- In this episode, Brie and Adri try to get to the bottom of WHY everyone has lost their collective minds about Bo Burnham's 'Inside.'
Is it just because it's really good? Are we emotionally invested in him as a person? We take a deep dive into the Bo Burnham Expanded Universe with his latest Netflix special. We discuss Schrödinger Mental Breakdown, spicy Bo and Hozier parallels, "Bo Burnham coming out of the well to shame mankind," and the good ole authenticity-in-art debate.
This is our first time doing a video version of our podcast! Let us know what you think down in the comments.

"I didn't know there was a Bo Burnham expanded universe" made me laugh. (Also my experience finding out about the end of Make Happy too.)
Loved hearing you talk about this! Especially the meta way White Woman's Instagram ties into the entire special... "I think there's a lot of truth to what we perform" is a great line. So is "creative cicada". :D
Thank you so much for this comment! I feel like a lot of us rewatching some of his old interviews and watching old performances are realizing how deep the Bo Burnham Expanded Universe really is. And glad you support our Creative Cicada observation, we kind of can't wait to see what other weird thing he's going to do next. -- Brie
I think everyone lost their minds over this is mainly just because it was so, SO good. And then on top of that to find out he did this all on his own. Meaning he not only wrote it and performed it but he did all the camera and scene set-up, lighting set-up, audio recording and mixing, and then editing it all together. That's incredible. There are usually entire teams of people to do each one of those processes. The fact he did all that AND it turned out so awesomely good is so impressive...to me anyways.
Good podcast you two. Keep it up.
It may just be as simple as that! He honestly knocked it out of the park in every single way. I can't think of a single weak part of it. Thank you so much for watching! - Brie
He has 3 Emmy's as of right now!
We love that for him! Forever going to write his name now as "Emmy award winner, Bo Burnham...." - BRIE
Fingers crossed for number 4 next week!
I don't know that it says about me but almost every day for 2 months (at least every other day) I've searched "Bo Burnham reaction" on CZcams. There's no doubt the special had an impact on me.
Honestly, same. Thats why we wanted to do this episode! Its really sticking in there. - BRIE
You are not alone in that. Everyone seems to be on a Bo bender.
Me too
I think it went way over your heads or atleast the people that you associate with this so called backlash but it doesn't matter if he said anything right or wrong authentic or inauthentic it's comedy
