Great work.

Thanks for the credit, but it feels excessive vs my low effort of posting one link to a photo (golfers playing during a fire) that was already appearing all over news websites.

Credit costs nothing and the photo turned out to be perfect for the spot it's in!

I've shared this on my Facebook twice now and nobody has commented on it. It's really weird. After watching, I legit expected it to blow up within 48 hours.

A little EQ, a touch of reverb, slap on some compression and there. That'll get your dickbutt jiggling.

If you think that is bad, I got credit and the one image I posted I don't think was even used!

And you need to know what is being parodied. I'm guessing 5 hour podcasts are not so popular with the 30 second attention span crowd.

Nah. I've never heard of the podcast. The video stands on its own pretty well.

Dan Carlin is pretty great though and you should sit down for one of his 20 hour episodes on people being terrible.

I have no idea if I'd have bothered watching the video if it came out six months ago but I started listening to Dan Carlin at work this summer and had just listened to the Anabaptist Apocalypse episode like a month before this so I definitely appreciated knowing the main inspiration for this.

It's not modified much, if I recall correctly. I may have moved the beginning of lines to be on beat, but I don't think there was much editing within lines there.

been sharing this with everyone. my 64 year old hippie dad didn't finish watching it because it was depressing but I don't think he's embraced nihilism like most millenials :v:

mandatory polygamy is probably the best part. Carlin sounds so loving shocked by that.

I've watched this three times now, and my sides have split every single time. I had no prior knowledge of Dan Carlin or Hardcore History and I still found this hilarious, so for me at least it works perfectly as a standalone satire. Also having spent countless of hours doing stupid audio edits of various TV and radio programs I'm stunned at how seamless this is. Great job.

I've shared this with a bunch of folks, but not getting a lot of responses. Maybe because I live in Northern Europe people don't appreciate art.

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for making what is currently my absolute favourite thing.

I still have no idea what that surge the other day was about, but it's back to just a bit above where it was in terms of daily views. Still seems to be going up slowly though, so who knows?

Yes, rich people have always used poor people for their own ends. Is anyone really surprised by this?

Rich people have always used poor people to fight wars for the rich people's profit.

Maybe they just don't care if people with short attention spans don't watch it.

I'm sure a lot of people think they get it after like 5 minutes and turn it off.

When I finally made it to the end, it was so worth it, but it wasn't the first time I sat down to watch it.

You're really comparing a YouTube video to a movie? Most people don't go to a movie expecting instant content but do click on YouTube videos with that expectation
