8:08 That is actually the standard placement for mics on Broadway! It's the least noticeable place because it can fit under a wig or in someone's hairline, and it also picks up the voice much better than if it went around the cheek.
Aww, thanks for the heart, guys! I'm actually an actor and voice-over artist in NYC, if you guys would ever want to collaborate feel free to reach out!
And Hamilton is the only one with 2 mics, because he is on stage so much there wouldn't be enough time to switch it out if one failed during the show. That's why they are more noticable. (Burr also has 2 mics, but his are different anyway)
the way eliza actually DID live for fifty years after alexander died (alex died in 1804 and eliza died in 1854) she was 97 when she passed which was super old considering the average age of death during that time
I love watching different channels react to the same thing Cause like sometimes it’ll be like “The symbolism of the girl who plays the bullet is so good because...” And then you have channels like this where it’s pretty much just “S O N”
That's honestly why this is my favourite Hamilton commentary though, because Jack and Robby are able to make intelligent commentary on several aspects of the musical, particularly character depth, while integrating it with jokes about cannibalism, Peggy being a Tory, Venom appreciating female empowerment and of course, "mY sOn"
George Washington: Okay class, your team projects are due soon. Be ready to present your 25 essays. John Jay: ow oof sorry team, only got 5. James Madison: It's okay. I didn't trust either of you, so I went above and beyond so that we'd have enough. I wrote 29. Alexander Hamilton: :) JM: What're you smiling about? Aaron Burr: _looks over AH's shoulder_ What the FUCK, how many essays is that?! AH: *:)*
Sad fact: Burr didn't mean to shoot Hamilton in between the ribs, he wanted to shoot him in the arm (that wouldn't have killed him) but 'hes a terrible shot' and thats why it didn't strike his arm.
This is basically me everytime I rewatch it 😂 Some theatre trivia about the thing you pointed out about Lin's mic: It is pretty common that actors on Broadway have their mics pulled through their hair since it is less visible and more practical (you don't hear their breathing as much and if you tape it to the cheek, it might come off because of the jaw movement while talking). Pretty much everyone on the show has their mics on their foreheads, except for Chris Jackson and Leslie Odom Jr, since there is no possibility to hide the mic in hair. Just thought that might be interesting^^
37:37 Sure! An optometrist's website wrote an article about it, claiming that when he called a pause in the duel, Hamilton declared "In certain states of the light one requires glasses.", pulled out his glasses, and put them on.
15:32 Uh, that's not a theory, THAT'S A FACT. Historians have actually found flirts in letters and actual love letters being sent to John Laurence who was fighting British forces in South Carolina in the Revolutionary War. Like, it's a FACT that Hamilton was bisexual
At 9:50: Alex actually did let Eliza know about all of his baggage before they were married. All of his letters to her before they were married made sure she was prepared to be married to a poor guy with OCD. The line "Do you relish being a poor man's wife" is from one of those letters. At 11:37: When you say "It's a dude," you're actually not that far off. Aaron Burr flirted with Alexander's college roomate, Robert Troup, and they lived together for a while after the war. Robert even specified in his letters that he wanted to live with Aaron without any women around to come between them. Also, Alex would be the most supportive of Burr and Troup's relationship. John Laurens was practically his husband, except that it wasn't lawful and John's father was particularly hostile to gay relationships.
My favorite thing about this musical is that when Lin shows up at the end, he's not showing up as Hamilton again. He's playing himself. He wrote his way into the musical, that end bit is him showing Eliza that her work didn't go to waste.
PEGGY DESERVES MORE CREDIT BECAUSE SHES A FUCKING ICON AND I LOVE HER. In 1781, Albany was not much safer than the warfront: Local Native American tribes and British loyalists had been running raids all over the area. Philip Schuyler, who was the mastermind of a spy ring, was even the subject of a British kidnapping plot. A group of Tories and Native Americans surrounded and forced their way into the home. The family, including Philip Schuyler, hid in an upstairs bedroom when they realised that Catherine Schuyler's (Philip's wife) infant daughter was still in her wicker basket by the door. So who volunteered to sneak through the house of armed men and get the baby? Who got grabbed on her way back up, led to their leader who shoved a gun in her face and demanded to know where her father was? Peggy! When they demanded to know where her father was she replied with something along the lines of "He's gone to alert the town" which scared them so much they left. She had her baby sister in her arms, her pregnant sister and mother upstairs, a gun to her face and she still managed to stay calm enough to save her family. And that's not mentioning the part where someone threw a fucking axe at her head and she laughed and kept walking!
Honestly, this is my number 1 video to help me sleep, and I don't know why! Like...it's so loud and chaotic and funny, why does it fucking lull me to sleep?
I thought I was going to hate this reaction because it's obvious you guys have seen it a million times and were going to try to do a comedy talk-over-it thing. Pleasantly surprised and got quite a few laughs!
Cool touch, Washington and Hamilton wore glasses when they were alive in the play, and after they died, they didnt wear their glasses for the rest of the play.
I remember once me and my sisters and my mom watched this together and my sister was pissed because I was singing too loud (cause I’m a theatre nerd and I fucking love Hamilton) So we turned the volume up to 100 You could hear me singing over the fucking tv Also we sung for everything except “Say No To This” so that was fun
Can you guys please film your first time reaction to the Hamilton demo of “this one’s mine” which is a song Lin’s wife made him pull because it was so terrible if you haven’t already seen it?😂😂
24:37 - I find this interesting, because in England (where I live) tories/conservatives are almost ALWAYS depicted by the colour blue. The opposing Labour party is the one we associate with red.
I've been watching your stuff throughout and all of it is hilarious :o) You guys ever thought about doing a commentary to Nothing but Trouble? it's written by ghostbusters boy Dan Aykroyd and...its something
27:12 Nah thats not the Charles Lee from the duel. That is Attorney General Charles Lee, a completely unrelated guy who has the exact same name. However this Charles Lee is actually on good terms with Washington. No Joke: th-cam.com/video/9pwoaLZv8PI/w-d-xo.html
Actually early settlers like the Jamestown people were cannibals in real life. Archeologists found a woman’s scull with nife cut marks on it in a garbage pit, where Jamestown was found to be.
@@Enforcedstorm4 yep, I just found out about it right before watching this video so when they were talking about venom being in Hamilton, I was thinking "oh, I know where you could find something a little bit like that", then I typed it here.

When G Wash came on and y'all screamed "DADDY" that was my breaking point
ABDGAYEBASHAHSJAJ
the way you gave him a freakin rapper name...
Glad someone else agrees Madison has a good, rich voice. I wish he'd gotten like a showstopper type song to sing.
God imagine him singing something similar to 'Room where it happens'
Dudes, Burr DOES spoil that Laurens dies though. "Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead." *Laurens pipes up with his yoyoyo* "Like I said...."
Very true
Didn't technically Laurens do that himself in the first song
@@ElmosWorld54368 I think the "Me? I died for him" is meant for Philip; he died while wanting to protect Hamilton's honor...
@@thelocalwitch5731 All of those intro lines are meant for both characters the actors are playing.
@@PlagueDragonRat How did Jeffreson and Madison fought with Hamilton and how did Peggy loved Hamilton? It's a real question; I really want to know!
THEM YELLING “SONS” WAS MY BREAKING POINT I LITERALLY CRIED FROM LAUGHING DO HARD
alexander really just wanted to do the 100 baby challenge but only sons
10:16 "alright, alright thAT'S WHAT IM TALKING A B O U T"
it was SO spot on, I had to rewind it like 10 times at least lmaooo
*takes a bow*
the way eliza actually DID live for fifty years after alexander died (alex died in 1804 and eliza died in 1854) she was 97 when she passed which was super old considering the average age of death during that time
Y'all sound just like the theater kids I know. This is like religious text for them. 💀
Ikr lol 😂
Yes I can confirm I do worship this
Because it is
I love watching different channels react to the same thing
Cause like sometimes it’ll be like “The symbolism of the girl who plays the bullet is so good because...”
And then you have channels like this where it’s pretty much just
“S O N”

Alexander Hamilton: :)
JM: What're you smiling about?
Aaron Burr: _looks over AH's shoulder_ What the FUCK, how many essays is that?!
AH: *:)*
i know your sins. homestuck.
"Philip you outshine the morning sun"
*MY SON! ONE MORE TIME, SON!*
Please I can't! XDD
You look like my
S O N
I actually chocked on a icecube
"What does Georgia say?!"
"GEORGIA!!"
This had me rolling the whole time... 😂😂😂
Sad fact: Burr didn't mean to shoot Hamilton in between the ribs, he wanted to shoot him in the arm (that wouldn't have killed him) but 'hes a terrible shot' and thats why it didn't strike his arm.
This channel is the gift that keeps on giving

"She's in red she's a tory!!!" uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Why does their Laurens impression sound like sonic on drugs?
Alternative Title: 2 Men simps for the Hamilton Musical
this is like watching hamilton with friends, u guys are so
funny, glad to have found this channel
37:37 Sure! An optometrist's website wrote an article about it, claiming that when he called a pause in the duel, Hamilton declared "In certain states of the light one requires glasses.", pulled out his glasses, and put them on.
I watch one video by accident and I found this gem of a channel
Lol me too
30:18 King George is so displeased that he deletes his servant from existence with a wave of his hand.
Im trying to do my makeup to this and every time they do the son bit I absolutely lose my mind
Yay! Most commentary channels seem to be waiting forever to do this one so I’m glad you guys have done it now!!
I just realized Laurens does indeed die during the Revolution, and he never kept his mouth shut... Damn it Burr! Stop spoiling the play!
This commentary might be the first time I've ever seen a Live TH-cam Poop
Also yeah Non-Stop is fantastic
my inner theatre kid is living for this
Ive been trying to watch this with a straight face and I couldn’t stop laughing at your commentary😂
ME TO LAMO 😆

I read somewhere that Lafayette was also a little fruity in letters to Hamilton.
30:21 SHE JUST DISAPPEARED HAHAHA
Dude i fucking LOST IT at "Angelica tried to take a bite of me" dear god
Truly immaculate karaoke version!

bro y'all got me crying laughing i can't. this is the best thing i've ever seen
This has been the best 40 minutes of my life.
i'm not throwing away my SON
Waiting (somewhat) patiently for the In The Heights Commentary. Honestly though, one of my favorites and I cant wait for the NOC take

Give me the opportunity to sing all of Burr’s parts in Non Stop, I may just end up taking it
Every time they say “eLIZuh” has me in tears
I remember once me and my sisters and my mom watched this together and my sister was pissed because I was singing too loud (cause I’m a theatre nerd and I fucking love Hamilton)
So we turned the volume up to 100
You could hear me singing over the fucking tv

Oh my god thank you for posting this I couldn’t stop laughing everytime you said “son”
YES NON STOP IS SO GOODDDD
I really hope we get that venom Hamilton adaptation, sounds beautiful
4:10 Peggy's like, "Oooh! He's cute!" to Laurens.
I wish I found this channel sooner. The commentary videos just kill me and I always have a good laugh xD
Little fun fact about King George, his actor also played Christoph in the Frozen movies.
I've come back to this after watching the venom commentary and I need y'all to do the venom covers 😂
100,000 likes and we'll DO IT
This is the funniest Hamilton commentary I've ever watched I laughed my ass off the entire time 😂👌
24:37 - I find this interesting, because in England (where I live) tories/conservatives are almost ALWAYS depicted by the colour blue. The opposing Labour party is the one we associate with red.
Rewatching this again and am just now realizing yall missed the opportunity of, "I am not throwing away my sons!"
Whats funny is your venom seems to be the venom personality in the next film
Robby and I both noticed this and deeply regretted not reacting to the trailer lmao
35:57 screaming goat noises intensify
y’all’re a blessing and 1000% relatable
Excellent rap to start off 😂😂😂😂😂
HELP I had Discord open in another tab without realizing it and got a notification sound right at 18:10
I love the sons joke 😂
Oh my God you guys are hilarious. I almost choked to death on my water watching this
This channel is criminal underrated
I just found this channel on the pirates video and I LOVE IT also rip peggy she died of the common cold
Why did Hamilton go to Tatooine?
Cuz it has two sons.
this is actually one of the funniest things ive seen
i just found ur channel and im glad i did. I will want to binge all your vids tonight but i have work in the morning so until then
Its currently 4am and I'm trying not to die of laughter
And Peggy
I've been watching your stuff throughout and all of it is hilarious :o)
You guys ever thought about doing a commentary to Nothing but Trouble? it's written by ghostbusters boy Dan Aykroyd and...its something
27:12
Nah thats not the Charles Lee from the duel. That is Attorney General Charles Lee, a completely unrelated guy who has the exact same name. However this Charles Lee is actually on good terms with Washington.
No Joke: th-cam.com/video/9pwoaLZv8PI/w-d-xo.html
Please do more musicals this was amazing
I wish you'd do a full venom cover
King George would not pirate media. As he is a government official, any pirating done under his name would technically be corsairing.
Now on whenever I think of Venom, I think of him saying “I know you are a man of honor”
Can you guys do a commentary and reaction on “NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM”
PLEASE I need all three
Actually early settlers like the Jamestown people were cannibals in real life. Archeologists found a woman’s scull with nife cut marks on it in a garbage pit, where Jamestown was found to be.
Do they know that robot chicken did a scene where venom did watch Hamilton?
WHAT? THIS IS A THING??
@@Enforcedstorm4 yep, I just found out about it right before watching this video so when they were talking about venom being in Hamilton, I was thinking "oh, I know where you could find something a little bit like that", then I typed it here.
I am not a fan of Hamilton, but I have to say, King George's songs are incredible.
Only 998.955 more likes until the Venom cover!
A 100000 lakes and they can sing Hamilton with venom, I need this
Guys we need more likes on this video so Jack and Robby come back…❤️
not me back watching this for the third time
Here before y'all blow up.
We’re watching this in school rn!!!🤣
You guys had me at the cat in the hat movie review
The Laurens appreciation in this is everything lol
Ya'll should definitely check out another scif fi fantasy Australian show, Parallax
I have to protect MY LECACY
#myson

Edit: eLIZA

I'm like you guys but it's when I watch the greatest showmen
Were you both the theater kids in school 😅
No but we were friends with a ton of em
In the heights 🙌
