I always love hearing Agro read one of my stories. (This time mine was "The Lost King.") Here's to many more years of his narrations! For the Algorithm!
Well done. Best to you. Wish I could make myself write, plenty of ideas and potential, lots of lazy and apathy (and a lack of need). Best regards to those who do (I did in another role).
@@stacynonyabizz4241Thank you! It came about when I was watching LOTR and I wondered what it would be like for an immortal to be in a long term relationship with a mortal. What would it be like to watch your partner grow old and frail, knowing they one day fade from your life forever. Then I added in a dash of personal experience in the form of watching a loved one battle parkensins. It makes the story a bit hard for me to read, (I was a mess while writing it!) But it's also one of my favorites for the same reason!
One of my Corporals always seemed to have some kind of “saying” for just about any BS that came down the food chain. Our First Sergeant would always start of with Men’s you gotta be flexible, just before we got some shit news. The Corporal (out loud) would say so once again we are found, fu*ked and soon to be forgotten. Always try to look unimportant; they may be low on ammo. There’s no such thing as a Five minute fuse. Usually when we got a FNG, he would add that everything in the Army was built by the absolute lowest bidder. So who wants to take their word for it? No plan remains after first contact, Saint Murphy, Lady Luck, Karma, and the enemy always have a say……and then theres our chain of command. “If you find yourself in a fair fight, you, it means that our glorious leader(s) farked up the OP Plan. As usual….. 15 minutes prior to 15 minutes prior or you’re late.
Your alien acting troop, My God what a lucky discovery. Clearly they deserve all the fame and fortune. The best interpretive work I've ever seen. Good on you for giving them their big break here on earth. You are a true patron of the arts.
This comment should be rated higher! Because those aliens are fantastic dancers. Mr. Squirrel has such an eye for talent! They perfectly summarize the story...so beautiful.
Oh my indeed, that acting troop is indeed an absolute gem of a find! It’s a good thing they’re able to spread their interpretative dance numbers across the galaxy through this medium indeed!
"We stay out of that field" was sooo good. The idea that a magical, or otherworldly colony of creatures or plants would be kind for a blood sacrifice and honor borders, but act with sympathy is such a wonderful way of conveying that there is terror in the beauty, and vice-versa
You got me when you said you hired actors haha. I was wicked confused, like "how can you narrate and have actors too, what did you hire mimes?" But fish makes a lot of sense
"The Lost King," hurt my heart more than I was prepared for. I spent my teenage years caring for folks with these illnesses and I am currently watching my grandfather suffer from the same illness. I appreciate you're effort to make these narrations feel as human as possible.
I don give a feck what you put on the screen so long so long as the great Bard Agro tells me a story. You could put fishies, nematodes, ants, trees blowing in the wind anything! Your voices and storytelling is what makes this channel awesome.
I always feel honored when Agro decides to read one of my stories (Arctus2020 here). And it's an even greater honor that he included one of them in his 3rd anniversary special! Congratulations on reaching 3 years!! Your narration has always been amazing, and I hope you're able to keep doing this for many more! I wonder if switching formats every now and then would appease the algorithm from seeing your videos as "being too similar". Or, perhaps including a few bits of thematically related art (with the artist's permission/in public domain) might also make it "different" enough. These both require more effort and time, though :/
been thinking of swapping between a couple of things , but people liked the fish game i used to use. So i decided to start with that and take it from there
I am a big guy, a father, a firefighter and a soldier. Story #5, "the Mad King" has me blubbering and crying like an idiot while i am driving into work! Well done sir, and well done to the author.😂
Epic Special effects. Can't believe it isn't REAL. Even a few years now you're ahead of your time. And a note to your past self (cause frik time laws) the painting wasn't as exciting as the live show, but it was still loved.
I honestly can't say that I've been with you the whole time, but once I found your channel, I immediately subscribed and then proceeded to listen to your entire play history. I'm a long haul truck driver and your narrations have gotten me thru many many miles. Granted I primarily only listen, because, you know, safety. As for the painting of miniatures, absolutely go for it. I miss doing it myself. As for your skills, no one and I mean NO ONE starts off as a master. Experiment. Try new techniques often and do you. I'm here for a whole new year of stories and hopefully many more besides.
You introduced me to HFY last month and I’ve been bingeing all of your longer readings I’ve been loving every second of it my favorite so far is Because Someone Had To. Thank you for the wonderfully done narrations.
I am so fecking glad that I came across this gem a second time. The intro is absolute gold. So good in fact. You're getting the patreon. I've only listened to 1700 of your stories. You've earned it harder than any youtuber I've ever seen. Thank you.
The Lost King threw me a curveball. I was hoping that the king would be saved in some miraculous way. The mental degradation was actually painful to hear narrated.
Happy anniversary Agro, here's to many more returns. 4:36 No dude , you're as crazy as you thought. But now you have company. IDK about the rest, but no one ever mistook me for the poster of sanity.
Those who Chase is among the first HFY stories I ran into on you tube, your rendition of it is great, and sparks my interest in writing again after nearly 18 years of not picking up a pen. Hats off AG and the various authors, love your content and these stories, its a great sign when writing and the voice that brings that writing to life cause that little fire inside to light and flare brighter
I feel so happy when I find a new to me story from you! You're an excellent story teller and I love hearing your interpretation of each character. I have heard others narrating and I feel like something's missing when I hear them. It's your enthusiasm and clear intent to give them the effort required to make it work so well ❣️ Please keep going ❣️ I listen to you ALL DAY at my job selling Salmon for my Tribal Fisherie. We have to sell our own because the buyer is insulting and I have extensive Emphysema and COPD. I can't Fish alone anymore and I struggle with breathing just sitting so I sell for my Friend and his Family of 6. They're all relying on my efforts for their success. I sit in my trailer with a pop up canopy tent and my 2 good Pibbles laying by the heater waiting for a treat and scratch near a freeway on ramp on our Reservation in Tulalip Washington State. 😏 I can do all the setups and teardown while listening and I can easily pause it when I have a customer. Thank you eternal ❤️🖖🇺🇲
Greetings Agro and congrats on 3 years of TFOS! It's been a pleasure to be along the ride for nearly a year now and your narration of that good old sci-fi stuff has been brightening up my days like our sun going supernova ever since. Thank you for the great times and for more to come!
Story 3 brought tears to my eyes. Humans remembering to repay kindness even when kindness was many many years before. Dont mess with those we owe our kindness too for no fury or wrath can be matched for those we call friends or family. 💞
I have been loving the aquatic alien fish troop. Great explanation my man, I love your channel and I hope you stay around and keep your money or rather making it. I love your channel so much man. I've been here for about 28months or so since you had about 800-1200 subs.
I lost my great grandfather 2 winters ago to Parkinson’s induced Dementia. The lost king made me cry like I haven’t in some time thinking about him and my grandmother
I really love listening to the stories you tell. I don't watch, I get things done while I listen. My grandson listens to you as well. It was really funny when I sent him a link and it turned out he was already a fan.
Thank you for this enormous collection of stories. I look forward to next year, 4 hours for 4 years. I'd love to see you painting miniatures, start to completion over several videos
3rd anniversary!!! good on you brother! Think I've been listening for about a year or so....your gohram better at it than a fluffing AI. Keep it up ....and ...um I'll try to remember to hit the like button more
This is one of my favorite TH-cam channels. The way he narrates is so good that if I could afford it I would pay you to do this, good sir. Thank you for continuing on dispite the bs!
I love your channel. So sorry to hear of all the drama the Tube's vague rules are causing such a fine content creator such as yourself. There's something of a "Golden Goose" lesson for them to hopefully learn in all their interference with those who actually make their site more than a monopolistic default. I'm writing this comment after having listened to your wonderful voicing of the story "Good Neighbors Are Hard to Come By" - which choked me up with its ending. Love the narration.
Great wishes and congratulations !! You do awesome amazing and entertaining work. Not many channels have content that I share and enjoy with my young daughter. She is 10. Thank you so much for being something we can share and listen to , together. Best wishes and be well.
Congratulations Agro, I remember when you were talking about this in discord back then and I was a bit of a negative nancy about it. I am so glad it seems it worked out for you.
hehehee... I've been camping this vid for weeks, trying to keep up with general life, and determined to watch this all the way through. It made me giggle to witness you educating your cat on proper etiquette with the fishies. :D
How about showing a 3D Printer printing? You could print sci-fi and fantasy figurines! Also, you could sell the prints tied to the narration for additional revenue 😉
Listening to your narrative reminds me why bards and story tellers we're so important pre-mass entertainment. You could have had a relatively comfy life out of a wagon wondering from town to town telling stories at taverns.
I haven't gotten to that one yet, but it sounds like some one came down with a bad case of "fuck around" and didn't expect there to be any "find out" for them
I always love hearing Agro read one of my stories. (This time mine was "The Lost King.") Here's to many more years of his narrations! For the Algorithm!

I think my acting troupe had a bad diva, there was this beautiful blue one that harassed the others so badly one died so i had to single them out
"We stay out of that field" was sooo good. The idea that a magical, or otherworldly colony of creatures or plants would be kind for a blood sacrifice and honor borders, but act with sympathy is such a wonderful way of conveying that there is terror in the beauty, and vice-versa

I wasn't ready for that either. Going through it with my Mother right now. Great story
Right in the feels 😢
I was moved more than i care to admit
probably the best story he has ever told. Brought a tears to my eyes BRAVO to author. OUTSTANDING narration
@@killerpurplecow2165well said, mate. Well said

@@AgroSquerril I, too, am a fan of the fish, yes! 10/10 interpretative acting!!
@AgroSquerril love the description of fish acrobatics when you started using them 🤣
Especially if they are your fish
I am a big guy, a father, a firefighter and a soldier. Story #5, "the Mad King" has me blubbering and crying like an idiot while i am driving into work! Well done sir, and well done to the author.😂
"Those Who Run" - chills at the inevitability. Excellent reading!
Dude.....the "acting fish" line has officially made me a lifetime fan
As someone who both builds aquariums, and paints minis I fully endorse the new channel direction
Epic Special effects. Can't believe it isn't REAL. Even a few years now you're ahead of your time. And a note to your past self (cause frik time laws) the painting wasn't as exciting as the live show, but it was still loved.

Life on the road. Might I suggest james axler's deathlands, and the dark samnium. Both have kept me company for many miles.
Drive safe.

Glad you are enjoying
Story 5 with the mad king made me tear up so much. Amazing stories.
Dude the acting skills are insane these fish bouta get a Oscar
3 years of amazing Narration! For the Algorithm! For the Squirrel! FOR HUMANITY!
So many emotions through so many stories, it even managed to hit dejavu on the chase.
Aliens: WHY ARE YOU TRANSPORTING A PLANET KILLING BIO-WEAPON THROUGH MY GOD DAMN VOID SPACE?!?
Humans: our diet makes our tummies hurt😢😥
The lost king brought tears to my eyes. Hail to the king 👑
I am so fecking glad that I came across this gem a second time. The intro is absolute gold. So good in fact. You're getting the patreon. I've only listened to 1700 of your stories. You've earned it harder than any youtuber I've ever seen. Thank you.
Man still can't believe you only had about 500 subs when I found you. Congrats man here's to bigger and brighter things
The Lost King Was possibly his best Narration OUTSTANDING
I've listened to this 3 year collection several times now and the onion ninjas hit hard on that one every single time.
Been a great 3 years listening to you tell these wonderful stories!
The Lost King threw me a curveball. I was hoping that the king would be saved in some miraculous way. The mental degradation was actually painful to hear narrated.
Keep on rocking my Dude..! I hope the best for you, and yours. I love what you do.👍🏼😎👍🏼
Happy anniversary Agro, here's to many more returns.
4:36 No dude , you're as crazy as you thought. But now you have company. IDK about the rest, but no one ever mistook me for the poster of sanity.
Love ya narrator! Oratory ability like yours is hard to find in any format. Thank the algorithm you do HFY!!!
Congrats Agro! May you have a long prosperous channel been here since 2019 and I very much like your covers of HFY, Thank you.
Thank you and its a pleasure
I actually love how you have the this video setup because I have the time to read this while listening and I love to just great it's perfect thank you

Thank you for the great times and for more to come!
A pleasure , glad you are enjoying the content
Thalia and the Mad King. A love story so much more powerful than the loss. Brought me to tears for a love that endured.
such an amazing narrator, i can not believe i have been listening for 3 years
Ey bruv keep up the good work, love the crazy human sci-fi, where everything is a weapon, even the floors

I love the Agro's malevolent growl in the story Those Who Run when humanity continues the ritual of Karal
Oh wow! Number five story got me good. I'm crying so hard right now. Thank you for reading these.
a pleasure
Im crying now😢 the mad king just touched my heart. Wonderful and simple story that touched my heart. Truly a great peice of writing thank you.
Ye gods, the last king. I cried for a good 20 minutes. This was the most beautiful love story I have ever encountered.
The troup acting out the stories is very talented, that fellow with the gold on is a real dynamo! Bravo
For the almighty algorithm and may you be able to survive for at least 3 more years.
So that is the origin of the background fish :D
I love your voice and those fishes
Thank you , glad you enjoy the content and thank you for the dono, its very much appreciated.
@@AgroSquerril sorry if it is literally cents in USA currency xd. I am a student
@@donbenjamin6459 No worries , look after you before worrying about me. Any and all dono's are appreciated and in no my expected or mandatory :)
Those who Run remains one of my favorites out of the stories you've narrated. Thank you for your channel!
Congrats! Keep on Keeping On. Your content is very much appreciated.
Your voice always adds an edge to these stories. I loved the atmosphere you added to Those Who Run
The way Agro does many voices makes the stories come to life...
I lost my great grandfather 2 winters ago to Parkinson’s induced Dementia. The lost king made me cry like I haven’t in some time thinking about him and my grandmother
You help me keep the madness at bay, and help me to forget the constant pain. Thank you for existing.
The lost king brought back way too many memories.
I really love listening to the stories you tell. I don't watch, I get things done while I listen. My grandson listens to you as well. It was really funny when I sent him a link and it turned out he was already a fan.
I love listening to him talking at the start! 😂
Keep putting out that dose of first contact Mr Squerril. Love ya work.
The length of the video threw me for a loop. I was not expecting a video to last me a third of my shift. Many thanks
Also, yay for the fishies!
glad you enjoyed
Thank you for this enormous collection of stories. I look forward to next year, 4 hours for 4 years. I'd love to see you painting miniatures, start to completion over several videos
The mad crazy king about had me crying hard. Had to stop the wood carving I was working on dang. Very sweetly written
3rd anniversary!!! good on you brother! Think I've been listening for about a year or so....your gohram better at it than a fluffing AI. Keep it up ....and ...um I'll try to remember to hit the like button more
Thank you! For the wonderful narration, finding wonderful stories and having the time to read them to us!
Just found this genre and I am all in. Thank you for what you do!
Happy 3 years Agro!
Awww Agro being warm and fuzzy 🥰 Thanks for making the content especially with what this year has hit you with
Congrats! Thanks for youre awesome work over the years, you saved so many hours, days :3
Damn I can't believe it's been like 2.5 years since I've started listening to the amazing narrations. Ps I love the new actors lol
“The lost king” now that was a story worth telling
Gods it's been 3 years already? Felt it less than that.
May the Algorithm bless you many more.
thank you

Thank you so much for being something we can share and listen to , together. Best wishes and be well.
Congratulations, you have improved your craft a lot, and I enjoy your work a lot.
Thank you , try to improve everyday
Bloody brilliant! Every story. Thank you.
Congrats! I'm afraid I joined in during the 500 ups. But I've tried to watch all the older ones.
Stay STRONG ( WITH ENERGY) Argo !!!! For many of us ( out there is Y.T. Land ) , your narration is a Brite point in our dreary daily routine.
Congratulations Agro, I remember when you were talking about this in discord back then and I was a bit of a negative nancy about it. I am so glad it seems it worked out for you.
I literally watch every video. Keep it up, FTA!
The Lost King is an example of why an extremely long lifespan, or immortality, is often a curse rather than a gift.
"When life gives you lemons throw handgrenades back" keep it up love your readings.
❤ I just started listening to you not long ago, but I love every minute of the time I ve spent with you.❤
T.F.O.S - HFY! .
All hail the fishy ones!
We laugh and cry and feel their scaly mastery.
Your narration is priceless.
Glad you enjoy
hehehee... I've been camping this vid for weeks, trying to keep up with general life, and determined to watch this all the way through.
It made me giggle to witness you educating your cat on proper etiquette with the fishies. :D
Fish based fiction is the future, and I couldn't be happier.
:)
We love hearing your stories.
I enjoy this channel. Have listen to several already. Thanks for sharing!
The god damn yakult had me in stitches yes quite the deadly bio weapon
I don't understand the punchline. Could you please explain what yakult is?
How about showing a 3D Printer printing? You could print sci-fi and fantasy figurines! Also, you could sell the prints tied to the narration for additional revenue 😉
Keep the good work man!! I love to heard your histories when i come back from work. Salutations from the south of humanity
Listening to your narrative reminds me why bards and story tellers we're so important pre-mass entertainment.
You could have had a relatively comfy life out of a wagon wondering from town to town telling stories at taverns.
the vocal styling is what we listen to, well done on all.
Final story: "You started this fight. It's over when *we* say it's over."
I haven't gotten to that one yet, but it sounds like some one came down with a bad case of "fuck around" and didn't expect there to be any "find out" for them
Love your videos and watched so many, and it feels like there is so much more! This is great
Happy birthday!
I look forward to next years 4hr delve into greatness! ;o)
And WE who are able to listen to you narrate say, Thank You sir. You have gotten me to enjoy a new (to me) platform for reading.
I love your narration you are awesome. To many more years and thank you.
I hope you get to keep going. I wish I could afford to support. Your stories keep me going at work all night stocking shelves.
I love the delivery on the last line of the last story.
I love this channel, if I had a million bucks I'd cut you a healthy check.
