  1. TYTU is as informative as E! News. Maybe it cant be helped because they’re from LA. Hey, if the video was up I wouldnt have time to talk crap about your programming, or your fancy left coast lifestyles. Seriously, John I goes from effective anchorman on TYT to uninteresting fashion critic on TYTU. Common room is a great show, though. Its got that college dorm feel coupled with entertaining opinions and discussions. I wanna see the Steve O and Dave K hour. At least they should weigh in on Supreme Court cases. Those homies keeps it real. And Wysocki, too. He did a great job of finding common ground for Cenk and Ana’s awesome and interesting argument. Some of my friends got their first impression of TYT watching that argument, and were pretty impressed by the authenticity of the unscripted honest argument. So was I; they both made great points.

    1. In my humble opinion (which could be trully wrong) Iadarola has presented himself as shallow and neutral and now that TYTU and the second hour has stooped to E! level he presents his true, over educated and cultivated face … at the least from what I’ve seen in his last participations in the first hour. Sad, very very sad.

    1. LOL. “If you don’t pay you’ll get the show BEFORE paying members”. Brought a whole new meaning to paradox advertising.

      1. Fucking ridiculous. Must be the location and equipment being used. Of course this change would’ve fucked something up,

  2. I wouldn’t mind the upload delay so much if you could at least get YouTube to allow streams from Germany. The entire live stream (as well as you new TYTplus channel) is blocked for the entire country. I have seen other YouTube live streams work, so it must be something specific to the TYT channel.

    1. It’s most likely because of the billion views party last night. They did the show live from there and who knows what time they got to bed. I’m sure they’ll put it up as soon as they can.

      1. oh, gotcha. just wish they would communicate these things. Even if encoding video has issues, you can put a piece of text on your website.

  3. England and Turkey are two time zones away from each other… I hope they continue that research. It might answer the Asian question….

  4. Good show. Interesting. The one about the bear — I’m just curious, generally, because last November I was attacked by a Doberman and seriously injured. Not a wild animal, but capable of serious harm. I must have been naive. I love animals, and animals have always liked me. I just took this for granted all my life. I was the person animals felt very comfortable with. Domesticated pets, absolutely, and even other animals — once a baby llama broke away from his parents to come to me and stare into my eyes — strange and a little scary. They have extremely long eyelashes and she was about 1/4″ from my eyes. Now I feel like I was an idiot, maybe an asshole. I knew the Doberman. I was staying in the house where he lived and I loved him. I took him for a walk and when he took off after a squirrel, he dragged me down into the street. (I was holding his leash.) Once down, he jumped on me, bit me all over my face. He weighed more than half my weight. A Fedex guy got him off me, but he smelled the blood and jumped up to tear off my bottom lip. I guess I’ll never feel the same way about animals again. His owner has blamed me, but I really don’t see how it was my fault, while I wonder if, somehow, I was to blame for not understanding animals well enough. I had plastic surgery and my face doesn’t look so different, but I still have nightmares. I’ll never see animals the same way.

    1. Holy shit. that’s terrible. You should get yourself a nice loyal, smart, friendly lab to help you get over it. Best dogs in the world. I always found Dobermans to be a bit unpredictable and dumb, though a buddy had one that seemed nice enough.

  5. 1,600 pounds to go to a digital detox?

    How about get a tent, pack a backpack, grab some food…and go backpacking for a week. Problem solved for waaaayyy less than 1,600 pounds…and you can reuse that gear over and over.

  6. John, I’m sorry, but you need to shut up about using sex to sell stories. You run TYT University, in which every other story is based on something “sexy”.

    1. TYT university isn’t even university news anymore, i unsubbed months ago, non-stop sex-related stories with tits and ass in the thumbnails.

      1. Hmm…I haven’t watched a TYTU video in at least 6 months. Not because I haven’t perused, but because the content has not warranted a click. Quite frankly, the video titles make me feel uncomfortable and dirty. The titles and thumbnail photos scream of mildly titillating low pop culture crap designed to elicit the clicks of bored teens.

        I also noticed the incessant (>3 times in the past month) bragging about all the TYTU views and subscribers. The thought to unsubscribe failed to crossed my mind. Thank you for alerting me of a way to absolve myself of any association with TYTU.

    2. I stopped watching TYTU after John reveled in the fact that he didn’t know who John Wooden was (http://youtu.be/1YRbbsMpdwo). And I enjoyed how Rick and Scorcher came down hard on him. However, once the majority of viewers supported his ignorance of remedial college sports knowledge, I knew TYTU was a lost cause aimed at the lowest common denominator.

      Since the sanity on TYTU (Kim Horcher) has left, the clicks and subscribers have increased at the expense of dignity and quality.

      John’s brilliant pinch hitting (baseball term meaning substitution) during the first hour has won my respect and attention. This hour served as a reminder of why I found his hard news coverage so impressive. Based on TYTU’s content and presentation, it was a shocker.

      1. Dude, who gives a fuck who John Wooden is? And I hate who everyone in the studio is ready to lynch your ass if you’re not insanely into sports. One of the few things I don’t like about TYT. And Kim came off as a little less hot when it was clear that she was this rabid basketball fan.

      2. I cannot understand why and how it is that people can get excited about professional sports. I was interested in basketball in early teens, then i got over it by 15-16, this is because i used to play basketball for fun. Now, i’m into cars and i watch the F1, but can barely get excited over it. Its hard to stay interested and the only thing that makes it fun is the antics that happen off the race track and the way that involves itself in the racing (influence etc)… so, every other sport, so boring and uninteresting, who gives a damn? If i play a sport, thats fine, it benefits me. but if youre just watching, it doesnt benefit you, just them. and to hear there are people who actually base their respect of others on how much ‘sports’ they know is sad. I base my respect of others (partially0 based on how little they know about sports. a girl who’s into aussie rules (aussie football over here) is immediately an unattractive bogan to me (on first impression basis) and that impression will most likely persist forever.
