Outtakes to our newest "Jake and Amir" episode, now online!

Gary V on the open sea… and don’t forget the sauce 👌

There’s no way you guys did the straddle in one take. I’m sure that’s a whole separate video.

The greatest line from this goes to Jake. “That’s that fuck you blockchain! That’s that non-refundable blockchain! That’s that non-fungible for your bunghole shiiit! Sorry, brother!”

and this is why the people who voted for NFTs to be released first? were RICE. yeah.

There's just no way any of my friends will understand-- nor forgive me-- when I start finishing thoughts with the monocle and saying, "and don't forget the sauce."

Wow great episode! The idea of doing it as a spiritual sequel to ‘: Bitcoin’ was an admirable approach. The beginning of the episode indicated something to me about the approach to the newer episodes; the way that commercial properties (that are still somebody’s creative vision) are run into the ground by taking what is unique about it and extracting it until its dry haunts the creative process of individuals on any scale. Jake and Amir is a comedic premise which put its ylem not in the property proper, nor an esoteric evaluation of an ephemeral core, but in the hands of its viewers – the J&A fanbase, in their reception, play an integral role in the production of hahas. And in that way, up until the 1:20 mark, the sketch leans into this idea – it mostly repeats lines from earlier Jake and Amirs in slightly varied patterns, playing with inflection and framing on such a minor scale that it’s essentially the same joke. This is, I think, rather impressive, as it effectively shifts the locus of enjoyment; I find myself saying, “Oh that line is from that one If I Were You with Geoff and Riley where Amir does this excellent Pizza Pirate bit”, or “I guess that way of speaking Jake is doing there is a bit that they started in 2014 and has really evolved”, or “Oh damn they put the ‘_ is like _ but _’ line from that one J&A video next to the ‘random moment of Jake shifting from incredulity to consideration’ in order to play the ‘Amir sets up a nonsensical, but logically sound tirade that leaves Jake to critique errata and minutia’”. It’s a natural evolution of trope-comedy, that takes audiences wanting to hear their favourite lines said in new ways, or for their favourite comedians to do the same bits over again, and lets them do the discovering in their heads. But I think ultimately that has its limit – like how many of those videos would you really have to make: I’d guess one a year, and I’d be pretty satisfied. And then from the moment it’s insecure Jake, you guys ramp the fucking acting two tiers up – every little bit Jake was doing FELT new even if some of them were clear callbacks to the character (and honestly it might just be Jake’s memory of the character changing or reacting chemically with his older and more evolved tastes). And the physical comedy, Jesus Christ, maybe I was just not expecting it because the first half indicated it was going to be a compilation of callback jokes, but it was so good. Literally reversing the physical bit of Amir carrying Jake backwards with the straddle was deeply hilarious. That monocle thing, the unique and new characteristics Amir takes on as the straight man, and the goddamn gorilla shit was amazing. Strictly speaking, this video has a pretty weak plot; your 2012–2015 videos of this length would usually go somewhere significantly more unexpected and engaging, and then usually add a twist on top of that. I think ‘: Bitcoin’ is a good example, like when Jake is getting Amir to sign over his Bitcoin through the ‘weird bullying’ and talking him through the boring logistics, that came out of nowhere and gave the episode a pretty tangible plot. In this episode, it’s pretty obvious what’s going to happen, Jake threatens to the sign-over a few minutes before he actually does it, and it’s not like it goes to someone in particular who comes back (as it shouldn’t have, that would make the video overly long). But I think it’s a pretty smart idea to, instead of trying to top every plot and keep heightening and stretching the world, there’s a more relaxed, “Here’s what’s going to happen in this episode” feel, with the acting taking the spotlight and stealing the show. Very glad for this acknowledgement, it’s making for great content.

What is this? Some sort of weird thesis of sorts. Bad term paper? Nah bad U(niversity).

Ricky Stevens

Don’t just say, “it’s great”.

Might I make one critique? I apologize if this is out of place/line. These videos would be 200% better - exactly, I ran the calculation myself - if the lines were delivered slightly faster. If you watch one of these vids on YouTube (video sharing website) at 1.25x speed it feels like a regular Jake and Amir. The jokes feel mildy awkward at this speed, just barely too slow. The quick hits hit much quicker at quicker cadence. Please remind me of my place if I'm out of it (said place)!

Ryan Healy

I feel like Amir has been a little too normal in these recent videos.

Luke

These are old, weak, cowardly men. That juice they had in their youth has left them as the head at an unsettling pace towards their grave. You can feel the realisation that they will soon be closer to their death, than they are to their birth, in ever video and hack tweet from an only recently verified account. They don't have the energy anymore. The magic sauce is gone. Overall, I give "NFT" an B+!

Carlos La Borde

The "Concerned Caveman" bit was amazing holyshit

Nofro

jake singing johnny cash was surprisingly good

Sean

More monkey-based Jake please

Ricky Stevens

Holy guac. I think you may be on to something. I just watched the video again at this speed and I have to say I enjoyed it better the second time. They just need to talk 1.25 times faster naturally and they are golden.

Jack Satchell

I've really enjoyed these new episodes, this being my favourite by far, but I think there may be some truth in this. Although I think it may also/mainly be a consequence of editing. The original videos, certainly in the later years, we're so tightly edited, with each line almost interrupting the last, giving a real break-neck velocity to the jokes. I feel if they brought back that rapid-fire style to the editing it would do more justice to the hilarious writing and feel more like the J&A of a few a years ago.

Daniel Espina

That's some Andy Serkis like movement.

When I first read this post I thought you a coward and a fool, but then I tried it, and Ho lee GUAC, you where right! Upvote this philosopher pimp.
