Leaning their real names blew my mind more than it should have
Lol, same. I was listening with headphones at school and I must have had a very shocked look on my face because my friend asked me if I was ok 😂
Me too
I knew Skizz's name because he called his mom during a live stream and she accidentally let it slip.
I always thought Impulse's name was Steve.. just looked like a Steve to me.
Same I literally paused it and rewind es it to make sure I heard correctly that they said their real names
Learning your names feels like a kid finding out their first grade teacher doesn’t actually live at the school 😂😂 feels like forbidden knowledge 😂
LITERALLYYYY
It feels like learning your parent’s names aren’t dad and mom
@@MoonlitBookworm73 so true.
Mumbo's police story was hilarious, I can't imagine what was going through the officer's mind. ALSO HOLY MOLY I didn't know Impulse and Skizz's names. To me they will always be Impulse and Skizz.
@The_Brick_PileI never caught it knew skizz but not imp
same! i never thought they had said theyre names before
I had heard their names before and I honestly did not remember them! Like you, they are and always will be Imp & Skizz
To be honest with me their names to me is like what technos face was pre death have I seen it yep do I know what it looks like not a clue the names they said it forgot skiz before imp said his followed by imps name 20 seconds later then again I also worked with someone for 6 months thinking of him as old mate because I forgot it on the first day and didn’t want to ask again
I knew skizz's name for a while but it's the first time Impulse said his real name
"Oli Brotherhood" is, quite possibly, the most British name in the world.😄🇬🇧
It's actually Oliver Brotherhood but still, very British
Wait till you hear about Charles Batchelor
Oh ya, Grian, lol! That may win, Mumbo is now second place.@@richlearner2723
@@richlearner2723 isn’t that grian’s name?
Anime main character names
That probably explains why Skizz usually calls smajor as smajor instead of Scott in the Life SMPs but everyone else calls smajor as Scott
Ohhhh good catch!!! Sherlock over here!!
That is definitely why then. I always wondered about it, now we know!
I've never noticed that he's the only one to call him smajor... also Skizz was pretty surprised it felt like in episode one that the group is called Gem and the Scott's knowing Impulse wants to remain Impulse and not Scott.

Hearing Oli talk about food addiction was so real. Thanks for being so honest about that Mumbo, it helps others feel less alone
Yeah it hits hard, food addiction is rough
I agree I was so touched by his being that vulnerable. I think the guys understood the gravity and didn't want to make him feel pressured. But I would have loved to hear accolades for Oli's (Mumbo's) bravery and honesty.
I feel like food addiction isn't accepted as an issue at all. If you're having problems eating too much/binge eating or other things then it's your fault for having no self controll, and you're stupid and lazy. I guess it's the thing with humans in general. If you're not having a problem with a spesific thing then others shouldn't either, and if they do they themselves are the problem. They don't see that they have issues with other stuff, that other people might think is weird. I wish we could just understand that even though we're not going through the same things as someone else we can still try to understand that they are having a hard time and needs someone to be there for them. I'm so glad that Oli dared talking about it!
i can really relate to that "can i figure out an excuse to donate money so i can have some junkfood". i've been trying to quit smoking for 10 yrs and do that to myself every time i'm under a lot of stress. i've known several gambling addicts that, "well, i don't want to gamble all the time - just when the opportunity presents itself" and alcoholics past the time when they even bother trying to rationalize it anymore. addiction is an awful thing whatever you're addicted to.
I've also struggled with food and knowing that Oli, someone I respect so much for many of the same reasons Skizz admires him, also struggles with it... the emotion that Oli has when talking about it hits so hard and so close to home. I hope that it gets easier on him.
With Impulse giving us his real name, I’m now wondering if there’s ever been any confusion in the Life series when someone was calling for Smajor
Martyn killed the Scotts.
Probably no
@@runedoom😂
@runedoom7740 Matyn needs to kill all the Scotts >:3
honestly I could see it happening just in the fact that with my name (danielle or dani) sometimes i know they are talking to someone else ( like there is a daniel or danny in my math class) I still will respond.
My conclusion from the comments: 4-5 people didn't realize that Grian isn't Grian's real name, Andy fits Skiz but Impulse looks like a: Steve, Stevan/Stephan, Sean, Brian, and Mike.
People are very interesting. Also, if Impulse wasn't comfortable with his real name being known, that clip would have been cut out. They have the capability to do that.
I'm imagining it being his real name and like when he got married his wife having to say it. Also he did pick a very him name to go by 😂. The second Impulse was like it begins with S I thought Steve too!
Iirc Grian’s real name is Charles/Charlie
@@quakxy_dukx yes, his full (first) name is Charles
@@Hufflepuff_cookieCharles ‘Grian’ Bachelor
@@WonkyWater-YTLord Charles 'Grian' Bachelor*
I love the mental image of the kid in Switzerland riding home in the Alps just crossing paths with Mumbo and unknowingly causing such inspiration. That's life, isn't it? All of us living in our own little niches, and then these profound moments of encountering each other. Imagine if that kid got home and pulled up some Minecraft videos to relax after school.
"on the trip you have a clear direction, then you go home and get hit by the question, what is your direction in life?"
this was so beautiful, thank you
I'm sorry, I can't call you guys Andy or Scott or Olli. You're still Mumbo/Impulse/Skizz.
I'm so used to Scott being Dangthatsalongname and Oli being OrionSound
Same I wonder if @TheOrionsound and @Danthatsalongname know they share a name with these guys
Maybe they need to do a 2v2 challenge
@@prateekkalle2474Scott likely knows, as he sends out the MCC coins
Who're these people?!
I love how Skizz just drops in the "it's called retrograde interference." and no one bats an eye! Also I love when people's names fit their personality and Andy fits!
Yes! I was like, "It *is* called retroactive interference! Skizz-Andy with the random psychology facts!" 😂
I was going to guess Impulse was named George and Skizz was named Frank
@@Werewolf914 frank oddly fits skizz as well
tho i thought impulse was more of a jason or something, but scott fits too
Hate to be the nerd here, but if you're talking about the actual/ old names getting in the way of remembering the new/ minecraft names, it would actually be proactive interference, not retroactive.
Not trying to be a hater. It's just what I study. Sorry!
@@jackiemaass5425 I love it! So then retroactive is the opposite! :)
I finally understand why your Secret Life alliance was called "Gem and the Scotts" lol. When Gem mentioned that you were both Scott, I was like "What is she talking about? Only Smajor is Scott." LOL
BRUH. gem said “you’re Scott and your Scott, so gem and the Scott’s!”
@@Shortnamesareoverratedwhen Gem said that, I didn't understand why she was saying that. I didn't realize she was sharing impulse's real name at the time lol. I need these things spelled out for me
OK. I don't want "the reveal" to overshadow the fact that this was an AWESOME Part 2 with Mumbo. Already loved Mumbo, and seeing this side of him made me like him that much more! Thanks Imp and Skizz for making this happen!
Thanks for Scott and Andy for being awesome!
oh man, I didn't realize the Peace Love and Plants loophole thing was so personal
Thank you, Mumbo, for trusting your audience with this
You're right, the IRL backstory puts a whole new light on that story arc. Storytelling and the creative process can be a really powerful way to work through our issues.

Thanks alot for the timestamps! I wanted to go back and listen to a specific part but it was faster to find your comment while scrolling than skimming though the video haha
Thank you! Posts like this and the lyrics to songs are genuinely the unsung backbones of our society
Thanks for timestamps as these will make this video more interesting to watch.
I still see comments related to Smajor.
As someone who struggles with binge eating, hearing Mumbo talking about the 'food negotiations' just hit home. Knowing I'm not the only one who has those thoughts and responses is somewhat comforting. Keep going Mumbo, I believe in you and I'm so glad you're in a better place. Thank you for being such an inspiration for everyone. 💓
lmao 21st century problems
So... when do we get the Skizz hikes to the bottom of the Grand Canyon movie directed by Mumbo?
Yessss
So fascinating hearing Mumbo talk about his filmmaking work
I just love how down to earth all your guests are. Fame, notoriety, recognition... just doesn't matter. They just come across as such lovely human beings.
I’ve struggled with food my entire life, both binging and restricting, and hearing that Oli struggles with binging too kinda shook me since BED is one of the less acknowledged eating disorders
I’ve known Skizz’s name for years now but finding out Impulse’s name is wild to me. He’s always been so private with it
Lucky I’m very bad with names. I will only remember Impulse and Skizz. I did see Impulse hesitating. For me I will always respect the privacy they want to keep and using an aliasname will creates some form of seperation. So let’s all forget and only use their creative names.
I also respect people privacy so I still would call them as there fake name
We've also known them as Impulse and Skizzleman for long enough where we default to referring to them by their online aliases, which helps out with maintaining that distinction for sure. Was cool to hear their real names as a fun fact but I agree that continuing to call them by their creative names will be best for their comfort and privacy
@@Emancyphur Skizz revealed his first name a couple years ago on Twitter, but because he is always referred to as Skizz or Skizzleman everywhere else, I never really thought about it again until today.
*in the voice of Skizz*
They just put that name-bomb out there like NOTHING!
GREAT episode, Mumbo seens like a such down to earth kind of guy, it's hard to believe he is not in his 40s!
Wow, I continue to be impressed at how emotionally intelligent Skizz is. You handled Mumbo's moment of vulnerability perfectly. Thank you. I genuinely appreciate this podcast.
I so get Mumbo's reference to the process of hating everything you create. I took a creative writing course in college and the professor talked about "sometimes you have to kill your darlings". It may be the scene that inspired you to create the whole story in the first place, but in the process of evolving the story in the end you just have to cut it. Great episode guys, i really enjoyed it. Great name bomb release too!
Is this the first time Impulse dropped his name? This is so cool!
I think so, yeah, super interesting and I can imagine him playing with Smajor and hearing everyone calling Scott and doing a double take :O
I am not totally sure, it might be that he mentioned his first name on a stream once. At least i am sure, that he mentioned before, that "SV" are his initials 🙂
The SV are his initials thing has been mentioned many times during livestreams. I don't know if he's ever revealed his name before this.
Not the first time, he dropped it casually in one of his first MC series. The one he did with his son, I think.
I know Skizz dropped his irl name on a Twitter post a few years ago, thanking the team he coached for their end of season appreciation.
Just seeing Olis webcam picture shows how much more advanced he is. Perfect Color grading for a cinematic look
Nobody expected the name drop! But to be honest, in my head you both will always be Imp and Skizz :D
Also, Mumbo is just such a wholesome person! Very mature for such a young age! I love when you have guest, because we get to know a whole other side of them. Thank you for such an amazing episode :D
I didn't know "they're" (their) given names. I finally know🎉 but I will immediately forget after this podcast

@@TheChannelOfDR I use speech to text meaning I speak into the microphone and the puts text on it. That's what the device said for that "they're"
Same
Every week I think THIS one is my favorite podcast episode and it’s happened again with this week’s offering. Skizz, you nailed it at the end by telling Oli what a good dude he is. Thanks Impulse and Skizzleman for bringing such joy to my day, week after week. 💞
It's strange hearing real names of people who use alias'. The brain just doesn't want to accept their alias, even if a crazy gamer name, isn't their real name lol.
In my brain impulse on hermitcraft is a different impulse than when hes streaming other games, something about seeing his face but also his intonation is different
The alias is the character they've developed, it's a unique personality that's grown intentionally over the years of content creation. It's like the real name gets filed as a bit of trivia about someone, but the name we know is who they really are! There's thousands of Andys out there, only one Skizzleman! And some people are more into their character - alter ego - than others. It's not a fake personality, but only presenting parts of their personality and those parts are heightened. It just fits for these bright entertaining personalities to have a crazy gamer name!
4:52 Iskall is Iskall. Awww.
Gosh, I hope they begin to collab again. I really miss them on HC together. Mumbo & Iskall have got that magic chemistry that neither of them share with anyone else and it’s been sorely lacking since mid season 7.
*****
This was one of your best interviews. Mumbo is endlessly interesting with many facets. I really enjoyed hearing more about the biking - I can’t believe Vicky’s third time on a bike was biking across Europe.
What a feeling to have your partner alongside for the ride, literally.
I’m also thankful to Mumbo for being so vulnerable with sharing his food addiction struggles and how he tried to gamify it. I hope he’s in a better place now but that’s a constant thorn in your side when you need to eat to live. :(
Lastly, hearing a little more about the values Mumbo has made him more of a real person to me. I know that feeling where you want to be doing something with your life that aligns with your values.
It’s what propelled me out of the oil & gas industry and into healthcare and I’ve never looked back. Being fulfilled and knowing you make a difference every day through your work is a privilege. I’m glad Mumbo’s got to that point.
Nice to meet ya! I think I like Oli even more than I like Mumbo. What a cool guy
Biking across Europe would be extraordinarily different from biking across the US, especially across places like Arizona, where Imp and Skizz live. In most of Europe, you can go 20 km in any direction, and you'll go through a village or two. In the US, you could go 50 miles and maybe pass an abandoned gas station.
The food addiction talk was so relatable and real. Thank you Oli for the vulnerability. ❤
That scene from Signs was brilliant because it didn’t tell you what was going on, not just downstairs, but even right next to you. By having our view frozen in place with no movement, it gave us the experience of being so scared that we were unable to move.
i don’t know if i could love mumbo’s energy more :) he’s a little bit giggly and goofy, but at the same time you can tell how introspective and genuine he is. i so appreciated his reflections on ‘hating everything you make’ and some other little clips where he’s talked about his struggles with the concept of creativity. genuinely, with some of the insight and knowledge he’s shared, i can hardly believe that he’s only 28! i am genuinely such a fan of his films and photography (for many reasons other than the fact that he is mumbo haha) and he’s such an inspiration of mine :) thank you, imp and skizz, for these episodes!
but mumbo also has the most calming voice/accent so maaaybe i’m a little biased hahah (i could listen to him read the terms and conditions of a chromebook and would do it willingly)
Excellent episode today. Mumbo is such an awesome character and to hear his story and see a more vulnerable side is such an epic privilege. Also I just wanna say thank you for the trust you have shown us with sharing your first names, I know that's not a decision you made lightly and I can appreciate the value you both put on your privacy.
Well said!
Mumbo talking about food addiction hit home hard for me. It isn't something many people realize is a thing unless they're desperately trying to fight against it, and man can it all come snowballing back down on you in a heart beat.
Holy cow my mind is blown right now :o
Edit: this is wild, i originally found out about impulse through mumbo, then skizz through impy. Now learning their irl names through mumbo is just so ironic
WHAT?!? I finally learned Impy's first name.
Skizz is lying about his first name! We all know, that when he did his name reveal, with an amazing cake. His first name is Coach!
Guys, this episode is giving me the FEELS. Thank you. ❤
I like seeing the other side of Mumbo it gives us a more in depth perspective of Mumbo.
Man Mumbo is like mirroring what I want to do, love photography/videography, but I never like what I post because there’s so much I could do better, love going out in nature, and biking, and I love food, maybe I should look into this TH-cam stuff more seriously
Oli, Vicky, Andy, And Scott grand canyon trip vlog incoming!
SCOTT? Not Steve? Oh, man, my brain just glitched... if I ever learn Tango's real name, I might just have a full stroke 😂
I never really knew the difference between cinematography and camera operation, but as Oli explained it, I realize it's quite similar to game development. Camera operators are like the programmers/developers, while cinematographers are like the game designers.
Thomas. 🤯 😆
Incidentally, Tango has ALWAYS been my favourite Hermit. 😀
I love Mumbo so much he was the first person I’ve EVER subscribed to. I started watching him when I was five years old, he’s helped me through so much and I’ve been with him since the beginning
I’ll always love hearing people talk about their passions, it brings me so much joy just to hear how happy and enthusiastic Mumbo is when talking about cinematography and his other hobbies! Brilliant episode as always, I can see Imp and Skizz both becoming more comfortable and natural with each episode, it’s a lovely journey to see
I've never shared this but your conversation about creativity was very nice to hear. I've spent years wanting to write this story that I've had in my head for even longer. Every time I go to write something down though I begin to doubt every word, every story line, and I become so frustrated and scared that I have never written down a word despite having so many in my head. While I can't make any promises I do really want to write something down now after hearing the conversation so thank you
I'm so glad I stumbled upon your podcast. I binged listed to like 20 episode this past week, and it's been amazing so far. You two are amazing and every second is a pleasure. 😊
I always saw myself as a creative person and I have these massive projects I want to start and then don't because I'm scared I'm gonna hate it.
Seeing that some of my favourite CC also struggle with this definitely helps❤❤
Finally caught up with this. It's amazing to see how many different cameras there are and to really learn what each one does as it's not something I really ever thought to research.
Mumbo's attempt to avoid unhealthy stuff by having to donate to a charity if he ate it really did scream "this is a bad way of going about food" when I saw his tweets at that time. Food addiction is as hard a thing to deal with like drugs/alcohol are, and as a food addict myself I can understand his struggle. I appreciate him talking about it so openly in this podcast.
one thing I noticed in the behind the scenes of "The Making of The Steal" on the Kris and Jack channel, is that Oli's house had hooks, rig set ups and clips in the ceiling and so on that most people do not have. That was when I realized this guy certainly is ALL IN and I was just so impressed with that little glimpse. I have been looking forward to this conversation for a long time! Thanks Imp & Skizz for giving him the spotlight.
the talk of the creative process was so interesting! im not into film, but i write and it goes exactly the way mumbo says lol before you start its beautiful, then you hate it, then you like it, then you hate it again and eventually its beautiful again. great episode!
Andy and Scott.
Reminds me, I saw someone who decided to fan cast the Life Series. Picking out actors to play each person based on appearance, acting experience and vibes. And the actor chosen to play Skizz was Andrew Scott, known for playing Moriarty in BBC’s Sherlock.
And incase you wanted to know, Impulse was chosen to be played by Jack Black and Mumbo played by Benedict Cumberbatch.
ooh! where could i find this fan cast?
@@petra._ It was on Tumblr but I didn’t save the link. I did however come up with my own that I saved on the notes app on my phone. Here you go:
Scott - Bradley James
If Jimmy looked at all like Colin Morgan I would bring Merthur back meshing it with the Flower Husbands.
Skizz - Andrew Scott
I saw someone else do this as a fan cast and it was just too perfect. I mean they have similar looks and I feel like Andrew Scott can perfectly play Skizz when he goes a bit mad and his more heartwarming moments. Also, Skizz’s real name is Andy and Impulse’s real name is Scott. Andrew Scott is the true Imp & Skizz actor.
Scar - George Robinson
I wanted it to be an actor who uses a wheelchair because that representation can be important. And he does look a decent amount like Scar if a bit younger.
Grian - Freddie Highmore
I feel like he is capable of doing the darker stuff as well as the more light hearted stuff that would come with this role. And just general vibes.
Ren - David Tennant
Ren would sometimes do some Scottish accents when acting so it would be nice to see David Tennant using his real accent rather than putting on an English one like he often has to.
Joel - Paul Rudd
Etho - Jeremy Renner
Paul Rudd and Jeremy Renner are bros irl and from what I understand about their dynamic, it really fits with the Boat Boys, even if the ages are quite off.
Jimmy - Thomas Brodie-Sangster
I’m thinking a bit more of baby faced Jimmy in terms of the similarities of their looks. But I can also very much picture Brodie-Sangster playing the frustration of the Canary Curse very well.
Martyn - Leonardo DiCaprio
Leonardo has the range to do all the acting Martyn’s character would have to do. And I think he sort of has the look to pull it off.
Tango - Stanley Tucci
I’ve begun to notice all the ages are off. But I just love Stanley Tucci and would love to see him with fiery hair.
BDubs - ???
I originally had BDubs cast as Jim Howick. Purely because they share super similar vibes with their personalities. But someone pointed out to me that BDubs is mixed middle-eastern. And that if I was going for the wheelchair representation with Scar I should probably also do that with BDubs. Honestly, I don’t know enough mixed middle-eastern actors to choose here and I got kinda stumped. Some names I went over but none quite fit were Riz Ahmed, Oscar Isaac and Jon Bernthal. If you have any better suggestions I’m all ears.
Impulse - Jack Black
Fight me. Jack Black has raaaange. He can do anything. And I really feel like he could play Impulse really well. Especially with fake horns to complete the look. He would rock them.
Cleo - Jodie Comer
I feel like she can really encapsulate Cleo’s slightly arsonistic, revenge oriented side of her personality. Though makeup and a wig would definitely be necessary.
BigB - Lakeith Stanfield
I’m imaging the change in him when he’s the boogie being like Lakeith’s scene in Get Out.
Mumbo - Benedict Cumberbatch
I saw a picture of him with Mumbo’s stache and that sold it for me.
Lizzie - Kiera Nightley
Vibes.
Pearl - Jenna Coleman
She definitely has the ability to be 5am Pearl as well as just normal Pearl. And I can imagine her telling me to clean my room.
The Watchers - Brian Blessed
I just love his voice.
@@yusaki8064 thank you so much!! this is so kind of you!! i so agree with your bigb reasoning with the "get out" example! also ren as david tenant is somehow so perfect ahahah
@@petra._ I already had this all in the notes app on my phone. So it was just a copy paste. If you have any better suggestions for BDubs I’d be happy to hear your ideas.
@@yusaki8064 i was thinking about that one for a good ten minutes yesterday! bdubs is so unique in his comedic style and facial expressions/features
Skizz, you are a very good interviewer. I'm so impressed with your empathy and ability to direct conversation when needed.
As an artist, i can confirm that the creative process does bring pain but also not all pieces are perfect. Ive been enjoying this podcast very much while i sit here and paint! ❤
They are all so genuine and adorable, I just love the energy
As someone who as a small amount of experience, messing with a gimbal while someone anxiously says "Dont break it!" is such a common experience and so funny, because half the time that's what's going through my head as well, even though I know I'm not going to break it
This was a fantastic one. To see how excited and passionate mumbo is about his film making is inspiring. Your all so creative and it's so lovely to see you guys chatting and letting us ( the audience) into your lives. Thankyou again for another wonderful podcast. ❤
as soon as Mumbo said "Ukraine" my heart skipped a beat (in a best way possible), this means So much💛
I love the interviews you guys do. They're super well done!
As someone just out of college, trying to find my way and which passions to focus on, it’s really comforting to know that someone who I thought had their life together is also going from a ‘post grad crisis.’ Your 20s are for learning about the world and yourself ❤
I love hearing Oli talk about his videography and photography. It’s amazing seeing the other side of Mumbo. It’s also fascinating.
I just want to let Mumbo know, it means a lot to me that he talked a bit about his issues dealing with food addiction, as he calls it. And it helps me to know, that someone as great as Mumbojumbo is also dealing with the same issues I have.
Talking about the creation process really spoke to me. I make cover songs on another channel and every time I start making one, I end up hating the finished product. So much that I don’t like it when my friends and family watch it when I’m in the room and I refuse to listen to most of the songs that I’ve covered. Not because I’m not proud of what I’ve made, I’m very proud, but like Mumbo said, it never lives up to how you see it in your head. I’m very much ok with the fact that I hate everything I create, but it is extremely comforting to know that I’m not the only one. Thank you for this one❤️
Seeing Mumbo this happy made me happy too. Thank you for inviting him on!
Thank you so much for a phenomenal episode! Love the work you guys do!
Yay part two!!! 🎉🎉
I listened to the entirety of this on Spotify then turned around and came and rewatched the whole thing on TH-cam for optimal enjoyment
Amazing episode! This is one that I can see myself rewatching many times.
Oh my gosh I enjoyed this so much!
Thank you Skizz, Imp and Ollie for such a great chat!
Oli is such an inspiration, from the cinematics to the way he does things and acts as a person. Really commend him for opening up on this episode.
I'm so happy that we finally get to hear Mumbo ramble on about his interests, I remember him apologizing on his endbusting streams for going off on tangents like this and I always felt bad for him. But I'm glad he gets to talk about it now!
Another amazing podcast for my Friday. Y’all may not be philosophers, but each podcast you touch on one part of the Philosophy of Life, and you do it in a way that everyone can understand and take into their lives. Thank you.
I can see Skizz as Andy, but Scott??? Have you ever got confused with Smajor? I love this podcast so much. I always learn something new and get inspired to do things. Thank you guys
I like the way Mumbo talked about creativity and the creative people think.
Nope. You are Impulse and Skizz. Mumbo and Oli are two different people, twins, perhaps with different passions.😅 great episode fellas!
great episode! literally all of the topics discussed really hit home with me, so thank you all so much for sharing your experiences
Now for the rest of the Hermits! Thank you for putting this together
This was such a wholesome episode to watch. Thank you for the great content. I love learning about people's creative and thought processes. Mumbo Jumbos worldview is super interesting, insightful and also inspiring.
Looking forward to listening to this on my way home today!
I absolutely adore you all, and I love hearing your backstories! Feels like a peek behind the curtain! Thanks for letting us into your worlds
Wow! This was such an awesome episode of your podcast. I loved seeing this side of Mumbo.
I've never really given it a thought, but you guys will always be Imp and Skizz in my mind. It's the same for people I know from online, with whom I've always used their nicks. It just makes sense
Gentlemen, this was, absolutely, spiffing.
Absolutely terrific, wholesome and entertaining content.
So excited for this one!!!
3:26 - 6:00 for the discussion of Impulse and Skizz's IRL names and if the three of them use people's IRL names or their screen names more
I procrastinated watching this video a whole day because I don’t want to get to the end (similar to tv series finales), but I literally couldn’t wait any longer! So excited!! Would love to see Mumbo (or Oli!) on the podcast again in the future!!
Around 52 minutes Oli explains so well the mind of a creative and I believe all creatives need to watch this message... regularly!!!!
You guys are doing great on the podcasts. Love you guys can pursue another passion. you are so well spoken and kind gentleman. I'm Enjoying learning about the hermits, and seeing who you all are as people. Really eye opening. Thank you for all the time you're putting in here on TH-cam. Hope you are proud of everything you've accomplished so far.
Amazing bit of insight into Mumbo's life. I really enjoyed this interview and am glad he did it.
1:03:35 I'm listening to it now after traveling around the world for almost 2 years and coming back home and settling in a place again, I've been asking myself the same question, because having a no-sense of direction is so daunting whilst traveling it was a simple straight forward line, from one city to another, from one country to the next one. Now it's been almost a year and I am still, at times, finding myself questioning. Traveling really opened my eyes.
Never would have guessed your first names!! I'll stick with your yt names.
Love you guys and I love Mumbo. Thank you all for this
Your message and especially what Mumbo said at 50:15 to 57:30 was probably the most important message I have heard this year and I believe it is incredibly important to share this with other creators of any type.
I don't usually comment, or open up about things in this way, however this is an issue I have been struggling with for a few years now.
And it has only gotten worse. I produce music and I often have new cool ideas. Then I start working on them a little bit and I start loving it. But most of the concepts I make I put off and never finish, because I am aware the realisation of it into something, I would be happy with, is so difficult and painful.
Having the project just sit in your head is so much easier.
I always create something new, leave it behind, because I feel like it is just not what I had wished for.
Yet since it is my absolute biggest dream of creating music and performing it in front of a crowd, not having something to show for it every month is very frustrating and I have felt like an absolute failure. Not to anyone else, but myself.
Your message has opened my eyes to this being a common occurrence.
If any of you reading this are in a similar situation, I wish you all the best.
It's okay to make something, that is not perfect. In your eyes it will most likely not be, while you're actively working on it.
But you should continue anyways and maybe you'll think it's perfect in a month or a year and will want to imitate, what you have done afterwards.
And if you just think it was just okay, that's fine too. You will learn from what you dislike and do it better next time.
Like Mumbo said, this is the process of creating and it is not an easy one, since you connect it so much with emotions.
I will definitely take this message to heart.
Thanks
