freddie was such a large part of my childhood glad he is doing what he loves sure do miss him on youtube none the less but glad he found what he loves

Freddie was the first non lego stopmotion creator whose work I fell in love with during my childhood. He is a creative inspiration

So much of their start can be attributed to their landlord. He was the chilliest and coolest dude (still is today) landlord ever. He was about the arts and supported the artists.

You two are probably my absolute favorite people to listen to on the subject of being an online creator. You're both very talented and very hard working, while also being down-to-earth. Really appreciate your videos, Jack.

I just want to thanks Freddie for all his work ,it was great but the sad part is that now he left.I hope we can see him again one day

Hey! Great interview! I had no idea Freddie was behind Dungeons and Daddies. Love this peek behind the scenes. Could we have a "making of" where we follow creators through one iteration of whatever it is they're making? I'd love to see a start to published podcast episode, music video, or any other kind of creative project. Would be fun to see!

Freddie Wong was a major part of my Teenager years along with Pomplamoose. Great interview!

What an absolute delight to listen to people, who are passionate about their craft, absolutely geek out! Fantastic!

Freddie W is my fav cewebrity!

I love this so much! Would watch anything and everything from Freddie back in the day. And as someone from Brazil that is able to live from his passion thanks to Patreon, this is a perfect duo to hear from! Keep them coming Jack!

I encountered Freddie's presence late. But that guy, what a class act of a human being! Dungeons and daddies is a thing that brings me such joy. Now I'm working backwards to see how FE became who he is.

Hey Jack! If you see this, thank you for being so THOROUGH w your creative spirit. The fact that PATREON is founded by a musical person is so inspiring for working in multiple mediums. You the king man!

Its nice to see Freddie on KZfaq. I would love to see him return!

Excellent conversation from two "cewebrity" experts. Also, two guys who have taken a bunch of at-bats and done a bunch of different things! (e-sports player/filmmaker/D&D podcaster, musician/KZfaq influencer/tech founder?) I made a video essay about Video Game High School and Rocketjump, and I wish I could go back and include some clips from this!

Would love to hear more conversations like this!

Great convo with great people 🙏🔥

its interesting to see how much entrainment has evolved it really isn't in its final form yet great interview hope all continues well for both Freddie and you Jack

Always love when Freddie shows up on podcasts. Every once and a while I search for him to see if there's a podcast he's on! Thanks for this!

Freddie's interviews over the past couple years have been so excellent to watch! Being an OG KZfaqr AND showing everyone that you can bring movie-level VFX to short form content, he has such an incredible insight into both the creator industry and the traditional film and television industry - I grew up watching him and it's so cool to see his journey! Can't wait for more groundbreaking stuff from him. This was an awesome interview!

Step 1 - relentless experimentation, Step 2 - ruthless self-criticism

I owe a lot to freddiew, he's the one who inspired me to go into motion graphics and animation. i still believe he's underrated and needs more recognition

We really miss the old freddiew videos. Even today watching them, the quality is so.high compares to what filmmakers do today

One of the best KZfaq channels that i followed during the early 2010 era. 😇

I fully understand that people get burnt out doing a job for so long. It is still a shame that Freddie Wong ended the Channel. I can see by the comments a lot of people miss it too. I'm lucky to have been around during the channel at its best. Just dream of another season of VGHS lol

Very interesting interview. Just to let you know, I love scary pockets but dead wax surpassed it. I hope you can find a way to make it work again. It was your new idea that I really dug. Thanks for it all buddy.

9:54 wowww Freddie ya did it. Brought Valence Shells into the equation 🤭 XD superb video

Been following rocketjump and freddy since the birth of his channel and KZfaq. Love his work. Currently listening to dnd season 2 lol

Around the 19 min mark I think you mixed up Anthony Burch and Will Campos 😉

I agree with what he’s saying about how making KZfaq videos is so difficult today. Back then, you could upload whatever you wanted, a funny cat video, a poor effects irl video games, a comedy skit. Even all the way back in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017. Now KZfaq is basically higher production videos, web series, documentaries, even well edited let’s plays. It’s crazy and it’s awesome, but it’s hard to do it alone anymore. Media is mad. I’m an author, but I run a minor KZfaq channel. I started it years ago and would just upload gaming and documentaries, audiobooks. But even one video depending on the length took days to edit. I was doing it all by myself. I was having to upload multiple times a week, sometimes 3 videos a week. I couldn’t do it. I had to search for a good editor to do it for me so I could do other stuff. It’s almost on the verge of short film-tv shows. Twitch is just garbage tbh. I tried it for three months, streamed regularly. It’s so hard to grow an audience and you basically have no life, always streaming all day. No thanks. Id rather have a life.

Ohh, I member! Golden era! Them and mysteryguitarman, smosh

I was in the military during this and we would watch the videos back in 2011 and I really liked them so good it was sad day for many when we lost all them great video shorts and they seemed to have so much fun doing them lke the floor is lava and the jedi ashole or the kung fool so many great ones.

Im glad you got this opportunity to get with freddiew. Schlatt proved recently that freddie still has the power to captivate all of us. I think he puts his skill too down, as even though it was corny it was intentionally so and thats what made me comfortable and let my guard down when watching his videos.

i remember watching ALL OF FREDDIE WONG’S VIDEOS ON ROCKETJUMP CHANNEL!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love Freddie, absolute legend.

I mean Nigahiga did the "see ya" move too during peak content he kept pushing

5:28 - to this day I still love their 10 day battlefield commercial video. So chill and so epic. #StressLevelZero

Heads up Jack, Will Campos and Anthony Burch are mislabeled at @19:08

I think the rocket jump video was the first one I saw of his. It was like the same week it was released. I help up with all his stuff since, well until he stopped with youtube. I actually own VGHS even.

I don't know how to explain this... but as a guy who was influenced by Rocket Jump those many moons ago, this was something I really needed to see.

Great stuff Jack, loved it

just met you at creator fest, I am a huge VGHS fan i love how worlds collide with Patreon

We miss you Freddie...

You earned yourself a new sub.

One of the OG youtube goats

I love that he's wearing a Donut Wolf shirt from Night in the Woods in the thumbnail

Who's interviewing who? Because I keep getting cut off from listening to full thoughts

12:08 Anthony Burch is the man on the bottom right, not the top right.

This guy was my childhood

16:50 - what he said about dictatorship vs a democracy was also said in their BTS video on how they made their battlefield commercial.

i’m so obsessed w freddie wong

bro let freddie speak gaddam

so excited for this

29:40 - DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's fucking go!!!!!! I can't wait!!!! :) :) ❤️❤️❤️

28:15 my guess is Casey Neistat is to blame. He started dailey vlogging in 2015 and had a huge impact on the culture of KZfaq.

I miss you Freddy, bring the gang back for some more VGHS

this was amazeballs!

Freddie gave me the ability to completely give up, and abandon aspirations of anything. Once I saw the level he and Brandon were working at, I realized that sometimes, even being early to the game, is way too late.

Hi Jack, can you make a video about time management?

I'm not crying you are

about time!

Is Will and Anthony miss labeled in that photo?

Freddy was being interupted way too much. I really wanted to hear what he was going to say about advice for people wanting to create new things, but he was cut off.

This guy will not let Freddy end a sentence. Holy shit.

Now it's time to bring BrandonJLA on. You can also bring Michelle Phan on also. Also Corridor Digital.

Hell yeah freddie wong

Any of you assholes know where Freddie keeps the Christmas Episode Special??? I've been looking for it forever!

Cewebrities will stick if we make it stick!

def miss freddy. wya boss.

Jesus love the interview, hate the pencil writing in the mic

Dungeons and Daddies was Freddie's rich daddy I'm deeeead

Fucking legend

one more season of vghs please

Jack, I honestly miss your musical voice. You're there in Scary Pockets, Magaziine and all... but I miss the compositions, your singing voice, your inventive arrangements. Just thought I'd pass that along in case you were feeling that way too. Have a great week

That's a very loud pen...

Yo you gotta let people finish their sentences. Like the interview but I cringed a few times when Freddie was interrupted.

yoooo

Guys I know I'm late, but i have a next idea: The Floor is liquid nitrogen/ice! Like my comment guys so that they see this...

Freddiew the ledgened

I backed all of their KickStarter projects. #VGHS

0:37 technically blackface

Uwu swebetiesss uwuuu

If you can produce, why don't you produce autonomously? Because synergy! Watching artists discover entrepreneurship liiiiike

5:08 Oooooh the Patreon guy! I was wondering where I knew this guy's face. Hey man, banning dissidents is really lame. The adults have been right about nearly everything these past 7 years. You should expand your horizons and consider they're not as evil as you've been told.

O

Man you really need to learn the art of the conversation, poor Freddy is gasping trying to get a word in before you interrupt with your views which, frankly, are not very interesting in the company of greatness.

Freddie created a huge fan base. Then just disappears. Feels a bit like a f you to the fans . His fans helped him become who he is.

Sell out

why do they have to sit so close together. you have more than 1 camera lol

“Ce-WEB-rities” made me throw up 🫤
