i know I'm kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good website to stream newly released series online?
I want you to remember the fact you made that one Johnny Depp joke four years ago
TLDW: Son of an astronaut claims to be "not cool" while making weird metaphors about cities.
I love this channel please never stop making videos
He's not dangerous enough.
Killian Smith his father is Colonel Chris Hadfield. The Canadian astronaut.
Evan's father is Commander Chris Hadfield (noted on the black pages at the end of each video).
Alistair Shaw wow didn’t know! Son of our favorite astronaut!
Y'all need to go back to the first videos on this channel. Fun space stuff there.
6:42
Gonna walk down these steps
oh
ok
6:56
Let's walk down these steps
oh
nevermind
Such polite people, aren't they?
I was cracking up at this hahaha
two heroes of the modern age
r/me_irl
Love how you use locations to analyze human behavior, and human behavior to analyze locations. Great vid!
I got that pfp on discord nice to see a brother out here
6:45 , the guy in the back who started to walk toward us, but didn’t wanted to appear on camera x)
As it turns out, he's a city tour guide in Valparaiso. He was happy to see we were making a video, and we chatted for a bit before moving on. Nice guy!
But what happened to the lady who was in a hurry?? She disappeared! :'O
She didn't want to get stabbed.
XD shes not cool then
Rare Earth Nice to see that wherever you go people are curious about your work! Thanks for sharing all of this with us : )
I loved how you used the Chilean modism Valpo' and the analogisms you used, as always, an amazing video.
Boy, I love Valparaiso. Near Neruda's home I started to climb the hill really high so I could see the entireness of the city, and some dogs from nearby homes followed me and bite me(nothing serious though), probably domestic dogs but still not vaccinated. I didn't took the chance and went to Valaparaiso medical center/kinda hospital thing. Waited a couple hours to get Rabies shot and went home. I mean, if that is not the true Valparaiso tourism experience, I don't know what it is.
And yeah, don't accept a ride from strangers if you can take a bus.
I've been here since the first video in the series and I would just like to say that there has not been a single video from this channel I haven't appreciated in some way. The way you use locations to say something about the human experience is always interesting, and I would just like to say thank you for making these videos. Among all the channels I subscribe to, yours is one of the ones I find truly valuable
Seconded without reservation!
Every episode in this series always makes me think. Some things you talk about on this channel have been comparisons/concept that I've noticed but I've never really delved into, while others are rather obvious ideas that have somehow never crossed my mind at all. Or probably anyone's mind, for that matter. I love Rare Earth because it's not just some travel documentary talking about strange places/people/foods around the world, it also delves into the philosophy of these things - the WHY and not the WHAT. It's original, with original ideas and original views. I wish you had your own show on a platform like Netflix, but I'd hate for you to lose any of your originality or creativity.
Keep it up, man. This content tops anything I've seen on the internet in awhile.
I love how the people in the background at the end don't want to deal with Evan blocking the stairs.
The late, cool *Anthony Bourdain* would kiss you for this. His favorite hallmarks of a great place to visit included discriptors - gritty, edgy, authentic, even dangerous.
Roughly a month after the publish date of this video, Bourdain took his own life. I discovered this video weeks later on June 29th and just subbed to this channel a few days ago.
Seems like serendipity, but I won't push it. I'm still trying to reconcile how such a talented, beloved personality could be in such a dark place, when millions of us imagine that we'd love to be him or have his life, but we are alas, the sum of our experiences and I have never lived on the edge - not purposely.
I love this series so fucking much, It sort of swells my heart to see your love for Chile!!
theclash435 - love your people . I’ve hung out with a few Chileans who come to New Zealand and your like the easiest people to be friends with
As a Chilean who has never met a New Zealander before, I sure hope to visit. I've seen images of your country and it's very similar to parts of ours geographically in our central/southern regions (including the earthquake factors). I'd love to visit someday. I have seen the All Blacks at Twickenham though! That's as close to New Zealand I have ever been so far... and the Lord of the Rings!
As a Liverpool gal I always find it interesting to hear different nationalities talk about the Beatles. Random fact of the day, my first flat was above the Casbah Coffee Club and my landlord was original Beatles drummer Pete Best. Even though the Casbah was closed to the public other than one in a few years special events I used to get lots of tourists knocking on my front door! My parter played guitar in the Pete Best Band and traveled all over the world and I was regularly in the Casbah for private events (New Years eve 1999 was a fun one) under the ceiling stars hand painted by John, Paul, George and Pete. I always felt very strange to be a part of the living history of the place.
Saheeb doesn't like it. Rocking the Casbah, rocking the Casbah.
Without a doubt, one of your better written narratives.
You also have a flare for the way you enter and exit scenes.
Well done dude, well done.
Eric Rusch Sr, literally every single Rare Earth narrative is well written. IDK what you're talking about.
Haha the people who wanted to walk down the stairs at 6:43 and stopped confused to look at what was going on and turned around when they realised someone was filming.
Los héroes de Chile
I like how the camerawork made it look like the woman just disappeared. And I'm here having (very) mild anxiety the whole time about the social inconvenience/awkwardness that was about to ensue.
We are kinda shy too :(
Chileans are shy.
I went to Valpo a few years ago. Rented a house and stayed for almost a week. Hands down one of my favorite travel experiences.
My city, Valparaíso, in Rare Earth :-D
As always, a great video.
Es hermoso ver a Rare Earth en Chile :D
Noooooooooooo pensé que era único :'(
As a tourist who went to Valparaiso (and didn’t even touch Vina del Mar), the most dangerous thing was the narrow, twisty roads.
My first video on this channel. Never subbed so fast in my life.
You will not be disappointed when you dig into the archive, Sebastian. I recommend "The President Who Escaped Cannibalism". Or "The Nuclear Tricycle".. Or.. Any. They're all amazing.
You got a rabbit hole of cool videos to go down. Enjoy your Saturday!
this channel is a goldmine of good videos, my favorite is: "how to destroy people: japan's untouchables" but almost all other videos are great aswell
Go start at the beginning. Disappointment isn't on the menu.
Make sure you read the end card of the videos. Usually good for a chuckle and bonus information
I have lived in both cities and i couldn't agree more with you, the bohemian culture of valpo, the architecture and the food are amazing, but at the end of the day it is just easier and safer to live in viña and to visit valpo from time to time
Born in viňa, but valpo adopted my teen ages and now i consider myself as a 'porteňo'. Valparaíso is a unique city and those who live here can t be separated for long time without regreting his absence. Thank for your necessary foreign analisys, i always consider gringos the class of cool.turists bcuz the enjoyement of valpo over the cute but heartless identity of viňa
ñuñoa
Just dated a guy from Valparaiso.had no idea other than it was on the coast and he painted it, over the sofa in his Hamilton Ontario apartment. His family fled in 1973...
I have been fascinated by Chile ever since I read a book about two lads travelling the length of the country in my teens. I have long since forgotten the name and the authors but the depiction of the country stayed with me.
Your wonderful videos have just thrown diesel on the proverbial fire.
This is my favourite channel on CZcams. Keep up the amazing work.
I can definitely relate to this. I miss how easy and accessible Miami was. You can find parking easily, it generally feels safe, and it's very welcoming to tourists and immigrants from all over the world.
However, it is bland, looks the same everywhere outside downtown core/wynwood/Allapatta etc. Most of it is suburban sprawl or beach front high rises.
And despite being a place where culture meets, its hardly a place where it is made. It is the land of the bland night club.
Compare it to Buenos Aires, where things are a lot more inconvenient, the infrastructure is not nearly as robust, there are constant strikes, and parking is a nightmare, and violence is common place (well, not nearly as much as Rio, where I'm from, but still).
The capacity this city has to generate Art and Culture is beyond anything Miami could ever hope for. A short walk down the street has so much history, art, cusine, life.
I believe adversity creates art. It is the spark we need to truly express our selves beyond "just doing it."
The greatest artists tend to be troubled, haunted people. But these skeletons are exactly what makes their art "cool" or "real", what gives it "soul". Compare it to "bland" and "manufactured" experiences (like Miami) and you hear people say "he doesn't really know what it is like, he hasn't had to live it in his skin", "he's a poser, he's a plastic".
I guess what I'm trying to say is that Bieber will never be a true "bad boy" no matter how much he tries, because it's all "made up" in the eyes of the audience, and ultimately, we make cool what it is. And one of the requisites is that it be "real".
Once I was having an argument in Valparaíso with a friend that doesn’t like Buenos Aires, a city that I absolutely love. He said: it’s depressing to see such a beautiful city going through that stage of decay. I said: then you can’t say that and still like Valpo. His answer shocked me: Valparaíso is not decadent, but a party over the ruins”.
Vina Del Mar is my 20's...Valparaiso is my 30's
Holy shit, this is so well done I cant belive this doesn't have millions of views.
because it was uploaded less than an hour ago
0Clewi0 even then
The show in general I mean.
ufuckingwotm8 i know
Because the best isn't what is more popular.
4:33 "Mas orgasmos menos golpes".
More orgasms less beating? More love less violence?
SmileRobot Probably a reference to violence against women and the chilean feminist movement. Up until recently there were catholic schools for ladies that taught their teenage students that female orgasms did not exist and that masturbation was unnecessary for women and a sin. Plus, women have started to come forward and stand against the abuse, violence and repression they've endured for centuries in this quite conservative country. Femicide has been a very sad and delicate topic for about a decade, since it was instituted as a crime.
@@christianmorales5472 There are times I miss my old Catholic school. Then I read up on stuff like this.
man props to the two people in the final shot that noticed you were filming and gave you space till you were done!
This is interesting timing as the content resonates in multiple ways. For one it's interesting to explore a general cocept of 'coolness'. But I am also on vacation in Indonesia right now (I'm from Europeand as white as it gets) and I love visiting chaotic cities, seeing and taking pictures of hidden temples. I just got a rabies shot because of a stray dog and there is a part of me that thinks this will make an impressive story. But I VISIT these places. I STAY in a nice clean resort outside of town where I can order cocktails, surf youtube and look at rice fields and green Palm forest from the clean luxury of the resort. I will tell the story of getting a rabies shot but I sure as hell don't want to get Rabies and whenthe chance that a stray dog may have bitten me (a little) dawned on me I actually freaked out a bit.
I want to feel like an explorer and someone who really experiences other countries. But deep down I also still crave the artificial safety and comfort that resorts and spas offer european tourists like me. I think you are definately on to something with the duality of popularity/safety and coolness/danger/edge.
Great vdieo as always : )
FelKor Your story reminded me of all the Germans I met when I was living in Germany. Most of them had travelled to 3rd world countries or did so in the time I met them and they all were safety-junkies, something I could never really understand, having been born and raised in a mildly dangerous 3rd world country slum. It seemed to me as though they wanted to walk along the beach but ran from the wetness of the waves, like children do. And this here is the reason they were like that: they want to see and partially experience it because it's 'real' and cool, but don't want to live it, because it's too dangerous and uncomfortable.
Beg to differ about the popularity thing, showed this channel to so many of my friends already :D doubt I'm the only too
Wow. This opened up a whole new avenue of inquiry for me! Love how your videos always bring up a philosophical question to explore. Brilliant work, thank you!
Out of all your incredible videos I believe this is my favorite!!!! Keep up the great work
I lived in Viña del Mar and studied in Valpo for 2 and a half months, you hit the nail on the head! I have such a love for these sister cities that hate eachother. They go hand in hand. They're a perfect example of Chilean society and many others. Cheers!
just found this channel... what a gem! Subscribed!!
You're my favourite CZcamsr, that's a popularity contest you've won.
Yeeah, over 500k subs. Doing pretty well in those popularity rankings.
Your format is truly amazing
Love your work!! Been watching for awhile now, keep it up!
Great work on this one, this week I watched all your videos (since I hadn't already) and I got a say this one somehow still felt slightly better, I dont know why, maybe Im just in a better mood. Great work either way!
Fantastic. Thank you for this series
Great video as always, and an insightful way of framing the visit.
Genius. Never heard an analysis such as this one from two cities. Very very smart. Thank you.
I love the credits
"SHE LOVES YOU, yeah, yeah, yeah, SHE LOVES YOU yeah, yeah, yeah"
I remember how I found Rare Earth through the ISS Space Oddity music video. Although this series might be very different to a guitar in space I like it. It always shines light at places and thoughts that I otherwise wouldn't have stumbled upon. Thanks!
The story you tell here says so much more than any other documentary would, it teaches me something I did not expect to learn.
After seeing all such interesting places in this series, I was not expecting to wake up to an episode about my hometown.
i love that in the ending monologue you delivered you can see people start going down the stairs that you were standing on then realize that you where filming on then they would just turn around and go some other route to avoid the random canadian blocking the road while monologuing
Johnny Depp. I can just picture a grown-ass, 45 year old man, going to leave the house. He pauses; he thinks; he races back inside thinking, "you know what this outfit needs? One more bracelet."
Really like your channel still. High quality, and a great endnote, too.
I love your show, it's like a TED talk but way better.
I'm chilean and I don't like the beach very much so I'm not that familiar with Valpo and Viña (which btw I love to hear you talk about them as we do here) and had never thought of such differences between those two, especially because they're almost one city for how near they are, I love this channel and I love that you did such a long trip here
I'm commander gafe and this is my favourite channel on youtube
Continue to be surprised by the quality of these; it's seems like such a strange and intricate concept, but definitely has a semblance of truth. It's important to be aware of such dualities, thanks for shedding attention on it.
Wow! The philosophy......the parallels drawn are mind blowing....eye opening.
Thank you for choosing a less overwhelming ambient soundtrack this time! :D
This is spot on! You really defined both cities. I love going to Valpo and I have sleep there, but of course Viña is more popular as a safe place. They feed on each other.
There are many levels to this: class, the purpose of art, which art forms and tourists in general. Another great video. Come to Wales.
Love your shows! Your channel is the Valparaiso of CZcams 😉
Edgy, artsy and something us CZcams hipsters want. But at the end your channel co-excist with Planet Earth and Blue Planet.
Keep up the good work! Every new movie you give me gousebumbs
My Chilean brothers ✌
This mini documentary is pure gold.
Dude you blow my mind. Great job.
Love the Video. As a Chilean im guilty of the same crime, I go to valpo but stay in viña. Mostly in the winter thoug, Viña in the summer is a no no for me. Summers I go to zapallar. I really hope you guys had the chance to go to zapallar, for me is one of the most beautiful and calm places in Chile.
And tremendously sanitized and only for the 1%
The difference is that we've come to see 'action' as cool. Rather than what it is, dangerous. We can't change what something is but we can decide how we see it.
Your content is one of the few that I look for, love and live for.
Others are entertainment for the gut.. this is entertainment for my ghost.
actually, crime is higher in viña del mar because it seems safer, but of course for people who look obviously like tourists and easy targets, yeah, valparaíso isn't Safe. But! viña del mar has the biggest slum in the country so it's only clean and safe if you don't look closely. i do agree with the interpretation, but only if you're a foreigner. i have a totally different experience and point of view
This is so interesting. it's like a literary analysis on the difference between cool and popular
Valparaíso sounds very similar to New Orleans LA where I once lived. One day you should do a Rare Earth series of the southern United States.
I love this channels camera work, very unique.
You just got to love this title 👍🏼
I've been in Valpo. March 24 2018.
Never been to viña
I love this channel so much
Good analysis as always!
this is really good writing! loved the video
This was very interesting! Thank you
I'm loving these ofter credit scenes, keep em cumin'.
Another really enjoyable video.
Keep up the amazing work !!!!
Going through all of your videos. Most are very thought provoking. I live near New Orleans, LA,. I couldn't resist thinking that you described almost perfectly the relationship between the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain (Vena) and the Southshore (New Orleans/Valparaiso). However, most people still stay on the Southshore in spite of the "sharp edge".
This is the most postmodern approach to a thesis on cool v popular that I have ever seen. Neat
Fantastic shots
another great video.
It is so great to look at my own country through your foreign eyes. In this series you've captured so much of what Chile feels like without any of it feeling phony or excessively manufactured. I can really feel your love for the country that raised me and it's easy to tell you know it past the usual tourism-guide front. Thanks for showing Chile to the world, both it's beauty and it's pain.
By the way, my last name is actually Pinochet. I'm no fanboy.
Que mala cueva con el apellido compadre. Lo han weviado mucho?
Usualmente es más curiosidad. Pero me han tocado weas extrañas...
I like the end credits :) Each one it's an other gem.
5:08 the bell of that saxophone has definitely seen better days...
anyway, great video as always!
Love how in the last shot, people in the background wanted to use the stairs, then they saw the camera and went away.
As always another interesting video
Get to explore the great unknown from the safety of my office chair. No wonder this is the coolest channel on CZcams.
I love you man. Anyone they let drive the shuttle is cool to me. Thanks from Orlando.
I think you just explained the difference between traveling (experience) and vacationing (relaxation), good video
Loved the lady in the last shot starting to go down the stairs, seeing the video being filmed, and then deciding it's not worth it.
Another Gem. Showing societies reality....funny how it seems to be consistent no matter where you roam.
I love how the people at 6:40 all took a different path when they saw you were filming :)
This whole video essentially describes my travel experience. I always want the cool, but everyone I go with always wants the popular.
Wish I had the friends to go with to all these awesome places :(
Great video. For music lovers You need that standard of clean/sanitized/accessible music its necessary for the edgier music to seem different and interesting. we complain about how same sounding/safe pop music is but it actually strengthens my connection and appreciation for my favorite music that happens to sounds less safe. It’s kinda a eternal internal contradiction people who love music have. I’ve given this thought over the last year or so.
Wow! I love your ability to see connections in modern world
Nice episode once again. Take a look at your sensor (or lense), on the right side you have 3 dirt spots to clean ;)
brilliant
Balance. Without it, life wouldn't exist. Simple answer to many questions.
Valpo was definietly that sort of city! Had this sense of unease and wonder while having magnificent sights. All the senses were heightened and is a trip i will never forget! I was warned to not go there multiple times because of the crime...and certainly encountered it but somehow the risk was worth it
This reminds me so much of "Aftershock", a movie with Eli Roth.
wow such a great production, will you be travelling to Peru?
City life analyst. Love him. It’s
We got told to stick to a tiny area of Patong in Thailand but we didn’t and ended up finding some of the best Thai food cafes that looked like shot but served 5 star food. I still have no idea what I actually ate but it was delicious
4:13 AHHH!!! Real monsters!
