God I love your interviews, first 7 minutes in and you've asked Casey a question getting him to talk about something in a way he's never spoken about it before. Jon you're a master of your craft.
Him not publishing the documentary on David Dobrick is an extrapolation of his stance on Israel. It's his love for Dobrick/Israel that he doesn't want to hold them truly accountable for the injustice done via their actions. In both scenario's he expresses that he values both sides "equally", but by doing so, it only empowers the party that is in the more powerful position. It doesn't help the suppressed party. Wether these are the victims of David Dobrick's actions, or the Palestinians that are being de-humanised by the state of Israel.
That's an interesting point, but I think it's also just the classic centrist worldview. You only learn enough about an issue to get to that sweet spot of the Dunning-Kruger effect where you have peak confidence in your worldview, even though it remains pretty uninformed and largely incoherent if you scratch beneath the surface. But it feels good to think you know better than everyone else, so you dismiss people as too extreme when you don't have any substantive counterarguments to their points, all the while telling everyone you're willing to listen to both sides.
Hold Israel accountable for .. getting invaded by terrorist? He is a New Yorker, a Jew, and he was in NY on 9/11. There absolutely zero chance Casey would not sympathize with the people of Israel and the way Jews have been targeted since. As he was explaining, America's foreign policy does not mean it is open season against Americans. It is the same with Israelis and all peoples. Also, you do not hold a country 'accountable' by saying it should stop existing.
@@4x4r974 for gross human rights violations. but fine. I am a new yorker. I am a jew, and I experienced a awful terrorist attack in new york a few years ago from less that 100 feet away. I sympathize with victims of hamas' awful assault. most if not all pro-palestine people do, but to acknowledge that terrorism and not acknowledge the ongoing genocide and before that, the violent settler colonialism that israel has been perpetrating for decades? it takes a lot of hoops to jump through to have that world view, like what @JeffreyArts seems to be articulating.
"I've never been one to hold my tongue..." after a whole segment about burying a docu that includes sexual assault (and more) because he loves the kid. Men sticking up for men no matter how despicable, so cowardly. Amoral much Casey.
@@ticklemeelmo73 So, bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry And them good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', "This'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die"
I think Casey meant he's worried about the guy taking his own life if he releases the documentary. Even if he's a terrible human being, that's not something you want to trigger.
1:11:00 Not gonna lie. This is the part that struck me the most. This idea of him not planning, but discovering the Video is what instantly filled me with a burning desire and inspiration to make videos. It's so simple and profound. Just sheer doing the thing for the sake of doing it...
I love how you put effort to put information about some person you were talking about, or you include some of video you talk about. It is really helpful and make me more engaged. Really appreciate that! And that is quite unique among another podcasts! Great job ❤
I’m so disappointed in Casey for not letting the documentary speak for itself…thought he had more loyalty to the work and the victim who trusted him with her story. Not showing David in his own words is simply enabling a grown man who clearly needs to learn
there are some true golden moment in this interview. ive been watching casey for almost 10 year. thank you for being so present throught this video. and forcing him to cringe over his own work. i wish you success, and balance in all you set out to achieve. looking forward to more from you.
Casey got a spin of a wet spaghetti noodle. Post the documentary, Justice for jeff and all the victims is more important than your “friendship” with david
That last part was despicable (I’m also “never one to hold my tongue” so I’m not doing that here). I was hoping Casey would have changed by now, to understand nuance. He claims to be to be the nuance guy, but clearly isn’t capable, and, from my viewpoint, has never truly presented as such. Very sad.
given that he's Jewish his opinion totally makes sense and is valid. At the end of the day Isreali people and Palistinians are not bad people but they have people in charge making bad decisions. I think it is very acceptable and far from despicable to say that you care for both sides but to add nuance too.
Loving the concept of a place doesn't excuse genocide. Sure, be outspoken, but educate yourself beforehand. "I don't know much about Israeli politics" then don't have an opinion?
"Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." - Calvin Coolidge
But we can all agree that Casey is the one that made the vlog more cinematic than it was before him it was just like documenting your day-to-day life and with him. Casey introduced storytelling Drone footage time lapse stuff that you would normally see in a movie different transitions different angles that is why people watched it and it wasn't like Charles Trippy the Shaytards these video creators that were just holding a camera in front of their face saying hey I'm going to go eat McDonald's and then the next clip would be him at McDonald's eating Casey took it a step further. And made the vlogs super cinematic
The problem with Casey and Israel is the fact that he showed support for IDF (by supporting Eylon Levy in his Instagram on March 2024), not just the Jewish cause. IDF is politics. So no point in saying in the video that you do not understand Israel politics and then supporting its major policy enforcer. The problem with Gaza now is not anti-semitism. What Israel been doing for decades is ethnic cleansing, invading territory and disrupting Palestianian chances of creating a viable state by supporting radical extremism (it is well documented Israel's involvement in the creation of Hamas). So by waving his little flag by the window, what he is actually doing is supporting a right-wing government, with two radical ministers (Yoav Galant and Bezalel Smotrich) that want to cleanse the Palestinian people and exert territorial dominion in the area, with the support of the US and British forces. For someone with such reach, Casey needs to study a bit more.
The IDF if responsible for for protecting almost 10 million Israeli citizens which also includes 2+ million Arab Israeli citizens... He didnt even mention the IDF in this video get a grip.
The Israel funded Hamas talking point is so dumb. They gave funds to Hamas before it was a militarized group in hopes of replacing the PLO who didn't look like they had any plans of coming to peace. Saying Hamas is the radical extremist group that pushed Palestinians over even though they had been occupied for half a century already is stupid, Israel funding Hamas didn't really change much.
Happy to hear what Casey has been up to, i haven't seen his content in well over a year. It just rubs me the wrong way the fact that Casey isn't sure about sharing the documentary when, in one way or another, the victim had to re-live the experience by talking to him, watching the film and having whatever involvement she had in it (idk the extent) just because he "still deeply loves and cares about David" is crazy. He said it himself, they trusted him to share their story and it ended up in a dark corner of Casey's storage device... i really hope he decides to share it, because David's behavior is unacceptable and he needs to be held accountable, even more so after what happened to Jeff....
@@ThatsBadTV i'd think Casey is smart enough to have him sign any release/legal docs to avoid getting sued, i also don't see how a defamation lawsuit would be possible, the guy agreed to have the documentary premiere at sxsw... if he wanted to sue him, he would have done it by now...
1:44:04 The march was pro-Palestinian, not anti-Israeli.The State of Palestine no longer exists because it did not have the right to defend itself.the interview was great, love it
Funny how Casey is trying to appear/act rational yet spews out fake out stuff like anti-israel rally. It's this exact ear-covering angry-shouting stuff that he's complaining about that he's doing himself with calling them "them" and hiding behind his flag in his expensive studio. He doesn't have any interest in actually listening. How can he be proud to be so ignorant, doesn't "even know" what Bibi is up to and the millions he's displaced / killed / ruined lives / futures etc. This interview fell flat on its face w/letting Casey just steamroll over w/his BS. It's this blind following/support of heritage that continues these stupid hate wars forever. He can be critical of the leaders of israel and still support the country. If he thinks not then - I don't want that nationalistic support/thinking anywhere near me.
@@TheOnlyAtalyajust look before the 1948 to 100ad everyone called it palestine even Jews. It was Palestine for almost 2000 years. Judea Samaria was never existed they were puppet states , they had no sovereignity.
Framing protesting the killing of the Palestinian civilians as "anti-semitism" is one of the cheapest and most disingenuous things one can say. Then he says that he doesn't know anything about Israeli politics or Netanyahu. Israeli government went much further than protecting the Israel's right to exist. Neistat obviously has a problem with Palestine's right to exist. Hypocritical doesn't even begin to describe it.
Most protests perpetuate the same messages that Hamas tells, which is to free Palestine by taking Israel, which in the Hamas charter very literally says in writing to massacre all jews around the world. If you are Jewish and listen to this often, how would you feel? If you believe what you say, then you should tell Hamas to release the hostages (including American citizens btw) and end the war they started. And to stop hiding guns, bombs, and their military bases in civilian homes, hospitals, and schools. Also, tell them to stop killing people for being gay and stealing Palestinian aid. If you truly understood anything about the Israeli army instead of watching propaganda from TikTok, you would strongly change your stance. I write you, similarly to Casey, as a Jewish man trying to have a real conversation about the conflict. I strongly agree and understand what Casey is saying. And, I urge you to reconsider your stance here.
@@ge2719 "Right to exist" is not encumberment of your government. People's lives matter. But unless you're a Jew, you believe of everyone else as subhuman, with no right to exist. We see that very clearly with what Palestinians are going through
It’s tough to see Casey being so clearly capable of understanding nuance and context - up until the conversation of Palestine in which he limits his ability to do that - which is captured in the moment where he says “I don’t understand Israeli politics…we’ve had really bad presidents too”. Although he believes in the self determination of Palestinians (which is great). He simultaneously disregards the conversation that is at the core of the issue for folks that are pro-palestine. I hope he sees that part of the conversation through eventually.
What is at the core of the issue for people who are pro-Palestine is their belief that Israel should stop existing. And Casey is absolutely right to not entertain this at all.
@@youshaei Went a bit tits up at the end there. How did you make the decision to frame that last bit, in the way that you did? Feel you had any obligation to retort or press harder? You seemed to be fine with heaping praise, would it have been appropriate to be critical also or was this a brand deal type of video?

He taunted a protest against genocide by waving the flag of the country that’s committing the genocide… wow that was an evil moment for my favorite TH-camr 🤦♂️.
I found Casey and Candice interesting. Tho, like everything with Casey Neistat, when he turns into a little bro-bitch, he goes hard. Referring to Pro Palestine marches as "antisemitic" is extremely telling. That lack of self awareness and of empathy, combined with a sense of entitlement, goes hand in hand with the way he's handled the documentary. The full throated declaration of "not one to hold my tongue" falls a little short when you give a rape victim a voice, then lock it away. Israel's greatest enemy is the information age. "The right" for an apartheid state "to exist" is crazy. Great interview. Well done. ✌
He's backing David now too. Crazy. Not holding David accountable. Crazy. Having an SA survivor tell her story to you only to market it, make money and then can it.
It's because he's Jewish, they always stick together and defend each other just like Harvey Weinstein and all the other Jewish people called out during the metoo movement.
@samuelrokk He's been advertising this documentary forever. Now he comes on the interview and decides "I'm not gonna show it" and "David is a great guy who handled every situation poorly". The SA wasn't caused by David but it happened because of his direct negligence in an environment he created in the process of creating content for him. Jeff wittek was directly injured by David who sped up that crane, then he left that dude high and dry, because no one held him accountable. Jeff decided to sue because of the things David said in the rough cut of the documentary. David did handle things poorly but that dude in no way is a good guy. He's just another rich dude getting away without consequences because people around him protect him more than his own actions.
What’s keeping that victim from giving a different person her story? What’s stopping her from posting it on her own socials? Or telling the cops or suing? Ridiculous. Whatever is required for legal reasons can easily be subpoenaed but releasing it knowing that it’s just a bunch of stupid children waiting for “tea” would be irresponsible. He’s a grown man that recognises mob thinking and refuses to feed it. Good for him
I would love to see a series from Casey where he critiques his own videos in this kind of format. It's so interesting to see the creator find flaws in something that us as the audience consider perfectly imperfect.
I've always been a huge fan of Casey, until today. I used to be the kind of filmmaker who would think, "What would Casey do?". But in this interview, it was like I was sitting there myself talking to him. And I thought it was amazing that in one moment he's talking about loving a guy who acts like a 16-year-old even though he's almost 30, who protected abusers, who refuses to pay for surgery and medical treatment for someone who almost died in an accident, a guy who would do absolutely EVERYTHING with a smile on his face for the sake of content and views, a guy who seems unscrupulous, and he talks about DEEP LOVE and the will to protect him. But 10 seconds later, when people protest against a genocide, a protest that was clearly IN FAVOR OF A COUNTRY, not necessarily against another, but against monstrous attitudes that are happening, he stands up, runs and confronts the protesters and says that that protest was anti-Israel (???). Maybe his love for Dobrick is due to the fact that there was a connection, maybe he looks at him like looking into a mirror, after all, he practically sacrificed years of his marriage and being present for his own children in favor of creating content as well. Thank you Jon Youshaei, this is real journalism, this is real content, you did an amazing job!
Oh yeah so the pro Palestinian protests are not against Jews, ok, explain Amsterdam RIGHT NOW. Hundreds of Jews being slaughtered in a soccer match by pro-Palestinian terrorists just because they’re Jews. Stop the virtue signaling and stop the propaganda. Explain Amsterdam. Why do you keep murdering innocent Jewish people in every single pro Palestinian protest?
casey says he started the vlog to show off his app Beam. But when i started watching Casey i didnt even know he had a App, not until years later he ever talked about ti. so a lot of his timelines dont add up. FYI this interview was crazy good. i felt like i was sitting there with you guys. The view and prospective of shots of casey were a perfect distance and frame. this a real masterpiece of recorded interviews.
i think he just didn't want his youtube videos to be him constantly talking about his app. he wanted it to be separate, especially when even though you're a fan of him, some people dont like him or have negative impressions of him, so its better for his separate business if its not attached to his other brand image especially if he's planning on building it up to sell it eventually, if a company relies too much on a person to be the brand then its much harder to sell it because the company buying it can't own him. he likely won't come as part of the deal for anymore than a few years. and so losing the person who is the brand image can destroy companies when customers only bought into it because of who made it.
I guess with that busy person on daily basis and so many things happened at that time, the timeline is broken a bit for him subjectively. We, who followed at that moment, know kinda better. The Beme idea came a lot later after he started daily vlogs and then mentions of it, and later the app, started appearing in the videos. At that time the vlogs were fun and random. Around the time he sold it, I kinda fell off and started to watch lil different stuff, podcasts, younger vloggers etc and I lost the track.
I loved the Neistat Brothers. So scatological and interesting. It inspired a group of friends in rural Nebraska to make a film. We learned about production and teamwork. It was an amazing time in our lives. Thank you for that inspiration.
so if you don’t like it why are you waving the israeli flag during a pro palestinian protest? you’re doing it because you’re not allowed to do it? playing devils advocate is advocating for the devil. this explanation is very childish 1:47:53
Wow a great interview did you do a studio tour of his studio too because I’m really interested in seeing what Casey’s studio looks like now Casey is literally my inspiration
Great interview. Always love Casey related content. Solid questions that captured a more open side of him. Definitely gained a sub. Also that 4k quality is crispy 🔥
This is the first time I see an interview of Casey where someone is really taking the time to understand him and leave space to unroll his thoughts instead of pushing him to explain things to reproduce. Thanks
@GillesBoyne is wife posted it to twitter confirming it, they both seems like pretty trash people and he control aspects of his interview to avoid accountability
Anti-semetic he says? Those poor Israelis killing 40k Palestinians, bombing Lebanon and still crying playing victim. Pro-palestinian and pro-peace and pro-human rights does not mean anti-semetic or anti-israeli existence.
Saying, being pro-Palestinian is anti-Semitic, IS anti-Semitic. Insinuating that being anti-Palestinian is synonymous with being Jewish both states a generalization, based on one's religion, and also discounts the massive number of Jewish members of the pro-Palestinian movement.
Casey I fking love you man. Admiring you from Argentina since my early years in TH-cam. Thanks for always showing people what you are: amazing. I would love to meet one day and learn from you. If I have the chance to go to NYC I would undoubtedly knock your door. Congratulations for all you have achieved!
The end was a fire🔥🔥🔥! Love it. This is one of the reasons I always say, "A lot of people are going to make money and go buy Ferraris, Lamborghinis or Yates, which is nothing wrong to do. But nothing better than having your life together and buying yourself the freedom to be yourself. Brutally honest can save the world, honestly. Thank you, Casey, for your amazing work
I remember the day the soap dish dropped. Still one of my favorite and memorable videos Casey ever did! Truly captures how such a small thing can either be frustrating or hilarious depending on your point of view!
Great interview. Disappointed though that Casey thinks that being against a terrorist regime in a country is antisemitic, which actually has to do with religion. They're not linked at all.
I agree but it’s also keeping his name as a creator, not many other people would want to work with him if he’s actively going against their wishes to upload content about them that they don’t like. Sorta like posting a photo that your friends look ugly in. People will stop wanting no to get photos with you
😂 omg have some SELF AWARENESS. His OPINION not matching YOURS doesnt make it "bad optics". It just means his opinion is DIFFERENT than YOURS. There is not a "right and wrong" opinion when it comes to that conflict. There's just opposing opinions depending on the person speaking about it. Also 99.9999% of the dummies that have an opinion know NOTHING about it other than what the news and friends tell them to believe. You're MOST LIKELY one of those dummies if you're not living it.
@@tigreytigrey8537there is absolutely a right and wrong "opinion" 😂 either you support killing Palestinians or you don't. It's actually very simple. And I would say supporting genocide is extremely bad optics. But that's just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@tigreytigrey8537 Israel has comitted more crimes than any Arab since 1898 crazy how a small population is capable of that and the pull zios have in America so fascinating.
I understand Casey's perspective on Palestine and recognize how polarized the issue has become. However, I believe it’s possible to hold two truths at once: the right of Israelis to live in peace and safety, alongside the equally undeniable right of Palestinians to exist and thrive. It's disappointing, though, that some try to form opinions on this incredibly complex situation without considering key historical and political contexts-how the Nakba unfolded, how current policies impact daily lives, and the tragic reality that Palestinian lives are lost to violence from settlers every day. It’s disheartening to see Casey engage with this topic without taking the time to truly understand it. Really disappointing Casey.
Especially when his engagement is directly counter-protesting an anti-genocide protest. Also equating this ongoing genocide to "oh america does/did bad things too" is incredibly inappropriate
I don't see how his stance is disappointing to you unless you don't believe in Israel's clear right to defend itself against a terrorist threat in Hamas. Palestinians deserve their right to have peace the same as Israel, yes. But not at the expense of Israel. And Hamas is the issue here Israel has statistically one of the most morally sound armies. Look up any conflict from around this world in the past 20 years, and you'll realize the polarizing focus on Israel is for 1 reason. Because of Jewish people and people upset for Jewish people to have a right to land. That's why they are constantly attacked and threatened by surrounding countries, when Israel is the only democratic nation in the middle east you would actually want to live, with women's rights and LBTG rights, unlike in Palestine where they would kill you for being gay. Israel and the Jews have the right to this land long before anybody else, and even before Islam existed. Palestine also had land, and an ability to create their own peaceful nation. Instead, they did the opposite with much support from the Palestinian people. Is that fair? No. But it's reality. And before you refutall with Israel's "illegal occupation" and "apartheid" or "genocide" or talk about occupation, you need to realize that every single country on earth is occupied. Israel and the Jews have the right to this land long before anybody else, and even before Islam existed. This war scale-wise is miniature and Hamas recently uncovered that the death toll is virtually a lie because almost all of them were Hamas soldiers or families held against their own will as human shield. And every country has a right to wage war and reap the benefits and consequences of wars that are started, and the outcome of said war. Palestine continues to wage war and lose. And much like any war in modern history, outcomes come with negotiation. What did Germany do when they lost the war? They saw their wrongdoings and corrected their nation. Now a flourishing place of peace and propserity. Palestine could do that. Israel gives gave them millions in aid, electricity, and water. Foreign aid gave them millions to rebuild their country in the 2000s. But instead, they built tunnels and rockets and held wealth from their people. I believe Casey doesn't get into the history because of this type of controversy of you being "disappointed," for Jews needing to justify defending themselves from a nation that could have peace but chooses constantly, and irrefutably against it.
the nakba... you mean a war that Israel didnt want or start when arab refused peace....? You clearly left this comment because you lean very heavy on one side of the argument and i call THAT disheartening. Cases is a class act.
I have watched pretty much all of Casey interviews and vlogs over the years But this is by far one of the best insights extracted from him Nothing new but just the way all the things he said over the years condensed into one interview The way he broke down how he thought of a simple video of the fire hydrant or bike lanes which I ended up rewatching and gave me a different perspective after hearing his behind the scenes thoughts process
Great interview, I was really late to Casey (knew of him but didn't 'get it') but I watched hours and hours of his videos and I really Love them He should be paid by the New York Tourism Board for his Videos you can feel the craft and love in them and they are genuine honest and warm - an amazing story teller, and I miss him posting content more regularly.
This time, I heard Casey share his vlogging background from a new perspective for the first time. It was definitely something fresh and honest. Thank you for the great interview!
By definition, the tragic ongoing conflict is NOT a genocide and is one of the LOWEST civilian-to-combatant wars in history. Thats not an opinion thats a fact.
@@ArielBenabraham I think you have just uttered a single biggest lie in history of man kind. Real numbers are... they have killed arround 500 hamas people and over 60k civilians + 100k uncounted cases.
Not a genocide, it’s a war. If it was a genocide, why are there over 2 million Palestinian people living with full rights in Israel, they even have seats in Congress, the Palestinian population has grown 10X in Israel since the 70s - educate yourself
I don’t think there’s an interview such as great as this one by Jon that captures Casey’s in-depth creative process. Also have to say that as an Israeli when Casey pulled out the flag, I have not expected this to be such an emotional turn point. Only a Jewish person will understand that. Thank you for including this scene Jon💙
Hmmm some double standards at the end, saying "they're not willing to engage in conversation" but Casey's first response is to label the march "Antisemitism". Unfortunately Casey's words afterwards come across as hollow when seeing his actions and emotional response. Sure you can fly your flag, some might say that's trying to provoke a response but it's also a way to show your allegiance, just like they protesters do. Opposing sides can engage in conversation but to outright label an opposing view as a hate group before a single word has been spoken, shows your unwillingness to an open conversation.
@@mikehillprojectIsrael supported hamas in its inception, they funded it , you moron, then Israel is just using Hamas as an excuse to ethnic cleanse and take gaza strip
he repeats that "youre not allowed to say that" but yet, he just did. he just said all those things. because you are in fact allowed to say them. but people like him say that youre not allowed to say them because they want you to know that they feel that they are right and you are wrong. that is the same populism he uses that he apparently critizices. casey, you can do better than that. why do you support israel when you believe that palestinians deserve to live in peace. you can _say_ those two things, but you cant believe in both of them. that doesnt work. at some point you have to let your jewish pride and you cannot support israel anymore if you believe those things truly. and if you dont, you really dont.
Casey is very intelligent and has a lot to teach the world through his craft and words. Yet most comments here decided to focus on polarizing ONE of his statements. I understand now why he stopped creating that much, because the world stopped evolving to understand how bright he is.
Love Casey, in the way that helped me to do new stuff, do video, think different and keep doing things. I always learn something new from his words & perspective, he always manage to give new lessons of work & life. Hope to meet him someday and say: Thank You Man. (Love the video Jon new subscriber here)
You really get a great understanding of how actually childish and shortsighted Casey really is in this interview. From his takes on "Israel bad but America bad too!" to waving a Jewish flag above a pro palestinian protest, it's just extremely embarrassing to admit that i used to watch this man vlog his life, and actually enjoyed his content.
God I love your interviews, first 7 minutes in and you've asked Casey a question getting him to talk about something in a way he's never spoken about it before. Jon you're a master of your craft.

Same here. This is gold!
That he betrayed a young girl who was sA'd and He made a documentary telling her story, now he won't release it to protect DD?
Him not publishing the documentary on David Dobrick is an extrapolation of his stance on Israel. It's his love for Dobrick/Israel that he doesn't want to hold them truly accountable for the injustice done via their actions. In both scenario's he expresses that he values both sides "equally", but by doing so, it only empowers the party that is in the more powerful position. It doesn't help the suppressed party. Wether these are the victims of David Dobrick's actions, or the Palestinians that are being de-humanised by the state of Israel.
That's an interesting point, but I think it's also just the classic centrist worldview. You only learn enough about an issue to get to that sweet spot of the Dunning-Kruger effect where you have peak confidence in your worldview, even though it remains pretty uninformed and largely incoherent if you scratch beneath the surface. But it feels good to think you know better than everyone else, so you dismiss people as too extreme when you don't have any substantive counterarguments to their points, all the while telling everyone you're willing to listen to both sides.
spot on! exactly this
Hold Israel accountable for .. getting invaded by terrorist? He is a New Yorker, a Jew, and he was in NY on 9/11. There absolutely zero chance Casey would not sympathize with the people of Israel and the way Jews have been targeted since. As he was explaining, America's foreign policy does not mean it is open season against Americans. It is the same with Israelis and all peoples. Also, you do not hold a country 'accountable' by saying it should stop existing.

I work in video because of Casey’s influence. Incredibly great long form convo. Thanks for this and now I will subscribe! 97 percent!!! That’s crazy..
Thanks Miles! Appreciate you man
What a shame! Jon appeared truly disappointed at the end of the video when casey shared his views, as am i.
I love how you put effort to put information about some person you were talking about, or you include some of video you talk about. It is really helpful and make me more engaged. Really appreciate that! And that is quite unique among another podcasts! Great job ❤
that david dobrik documentary needs to come out, needs to happen!
Jon: the new greatest interviewer on YT. Love it man
PS huge congrats to Casey on his sub 3 hr marathon. That's inspiring.
thank you Richard! Always appreciate your support from the beginning man
I’m so disappointed in Casey for not letting the documentary speak for itself…thought he had more loyalty to the work and the victim who trusted him with her story. Not showing David in his own words is simply enabling a grown man who clearly needs to learn
He knows his success on TH-cam was based on the NYC bike video. "Oh 30 mil views?" lol You won the algorithm lottery bro. Accept it
there are some true golden moment in this interview. ive been watching casey for almost 10 year. thank you for being so present throught this video. and forcing him to cringe over his own work. i wish you success, and balance in all you set out to achieve. looking forward to more from you.
did he talk about how he supports Zionism
jews deserve self-determination, specially after the holocaust.
Casey got a spin of a wet spaghetti noodle. Post the documentary, Justice for jeff and all the victims is more important than your “friendship” with david
That last part was despicable (I’m also “never one to hold my tongue” so I’m not doing that here). I was hoping Casey would have changed by now, to understand nuance. He claims to be to be the nuance guy, but clearly isn’t capable, and, from my viewpoint, has never truly presented as such. Very sad.
given that he's Jewish his opinion totally makes sense and is valid. At the end of the day Isreali people and Palistinians are not bad people but they have people in charge making bad decisions. I think it is very acceptable and far from despicable to say that you care for both sides but to add nuance too.
yeah, very childish, classic oy vey
Loving the concept of a place doesn't excuse genocide. Sure, be outspoken, but educate yourself beforehand. "I don't know much about Israeli politics" then don't have an opinion?
fr, its not as "both sides" as the media portrays, ethnic cleansing IS occurring
Great interview. Amazing insights! Thank you both

Wonderful quote and extremely inspirational.
I can’t help but think of the scene from “The Founder.” Great quote and movie.
But we can all agree that Casey is the one that made the vlog more cinematic than it was before him it was just like documenting your day-to-day life and with him. Casey introduced storytelling Drone footage time lapse stuff that you would normally see in a movie different transitions different angles that is why people watched it and it wasn't like Charles Trippy the Shaytards these video creators that were just holding a camera in front of their face saying hey I'm going to go eat McDonald's and then the next clip would be him at McDonald's eating Casey took it a step further. And made the vlogs super cinematic
Exactly
The problem with Casey and Israel is the fact that he showed support for IDF (by supporting Eylon Levy in his Instagram on March 2024), not just the Jewish cause. IDF is politics. So no point in saying in the video that you do not understand Israel politics and then supporting its major policy enforcer. The problem with Gaza now is not anti-semitism. What Israel been doing for decades is ethnic cleansing, invading territory and disrupting Palestianian chances of creating a viable state by supporting radical extremism (it is well documented Israel's involvement in the creation of Hamas). So by waving his little flag by the window, what he is actually doing is supporting a right-wing government, with two radical ministers (Yoav Galant and Bezalel Smotrich) that want to cleanse the Palestinian people and exert territorial dominion in the area, with the support of the US and British forces. For someone with such reach, Casey needs to study a bit more.
The IDF if responsible for for protecting almost 10 million Israeli citizens which also includes 2+ million Arab Israeli citizens... He didnt even mention the IDF in this video get a grip.
@@ArielBenabrahamthank you for saying something to this clown
@@ArielBenabraham Protecting by arresting them, harassing them, saying to minors I want to f%ck you? They are war criminals every single one of them.
The Israel funded Hamas talking point is so dumb. They gave funds to Hamas before it was a militarized group in hopes of replacing the PLO who didn't look like they had any plans of coming to peace. Saying Hamas is the radical extremist group that pushed Palestinians over even though they had been occupied for half a century already is stupid, Israel funding Hamas didn't really change much.

So good at not interrupting. Loved this interview.
Happy to hear what Casey has been up to, i haven't seen his content in well over a year. It just rubs me the wrong way the fact that Casey isn't sure about sharing the documentary when, in one way or another, the victim had to re-live the experience by talking to him, watching the film and having whatever involvement she had in it (idk the extent) just because he "still deeply loves and cares about David" is crazy. He said it himself, they trusted him to share their story and it ended up in a dark corner of Casey's storage device... i really hope he decides to share it, because David's behavior is unacceptable and he needs to be held accountable, even more so after what happened to Jeff....
these are some great points and makes a strong argument that not releasing the documentary is disrespectful to those who participated.
I think Casey knows dobrik could sue Casey into oblivion if he did release it
@@ThatsBadTV i'd think Casey is smart enough to have him sign any release/legal docs to avoid getting sued, i also don't see how a defamation lawsuit would be possible, the guy agreed to have the documentary premiere at sxsw... if he wanted to sue him, he would have done it by now...
1:44:04 The march was pro-Palestinian, not anti-Israeli.The State of Palestine no longer exists because it did not have the right to defend itself.the interview was great, love it
When did the state of Palestine exist?
Funny how Casey is trying to appear/act rational yet spews out fake out stuff like anti-israel rally. It's this exact ear-covering angry-shouting stuff that he's complaining about that he's doing himself with calling them "them" and hiding behind his flag in his expensive studio. He doesn't have any interest in actually listening. How can he be proud to be so ignorant, doesn't "even know" what Bibi is up to and the millions he's displaced / killed / ruined lives / futures etc. This interview fell flat on its face w/letting Casey just steamroll over w/his BS. It's this blind following/support of heritage that continues these stupid hate wars forever. He can be critical of the leaders of israel and still support the country. If he thinks not then - I don't want that nationalistic support/thinking anywhere near me.
@@TheOnlyAtalya When was the extremist Zionist entity created? 1948.
@@TheOnlyAtalyajust look before the 1948 to 100ad everyone called it palestine even Jews. It was Palestine for almost 2000 years. Judea Samaria was never existed they were puppet states , they had no sovereignity.
@TheOnlyAtalya may be look at any history book, it was called Palestine for more longer than Israel. Israel is not even comparable.
Framing protesting the killing of the Palestinian civilians as "anti-semitism" is one of the cheapest and most disingenuous things one can say. Then he says that he doesn't know anything about Israeli politics or Netanyahu. Israeli government went much further than protecting the Israel's right to exist. Neistat obviously has a problem with Palestine's right to exist. Hypocritical doesn't even begin to describe it.
Most protests perpetuate the same messages that Hamas tells, which is to free Palestine by taking Israel, which in the Hamas charter very literally says in writing to massacre all jews around the world. If you are Jewish and listen to this often, how would you feel?
If you believe what you say, then you should tell Hamas to release the hostages (including American citizens btw) and end the war they started. And to stop hiding guns, bombs, and their military bases in civilian homes, hospitals, and schools. Also, tell them to stop killing people for being gay and stealing Palestinian aid.
If you truly understood anything about the Israeli army instead of watching propaganda from TikTok, you would strongly change your stance. I write you, similarly to Casey, as a Jewish man trying to have a real conversation about the conflict. I strongly agree and understand what Casey is saying. And, I urge you to reconsider your stance here.
It IS antisemitism most of the time when people say Israel should be destroyed.
if you want a "right to exist" dont elect a terrorist organisation as your government, especially not ones who will use you as a human shield.
@ Election? When was the election? You think there's a democracy? When did dead Palestinian children vote?
@@ge2719 "Right to exist" is not encumberment of your government. People's lives matter. But unless you're a Jew, you believe of everyone else as subhuman, with no right to exist. We see that very clearly with what Palestinians are going through
It’s tough to see Casey being so clearly capable of understanding nuance and context - up until the conversation of Palestine in which he limits his ability to do that - which is captured in the moment where he says “I don’t understand Israeli politics…we’ve had really bad presidents too”.
Although he believes in the self determination of Palestinians (which is great). He simultaneously disregards the conversation that is at the core of the issue for folks that are pro-palestine. I hope he sees that part of the conversation through eventually.
What is at the core of the issue for people who are pro-Palestine is their belief that Israel should stop existing. And Casey is absolutely right to not entertain this at all.
It was an Anti-Israel march or Anti-Genocide march?
The first minute of this video is already the most exciting thing I've watched in a while. Good job.
Thank you! Haha we spend a ton of time editing those intros so appreciate you saying that 🙏

Cállate la Jeta
yea the only people that call that war a genocide are anti-semites or idiots, I wonder which you are
I found Casey and Candice interesting. Tho, like everything with Casey Neistat, when he turns into a little bro-bitch, he goes hard. Referring to Pro Palestine marches as "antisemitic" is extremely telling. That lack of self awareness and of empathy, combined with a sense of entitlement, goes hand in hand with the way he's handled the documentary. The full throated declaration of "not one to hold my tongue" falls a little short when you give a rape victim a voice, then lock it away.
Israel's greatest enemy is the information age. "The right" for an apartheid state "to exist" is crazy.
Great interview. Well done. ✌
Casey please bring back the hoodies! Have Candice sell them with Billy!
And PLEASE PLEASE bring back Couples Therapy! I miss listening to them a lot.
He's backing David now too. Crazy. Not holding David accountable. Crazy. Having an SA survivor tell her story to you only to market it, make money and then can it.
It's because he's Jewish, they always stick together and defend each other just like Harvey Weinstein and all the other Jewish people called out during the metoo movement.
What do you mean? Where was this
@samuelrokk He's been advertising this documentary forever. Now he comes on the interview and decides "I'm not gonna show it" and "David is a great guy who handled every situation poorly". The SA wasn't caused by David but it happened because of his direct negligence in an environment he created in the process of creating content for him. Jeff wittek was directly injured by David who sped up that crane, then he left that dude high and dry, because no one held him accountable. Jeff decided to sue because of the things David said in the rough cut of the documentary. David did handle things poorly but that dude in no way is a good guy. He's just another rich dude getting away without consequences because people around him protect him more than his own actions.
@@siddhantroychowdhury7234a Jew withholds information to try and protect another Jew from looking bad regarding SA. Many such cases
What’s keeping that victim from giving a different person her story? What’s stopping her from posting it on her own socials? Or telling the cops or suing? Ridiculous. Whatever is required for legal reasons can easily be subpoenaed but releasing it knowing that it’s just a bunch of stupid children waiting for “tea” would be irresponsible. He’s a grown man that recognises mob thinking and refuses to feed it. Good for him
bro you're a true legend! this interview is really an eye opening one, can't wait for the new videos ur gonna upload!!!👏
Dude I didn’t know you, or your channel. It’s a f* great interview. Youre on my top 10 interviewers from now on.
I would love to see a series from Casey where he critiques his own videos in this kind of format. It's so interesting to see the creator find flaws in something that us as the audience consider perfectly imperfect.
I've always been a huge fan of Casey, until today.
I used to be the kind of filmmaker who would think, "What would Casey do?". But in this interview, it was like I was sitting there myself talking to him.
And I thought it was amazing that in one moment he's talking about loving a guy who acts like a 16-year-old even though he's almost 30, who protected abusers, who refuses to pay for surgery and medical treatment for someone who almost died in an accident, a guy who would do absolutely EVERYTHING with a smile on his face for the sake of content and views, a guy who seems unscrupulous, and he talks about DEEP LOVE and the will to protect him.
But 10 seconds later, when people protest against a genocide, a protest that was clearly IN FAVOR OF A COUNTRY, not necessarily against another, but against monstrous attitudes that are happening, he stands up, runs and confronts the protesters and says that that protest was anti-Israel (???).
Maybe his love for Dobrick is due to the fact that there was a connection, maybe he looks at him like looking into a mirror, after all, he practically sacrificed years of his marriage and being present for his own children in favor of creating content as well.
Thank you Jon Youshaei, this is real journalism, this is real content, you did an amazing job!
Oh yeah so the pro Palestinian protests are not against Jews, ok, explain Amsterdam RIGHT NOW. Hundreds of Jews being slaughtered in a soccer match by pro-Palestinian terrorists just because they’re Jews. Stop the virtue signaling and stop the propaganda. Explain Amsterdam. Why do you keep murdering innocent Jewish people in every single pro Palestinian protest?
I'm sure Casey will be very concerned about your lack of understanding of his worldview.
Loved this. Super interesting and learned a bunch. Thanks Jon!
casey says he started the vlog to show off his app Beam. But when i started watching Casey i didnt even know he had a App, not until years later he ever talked about ti. so a lot of his timelines dont add up. FYI this interview was crazy good. i felt like i was sitting there with you guys. The view and prospective of shots of casey were a perfect distance and frame. this a real masterpiece of recorded interviews.
i think he just didn't want his youtube videos to be him constantly talking about his app. he wanted it to be separate, especially when even though you're a fan of him, some people dont like him or have negative impressions of him, so its better for his separate business if its not attached to his other brand image especially if he's planning on building it up to sell it eventually, if a company relies too much on a person to be the brand then its much harder to sell it because the company buying it can't own him. he likely won't come as part of the deal for anymore than a few years. and so losing the person who is the brand image can destroy companies when customers only bought into it because of who made it.
I guess with that busy person on daily basis and so many things happened at that time, the timeline is broken a bit for him subjectively. We, who followed at that moment, know kinda better. The Beme idea came a lot later after he started daily vlogs and then mentions of it, and later the app, started appearing in the videos. At that time the vlogs were fun and random. Around the time he sold it, I kinda fell off and started to watch lil different stuff, podcasts, younger vloggers etc and I lost the track.
I loved the Neistat Brothers. So scatological and interesting. It inspired a group of friends in rural Nebraska to make a film. We learned about production and teamwork. It was an amazing time in our lives. Thank you for that inspiration.
so if you don’t like it why are you waving the israeli flag during a pro palestinian protest? you’re doing it because you’re not allowed to do it? playing devils advocate is advocating for the devil. this explanation is very childish 1:47:53
Wow a great interview did you do a studio tour of his studio too because I’m really interested in seeing what Casey’s studio looks like now Casey is literally my inspiration
great video. strong questions. the end of it got real dark. casey doesn't realise he's acting like the antagonist
lol oh he’s genetically aware of his roll as the antagonist.
Nope. He's neither antagonist against palestine nor israel.
Insane how he doesn't see the contradiction between his words and actions.
Great interview. Always love Casey related content. Solid questions that captured a more open side of him. Definitely gained a sub. Also that 4k quality is crispy 🔥
This is the first time I see an interview of Casey where someone is really taking the time to understand him and leave space to unroll his thoughts instead of pushing him to explain things to reproduce. Thanks
Didnt he attack a waiter in a coffee shop for wearing a pin cause his wife took offence?
@ who ? Casey ? I don’t know
@GillesBoyne is wife posted it to twitter confirming it, they both seems like pretty trash people and he control aspects of his interview to avoid accountability
Anti-semetic he says? Those poor Israelis killing 40k Palestinians, bombing Lebanon and still crying playing victim.
Pro-palestinian and pro-peace and pro-human rights does not mean anti-semetic or anti-israeli existence.
You Gotta Pump Those Numbers Up, Those Are Rookie Numbers
Saying, being pro-Palestinian is anti-Semitic, IS anti-Semitic. Insinuating that being anti-Palestinian is synonymous with being Jewish both states a generalization, based on one's religion, and also discounts the massive number of Jewish members of the pro-Palestinian movement.
What a legend he is. Godfather of daily vlogging

Terrible Take on Isreal Genocide. REALLY BAD OPTICS CASEY
😂 omg have some SELF AWARENESS. His OPINION not matching YOURS doesnt make it "bad optics". It just means his opinion is DIFFERENT than YOURS. There is not a "right and wrong" opinion when it comes to that conflict. There's just opposing opinions depending on the person speaking about it.

I understand Casey's perspective on Palestine and recognize how polarized the issue has become. However, I believe it’s possible to hold two truths at once: the right of Israelis to live in peace and safety, alongside the equally undeniable right of Palestinians to exist and thrive.
It's disappointing, though, that some try to form opinions on this incredibly complex situation without considering key historical and political contexts-how the Nakba unfolded, how current policies impact daily lives, and the tragic reality that Palestinian lives are lost to violence from settlers every day. It’s disheartening to see Casey engage with this topic without taking the time to truly understand it.
Really disappointing Casey.
Especially when his engagement is directly counter-protesting an anti-genocide protest. Also equating this ongoing genocide to "oh america does/did bad things too" is incredibly inappropriate
I don't see how his stance is disappointing to you unless you don't believe in Israel's clear right to defend itself against a terrorist threat in Hamas. Palestinians deserve their right to have peace the same as Israel, yes. But not at the expense of Israel. And Hamas is the issue here
Israel has statistically one of the most morally sound armies. Look up any conflict from around this world in the past 20 years, and you'll realize the polarizing focus on Israel is for 1 reason. Because of Jewish people and people upset for Jewish people to have a right to land. That's why they are constantly attacked and threatened by surrounding countries, when Israel is the only democratic nation in the middle east you would actually want to live, with women's rights and LBTG rights, unlike in Palestine where they would kill you for being gay. Israel and the Jews have the right to this land long before anybody else, and even before Islam existed. Palestine also had land, and an ability to create their own peaceful nation. Instead, they did the opposite with much support from the Palestinian people. Is that fair? No. But it's reality.
And before you refutall with Israel's "illegal occupation" and "apartheid" or "genocide" or talk about occupation, you need to realize that every single country on earth is occupied. Israel and the Jews have the right to this land long before anybody else, and even before Islam existed. This war scale-wise is miniature and Hamas recently uncovered that the death toll is virtually a lie because almost all of them were Hamas soldiers or families held against their own will as human shield.
And every country has a right to wage war and reap the benefits and consequences of wars that are started, and the outcome of said war. Palestine continues to wage war and lose. And much like any war in modern history, outcomes come with negotiation. What did Germany do when they lost the war? They saw their wrongdoings and corrected their nation. Now a flourishing place of peace and propserity. Palestine could do that. Israel gives gave them millions in aid, electricity, and water. Foreign aid gave them millions to rebuild their country in the 2000s. But instead, they built tunnels and rockets and held wealth from their people.
I believe Casey doesn't get into the history because of this type of controversy of you being "disappointed," for Jews needing to justify defending themselves from a nation that could have peace but chooses constantly, and irrefutably against it.
the Nakba? you mean 1947 when Arabs refused to make peace with Jews and launch a war to genocide them and then lost? that nakba?
the nakba... you mean a war that Israel didnt want or start when arab refused peace....? You clearly left this comment because you lean very heavy on one side of the argument and i call THAT disheartening. Cases is a class act.

But this is by far one of the best insights extracted from him
Nothing new but just the way all the things he said over the years condensed into one interview

I don’t think there’s an interview such as great as this one by Jon that captures Casey’s in-depth creative process.
Also have to say that as an Israeli when Casey pulled out the flag, I have not expected this to be such an emotional turn point.
Only a Jewish person will understand that.
Thank you for including this scene Jon💙
Hmmm some double standards at the end, saying "they're not willing to engage in conversation" but Casey's first response is to label the march "Antisemitism". Unfortunately Casey's words afterwards come across as hollow when seeing his actions and emotional response. Sure you can fly your flag, some might say that's trying to provoke a response but it's also a way to show your allegiance, just like they protesters do. Opposing sides can engage in conversation but to outright label an opposing view as a hate group before a single word has been spoken, shows your unwillingness to an open conversation.
The awareness needs to begin with the Palestinian people breaking free of Hamas. If you support Hamas you support hate and antisemitism.

Great interview, you asked good interesting questions... But let's get the David Dobrick documentary out!
this was single-handedly one of the best podcasts I’ve ever watched. Casey is such a class act guy.
Totally agree, he is one classy, pro-genocide guy!
In the same breath of saying “David did a very poor job of communicating” Casey goes off and does a terrible job of talking on Isreal and Palestine.
he repeats that "youre not allowed to say that" but yet, he just did. he just said all those things. because you are in fact allowed to say them. but people like him say that youre not allowed to say them because they want you to know that they feel that they are right and you are wrong.
that is the same populism he uses that he apparently critizices. casey, you can do better than that. why do you support israel when you believe that palestinians deserve to live in peace. you can _say_ those two things, but you cant believe in both of them. that doesnt work. at some point you have to let your jewish pride and you cannot support israel anymore if you believe those things truly. and if you dont, you really dont.
Casey is very intelligent and has a lot to teach the world through his craft and words. Yet most comments here decided to focus on polarizing ONE of his statements. I understand now why he stopped creating that much, because the world stopped evolving to understand how bright he is.

I always learn something new from his words & perspective, he always manage to give new lessons of work & life. Hope to meet him someday and say: Thank You Man. (Love the video Jon new subscriber here)
You really get a great understanding of how actually childish and shortsighted Casey really is in this interview.
From his takes on "Israel bad but America bad too!" to waving a Jewish flag above a pro palestinian protest, it's just extremely embarrassing to admit that i used to watch this man vlog his life, and actually enjoyed his content.
Casey inspired me to create. Thank you for this interview.
