that’s a little rude to say i feel they all carried their weight very well and where entertaining and nice to watch!
@@sophiasnotsully how is it rude? all i said was the guys really funny and its worth watching something just for him. lowkey dane and anthony are just bonuses with brandon there

It's fun to see that Dane has found themself in their identity, I wish them all the best in their transition journey
I knew there was something different about him!
About them, but yeah. Is their name still Dane, or did they change it?
@@VanNessy97 Their name is Dane. Since they're introduced as Dane here, and their name on Instagram and KZhead is Dane
@@VanNessy97 I assume their name is Dane. Since they're introduced as Dane here, and their name on Instagram and KZhead is Dane
Journey of pretending
I swear every time I see Anthony’s “Inhale” tattoo, I remember to take a deep breath and it feels nice 😂
I'm glad I'm not the only one who did that
It’s so comforting I love it ❤😂
I had the pleasure of meeting Brandon back in 2020 (before the pandemonium) at playlist live. It was like 2 am in the lobby and he had just gotten food or something but he and the person he was with stopped and talked with me for like an hour. Truthfully the sweetest human alive
this is exactly how i met him as well. at 2am in the playlist live lobby in 2016. he talked to me for over 20+ min. and he was so sweet. i saw him the next day and he recognized me. it was something i’ll never forget
@@jacquelinebrown3707 so it’s confirmed that Brandon randomly spawns in hotel lobbies at 2 am LMAO

It would be so insane if you were able to convince Jenna Marble, to come on your channel to get interviewed by you.
Yes please!!! 🎉
PLEASE ANTHONY
Today is my birthday and I got no subscribers Not fair! Completely unfair!
This right here!
I would scream cry throw up
Actually makes me emotional thinking about Anthony's progression as a creator. I used to watch smosh and enjoyed seeing those two making fun skits and whatnot. Now seeing Anthony creating the stuff he does now, idk it just makes me proud of him.
me too dude, Growing up and seeing Anthony grow up too it’s like a true journey.
I love seeing these faces so much. It’s like a trip down memory lane

I JUST binged all of Helluva Boss! ❤❤ His VA was fantastic and it was such an enjoyment to watch because there is so much love poured into it. I often wonder how many of Blitzø’s lines are improved 😂
if you haven’t watched it yet, you’ve GOT to watch hazbin hotel!! they take place in the same universe but are separate! it’s so good!!!
@@kirbysthiccthighs I watched Hazbin first! I’m super late to the party 🙈 But I’m enjoying them both so much nonetheless!
"All these skinny withered legends down in my basement."
Omg Dane Boe! It's been so long since I've seen that name, glad to see them seeming to be doing well Edit: I'm later in the video now and I'm so happy to hear that they're doing so much better away from the public eye and away from creating for distraction :)
He got his own episode of flashback with smosh with Ian and Anthony in the main smosh channel

How is Brandon Rogers not aging?
he somehow looked older in his early videos
Fr!
He's aging, just not in a bad way.
vampire
it's the basement people he sucks life essence from
“Not verbally, physically” 😂😂
BAHAHAHAHA
actually so cool that anthony has created two completely different forms of successful content on the platform. the OG of OGs!
I remember in 4th grade at our scholastic book fair everyone was really into the little erasers that were available at the checkout. One of the erasers was an orange with a face and I thought my little brother would like it. We played with it everyday, and eventually found the Annoying Orange channel. We would sit in front of the family computer and watch the episodes. We are about to graduate now, and I cannot believe it has been so long. I grew up with Annoying Orange, thank you Dane.
I grew up on Dane's stuff. So happy seeing them do well.
I'm still a fan and I'm 19 I grew up with annoying orange as well lol
@CameoScooby i'm 24. It's been a while since I watched Orange.
Still a fan, and I usually talk to him on Gmail.
@@SamSphinx wow
@@MTEMCA them*
I remember seeing some of Brandon's early vids & being SO EXCITED bc he's from my hometown (and it's a crusty dusty conservative town, so like, it's awesome to see chaos like him form from the same things like I did 😂). Same with a Minecrafter that used to post, but idk if they post much anymore (I used to hide away from the rest of campus with this person across from me in a teacher's classroom while we all awkwardly ate lunch on the couches she had & hung with our small groups of friends).
My farts are better than Anthony's farts
"crusty dusty conservative town" 😂 lmaoo
Anthony talking about helluva boss, never thought I’d see it
They did talk about it in the last interview with Brandon Rogers
Also Ian and Anthony recorded for Helluva btw!
@@padmeamidala5521 when?
@@padmeamidala5521were they in any specific episode?
@@GiselleGarcia-yf5rq no their episode hasn't aired yet. They're probably going to be in season 3:)
14:53 Dane's "Wow... you were a BABY"
I love how Brandon carries the conversation and gives Dane Boe an opening for quite a few conversations. It seems very kindhearted to me :)
Seeing Dane’s whole face instead of just their disembodied mouth and eyes on an orange is surreal!
dane and anthony are the duo I never knew i needed
As soon as I saw Brandon rogers in the thumbnail I immediately clicked the video
literally me
My farts are better than Anthony's farts
@@p-__ wtf
@@p-__the hell?
I love seeing Brandon in content of any form. He has such a brilliant mind. Everytime he posts new content or is in someone’s content it’s like a life reset for me, I get to relax and watch and just recharge.
this was such an good episode. three foundational figures in my childhood getting together and laughing; it’s a joy to see.
We appreciate hearing their insights. I guess it's always up to the OGs with either staying on or leaving the platform. They have significant amount of experience to basically go the next level.
My farts are better than Anthony's farts

Have you ever done a video about a day with people with epilepsy? It is so hard to live through, I'd love to hear from someone else who goes through something similar
it's so true how important youtube is to a lot of people, I started watching in 2013/14 and to this day some of the people and channels are my comfort people and videos and I use youtube so much to unwind and deal with life and take a break from the world and I can only imagine how many people have had it on through really tough times, but also how difficult that is for y'all to take in and grasp completely
These 3 people have shaped my childhood, as well as hundreds of millions of others, I'll never forget seeing a new Smosh episode, seeing a new brandon rogers skit, which were the first youtube videos I could show to my Mom and she would laugh just as much as I would, and when Annoying Orange teamed up with Tobuscus (way before the controversies of Toby) it was all I could hear about, incredible video, I hope this becomes a regular series where you bring in more OG KZheadrs and even more assumptions!
Love Brandon Rogers videos anytime I’m sad angry or depressed I’ll watch his videos & then I’m back to laughing & smiling
I think Ryan Higa could make a comeback. Teehee 😂
He still streams on twitch (or at least he did for a while after stepping away from KZhead)
@@ephraim_ last stream was yesterday so i'd say yes lol
@@EllaCaron oh ok bet 😂
He is too intelligent for this era of YT. This time doesnt deserve him tbh
I cannot stress enough how these three individuals so dramatically shaped this platform (as well as my childhood) Keep doing what you're doing. We love you guys!
Never watched a ton of KZhead as a kid, but I remember being shown videos by all three of these people. Nowadays it’s my escape, and I’ve fallen in love with Helluva Boss and Anthony’s interviews. It’s so amazing to watch these people talk about their jobs which they love with such joy and kindness.
This just came to me....brandon rogers is like the freddie mercury of youtube just the same vibe and feel
true!
Its interesting how youtube has a culture (and subculture) of its own, and quite the history. Not to mention the changes over time, from youtubers interacting with the platform (calling out, etc). It’s become something that can be studied in depth.
once a youtuber, always a youtuber. ✨
Okay not to be that person, but ima be that person. 💀 Low-key Annoying Orange was one of the only things that distracted me from all the trauma in my early teen years 💀
I can't express enough how much I've learned about other people experiences by watching this amazing youtube channel . Also I've definitely seen personal growth in myself . I genuinely want to thank Anthony and all of the people who put effort in making PRESSALIKE and ASSUMTIONS videos . Thank you so much you are all doing an incredible job ❤️❤👍👍
this may be the most charismatic group of people i've seen sitting at a table. all of you bounce off each other so well. i was dying laughing from start to finish and related so much to dane and her distractions from her identity. smosh was something that got me through really lonely parts of my teen years, and helluva boss is absolutely my and my best friend's favorite animated show. fantastic video!
Brandon is a bloody legend, big big props
I'd be interested in seeing (more) Minecraft KZhead people being interviewed. I think it could be interesting to see someone from Hermitcraft, a speedrunner and someone from a more modded experience being interviewed in this format.
Now this is an episode Imma watch entirely 🔥
My farts are better than Anthony's farts
@@p-__what the you again why are you commenting everybody’s comment
Love this style of interview and to hear more from Anthony!
My farts are better than Anthony's farts
Anthony being asked a question and uncounciously interviewing the rest of the group is my favorite anime trope
Y'all need to make a video together. Y'all make an amazing trio
this video and this group of people was such a delight to watch
OMG I remember annoying orange on cartoon network and to see Brandon and Anthony on FBE now that was a ERA that I remember fondly
Great. Fantastic. A conversation between the hot one from smosh, a performer I only know from the react channel circa 2012, and an orange's teeth was the thing I needed to hear most at this point in my creative career. What a time to be alive.
I haven't seen or thought about daneboe in years and wow I can see a lot has changed since then. Good for them
Since when is Brandon Rogers irrelevant!
This was a wonderful conversation, I think these three are just really sincere. Also I really enjoyed Brandon's insight, even though I havent really watched his skits compared to the other two.
I LOVE all the creators in this video, especially since I grew up watching all three during different points in my life (and still today!) I'm really glad to see that you're all still happy in what you do :) P.S I thought you guys were all, like, the same age! When Dane mentioned that they blew up in their early 20s I was like "...wait a minute 😂"
The interview collab we didn’t know we all needed
would absolutely love to see more round table videos of various creators, this was such a great video
We love Blitzø
this is a trio i didn't know i needed omg
I'm only passing through to say Brandon will never be irrelevant. One of the most dynamic talents I've ever been exposed to, I think the right situation (Helluva Boss is such a huge platform, but he deserves even bigger), Brandon's ceiling is infinite
I was just watching the (second) Brandon Rogers interview earlier today and I see this just came out! Talk about coincidences.
Love seeing Brandon so interested in what Dane has to say and their experience as an OG KZheadr. I just love the amount of mutual respect and admiration between them all 🥹
I think when it boils down, you three got to where you are now because you all had fun and enjoyed doing what you work on. Having fun with it is the only true way to find success.
great great conversation. could have watched much longer. Really love this format for you.
Finally seeing Anthony being interviewed is just chef's kiss
WAIT DANE BOE DID ANNOYING ORANGE?? that was like a part of my childhood what…
They did
Brandon has been a staple of my childhood for years, he deserves a break
I've missed seeing Dane on camera! I'm glad they're doing well!!
I really like the new assumptions series. Stick with it
The way i started crying so hard when they were talking about how they feel abt affecting so many ppls childhoods like pls started bawling my eyes out
I love OG Anthony and Ian. You guys were the coolest when I was in high school. And so funny and so stylish.
I love Brandon, he has such a beautiful soul.
I hope none of them ever stop annoying orange was my shit growing up and I lost touch with it but I have fond memories of watching the videos with friends and my sister at the time I would watch endless videos after school and whatever day I had it ended awesome because of not only their videos but Anthony’s and Brandon’s content too. They are such amazing humans and we need more kinda funny creative minds out here in the world
Brandon you've always got voice acting to fall back on if you go to prison or lose your lower half!!😅
You should do an episode on lucid dreamers
anthony really got these people ping pong-ing between his production companies and i love it
I am glad that Anthony interact with the older KZheadrs…
I gotta see more of Anthony being interviewed!!
Imagine if we got an inverted version, assumptions about upcoming youtubers FROM og ones or like bigger youtubers
This video was so funny you really need to do a part 2
Honestly Anthony could make a really good therapist, because even through a screen he gives off a calming energy that is ready to listen to others and their problems.
Im not surprised to see dane on assumptions since anthony just had them on smosh. And fun fact, anthony had purple rain guy on recently too 🎉
This is so weird I did not recognize Brandon's voice as Blitzo from helluva Boss until the comment about it, and now I can't STOP hearing it 😅
I actually relate to some of the moments in Helluva Boss that are heartwarming
These these together are just great, idk
OG KZheadrs for sure in a very good way, this is great to watch video :) 👍👍
The cool thing with the anoying orange, well before I was on the internet, the annoying orange show would play on tv so I watched that on tv and its only in the last couple of years that I realised that the show was actually from youtube
Bradon Rogers being peak as always
I never thought I'd hear deep conversation about the lore of the annoying orange
Ah I thought Magic Funhouse! was just a fever dream
seeing this reminds me of how i got into daneboe"s videos was through watching gag film videos
I saw the thumbnail and expected this episode to be about Ethoslab as there is this “washed up” joke going around about him in the past year.
LMFAOO
was wondering how far i had to scroll before etho's name popped up... not too far
By next year it will be smosh's 20'th year of being a youtube mainstay🤯🤯
You guys showed us your individuality by doing you online and that helped us find ours!!
these 3 on a table. never expected it
