Bankman Lloyd Hughes and Borg William Sanderson are the most complex characters yet in a Joel Haver sketch. Both are destined to be at odds in their careers, yet they want to show their appreciation for each other’s hard work and drive for justice in the legal system. Great video as always, hope to see Bankman and Borg again. Maybe not David though he’s not very engaging
My farts are better than Joel's farts
They are not characters, they were acting as themselves 🤔
David who?
The fans have the same bizarre humor. I love this place
@@OrloxPhoenix Whoa! That was really them? I figured those were just lookalikes or AI-generated, or something.
When Molly joked that "joel is entitled to half of my teeth", i let out the most jolly and uproarious burst of laughter i've ever experienced in my life. But when she said "its good technology" and "its right on the papers", i flew into a blinding rage. My eyeballs were bursting out of my head as i wreaked havoc on my bedroom. When i came to, everything was destroyed.
Man, I wish you didn't say that because the exact same thing happened to me! And normally I'd feel relieved and justified at seeing the same story relayed, but when I read your comment, I was once again sent into convulsions of extreme emotional upheaval. Rough day
Perfectly reasonable
woah! thats the kind of thing to lead to societal upheaval 😮 be careful!!!
😂😂😂😂
@@noahclaycameron😂😂😂😂
Laughed once and screamed twice at this video
My farts are better than Joel's farts
Molly was brain tested, didn't even know it and reacted to her own jokes accordingly
The percentages don't lie, Molly!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
In inexplicable rage?
I've been saying to people how there hasn't been enough paper bag puppet content on youtube. So glad to see this.
My farts are better than Joel's farts
@@p-__ im putting a thumbs down on your comment. i just wanted you to know that.
@@pyrofox5034 We might as well report it as spam.
I believe
@@pyrofox5034I'm farting while i dislike your comment 😈
EVERY TIME I SEE MOLLY I AM FILLED WITH UNQUENCHABLE RAGE!!!
idk for me it's only like, two out of every three times
@@Dylan-4240 For me personally it's more like, I don't know... four out of six times? Somewhere around there. She's pretty funny though, when I'm not enraged at her.
the glasses softened the blow for me somehow.
I thought so, too, but after monitoring my brain waves I discovered it was Joel who was setting off my Amygdala like a three alarm fire. I suggest you recalibrate and retest before you do anything unfortunate.
Mostly I agree with you, but damn were there a 2-3 of lines in that😂😂😂 oh I can’t not laugh still 🤣🤣🤣. But right. Mostly rage
I remember receiving my brain tester in the mail a while back. I remember it would actually shock you a whole lot if you didn't laugh when Joel was on the screen and also you couldn't take it off. Overall pretty good product
You probably were just laughing so hard it short circuited, that’s okay! Thanks for Testing Your Brain™️
My farts are better than Joel's farts
Do you have to laugh when Joel makes a joke, or laugh every single minute he's on screen as if the entire concept of Joel even existing is absurd enough to induce borderline mania? I'm receiving my Brain Tester tomorrow and I've been trying to train myself to refrain from uncontrollably cackling every minute that my eyes are fixed on Joel- and you're telling me I can relax?! What a relief! I've even been listening to subliminal hypnosis in my sleep to try to accept Joel as a regular thing that happens. 'Joel Haver is a totally normal kind of person' 'If I saw Joel Haver in the grocery store I would be undeterred from my activities in my daily planner'- you know the type of thing. I thought I was in big trouble! This is great news!!!
Your Brain™ destroyed my marriage, 8.5/10
What a relief, those are the only moments I can't stop laughing! And I wasn't not not not paid to say so!
Most terms of service include a clause that signs over half of your teeth to the company, so I'm glad you're calling attention to this. Netflix came by yesterday for my two front teeth. Spotify came by this morning, also wanting my two front teeth. They're now going to court to sue Netflix, since I agreed to Spotify's ToS first. What a mess... I'm absolute gutted, because I know how much Spotify needs them.
Have you tried growing more teeth?
This is what they mean when they say they’re giving you dental
@@Joel-Haver And violate the clause in my mortgage contract specifically forbidding me from growing more teeth? No way
This is preposterous. The only teeth you should be required to give are your eye-teeth.
I get Spotify would bc of the Christmas song but Netflix?
It is now my mission to have a beer one on one with all 1.93 million Joel Haver subscribers
Hahaha
Or just randomly pick one sub and have 1.93 million beers with them.
I’d guess only about 60% would be into it. Really overestimating your appeal there… kind of giving David vibes tbh…
please quench my thirst Alex of the Martens
Only if its with Alex Martens 2
Love this kind of transparency from a major content creator
My farts are better than Joel's farts
I prefer them Opaque
I desperately need a video following Bankman and Borg as they carpool through this dog eat dog world.
Agreed.
A budding romance just to get by
A series.
Or maybe a Bankman and Borg / Ice Guys crossover episode!
doggy dog world
"it's not every day you're a resounding failure but today is that day" - thank you for this
That got me good
I'm also excited to add this phrase to my repertoire
This was all a ruse to test the engagement for the Bankman and Borg Show. My brain tester is fully engaged and approves.
That ending sequence between the two lawyers was one of my favorite scenes from you ever. It felt so real
Also, the cinematography as the car door closed, showing Bankman's reflection, then the shot of him driving away. Great stuff. Not to mention the brief shot of the guy in the hat stalking Borg as they leave Joel's house makes me really excited for the future of the series, to see what they do with that hook. I'm really worried for Borg and his wife and his car.
the sad sax really sold it
@@ApostleOjust scrolled through to see what you were talking about 😂😂😂
My favorite part of the video was the constant phone ringing in the background being a metaphor for us finally calling David out for his insanely low engagement scores.
I kept pausing the video thinking someone had like, left their phone somewhere in my house.
Our family get super excited any time we see David! Our 2 year old starts clapping with the biggest, goofiest grin on her face when David says his lines. We call it a "David Day" when he's in a video!!
Wrong. He generates 0 engagement
nice try David
i love how molly and alex immediately pivot to validating the system once it validates them. says a lot about privilege tbh
we live in a society
Sounds like someone is thinking of going Joker.
I was one of the 50 lucky audience members who received a Brain Tester back in October and it's true; David has elicited zero laughter or engagement from me.
my braintest is going off the CHARTS on this video
"Hey, it's not every day that you're a resounding failure, but today is that day."
Made it through this video and only screamed in rage upon seeing Molly 23 times. She's improving
This is the classic Joel and Trent content we've been asking for, thanks for hearing us Joel
This is precisely the advice I've been looking for to grow my channel. Thank you, Joel.
The engagement rate for the paper sack lawyers is gonna be absolutely nutty
Joel as a paper bag puppet lawyer needs its own series, there I said it!
You know, if Joel followed this advice, he too can run a successful KZhead channel
Yeah. He'll probably never get there.
Damn. I remember when David first appeared in a Joel video. He had so much promise and a true love of videos. In the end, I guess we truly never know whether we're the peanut butter or whether we're the ex wife. And actually now that I'm thinking about it, I'm remembering Molly, not David (I know because I was screaming violently at the screen, mostly, although occasionally laughing).
just happy to see molly doing ok!
A Joel and Molly feature-length road trip movie would be amazing
@lukescioscio where would they road trip?
Stellar video as always, Joel! Always great seeing Alex and Molly. What a great new direction for the channel!
I love the phone constantly ringing in the background, it really makes it seem like they're in an office building with plenty of busy lawyers.
Can we... get more of David?
He signed a binding legal document pledging to never appear in a Joel Haver Style Sketch ever again. Simply not possible
my neuron activation after witnessing David's bits is null, so happy to see him go!
Always incredible! Thanks Joel
I absolutely love the vast diversity of Joel's content, his creativity unbound
What's the difference between some peanut butter, and my ex-wife? I've been trying to figure this out for a while now, so if any of you come up with the answer, please let me know
Ok, but the shots of Bankman reflected in the car windows were both gorgeous AND hilarious. 10/10 scream of inexplicable rage
I truly loved this one. The ending was fantastic, please keep doing you joel.
Best of luck in your future endeavors, David
God dammit guys don’t you answer the phone! I’m calling to ask how to get this brain tester off my head, it really hurts
the jazz outro ! phenomenal cinematic experience ! Great work as always !
The quiet beeping in the video almost made me go insane, Great vid joel.
honestly im amazed how joel makes such funny skits every week and they have been getting funnier
So Borg and Bangman definitely hooked up and neither of them are brave enough to bring it up, right?
It's a dog-eat-dog world out there...
I love your videos that take a left turn in the middle.
Thank you for this tutorial. I think it’s going to really help me and your other viewers grow our KZhead audience. Thanks, Joel and Joel’s crew!
When I first saw Molly I only heard 2 of her jokes and I was fuming! I had to pause the video and start putting on clown make-up. But then I accidentally started the video again and heard another joke from her and started laughing. She's alright
✨❤️💫 Merry Christmas Joel thanks for making the more creative place - stay magical- as always ✨🎼✨🪐✨🦾✨🕊️✨🚀✨
Congrats on the engagement, Joel! 🎉 Your videos and your audience are a match made in heaven
Loved the background cellphone ringing when the lawyers showed up. I dont know what it is or how you do it but your videos always have such a nice touch. Really great stuff
Another certified neighborhood classic! 🧙♂️
The insaneo light on the wall really pulled this whole movie together. 🎬
That was a good video. Watched it with a friend and it was good enough he liked the video too. Thank you for making this content, I was very engaged even though David was there.
one can clearly see that the two lawyers hard boiled pseudo love story was all they really care about. and I m with them ❤
Hey, it’s me, one of the brain testees, here to explain my reaction to a few of Molly’s jokes. The one third that made me laugh were really funny, and I was in a giggly mood while using the tester, so I laughed a lot. This mood made it infuriating when a joke didn’t so much as a chuckle from me, so I screamed as loud as I could. Looking back on this decision, I think I would’ve done the same even without the tester on or my giggly mood. Not sure about the other 66% of testers, though.
My farts are better than Joel's farts
I need to hear hot dogs referred to as "ballpark franks" more often.
the peanut butter debacle will be one of my favorite future videos of yours, really cool to see this in front of the scenes sneak peek of the creation of it
So much joy these videos give me
That lawyer sounds suspiciously like Joel doing a voice…
This David guy is going places!
To look for jobs?
Very instructive video. Thank you.
Wow I have to say I'm impressed. Those subtones at the end were stellar, really nailing that Stan Getz tone!
I can't be the only one who was wanting to see a beautiful romance bloom between Borg and Bankman, right?
Thank you for this be hind the scenes look at the reality of running such a successful channel, Joel! PS: I scream, you scream, we all scream two thirds of the time for Molly!
True work of art!
This is an amazing Joel video, the lawyers were hilarious! I like the theme change too
For the record, I felt most engaged by the paper bag puppets. Please re-film your entire content library (same audio) using paper bag puppets. Your audience eagerly awaits.
Each of your videos still make my day, it's insightful, realistic, accurate and provocotive, in all the right ways. Tell me Joel, did you go to preschool? If so, what was your preschools philosophy?
Really great sound design on this one.
I've finally calmed down enough, after screaming with inexplicable rage at Molly, to say thank you for the insight to your channel Joel this has been an enlightening and mostly joyful experience.
Great job getting david out of the channel! He was definitely a detriment, i hate looking at zeros and that guy made nothing but. By the way, you should the lawyers appear more often! They turned every zero into a one, and that's good for analytics, you should take it up with a lawyer to make sure, though.
As a big fan of Alex, I think he should be the one chosen to no longer appear on the Joel Haver KZhead Channel. His spot should be given to The Stranger piano music book on the keyboard stand.
Love the Borg and Bankman bit. Glorious Joel, GLORIOUS!
I can honestly say without a doubt in my heart that this is one of the most unique sketches I've ever seen and I love it. Bankman and Borg gotta make appearances in future videos!
Why am I getting emotional over paper bags
I need Borg and Bankman ASAP. Only you, Joel, can give the world an overly serious, melodramatic 17 minute long KZhead video about Borg and Bankman.
Joel Haver's vids bring meaning to my life
Hilarious as always, and the unexpected layered cinematic complexity at the end was next level. I'd watch a whole movie of the lawyer puppets
A tough call, but he had to go. Kudos to Joel and his legal team for not making a spectacle or making it awkward for any parties involved. The channel has grown massively and Joel once again manifests his role as team captain while reassuring us shareholders that focussing on audience engagement is the way forward.
not buying it, pal
Great work again from Joel Molly and Alex! I thought it was weird when they started talking to nothing, but I found it pretty engaging!
Screaming in rage still counts as top-notch engagement.
I know you don't like to run an idea into the ground Joel but please do at least one more video with Borg and Bankman.
Neat
Bro you ain't even watch it yet
@bolongadoodles just watched it. It was neat.
That ending was soo somber. Nice Work!
As a member of the paper bag community, I feel like I'm finally being represented.
Molly's still stuck making videos? Poor thing. I hope someday she can achieve her dream of working at the Shell gas station.
Nice video. I chuckled moderately :)
Im happy to see the van is still livin strong
Goddamn man every time you introduce a new medium into your skit videos you knock it out of the park
Pure gold!
Wow the puppet work was amazing in this video. David looked almost real!
Are you kidding me. That was comedic gold. Well done. Outro nailed it.
Best Joel live action skit in months 😂 the paper hands for the lawyer was such a great touch
the paper hands is such a wonderful detail
The strange microphone echo and constant phone ringing were incredible subtle additions to the ambiance/mood of this video. Bravo!
This may be the greatest video yet.
"It's not everyday that youre a resounding failure, but today is that day" Damn, that is an incredible line. I need to use that in the future.
Those shots at the end in the van, with the reflections and the lighting were really cool! And probably painful to shoot
It's so bittersweet at the end 🥺
The ending was beautiful
Love seeing you collab with Razbuten and got him to dress up for the roll. Crazy!
