Just a few thoughts that have been on my mind. I hope you got something out of this little talk of mine. If not...Hey, it's Tuesday! I hope yours is a good one. Here's some important links.

Your point on not being happy all the time really resonated with me because I've come to realize recently that it's unrealistic and almost obsessive to try to live without any bad days because you need those bad days and moments in your life to truly cherish the good times, keep up the good work man and definitely keep on posting these random thoughts, or whatever you like to call them, type of videos
Watching you isn’t boring, it’s always a delight. I enjoy these insightful discussions that you make. You always make great points. That quote is quite interesting yet true. How can a mind flourish if it is closed off?
"I know watching me sit here for 10+ minutes can be outstandingly boring" boi you could sit there 24/7 and I'd still be glued to the screen, stop with this nonsense
I really appreciate your stance on how to utilize youtube. a lot of popular youtubers are using their platform to create cookie-cutter content and never stray from their typical routine because they fear that it might upset their subscribers and as a result, will impact their channel. but it doesn't have to be that way! you are delivering fresh content of all different forms, and I really enjoy listening to your opinions beyond food reviews.
Lol the man has to sleep sometime! I agree though. Patiently awaiting his reading of Neuromancer because all the ones that exist seem to get on my nerves
Dean Smith After last week’s “story time” I recommended he read longer children’s books like The Chronicles of Narnia or Alice in Wonderland. Even as an adult reading those books is peaceful, so can you imagine if John’s soothing voice read them? It would be for all ages. Maybe a chapter a week.
Yeah my dudes voice isa source of comfort for sure and I have a suspicion that it is going to make him considerably comfortable himself someday in the near future
i have a algebra II worksheet that I'm trying desperately to finish before my first day back to school tomorrow, and I'm having so much trouble with it since it's stuff I learned 2 years ago. Then I put this video on and listened to it. I looked back at my worksheet and suddenly everything became clear and I know I can finish within a few hours and get the answers right. Basically this video relaxed my nerves and allowed me to think clearly. Thanks ReportOfTheWeek
Some people just watch Review Brah because of the meme he's become, but he's so much more. Review Brah is an elegant and intelligent man. He never isn't polite. He's never saying anything genuinely stupid. He is an inspiring, encouraging and thought provoking man who will live in my heart forever. God bless you Review Brah.

"i didn’t die. i’m very much alive." sounds like something a ghost in denial would say 🤔
I’m about your age and live in Orlando, I listen to your radio wave as often as I get the chance and watch every video the day it comes out. I can truthfully say I care about what you think and you as a person. You are extremely upstanding and I have every reason to look up to you. Whichever direction your Channel goes I wholeheartedly support you.
I woke up not too long ago, it’s a grey, rainy day and I don’t feel too well. Having this play in the background as I was doing my daily morning-routine was very calming and made me feel less alone. It was nice, so thank you :)
I love these! Please do more...it feels like a caring, intelligent father talking to his children about the way to view life as they face it as adults. Well done!
It's also important to recognize that you rarely have all of the information about an event, and this is especially true about things on the news or on social media, and you need to work that knowledge into your thought process. The scope of your open mindedness shouldn't be exclusive to the information you have. You can form an opinion based on what you know, but it's important to keep your mind open to future information after that opinion is formed. This changes if you are in a position of authority where you need to make a decision based on the information you have, but in general I think it's good advice.
Always a pleasure to tune in. Thanks for the conversation. Hope to see more of these kinds of media, god knows this generation needs it myself included.
You are a delight to watch and listen to. There's a REASON that you have over 1 million subscribers. The simple fact is, we need you. I'm proud of you. THANK YOU.
I started ignoring the media altogether a while back because I got sick of it all. Lots of respect here to you for wading through it and still coming out with the mindset you have. I enjoyed the video as always. Keep doing what you're doing!
Reviewbrah, these types of videos always seem to come at a time when I need them the most in life. They show me insight not many people can provide and for that, I thank you. I love these videos.
Google news often has multiple sources on the same story, which I like. People love to jump the gun on everything these days based on instant news notifications. Good talk.
You're so right about this topic! People need to pay attention and not mindlessly believe one source without checking other sources. Very happy to be privy to your more serious tales on things.
Review Brah, Thank you so much for making videos like these. I know not many people like to watch these/tune it out but I LOVE watching these videos about your thoughts! Please don't stop. I really enjoyed you talking about how that you should make your own opinions instead of letting someone else think for you.
I dont think reviewbrah can even remember the New Millenium...much less be a Millenial. He is gen-z, they lack any memory of the year 2000. They are similar to millenials, but without the fashionable victimhood and melodrama associated with Millenials. I like them way more than my own generation...sadly I am actually a Millenial.
tune out? man, these kinds of videos are the ones where i cant tune out, your thoughts and perspective are really interesting, while i enjoy the food reviews i think that these (and the radio show) are what keep me watching you, specially since you've struck a balance where your "topic specific" videos are always intersting, with food reviews to fill in the gaps while you make one of these. EDIT: WOAH, i really like where this video went, i already knew this stuff, but next time people i know dont want to expand the scope of their media consumption, i'll send them this
Your approach to processing what you see, read or hear, mirrors mine. Thank you for explaining the importance of an open mind, logic, skeptism, reason, research and a more global approach to perusing news sources. I hope people will understand what you do and try emulate your methods. Thank you!
Only been subscribed for a little while now, but I have to say I don't think anyone minds what kind of content you make! People are here for your personality and the way you hold and present yourself. I think we all just love listening to you talk, so it's fun to shake things up!
As much as I first came here because of the memes I saw of you, the personality, content and general honesty you present in your videos are what kept me loving each video. Keep it up my guy!!
I totally agree with you because is very important to not only get news from one source but to get opinions from other sources so you can decide. This not only applies for news but events in our daily lifes and how we choose to be in it , alright thank you .
Whoosh me all you want. He never said brains work like parachutes. I'm sure if you spent more time, there is a more clever joke there. Maybe add a step. Considering you're jumping out of a plane, that may not be possible.
Dude I actually have fucking mad respect for you I can tell that you are a really intelligent person and especially in our generation there isn’t a whole lot of that.. Thank you
In truth I appreciate these videos as well as your reviews or reactions, as you provide variety that's lost on a number of other TH-camrs (particularly when it comes to food). There was a cringe food reviewers video I came across and you were in it. It was a big mistake as so many people, myself included, proclaimed you shouldn't be in this cringe video. The uploader even made a note about how, upon reflecting, you shouldn't have been in it at all. You are the ReviewBrah and offer more than just critique, you are an example of what is fading from this website- a real person and not just a business.
Love seeing this side of you man. Always keep an open mind on everything. Life becomes more of an observation rather than judgment and it’s just fascinating.
this was cool.....felt like the experience of having a really wholesome conversation with your grandpa but like. simulated and reproduced in video form. Thanks reviewbrah!
Dear ReviewBrah. Once I had my realisation on Perspectives and the fact that we have control over them, it took me about 3 weeks to end up in a manic state in a psych ward. Tread carefully. These are powerful realizations. Not only because they empower you to find happiness in even the darkest corners. But also because it makes you realize how much of human suffering is self-inflicted through their (un)conscious choice of wrong perspectives. Not only that, it could cause you to think that your needs for possessions both material and immaterial are superficial. Superficial in the sense that ultimatily they are irrelevent in the quest of a happy and content life. These kind of revalations can have a profound impact on your life. While your own perspectives on your life are safeguarded by the fact that you are capable of choosing them. For others who lack this capability, or consciously choose to have a different perspective, things might start to look weird and worrisome. May wisdom guide you in choosing the right perspectives.
My family is like this, especially my mom- a bit closed-minded. It's a hard thing to be around since I have for the longest time believed in open-mindedness and looking at the big picture. I really learned even more when I took an Isreali-Palestinian history class, sourcing different information is so important.
Catching up on vids. This one was very very good. The parachute quote was awesome and it is etched in my mind. Thoughtful views and information. Well done...Thanks so much.
Thank you! A philosophy I have always lived by. An open parachute like an open mind is best for the world. An open mind, well kept, without gaping holes can lend flexibility and tolerance that makes life so much more fun and engaging.
Serious comment: Your insight and desire for objectivity is refreshing and astute. We are all biased, we all get our news from sources we agree with and avoid the ones we disagree with; I'm guilty of it. The thing is, to be truly "open-minded", one must give as much credence to opposing views as they do to their own, and as objectively as possible, determine fact from opinion. Thank you, John, for sharing your wisdom.
Just a few thoughts that have been on my mind. I hope you got something out of this little talk of mine. If not...Hey, it's Tuesday! I hope yours is a good one. Here's some important links.

Brax B yes! Bring back idle mind!
I concur, well said, and I look forward to three hours regarding your thoughts on shortwave.
seriously.
Hi Review Brah. What do you look for in a friend? Do you have a lot of friends?
Just making conversation :)
One of the most attractive men in history
"Men" are you sure?
Yeah, he’s not a man. He’s God.
He’s an omnipotent benevolent deity, he’s above such petty human social constructs like gender
I meant to say organism instead of human
Tom UK he doesn't do that.
New Reviewbrah video 2 years in the future:
"The metaphysical implications of pepperoni pizza in postmodern society"
Comedy hahahahaha
Thats not sarcasm ^
: An essay
Why haven’t you received the Nobel Prize yet?
Flame of Udûn he already have 10 of them
Because the Nobel prize isn't noble enough for the Brah.
Thats not good company any more.
Did Dalai Lama bomb a country
Tenzin Havok no but former president brumak obongo did
You're the only self-help author i trust. I'm not even kidding. Keep spinning the dial, Brah
you should read some Kierkegaard too
Watching you isn’t boring, it’s always a delight. I enjoy these insightful discussions that you make. You always make great points. That quote is quite interesting yet true. How can a mind flourish if it is closed off?
white males shouldn't be allowed to speak
That includes you, Mr. CIA anime account
"I know watching me sit here for 10+ minutes can be outstandingly boring"
boi you could sit there 24/7 and I'd still be glued to the screen, stop with this nonsense

The wokest man on TH-cam
nama hecc he is not a "woke man". You listen to the words of a true god.
nama hecc he’s not really woke if he supports animal cruelty
Will Bourner V nobody gives a shit that you're vegan. Have him do his work and fuck off.
Besides Vsauce respectively
DMTB Boi I didn’t say i was vegan, I didn’t mention anything about me whatsoever
Got new headphones and it sounded like you were in the room with me. Started looking for a burning bush like you do when you hear the voice of god.
A burning pizza box
What an appropriate username to go with that comment
I’m laughing so hard
I laughed, which is rare.
You need to do audio books
NICO I sent John an email about this just a few days ago - it’s so true!
Lol the man has to sleep sometime! I agree though. Patiently awaiting his reading of Neuromancer because all the ones that exist seem to get on my nerves
Dean Smith After last week’s “story time” I recommended he read longer children’s books like The Chronicles of Narnia or Alice in Wonderland. Even as an adult reading those books is peaceful, so can you imagine if John’s soothing voice read them? It would be for all ages. Maybe a chapter a week.
Yeah my dudes voice isa source of comfort for sure and I have a suspicion that it is going to make him considerably comfortable himself someday in the near future
Dean Smith I completely agree.
ReviewBrah for president. He obviously is a 40 year sophisticated brah in the body of a younger brah.
Lol
He is a God in the body of a mortal
NOPE! Reviewbrah is 21 years old. Anyways, you don’t know his political views.
Reviewbrah is my news source
No one woman can handle Brah. That's why he has thousands.
"Minds Are Like Parachutes"
- Barely anybody has one?
Absolutely!
Reviewbrah always elevates my mindset to the next pizza
Veridian pizza time

Ha ha.
Agreed
God has graced us with his presence once again.
Justin Y. How you have 100k sub by just commenting?
Oh ya #hehe
Shut up justin
You didn't watch this video you peasant.
One comment is not enough or?

I wish reviewbruh did his own 60min news outlet. He's got the look, the voice, but most importantly he has the audience for it.
Normallyboring This
Good for you. And such a young age. Most don't experience this until middle age, if ever at all.
Watching you sit here for 10 minutes talking is not boring at all. It's very enjoyable.
Alice Smith I wish it was longer. Like 10 times longer.
You are truly a wise and good man I appreciate your videos and messages that u spread
A gentle mind in this plain of chaos. You are so wise.
Wise beyond your years.
Always a pleasure to tune in. Thanks for the conversation. Hope to see more of these kinds of media, god knows this generation needs it myself included.
this man's vocabulary is legendary
You are a delight to watch and listen to. There's a REASON that you have over 1 million subscribers. The simple fact is, we need you. I'm proud of you. THANK YOU.
I started ignoring the media altogether a while back because I got sick of it all. Lots of respect here to you for wading through it and still coming out with the mindset you have. I enjoyed the video as always. Keep doing what you're doing!
I like these uploads because they’re like a visual version of VORW. I enjoy the perspective and thoughts that come up.
Your talks are always very insightful. I and many others enjoy them greatly, truthfully I see talks like these as some of your best content.
I don't need no stress ball or recreational drugs when i got ReviewBrah's vids
Reviewbrah, these types of videos always seem to come at a time when I need them the most in life. They show me insight not many people can provide and for that, I thank you. I love these videos.
I actually felt pretty good watching this. Thanks ReviewBrah!
Always enlightening. Never boring. Deeply appreciated.
Google news often has multiple sources on the same story, which I like. People love to jump the gun on everything these days based on instant news notifications. Good talk.
I'm very blessed to have to caught this message.
Nothing you do is ever boring. Thank you for your work.
You're so right about this topic! People need to pay attention and not mindlessly believe one source without checking other sources. Very happy to be privy to your more serious tales on things.
Your thoughtful thoughts are my favorite moments on TH-cam! 💜
I loved this video! I hope that there are more to come!
Review Brah, Thank you so much for making videos like these. I know not many people like to watch these/tune it out but I LOVE watching these videos about your thoughts! Please don't stop. I really enjoyed you talking about how that you should make your own opinions instead of letting someone else think for you.
Thank you for this relaxed little chit chat. Love you and what you do!
The most intelligent millennial might I say.
Not really that much of a compliment....
A Dumb Edgy Name Found the boomer.
He is Generation Z actually, the Generation after Millennials...
I dont think reviewbrah can even remember the New Millenium...much less be a Millenial.
He is gen-z, they lack any memory of the year 2000.
They are similar to millenials, but without the fashionable victimhood and melodrama associated with Millenials.
I like them way more than my own generation...sadly I am actually a Millenial.

Words can't properly articulate how important you are to this moment in time...
I watched this entire video and I have to say it has helped me beyond belief.
Thank you for taking the time for making this.
tune out? man, these kinds of videos are the ones where i cant tune out, your thoughts and perspective are really interesting, while i enjoy the food reviews i think that these (and the radio show) are what keep me watching you, specially since you've struck a balance where your "topic specific" videos are always intersting, with food reviews to fill in the gaps while you make one of these.

Watching 10 minutes of you is not boring, it is a blessing.
I really liked this format. Listening to you talk is nice.
PLEASE TALK MORE ABOUT SHORTWAVE LISTENING!!
My husbando
Elzeta lmao
Bitch, get in the line...it is a few miles long!
Elzeta
He is his own husbando. Reviewbrah belongs to no one.
He's everyone's!
having more than one husbando can destroy your laifu
As much as I first came here because of the memes I saw of you, the personality, content and general honesty you present in your videos are what kept me loving each video. Keep it up my guy!!
I love you man, keep doing your thing.
I live for these non food videos of yours. They help me in a way I can't quite explain. Thank you!
I totally agree with you because is very important to not only get news from one source but to get opinions from other sources so you can decide. This not only applies for news but events in our daily lifes and how we choose to be in it , alright thank you .
Next time I jump out of a plane, I'll remember to take my brain out to slow my fall.
Thanks, Review Brah!
Nonaffluent
Just be sure to hang on. Wouldn't wanna lose all your theories and lore of Bookworm Adventures.
Your name and pic complete my life
Whoosh me all you want. He never said brains work like parachutes. I'm sure if you spent more time, there is a more clever joke there. Maybe add a step. Considering you're jumping out of a plane, that may not be possible.
Aksel falkon was gonna comment this and thought noone would get it xD
Thank you. Really. From the depths of my heart, thank you.
Dude I actually have fucking mad respect for you I can tell that you are a really intelligent person and especially in our generation there isn’t a whole lot of that.. Thank you
This should be in imprinted into the brain of all humans on earth.
listening to you speak is NEVER boring
In truth I appreciate these videos as well as your reviews or reactions, as you provide variety that's lost on a number of other TH-camrs (particularly when it comes to food). There was a cringe food reviewers video I came across and you were in it. It was a big mistake as so many people, myself included, proclaimed you shouldn't be in this cringe video.

You are the ReviewBrah and offer more than just critique, you are an example of what is fading from this website- a real person and not just a business.
I honestly love this guy! He makes the world better!!
Thank you Reviewbrah,
Fantastic video and insight as always.
Man i love these kind of videos
They help me so much
Love seeing this side of you man. Always keep an open mind on everything. Life becomes more of an observation rather than judgment and it’s just fascinating.
this guy blows my mind in so many ways. If he can build an empire on youtube so will I on my eating channel!
Y
Blows ur parachute*
you can in no way compete with review brah
lmao.. trueeee
Go home, rummy.
this was cool.....felt like the experience of having a really wholesome conversation with your grandpa but like. simulated and reproduced in video form. Thanks reviewbrah!
Dear ReviewBrah. Once I had my realisation on Perspectives and the fact that we have control over them, it took me about 3 weeks to end up in a manic state in a psych ward. Tread carefully.
These are powerful realizations. Not only because they empower you to find happiness in even the darkest corners.
But also because it makes you realize how much of human suffering is self-inflicted through their (un)conscious choice of wrong perspectives.
Not only that, it could cause you to think that your needs for possessions both material and immaterial are superficial. Superficial in the sense that ultimatily they are irrelevent in the quest of a happy and content life.
These kind of revalations can have a profound impact on your life. While your own perspectives on your life are safeguarded by the fact that you are capable of choosing them. For others who lack this capability, or consciously choose to have a different perspective, things might start to look weird and worrisome.
May wisdom guide you in choosing the right perspectives.
Thank you for being so positive!
Reviewbrah has blessed us mere mortals with his wonderful words of wisdom.
I like how he's so wise and looks at things with an intelligent perspective
Thank you for brightening up our day, John :)
My family is like this, especially my mom- a bit closed-minded. It's a hard thing to be around since I have for the longest time believed in open-mindedness and looking at the big picture. I really learned even more when I took an Isreali-Palestinian history class, sourcing different information is so important.
I love this version of reviewbrah. Do more of this man!
It's a very important topic to always be aware of, glad you brought it up Reviewbrah.
Catching up on vids. This one was very very good. The parachute quote was awesome and it is etched in my mind. Thoughtful views and information. Well done...Thanks so much.
This is important philisophical conversation. This is a wonderful program
I really needed this right now.
Your channel stays fresh. That is a good thing. Keep on keeping on, man.
A man of class and wisdom , good job. I never expected the message you just delivered to be both deep and well said. Keep up the good work.
That's a quote from Frank Zappa.
Anthony Pereira I like john Wayne's best quote " there are more horses asses than there are horses"
You’re really smart and think like I do in some ways. It’s a good feeling knowing someone also thinks about certain things other than myself
You're voice and the way you talk puts me right to sleep. Not because you are boring though. You're just so calming and you relax me. I luv u.
Thank you! A philosophy I have always lived by. An open parachute like an open mind is best for the world. An open mind, well kept, without gaping holes can lend flexibility and tolerance that makes life so much more fun and engaging.
ReviewBrahs comment section always positive and insightful! 💛👍🏽🙌🏽
I love you so much reviewbrah! You calm me and your videos fill me with joy 💕
People don’t say “mulling over” enough anymore. And that is why I love this ❤️ it feeds my weird soul.
Serious comment: Your insight and desire for objectivity is refreshing and astute. We are all biased, we all get our news from sources we agree with and avoid the ones we disagree with; I'm guilty of it.

Really would love more of these. Brilliant stuff Braj.
Let’s get a like on the video for this guy being honest and having the guts to do it
Thanks, Reviewbrah, you helped in my decision to start making music with videos like this. Truly inspiring!
