- Apollo's come a long way this year. We've put together his best moments of 2022 into a compilation. These are the most viewed, liked, shared, and some of our personal favorite bits.
Raise your GLASSK to a great 2023!
Apollo is our African Grey parrot we've had since December 2020.
Founder of Shrock and renowned GLASS connoisseur.

Apollo is the only bird I've seen to make a joke and then laugh at his own joke. "What's this made of?" "..Shrek."
I still think they should look if the glass didn't contain a little bit of Shrek in it
Made of Shrek, made of Shrock, made of glask, made of corKK, made of plask.
Can someone give me the time stamp for this
@@Drawble 2:55
@@NitroMemes thanks!
Omg him practicing how to say “plastic” on his own is amazing!!
and he's only three, african greys can live to be 23 on average, he'll be a walking dictionary by then!
@@prestongarvey2599 23 is in the wild. When taken care their lifespan prolongs by 2,5 times.
@@irdorath356 fair
@@prestongarvey2599i think that’s in the wild. in captivity they live more than double that on average.
(nvm some dude already told you lol)
It’s made of *_P L A C K_*
My Pacific parrotlet, Cirrus, LOVES Apollo! And what's even cooler is that he's learning from him. Cirrus is starting to correctly choose items by material, and while we watched this video, he actually said 'metal' before Apollo did. Thank you for teaching my baby to love learning!
Wow
That’s amazing!
metal

Apollo talks to “Scam Likely” and the operator actually thinking he’s human. Goes to show how good he is at words.
Everytime they realize something is up... cracks me up everytime.
Wdym?
What you don't realize is that's a trained Indian Ringneck parrot on the other end of the line, lol.
As a Discworld fan, "Scam Likely" sounds like a plausible name to me! :'D
Whenever I see the name scam likely I think about dungeon and daddies
2022: Year of the Shrock
2022 was a bad year for me in many ways, but one of the highlights was definitely being blessed by the invention of SHROCK
Next 2023 year of GLASSK
smart fella…. FART SMELLA
@@williamfatgomry152 this glass is made of metal

"Step up, don't bite Apollo. Good boy, now what do you want?
🦜: "staaaash 🥺"
At 8:01 when you ask Apollo what he wants and he gives the tiniest, cutest little "Stash? 🥺" is so adorable it makes my heart melt!
I was looking for this comment 😅
Literally
Not in a million years did I expect him to be able to express things like when he's curious about smth. He wanted to know what a flashlight is and asked "whats this", and "what colour is this".. My universe is collapsing in on itsself 😂
It's not that he is really curious about it and more that he learned the phrase "What's this" from his owner that constantly asks him what something is. He is conditioned by now to say that whenever something comes up
@@salbarskytower2546 I realized that soon after but its fun to imagine he's curious about it 😂
@@salbarskytower2546I'm thinking it's a little bit of both, because I see him saying "what's this" whenever an item comes up. Maybe he's actually learning how to express curiosity to his owner! :]
@@salbarskytower2546 He knows what the words mean. Parrots are about as smart as the average ~6 year old child. African Grey Parrots (Apollo's Species) are among the most intelligent of parrots, which have even surpassed cognitive intelligence tests made by Harvard University. In fact, they rival chimpanzees and other great apes with their ability to reason and perform cognitive tasks. You might not be able to teach the entire language to a parrot, and they may not be able to make out abstract meanings, but they definitely understand the words enough to use them to communicate with their caretakers just as apes do with sign language.
@@imnotnightmarez I think it's less curiosity and more 'stash. "New object? _What's this_ Now I can get more 'stash!"
It still blows my mind how young he is and how much he has already learned. Such a smart little lad. Love him to death. Especially the little "ooo"s he does. And the way he asks for "'stach?🥺".
Always makes my day a little brighter.
Only a little????
Don't lie. We all live for Appollo here and so do you.
Well, he is just like a young child, they learn faster at that age.
His old is he?
Thanks to Apollo, my best bro, I have learned to relax, just as he told me.
"relax, okay? Relax, brother it's okay."
LMAOOOOO
7:30-7:35, his joke answer of Shrock and the laughing dance to show he knows, is my favourite of all 2022 moments.
I love when Apollo just answers "Shrek", "Shrock" or "Wario" whenever he feels like it.
“What do you want?”
Apollo “pistache?” 🥺
I'm such a sucker 😂 I'd have to give him one.
I love nothing more than Apollo saying "glAss" every time he taps the window with his beak. What a beautiful boy
Bro just making sure that's real glass
I love how he said “my shirt??” Like he actually realized he doesn’t wear shirts lmao amazing
“Don’t order take out. Relax. Relax” good advice
“No chewin’!” 😂 My favorite part is when Apollo is on his own riffing. Really interesting and well done with the training and stimulation! Turned me on to birds. You earn a Pistash! 👍🏼
I agree, watching him babble and practice vocals is so enjoyable
I love the parts where he wonders about new/unfamiliar objects. It’s always so fun to watch the antics surrounding those.
The little "pistach?" at 8:00 is absolute gold. Peak comedy and comedic timing.
6:41 "oh i got the bird! oh i'm the bird." easily the best thing i've ever seen and heard.
The way he touches the bell, looks at the camera and says "glass" is just perfect
The way Apollo says "Uuugh ants?" And looks genuinely disgusted 😂
1:42 The way he just looks dead in my eyes saying „c o r n“ 🌽
6:56 that call ending sound was so accurate lmao
I love that he actually _asks_ what things are and what color they are. He wants to learn! Such a precious smart boy.
2:47 The fact that he knew it was a bell from you ringing it after you were focusing on identifying what it was made of is just amazing.
Hearing Apollo say "Relax" to me made me so happy, I've been stressed with school recently and it just so happened to make my day.
"yes, well, relax, okay? Relax, brother, it's okay."
3:21 bro had that entirely correct.
9:34 “relax brother” had me dead
at 1:55-2:08 i was vibing with the song and him😂
Relax brother it’s ok
“touch ur beak… boop!” MY HEARTTTT 🥺😭
I particularly enjoyed "hands off the corn" immediately followed by gunfire. Apollo really doesn't like others touching his corn apparently.
He probably heard "hands off the gun" on a TV show, and he thought they said "hands off the corn"
The motives made a lot more sense in his bird head, because everyone loves the corn.
"SUCK" *aggressive slurping sounds* 😂
I wonder where he heard that 💀
I love that Apollo got to talk to scammers🤣🤣
That massage gun bit at 3:28 😂 It looks like Apollo tried to match the vibrations of the massage gun when he couldn’t bite it the first time.
it got me laughing
5:47 Ah-puh-puh-puh-puh-puh-pollo!
“Relax, brother. It’s okay.” Had me DYING
I heard "SUCK" and the sounds he made, I was like AAAYYYOOO 🤣🤣
We need a t-shirt that says “Apollo says relax” 😂
Yeah. He's pretty chill. 😅
Omg having him answer the spam calls is brilliant! 😂😂😂
It’s hilarious when you think about it, at 4:30 the guy on the other end doesn’t realize he’s talking to a parrot. I love it. Apollo’s such a troll
He's so darn clever - repeating things at the exact right situation, like the "don't chew".
6:48 I wasnt ready 💀
6:40 he did a bop aging 😂
im glad i found your channel this year, love you guys
Me 2
Me 3.
I love how Apollo's mode of learning is through the power of *BONK!*
4:50 this bird knows how to handle scam calls
i love his “glass” deadpan. he says it so matter-of-fact-ly.
0:13 What kind of unholy things did that bird had to endure ? 🤣
Anything to earn that pistash! 😂😂😂
Makes me think of the bird who imitates an orgasm
*goes to comments*
S U C C
Mama and papa be getting wild… but tbh it’s hard to get privacy when you have a permanent 5 year old with wings
5:55 that pose 😂
I don't know why, but him saying "relax brother, it's okay" really got to me :D
When he said “look squirrel “ i relate to that.
I adore how he tells himself to touch his beak and then does it
5:41 - 6:09 the most touching monologue EVER!!!! I cried of how different my life became after those words
Also loving the moment where he says "Glass"
You guys are awesome.
Thanks for sharing Apollo with us millions. I’ve just come across you and I instantly fell in love with your parrot, he’s just incredible.
I’m an ICU nurse in London, I have played your videos to some of our long term patients. He puts a smile on everyone’s face, proper animal therapy ❤️ I try and show a short clip every day. Keep up the good work, you are helping people in remarkable ways that you would never have anticipated when you first started.
👍🏼🤩🥰❤️🙌🏼😂🤣😂⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🤗
I never knew I loved G L A S S so much until the prophet Apollo brought the good word.
Deep voice: 'GLASK'. We love Apollo!! So so much. It always amazes me how smart they are. The way he asks himself questions and answers then correctly haha. So so precious!! ❤
8:12 omg he going crazy
"What's it made of?"
" *Shrek* "
*refuses to elaborate*
*leaves*
Him self teaching himself is the craziest thing like seeing him practice on his own is just wild
Love how he said “this is a bell” without even being asked. He just heard it ring.
This bird is the embodiment of my brain 24/7
i love apollo as he just says random actual sentences about random things can connect them properly but he just sounds like he has tourrets and i love it
Makes sense why he put Apollo on the phone to deal with customer service. He speaks their language. 😂
@@MaryDunford never heard a more accurate comment lmao
2:00 also can we get a dance video of apollos just bobbing his head? instant internet sensation!
YES
7:28 LOL
I love how he looks over at the Camera whenever he answers, it's like he knows and is telling everyone
3:09 I like when Apollo says paper 📄
1:55 sick moves
WOOOOOOW
I love how he isn't just repeating words and stuff, he can recognize items.
5:38
The way Apollo says "metal" like the human is silly for asking
0:48 Apollo just roasted us all 😂😂😂😂
0:50 HOLY SHIT ITS MICHAEL BIRD JACKSON
9:25 I love how sassy he is in his "Thats not yo butt GRrass!"
I find this bird so hilariously entertaining. What an intelligent and charismatic little fellow!! Big props to you for training him systematically and clearly taking great care of him. Much love from Maryland
I love when he sees the flashlight, and Apollo asks "what's this color" and "what's this made of".... He really is amazing.
Happy 2023! A Lot of shroks and glassks for everybody!
Apollo saying *Succ* has still been left unexplained
This is the most genuine channel for talking birds. Thank you for not adding music or crappy interpretations for clout. You have a smart good bird and you’re fabulous parents
7:35 b o p 😂 😂 😂
Apollo: mEtal
Dalton: No, you know this one
Apollo: ...
...
GLASK 🗿
😂😂😂
4:57 THAT COUGHT ME OFF GAURD
SUCK!
The most devious carrot
5:18 the tables have turned
I love how he transitioned from rock to barock, to buck buck buckaw. Making chicken noises. And he totally went for the chicken sounds too. Honestly I love any time he realizes what sound he makes and find a connection to another concept and switches over.
8:19 omg i didn't know parrots can play like that 🤯
Happy New Year Apollo, GLASSK.
"uggghhh ants uggghhh" -Apollo 2022
"touch your beak,boop"
-Apollo
4:06
I wonder when material called „metalPLAK” will be invented.
I like when he asks "What's this?" 👍💕
6:23 had me dying
amazing the bird knows butt is his body part. 😂😂😂
3:42 Apollo playing with the theragun looks funny, especially that he tries to chew on it
5:56 literally sounds like that meme sound effect of a guy moaning lmao I can't stop laughing. 😂
Apollo is not only AMAZING but EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT!!!! You are the BEST PARENT EVER for this parrot!!!! You should be very proud of urself alllllll that u have taught him, GOOD JOB!!!!❤
His brain doesn't know which ball to pick! 8:14 that was super cool to watch! ❤❤❤ this bird! "Relax brother it's ✅ ok!" 😂
"Ok, what do you want?"
... "pistash...? 🥺"
i love this bird
This bird makes me very happy
i regularly say things like "touch purple. touch. purple" and "this is a BOWL" to myself now
I love how you can actually hear what he's thinking all the time. It's adorable.
He speaks in the accent and intonation of the guy who’s teaching him. So cute.
Apollo is so cute. I’m so glad I found him on this channel. ❤️
