Q&A - Summer 2023

Hey everyone, it's been a little while since our last Q&A so... it's time for another one!

Pretty much anything is fair game. Want to know my thoughts on some semi-current event that I never talked about in a video? Want to know my favorite dog breed? Want to know how I'd deal with some insane hypothetical situation that you've concocted? Want to know my Credit Card number? I won't answer that last one, but the rest are pretty much fair game! I'll A your Qs right here in the comments over the next few days. And of course, if you've got a question for "Advice Patreon Asked For", private message it to me, and maybe it'll end up in a future video!

Thank you as always to everyone for your support!

Q&A - Summer 2023

Comments

I haven't really watched the UFC in a while, to tell the truth I don't watch a lot of professional fighting in general. With boxing, I'll watch highlights and stuff, but amateur boxing is quite a bit different than professional and I don't like their styles to influence my coaching. As for the UFC, I kinda stopped watching around the era of St Pierre's career winding down, Anderson Silva finally having his first loss, that sort of stuff. And before that I was a bigger fan of Japan's Pride Fighting Championships.

Adam Buckley

Sorry I’m late to the party! I was just wondering since you are a big fan of boxing, if you enjoyed watching other styles of fighting, like in the UFC? And if so, who are some of your favorite fighters?

Brian Bingnear

I'm familiar with them, but I've only ever heard a couple songs, never really got into them. Maybe I'll see if those would interest me, thanks.

Adam Buckley

idk if you'll still be reading the comments on this as it's a little old but have you heard of the band King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard? they're my all time favorite group. you've mentioned you like metal before and they have two metal albums (infest the rats nest and petrodragonic apocalypse) and the rest of their albums are all sorts of explorations into different genres and they seem to do them all well. i think they're worth a try!

Not really, no... I've only ever flown like twice in my life (4 times I guess if you want to be technical, two round trips in my life) and I'm not AFRAID of it or anything but it doesn't hold any particular excitement for me the way it seems to for people who aspire to be pilots.

Adam Buckley

Have you ever wanted to learn to fly or be a pilot? If no, why not? If so, what airplane or helicopter would you want to fly?

Very good choice πŸ‘ŒπŸ½

CajunMane

Thanks Niko, I appreciate it!

Adam Buckley

Yes and no. I mean certainly things were probably slightly better than they are now, although I do wonder what the 90s would have looked like with social media... but being an adult just comes with a lot of responsibilities that suck in general, and so yeah... the first real public school shootings, Oklahoma City bombing, the Gulf War... the 90s weren't exactly peaches and cream either

Adam Buckley

No question, just commenting to say you've been killing it on your channel recently and I'm glad to be subbed to this patron.

Niko M.

Were the 90s really a golden age in the USA or was I just an oblivious child with no responsibilities?

Rebecca

How I started was basically I just started. Like, one day I decided I was going to try and write and record these bits (before that I had a website no one ever visited called "The World's Worst Reality Show" that was a sort of blog where I'd write rants, this was before I went into radio) and so I just started doing it. Being self-motivated is a HUGE trait that is required to work on anything creative. No one's going to tell you what to do or how to do it, you just have to say to yourself "ok, this is when I'm going to have something done by, I need to hold myself accountable". I think it's impossible not to worry a little bit about what others might think. The trick is to use that as motivation to get better, and to know that not everyone's criticism really matters or has value, some people are just assholes, but that if enough people are saying the same thing, and no one's saying the opposite? They're probably right and you should consider listening to it.

Hey Buckley My name is Abiel Estrada an 18-year-old who recently graduated from Florida as someone trying to make their creative projects. How did you start? And also did you worry what others might think which is sometimes I do a lot of the time?

Two part question. Can you juggle; and if so can you juggle well.

Star Wars. I've seen one full episode of a Star Trek show in my entire life (it was an episode of TNG that was on at my buddy's house when I was a kid, his Dad was watching it while we played cards).

Adam Buckley

No, not that I'm aware of anyway. If I have been, the papers got lost in the mail! But no one's ever been like "I'm gonna sue you for defamation". I'm pretty careful that way anyway, it'd be hard to do... any time I'm mentioning actual allegations, it's me quoting a news source. They'd have to sue them, not me.

Adam Buckley

Star Trek or Star Wars?

Chef Salad

Has anyone you’ve criticized in one of your videos ever gotten so salty that they threatened you with legal action?
