      Still don't like it, BUT the auto-cue and fake reading of the paper script is a lot better (think of all the paper you can save!) ... it brings it all back together as one, rather than the "here's a bit from Danny. Here's a bit from Simon. Here's Danny again. Back to Simon". I didn't even finish watching the last one, but 10mins in to this one, have to say, reading from the eye line... that fixed it. Btw, every now and then, Peter could be a cabbage with a face drawn on... looking up, or looking surprised, turn it round for different faces. Just a couple of times, to raise awareness of all the people who are in persistent vegetative state, wasting electricity.

    I follow most of Simon's channels, as I imagine most of us do. You find a good content creator, you stick with them. For what my five cents is worth, I preferred the old format. I know the team involved have a lot of different factors to take into account and the idea is to make the channel as successful as possible. But if I want to see Simon chilling at a desk, I can watch about 74 other channels for that. I liked OGBB's absurdity, rampant ADHD, impenetrability and in-jokes. It's still great. But I initially came here for the Simon and stayed for the ridiculous script slapping, whingeing about having sore legs, and introductions that were basically a tangent of a tangent of a tangent. I guess there's a lot of things with AdSense and views that we don't see, and they are looking at new directions. But the past isn't *always* the worst.

      I wholeheartedly agree with you. It's just totally not the spirit of the show to have Simon sitting at a desk...
      It just kills what made this show stand out, extremely enjoyable and very dynamic...
      I understand Simon's going through a huge "wanna turn everything into a Podcast" phase, but he should REALLY listen to the huge amount of long time fans that give vital feedback!
      It's just like you said: if I wanted to watch a show where Simon is sitting, I'd choose one of his 74 other channels.
      It's sad to see BB go down this path.
      It's still very good, but it's lost its spark and its soul...

    That ATM thing actually happened to my parents once. They wanted to take out $50, got $1,200.
    After a few days they got an angry call from the bank saying they were gonna take it out of their account, they'd go into negative, get an overdraft fee, and they were bad people. My parents just said, "do you want the money back?" They hadn't spent it, they'd just left it at home. The bank was stunned they hadn't tried to get away with it. They hadn't tried to get away with it because they weren't stupid.

    I certainly can understand Simon sitting down during these, as they tend to be lengthy, but I admit I prefer a less intentionally chopped-up main story. His tangents are fun when they spring up organically. Intentionally chopping things into segments makes it feel less spontaneous and takes me out of the story in a way that Simon's tangents do not. But, like, that's just my opinion.

    Second, I love all the asides, Danny's long intros, and your batshit rants, it is what makes this channel great. I watch a few of your channels, decoding the unknown,, into the shadows, and casual criminalist. All three have a theme which makes them great and they are a joy to listen to while gaming and are a highlight of my week.
    Business and Brain blaze are very hit or miss, when they hit they are better than watching Cheech and Chong movies while stoned, when they miss it is almost ear rape. My recommendation for a theme for BB is to keep original to OGBB, because those and your florida man episodes are AWESOME! it doesn't need to be about business, it needs to be a man going apeshit on camera with memes to back up a "plot?". That in my opinion is OGBB, and btw, standing or sitting does not make much of a difference, but Danny's intros do make a HUGE difference because you tend to do into rant mode more organically.

    Friend of mine was a technician for NCR pre-COVID and those ATM machines are $15,000+ (at least here in the US). The advanced ones that dispense large and small denominations (50s and 100s down to 5s) are even more expensive due to needing multiple trays and bigger computers. That's why most of those types of machines are typically kept _inside_ large branches. Not cheap like the ones you find in bars, which are usually kept stocked by the bar ownership.

      In the past (94-96’ish) the only ATMs in Vegas that had $100s was in casinos. The normal ‘cassettes’ hold, in $20s, at most $80k, but putting that much in there would usually result in the machine jamming. I think the largest, in the amount of cash, of the 6-7 ATMs I installed when Sunset Station (casino) opened up, held around $350k.
      We did have a few cases of the bank vault mixing $1s, $5s, $50s, $100s into a fill bag that was only supposed to have $20s in it.

Push too hard on any end of the stick and the other side comes up to smack you over the head. That's politics. Any extreme is bad... balance is where things works. Thus opposites like Facism (Nazi) and Oligarchy (China) are both bad. And Absolute Democracy gives you the French Revolution while Absolute Monarchy gives you the um... French Revolution. The French Revolution is a perfect case study in 'too much of anything is toxic...'

There is a reason extremist populists get power in the first place, the status quo is also a nightmare.

    Hey Simon, are you reading of a Teleprompt and faking the script read? I ask this because you haven't lost your place in the script as far as I can tell, you don't seem to be looking down at the paper long enough to account for the length of your sentence and finally, you go right on with the script straight after a Tangent while still looking into the camera.
    If thats the case Well Done 👍👏
    If not, Then you need to Work on pretending to read the script while reading of the Teleprompt 🤫👍👍

    Simon re-names the channel because the content is, by design, not very professional. He then proceeds to unprofessionally cock up the name for a year. Shortly after, he decided he likes a professional, dare I say it, BUSINESS-like presentation… and somehow we’re supposed to believe that Florida man is the real idiot. I love this channel, please don’t you dare keep anything the same ever. What meaning does OGBB even carry anymore. Great stuff.

    30:30: When I lived in Bangkok, I saw a movie that had a major scene right outside the movie theater where I was watching the movie! I was literally inside the building that was behind the characters in the movie I was watching inside that building!
    When I lived in Tokyo I would often see my office building in movies, but the funniest story is when I rode the train to the middle of Tokyo to meet for a TV shoot and then rode with the crew all the way back to where I lived for filming. I used to act on Japanese TV, commercials, and movies, and for one shoot I rode the train for 30 minutes to the meeting point, then with the crew and actors all gathered, we piled into several vans as per usual and went off to the filming point. I remarked about how close we were to my apartment as we rode to our destination, and then finally we passed my building and then parked ~100 meters down the road to film in a nearby park.
    I was in a TV spot that had my apartment in the background!
    Last story: I was on that particular TV show often, starting with bit roles and eventually taking more prominent roles until I was the main character in a few episodes.
    During one shoot when I was the main character, there was a flashback to a previous episode from long ago when I had been doing bit parts. When I started taking major roles in this show I was usually some kind of bad guy or suspected bad guy-a menace-type character-and in this episode I was the main suspect in a crime (though I was a red herring), and the flashback was meant to show a similar crime solved by the same forensic doctor, and it showed me as a police officer finding a major clue!
    I guess in this show I used to be a police officer and then decided to upgrade my life to creepy menace who everyone thinks did the crime but actually not!

    The censored Chinese version was closer to the original ending than the US and UK version of the movie. In the Fight Club book written by Chuck Palahniuk, Tyler’s plan fails, and the buildings do not explode. After the Narrator shoots himself, he wakes up in a mental hospital. He is later approached by the hospital’s staff, who claim to be Project Mayhem’s members and also state that they expect Tyler’s return. The novel ends with an ambiguous conclusion which makes Durden’s return a possibility,

    • @wingerding
      @wingerding 4 місяці тому

    Simon, About eating Animals.......
    Several years ago we were sat eating our dinner and one of my daughters paused and said 'Daddy, is this meat a dead animal?' Im thinking 'oh crap, here we go' but i wont lie to my children over anything so i said Yes Freya and held my breath for the fallout but the response i got was 'I like eating dead animals, they taste good' and started munching on her dinner again. My wife and i exploded in tears of laughter, it was so funny.
