Casually Screaming About Brandon Rogers

It's been a long time since I last posted a "Casually Screaming" post. I thought I'd take a break from writing about music and write about something else that consumes my life, YouTube.

I watch YouTube almost as much as I listen to music. One of my favorite YouTubers is Brandon Rogers. If you read my "The Only YouTubers I Watch Religiously" post, you'll remember Brandon ranked #3.

WARNING: EVERY VIDEO IN THIS POST IS OFFENSIVE - VIEW AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION

I got into his videos either my junior or senior year of high school. I believe that the first video I saw was Mad Tea Party, his Alice in Wonderland parody.

For some reason "Take your chair with you!" is the one quote from that whole video that stuck out to me. When I briefly had my Brandon fan account on Instagram, it was my username. Of course, I had previously seen memes and vines of clips from his videos such as "Try me, bitch" and the one where he bangs his head on the stove. You know the one.
I think I enjoy Brandon's videos because he still captures how YouTube used to be and he is not afraid to offend people with his videos, which I love especially since a lot of things - especially on YouTube - are PC now.
Though I will say my only criticism is that I only wish his videos were longer, but I'm not going to be mad if he never changes that. He gives us quality content.

His inactive posting schedule isn't bad, because he's always leaving us wanting more.

I really got into him when I was in college. I was dealing with depression so I turned to his videos a lot. I made a playlist of all his videos - at that time - and watched that playlist almost daily. My poor college roommate had to deal with that every single day for like 4 months.

When he had his show, Magic Funhouse, I really wanted to support him, but I was a poor unemployed college student who couldn't afford the subscription on the streaming site that had his show, but I supported him in spirit.

I did keep up with his Facebook show, Stuff & Sam. It was iconic. I very much religiously still keep up with his YouTube uploading. I'm pretty sure I have shared every video he's done since I became a fan on Facebook. And I will continue to do so.

I don't know if I have a favorite video, but I did enjoy his earlier videos where he recited the Jabberwocky poem and the bit from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when they were in the tunnel. I wouldn't mind if he brought that style back.

Brandon's content is iconic, hilarious, offensive and he's earned his spot as my favorite YouTube comedian and one of my comedians period. Really wish I could have seen his stand-up in New York, but maybe next time he comes to the east coast, I'll catch him.

If you're not easily offended, check out his content. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I really enjoy his videos and I cannot wait to see what the future has in store for him.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
