Someone as smart as Mike should know video games are just another form of art like books, music and film. It's a form of interactive storytelling. Why all the hatred?
I envy the fact that these guys have stayed friends for so long and share a passion/ career with little to no drama. That’s the dream right there. Success can be fleeting. Friendships like this are so underrated.
Honestly, agreed. I have some friends like that, but we're all over the place due to work and life in general. It's hard to stay connected that way but when we jump online to hang out and such, it's like we never abandoned those times when we were all together. It's great. I've met people after them but I haven't had that spark at all. Some people you just connect with.
the guys were talking about going bowling on a stream, and I just envied something so simple like that. As you get older you lose a lot of friends that you just used to be able to hang with.
I wonder what would happen if they played a Star Trek game. Mike's love of Star Trek and hate of video games seem to be equally strong, so it could either create perfect balance, or blow up his brains.
Hawl 9000 I'm glad I wasn't the only one who caught this. I almost thought they were playing the game because Rich landed a job for being part of that game.
@@ScottCastle I mean ironically both RedLetterMedia & Angry Video Game Nerd both pioneered UA-cam and started the whole reviewer thing. Both started uploading the same year: 2004!
As someone who has captioned a 40 minute short film before, I completely appreciate that you not only captioned this whole thing, but also specified who was talking
rlm fans have this weird kneejerk reaction to jack because they perceive him as being some vague "hipster" or whatever it is that makes them feel insecure about their boring autistic lives
I only just discovered this channel even exists. And I can’t fully explain why, but just listening to Jay and Rich do normal people things, like playing video games, feels so strange to me.
they both thought Abe Lincoln? aw, Mike and Rich are best pals. all the jokes are just an attempt to disguise the fact that they're really very dear friends.
They should have included the bit where Mike destroys Jacks N64 on Half in the Bag and then Rich and Jack later wondering why it isn't working on Prerec.
Mike doesn't have time to hang out with these peasants and do all these video game nerd shit. Now if you excuse me, he will now go re-watch all seasons of Star Trek: Next Generation and Ghost Adventures with Zak Bagans.
Did anybody notice how a whole bunch of people under this video didn’t notice that a whole bunch of other people already asked if anybody noticed the background painter on the Duck Tales game was named Richard Evans?
the guy fucking sucks. maybe if he actually watched the show he would understand why walter comes to the decision, but he's watched 2 episodes and has decided he's smarter than the writers
The reason the Crazy Taxi episode isn't on UA-cam is because Jack forgot to re-upload it there. It was only ever streamed on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/videos/49132095
Mike joining in the video games is like in Star Trek when Picard joined the poker game
"I should have done this a long time ago. Where's Dr. Mario?"
Mike approves this message
God damn it I miss these fucking days
Holy shit. Apt as fuck man!
Brilliant
"No, I don't want to play any video games, I'm leaving."
From the compendium: The Quotable Mike Stoklasa
I like when Jack asks Mike and Mike says
"No. Never"
Someone as smart as Mike should know video games are just another form of art like books, music and film. It's a form of interactive storytelling. Why all the hatred?
Because he's old and thinks video games are for little children and a waste of time.
@@poppers7317 Just like my older brother, the skinhead trumpanzee.
“I’ll be on the bridge”
I am genuinely shocked there's an hour's worth of Mike on PreRec. It must have been a ton of work to find and edit them all.
i know right? when i read the title I expected it to be a 4 minute video
@ Apparently he wanted an hour to do with it.
@@tristan8940 LOL
imagine the ensuing brain damage from having to watch every video from their awful gaming channel.
@@famouspogs If it's so awful what are you doing here?
Mike sounds like he’s waking up from a booze nap in these.
Mike only has three states. Pre-, mid-, and post- booze nap.
That’s because he is
qurazy Thats right, Jay!
@DecepticonMecha don't mess with Mr booze
It's the heavy breathing into the mic that sells it
I envy the fact that these guys have stayed friends for so long and share a passion/ career with little to no drama. That’s the dream right there. Success can be fleeting. Friendships like this are so underrated.

Mike's love for movies is so strong , he REFUSES to enjoy any other form of media
The being we know as "Mike" is really just an alchemically constructed flesh golem made to imprison the soul of Roger Ebert.
I’ll never forgive him for when he called Oingo Boingo a shitty band. He detests anything that isn’t movies and Natalie Portman’s midriff
@@ArizonanSummer do you also love little girls?
@@ArizonanSummer you’re telling me you think Oingo Boingi is better than Natalie Portman’s midriff?
@@LinusBitchTits …It’s a really really good band
I wonder what would happen if they played a Star Trek game. Mike's love of Star Trek and hate of video games seem to be equally strong, so it could either create perfect balance, or blow up his brains.
He'd probably call it gay and leave the room anyway
I want Mike and Rich to play that Star Trek VR game.
Jason Fenton with the alcohol in his blood, Mike imagines that every day.
@pbhtllt There was a FPS Star Trek game on the PC that wasn't bad.
The Starillias New Horizon mod is the best star trek game
I cannot believe they missed the background painter from duck tales being called Richard Evans
And also Tim Curry worked on it.
Hawl 9000 I'm glad I wasn't the only one who caught this. I almost thought they were playing the game because Rich landed a job for being part of that game.
Technical Artist Tim Curry?!
I am falling more and more in platonic love with Mike. Also as I get older, I'm starting look more like him.
Mike. Let's merge.
JanPospisil42 *monotone and bored*
Whaaaaaaat?
JanPospisil42 Become just like Tuvix

"My Mike.....to your Mike.......
My thoughts.....to your thoughts......"
Genuinely shocked to see Jay enjoy video games
My favorite part was when Mike was trying to figure out Twitch. It sounded like an 80 year old discovering the internet for the first time.
To be fair Twitch is the cesspit of the Internet.
I love that Mike didn't know who the Angry Video Game Nerd was. Redlettermedia is entirely divorced from that school of youtube content creation.
It's funny because Mike and James are big pioneers for the YT platform.
@@ScottCastle
I mean ironically both RedLetterMedia & Angry Video Game Nerd both pioneered UA-cam and started the whole reviewer thing. Both started uploading the same year: 2004!
I imagine he knows about Doug Walker, though, and I hope he despises him
Jay playing games is the cutest thing
Jay is cute ngl
Put down the gay wedding cake guys

"We keep asking them what 'based' means and they won't tell us"

"Why are you failing?"

@@The_Order_Of_William_Marshal I distinctly heard them talk about all the systems they have the game on though.

what does base mike means? respond now.
Bless me with strawberry pop tarts plz
Rich: "I think it's a 4chan thing"
*whole room goes silent*
That whole conversation was adorable
based black man
But the ONLY appearance of Mike's I was aware of was when he played Don't Shit Your Pants and that wasn't here. INCOMPLETE!
Same here...that's the one I was looking for

@Bravo Two Six Romeo You're not my fucking dad.
Of course Jay Bauman played Lolipop Chainsaw. Of course he did it.
I played it too. It was fun. But never again. Too short and simple.
It's probably only because James Gunn was involved.
>Lollipop Chainsaw
>Short
>Simple
I'm guessing you played it on normal mode, because it's fucking Dark Souls with miniskirts on hard.
What a leap
*SUDA*
Really, it's a show about family...
Ya, like when your brother borrows your fleshlight and doesn't give it back
It really subverts your expectations, which is what makes it so satisfying.
And that’s what’s so powerful about it
Family family family...
Mike pretending he doesn't care about QWOP but being so obviously interested is adorable.
“I’m never going to play it” *5 minutes later
14:24 Rich is a Background Painter in his spare time.
And Tim Curry was the technical artist
6:35
"What does 'based Mike' mean?"
"We don't know. They won't tell us."
>Literally 3 seconds from having Mike say "Based on what?"
Idk, I think they mean how stream chat uses the word, and it's not that definition.
"Based Mike" means Mike gave a "based" (correct) statement.
mike and rich are based. They just downplay their powerlevels for jack and jay, plus the channel has grown since early plinkett
i want Mike talking for 24 hours as a background noise. i love that beautiful man
Hearing Jessi's delightful laugh ... RIP, buried in Mike's basement.
Do we know anything about her in this day and age?
@@Dimchek970 how? Wtf?
@@Dimchek970 no she isn't
Delightful????
@@MEHOLE in prison.
24:00 "I have to leave, but I'll be back. I'm only leaving for a little bit."
Well, Jessie? How long *is* a little bit?
Thank you Previously Recorded, we REALLY appreciated it.
WilliamV it's true, we really did
Stealing your friends flesh light is the ultimate betrayal.
If Mike were on this more often I might actually watch it.
Same
As someone who has captioned a 40 minute short film before, I completely appreciate that you not only captioned this whole thing, but also specified who was talking
Did anyone notice in the ducktales credits, that Richard Evans was the background painter?
wtf
For some reason it makes perfect sense that the only video game Mike seems to like is QWOP.
Cadebenson or Octopuff in Kumquat.... I mean Octodad
Mike never did get to play Dr. Mario on stream...
Rest in peace
Legend has it Mike is still asking to play Dr. Mario
"Shut up, Jack" - This is why I liked Jessi.
lostcause78 yeah, she is dead now
rlm fans have this weird kneejerk reaction to jack because they perceive him as being some vague "hipster" or whatever it is that makes them feel insecure about their boring autistic lives
@ONE VISION ONE PURPOSE
holy shit, fuck that bald dullard
Jim Varney Jay is the hipster, Jack is just Reddit incarnate. He also makes lots of soy faces.
John DarkSouls he is the worst by far. jay is a hipster but jack is insufferable and worthlessly unfunny.
he's a good guy though
Mike beatboxing sounds like something you do to make a baby laugh
Must've been a lot of work, thanks mang.

I'm 26 and I had no idea what based meant for the longest time.
@@JDobbsy79 sure, if you're a complete normie pleb
Hearing Mike mention Lil B blows my mind.
RLM has a communal fleshlight
The OSHA-approved company fuck rubber.
it was called Jessi
Rich stretched it out with his monster dong.
It was originally a flashlight but after Rich used it....
37:24 "Try to beat me.. try to beat my score" good save Jessi
Stellar job with the curation of this and the included links and time-stamps.
I'm gutted wel'll never see mike play getting over it.
On his first fall:
"Ok i'm done. Goodbye."
1:58
The way Jessi says this makes her sound like a mom telling her son to share with his friends lol
I only just discovered this channel even exists. And I can’t fully explain why, but just listening to Jay and Rich do normal people things, like playing video games, feels so strange to me.
Mike is their leader.
The best part of this collection is the complete silence after Jay's "Tay Zonday" joke.

The only crossover that matters.
"Based? Based on what?" - Mike Stoklasa, 2014
14:30 are we not gunna mention that Richard Evans worked on duck tales
Holy shit
Mike playing QWOP is just the purest thing
Mike: Everyone likes my beatboxing
Jessi: No. Nobody does
Mike not understanding and enjoying video games is the same as William Shatner not liking and understanding Redletter Media
I love hearing an old drunk man read live internet comments. Very good.
There's nothing weirder than boomer Mike learning about twitch memes etc.
they both thought Abe Lincoln? aw, Mike and Rich are best pals. all the jokes are just an attempt to disguise the fact that they're really very dear friends.
You've done a fantastic job at compiling this!
Why didn't they just let him play Dr. Mario :(
It blesses my heart that Mike used YTMND
Ok, listening to this, it is true that Jack and Rich sounded and seemed happier on those times than in recents streams...
Now you know why they ended it. It's okay though, Jack is now doing streams and videos with Yathzee who seems to gel pretty well with him.
@@OdaSwifteye Why did they end it?
@themorrigan7224 probably time consuming. And the profit wasn't worth the time spent
Wow I wish one of them had commented that Richard Evans was a Background Painter at 14:28
Thanks for the time and effort of finding all this! Just a heads up, what's missing is footage of "Mike plays Don't Shit Your Pants".
I remember reading that Ducktales was a huge inspiration for Mike and Rich as kids, i really liked finding that out
Can we get a 1 hour long livestream of Mike just beatboxing while Rich Evans recites experimental poetry?
I know this is from 2 years ago but we still need this to happen
This is exactly the UA-cam video I've been looking for. Yay. Thanks Code Ave IV.
They should have included the bit where Mike destroys Jacks N64 on Half in the Bag and then Rich and Jack later wondering why it isn't working on Prerec.

Yaaaaas!!!!
49:40 I thought Rich's scream went high pitch for a second there lmfao
Oh my god I literally cannot unhear that
"Based is a rap thing.... Lil B" made my 2018
Bebop Cola ikr
I love how proud everyone is when Mike is playing qwop
14:29 confirmed Rich Evans worked on Duck Tales
Imagine having your own studio and having your friends and you do cool proyects.
I'm gonna have my lifetime with this.
Whoops, you forgot the time Mike sat in and actually PLAYED Don't Shit Your Pants!
The fact that someone captioned this entire thing blows my fuckin mind
Jessi's no longer in video's and is never mentioned now....Don't fuck with Rick Springfield!
zabukazar I always wondered why she left. She was way funnier than those Canadians.
People got really creepy; she still works in the background but doesn't show up on camera.
TOASTEngineer I’ve heard she doesn’t work there anymore since she and mike broke up
O Canada! Our home and native land!
I heard she is there behind the scenes but there was probably a bunch of creepy viewers and wasn't worth being on camera
Did anybody notice how a whole bunch of people under this video didn’t notice that a whole bunch of other people already asked if anybody noticed the background painter on the Duck Tales game was named Richard Evans?
QWOP is so uncomfortable to watch, it reminds me of sleep paralysis in the form of a game
14:27 The gang not paying attention to the credits where RICHARD EVANS turns out to be the background painter of Duck Tales
The best part of this compilation is everyone saying how stupid Jack is for not being on board with Breaking Bad.
the guy fucking sucks. maybe if he actually watched the show he would understand why walter comes to the decision, but he's watched 2 episodes and has decided he's smarter than the writers
This is a public service, thank you
Jessi is gone and there is a strange smell coming from Mr Plinkett’s basement.
@@calypso wow
I love how intensely mike gets into QWOP
11:19 Based Jessie
thank you a lot for the subtitles

i wonder what it must be like to have random videos of yourself just _showing up to talk to your friends_ get over two hundred thousand views?
Must be nice
I miss the old days of pre rec
"Anyone who doesn't like Breaking Bad is a homo"
Perfect gf right there, Mike is a lucky guy
No. because it shows she's close minded.
minus them being broken up, of course ;x
Conrad of Montferrat they broke up? When did that happen?
The true hero of Naruto It is pure speculation. They are still in a relationship according to Jessis Facebook.
She sounds like she's 13 years old.
This is the closest I can find to a Previously Recorded Best Of compilation.
@14:30 how did they miss that in the credits of Duck Tales the Background Painter is Richard Evans?
"Anyone who doesnt like breaking bad is a homo"
jack confirmed for gay
That Crazy Taxi episode doesn't exist on UA-cam anymore. Probably due to the music/copyright
The reason the Crazy Taxi episode isn't on UA-cam is because Jack forgot to re-upload it there. It was only ever streamed on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/videos/49132095
Can we just have a show where Mike makes fun of stupid meme catchphrases?
Credits @14:29 Background Painter: Richard Evans
Mike is an anthropomorphic personification of sarcasm
14:34 Richard Evans is a background painter and no one points it out?
