Hello everybody! After viewing this post, I too decided to give this 'Poison Poprocks' show a chance. While at first it appeared that the second host is a little strange, I found him strangely charming. I have gone through a lot of time and bandwidth to find out just what makes this guy 'appealing'. I began by watching back on the previous episodes of this 'poison poprocks' show, where I did manage to find not just a couple, but many moments in which this "Dave" fellow showed potential to be both humerus and knowledgeable. After continuing my journey through the rabbit hole of 'Dave's potential' I found myself on one of his personal channels in which he reviews video games, using different characters to represent the different sub cultures of 'video gamers'. While he obviously lacks the resources to produce high quality content visually, the content itself proved to be quite entertaining and creative. Truly a great example of what you can do without a high budget. Again, through these videos I did find him growing increasingly charming, and quirks and nuances began to grow on me. Being able to show a great deal of work into writing his reviews and sketches, while still showing out takes and moments of improvised banter, shows a level of reality and almost vulnerability that a lot of youtubers are generally afraid to show. This almost breaks down the wall between the characters and us as the viewer, making him seem accessible and pleasant. I found that the more I watched and the more I saw of his personal side, through these small slips of 'vulnerability' it almost seemed that I was growing attached to him as a friend more than an entertainer in my computer screen, and soon it became like I was watching an old friend. I later moved back to the channel in discussion, the "poison poprocks review" and found that his performance on the show was not just entertaining but a window into their personalities. I found myself watching episode after episode, and after each one not only did I find out about some weird movie they watched, but also more about them and their likes and dislikes. While at first I didn't care about these guys and their stupid opinions, I discovered that I was now watching it as if I was hanging out with a couple of buddy's who are telling me about a weird movie they had just watched, and I believe this is where their appeal is. While in my group of friends there are people who I agree with and disagree with, people who are weird and people who are seemingly normal, when we all come together we always have a great time, especially when we have disagreements. I think that watching these different people, who differ from me and each other, is some how comforting and it makes sense that these two people would have such different dynamics. Because they're buddies, just like me and my mates. They never come across as actors in a paid gig, no, just two dudes hanging out. I think this is where I think I prefer Dave to the other guy. The first guy seems to be trying to force the show along sometimes and give it structure, while Dave just seems like a good mate making conversation. Though, like with Dave's personal channel, it's the candid moments that show their human side that keep me watching, and I suggest you keep watching too, Link Skywalker. They're rad dudes just doing their thing and having fun, and that's what I like in my life.
