My camera is broken. (Also, please vote in the Song vs. Song poll.)
Ah ha ha my ancient camera that I should've replaced a billion years ago (we partially filmed Suburban Knights on it. It's old.) won't let me get the goddamn files off of it because both the USB port and the SD card reader stopped working. So it's in the shop! I've been trying to get this episode done since, no joke, before I went on summer vacation and things just kept coming up and I kept pushing it back, so naturally when I actually filmed the goddamn thing the goddamn camera finally gives up the ghost. I wanted to get this episode done by last month. I'm annoyed and frustrated! But at the very least, it's time to upgrade the camera. (I also recently replaced my ancient lighting rig which flickered constantly and would occasionally fall over on me.)
Anyway, I have a Song vs. Song poll up. We're going back to 2006 where we talk about two male-female duets where they flirt and probably don't have sex, Nelly Furtado ft. Timbaland's "Promiscuous" and Shakira ft. Wyclef Jean's "HIps Don't Lie." Please vote! https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-poll-hips-vs-91716283

FWIW Biel has said she's not against kids getting vaccinated so I dunno if i'd call her an anti-vaxxer(at least not on the same level as say Eric Clapton or Ice Cube) As for this album, it's definitely misguided and clunky as hell, though I do roll my eyes at some of the people acting like they never liked JT. I don't think his arrest is going to do much to affect his career frankly.
30:26 - The end of your sentence is cut off as you transition away from talking about Imagine Dragons. Awesome video! Once I realised this was the album with “She Keeps Me Up” I started laughing with delight. I’ve known about it, never thought I’d get to hear your take!
Nickelback performed at the outdoor hockey game between the Flames and Oilers this year.
Hope you are back in action making new videos soon. I am going to see Coven (or at least the singer and some new band members) this weekend in Berkeley at the same venue I saw Wyclef Jean do "Hips Don't Lie" without Shakira a few years back.
When you have an opening in your planned videos, are you considering doing something on the new Beatles track Now and Then? I want to hear your opinion so I can adopt it uncritically as my own.
Hoping and praying it’s a Trainwreckord of Justin Timberlake’s Man of the Woods. The fact his career is so in the toilet he has to go crawling back to N’SYNC is hilarious Regardless though. Glad you’re getting some new gear! Great to see you grow
Suburban Knights, what a throwback! Used to rewatch the hell out of that one tbh.
I think I lost a year off my life just from reading the words 'Suburban Knights'
Heh you know I'm sure if you sold some One Hit Wonderland requests (like even at 700 dollars per request) you could get a new camera paid for like... 5 minutes man. I doubt you'd want to considering how you don't like being forced into requests for possibly months at a time but just making a suggestion.
Rip Todd's Camera, we'll save a seat for you in Camera Vallhalla
If you need more cash to pay for an updated camera and lighting equipment, I'm sure there's plenty of us who would pay for those One Hit Wonderland requests. I'm sad I wasn't a patron when we had the chance to buy those.
I second that. I'll even let Todd pick the subject of the video.
No worries Todd, you obviously put a lot of work into your videos so we're fine if it takes a little extra time anyways, and it's especially understandable in this case since it's out of your hands. I'm sure no matter what it is, it'll absolutely be worth the wait
Don’t worry, homie, my Patreon dollars will pay for it
