rainie in a tanktop vs the guys in coats is KILLING me LMFAO
the life of a woman
Colorado coded.
Way to make it weird sis she's from Colorado @@jennachack
Rainie is a Colorado girly💁🏻♀️
I embody her on all levels lmfao the Rainie of Canada👋
You all should do a daddy’s favorites and mommy’s favorites series where you do hobbies that parents love (Pickleball, farmers market, flower arranging)
This is such a good idea!!!
Honestly, I would love to watch the TryPod go to a farmers market
And miles so his mum can teach modern dance!!!
Oh I LOVE this
I love this idea!!
I think it would be so fun for a mini-season of WAR where it features guests as contestants and the guys judging. Like maybe an episode featuring Kwesi, Jonny (not doing baking) or Miles, Jared, and Marissa, and another episode featuring Try Staff, especially Rainie.
Yes!!! This yes!
God I hope so 😂😂😂
I know that Keith and who shall not be named did judge on WAR before but they should judge together as 3 judges please I hope this happens!!!
Jonny will have no idea what he’s doing in a savoury episode 🤣
And they could do past recipes the guys already did so it wouldn't skim down the content, someone needs to get this pinned cause I'd watch the hell out of this!
Rainie in a tank top while the guys are all dressed cozy. The contrast is hilarious. The Clingsberry crunch throw back 😂
I mean, Keith grew up in Tennesee and Zach in NYC. They aren't exactly the warmest places during the winter either lol
its the colorado vibe vs the la vibe XD
Zach could fit so many forks in his pocket if he just applied himself.
As a chronically ill neurodivergent person without context for this statement, this sentence is confusing because forking is getting rid of stuff that drains your energy.
@@ellissardorian7834maybe watch the video
The commenter is joking about the large pocket in Zach's pants, as discussed in the podcast. Zach, Keith and Rainie joke about him putting cutlery in it @@ellissardorian7834
I really do love the extended cast. Kwesi, Rainie, Johnny, Jared. Especially Jared. Jared is contagiously hilarious.
And miles! I know he left but he’s still such a gem as a guest.
Don’t forget hot girl summer ..pum pum girl Joyce!!!😂
Jared is my favorite!!
I always thought Jared was funny, but I really became a fan after the dress video! He seems like such a sweet guy, and a great sport in WAR
I honestly love hearing them discuss the business side of their industry and the highs and lows they experience. I really want them to have Shane, Ryan, and Steven come on the pod to talk about their own perspective of running a CZcams channel and company
Love the Watcher guys!!
I’m a huge mythical/watcher fan so after seeing all of these collabs with Josh lately I need this
I love Zach’s little travel documentaries. I hope he continues to look for more oddities and weird tourist traps to cover. :)
yes please i loved the clown hotel and times square videos!
Me too I love his random adventures he should do a travel series with Kwesi and Jared go to interesting places and do weird things together 😂
I also love when they try different snacks or food from other countries, they should do more of those.
Me too!
As a stage manager, watching Rachel work is so fascinating. I'm so glad the boys highlight all the amazing people who make things like WAR happen.
Love you guys. So excited for the new year! 🥰
More of Phoning it In!! Love love loooved that series
& hoping to see more of Eugene next year 💛💛
More of JohnnyCakes please lol
GUYS.......... I'D LOVE TO COME SAY HI
Make it happen boys
OH SHIT❤
😮😮😮❤❤❤
KEITH ZACH RAINIE LOOK!
RACHEL!?
I know I’m not the only one who has been loving this era of new & different content and I’m so excited for what the future holds!
I agree they are so much better together along with their content without you know who, is really unfortunate that so many fans stopped watching and that their subscribers haven’t gone up and views have gone down. 😢
They entertain me so much😂 I hope things can really improve in the next year for them.
YES!! I would LOVE to see a revival of Without Instructions with our new cast of people too!
It's been nice to see "new" faces become "familiar faces" on the channel. Kwesi and Popkin on without a recipe are delightful chaos. I send my sister the link to probably every video that Jonny is in. The forest preschool video was one of my favourites of the entire year. I'd love to Jimmy Wong in more videos too ❤
PLEASE GIVE JOHNNY A MILLION SHOWS HES INCREDIBLE
YALLLLLL GIVE JOHNNY HIS OWN SHOW
I'm sad to hear Rank Court wasn't well received. I absolutely loved that show, it had the energy of "Try Guys Proper" but was new and fresh and having Eugene in it was delightful. 😭
I guess the first ones was so good the other topics was not that great tho. Love the dynamic of matt, eugene, keith and zach on that one rank court vid
SAME! I thought it was such a lighthearted show that I could just sit and giggle with.
I really wasn’t a fan of rank court. It felt like a worse version of rank king which I preferred
A real clingsberry crunch has gotta be the big mystery announcement
I would buy clingsberry crunch merch
I HOPE they are making this a real product. More over feastables.
*move lol
we want more puppet debate! that show was one of the best this year!!!
For what it's worth, the talent that you have recruited as rotating 4th "Guys" have all turned out to be fantastic! Even the episodes where 2 people from that rotating team fill out the foursome are great.
I am not really your target demographic because I'm closer in age to your parents, but I have really enjoyed seeing Kwesi, Johnny, Marissa, and Jared. And if an old broad like me finds them entertaining, then younger viewers probably like them even more.
The three of you simply cannot be in every single video and still maintain manageable lives. You are in the busiest of your young adult years, starting your families, and taking other entertainment job opportunities when they present themselves.
So don't feel bad about the changes. You found some great people to help carry the load, and the nameless entity who used to be in your videos (and complicated things immensely for your company recently) is not missed.
Honestly, some of the best podcasts are the ones with behind the scenes and business discussions. Totally my favourite - I love seeing behind the curtain and more of your creative process.
same! i find it SO interesting and i learn so much!
I love that Zach is wearing Cheesecake Factory merch 😂
It’s actually really interesting hearing more of the behind the scenes stuff and business side that goes on
I love seeing this more emotional, vulnerable and at the same time, business-savvy, badass side of y'all. ❤ I could sense your love for your audience and making us laugh so much that I was literally sobbing. 😂
I know that this year didn’t go as you had planned but… I genuinely enjoyed each episode you released this year. Watched every single one & really enjoyed special guests like Johnny, kwesi, Jared & Marissa. Truly!!
A live plog suggestion: Rent a bus, fill the bus with fans (who bought exclusive tickets), drive around the city while recording a live pod and talking to the fans. And of course, drive the bus to a Starbucks drive-thru to pick up (pre-ordered cha-chas?) drinks for all the passengers!
If its a non-SB coffee shop i fully support that idea!
Zach talking about his “why”is honestly so deep and moving. I want to sit down and have coffee with him so bad because he’s so interesting and intelligent. I really look up to you Zach. What a cool human.
Honestly, it's videos like this that make me like him more!
Pretty sure he would preffer having Tea with u xD. But yea I know what u mean. I'm not much of a Podcast listener (of any kind or CZcamsr) but everyonce in a while the guys put up one like this one n I listen to it just to see what I'm missing behind the scenes.
we love the crew so if you ever are all busy just let the crew due things
That’s a good idea if any of them are busy just add the crew or any of their friends into the videos in fact I wouldn’t mind if they are all busy just put others into the video 😅
Ending The Trypod with “have a good-ass week” is so much more impactful than their previous ending line.
It’s like, thank you, I WILL have a good-ass week!
How to do the live plog without renting a theatre idea:
You make it a ticketed event but the meet up place is a park or something. The way you make sure people are only there who paid is by having people sign in and get a wristband and one of those tour guide headsets so they can hear everything while following you guys so you can go for a hike or wander a park and everyone can always hear you guys.
Just an idea.
This makes me think of Improv Everywhere, west coast version.
I like the Lives because there is no way my butt can travel to them to attend. it’s a dream though
yes but also make it accessible for disabled folks who can't be hiking and such! like go on an accessible hiking trail!
This made me think of those Improv Everywhere meetups from like 13 years ago. They were so fun to watch
Reminds me of ghost tours. We all get wristbands so you know who is actually part of the tour
Guys, not sure if anybody from the team reads these comments, but I have to say that both Marissa and Jonni where so good as hosts during the live, really funny and charming. I especially liked seeing Jonni in a more confident position. So far he usually takes on extreme challenges that seemed to be destined for disaster and I get that thats kinda the try guys brand. But I really wish he at least sometimes did some things he could really shine in, its such a pleasure to watch.
YESSS!!! I saw Marissa in Phoning It In and KNEW she had something special. She was so charismatic and charming! And Jonny has this down to earth personality much like Rosanna where they are SUCH phenomenal bakers but are so incredibly humble about it. It makes it so incredibly endearing.
20:29
Zach: "it felt like we've been in a catch up mode all year" ("catch up" sounds like "ketchup")
Keith: "we want to be in mustard mode"
Hahaha nice Keith 😂
No regular listener will be surprised by the pod opening with fart ventilation.
I know these videos don’t have the audiences, but I’d love more puppeteering rank court videos! They’re some of my favorites and I’m glad to hear Keith really enjoys doing those
Ride or die-er here ❤ I’m glad the guys feel more secure as a company after what sounds like a very stressful year. The theme park video this week was so fun and felt so quintessential try guys vlog style. I could and have keep re-watching it, it was such a treat.
Man this podcast clarifies the changes so well and I am ELATED about the direction- nothing but me cheering in my car while listening to this
As a flight attendant, I would love to work the flight Keith tries all the food 😁😁
I’d love to see some of their great judges like Johnny Cakes and Rosanna Pansino prefect some recipes from ‘Without a Recipe’. Like, take some of the Try Guys really brilliant ideas and make them gourmet…
live try pod idea have miles make fancy coffee on the stage while y’all are talking
I would LOVE a segment with Barista Bonsignore
Talking about ETM on a flight, y'all could also test the idea on Amtrak! Probably more feasible since you can also get a whole private room, and they have pretty sizeable menus depending on the train. The Pacific Surfliner is a beautiful trip!
the phoning it in episode w johnny & jimmy (eclairs & black fortress cake) is quite literally my go-to happy video when i feel at my worst. you truly did make incredible things this year.
i love the diversity of what you’re doing & heading into. i’m so proud to watch your company grow beyond your 3 names. your narrative of surviving day to day resonates with how i’ve been feeling as an individual for a long time - and i’m sure is true for so many others in these really difficult times of pandemic, layoffs, severe inflation, etc. thank you for being real with us & holding us as your guiding light ❤
You guys should absolutely do eat the menu airplanes edition, but I feel like everyone would love it if yall just did videos where you review first class flights period. I loveeeee those videos, and I think what’s missing from that kind of video is the comedy, and yall could make it really funny
For some reason I cried when they talked about Eugene stepping up more when he had originally planned to step back. He really wanted to be there for his friends and the fans ❤
"Disturb the wealthy" is the merch we need
I personally loved the Johnny cakes videos you guys made while you were scrambling.
him and rosanna are always a treat
I'm still hoping that the mystery event would be The Try Guys will be in Korea next year! Eugene and YB as the tour guides
I need a whole video of zach and his wardrobe and telling us where to purchase it ❤😂🎉
Yeah an update of their wardrobe
I might be able to guess where the Cheesecake factory sweatshirt came from.
I'm constantly googling for the crew necks and jackets he wears and I can never find them!
@@janacardullo5194 Try using Google lens.
I really enjoy the episodes where you guys talk behind the scenes stuff. It's a wonderful peak behind the curtain and it makes me appreciate the other stuff even more. Your team does a phenomenal job and despite the hurdles of last year, you guys have done some amazing things. 2024 is gonna be great for your team!
I'm so excited to have been a fan since 10 years ago and I love that y'all are still killing it ❤
I didnt realize how many obstacles you guys went through! I mean we knew because of Zachs stay in the hospital and Becky's birth story, but I didnt realize how much it affected the team. Honestly, thank you for still going strong despite everything!
I love the idea of following someone in their profession. Maybe an interview with firefighters and their training 🤔
Michelle Kare has some really amazing videos where she does exactly that. No shade just recommending her vids
@janacardullo5194 Cool, I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the rec!
I absolutely do want to watch Eugene debate with a puppet! Other people are laaaame 😂
I loved Hidden Talent Show this year - the “are you bear people” moment is probably my favorite try moment this year
I love your honesty about what's been going on it's a nice change. Really love all the new "characters" on the channel, especially Jonny and not just in the food-based videos. Would love to see Zach do more stuff like that creepy clown motel video I feel like he's in his element in that format. Would like Keith to visit food markets I'm not sure how big those are in LA as I'm in Europe so those are really big on the weekend. If you (touch wood) run out of videos because a chaotic thing happens, a day in the life of different regulars we see might be nice as I read the comments and Reddit and people are curious as to what people actually do. Looking forward to candid competition returning with Miles. Here's to 2024!
I LOVED the Clown motel and the skydiving videos! The positive journalism angle was awesome.
Rank Court and Guess the Try were both SO entertaining to me. Rank Court was SO funny and Keith did such a good job! What's wrong with people?! haha.
I just find rank court to be too much yelling and arguing haha
As a medical MJ user I can’t wait for more High Shows with Zach, they make me laugh but also into me into new strains.
New viewer/listener here (like literally started watching 5 days ago), I obviously had heard about you guys but I didn’t really know much until I saw Zach on a Dr. Mike video. I just have to say I love your content from the last year or so (that’s mostly what I’ve watched so far). I think you guys have done an amazing job this last year and I can’t wait to watch more!
Jared is always fabulous
The period pain episode was wonderfully done - especially as others did similar and crashed and burned in comparison.
Eugene looking after the guys as babies was also pure comedy gold.
Being honest, I really love the combo of Keith, Zach, Kwesi, and Johnny! Since Eugene can’t film videos as much, more with those four would be great to see.
Ok but why not combine all of the ideas: plog on a plane, you buy tickets for THE ENTIRE PLANE, audience members can buy a ticket from yall to join the flight, Keith does eat the menu and rotates through everyone. This way you aren't bothering random people and it would be talking the audience on a journey with you.
The Denver Saga tryplog that was suggested at the end ABSOLUTELY MUST HAPPEN (if the Toll household is up for it of course)!
I am feeling super excited and hopeful about this era thanks to how the Try team are treating the audience with such a high degree of transparency, honesty, and thoughtfulness. I think what Zach said especially about the 'try' series feels so observant and on-point, but I know you guys will continue to adapt and grow as the waves of all that's happened over the last year settles. I've been a fan since day one and I plan on being here for as long as I can 💚💙💜
59:20 This is hilarious
Zach: Maybe we would have to BUY THE PLANE
Keith: You'd be surprised what $10 would solve
Can I just say, I didn't see it as a "oh crap we need something NOW" video, and the dance video was one of my favorites this year. I would love to see that video developed into a fuller fledged idea in the coming year. You could even throw back to that video with a "this is where our skills were 6 months to a year ago. Let's take class again now and see if it's any easier or more comfortable for us." Then you could add that part 2/3 of practicing for a week or attending more classes for a month and then having some big performance at the end.
My brain automatically went to Willie Nelson when discussing Smoke Show.
It's so great that they keep giving as this info about the behind the scenes. It's transparent, honest and trustbuilding. Them offering all those insights even makes us viewers reevaluate our judgements of previous things. It creates a special bond between creators-audience, in a way that makes us care more about them, and them have a less tight rope to walk on when things don't go as well as desired. It's a bold but paying off move. Thanks, guys!
The look on Keith's face when Rainie called Seth Rogen hot
Rainie with the peoples questions 👏🏼👏🏼 thank you miss ma’am
How about trains or cruise ship food instead? Eating in Airplane is hard. Or maybe trying Military food and rating them. Or different exotic fruits? But regardless we love all your videos! We thank you guys for still being here with us. I never missed un upload straight for 3 years now. Thanks for all the effort of the try team! ❤
I love the airplane eat the menu idea! Also I love both companion content and your more produced series. Watch them for different moods/times of day
Change is a good thing sometimes. Proud of you guys for taking the step grow alongside your audience. Can’t wait to see what yall do next 🤍🤍
Zach caring about the viewers so much and everything he does for second try makes him the goat
I want more fashion videos e.g try on different fashion culture wear and also without training episodes. LOVE the work you guys do so much!
I relate a lot to what Zach said about feeling like the art we create only counts if it's some significant magnum award-winning opus. I used to think I'd "make it" as a narrative designer once I landed a job at a studio creating big story-driven open-world titles. I ended up taking a different route. I write for phone games now, and I absolutely love it. I may not be making a serious story, but I'm giving someone a moment of brevity during their day and hopefully a chuckle or two from my puns. The first time I saw someone post about my game highlighting a fun reference I made was amazing--too know my goofy bit of humor made someone happy enough to post about it is just...wow. I appreciate all of the effort the guys here do to give us a moment of joy. These videos and the plog are my go to media at the end of the day because I know they'll make me smile. What they've created is incredibly valuable and I'm glad they recognize that :)
I LOVE knowing all that went on and when. It gives me even bigger appreciation for what you do.
Seeing the version of Zack that cares about the business so much is the best version of Zack. It's quite nice.
This video was so good. I loooove behind the scenes Zach and Keith
God I hope Keith actually does Eat The Menu on airplanes first class and invites randoms to eat with him 😂😂😂
This would cost a lot of money but would be so worth it 😁
Keith & Zach end up on a no-fly list. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm a pilot with a major US airline, and I think the idea of eating the menu on an airplane would be awesome! I have a few ideas that would help make this video series become a reality. First off, at least at my airline, I believe we serve premium first class meals on any flight that's over 1,000 miles (maybe 1250), so you wouldn't necessarily have to do a full coast to coast flight to enjoy a full menu. That being said, I think it would be really interesting if one of you tried the premium first class meals, the everyday snack boxes that anyone can buy, and then the complimentary snacks like the chips and almonds. Also, to avoid any kind of disturbance with other passengers nearby, you can always look into flying a route at a certain time with the least amount of passengers. I've worked several flights over the past couple months where we only had 60 passengers on a plane that can hold about 200. You would have lots of flexibility to move around, potentially have some guests in the row with you, and not bother other people. This is a really cool idea, and I hope you guys can make it work! I'm not for certain, but reaching out to a marketing or a public outreach department may help. I'm so excited for what you guys have to offer this next year. Best of luck!
Love all of the new content you are creating and the people you have on. It would be great to see some of your staff participate
One of the special events is for sure the premiere of that short film Zach made
love the inside baseball of it all, hearing more about the behind the scenes stuff and what you guys really care about has definitely taken me from a casual viewer to a ride or die
the try guys are only channel where I always come back every couple of months when I drift back to other stuff. I have been watching them since the buzzfeed days. and I have always came back to their videos. Love you guys and I have been thoroughly enjoying the new additions.
This was the best move that you guys could’ve ever made I think, between Content and the new personalities and characters that we get to love that’s a part of your team.
I love seeing how much you guys have grown and will continue to grow. I hope to see you guys travel and have more experiences to share with us all.
The lives are wonderful! :) I really love this format and these vids are such a joy!
Okay, you guys are amazing! So excited for what's to come and will watch with lots of enthusiasm and joy! I never really comment on anything, but I feel SO incredibly led to share my thoughts because it was mentioned so much on this epidsode. Smoke Show is so amazing! 😂 I literally was "jumping-out-of-my-seat" excited for this show to become something long-lasting, and it is seriously dumb that it became demonitized! Zach, if you want to do more of this, I will definitely watch it, and would love to support you in this branch of videos any way I can. Honestly and sincerely mean it!
This episode is one of the best podcast episodes you guys have done. I think all three of you did an excellent job. I really enjoyed getting to understand the production aspects of what you guys do.
So excited for some new merch!! I have been wondering about the merch for a while.
This was an excellent episode! Thank you for breaking things down for us like that, it's really cool to gain insight into what you've all dealt with, how you've overcome it and what you are creatively working towards. Looking forward to next year 🥳
Really appreciate this episode providing insight to what's in store for the future. It shows how much they really care about their fans and content 🎉
Can’t wait to see what y’all do next year because I had a great time this year! I thought the content was great and had no idea y’all weren’t making what you dream of. It’ll be so great!
My plans were interrupted and changed and stopped (to the point of me off work indefinitely) so this is so relatable and strangely soothing to hear this discussion
I had someone cut in front of me at a Starbucks drive thru that had a side entrance and I was pissed… until I got to the front to pay and they had paid for my stuff too. Anger instantly gone.
i love the company breakdown eps, it definitely makes me feel more connected to know the surface level ins and outs!
The jackbox live was so fun! I’m so excited to continue to see the whole Try crew adventures! 💜
I hope they still “try” stuff, i love those and they’re nostalgic
Have you watched the Try Guys Smosh roast? Jackie makes exactly this point
i'm the longtime fan whose sleepy in bed while watching this video because my chronic pain is so bad and you are comforting to watch, so thank you for the content! it helps a lot, love you guys!
I know theyre not referring to Eugene Meets Cute Animals as one of the throw away ones lol i adore them all ❤❤😂😂 i also feel like i gravitate toward the other one offs like the dancing & the clown video just them getting to be more authentic is sooo fun to watch ❤❤ the multiple parks in 1 day is my new chaotic goofy comfort vid love ya'll soo much!!
I really love the "hang out show vibe" as Keith was saying, of theme park episodes, or just the idea of Keith going and experiences something, or experiencing all of something, like maybe experiencing the ambiance of every local small business coffee shop in 24 hours kind of video. It's a big wish fulfilment opportunity for me when my social anxiety gets bad and I can't go outside, I still get the energy of going outside by watching Keith go to an exciting busy place.
I’ve been watching y’all since the beginning and I’m so excited to see what’s next!
I would love to see a team Without a recipe. Try guys vs Try Wives
