This is so perfectly worded. I love Brittany’s content and it brings out the silly inner child in me and you’ve totally hit the nail on the head with that

“When I go on these rants, I wonder how many people I lose” brittney i hope you realize how important it is to have these conversations. I’m a 23 year old girl who feels like she’s losing her mind every day and i cannot explain how therapeutic it is for me to hear you talk about those topics
literally my favorite part of this podcast is when brittany gets philosophical because these are the exact conversations i have with my friends, it feels like a conversation i would have with a friend in a not parasocial way like it feels so deeply real
I feel this. A few months ago I started at a very demanding 9-5 and during my training period I began experiencing panic attacks almost daily because of how overwhelming it was. Brittany's videos are what helped me get through it- I'm not panicky anymore but still love listening to her while I work.
I gotta say, when Brittney was talking about higher education it really hit me. I went to community college right after high school in 2014. I was a shitty student in high school and was no better at community college so I met a boy and dropped out. I was very immature and struggled so much with my interpersonal relationships and I fell into a drug addiction (thankfully just weed, not something hard like heroin or cocaine). And I “wasted” a lot of time just being a pothead with little to no direction in life and it hurt my self esteem. Well last year, I finally had enough and I went back to school but this time I did what I always wanted to and decided to enroll in a Vet Assistant program. I was a very diligent student and I really enjoyed it so I am now in the veterinary technician program. I have truly changed for the better because I was forced to work in a stressful team environment doing something I really love and care about which is helping animals. Now I have been sober for over 2 months, I am single but happy with myself, and I am one of the top students in my class. It took me until I was 27 years to get it, but I am so happy now. Higher education in a field you are passionate about is really a blessing.
Omg that's wild! I met a boy in college back in 2016, dropped out, and was addicted weed and xanax. I'm 27 now too, and got clean of xanax, ended the unhealthy relationship, and am now studying to be a vet tech! Weird but cool to think someone is having such a similar life experience!
i am proud of you 🫶 i worked as a receptionist in a vet clinic and i have SOOOOO much respect for vet techs & vets. That job was emotionally too much for me to handle, and like i said, i was just a receptionist. The ppl who stick with those jobs are truly angels
im going into vetmed as well! the amount of school i have ahead of me is so daunting but it feels nice to have a goal to work towards. so happy for you!!!
i adore that brittany is able to speak to a more casual audience while incorporating serious topics!! it's incredibly funny to be discussing lovecraftian horrors and nihilism while describing if they're slay or not, but it's also such a skill to be able to communicate a complicated idea with slang and everyday speech. idk she's so goddamn smart and its truly a treat to be able to hear her insight into things... along with the horny ramblings about cosplayers that remind me she's just like us frfr
since i graduated from college, this is the closest i’ve gotten to feeling intellectually stimulated in conversation since then, which i love. thank you madam president. love u.
Briittany would legit be an ideal college professor on certain subjects. When she gets rolling on topics she loves and spits out knowledge in a serious, intellectual manner... I find myself sitting here listening to her, taking notes like a hungry student lol. And then what makes it better is when she randomly dissolves back into her chaotic comedic goblin mode and says absurd shit while laughing at herself. She bounces and forth so fluidly that it makes listening to her literally talk about anything not only fun but extremely intriguing, and it makes me want to engage back. I love it. I love her. I love these podcasts.
Brittany genuinely helps my anxiety when she talks about the universe bc why am I freaking out over nothing when in the grand scheme of things I’m a grain of sand
Brittany has such a range, I cannot wait to see her become more successful!! It is so difficult to create content that is enriching and deep but also light-hearted and more like a conversation with a friend than just watching someone talk, and she does it effortlessly.
i went through a period where i kinda lost my personality and you're bringing it back outta me, thanks for giving me something to listen to while i play video games.
literally same. the past two years i lost all the creativity, nerdiness and even little cringe that made me SO me. I've been craving normality and acceptance my whole life and now that i have it i don't like it but i can't bring myself to be my old self. Watching Brittany being so free and interesting and like, full of thoughts is really healing me
Brittany you are the voice our generation needs. thank you for talking about the power of human connection, the importance of pursuing higher education if only to grow and learn as a person and not just to get a job. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Your confidence, eloquence, moral compass, intelligence, sense of humor, and humble self-awareness are all top tier. You are an amazing storyteller and teacher. I am so excited to see all the great things you’ll continue to accomplish; you give me hope for the future and are a positive inspiring influence to our younger folks. THANK YOU BRITTANY!!!
I’m an archaeology student and what Brittany was saying about having these kind of conversations within an academic setting it so true! I have lab sessions weekly and whilst we’re doing our work we always just chat about our studies and how it’s so interwoven with humanity. I do a lot of early human stuff, that’s where my interest lies and it’s so so so thrilling pondering when we first became aware of ourselves not as animals but as humans. To be able to look at the animals we evolved from and say, ‘yeah that’s not me’ I love it so much. A lot of philosophy goes into archaeology too I’d argue because at our core we’re trying to decipher human behaviour from thousands and millions of years ago. I love my degree ahah
NO BRITTANY YOU CANT SAY THAT ABOUT ARRIVAL Amy’s character is truly so incredibly intelligent the people she was working with were the idiots that didn’t understand how to communicate with them. She’s a linguistic professor and she was so iconic while speaking to the aliens. AND THE STORYLINE? The end gets me every time. You NEED to rewatch for sureeee
Currently pursuing my PhD and I completely agree about the need for academic discourse. Especially with everything happening in the world, it is so nice to be around people my age with the same values and yearn for discussion :)
Brittany, you don’t understand. I literally re-watched the arrival today after not watching it for like 3 years and the movie changed my life. I completely understand it differently now.😭 and for you to make this podcast episode today is wild
girl arrival is so good, after watching it i immediately went to reddit for analyses and explanations of the things i didnt get and everything made so much sense. it's definitely a movie that not everyone will get the first time.
YEP. YEP. This is what I was thinking when she was talking about it. The point of her writing "HUMAN" on the board was not her trying to speak to them per-se and expect them to understand, but to teach them the basics of our written language, because the whole movie is basically about learning the written language of the aliens, and how that would work not only cross culture, but across planets. Its one of the more refreshing alien movies I've seen in ages because it really does raise a good question - how does one learn a language of a species that is so completely different from you in every way that there is no common ground to start with like there is between cultures and countries.
I could talk for hours about live music and jazz. I watched a band do a tribute cover of Dreams by The Cranberries a few years ago and I couldn't BLINK I was so moved. That level of emotion and talent and passion is so magnetic and contagious. Jazz especially is incredible to watch live, to see the musicians weaving the song together and apart and flowing with one another. There's not another more human genre of music. It's raw emotion expressed in this highly complex talent, it's the human brain in sound form. I LOVE that you talk about stuff like this, Brittany. It opens people's eyes to new things and provides a space for people to express their passions. LOVE U MADAM PRES
“it shouldn’t have to effect you personally to give a shit about an issue” “he also says all the time “solidarity/being an ally cost nothing” and wow ya know -Brittany Broski 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
I love me some Broski... and i teared up several times during the existence "rant". I lost my Baby Boy, recently... and the idea that we are here simply to exist and experience, love and be loved... that has been the notion that I have clung, DESPERATELY, to. His wasnt a long life, but it was meaningful and SO full of love and joyous existence. So, as devastated as I am, I am trying to remain, instead, grateful for the time I was blessed with his presence. His impact. His existence.
I’ve had two miscarriages, 14 week twins and a 10 week single baby. I find some solace in the fact that women have been losing pregnancies or infants since the dawn of time. It’s a deep ancient pain that we bear together. I’m not the first woman to cry over my children, and in the future I can help other women who are going through loss. It’s important to talk with other women about it, especially older women. Almost every woman I know has lost a pregnancy or infant. And it’s something that’s not talked about, so we have to reach out for connection. Most people don’t know how to comfort or talk about loss.
@zoeyr2739 I agree, completely. I hate this pain... and I am grateful for the connection it brings me. I feel closer to my fellow woman and the mothers of nature that long for the safety of their young. I am not alone... none of us are. Truly, there is solice in that. Mothers. Bringers of life and togetherness. In this, together. 💚
Words can't express how happy I am that the podcast comes out at the beginning of the week so I can cope with it right away, thank you our great supreme leader 🙏
I feel like Brittany would love The Magnus Archives. It's cosmic/Lovecraftian horror and this defiently isn't me just wanting to hear her opinion on it at all ahaaha 👀 Also as an animation student the Dracula Shrek animated series would be something that would fill me with whimsy to work on
I can't even bring myself to watch the Hozier interview because I think I will just sob the entire time. I saw Hozier two weeks ago and I can't even bring myself to listen to his music because his concert was so life changing. The thought of my two favorite people speaking with each other makes me want to crawl into a hole and never come out!
I cannot express how much I love when the podcast starts to go into philosophy/existential topics. It is so refreshing to listen to someone who thinks deeply and wants to be open to talking about things that are not just surface level
I graduated uni through the pandemic and it absolutely destroyed my academic tendencies :( I work now and it's simply so much easier to be able to just clock out of your duties and REST. As a student I felt like I should always be studying. Still, I deeply miss my university... the vibes of your first year are just so precious! I'll treasure those memories forever
Half of my uni experience was through the pandemic as well and it definitely sucks that I didn’t get as much out of it as I hoped so I totally feel you. The past two years since I graduated I’ve been recovering from massive burn out but just like you I miss university so much. I’m finally coming around to doing a masters and I’m actually so excited about it. Just continuing education for education’s sake I think it will be nice :’) I hope you fall in love with academia again bc we both deserve to be our coolest smartest selves (WITH INTENTIONAL REST OFC)
This reminds me of a song called In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel. It reminds me of what Brittany was saying about how there was such a small chance of any of us existing in this moment, yet we do and it is earth-shatteringly beautiful. We try as hard as we can to hold on but it is fleeting, and that's such a huge part of the beauty of it all. I encourage everyone to look up the lyrics it is an incredibly well written song.
I was raised in a small community that did not give me the access to cultural differences but when I went to college, and yes even my local college, it was such an eye opening experience. I learned so much about diversity and ethics and just how to be a more perceptive person that the debt I now have as a masters student, doesn’t really feel heavy. I feel that college is an opportunity that truly opened my eyes to so many different avenues and it needs to be more accessible and accepted as an option.
As someone who has spent a number of years in mental facilities, I regret to inform you that it is actually crazy ppl in there, not ppl awakened to some cosmic truth
One time when I was in the hospital (for mental reasons) this one bitch stole the bracelet I made in arts and crafts. Got it back while she was getting hit with booty juice. Still have it but I'm still mad lol
Hearing Brittany talk about the duality of life gives me so much hope and appreciation for the life I'm living. Human connection, appreciation, and kindness can get you through so many dark things that life inevitably has to offer. I'm so glad I am alive at the same time as her.
I’ve learned more listening to you than in my 4 years in college. Granted, Covid hit my sophomore year, but listening to you speak about such important things with this one-of-a-kind, relatable, and humble eloquence - it’s indescribable. This is the only content I’ve seen on social media in a long time - if ever - that actually has helped me feel fulfilled, at peace, connected - myself. It gives me hope. Thank you.
I am (hopefully) starting a 4 year Art history with Sociology degree after a 6 year hiatus from education. It'll be my first college experience and I just wanted to say it's partly to do with watching your videos and hearing your intelligent take on a lot of social issues. I thoroughly enjoy them every time. So thanks x
I love waking up to a new video from you on tuesdays and seeing you in your muumuu. Makes me feel like we just woke up from a sleepover and I'm so ready to sit up and listen to the things you have to say
Loved the podcast as always but I just gotta say that you would LOVE Arrival if you watched it properly! It is literally made for people like you, there is so much depth to its storytelling and beautiful themes about the finiteness of life and the human existence, the importance of language and communication. Make fun of literally any other alien movie but this one, it does an excellent job subverting the expectations of an alien horror. It won so many awards for good reason in my opinion.
brittany im a linguist here and im BEGGING you on my hands and knees to rewatch arrival not from a horror perspective, but from a more cerebral perspective. you will absolutely love it. also look more into the sapir-whorf hypothesis which the movie is based on
I was at ACL and the Mumford and Sons cover was LIFE CHANGINGGGG. I am so glad you talked about it because it was one of the best moments I’ve ever witnessed in live music
If anyone hasn't seen Arrival, PLEASE go watch it!! It's an incredible film, and there's a reason why it's won so many awards. Genuinely one of my favorite movies ever.
Yes!! It’s my favorite movie! It makes me cry every time and makes me think so much about the beauty of life. With how much Brittany loves poignant and philosophical art, I just know she would LOVE Arrival. Made me sad she hasn’t actually experienced the true depth of this film. And it’s directed by the master - Denis Villeneuve! It’s practically made for her!!!
While Brittany was talking about the meaning of life, why we were put here, and existentialism, I paused and thought about it to myself and came up with the conclusion that our "purpose" or our meaning to life is to love and be loved. Then I unpaused it and not 12 seconds later at 23:44 she said exactly that. I love this podcast. One episode we're thirsting over Call of Duty characters and the next we're talking about existential dread and the meaning of life. Truly iconic.
This conversation was relevant to me. I’ve been feeling so burnt out in school but as soon as Brittany turns to education I’m all ears. It reminds me I do love to learn, it’s just the structure and deliverance that I struggle with and I can learn to develop healthy learning habits. Thank you as always babes. Ur the bestest ever
My favorite ones are the ones where she’s wearing no makeup, hair tied up, and in a moo moo. ❤ Feels like I’m sitting and chatting with a friend. (Because I also have no makeup on, hair tied back, and in my comfy clothes.)
My delulu ass is so convinced Brittany and I would be such good friends if we met😭I love the way her brain works and I feel like I could have such a good deep and existential conversation with her
For anyone into Lovecraftian horror, the video game Dredge is super fun! You're basically a fisherman who goes to these islands, and you slowly come to realize that sometimes the fish you catch...aren't normal. And of course, the people of your town also have some...quirks that make you suspicious of their true nature. Plus, if you stay out too late, you start to see some strange stuff! Gameplay is super easy and relaxing, perfect spooky game for eternally spooky vibes :)
Brittany is such an important person to me. I’ve only been watching for a few days but I can’t believe how truly in touch with herself and her own soul.
I fully agree with the sentiment on college. I fully hated some of my university classes and profs and especially did not love how expensive it was. But the people I met, the things I learned, the maturing and growing up it helped me through, those are experiences I would never regret
1000% agree with the college discussion. I actually tried saying the same exact thing to one of my friends and she responded with “not everyone should go to college, we need trade workers” and I get that, however, there are certain lessons in growth and worldview that are hard to obtain when not attending secondary education. I often notice a genuine difference in worldview between those who engaged in secondary education versus those who don’t. I really feel sorry for people who are unable to receive that opportunity or for those who chose not to.
I was one of the ones who didn't go and my partner had explained that exact thing to me before and it's nice to see others say it too cuz it really does make a lot of sense.
If Brittany makes an entire episode about Nardwaur I’d watch that over a million times. Loved Nardwaur since the early 90s, he’s such an inspiration and amazing person
The argument that none of this matters makes me feel so ALIVE please please never stop getting philosophical on this platform, cannot express how much I love this podcast thank you madam president!!
Arrival is actually one of my favourite movies, I really encourage you to rewatch it now. Watching it again being older really struck me differently. It perhaps brought a tear to mine eye.
I work for a non-profit that coaches at-risk community college students, and we are constantly trying to tell high school seniors and current college students about the value add of college. So I really appreciate hearing you talk about the same things I’m trying to convince these kids every day! Knowledge is power. ✊🏻
"They're listening to argue back" is such a valid point when we talk about the information we get from the internet and how people react to it. Having in-person discussions about, for example, the toll international events and the balance of human existence, is so important because it does not allow anybody to hide behind screen or a comment section.
22:38 Brittany you are a philosopher, you’re someone who desires to live life to its fullest and experience everything you can and those experiences shape your worldview. To me that’s as philosophical as it gets.
20:00-20:45 thats exactly how I see life, it's beautiful 💜 20:50- the ability to think, experiencing the universe, and the purpose of life; made me cry 😭
I think what’s nice about music is everyone can appreciate it broadly and there’s a type for everyone to find a preference. I can appreciate proficiency in music theory and instrumentation but when I’m driving down the highway, I don’t want to listen to jazz, I want to sing Sabrina Carpenter’s lyrics.
YOU ALWAYS SUMMARIZE THE WAY I FEEL SO WELL. trying to explain to my sister why birdbox was such a unique and extremely terrifying kind of horror. She is someone who is more for the gory kind of characters, vs. my appreciation for media that can rely on more than just the general human fears. something beyond that
I’ve seen Brittany around the internet, but I’ve never heard her speak on anything besides in humorous convos. She’s so funny and seems so lovely and kind. I loved listening to this podcast, it was like listening to a goofy, smart friend. ❤️
Brittany you would unironically love Arrival 😭 it's so good, emotional, it's about love and knowledge and the psychological terror that comes with being a human.
I have literally been OBSESSED with lovecrafts stories ever since I read them in middle school and I’m so glad someone is talking about this. I could go on and on and on about this type of horror it just does something to me
i actually studied the arrival movie in an english course once and it’s now one of my favorite movies. in the class we were studying time and the concept of time in media and life and essentially the circles that amy adams was drawing was their way of communicating bc they see time as a cyclical thing rather than a linear thing that we humans see it as (with a beginning and end like brittany was saying). so they essentially can see all of time at once and don’t really have a sense of past or future. that’s why amy adams had to learn their “language” of circles in order to communicate with them and understand what they wanted. and then she becomes fluent in this language and eventually learns how to see time like that as well??? And that’s what all the “flashbacks” were. they were actually just here being able to see into different moments of her life, both past and present 🤯🤯
I feel so comforted and grounded by Brittney's words when it comes to the human experience. Not only do I have very similar values when it comes to valuing life and love and respect, but I also am in awe of how she can articulate things in a way that is so powerful and profound. It never feels preachy or pushy, but rather coming from the heart and the mind of someone who has so much wisdom to give. I am always moved by your words, and from the bottom of my heart, you move me to be a better communicator and person as a whole. (Plus I love thinking about things beyond comprehension, it make my brain chemicals very happy, so it nice to hear you also like that aspect of lovecraftian horror)
Listening to Brittany talk about the universe, the scale of it, and how humans react to it is something that honestly brings me so much peace of mind. I have the same thoughts all of the time!! Most of the time I find comfort and love in my understanding of the universe, but sometimes the scale of I can be terrifying! Knowing other girlies think of all this at the same time makes me feel like I’m not crazy! 😂
Brittany: delivers the most heartfelt and beautiful speech about how beautiful life is and that how we're so lucky to be alive the same time as those we love, making me tear up at work Brittany: But I'm just riffin' here.
No cause ur actually saving my life right now Britney I’m so down terribly like my head is so scary rn but u just dropped an episode and now I can take my mind off shit so honestly thank u I love u sm
Sevdaliza is definetly one of the many artists that are barely known, but so incredible in songwriting, production, everything. Brittany, if you notice this comment out of thousands of others, i'd love to recommend her to you, and to everyone reading this. She really changed my life, i'd say the same way Rosalia did.
omg second this comment i love sevdaliza i never seem to come across other fans!! i’m rarely a person who’ll listen to an artists whole discography i just couldn’t get enough of her after ison
@@czworka5022 she’s just got that music that makes you feel it all and ascend. do you have a top song? i stumbled across her video for bluecid on here by chance in 2019 and it’s still gotta be one of my fav songs.
I went to college at BYU (mormon university, i’ve since left the faith) but going there is one of my biggest regrets in life. I started during the pandemic where everything was online. i barely knew my roommates, i didn’t go to in person classes, and it was so isolating. plus, in mormonism, there is such a push to get married young which makes the college experience so much harder. i love hearing brittany talk about college & her experience bc i can get a feel for what college should have been for me without religion interfering.
i went and rewatched the meeting harry styles video after watching the hozier video and i just cried because i felt so happy for you and how far you’ve come. im not usually a commenter but i just wanted to say how much you’ve changed my view of the world and humans and how beautiful it can all be. i look forward to your podcast coming out every week and i am just amazed at how a person can just be so simultaneously hilarious and intelligent and just so multifaceted. love ya brittany 🫶🏻
brittany has held onto something that died in me in high school and I love slowly reviving it through her content
the way you worded it this way made me want to cry 😭 so fucking true, she makes me feel nostalgic

@@slipperybanana_right my social anxiety was amplified by 100 to the point I couldn’t even get out of bed
@@DavidGarcia-xu2ki yup. I didn’t even have bad anxiety!! But it developed FAST after 2020.
literally same. the past two years i lost all the creativity, nerdiness and even little cringe that made me SO me. I've been craving normality and acceptance my whole life and now that i have it i don't like it but i can't bring myself to be my old self. Watching Brittany being so free and interesting and like, full of thoughts is really healing me
Not only is this a Halloween episode of THE Broski Report - but it’s also about Lovecraftian horror and Dracula? The girls are eating good today
👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
GIRL DINNER! GIIRRRRRRL DINNEEEEER
I needed the college talk thank you brittany
Brittany you are the voice our generation needs. thank you for talking about the power of human connection, the importance of pursuing higher education if only to grow and learn as a person and not just to get a job. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Except when she chooses to ignore an active genocide
@@molly8726yes that puts a rlly bad taste in my mouth☹️
Your confidence, eloquence, moral compass, intelligence, sense of humor, and humble self-awareness are all top tier. You are an amazing storyteller and teacher. I am so excited to see all the great things you’ll continue to accomplish; you give me hope for the future and are a positive inspiring influence to our younger folks. THANK YOU BRITTANY!!!
Couldn’t of said it better
I’m an archaeology student and what Brittany was saying about having these kind of conversations within an academic setting it so true! I have lab sessions weekly and whilst we’re doing our work we always just chat about our studies and how it’s so interwoven with humanity. I do a lot of early human stuff, that’s where my interest lies and it’s so so so thrilling pondering when we first became aware of ourselves not as animals but as humans. To be able to look at the animals we evolved from and say, ‘yeah that’s not me’ I love it so much. A lot of philosophy goes into archaeology too I’d argue because at our core we’re trying to decipher human behaviour from thousands and millions of years ago. I love my degree ahah
Brittany jumping from unserious chaotic mania to calm completely serious discussion on the human existence is why she’s so legendary
ugh literally was going to comment this, she’s so talented lol
NO BRITTANY YOU CANT SAY THAT ABOUT ARRIVAL Amy’s character is truly so incredibly intelligent the people she was working with were the idiots that didn’t understand how to communicate with them. She’s a linguistic professor and she was so iconic while speaking to the aliens. AND THE STORYLINE? The end gets me every time. You NEED to rewatch for sureeee
NO FR SHE NEEDS A REWATCH ITS MY FAVORITE MOVIE
THANK YOU. Arrival is a stunning film! So much depth and humanity.
i was thinking the same. it’s a beautiful film. i think she would actually enjoy this it seems totally up her alley.
I LOVE Amy in that movie. She is a gem.
Agreed!!!
Currently pursuing my PhD and I completely agree about the need for academic discourse. Especially with everything happening in the world, it is so nice to be around people my age with the same values and yearn for discussion :)
Me too! Let’s do research on the education levels of Broski nation?
Brittany, you don’t understand. I literally re-watched the arrival today after not watching it for like 3 years and the movie changed my life. I completely understand it differently now.😭 and for you to make this podcast episode today is wild
girl arrival is so good, after watching it i immediately went to reddit for analyses and explanations of the things i didnt get and everything made so much sense. it's definitely a movie that not everyone will get the first time.
YEP. YEP. This is what I was thinking when she was talking about it. The point of her writing "HUMAN" on the board was not her trying to speak to them per-se and expect them to understand, but to teach them the basics of our written language, because the whole movie is basically about learning the written language of the aliens, and how that would work not only cross culture, but across planets. Its one of the more refreshing alien movies I've seen in ages because it really does raise a good question - how does one learn a language of a species that is so completely different from you in every way that there is no common ground to start with like there is between cultures and countries.
I could talk for hours about live music and jazz. I watched a band do a tribute cover of Dreams by The Cranberries a few years ago and I couldn't BLINK I was so moved. That level of emotion and talent and passion is so magnetic and contagious. Jazz especially is incredible to watch live, to see the musicians weaving the song together and apart and flowing with one another. There's not another more human genre of music. It's raw emotion expressed in this highly complex talent, it's the human brain in sound form. I LOVE that you talk about stuff like this, Brittany. It opens people's eyes to new things and provides a space for people to express their passions. LOVE U MADAM PRES
Here's the tribute cover for anyone interested: th-cam.com/video/mw2l5iBKQyc/w-d-xo.html
Listening to this like it's my bedtime stories.
Tucked in tight, posted up like nosferatu, eyes shut, fan drying the ol' undercarriage.

my favorite passtime😩
Underrated comment 🤣🤣
brittany can literally talk about anything and i’m enthralled the entire time. call of duty or philosophy, i’m tuned in
lovecraftian theory, mumus and bowel movements all the way

-Brittany Broski
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
I love me some Broski... and i teared up several times during the existence "rant".
I lost my Baby Boy, recently... and the idea that we are here simply to exist and experience, love and be loved... that has been the notion that I have clung, DESPERATELY, to.
His wasnt a long life, but it was meaningful and SO full of love and joyous existence. So, as devastated as I am, I am trying to remain, instead, grateful for the time I was blessed with his presence. His impact. His existence.
I’ve had two miscarriages, 14 week twins and a 10 week single baby. I find some solace in the fact that women have been losing pregnancies or infants since the dawn of time. It’s a deep ancient pain that we bear together. I’m not the first woman to cry over my children, and in the future I can help other women who are going through loss. It’s important to talk with other women about it, especially older women. Almost every woman I know has lost a pregnancy or infant. And it’s something that’s not talked about, so we have to reach out for connection. Most people don’t know how to comfort or talk about loss.
@zoeyr2739 I agree, completely. I hate this pain... and I am grateful for the connection it brings me. I feel closer to my fellow woman and the mothers of nature that long for the safety of their young. I am not alone... none of us are. Truly, there is solice in that. Mothers. Bringers of life and togetherness. In this, together. 💚
EYES CLOSED, HANDS OFF THE WHEEL, FEET UP ON THE DASHBOARD, GOING 80MPH, LISTENING TO THE BROSKI REPORT
IN AN ACTIVE CAR WRECK, WITH MY LEG CRUSHED, REPORTING FOR DUTY ❤️
Gotta give our supreme leader that watch time at all costs@@Selflicensed
Press on that gas brother 😎
Whenever Brittany speaks about the meaning of life she always makes me cry. Every time.
Words can't express how happy I am that the podcast comes out at the beginning of the week so I can cope with it right away, thank you our great supreme leader 🙏
u talking to her like she's kim jung un is sending me
the way this is so true. this and the ive had it ladies get me out of bed
I feel like Brittany would love The Magnus Archives. It's cosmic/Lovecraftian horror and this defiently isn't me just wanting to hear her opinion on it at all ahaaha 👀
Also as an animation student the Dracula Shrek animated series would be something that would fill me with whimsy to work on
Shrekula
I was literally thinking about s5 magnus archives the entire time
I can't even bring myself to watch the Hozier interview because I think I will just sob the entire time. I saw Hozier two weeks ago and I can't even bring myself to listen to his music because his concert was so life changing. The thought of my two favorite people speaking with each other makes me want to crawl into a hole and never come out!
I cannot express how much I love when the podcast starts to go into philosophy/existential topics. It is so refreshing to listen to someone who thinks deeply and wants to be open to talking about things that are not just surface level
The plot of Arrival is the complete opposite of what Brittany describes which is hilarious 😭
I graduated uni through the pandemic and it absolutely destroyed my academic tendencies :( I work now and it's simply so much easier to be able to just clock out of your duties and REST. As a student I felt like I should always be studying. Still, I deeply miss my university... the vibes of your first year are just so precious! I'll treasure those memories forever
Half of my uni experience was through the pandemic as well and it definitely sucks that I didn’t get as much out of it as I hoped so I totally feel you. The past two years since I graduated I’ve been recovering from massive burn out but just like you I miss university so much. I’m finally coming around to doing a masters and I’m actually so excited about it. Just continuing education for education’s sake I think it will be nice :’) I hope you fall in love with academia again bc we both deserve to be our coolest smartest selves (WITH INTENTIONAL REST OFC)
This reminds me of a song called In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel. It reminds me of what Brittany was saying about how there was such a small chance of any of us existing in this moment, yet we do and it is earth-shatteringly beautiful. We try as hard as we can to hold on but it is fleeting, and that's such a huge part of the beauty of it all. I encourage everyone to look up the lyrics it is an incredibly well written song.
I was raised in a small community that did not give me the access to cultural differences but when I went to college, and yes even my local college, it was such an eye opening experience. I learned so much about diversity and ethics and just how to be a more perceptive person that the debt I now have as a masters student, doesn’t really feel heavy. I feel that college is an opportunity that truly opened my eyes to so many different avenues and it needs to be more accessible and accepted as an option.
As someone who has spent a number of years in mental facilities, I regret to inform you that it is actually crazy ppl in there, not ppl awakened to some cosmic truth
One time when I was in the hospital (for mental reasons) this one bitch stole the bracelet I made in arts and crafts. Got it back while she was getting hit with booty juice. Still have it but I'm still mad lol
What she's describing does happen with some folks though but it's typically as the result of psychedelic drug use and deep introspection
I have had episodes where I was touch and go with reality… I was not enlightened, I needed help.
I'd say it's about half and half. Through my own personal experience in Ontario Canada anyways
“To love and to be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.” -David Viscott
Hearing Brittany talk about the duality of life gives me so much hope and appreciation for the life I'm living. Human connection, appreciation, and kindness can get you through so many dark things that life inevitably has to offer. I'm so glad I am alive at the same time as her.
I’ve learned more listening to you than in my 4 years in college. Granted, Covid hit my sophomore year, but listening to you speak about such important things with this one-of-a-kind, relatable, and humble eloquence - it’s indescribable. This is the only content I’ve seen on social media in a long time - if ever - that actually has helped me feel fulfilled, at peace, connected - myself. It gives me hope. Thank you.
I am (hopefully) starting a 4 year Art history with Sociology degree after a 6 year hiatus from education. It'll be my first college experience and I just wanted to say it's partly to do with watching your videos and hearing your intelligent take on a lot of social issues. I thoroughly enjoy them every time. So thanks x
I love waking up to a new video from you on tuesdays and seeing you in your muumuu. Makes me feel like we just woke up from a sleepover and I'm so ready to sit up and listen to the things you have to say
it’s giving healthy older sister vibes
Loved the podcast as always but I just gotta say that you would LOVE Arrival if you watched it properly! It is literally made for people like you, there is so much depth to its storytelling and beautiful themes about the finiteness of life and the human existence, the importance of language and communication. Make fun of literally any other alien movie but this one, it does an excellent job subverting the expectations of an alien horror. It won so many awards for good reason in my opinion.
AGREED
brittany im a linguist here and im BEGGING you on my hands and knees to rewatch arrival not from a horror perspective, but from a more cerebral perspective. you will absolutely love it. also look more into the sapir-whorf hypothesis which the movie is based on
this episode actually made me cry, because it made me realise how beautiful life truly is
I was at ACL and the Mumford and Sons cover was LIFE CHANGINGGGG. I am so glad you talked about it because it was one of the best moments I’ve ever witnessed in live music
IN BROSKI REPORT WE TRUST, IN OUR SUPREME LEADER WE BELIEVE, HANDS OFF THE WHEEL, 90 IN A SCHOOL ZONE, EYES CLOSED.
If anyone hasn't seen Arrival, PLEASE go watch it!! It's an incredible film, and there's a reason why it's won so many awards. Genuinely one of my favorite movies ever.
Yes!! It’s my favorite movie!
It makes me cry every time and makes me think so much about the beauty of life. With how much Brittany loves poignant and philosophical art, I just know she would LOVE Arrival. Made me sad she hasn’t actually experienced the true depth of this film. And it’s directed by the master - Denis Villeneuve! It’s practically made for her!!!
I was so glad she talked about it, I watched it a couple months ago for the first time and I seriously can not shut up about it 😭😭😭 such a good movie
i love it so much
I need Brittany to know she never loses me at her rants like I don't know what I would do without them 🖐
When she pulled out the wiki page for the alien movie, I got so locked in. I would abosolutely love a regular Broski Movie/Book Report
While Brittany was talking about the meaning of life, why we were put here, and existentialism, I paused and thought about it to myself and came up with the conclusion that our "purpose" or our meaning to life is to love and be loved. Then I unpaused it and not 12 seconds later at 23:44 she said exactly that.
I love this podcast. One episode we're thirsting over Call of Duty characters and the next we're talking about existential dread and the meaning of life. Truly iconic.
This conversation was relevant to me. I’ve been feeling so burnt out in school but as soon as Brittany turns to education I’m all ears. It reminds me I do love to learn, it’s just the structure and deliverance that I struggle with and I can learn to develop healthy learning habits. Thank you as always babes. Ur the bestest ever
Brittany giving me an existential crisis whilst also making me tear up and laugh all within 10 seconds. Ahhh, the pendulum of Broski Report 😌😌😌
this is my favorite podcast since the end of Frenemies. I swear, I’m always starving for Broski content.
Im still mourning the loss of Frenemies 🥲
@@stacylem girl aren’t we all 🫡😞😞😞
My favorite ones are the ones where she’s wearing no makeup, hair tied up, and in a moo moo. ❤
Feels like I’m sitting and chatting with a friend. (Because I also have no makeup on, hair tied back, and in my comfy clothes.)
From the river to the sea 🇵🇸
My delulu ass is so convinced Brittany and I would be such good friends if we met😭I love the way her brain works and I feel like I could have such a good deep and existential conversation with her
For anyone into Lovecraftian horror, the video game Dredge is super fun! You're basically a fisherman who goes to these islands, and you slowly come to realize that sometimes the fish you catch...aren't normal. And of course, the people of your town also have some...quirks that make you suspicious of their true nature. Plus, if you stay out too late, you start to see some strange stuff! Gameplay is super easy and relaxing, perfect spooky game for eternally spooky vibes :)
Is that based off Shadows of Innsmouth?
@@ronxinator9050 I've never played that so idk, this popped up in my steam suggested lol
The way Brittany speaks makes me feel okay about everything going on in the world and in my life.
Brittany is such an important person to me. I’ve only been watching for a few days but I can’t believe how truly in touch with herself and her own soul.
I love that she took the intent of "crazy old man yells at Cloud" and turned it into a whole genre
I fully agree with the sentiment on college. I fully hated some of my university classes and profs and especially did not love how expensive it was. But the people I met, the things I learned, the maturing and growing up it helped me through, those are experiences I would never regret
Eyes closed, air pods in, feet on the dash, brick on the gas pedal on this fine Halloween to listen to the broski report
1000% agree with the college discussion. I actually tried saying the same exact thing to one of my friends and she responded with “not everyone should go to college, we need trade workers” and I get that, however, there are certain lessons in growth and worldview that are hard to obtain when not attending secondary education. I often notice a genuine difference in worldview between those who engaged in secondary education versus those who don’t. I really feel sorry for people who are unable to receive that opportunity or for those who chose not to.
I was one of the ones who didn't go and my partner had explained that exact thing to me before and it's nice to see others say it too cuz it really does make a lot of sense.
20:50 “ponder beyond our means” is such a good way to describe it
If Brittany makes an entire episode about Nardwaur I’d watch that over a million times. Loved Nardwaur since the early 90s, he’s such an inspiration and amazing person
The argument that none of this matters makes me feel so ALIVE please please never stop getting philosophical on this platform, cannot express how much I love this podcast thank you madam president!!
Arrival is actually one of my favourite movies, I really encourage you to rewatch it now. Watching it again being older really struck me differently. It perhaps brought a tear to mine eye.
I work for a non-profit that coaches at-risk community college students, and we are constantly trying to tell high school seniors and current college students about the value add of college. So I really appreciate hearing you talk about the same things I’m trying to convince these kids every day! Knowledge is power. ✊🏻
"They're listening to argue back" is such a valid point when we talk about the information we get from the internet and how people react to it. Having in-person discussions about, for example, the toll international events and the balance of human existence, is so important because it does not allow anybody to hide behind screen or a comment section.
22:38 Brittany you are a philosopher, you’re someone who desires to live life to its fullest and experience everything you can and those experiences shape your worldview. To me that’s as philosophical as it gets.
brittany during midterms, a breakup, and a move i have to tell you this episode is more needed than ever. happy halloween mama broski
this is the highlight of my week, brittany is my hozier 🫶
^^^^^^^^^^
No literally
20:00-20:45 thats exactly how I see life, it's beautiful 💜
20:50- the ability to think, experiencing the universe, and the purpose of life; made me cry 😭
I think what’s nice about music is everyone can appreciate it broadly and there’s a type for everyone to find a preference. I can appreciate proficiency in music theory and instrumentation but when I’m driving down the highway, I don’t want to listen to jazz, I want to sing Sabrina Carpenter’s lyrics.
YOU ALWAYS SUMMARIZE THE WAY I FEEL SO WELL.
trying to explain to my sister why birdbox was such a unique and extremely terrifying kind of horror. She is someone who is more for the gory kind of characters, vs. my appreciation for media that can rely on more than just the general human fears. something beyond that
i went back to school to pursue education cause of brittany. hearing her talk about higher education means so much ❤️
As a tattoo artist, there is SO MUCH drama. It's almost EXACTLY like how high school is depicted on tv LOL
I’ve seen Brittany around the internet, but I’ve never heard her speak on anything besides in humorous convos. She’s so funny and seems so lovely and kind. I loved listening to this podcast, it was like listening to a goofy, smart friend. ❤️
Ok, that Mumford and Sons House of the Rising Sun cover was actually incredible, thank you Brittany!!!!!
came for the aliens, stayed for the validation of my humanities degree
Brittany you would unironically love Arrival 😭 it's so good, emotional, it's about love and knowledge and the psychological terror that comes with being a human.
please speak up about the genocide happening in occupied pal3st1n3
I have literally been OBSESSED with lovecrafts stories ever since I read them in middle school and I’m so glad someone is talking about this. I could go on and on and on about this type of horror it just does something to me
i actually studied the arrival movie in an english course once and it’s now one of my favorite movies. in the class we were studying time and the concept of time in media and life and essentially the circles that amy adams was drawing was their way of communicating bc they see time as a cyclical thing rather than a linear thing that we humans see it as (with a beginning and end like brittany was saying). so they essentially can see all of time at once and don’t really have a sense of past or future. that’s why amy adams had to learn their “language” of circles in order to communicate with them and understand what they wanted. and then she becomes fluent in this language and eventually learns how to see time like that as well??? And that’s what all the “flashbacks” were. they were actually just here being able to see into different moments of her life, both past and present 🤯🤯
I feel so comforted and grounded by Brittney's words when it comes to the human experience. Not only do I have very similar values when it comes to valuing life and love and respect, but I also am in awe of how she can articulate things in a way that is so powerful and profound. It never feels preachy or pushy, but rather coming from the heart and the mind of someone who has so much wisdom to give. I am always moved by your words, and from the bottom of my heart, you move me to be a better communicator and person as a whole. (Plus I love thinking about things beyond comprehension, it make my brain chemicals very happy, so it nice to hear you also like that aspect of lovecraftian horror)
Listening to Brittany talk about the universe, the scale of it, and how humans react to it is something that honestly brings me so much peace of mind. I have the same thoughts all of the time!! Most of the time I find comfort and love in my understanding of the universe, but sometimes the scale of I can be terrifying! Knowing other girlies think of all this at the same time makes me feel like I’m not crazy! 😂
as a literature major i got SO!!! excited about this episode i Love when brittany teaches us things
Brittany: delivers the most heartfelt and beautiful speech about how beautiful life is and that how we're so lucky to be alive the same time as those we love, making me tear up at work
Brittany: But I'm just riffin' here.
Noooo Fr fr lmfao
No cause ur actually saving my life right now Britney I’m so down terribly like my head is so scary rn but u just dropped an episode and now I can take my mind off shit so honestly thank u I love u sm
Hope you get better dude 🙏🙏
Don’t deprive yourself from the chance of happiness, there are people who care for you. I hope you keep your head high, and make it through this
@@soldierinsane2689 that means a lot thank you I’m persevering fr fr
Wishing you peace. I’ve been there❤️
@@berby2068 aww ty and same to u
Sevdaliza is definetly one of the many artists that are barely known, but so incredible in songwriting, production, everything. Brittany, if you notice this comment out of thousands of others, i'd love to recommend her to you, and to everyone reading this. She really changed my life, i'd say the same way Rosalia did.
omg second this comment i love sevdaliza i never seem to come across other fans!! i’m rarely a person who’ll listen to an artists whole discography i just couldn’t get enough of her after ison
@@bagelbites4668 literally!!! i’ve discovered her quite recently, her sound in music really drew me closer, and now I know her whole discography LMAO
@@czworka5022 she’s just got that music that makes you feel it all and ascend. do you have a top song? i stumbled across her video for bluecid on here by chance in 2019 and it’s still gotta be one of my fav songs.
Would not call her barely known tho
Brittany is the best influencer out there. I literally laugh out loud every episode.
i’ve seen miss broski’s content in passing, but these past couple months i’ve been watching fr and i’ve absolutely fallen in love!
I went to college at BYU (mormon university, i’ve since left the faith) but going there is one of my biggest regrets in life. I started during the pandemic where everything was online. i barely knew my roommates, i didn’t go to in person classes, and it was so isolating. plus, in mormonism, there is such a push to get married young which makes the college experience so much harder.
i love hearing brittany talk about college & her experience bc i can get a feel for what college should have been for me without religion interfering.
i went and rewatched the meeting harry styles video after watching the hozier video and i just cried because i felt so happy for you and how far you’ve come. im not usually a commenter but i just wanted to say how much you’ve changed my view of the world and humans and how beautiful it can all be. i look forward to your podcast coming out every week and i am just amazed at how a person can just be so simultaneously hilarious and intelligent and just so multifaceted. love ya brittany 🫶🏻
your silence speaks volumes
