This is the way it used to be..."reporters" used to go in boots on the ground. I went into Journalism school in 85 and it had already changed as the 'if it bleeds it leads' and they had gotten rid of the fact checkers. I left the industry. Now it's even worse...propaganda and circuses. These young leading edge journalists are our only hope. Thanks for keeping us old timers informed.I haven't watched msm for 20 years and have been a YT and podcast listener for 15. For 5 in there I just didn't follow anything and I opened a restaurant. Best years of my life.

Andrew brings a sort of "local news" feel that we have lost over all the commercialization and serialization of our News Agencies. I remember when our local news channels would do very similar reporting on local stories when I was growing up.

What happened to Andrew with “All Gas No Brakes” is almost exactly the same problems that most newly signed bands eventually run into with their first record label. The only thing that’s changed is content creators are the new “undiscovered talent” to sign, instead of bands/artists.

Asmongold will never see this but a early documentary that nailed this style of reporting was called bible camp, it was excellent for the same reasons where the narrator did not interject their opinions and just let people talk.

This is why I loved Bourdain's parts unknown prior to his death. While he interjected with his opinion between segments, it was pretty clearly his opinion and he kept it separate from the lives and opinions of the people he interacted with. Spain and New Mexico come to mind.

I really liked the video. It's a bit disingenuous to say he's the "only honest person" that media has left, because there are quite a few people out there doing the same exact stuff he does but with less fanfare. Him getting shafted by the meme company made him extremely sympathetic and renowned. But in general I think all of the points made were fair or dead-on.

Asmongold is right about the fact that some will be born with "unfair advantages" and have a far better life than others. I agree that you have to at least try and make your life better instead of just giving up and complain about losing. I came from a poor family and grew up in the ghetto. I didn't let this define my life and worked smarter and harder to get out of this situation. Not everyone will "make it" in life through hard work alone.

He's successful because he just asks a question and lets the people answer with what they think, instead of telling the viewer what he thinks the person is thinking. Can't beat the real.

The news has started to decline since the 70's, scary enough the movie "Anchorman" is about the decline of the integrity of reported news.

In just a years time Andrew got his following and views back he’s definitely a legend

As a Canadian, I want to counteract your story from your friend. Wait times in Canada are ABSOLUTELY NUTS. Now, I'm not weighing in on government healthcare vs private healthcare, I just want to point out that crazy wait times in Canada is not a myth.

He is kind of a younger and more timid Louis Theroux, who is able to get a lot out of people by just being kind of friendly. Highly recommend his documentaries.

I’m 55 and I was watching the news since I was 12 that I basically understood. I remember news of Vietnam in 1973 74. But from 1976 it’s changed every year...95 media corporation monopoly happened ...its a story of history technology evolution. It depends on where and what you’re looking for and what you understand and want to understand.

I've learned so many things by asking people online. Games really have the power to bring us together.

great video, for some reason I always vibe hard to the outro music and it's a real cherry on top of the video haha

I LOVE every video with Asmon reacting to channel 5 😂❤️

Letting people talk does not really make thing honest or real by default. There is still editing. And it can be a f**king powerful tool.

So many great on the ground reporter's have been doing this. Never heard of the dude. I like his work tho. We need more of this but shadow banning is next level.

LoL Hasan is hypocrite.

I’m mostly a lurker in most streams but I just wanted to say thanks for the cool video for me to fold my laundry too! ❤️

I got my dad to watch the NRA video today after he played like 10 of his justice type videos. Could tell he was actually interested more while watching Andrew compared to his boring regular news shows. I love how you introduce new content that I would normally prob. never look up or find myself on youtube because I had never even heard of Andrew. Just love his channel now and ty for sharing his work!

i had to get a lawyer once and he worked for 250$ an hour. ended up paying him 2 grand for turning in some papers to the courthouse. id imagine a contract takes way longer

Asmon's reaction videos of All Gas No Breaks is probably one of the few remaining videos with the full episodes

that poor camera news guy is just at work trying not to get stabbed

I agree, I was playing a game with someone in Russia and asked him in discord, what its like over there with the war and everything going on. He said he doesn't want to be in a war and that with the sanctions from the US, its expensive and hard for him to provide for himself and afford everyday necessities.

although i love to listen to asmongold pause a video to give his opinion as it is pretty insightful and entertaining, but the pausing sometimes gets me so impatient XD

Health service in UK is a bit sketchy. My work colleague - before the pandemic - waited 4h with stab wound before he got stiched. Or about 1 year queue for dentist. That's national health service.

"Show, dont tell" is the Filmento

6:25 "There's a person driving every one of these race cars" RockTh3Casbah : "No way" Thank you for the chuckle, Rock

This has aged well.

How the turntables. Seems we really do die heroes or live seven months too long and see ourselves become the villains...

LOVE THAT BOY !!!! Been following him since ALl GAs No Brakes and it bummed me out so bad when that happened, but he is coming back HARDEST!!!

this is why we cant have nice things (2023 update)

He does mini documentary's which is the realest news your gunna get all real! no strings.

I'm surprised to see no mention of sir swag in this comment section. (Just to note I'm not trying to advertise on their behalf, I just feel his news is also pretty honest as well) its a text to speech channel and they do monthly global news recaps and I gotta say they are my main news source at this point. Id recommend giving them a watch.

During the ad, someone in chat said "Yogaverse" and that was the best thing I've seen all day

Canadian here. 13h to fix a broken foot when I was 19, and a 3h ambulance wait time for a "we see the bone" leg break during a HS football game few weeks back. Doesn't happen all the time, but it happens.

What happened to the burger cooking vod? I need that wholesomeness

What were the other channels they suggested or you guys suggest a news similar to channel 5?

hes actually pretty biased.

Of the Internet personalities to have a controversy, this one was especially disappointing.

Crip Mac is a modern day super hero. You don't see many other people out in the hood feeding people for free, giving people a feeling that people actually care even if it's just for a moment. That's powerful stuff for people who are down on their luck that far.

It's an interesting way of reporting the news and very different. The news is definitely like showbiz. Our news in the uk isn't quite like the USA news. I think news is changing especially with creators now on you tube. I think that now it's so much more interesting hearing views from people on the ground. Zach with your channel I love your views on the trial and your laughter of Depp vs Heard .ive been wanting to start a channel myself on missing people because there are so many nisding people in the world. my interest in media has gone on for year's. I studied media in uk and I found even local news keep restraints and they could do so much more. I've learnt so much more at 53 on you tube and throughout the trial I've watched yourself, The umbrella guy , Mercado media productions, Swoop and Popcorned planet. All of you have different styles and techniques but ultimately, your all amazing. Thank you so much for what you do it's pretty remarkable. What do you think you will do after this case? Do you think you will do anymore cases? Many thanks from Sonia from Unsolved cases and news. Love your work it's very inspiring

As a Canadian, that was never my experience. I almost died from appendicitis because I had to wait in the waiting room for an hour as a 3rd grader, and recently when I went to the clinic for a doctor's note it took like 30 minutes and cost 30 dollars, then there was the nearly 1.5 hr long wait to get my hands looked over and get a 70 dollars prescription.

A of a friend of mine, doing an apprenticeship at a "metal engineering" company (can't find actual profession name), in his free time, designed a some sort of adapter for a tool the company used. When he showed his supervisor at work, they yoinked it, fired him threatening legal actions, and then when things settlet, sold the patent for the adapter for millions.

He started with bourbon street confessions while he was in school was always hilarious to watch.

I love this guy!! Been watching since the beginning of all gas no breaks!!

It is not free, you have to pay the government every month.

ah. this aged well

That receptionist in vice encapsulates pretty much everything i hate bout receptionists.

I find it kinda funny that the 2 people in the video changed their voice to be deeper and it synced weirdly. But Otherwise, I didn't know about channel 5. I'm binging his content now. Thanks Asmon :)

That title didnt age well

I'm watching a reaction of a reaction video. What the fuck am I doing?

Thanks for letting me know about him. Didn't even know

wtf that was like a cliffhanger in the end

12:30 he wasn't killed he died becouse of drug abuse :)

aged like milk

I love Andrew for the same exact reasons I absolutely loved KassemG. The real OG’s remember Kassem. He’s a little different in that he would talk a bit more the more he did it and got comfortable but it was the same concept. I mean Kassem literally gave pornstars a platform to show how cool and down to earth they can really be.

That ending though... haha 😂

Here's one thing I noticed... he blurred the faces of the rioters, but not the people speaking out against it. Andrew shows his colors with that alone.

This is good and all but we all also watch asmon for his opinions and take on things, so not much different from the news, but i guess the main difference is the news owned by someone and asmon is just a regular guy

I love your point about the internet being a way to ask people who are actually involved in something about their perspective on it. There is a lot of negative things to say about omegle but I have learned a lot on there from so many totally different people,, and a lot of people have learned about certain things from me. Being a good teacher requires you to be a good student/listener and vice versa.

I remember when he interviewed the viral guy drinking cranberry juice on Fleetwood Mac's song (doggface208). He was running so fast chasing the skateboard lol.

About the healthcare, it isn't fast to every country that have free healthcare. As a Canadian, normal waiting time in an emergency room is 10 hours. Normal waiting time to have an appointment or a surgery with a specialist is over a year. It's actually, absolutely, awful.

Andrew such a beast

He doesn't offer any conclusions, he doesn't poison the well.

There is a spelling error in the description it says ubscribe instead of subscribe Also great video btw

Aged well

Annnd now look at the situation with andrew...he has been targeted and is currently being "canceled" over some chicks who, as soon as andrew got a major deal and was about to start making big money, they get wind of this and move in to try and extort him for everything he has and everything he will get or else. No one is perfect and if you ever get big and someone wants to cancel you I have no doubt things or people can be found to do just that smh.

in Quebec we have a show called "Infoman" with an journalist called Jean-René Dufort. He basically do humoristic journalism. Asking weird question to politians and everything. He goes into protests, in the action. It's informative and funny at the same time.

Diogo Defante do the same "silence interview" thing here in Brazil, its crazy how people speak some crazy shit when they dont know how to do. I love this kinda things, great content

I would pay money to see asmon do yoga streams lmfao

no traditional music journalist is more influential than fantano. and id argue people like Redlettermedia are more influential than any traditional movie critic. Now 3 guys in an rv on youtube are making the most exciting, authentic and insightful investigative journalism around. traditional journalism went corporate and fell off hard

The fact that these guys use the exact same speech/enthusiasm when they are talking about Andrew and when they are doing their ad tells you everything you need to know about these guys.

I’m a new subscriber! I really enjoy listening to Asmongold perspective on things. I also enjoy listening to dad!I will add though the Canadian medical system is not free, lol! His parents are paying excruciating taxes to keep this system in motion….just saying.

I'm glad that he moved on from the contract scam.. Let this be a lesson to everyone.. Don't make locked-in contracts with people who's just in it for the money.. Look at Asmon, he passed up the deal with Twitch..

Fkin rip lol

I have a friend in Canada and I asked him the question about the Healthcare there. He told me the basic things are free and usually no wait time. Emergency room things like broken arms of course you're seen immediately and things like having the sniffles or routine checkups. But specialized care is not free and you do have to wait.

I love when everyone can have a voice

Regarding the software engineer contract thing discussed around 33:30. All companies claim the IP of work you do that relates to their business, if you work for youtube and build a video sharing site, it doesn't matter if it's on company time or not, YT will own that site if it's successful and sue your pants off if you try to hide it. If it's unsuccessful, they won't care. Some other companies, I think some famous examples are Oracle, IBM and service companies like Infosys or TCS are famous for just claiming all of your IP, regardless of business scope or when produced. This actually became an issue for some open source projects at some point in the last few years because parts of their code was contributed by people at some of those companies and they were trying to claim it. There are thankfully some companies that let you do stuff outside of their business scope as long as you don't do it on company time. Fun fact that people subbing to Asmon might like: Almost all the big video game companies own any game you make while working for them, regardless of genre or when you made it, if you were working for say, EA, when making your Tetris clone then EA owns that code. No exceptions.

thing is, he’s still creating the narrative cuz he’s the one who edits the video…

YES. Letting people form their OWN opinion after a story is true journalism. No narrative....just let people see what's going on and what real people say. No polish, nothing. Just tell the story and let me decide.

Adding to the last point: Sure outcomes is what sorta defines success but often the most successful people are not outcome oriented. Paradoxical I know but try to be mindful of not trying too hard to reach a long term goal but instead appreciate the process of what you are doing today.

Exactly like musicians all through the history of the business. Unless you really know contracts , most loose their copyrights .

I don't have time to watch the video now but I'm gonna leave this comment here regardless before I come back to watch it when I have time: treat any news source or media as if they could lie and deceive you. Even though someone has been truthful thus far it doesn't mean that they will be truthful in the future. Everyone has agendas despite how hard they might try to be impartial Andrew and Channel 5 have always complete control on how the footage gets edited, you're never seeing the raw footage so there's always the possibility for misinterpretation

Oh man imagine having too tell your five year old kid that the missiles going off is just because of fireworks. That’s just sad 😞. Also I love this style of reporting boots on the ground and letting people talk or ask questions etc.

My favorite media lie is when they cropped Donald Trump's "very fine people on both sides quote" to make it seem like he was including the white supremacists. The guy is already deplorable, but they still needed to make up more garbage so they could keep throwing tomatoes.

I think what really makes him special is that there isn't a cut back to him at the end of the video we're he describes the right opinion

*interrupting to explain to the audience why its bad for anchormen to interrupt and explain things to the audience*

I used to live in Canada and yes you do have to wait to get surgery for instance carpal tunnel my sister waited over 8 months, in the US you would be schedule the next week. “Covid” has made things even worse people were waiting for over a year.

Wild I just watched this earlier today

I have so much respect for asmon he is a good guy and he is not a dumb ass I love that he asks questions to understand things

News is just an overpaid reaction video, Andrew is a salt of the earth journalist.

I would say hes honest but also hypocritical,he does into these ultra red states where trump supporters are like a massive spread,and of course many of em are crazy but he films them and only them making them seem like the only ones who are that way,when in fact ive met many of them who are incredibly nice people,and ive met people from the other side who are just horrid human beings bit yet he never even talks about it,and thats what urks me the most,when people talk so bad about one side but fail to look at the other and blame everything on the one they talk so bad about,it sucks bc people like him can change politicsl thinking so easily,just like Billie Eilish saying to vote for Biden,that was just dumb af

Tim pool. Andy Gno, just some names that come to mind when i think of real news.

A good comparison to news stations lying and pushing a narrative was the video of the Maga hat kid

His video suffer from severe editing issues. He often edits out chunks in the middle of people's sentences for comedic effect. Very annoying.

I don’t know if there are any news reporters as good as Andrew on the internet but he’s not the only honest one left, asmon reports on events and I feel he does so honestly. Plus he’s only limited to American news mostly it seems. We have a few really good investigative reporters still in the U.K., they produce some fantastic documentaries on legitimate issues without bias like the media companies that run the media. Honest and legitimate reporting isn’t dead it’s just there aren’t as many real reporters left anymore

Well I'm pretty sure some newspapers would be bold enough to do that but there are lawsuits in place if you are hurt during work you can get sued

Headline News it where I feel it all started with the 24 hour news/entertainment.
