Who would have thought that the modern-day philosopher would be found on TH-cam?
I love you Damon, have a nice day
not my cup of tea lol had to go back on ur channel xD
🙌
Ha ha! I am loving this collaboration! Thank you!
I think Damon might be my favorite human on this planet
That's exactly how I imagined Nathaniel's version of "red wine talks" to look like 🔥💯
the only person that thinks they are on 'red wine talk' fire, is themself ;-) lol
Hey Nathaniel i wanna see you on vodka
@Sonam @Ana Medina How bad you are… jajajaja the reply to this comment are hilarious, i cant stop to laughing hahahahahahahaha
omg yeeeeeeeeees
white couch talks
I like that answer: "I'm grateful to be American, but I'm not proud." -- I would agree with that statement.
Why should you be proud of something that you had nothing to do with? The luck of birth made you an American and not some tribes been sitting in a jungle somewhere. But where would you have been happier? who knows.
@slidenapps Pride is not reserved for only personal achievement. You can take pride in something you're closely associated with, such as the place you were born.
I empathize with that so much. I have a lot of friends that came to the US to survive, and saying that I wish I could get out feels ungrateful. But I'll never understand these right wing, flag flying, patriotic citizens, when we still have so much wrong with this nation.
I strongly disagree, the pride comes from being able to pass the legacy. That's is why people are proud of their nation/country or their family. If you are not proud of the values you were born into, those values will stop exist.
I am eastern European (Czech), to me USA is the country where all important next big things in IT technology are born. Country that protected Europe from nacism, helped reestablished economic growth there, helped to the whole world by creating the internet which is educating millions of not billions of people now.
what a conundrum
I really want to see this same conversation but with someone from a suffering or 3rd world country, it'll be interesting. I'm, myself, from Sudan, which a poor suffering, 3rd world, developing, and full of problems and conflicts country, and noticed that all my answers, even if they are the same as yours, are different in a way, I argue from a different perspective, you know. We are in the globe, you think about the technological leap and improvements, but here people still fight for their basic needs and rights, and still live in places unsuitable for living. The gap of the developed and developing countries is getting bigger and deeper now.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This makes my head hurt. I'm old, so my perspective is different. I have left the US permanently. I think about all this stuff but I think it is a waste of my time. I think I need to think less about what is wrong (I AGREE WITH ALL YOUR COMPLAINTS)or about what is going to happen, to let go of it and just pay attention to my own state of mind. Betty White just died and she is currently my hero. What a phenomenal state of mind! Work. When I was young I liked work that didn't pay enough. Now it is even worse for idealistic young people. The only thing that makes me more optimiistic is what you can do with technology. You are doing it! I have come to a few conclusions after a difficult life: Do work that you love. Build and protect your self confidence and self respect every day of your life. Be kind always. Understand yourself intimately. And something few people do, know who you are. Ask yourself if you believe there are other dimensions. I have experienced this and I am in good company, Carl Jung, Maya Angelo, Carl Sagan, etc. We want promises and concrete results when we are young. We want financial security. But if you look at those who have lived this way, with these priorities and beliefs, they are astounding human beings! People can be a success in their chosen career and be people you don't want to meet, like Picasso!
For sure man, but comparison is the thief of joy... why not focus on the fact that we are getting out of poverty at the fastest rate since the dawn of time?
I cherish all of the privileges like being able to maximise my potential, having a perfect house with running water, having abundance of food, all the while as Nathaniel pointed out, we are Living in excess. It all has benefits and dow sides look at the obesity crisis in the world right now, how mental health dysfunctions sky-rocketed since covid.
I am very ignorant to you're privileges and pitfalls in the 3rd world countries but there must be rudimentary joy in the simple things of life, strong social connection, love. Everyone is struggling everyone has it rough, the best thing we can do is perceive it positively and keep as jordan peterson said so eloquently- Struggling With God...
And I would like to see the same conversation with someone older, more mature. This all came across as 20-year-olds talking crap.
my parents are from Sudan too
I'm not complaining, but I found that it is hard to find people that can generate this kind of conversation. When I try to come up with this topic, most of my friends will just shift it to another topic..
same here. I'm still searching for a deep-thinking community who will converse the perplexities of life with me. they're out there. we'll find em!
DUDE I KNOW. My friends aren’t neurotic or pessimistic like me nor do they want to think about anything political, philosophical, or even religious like discussing religion politely. They literally just shift the conversation to some anime they’re watching (and don’t get me wrong I like some anime). It’s so hard to find people truly interested in these topics
I guess you just haven’t found your tribe yet :)
I had this problem also when I moved to a new place. Most of the year I felt very alone. But I started spending time with people who were into art, like this style ^, or anything really. Sculpture, painting, photography, etc and it was exactly what I needed. We had these kinds of conversations all of the time. So maybe look for new friends at gallery openings or museum events haha!
It's a mood and some people aren't comfortable with uncertainty

this video is such a testimony of the fact that putting down your phone and actually conversing with people is SO GOOOOOOOOD.
Yet many of us are watching this right now alone on our phones.
@@aarond9563 ya know. Social distancing.
Nathaniel: Microdose and collab?
Damon: I’m coming over.
microdose?
@@emanuelcarvalho8510 shrooms
Anyone else wish they were there to talk too. There were so many times when I wanted to interject like they could actually hear me lol
This is the kind of conversation that we all dream of having with someone but we have never found that someone, am I right?
You'll find your people. It just takes time, and not being afraid of being vulnerable.
@@PrincessOfTheYew I agree. Being willing to let your vulnerable self come forward is the most important part!
I think you gotta take the plunge and risk seeming weird sometimes 🤷🏾♀️ that's how you find your people 👌🏾
No. If you've ever lived in a freshman dorm you've had this conversation thirty times already
@@Mateo-et3wl I haven't unfortunately
just start a Podcast already
Riiiiight??!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS
yes please
Right I literally just put on one of playlists and let it run through I just listen to like a podcast I don't even watch the videos.
omg yes.
I think it's so important to address that you come from a place of privilege when talking about the meaning of life, escapism, and simulations because, for example, although your future self could be controlling your past self and leading them towards a place of growth, why would someone lead themselves into poverty or sickness? I'm not saying y'all don't consider or understand this when thinking about reality, but I think it's necessary to mention when talking about these things.
Very important to bring this up in these kinds of discussions. Thank you otherwise it might have not occurred to me while pondering about this video. If I understand you correctly you’re saying this understanding of reality borders on meritocracy in some ways is that right?
Facts.
I felt this during the video game discussion
Why do they need to address it? It's obvious
You're absolutely right. But their idea could still work with that, in a similar respect to why people put themselves in uncomfortable or painful situations at all. It creates extreme personal growth when overcome. The question then is if it's worth it to go through all of that suffering to become a "better" person or a more "evolved" person. Ascetic monks seem to think it is... but then it seems like it matters more if you choose to do that to yourself. So if you, a future you, chose to put yourself through that, could that almost be a sense of comfort for why a person experiences so many of the hardships in life?
It's similar to the Abrahamic religions who believe that God has a purpose for all of the awful things that happen. Do I agree with either theory? Absolutely not. But it seems to be much more a spiritual and philosophical question of why evil exists, and if it can possibly be justified through growth.
i feel like if i had deep conversations like this with someone i’d fall in love with them
i am LIVING for this friendship
this was such a deep and genuine conversation that I felt like I was there in person 😳
IKR, I love that about these two!
I want friends like this to have conversations with.
I want friends
Same 😭
I m french, I live in San Diego and I feel the very same way.
YES!
let's all get friends then
Damon is optimistic and that's why we watch him 😂 we need more of it these days to get through what we're going through
I loved the last collab they did on Damon’s channel and clicked faster than Damon could throw shade! 🤣🧡
😂😂😂
Omg 😆

i love that you talked about america getting so much attention in the world because i'm from europe and i think about that a lot. why can i name 10 american fast food chains but not one national dish from uhhh el salvador for example. the imbalance is crazy
i was thinking about this the other day! sometimes i'm more aware of what's going on in the US than what's going on in Europe
It’s also not good for us Americans because we are often viewed as dumb for not knowing much about other countries. It’s because we are totally absorbed with information from our own media that the only way to really know about current events in another country is by actively seeking out that information. It doesn’t just show up on Twitter, Facebook or Google for us unless we are searching it
@@clembark good point!
@@clembark Right, so it's media is sadly skewed then to control thought. Not cool either. But also there isn't a general interest in the masses finding out more. That can also be perceived to be dumb too. But I understand living there, that the bustle and size is a clear obstacle just naturally. So big, It's a mini world in of itself.
Still, in America you can have access to all the information about every single country, nation, religion, languages, traditions, culture, food, habits in the world, and in many cases there are courses for every single of them in the best universities on the globe. Believe me, in certain countries it is still extremely hard, just see what is happening in a wealthy city like Hong Kong, and I don't even want to name countries like Iran, Syria etc etc etc etc etc.
Also: I can name 10 American Nobel Prizes and none from El Salvador, Georgia, Gabon, Luxembourg etc (even though maybe there are some if I search on internet)
I can name 10 American athletes that broke sports records, 10 American writers, 10 American outstanding actors, 10 American singers, 10 American generals, 10 American scientist, 10 American philanthropist, 10 American outstanding entrepreneurs etc etc.
I can also name 10 ethnic groups that escaped wars based on religion that found a new home in America, and the name of 10 countries that were saved by America or were part of the Marshal plan during and after WW2.
Yes, indeed the imbalance is crazy.
you talk about the systems being broken - as a Brazilian, I would argue they were built for that exact purpose and are working as they should
Yes! Exactly! There's no broken systems, only systems purposely created to benefit those already in wealth and power
i'm mad at myself for not having thought of this sooner
Damon: H
Nathaniel: Give me a percentage
So, Buddhist meditation is sitting with "the feeling" until you notice that "the feeling" is changing of its own accord and the fundamental nature of everything is change and is impermanent and is emptiness. And the whole dream of your life that you thought was real was just a dream until you wake up and say, "Oh, yeah, it was just a dream. And now I'm awake." That's the first turning of the Dharma.
(From The Midnight Gospel; The Annihilation of Joy)
If damon thinks 'time is an illusion' is funny, he should dive into some buddhism for sure....;-)
@@apparently_sonam Time is the biggest illusion that one lives in so that one doesn't even realize it's an illusion. That's the ultimate illusion according to Buddha. You can check out this channel fore more exploration.

@@liveandlearnthelife1637 thanks but if you re- read my comment, I must have known that already to suggest the connection. I've been practicing for 3 decades now. I would say the ego is the ultimate illusion, but therein time is a direct manifestation of that... :-) x
In recent times; there’s been so much focus on evolving technology but that hasn’t got us very far in terms of how we treat each other and our world. Hopefully in a century; we shift our focus to evolving spiritually
I could not agree more. We must evolve to become more empathetic and inclusive
Reyna Singh This omg I wish people understood and felt how important being empathetic is, even more so than technology or material things
I agree that setting limits to wealth would be difficult however, I think an ethical and moral question comes to play when you're questioning the existence of billionaires. Is a billion dollars earned when using child labor? Exploitation? Could the billionaires of today have built their wealth without blurring the lines of ethics and morals? I think that's the more interesting question.
I AGREE SO MUCH WITH YOU I CANT-
Also when people say "but thEy eArnEd iT" they're forgetting that (as you said) they exploit a lot of people and resources in the process and the systematic way in which they weed out competition. Moreover in many countries, the ultra rich pay lesser taxes (in ratio to their income ofc) as compared to the working class. Not to mention their political influence too so
@@shreyaanand9360 yes!! for real dude! and people wayyy underestimate how much money a billion dollars really is. There's less than 3,000 billionaires in the entire world!
If you support rules prohibiting the exploitation of people then you support rules prohibiting billionaires. There is no way anyone can become a billionaire without exploiting people. You are either against exploitation or you're not. Possessing a billion dollars is inherently unethical.
Annabeth yes! that’s what I was trying to say. If we had those rules we wouldn’t need wealth cap rules because then there would be little to no billionaires!
I feel like I’ve just witnessed what the perfect date looks like. Cute.
“There are three deaths. The first is when the body ceases to function. The second is when the body is consigned to the grave. The third is that moment, sometime in the future, when your name is spoken for the last time.”
― David M. Eagleman
I also heard that that the 3 deaths are the death of naivety, the death of innocence and then actually death
@@retro1786 dark, right?
damn
Dark is the best show go watch it my philosophy friends
"Should there be billionaires?" Is a pointless question. A better question might be "Can you ethically become a billionaire?" or "Should billionaires who exploit laborers and evade taxes be brought to justice?" or something like that. Every conversation that revolves around whether there should be a law against making a certain amount of money is missing the point.
What a wonderful way to put it
i couldn't have put it in better words... and probably it would generate more conversation cause then you're dealing with real chances. In the world we live in rn and at capitalism's current stage, its basically unavoidable to have even richer ppl taking advantage of much more laborers, but trying to get together a plan to make it stop is a good way to spend a conversation
A better question is "Can you ethically steal the money from someone because you think he has 'too much' money ?" Theft is Theft. Leftist ideologues always start by doing hatred speech against the wealthy and end up by making camps and stealing everyone.
@@shakya00 wage theft in the US totals more than any other kind of theft. rich people and employers steal more money than anyone else. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make but the US houses like 25% of the world's prisoners and not anywhere near a quarter of the world's people. If you want to talk about horrible "re-education" camps, look at prisons in the US, look at the 3 strikes law, and listen to people talk about their experiences in prison.
@@robw6202 I'm not American, i'm from the most taxed country on Earth....France ! We know here what is a thief. When the State steal you close to 50% of your salary before tax, it hurts and we get a lot of "protections" against evil employers which would be a wet dream for your AOC and co. Guess what ? In this paradise of workers : wages are way lower than in USA, stagnant while they rise in your country and employment is high (before the crisis a record low of 7.8% since 2007 vs 6.9% now for the US in crisis...). In conclusion that's not the evil employer which spoil you but the State. The more the State is involved in the economy the more it hurts the people and especially the poorest who can't find easily a job in France because they are expensive, hard to fire, the laws are too complex and the economy too slow to create enough jobs.
Painting watercolor for ~ 40 minutes with this awesome conversation is THE VIBE
Damon is living in the present, which is needed.
Honestly, I never knew how much I needed this collab and now I don’t think I could survive without it.
why couldn't you survive without this collab?
@@vincemaltese16 Just a hyperbole :)
@@AlanisBraun ok thank you for replying. To be honest what I really like about Nathaniel is his ability to find the right words in the right contexts and also his uncommon vocabulary. I think I get a little bit underwhelmed when I read certain words used to express simple appreciations for a video.

Loved the discussion, these are the conversations my husband and I have in our spare time. Love that others are asking these questions and pondering the directions and impacts.
This is the type of conversation I have with people when I'm high
😂
I feel like my personality is somewhere between Nathaniel Drew and Damon Dominique and this is like two sides of me having a conversation. 😆
Dude I can't stop stareing this guy's biceps
Man is VASCULAR

@@aurielle112 home gym. Pushups, pull ups. Lots of stuff that can be done at home with little to no equipment.
I came upon one of your more recent videos and then this one popped up as I was doing the dishes....made me smile, recognizing so many conversations Ive had with my friends abroad from 20 years ago to still now. I feel so extremely fortunate to be able to live abroad and travel. It is also humbling the more you share and learn. Treasure these friends and conversations.
Pleasant surprise seeing you both in the same video, loved the conversation. Yes to more!! Much love to both of you 💯❤️
Another sit down with you two guys?! We are blessed.

I never seen Mr.Drew talking this fast LoL
I find extremely dizzying to think about the fact that most of us, especially during this time, have allocated a mental space (for me it's a big space lol) to think about things happening virtually. It's just so crazy that most of the time in a day I'm thinking about a conversation between two people I "know" virtually and about what the other people like me are talking about in a virtual discussion. My mind is occupied by things that don't exist outside my phone or computer. Like, in my mind, I live on the internet.
MY TWO FAV TH-camRS ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! the most thought-provoking & quite possibly my favorite video ever made
If you enjoyed the topics discussed in this video I highly recommend checking out The Midnight Gospel on Netflix. Or, alternatively, if you're more into reading: 'When Things Fall Apart' by Pema Chödrön, 'The Will to Power' by Friedrich Nietzsche, and 'The Consolations of Philosophy' by Alain de Botton.
Also the new season of Keeping the Kardashans and the new Bad Bunny LP.
airesoyaire Obviously
The consolations of philosophy is mind blowing 🙌
As much as I love Nathan! I felt he needed to let Damon speak more than himself.
I felt it even more when
Nathan: "Is there a storm coming??!"
Damon: "I HOPE SOOO!" 😂😂😂
I laughed out loud while feeling bad for Damon!
I love, LOVE having these types of discussions! I think I reflect on these types of questions a lot, but it's so rare to actually talk about them with other people, so it's refreshing to hear your and Damon's perspectives.
I realized that I could listen to you both talk for hours! This was such a great video. I wish i could have conversations like that with people around here.
I like how interested you look when listening to Damon talking
Really interesting video overall, it is nice to hear you guys opinions on these different topics !
Also, if you ever wanna visit 📍Tours 🇫🇷, hit me up 😺
I think the difference on a foreigner criticizing the US and a foreigner criticizing Argentina, for exemple, is the fact that everything that the US does, it affects the rest of the world, in a good but most commonly in a bad way, cause America comes always first, no matter if the progress for americans will mean the destruction of the rest of the world. By that being said, I think anyone should be defensive when someone else is talking about your country, but not Americans, cause what the US does is actually what is gonna rule what is gonna happen in the rest of the world, which means, we all should be criticizing America.
I think that’s true that what they do will impact central and South America. But I don’t think their actions will always impact the rest of the world. America is very powerful now but they have not always been and that can change
I agree with this but I see a huge difference in someone from a country the US heavily effects negatively criticizing the US and it’s international actions as opposed to someone from Western Europe or Canada making fun of the American health system, school shootings, the failures of the American education system, etc. (which I see so much of) when those things are 1. Not in control of the citizens because of our electoral system and 2. Negatively affect Americans more than they affect others. I get defensive about the latter but the former is completely justified imo.
The collab we all need! I love this! I love both of you
Damon hittin us casually with the ''the way out of the simulation is when we ALL realize we're in it'' - t r u t h
Nathaniel please continue these kinds of talks, because they are soul nurturing, elevating LOVE
I've had this idea for awhile
Two of my two favourite youtubers 🙌🏽 TF!
saaame
Florence Ryan 😜😁🧡
Yes. I didn't know they knew each other.
Tysheen Orane yeah, check out Damon’s channel for their other collab ☺️🧡
I will literally just listen to these like a podcast while cleaning and I love it
woah... i’m literally cleaning my room right now 😂
omg, this setup is perfect. I used to watch Damon and Jo so so so much a few years ago and loved them but seeing you guys talk is just a whole other world of entertainment (and enlightenment of course!)
Thanks for that.
this video is so comforting. The conversation, the atmosphere, the bg music. MWAH
Love your video! You were one of the inspirations behind my channel, thanks for the additional motivation!
I have been thinking Ashley (@bestdressed) and Nathaniel would get along SOO well and today I find this video, Damon should introduce them! We need "A conversation with Ashley."
Hell yes
Gotta say this was one of my favourite videos of yours. I love it when two of your favourite creators just get together and have deep chats.
Yeyyy!!!! Two of my favorite TH-camrs together in this deep conversation! Maaaan, thank you !!! Much love to you both! ❤
I’m glad I came across both your channels independently. Now I can enjoy your collaborations even more. It’s like how 6 year old me felt when batman showed up in a scooby-doo episode.
Samezies dude!
i lowkey love this pseudo-podcast type of conversation! plus, seeing Damon in here is a blessing. bring in more.
this is the best video I’ve watched in a long time. It was so fun and interesting and I can identify with a lot of your views. Also, it’s so refreshing to watch a video where two people are just thoroughly enjoying each other’s company and conversation.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I would say it's a combination of the conversational style of videos from Damon paired with Nathaniel's style. It's thoughtful, entertaining and inviting. Also, I feel that there was a range of emotions that flowed with the conversation so both people moved from heavy focus, excitement, banter, philosophy... It was just great, okay!
I'm glad Damon defended video games, they're my favourite way to wind down with friends
damon over here collabing with all my favorite youtubers. i’m living for this shit
I am so glad that you two’s paths have crossed. I’ve loved both of your content for so long but I never would’ve thought this collab would work SO WELL.
This is a duo I never thought I needed, these types of conversations fuel my soooul!
The part about how doing what you want can be super inconvenient is so true. I listened to some Echart Tolle about this topic and he said that when you don’t change something cause it is super inconvenient, that’s the ego getting what it wants because it gets to stay with its old patterns. So whenever you make a positive change in your life you will experience more challenges for a while because the old ego is being killed. So just push through that hard part and in the end you’ll be where you really want to be
Love this! but imagine if Ashley was here too wooah
Love where your mind goes! And I truly appreciate this friendship with Damon! It’s great to see a conversation where both parties listen and are open to debating their points of views! Podcasts pls! Like what they said! 💯
thank you for this video! I'm in such a cross roads moment in my life, after uni, covid obviously makes it difficult to get my first job on this career path, it's forcing me to really think deep inside what I want to pursue and value... this was an inspiring conversation with beautiful energy!!
Never been this early for a 36 minute production 😱😱
Jörg Leiger haha ikr! 🤣🙈
So grateful to live in the Netherlands where so much has been taken care of. Don't realize it enough
I really love how you kept those last clips in at the ending, always fun to see
The effort , the editing , is just stunning and I felt like I was in that living room, such a cool experience, keep the hard work Nathaniel, you are going to be so recognized!
I love Damon - so happy to see him on your channel!!!
This video is so satisfying and laid back, and doesn't even reflect half of Nathaniel's content quality, which is what I want to comment on. I just want to let you know, Nathaniel, that I am a huge fan of yours. The cinematography of your videos, the content you offer, how passionate you seem but especially your mind are incredibly inspiring. I hope to see this comment and get reminded once again how you inspire others and that what you're doing is definitely worth it. I hope you keep evolving, creating content, and enjoying what you put out as much as I enjoy watching it. Cheers!
I loved this , i really really wanted to join you guys in this conversation , love when people embrace the things going around and i am yet to meet people like this to have this kinda conversation .
even though I’m not there with you guys or actually in the conversation it feels like I’m there! I love this, you guys are the type of friends I need. that everyone needs!
Absolutely loving this conversation. Thought inducing.
Never knew I needed a Damon and Nathaniel collab!
This was such a great video. I could feel myself itching to join the conversations the whole time because I swear all of the topics you covered have been taking up SO much space in my brain for the last 6+ months, and I found myself enthusiastically agreeing with or having questions or thoughts about everything you both discussed. I wanted to comment on the different topics but I feel like I'd end up writing a dissertation in the process, so instead I'll just say that I thoroughly enjoyed this and hope to see more videos like this in the future with other creators. I just happened to watch Ashley's (bestdressed) Paris vlog with Damon a few days ago, and it was my first intro to him and his channel, and I was so excited to see this one now, too! What an inspiring, kind, and personable group of creators you all are. Grateful to have found you in the last few months and looking forward to more of these!
Thanks both of you for this discussions! you are amazing
I'm gonna make this comment in Portuguese, so you can practice...
CARA. Simplesmente INCRÍVEL esse tipo de vídeo, você é tão inteligente e sempre sabe do que está falando. Muito obrigado por trazer conteúdo bom enquanto alguns nem tentam. Sempre te acompanho e gosto de assistir suas dicas pra vida e escutar seus conselhos para tomar decisões. Obrigado!!!
This is by far my favorite video of yours. The others are EXCELLENT, and this one is the cherry on the cake. You provoke so many thoughts in my head, and hearing your ideas boucing back and forth between you two was so inspiring. You manage to be down to earth yet far beyond our known Universe sometimes, what a true pleasure to have the chance to notice some of your mind wonderings. Thank you for putting this type of content out there, transpiring authenticity, spirituality, and touching on heavy topic with a beautiful lightness. Keep doing you. And enjoy Paris :) I recommend Charles Bradley's song "Why is it so hard" to contribute to the reflection on pride VS gratefulness about America. I'm French myself, lived in the US for a while, and sometimes struggling with this dichotomy. Merci d'exister devant nos yeux
I’m not even done with the video (cause the ads are loading xD) BUT ALREADY I CAN SAY THAT I WANT MORE OF THIS. I love podcasts and this video version of a discussion... I’m writing stuff down and challenging my own thoughts even more than on your regular videos! Thank you.
I was so In tune I didn’t want the vid to end!!!! Def enjoy your content 💡
I'm so in love with these 2.
I love passionate people and big brains.
This is me talking to myself while cooking, on my way to get a coffee, travelling by myself, going to the bathroom, watching this video hahaha I love this 2 ❤ please talk more hahahaha
Love this format so much ! Getting tiny bits of your brain on diverse subjects, it would be awesome if you do a meet up where people get in line, and have 5 minutes to ask your views about any given subject ! Definitively should do more conversations with Damon
I honestly am so happy I found this channel through Damon. I loved this discussion. It was very interesting and it felt so chill. It was like I was there
According to a yale course that i totally recommend "the science of well being", $70.000 per year is enough to be happy, if you make more than that your happiness score will not increase that much.
But where?
Nathaniel would be such a strange person to go on a date, suddenly asking you about Earth's survival percentage hahha
AWESOME VIDEO. I always feel like I have no one much to speak with about these sorts of things and this was music to my ears. WOO.
I could listen to you two all day long, so please do more of these!
*_That simulation part, really got me into wanting to have such conversation with someone_*
Omg 36 minutes AND a collab with Damon, this has to be a dream ❤️
Dream come true!
I need a 3-hour long 2nd part, this was so dope to watch !!
finally the one great thing the TH-cam algorithm has suggested to me, never heard of you before but I love Damon have been subscribed to him since the start and he never fails but I loved this video and gonna binge watch the rest of yours
