more from now on.
“Luck is where preparation and opportunity meet”- loved that. I just started my journey into UA-cam creation as a new mom. We live on a boat, life is beautiful and also can feel so challenging. But I know this life is so rich and abundant compared so many other places in the world. It’s important to know that. My whole goal is to share value to people who take the time to watch & dive into my life because their time is valuable! I’m working on that day after day as I continue this pursuit. Thanks for creating this, it made a difference to me. ❤
